"Oh before we go, tomorrow we're going to the hot springs, and it'll be _'s first time, so i pursuaded Hatori to let me take you guys!" Momiji waved goodbye, shouting that we were going to the hotsprings, Haru simply waved his hand before turning his back and leaving.

"Oh! _ let's go pack right now!" Tohru took hold of my hand.

then i realised.

i'm still in Kyo's clothes, and thanks to the fire, i've only got my school uniform...

"today everyone, i need you to get dressed and ready to go because we are going to go shopping!" ugh, it's the sing song voice of shigure again...

"but i don't have anything to wear!" why did i suddenly feel self conscious?

"that's why we're going shopping!" Shigure said, somehow, i didn't trust him.

"Then why do we all gotta go?" Kyo snapped.

"Well, unless you'd rather stay and let _ and i go shopping...all alone...just the two of us...alone..."

Shigure got the reaction he wanted from Kyo, it looked like one of those moments when where there was a temperature gage at the side and you could see the temp go up until-

"FINE, I'LL COME WITH YOU, YOU DAMN PERVERT!" Kyo stomped upstairs to go get dressed, Yuki following shortly after wards.

"Oh, now that i think about it, i think theres a sundress that might fit you in my draw somewhere, the weathers going to be nice today so you can wear it if you want?" Tohru smiled, i nodded and she grabbed my hand yet again and pulled me upstairs to her room.

*small time skip brought to you by Momiji's singing skills :D*

i slowly walked down the stairs, the light yellow sun dress flowing to just above my knee, i must admit it was kinda pretty, but i've never been the type to wear these things, it had a lighter shade of yellow bow on the front just below the coller of the top of the dress, with slightly poofy short sleeves(think OHSHC girl uniformes, only prettier and not as poofy)

"_ you look amazing! what do you think Kyo?" Tohru looked over to Kyo, who looked over to me walking down the stairs, i saw him look away, a slight pink tint on his face.

"Well, are you 4 ready to go?" Shigure asked. we all nodded and left for the mall.

"oh, what about this _?" Tohru picked out a light pink coloured long sleeved jumper, dark blue denim jeans and a beret styled beige/light pink coloured hat.(the picture on the factfile)

"it looks really nice, i'll try it on." after trying those clothes and buying another 3 bags of clothes, i was heading through the mall to catch up with the others when i man came up to me.

"Excuse me, are you Hana's daughter, _ _?" he asked, i noticed he was holding an ornate box, with spiral carvings etched into the wood.

i nodded and the man breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your mother wanted me to give you this, it was found within the wreckage of your old house, luckily untouched by the fire, she wanted to give it to you that day, so here." he handed me the box.

i looked inside and saw a velvet cover, on the cover was a small opal crystal, a translucent yet opeque white colour, i kept looking at it, feeling entranced by it's simple beauty.

"there you are _, come on we're heading home, what's that?" Kyo came up and noticed the box.

"this man gave it to me-" i looked and saw that the man that was there a second ago had left.

"thats strange..." I looked over to Kyo, who just shrugged.

we started heading back, shigure was talking to yuki and tohru, i was ambling along with kyo right at the back.

"so why are you scared of thunder and lightning?" of all things for Kyo to talk about, he chooses this?

"um..why do you want to know?" i averted his gaze, looking at the floor, which seemed much more interesting right now.

"Because i've never seen anyone so terrified of something before." we were almost at the house when Kyo pulled me to the side quickly.

"And i don't want to see anyone so afraid of something again." he looked left to see if the others, where gone, then he quickly kissed me on the cheek.

my cheeks heated up to the maximum.

"Come on we should head back." Kyo started walking, leaving me in a bit of a daze, but i could see that he was also going red aswell.

i've never seen Kyo like this before...i quite like it.

so that was chapter number 8!ok so i'm very sorry again if Kyo doesn't act right to you right now, but you would act different when you like someone right?i'm not sure when the next time i'll be updating but hopefully soon.i hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and i can't wait to hear what you think!

i do not own the characters or fruits basket.
