chapter 5
It has bee a week since you had admited your feeling to Kyo, but nothing has changed beween you two. It was as if you ahd never kissed him. At the moment you had began to worry that he had began to hat you, you ahd decided to begen making plans for the wedding, after all there wasn't much time, it was planed to take place this summer and that was only a few weeks away.
Sighing you got up and went into the kitchen. Kyo, Yuki, and Tohru were at school, since you were supposed to be at a prep school you had been withdrawn from thier school so now you were allways hom with Shigure.
"Hey what's wrong Shiwa, lately you've been looking sad and depressed?"
"It's nothing Shigure."
"If it's about the wedding I decided to have it pushed back for at least a year."
"Really, thak you Shigure, but it's not the reason I've bee like this."
"Does it have to do with liking a certen member of this family, Kyo maybe."
Looking up you knew it was no use lying to him, "Yep it is."
"Then why not just cancel the wedding?"
"i can't. Seph and Akito both forbid it, my mom tryied to do that with my father and was nearly beat to death even thought she was pregnant it me. It's like that with everyoutcast born into our family."
"Well then we'll just have to have a secret date for you and Kyo. I don't want you to seem sad on the wedding day."
"Shigure, thank you for understanding."
"Of course, now how will we do this, hm, oh how about if it was a group date. Like for instence. You and me and Kyo and Yuki all go out for a day of relaxation. Yes that would work. White day is coming up we could do it then."
"Shigure your a genous thank you. Oh that reminds me, I need to ask Tohru if she can help me make choclates for the two families."
"Why do that?"
"The outcasts do it in hopes of getting closer to the family and breaking the curs on all of us. At least taht is what mom told me when I was five."
"Allright she should be home in ten minutes let's try and mke some boxes or bags to put in all in, how much are you going to make?"
"Let's see, about thirty, some for each member and then for Tohru and her friends." You replied with a smile.
later that day
You had been working all day to finish up the choclates for the family. You had saved the choclat of Kyo's for last you wanted to make it perfect so he could see how much you cared. After talking with Shigure earlier you feeling a little bit mor confended about being with him with out the house finding out and stopping it.
Tohru understood how you felt and had agreed to help but only if you had helped her make rice balls for the hit or miss festavle at school, it was her way of including you in the events. It had been so much fun helping that you had forgotten all of your warries and were finaly having fun.
....
the next morning
Headed into the kitchen you seen that there was tones of rice balls all pact up and rady to take to the school but unfortunatly there was to many bags for only two people to carry so you offered to help since you had made no planes for the day.
Taking hold of one of the bags your hand brushed past Kyo's.
"Sorry I got these you don't need to help out anymore Shiwa."
"It's okay Kyo I want to." You replied and gave him a sweet smile, "plus I was thinking of checking out the rice ball stands anyway it seems like fun."
"Nah it's just going to be a bunch of people buying or selling rice balls not to fun if you ask me."
"Still it's better then sitting home alone, Shigure is trying to thnk of something to do for white day and has been going out alot the last day or two."
"Oh well then I guess you can come." Kyo said blushing a little.
"Um if you hadn't noticed we have allready walked three forths the way there." You laughed as you seen the school coming into veiw.
"Honestly Kyo you should pay more atention to what's going on and not who your talking to. I'm supprised you didn't run into anyting with how you were so into herher eyes like that." Yuki laughed along with you, "That's it your dead you damn rat!"
Leaving them to their little fight you went into the schools gym with your load of rice balls. Suddenly a young boy came over and offered to help yo. He had looked fumilier but when you went to ask him his name he was gone.
Shrugging you headd over to see the stand had been finished and Tohru was begening to set out the rice balls.
"Hey Tohru you want any help?"
"Oh Shiwa, that's allrightyou should take a look around."
"Ya, It looks like it's starting to get busy."
"Yuki! you look like a girl."
"Momiji you are not to go running off by yourself you understand."
"So that was you! Thanks for taking those rice balls for me."
"It was no problem."
"Nice to see you again Hitori."
"Yes it's good to see you to Shiwa."
"How do you now them Shiwa?"
"I met Momiji the day I met Akito an Hatori when I went to see my family."
You growled remembering that little event.
Holding back any feelings of hate for your family you went behind the curtian only to find Momiji trying to hug Tohru.
Suddenly he said something that caused Kyo to let go and allowed him to hug her.
"Oh crap!" Quickly grabing his cloths you shoved them into your bag and waved for Kyo and Tohru to follow.
Sneaking out with Mommiji in Tohrus arms you quickly went up onto the roof.
"There safe." You sighed.
"You are going to be grounded for one week." Hitori added.
"What I do? Tohru, Shiwa, their scaring me."
"You little brat, leave them alone it was your own damn falult."
"I'm very disapointed in you, we were only lucky Shiwa and Yuki were able to get us out of there."
"No prob, my cousin once transformed on stag during Romeo and Juliet, he was stupid enough to try and hug that girl infront of tones of people. Luckly I got the lighs before he changed, the stupid rat."
"Oh yes I allmost forgot something important Yuki, Kyo stand over there please.
"I want you both to give me a simple answer to this quiestion. What is the last letter of the alphebet?"
"Z," both rplied at the same time. Quickly Hitori snapped a picture of them.
"Akito wanted me to take a picture of you while I was here." He replied as he headed off.
Fallng over you couldn't help but laugh of course you were lucky that Kyo had chaced after Hitori, so he didn't hear you laugh at his misfortune.
Standing back up you seen Yuki thinking about something. "Yuki whtcha thinking about?"
"I was ust thinking about how you could tell Kyo the truth were as I can't even tell your cousin of my feelings."
"I thought so. I think you are only sccared because she is ingaged to Hitori, thats how I felled when it came to telling Kyo.
"I thought if I told him and Shigure found out he would tell Akito and I would be introuble for wanting to be with someone other then who hi saw fit for me."
"I guess, but I'm also afraid she dosn't like me the same way."
"Well I can find that out tomorrow, I planed on seeing her and hanging out."
"Thank you Shiwa, Kyo is lucky to have you."
"That's if he still likes me."
"Believe me he does. Right now he is just hidding it for your sake."
Sighing you gave Yuki a smile, "thanks Yuki you don't know how much that helps me feel better."
"Your welcome Shiwa, well we better get back to the sell I'm sure everyone is wondering were I ran off to."
Laughing you both went back insde and down to the convention.
Spotting Kyo you thought you should go talk to him, maybe you could hint to him a few of the plans Shigure had cooked up to help you two be together alone for a few hours on white day.
"Hey Kyo, you get that pic from Hitori?"
"No stupid idiot got away from me."
"That's to bad, but who kows maybe your luck will turn around in a few weeks (sorry messed p on the months when I wrote this it's still only december white day is in may X()
"Why?"
"Well for one Valentine day is coming up and I now at least one girl has been working on something special for you. Plus a few others have certian plans to get you two alone together some time soon after that."
"What are you talking about?" He shouted, then whispering so no one but you could here, "you know we can't be together alone on a date any were in this town or Akito will find out then Seph would do something terrable and I might loose you for good because of it."
"Don't worry Shigure is helping with that, he is having Momiji plan a trip for Tohru and me for thanks for the choclets we made everyone."
"You don't understand the problem about valentines day though, Kagura is always around me the whole day."
"That's why I'm giving your gift to Shigure and then after she leaves you two switch gifts. See no problem there."
"I hope you are right, oh sorry for treating you so coldly the last couple of days it hurt so much to do so, I just didn't want you to be in any danger because of me."
Laughing you gave him a quick peek on the cheek, "no problem there eiter, Now since Tohru is all alone selling the rice balls we made you should go help."
"Fine."
"Oh hello."
"Hey how much for these?"
"$12.49," (no slue if that is right or not if just came to mind)
"Okay, here you go."
"Thank you, don't forget your one free one Shiwa."
Taking four rice balls you decided that you should head home, Shigure should be home since it aws almost five.
The next day Hatori's place
"Thanks for showing me the way Shiwa, but why did yo ucmoe here?"
"Visit Towa, I wanted to catch p on some things and I have somthing to ask her."
"Oh allright. This place is so big!"
"You think this is big, one of these days I'm going to need to show you our estate." You laughed,
"Ours is to big on day I got losed goig to see Seph from my house."
"Really I never heard about that!"
Jumping you turned around, "Towa you scared me! But I'm glade to see you!"
"why what's up?"
"I just wanted to see you it's been a while."
"Oh hello again Miss Honda, hello again Shiwa, what brings you by?"
"Just came to visit with my cousin, don't mind do you?"
"Not at all, actually I would like to talk to miss Honda. So if you could follow me please miss Honda."
"Oh of course."
Waving bye to Tohru you followed Towa to a little pond. "So what do you really want?"
"Okay, I do want to catch up some time but manly I'm here cause I told a friend I would ask you something for them."
"So what is it?" She asked sounded bored.
"Well, do you like Yuki? And before you ask it's not Tohru and please anser me truthfully this boy really wants to know." You said stretching out the word boy for her.
"Well let's just say If I could have picked the person I had to marry it defently would have been Yuki. I mean he is way hot and kind and strong. But I am some what happy with Hitori only thing I don't like is seeing Akito practacly every day." Towa sighed.
Giving her a pat onthe back you replied, "well then why not." Stoping to a look around.
"Don't worry everyone is at the main house getting ready for the new years."
"good, why not do what me and Kyo are doing and that's secretly seeing each other."
"Easier said the done, you forget Yuki lives with you and Shigura and I live here with Hitori."
"Just say your coming to visit me."
"That could work, only problem it would only be ones a week and eventually I would have to marry Hitori."
"Yeah but at leasst you could be happy till that day comes. That's why Shigure is helping me and Kyo get sometime alone together on white day."
"Your so lucky Shigure is so nice, all Hitori cares about is work, work, work."
"Well maybe Aya an Shi-chan can get him to forget about work and thing about you one of these days."
"Thanks Shiwa, you know before all this happened we hated each other now now look at us it's like we have been friends forever."
"Ya now if only Kaaw would join in with us oh well."
"Hey let's head back I'm starved."
"Yeah me to. Hey maybe Tohru will fix us lunch she's a great cook!"
"What and I'm not?"
"Noo ephense but her cooking is way better!" You laughed as she led the way back to the house.
later that day
Laughing you and Towa sat back down, you had just finished up lunch and Shigure had come by, of course he had to let it slip about what animal in the Zodiac Hitori was, even though you had knkow from yoru faily get together. For revengs Hitori told you some realy umberising stoies about Shigure at the age of four till he was a teen.
Turning to Towa you whispered, "Told you Shi-chan could make Hitori forget about work for awhile."
"I'm just glade to see him smile. I've only seen it once and that's when he was informed about the enjagments of Sigure and Ayame."
"Trust me on this. I can tell he wants you to be happy. I mean cause he seems brighest and hapier when ever you are to."
"I never really noticed but that is true."
"What are you two whispering about over here?" Shigure asked pulling you to him.
"Oh nothing you need to worry about Shi-kun."
"Seems I have yet another thinkg against you to tell Aya about."
"He knows about it."
"I think we shold get going it's late and I got you back into the school this morning to. So you might want to get used to the course schedules again."
"That you so much, now I don't have to be bored while everone is gone all day!"
Waving you all headed out. Sighing you leaned against Shigure, you couldn't help it after todays events you were beyond tired.
"Here let me carry you so you don't fall over walking Shiwa."
"Thanks." You yawned as he icked you up bridle style and carried you home.
