Chapter I
Hello Honda-kun,
How are you doing? Well I hope. It's been too long since I've been able to write to you and for that, I am sorry. How are your classes going? What classes will you be taking this coming Spring? Fun classes I hope. Have you decided what you will do after graduation?
I would like, if it isn't too much trouble, to come to visit you this summer. I do miss your smiling face so. It would make me very happy to see the places you have been spending your time at.
I ran into Miss Uotani and Miss Hanajima the other day. They are looking well. I didn't have much time to speak to them as I was on my way to class, but they did ask me to say hi for them the next time I spoke to you. They miss you a lot. I know they would love to come visit you if they were able to.
Miss Honda, there is something that I very much would like to ask you. I do hope you approve of me coming to visit you this summer. I have missed you dearly. Honda-kun... Tohru... I love you.
Forever yours, Yuki Sohma
"I'm going to visit her this summer."
With a shimmer gleaming in his eyes and a smile threateningly tugging at the corner of his lips, Shigure slowly glanced up from his evening paper.
"How can you look at me like that? You know that I've wanted to visit her since she left Japan almost three years ago."
"I'm sure that you know this already Yuki, but apparently I have to remind you. Akito will not allow you leave Japan like she did."
"And apparently, Shigure, I have to remind you, that I really don't give a damn what Akito wants or doesn't want me to do. Besides that, Kyo was allowed to MOVE away with her. I don't see why I shouldn't be able to at least go visit her."
Shigure's brows furrowed slightly at this comment. "You know exactly why Akito allowed that to happen, and there's really no use in complaining about it now. At any rate, how do you plan to get there? You know it's not cheap to go out of the country. And before you even ask, no you ca—"
"I've been saving my own money."
"I see."
"I've even saved enough money to move away from this god-forsaken country if I so desired. However, as pleasant as that thought is, I couldn't do it. I just want to see her again. I just want to confirm the thoughts...the feelings... that I've had for these past years. You know this is something that I need to do...for her... but mostly for myself."
Finally, as a soft wind blew through the room, Shigure's eyes softened and the smile that was waiting crossed his face. "So, does Tohru know that you are wanting to visit her this summer? You know that you can't just show up unexpectedly!"
"Stupid Dog." After a moment's silence and a deep sigh, Yuki dropped to the cushion at his regular spot at the table and hunched over. "I sent a letter last week."
You know, I really do love her. Even after these long years that she's been away, I still love her. More than ever, but I couldn't ever tell her. Why? Why... couldn't I... ever... tell her?" Yuki's eyes glistened, wet with the promise of unshed tears.
With the standstill in the conversation, Shigure looked back down at his paper, deciding to keep his thoughts to himself... for once.
"I think we should order out for dinner. I truly don't feel like cooking. I'm going to my room for now. If you need anything else, save it till tomorrow." Only after another moment, did Yuki stand to leave the room.
[AN] This is my first fanfic. Heck, this is the first fictitious story I've ever thought about putting out for others to read. I hope you're enjoying it thus far, and will continue to read it.
