Monday

~Tohru's P.O.V-

It's Monday.

Hatori-san was very nice to me when I visited him. So were the other Sohma's I met. They were nice. I especially liked Hatori-san's sister, Kagura. She was sweet, and kind, and full of energy. All though, she was a bit scary at times. . .

Haru, Kyo-kun, and Sohma-san are acting very weird today.

From the expressions and silence yesterday when I first met the Sohma family, I realized that the three of them working together was amazing. The three of them had a feud that extended from when they were just children, to now. And they put it behind them in a flash.

Arisa and Saki flanked me on either side as we walked through the halls to class. The three Sohma's were walking with Yuki and Kyo in front talking in hushed whispers, plotting so plainly in the open, and Haru behind us glaring everyone spitless.

I blushed in embarrassment.

"Ah. . .Kyo-kun? Sohma-san? Why are you walking in front of me?"

They both turned to me, and the identical looks I received from the two of them made me say. "Never mind. . ." I waved my hands in front of me as the two nodded and continued walking and probably glaring because no one was looking back at us, and the hall was silent.

We arrived at class without incident, if that was what they were expecting. Kyo and Yuki sat with Haru, Arisa, Saki, and I in the back.

Yuki's Fan Club (what else would I call them?) glared back at me, and I watched as Michelle- the girl I met with on my first day here- leaned forward, glanced back at me, and started whispering to them.

She made it plain what she was talking about. She wasn't all that quiet about it either. ". . .fucker her too! It seems that she can't get enough cock- Sohma or otherwise. I mean, she practically begged the four guys to screw her in the alley!"

I blushed red as I heard what she said about me. Oh Kami. . .

Haru's hand squeezed mine as I saw Arisa and Saki get up. The teacher wasn't in class yet, neither were al the students.

Arisa walked over calmly, a metal pipe in hand. Michelle snorted as the taller girl neared.

"What do you want, Butch?" She sneered.

Arisa's eyes bore into hers as she reached down and grabbed Michelle's collar, and lifted her in the air.

Michelle's face paled before coloring as she realized Arisa's strength. The rest of the girls screamed as the boys 'ooh'ed. "Put me down, Butch!"

"Shut your mouth bitch!" Michelle paled in fear when she saw the pipe in Arisa's hand.

I just sat there before I processed the situation. Then I got up. "Put her down, Arisa!"

Arisa looked over at me. "She's talking trash about you, and you don't think she deserves to get hit!?"

Not for me. I thought. It wasn't right to hit someone because of what they said about you. But for my friends.

I sighed. "It doesn't matter. Gossiping only belittles the person's reputation in the eyes of those who don't know them. And those people who believe the lies are not people I care to befriend." I told Arisa. "So put her down."

Arisa held Michelle up and was looking at me. Michelle was losing oxygen, her face turning colors as Arisa looked at me.

After an eternity, or so it seemed, Arisa threw Michelle down- hard-onto her desk, and other people's.

"Keep your mouth shut, and your legs closed Tuna."

Arisa joined us in the back of the class with Saki, just as the teacher strolled in through the door.

"Sensei! Sensei!" Michelle cried out suddenly. "That Yankee in the back threatened my life! She brutally harassed me too! Look! Look!" She showed her neck with it's fading pink marks that were darkening to blue. "And Honda-san egged her on!"

Her friends agreed, but the rest of the class was silent.

~Yuki's P.O.V-

"Sensei!" I raised my hand in the back. "What she says is plainly incorrect."

Michelle gaped back at us. "You're just saying that because your little sex toy will get in trouble too!" She whispered to me. "Discard her, and take me instead. . ."

I rolled my eyes at her. "Shut up, Tuna." I whispered back at her. "Michelle did it to herself. Arisa never left her seat."

Everyone in the room was silent as I swept my gaze across the room. But it obviously wasn't me they noticed at first, they noticed the other four sitting by Tohru, and then me. They all turned around and agreed.

I turned to Kyo who was looking at me and I grinned.

We got this class in the bag.

I sat with my usual friends who were buzzing with questions.

"Why did you defend that lez?"

"What the fuck is wrong with you?"
"Why didn't you let them get kicked out?"

"Are you crazy!? We almost had her and her friends GONE!!!"

I titled my eyebrow at them. "Since when are my actions any concern of yours?" I asked them.

They rolled their eyes at me. "Yuki," The leader said. Her name was Hayashi. "We made you. You listen to us. Hello!? Do you think you could be popular without us?"

I tilted my head. "Excuse me?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing!

Hayashi sighed, as if I should have known this. "Look Yuki, we can replace you if we want. You're a good lapdog, but we can always find someone better. I mean, you're ruining your reputation, AND ours because you hang around with that slut, Tohru, ad her major loser friends. We tell you jump, you don't say 'why' you ask 'how high?' Got it?"

I laughed. This was hilarious! Oh my God! And these were my friends?

"Oh my God. Yuki? Hello?" Hayashi's voice said.

I looked at her. "Look, Hayashi." I said simply grinning. "You can think whatever you want then. You made me? Whatever made you think that? I never was your friend for popularity. Sorry, but I have other friends that like me for me. Bye!"

Yeah, that was gay, but it shut them up rather nicely.

I left them to panic, and I knew the others were glaring at Hayashi.

That speech can work on very few people. I thought. And I'm not one of them.

Pride made me stand up straighter, but realization hit me as I realized, If it wasn't for Tohru, I would have melted into their hands . . .

~White Haru's P.O.V-

The sky was blue as Tohru and I sat alone in the shade of the tree, far away from prying eyes that mocked her.

Tohru smiled and lay on the grass, staring up at clouds that floated by.

She really was beautiful. At first sight, she would be plain as can be, but when she smiles- her whole face lights up. Her eyes twinkle and her cheeks glow radiantly. It's the kindness within her.

I just stared at her as her eyes glazed over, and a small smile tilted her lips. I felt myself smiling knowing that even in her 'ruined' state, she was happy.

Our relationship as of late hadn't changed. She's still my best friend, and I am hers. Even if Uo and Arisa have known her forever, they can't see her.

"You know Haru," She said, turning to look at me. "You are truly sweet."

I blushed. She had said something that I have never been told in my life.

"What makes you say that?" I heard nothing else. As if by magic, the moment she speaks to me, the school vanishes, and we're in our own paradise. The tree blows as the grass beneath us sways.

She smiles at me and says, "My mother always told me that there are angels. They may not know it, nor do they seem like it, but angels they are. She told me that an angel can be the very devil, but all it takes is the warmth within his heart and he is truly an angel."

I was puzzled by what she said, but her words were true. Even if I didn't know what they meant, I knew that deep within her heart, she knew, and she understood.

"Then Tohru," I said grinning. "You are sweet as well."

She tilted her head.

"You are my angel."

The two of us just sat there staring at each other. Her cheeks glowing pink as my heart raced.

"Tohru!" I heard a familiar sneer shatter whatever was between us.

I glared up at the person, and blackness enveloped me.

~Kyo's P.O.V-

I was sitting on the roof, watching Arisa do detention in the yard below me when I heard something from the wind. I turned my head and saw from beneath the tree that Haru and two others were arguing. I could tell it was heating up, as the hairs on the back of my neck started to stand.

I also saw three other girls coming up from behind, and obviously taunting Tohru as the defenseless girl just seemed smiled to them and said something. The girls reactions were different; huffy, angry, and offended.

One of them picked up Tohru suddenly, and slammed her against the tree, just as Haru turned around and was grabbed by the two boys that had to struggle to hold him back.

"Yankee!" I leapt from the rooftop and landed gracefully on the floor just as Arisa joined me to run and aid Tohru and Haru.

But by the time we got there, Yuki- that damn rat- had already freed Haru, and Saki was fighting alongside Tohru who was freed.

Yuki and Haru had the two boys down for the count. One, I recognized as my friend. Another was some jack off I didn't know. I could practically smell the lust as it permeated the air around the two on the ground.

The girls were done with their part, the bruised faces and blood was enough to make Haru want to drag the broken plus Tohru who argued with him.

Yuki placed a hand on his brother's shoulder. "Haru-" He started.

"I need you and the other three to stay," Haru said looking at the collection of us that were conscious as he grabbed Tohru's hand. "I don't care what they say, but I'm going to try and get the Sohma Council to get us all out of this school."

"They won't permit it. They specifically wanted us to go here," I said crossing my arms in front of me. "It's hell. That's why they wanted us to come in the first place." I shrugged.

Yuki glanced over at me with cool eyes. "That's true. If we want out it's an all boys school."

"But what about Tohru?" Saki spoke quietly. Her eyes locked with Yuki's.

"I can't go back," Tohru said clenching Haru's hand tighter and biting her lower lip as it quivered.

"Why not?" Haru asked. "Why can't you go back where you started?"

Tohru blinked back tears as they misted her eyes, but she couldn't stop herself from turning into Haru's chest- carefully, as if she knew our secret. . .- and sobbing.

Arisa looked up at me, and I was lost in her eyes of memory before her words registered in my head, and shock was born.

"Tohru's guardian doesn't want the daughter of a whore."

A/N: This is a really angsty fic. Trust me. But the ending will be fluff and more fluff. I think the chapter will turn to Hentai on the next one. . .
