Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ A Wolfs' Cry ❯ Chapter 5

The next morning started off as a nice quiet morning and then… everyone woke up. "Stupid rat! You're getting on my nerves!" Yuki and Kyo were in the dinning room waiting for the delivery man to bring breakfast Shigure was reading the paper and Trinity well… even with her ankle sprained she insisted to clean the house and she wouldn't take no for an answer. "Foolish cat you'll never beat me as long as you live so get a life or go occupy your self with a ball of yarn." Yuki smiled at Trinity who finally decided to sit down with a cup of tea in her hands. "I wonder what Jackie's doing? She hasn't said a word to me or even made a sound… I hope she's ok and not mad at me or something." Shigure looked towards the door and then back at Trinity, "Don't worry about her she's fine. She's probably deep in her thoughts or maybe even sleeping." "Ha! Sleeping, Jackie? Never seen her do that before." Trinity laughed. Kyo and Yuki stopped arguing and sat down at the table looking curiously at Trinity. "She doesn't sleep?" said Yuki. "Dose she do anything besides jumping down peoples throats?" Kyo said silently. "Hey! That's mean you just have to get to know her to understand why she's like that, and besides your not one to talk. I herd you're a real hot head yourself." Trinity pointed out. Kyo looked taken by surprised by the statement and then looked away from Trinity. Yuki was laughing in the background and Shigure was just smiling. "What are you laughing at Yuki? If you got something to say, say it!" Kyo sneered. "The delivery man is funning really late I wonder what's keeping him?" Shigure pointed out. "Delivery man for what?" Trinity asked. "Oh for breakfast." Shigure smiled but his grin was short lasting when Trinity stood up so fast she almost fell over. "You guys have delivery for breakfast!? You know that you guys are going to kill your selves with that kind of diet! I won't allow it I am going to cook for you guys from now on! No one will eat take out as long as I'm here!" Trinity said triumphantly and marched towards the kitchen as gracefully as she could. Yuki looked at the guys who both had a shocked expression on their faces and went to go help Trinity around in the kitchen.

Shigure looked at Kyo who was starting to fidget, "Why don't you go see if our delivery man came yet… or maybe you can check up on that Hot-head out side? Maybe this time around you can talk and get to know her instead of freezing in place? Oh yah and see if her injuries got taken care of maybe she'll let you get close enough to see." Kyo looked at Shigure and then the door, "And maybe she'll rip my head off in the process." He sneered. "Well since you don't use it much it wont be such a loss right?" Shigure said. "Ha, ha very funny why don't you go chase your tail or something you dumb dog." With that said Kyo got up and left the dinning room to the door. "Ok guys breakfast is ready! Come and eat!" Trinity called. Kyo opened the door ready to get his head yelled off but to his surprise Jackie was just sitting there, staring straight ahead at nothing… with her legs bent up in to her arms as if she were hugging them for comfort. Maybe she could be talked to? Thought Kyo, "What are you looking at?" Said Jackie in a calm distant voice. Funny since it didn't even seem she knew he was there. Kyo blushed a little and tried to force words out of his mouth any words, "Uh… Breakfast is ready so why don't you come and eat?" Jackie looked at Kyo as if finally recognizing who she was talking to, "I'm not hungry!" she turned back to face the opposite direction. Kyo stopped himself from going back inside in defeat and said, "Are you scared of me?" What kind of question was that!? Kyo yelled at himself. But it caught Jackie's attention is that what he wanted? Jackie stood up and went to stand face to face with him, "Me scared of you? What kind of question is that? I'm not scared of nothing! You got that nothing!" Shigure, Yuki and Trinity were standing in the doorway when Trinity decided to come into the conversation. "Nothing? Yah right I know what your scared of your scared of ghosts, vampires, goblins, umm… what else was there?" "Trinity!!" Kyo smiled slyly. "Well at least none of those things are real I mean wear wolves can be pretty scary… Are you scared of were wolves to?" Jackie looked away from the others and decided to sit back down. "Huh, did I say something wrong?" Trinity was about to answer but Jackie beat her to it. "Kyo are you scared of me?" she was looking at him now with something in her eyes what was it? Was it fear? Pain? Sorrow? Or is she waiting for him to say something, to judge her? Kyo couldn't look away from those eyes like if he looked away he'd fall on his face of into… into them. "What do you mean? I'm not… I'm not scared of you why should I be?" "Okay! If we don't hurry up and eat the food will get cold and no one wants that right lets go eat!" Trinity said. That snapped Kyo out of whatever trance Jackie had on him. Jackie looked away and stayed where she was. "Jackie come on your eating if you like it or not!" With that Kyo grabbed Jackie's arm and practically dragged her in to the dinning room were he sat her down next to him. "Kyo! What part of I'm not hungry don't you get!" snarled Jackie. "Not, maybe I often get that part confused." Kyo smiled triumphantly as if he won something, which made Jackie want to hurt him even more than when he asked her if she was scared of him! The nerve of that guy thinking he of all people can boss her around like this. "Just because I'm here doesn't mean I have to eat what ever Trinity has cooked up!" Kyo didn't answer all he did was smile the whole time. "Gosh what's with you!? Your really starting to piss me off you know that?!" Kyo just sat there and still smiled and to add to that so was Shigure who was also sitting at the table waiting for breakfast. Finally before Jackie can get any more irritated Trinity and Yuki brought out food and bowls. Trinity served the food and gave the last of it to Jackie. She took one good look at it and then poked at it with her spoon. "What the heck is this crap!?" Jackie yelled. Trinity just stared at her and said, "It's my secret recipe that Yuki helped me make so now he know how to make it if he likes it." Jackie looked at the stuff in her bowl and pushed it away. "I will not eat that pile of crap you call food! It looks like sh" Smack! * All the guys jumped in place at the unexpected sound. But ended up realizing that Trinity slapped Jackie across the face before she can finish her sentence. "Danget Jackie! You know that saying don't judge a book by its' cover?! Well same goes to food!" Jackie smiled at the fact that Trinity would even be brave enough to touch her but she made sure none of those emotions showed, except her anger of course. "You cooked a book? No wonder why it taste like paper." Jackie smirked and Trinity was practically shaking of rage. "NO Danget! I didn't cook a book you moron! It's a saying!" The guys just looked back and forth drinking their tea and eating their food as if watching the white ball in a ping-pong game. "Moron? You got the balls to call me a moron? When you're the one who got us into this mess in the first place? Miss spoiled princess!" Trinity stood up as if to throw something at her, "Spoiled princess? If I recall I thought it was you that got the hunters to shoot at us remember? All the guy did was still my purse and run! I could have gotten another one I mean it didn't have any money in it! But no! You had to chase him down and beat him to nearly an inch of his life! Do you remember?!" Jackie finally stood up, "I remember but I only did what I did for seventeen thousand years." Jackie said in a calm tone of voice. "What you killed people?!" Trinity said with anger showing on her face. "Listen I…" This was the first time ever that Jackie looked away from an argument and Trinity sat backed down as if she was going to faint and face as pail as new fallen snow. "You killed people? Tell me the truth… Did you?" Jackie started for the door until something caught her arm. Kyo just happened to be the one to stop her. "Listen, just sit down and… Just sit down you don't have to eat anything I just want you there… I don't know why so don't ask ok?" Yuki looked at Kyo for a moment and then to Shigure. Shigure just sat there and ate his food calmly reading the paper as if nothing happened. "And all this time I thought I knew the worst about you…" Trinity said with a shaky voice. Yuki covered her hand with his and then continued eating.
