Chapter
21: “Return of spring.”
Tohru
slipped on her school shirt before begrudgingly looking at her school
shorts. After her fourth month came
around they decided she would need to where something else, and her school
sweatpants worked fine until spring finally came. So she went from sweatpants to shorts. She sighed as she began struggling into her shorts giving them the
fight of her life. She sat back on her
bed breathing heavily as she won the good fight. She sighed as she rubbed her hand over the spot Kyo used to
sleep. After the incident at the main
house they still tried sleeping together, but after the first few nights of
waking up to a poof of smoke or Kyo yelling about almost getting rolled over on
they decided it would be best to wait until after the baby. But it wasn’t any easier. ‘I’m almost there. In another two weeks I’ll be in my eight month!’ She hunched over as her stomach growled in
protest at her not going to breakfast yet.
She grabbed her bag and trudged down the stairs rubbing her sore back in
the process. She was still going to
work even against everyone’s wishes but Momiji’s father said if she could last
until the eighth month he could get her on some maternity leave. But school and work, she didn’t think she
could handle it much longer. That’s why
today was the day.
She
smiled as she greeted everyone sitting at the table and took a seat next to
Kyo. Her stomach growled again and she
blushed before digging in. She hated
giving up her cooking privileges but in the last two weeks she had to get up an
extra two hours early so she could cook, eat, and get ready for school and get
there on time. So Kyo had taken over since he was the only one who could really
cook decently. She stopped her
chopsticks halfway to her mouth before grimacing at the thing held between her
chopsticks.
“Tohru,
you need to eat some leeks, they’ll help with your backaches,” said Hatori
noticing her hesitation. It gave them
all a shock that around her fourth month she suddenly spit out her leeks at
dinner and said it just wasn’t edible. Which
Shigure had to comment on saying, “If we didn’t know who the father is by now,
we would now have our answer.” And
Shigure was repeatedly hit by an angry Kyo.
Tohru
sighed and tried nibbling on it but dropped the nasty greens that wanted to
kill her back on her plate. Hatori
looked displeased but decided to give it a rest. Tohru looked up at the clock before standing and rinsing her
plate in the sink. She came back to
grab her bag when Kyo stopped her.
“Hey
Tohru, where’re you going so early, school doesn’t start for another 45 minutes
and it only takes us about twenty to get there,” he asked pulling her a bit
closer.
“Oh
I’m soo sorry, I forgot to tell you.
I’m going in early to ask my teacher’s for the end of the semester
assignments and maybe a study guide.”
“So
you’re finally getting out of school?
You should have done that last month!”
He tried to control his anger but his voice was still agitated.
“I
know Kyo wanted me to last month, but I don’t think I would have been able to
do all that work and study for exams with only two weeks to do it. But now since we’re so close to the end I
think since I understand most of it I have a better chance.” She saw his look soften but he still looked
agitated. “Please don’t be mad Kyo,”
she said getting as close as possible without him transforming. “I know you’re worried about me, but we’ll
be fine,” she said reassuringly. It
worked as he looked away in defeat. She
leaned up and kissed him on the cheek before turning to leave.
“Wait,
I’ll come with you,” he said and rapidly ate the rest of his food and grabbed
his bag.
“You
shouldn’t eat so fast, you’ll get an upset stomach,” she said worried.
“I’ll
be fine,” he said opening the door for her as she called a goodbye to
everyone. “How are you doing with
practice? Did you find out when
Kazuma-san will be giving you the test?”
“Yeah,
he wants it to be in about three weeks before it gets really hot and could mess
up my concentration. Man I hope I don’t
screw this up.”
“Don’t
worry,” she said taking his hand and giving it a squeeze. “Jus do your best, you’ll be fine.”
“I
know I just wish I had someone to spar with.
And not Yuki!”
“But
why?”
“Well
I know if I practice with him he’ll be holding himself back to help me, making
me feel, well inferior,” he said agitated again. “I know he’s better then me but it still doesn’t help when he has
to show it.”
“Isn’t
there anyone else?”
“Haru
is too ify to try and spar with and I don’t wanna ask for father’s help, I know
that sounds stupid, but it would feel like I’m cheating, I’m suppose to be
training to pass his test.”
“Why
not Kagura?”
“Because
she’d go nuts and kill me,” he said nonchalantly.
“But
she hasn’t done that in almost a year.
Come on the only reason she did that before was because she loved
you. She has Sohma-san now.”
“But
wouldn’t that be awkward?”
“Only
if you let it be. I’m not going to let
it be awkward when Sohma-san helps me study.”
“What?!”
“Well
he is the vice president,” she said trying to quickly reason with and calm him
down. “He knows the material better
then anyone else and he helped me with my make-up exams that one time and his
study guides really helped.” She saw
the look of disappointment that crossed his face. “I would have asked Kyo!
But I know you’re busy with your training and well, I-“ She stopped herself and Kyo looked over to
see her blushing.
“Tohru?”
“Well,
that is, I-I mean…”
“Just
spit it out,” he yelled trying to get a strait answer out of her.
“Well,
I-if left alone with Kyo, I don’t think I would be able to study,” she said her
blush deepening. Kyo picking up a blush
of his own as he finally understood what she was trying to say.
“Ah,
we’re here,” she said breaking the silence.
They made their way to the principal’s office. “Thank you for coming with me, it may be a while so you might
want to go to class so you don’t have to stand and wait she said.” She quickly leaned up and gave him a quick
kiss before turning to go to the office.
“Kagura,
you know you don’t have to walk with me,” Yuki said looking around him as if
something was going to jump out at him.
“But
I like walking with you Yun-kun,” she said latching onto his arm. “She also looked around as if someone was
following but she was looking around with a death glare daring anyone to try
something. She came up to the gate with
Yuki and handed him the lunch. She
wasn’t a great cook, but she still tried and it was better then his own
cooking.
“Thank
you Kagura-chan,” he said and quickly kissed her even though he knew people
were probably watching. He had gone
from prince of the school to scandal of the school as his ex-fanclub quickly
spread the news of his relationship around the school. They didn’t really hate him, but almost all
of them had given up on him…almost. He
turned and waved goodbye before disappearing inside the school. Almost as soon as he was inside Kagura went
on the defense and for good reason as a rock was flung at her and she dodged as
he opponent came out of the tree she was hiding in and came at her. Kagura stood her ground as her opponent
approached and quickly ducked the first attack which would have been a fist to
her face if she wouldn’t have ducked and delivered her own blow to the stomach
sending the attacker back a few feet but the attack continued.
Kagura
went to dodge an attack that was at her feet but was thrown off guard as the
leg instead of sweeping under her went strait up and caught her in the stomach
sending her back but she leapt back to her feet not one to be out done as she
caught her breath. She desided she was
done playing defense and went on the offense with a punch going to her
opponents face but as her opponent went to dodge she pulled her punch and swept
down low to knock the person flat on their back. Both took up fighting positions and Kagura was ready to launch
another attack when the school chimes rang signaling class would start soon.
Both
girls fell out of fighting positions and stared each other down.
“This
battle is far from over Kagura Sohma,” called the female voice.
“This
battle should have been over long ago when you lost Motoko,” she said dropping
her last name, which she knew annoyed the girl greatly.
“’Til
tomorrow,” she called before turning and walking to the school.
“’Til
tomorrow,” Kagura said softly to herself before turning and walking back to
Shigure’s.
Tohru
left the principal’s office just as the chimes sounded and was surprised to see
Kyo standing against the wall with his eyes closed. The semi-light drifting through the windows made this hair look
like fire. Tohru blushed before shaking
head to clear it and approaching him.
“Yo,”
he said catching her off guard. “How’d
it go,” he asked pushing away from the wall.
“It
went ok, I need to have our teacher sign this slip saying she understands and
then give her a day to get my homework together. So tomorrow will be my last day.” Her voice caught, as her eyes got watery.
“Hey
Tohru, it’s ok. I mean you’re not
leaving that much earlier, you’d only have a few more weeks left anyway,” he
said trying to comfort her.
“I
know but it never really hit me until now that this is my last year, after this
I’m on my own. I may never see some of
my friends again.”
“It’s
ok,” he said patting her on the back but wishing he could hold her. “I mean you know you’ll keep in touch with
Uo and Hana, and then you know you can never get rid of Sohma’s. You won’t be alone; you’ll have all of your
friends. Just because you can’t see
them all everyday doesn’t mean that they’re not your friends or that they don’t
care. And I’ll never leave you.” She wiped her eyes as she looked up to catch
a glimpse of his smile.
“Thank
you Kyo,” she said.
“Hey
Tohru,” called Uo running up to meet her friend. “You guys late too?”
“Late,”
they both shouted and realized class had started and ran after the blond.
“So
tomorrow is your last day,” asked Hana calmly as she took a bit of her rice
ball.
“Yeah,
it just kind of snuck up on me,” said Tohru taking a bite of her shrimp.
“It’s
gonna be too boring without you around,” said Uo. “And then Kyo will be complaining all day and no one will get
anything done.”
“What
the hell did you just say,” Kyo yelled almost breaking his chopsticks.
“See
what I mean,” said Uo. Tohru giggled at
her friend’s antics and was glad that she had such great friends.
“Prince
Yuki,” came an all too familiar voice to the group. “How are you today,” said Motoko sliding up to sit next to
Yuki.
“Fine
I guess,” he said sweat dropping as this was becoming a daily occurrence.
“I
was just wondering, I made too much for lunch again, and wondered if you’d like
some.”
“Thanks
but I have some lunch already,” he said showing him the lunch Kagura had made
him. ‘Damn she found me out,’ Motoko
thought as she saw her rival’s new strategy.
“Yes
but look at that poor quality,” she said pointing to a misshapen rice
ball. “I’m sure that my lunch is much
better,” she said trying again.
“Actually
I helped make those,” he said pointing to the rice balls.
“Well
a man is supposed to be the protector not the one who sits over a stove cooking
all day. Why not try some of mine?”
“Actually
Kyo can cook quite well,” said Yuki surprising the fan club president. “And he’s training to be a teacher at a
dojo.” ‘One, two, three strikes your
out,’ thought Uo with a smirk as she watched the young woman slink off in
defeat. Tohru giggled as she watched
on, knowing she would miss this.
“Thanks
for walking me home guys,” she said to her small group of friends who walked
her home and stayed for a while and were now taking their leave. She wasn’t so surprised Uo and Hana would
want to walk her home but when Momiji and Haru wanted to she thought something
was up. But it seems they just wanted
to spend some time with her. It was
still a bit creepy as the two Sohma’s turned to leave and she thought about
them returning to the main house. Akito
was still at it. After the incident
with Kyo on the roof Akito had called all of the current residents of Shigure’s
house to his chambers and suggested she stay at the main house. Tohru was afraid she would be living there
until Kyo and Hatori both spoke up on her behalf and when it looked like they
were fighting a loosing battle Shigure spoke up sealing the deal and keeping
her at his house, at least for the time being.
But he had called her two other times and tried a few other times to
just drop by and ask them to reconsider.
And just as she thought Akito went back to shunning Kyo after she had
turned down his offer. But Kyo didn’t
seem to be effected by it, so she tried not to let it get to her.
Uo
and Hana hung back to speak to Tohru.
“Tohru, we wanted to know, are we still on, you know, for seeing your
mother in a few weeks?”
“Of
course! It wouldn’t be the same without
you!”
“I’m
sure your mother is really happy for you,” said Hana with a slight smile on her
face.
“Thank
you. That means a lot to me.”
“You’re
going to be a great mom too, ya know,” said Uo.
“Yeah,”
said Tohru rubbing her stomach.
“Well, see
ya tomorrow,” called Uo as she and Hana stepped off the porch and waved. Tohru waved back and felt like all of her
troubles were leaving as well.
