[[Loves here....Haru forgot to mention that this RP is exclusively for me and her. *snuggles Haru* OMGILOVEYOURNAME!!! XD]]
“Why have you been seen with Yuki so often? Talk! We demand you tell us a detailed account!” Shouted four girls. Tohru Honda froze as she was taking her bag out of her locker, “We- we’re not exactly together...” She added hastily, “It is just a coincidence!” She felt her face grow warm and tried to look honest. A girl with short blonde hair stood with her face close to Tohru’s, “The ‘Prince’ should never be found even near you. Oh, and don’t start to think that he likes you or anything like that either!” The yelling attracted a few people, and a teacher down the hall said, “No shouting in the hallways, please.”
“Get you and the rest of your cronies to go and dream far away from here. Get a life!” A tall girl with long blonde hair said, beside a girl with black braids and dark eyes. They stood close to Tohru, in front of the girls who were bullying her. The girls slumped away while muttering to themselves. Words such as “Yankee” and “threatening us” could be heard as they disappeared around a corner.
“Thank you so much, Hanajima-chan and Arisa-chan,” Tohru said, relieved that she was no longer being scrutinized. Arisa then asked lightly, “Would you like us to walk you home?” Tohru replied quickly, “No thank you... I will be fine, but thanks...”
After nodding, Arisa and Hanajima left Tohru alone in the girl’s locker room. Gathering her things, she set off for the Sohma residence. Walking slowly, she passed the spot where she had slept and lived in a tent – where she had first learned the truth about the Sohma family.
She thought about how she had met Kyo and how much it hurt when she thought he hated her; how Yuki had fought Kyo (and almost destroyed the house in the process); and how she had fallen into Kyo’s arms. She had looked toward him, embarrassed for accidentally embracing him, and gasped as she found that he had turned into a cat (which caused her to fall back into Shigure and Yuki – changing them into a dog and a cat). Soon afterward, Shigure-san told Tohru about the Sohma’s and how they are forever cursed with the vengeful spirits of the Chinese Zodiac. These memories made her feel very fortunate just to have met all the wonderful Sohma’s, such as Momiji. He talked fluently between Japanese and German, and Tohru discovered he was the rabbit when he voluntarily hugged her. She smiled, remembering when she had thought that Hatsuharu was an old man because of his white hair... He turned out to be the ox and one year younger than Yuki, Kyo, and her. Shigure was so kind... He had done so much for her. Kagura loved Kyo so much that she became violent and was the boar. Hatori had turned out to have his own secrets... When he had transformed, instead of commenting on him being a dragonfish, Tohru asked, “Fresh or saltwater?” After learning the secret of the family, she was beyond relief to find that she was not to have her memories suppressed.
She looked up, seeing the large white house she had been living in since she was graciously invited to stay. She felt cheerful, thinking about her first New Year at the Sohma’s... Kyo and Yuki had stayed with her. Seeing them smile brightened each of her days. A tear had slipped down her face without realizing it.

Yuki sat in his secret base, checking to see if any of the strawberries he had planted for Tohru were ready. As he looked through the strawberries he heard footsteps coming down the path. Looking over he saw Tohru's figure walking by through the bushes.
Standing, he brushed the dirt off his pants and walked out to the road. He followed her quietly, watching her as she looked down at the ground as she walked. When he came up beside her he saw a few small tears slip down her cheeks.
"Why are you crying, Honda-san?" he asked quietly as he reached out to gently wipe the tears away. "Has someone upset you? Was it Kyo? I'll kill that damn cat if he..." Yuki sighed and shook his head before looking back at Tohru. "Come on Honda-san. Let's go up to the house."

"I'm alright, Yuki-chan. Thank you for worrying though. I hope that I did not disturb you from something," Tohru said, kindness filling her voice. As Yuki mentioned Kyo having to do with her tears she said, "No, I was just thinking about all the time I have spent here... I have many memories that I will cherish forever. And I will never truly be able to repay you and everyone else for everything that has happened. I am truly grateful." Her eyes glowed as she said this. After starting to walk toward Sohma house, she looked at Yuki.
Tohru was startled as someone spoke beside her, and she almost fell backward in surprise as Haru said, "Hello, Tohru-san, Yuki. I haven't seen you in quite a long time. So I dropped by."
As another voice joined in, she turned her head to see Kyo blocking their path to the house, "Why the hell are you here? Not going to challenge me to something if you know you'll lose?" He turned to Yuki, resentment showing on his face, "And where have you been?" He mumbled "damn rat" under his breath.

Yuki sighed and shook his head as Kyo yelled about Haru challenging him. "You know you stupid cat...not everything revolves around you. And if you must know...I was busy." he said as he glared at Kyo then looked at Haru. "So what brings you here anyway? And please don't say to challenge the stupid cat." he said, casting another glare at Kyo.
The phone suddenly rang and was picked up by Shigure. It jolted a memory from Yuki. "Oh, Honda-san, before I forget. Mitzuki called for you earlier. She said to call her back on her cell phone."

"Don’t call me stupid! You make me so pissed-" Kyo stopped short as the phone could be heard ringing. Tohru replied to Yuki, "Oh, thank you! May I use the phone?"
(Inside the Sohma residence.)
Tohru arrived back in a few minutes. She said happily, "Mitzuki wanted to come over for a few hours to study. She should be here shortly." After a few seconds she added, "You don’t mind, do you? I asked Shigure-chan and he said that it would be perfectly fine for her to stay the night."
Kyo loomed over Shigure, saying loudly, "You- GET OUT!"
Haru seemed deep in thought for a moment, and turned to Yuki, "I think that I will stay for a while. Of course, if its of no trouble."

"Oh Kyo...you're so mean!" Shigure cried as he left the room.
Yuki sighed and shook his head once again at the exchange, running his hand through his hair. 'Damn pervert.' he thought. He looked over at Haru as he spoke, asking if it was alright if he stayed for a while. "I don't have a problem with you staying Haru." he said, seeing a slight smile in Haru's eyes at his answer and wondering why. "Honda-san, would you like to help me get some snacks ready for when Mitzuki arrives?" he asked, and headed into the kitchen with Tohru.
About twenty minutes later there was a loud bang on the door, then the sound of the door opening and closing real fast. A moment later, Mitzuki came sliding into the room throwing her arms open and shouting, "I'm here!" before falling back onto the couch with a grin.

Tohru smiled, "Yes, of course!" They entered the kitchen to prepare something for when Mitzuki arrived. She looked at Yuki asking, "What should we make, Yuki-kun?"
Haru turned his head sharply as the door opened. He did not move from his slanted position against the wall, but his eyes stared toward Mitzuki as she sat on the large couch.
Kyo started to remark, "The damn cow has been flustered the whole twenty minutes that it took for you-"
"Shut the hell up!" Hatsuharu said, his face reddening slightly. He stood, only a few inches away from Kyo.
Tohru entered, carrying a large tray of vegetables and dip. Some cups filled with a sweet smelling liquid were also balancing on the silver platter. A gasp left Tohru as she tripped over the edge of the couch, falling face first toward the floor. Kyo moved forward, catching her in his arms. In a cloud of smoke, an orange cat sat beside Tohru. She sighed, picking him up, "Thank you, Kyo-kun. I’m sorry...."

Mitzuki laughed a little at the exchange between Kyo and Haru, finding them both to be amusing when being cranky with each other. Haru more so.
She looked up as Tohru walked in and was about to stand and help her with the tray when she suddenly tripped on the couch. Yuki luckily caught the tray, though Kyo fared slightly worse as he jumped to save Tohru, only to be turned into a cat.
"Ohhh...kitty-Kyo!" Mitzuki said with a grin as she picked up the orange cat and scratched him behind the ears.
"You did it again you stupid cat." Yuki said as he set the tray of veggies on the table, casting a glare at Kyo. "You know that you're not supposed to change in front of anyone except Tohru."
"Oh don't worry about it Yuki." Mitzuki said as Kyo struggled to get out of her grasp. "I really don't care. I wish I could see what the rest of you turn into though."

Kyo became irritated with Yuki's comment, "You assume that I did this on purpose? If she hadn't been so damn clumsy-" He then jumped off of Mitzukis lap, landing on the floor. Staring coldly at Yuki, his fur stood on end. He then turned his head toward Mitzuki, "And you should leave right now. Another girl in this house will not solve anything. If it wasn't for you staying here.. Since the day that you arrived did you notice that a lot of the Sohma family have been gathering? This is NOT a coincidence. Akito is going to come here again, and when that happens it will be your fault. For all I fucking care, I hope that your memories will be erased by Hitori! I don't know what you expected to see when you arrived at your dear penpals home, but this is not a place full of fun and bright memories." Silence spread throughout the room. An awkward moment settled over when Kyo suddenly transformed back into his human body.
Haru moved closer to Mitzuki, lightly placing one hand over her eyes. After Kyo had regathered his clothes, he noticed Tohru had fallen against the wall, "Weren't you prepared this time? I swear, you-"
Haru's fist tightened as he had listened to Kyo's ranting. He struck without warning, and Kyo crashed through the door leading outside. Tohru gasped. Black Hatsuharu? "Get up now, you kitten! Or are you going to run away with your tail between your legs? Eh? Too weak to attack back?" Climbing over the rubble of the broken door, Haru stood waiting in a fighting stance.

Jillian`s hands trembled slightly in her lap as she sat anxiously in her seat; her light brown eyes swiveled to the round window on her right side. Staring into the abyss of darkness, she was lost in the sight for several seconds. A few stars dotted the sky as wisps of clouds were pushed aside. A woman`s voice startled her, "Miss, would you like anything?" Turning, she answered pleasantly, "No thank you. I`m fine." The lady in a dark blue uniform returned to walking down the large aisle and tending to the passengers onboard.
All sense of reality was shaken. Only mere hours ago she had been back home - in New Hampshire. As her hands shook she felt many of her pamphlets glide to the floor. She sighed, picking them up. A few were letters containing information on the student exchange program she was participating in. As she had boarded the airplane an hour ago, she had known that fear would consume her when she left the United States. She knew that this was aroused by her ignorance of the country she was being sent to, and the thought of going somewhere she vowed to go to had once made her overjoyed, but now.. She had barely scratched the surface of Japanese culture, and she was ashamed of this. Learning the language had been a most difficult task to master; every few words she wrote were incorrect or not whole. She foresaw many embarrassing moments thanks to her lack of knowledge. Another thought flooded her mind. I will not see my family until next year..
At a sudden momentary turbulence Jillian clutched the side of her seat with both hands. She took a deep breath, realizing how nervous she already was. Putting her face in her palms, she silently mumbled Japanese words and phrases. As her eyelids became heavy she drifted to sleep.
Sitting on the plush bed in the Japanese hotel, she was intrigued. She blew a strand of her silky dark brown hair from her face, placing her bags gently on the floor. Upon entering, she was dismayed to find that school had started the day before. She stared at the ceiling, thinking of how to ease her worries.
Exiting the building, she made a mental note to remember how to locate it. She was outfitted in dark colored flares (jeans) and a red tank top. Walking into streets with few people, she entered a wooded area. She found herself utterly lost within minutes. She cursed and looked nervously at her surroundings. Trees besieged her on all sides. Aimlessly continuing forward, she stumbled onto a path. Far from relieved, she had not the smallest hint as to where the road led. After a short period of time, Jillian spotted a home. Quickening her pace, she reluctantly knocked on the front door.

Mitzuki frowned as she listened to Kyo. He stood there in his cat form, hair raised as he spouted insults at her, telling her that him changing was his fault. That if this Akito person arrived, it would be her fault. And then, the clincher, he wished for her memories to be erased. That angered her. They were hers, and she wouldn't give them away without a fight.
"Now you..." she started, but was cut off as there was a soft pop as Kyo turned human, and felt the cold touch of Hatsuharu's hand cover her eyes. Her anger instantly dissipated at the touch, and she smiled slightly. She flushed slightly, her skin turning pink as her heart sped up a bit. She was about to turn to look at him when she heard Kyo start up again. A moment later Haru had jumped up, kicking Kyo and sending him crashing through the door. She watched as Haru walked over the broken door, daring Kyo to fight him back.
"Haru...don't." Mitzuki said as she stood and ran out to him, gently placing a hand on his arm and pulling him back. "Don't do this Haru...it's nothing to fight over."
She then looked over at Kyo, her eyes narrowing slightly as she walked over to him. "As for you...don't go blaming me for your problems. They're no one's cause but your own. Ever since I came here Kyo I've been nothing but nice to you, yet for some reason you're just rude to me. I understand that you have trouble getting close to people should they find out about your curse...but I know. And I'm ok with it. And I promised that I wouldn't tell anyone! And did ypu ever thing that there are no fun and bright memories here for you because all you do is skulk around being all bloody depressed? As for my memories..." she said, glaring at him, "They're MINE! And no one is going to take them away from me without a fight...do you hear me?"
Without thinking, her hand reeled back and her fist flew forth to contact with Kyo's jaw. He fell to the ground again as she suddenly jumped, pain racing up hir wrist as she cradled her hand against her chest. "Ow crap...fuck...that hurts!!!"
Yuki watched the whole scene and sighed, shaking his head. While glad to see that both Haru and Mitzuki take a shot at Kyo, lord knows the stupid cat deserved it, all the drama was starting to tire him. Silently, he turned and walked out of the living room and was about to head up the stairs when there was a soft knock at the front door.
"Yuki...can you get that please?" he heard Shigure call. He was about to just head upstairs and ignore it there was a second knock. Curious as to who would show up after the sun had set, he went out and opened the door surprised to find a distraught young woman there.
"Can I help you?" he asked softly, smiling slightly.

As the door gently opened, Jillian was surprised to see someone who looked around her age. He had dark hair -almost a grey color. His purple eyes were full of care but also held unseen emotions as well. He seemed athletic, and she noted how beautiful he looked. Staring at the ground, she tried to brush away her feelings. She bowed to the seventeen year old, “My name is Jillian Johnson. I’m sorry to barge into your property like this... I seem to be quite lost.” Hearing other voices inside, it sounded as if a lot of people had gathered together.
Feeling the tug of Mitzuki, the expression on Hatsuharu’s his face lightened.
Kyo started to retort as Mitzuki spoke, but a fist smacked into his face. He fell to his knees onto the ground once again. Pain pulsed through his jaw, and he immediately sprang to his feet.
Tohru looked curiously toward the door. Her thoughts were stifled as she heard the sickening sound of Kyo once again falling to the ground. She stared at him, and rushed to his side. She blocked Haru and Mitzuki from reaching him. "Don’t touch him anymore. Please. I know that he said rude comments.. and he should not have said what he did... But he speaks this way... because.. because.." She stopped voicing her opinion, but stood beside Kyo.
Haru looked at him with disgust, "Why do you protect him when he speaks rudely to you as well? He deserves exactly what he got. " He looked at Mitzuki, seeing that when she had hit Kyo she had hurt herself as well. He tilted his head, "Are you alright?"

Yuki smiled slightly at the girl as she spoke. It was obvious that she had just learned his language, and he found it amusing. "Well...my name is Yuki Sohma. If you'd like, you can come in and we can help you out. If you're hungry we've got some snacks set up."
Mitzuki nodded at Haru as she hugged her wrist to her chest. "Yeah....fine. Nothing big..." she said, muttering an apology to Kyo, and turning to go inside. She hadn't know what came over her. She hadn't meant to punch him...and she certainly didn't want to. But something inside her snapped when he had said he wished her memory to be erased. It hurt her. All she wanted was to be his friend.
She winced as she turned her wrist a little, pain shooting up her arm. 'This is going to need ice...' she thought as she sat down.

Standing, Haru caught Mitzuki while she was in the hallway. He touched her arm gently, "You dont have to hide that you are in pain. Let me help." Retrieving ice and wrapping it in a cloth, he placed it on her hand. "This should help ease the swelling." His eyes glowed with concern for her.
Tohru seemed confused for a moment. She was saddened that Mitzuki looked hurt. Starting to follow her friend, an arm was extended to block her. Aayame spoke casually, "Let Hatsuharu handle this. It seems his feelings toward this girl have flourished. Whether this will end in tragedy or happiness is still unbenounced."
"What the hell? Did you just appear here? If you escorted yourself in, ESCORT OUT AS WELL!" Kyo was angry enough without Aayame added into the situation. He stalked angrily toward the front door.
Jillian smiled awkwardly and replied, "Thank you so much, Yuki," she thought for a few seconds, "Yuki-kun. I hope that I am not intruding if you are with friends." Her voice was quiet as she heard the many voices in the other room diminish after sudden yelling. She was bumped hard in the shoulder and fell backward against the wall. After regaining balance, she pushed herself upright.
Kyos eyes lingered over the new girl who had entered for only a brief time, and he spoke quietly so only Yuki could hear, "You... I cannot believe you would let another.... I will not be a part of this while you go expose yourselves to every female in Japan." The door slammed behind him.

Mitzuki shook her head, blushing slightly. "No Haru...I'm fine...really." when he touched her wrist though, pain shot up her arm again and she hissed. "Ow..." she said, pulling her arm away and hugging it to her chest again.
Hearing the voice of Ayame, Shigure came walking into the living room. "Ah, Ayame. I thought I heard your voice. What are you doing here?"
Yuki glared at Kyo as he left then turned to Jillian. "Don't mind him Jillian. He's just an asshole. And don't worry, I just have some family over. Come on in. I'll call a cab for you." he said as he stood aside to let her in.
