Hello! ^^ So, I went to the beach, for da weekend. I went to stay w/ my cousins' 4rm NEW JERSY! They came to visit me! Well, actually no. They came here to Miami on vacation… oh, well! Anyhoo, I never noticed how many stuck up people live here! Like seriously! I went 2 this hotel, and so… lots of rude think-their-all-that people there… yeah…

Kyo walked outside. He had been set free, all of the jujinshi had. And yet, it didn't feel any different. Yuki and him still fought, and Shigure was as perverted as ever. Although, it did feel good, to be able to walk around without worrying about someone bumping into you. Yuki had been acting different. He had not been very surprised to learn that Kyo and Tohru were going to prom together. And, he had seemed to giving up trying to win Tohru's love. Which of course, was a very good thing… at least from were Kyo was standing.
`I still have to find a drummer…' thought Kyo in annoyance. He had written thirteen songs, thinking that no one had written anything. So, he had been surprised when each of them had walked in with 5 sheets of music, complete with lyrics. The only thing left for him to do, was find a drummer. With a heavy sigh, he set out to post flyers all around town.
 
By the time that he got back from posting up all the flyers, it was noon. He opened the door to the house, to be greeted by none other than Ayame.
“Kyonkichi! Hello! How very nice to see you! Oh, you smell good!” exclaimed Ayame happily as he embraced Kyo.
“Get the hell off of me! And don't smell me! And stop calling me that!” shouted Kyo angrily as he threw Ayame to the floor.
“Oh, Kyo! You're home.” Said an excited voice from behind Kyo. Kyo turned slowly, to see Tohru dressed in a short maid's outfit.
“Perfect!” squealed Ayame as he pulled her into a hug. Kyo's jaw dropped.
“Get off of her you creep!” he shouted at Ayame.
“B-but… now that we're free from the curse, we can hug her all we want Kyo. And besides, Tohru looks so cute in this outfit that I can't help but hug her. You now Kyo… you should try it sometime… it's really very nice!” finished Ayame cheerfully. Kyo looked at Tohru who had a deep red blush on her face, she turned away quickly. Kyo quickly ripped Ayame's arms off of her.
“Stop that!” he snapped at Ayame who was pleading Tohru to hug him. Tohru giggled happily. The red on her cheeks was now fading.
“Kyo,” she said amidst a giggle, “Ayame is right though, he won't transform if he hugs me. And, I really don't mind…” Ayame nodded frantically in agreement. Kyo glared at Ayame who stopped nodding.
“You're just jealous because I got to hug her.” Sang Ayame. Kyo began to blush.
“Yeah, well… I could hug her too, if I wanted.”
“Oh, really… then are you saying that Tohru isn't good enough for you? Is that it? Well then, you shouldn't mind if I hug her!” Ayame reached his arm toward Tohru, but Kyo quickly picked up Tohru bridal- style, and led her upstairs. He placed her on her bed gently, and nodded towards her clothes that lay in a pile on her bed.
“Get dressed.” He said as he walked out the door, and closed it behind him. He walked downstairs once again, to find Shigure and Ayame deep in conversation.
“And then he picked her up.” Declared Ayame happily.
“Well, I personally think that they make a good couple. But what do you think Aaya?” asked Shigure. `Wait a second! Their gossiping about Tohru and me!' said Kyo to himself.
“Well, I'm rutting for Yuki. But, it seems that he's a bit… distracted at the moment, to notice Tohru.” Continued Ayame.
“Whatever do you mean?” asked Shigure.
“Well, ever since I introduced him to that girl, Ichigo.” Said Ayame with a grin on his face.
“You mean Ichigo, the Ichigo? The one I went out with?” asked Shigure.
“Why of course! Anyhow, he's been visiting her everyday at the shop. And he even talked seriously to me about it! He said that he thinks that he likes her, more than our little flower. He says that he is confused. So I told him, I told him: “ Yuki! Follow you're heart!” and then you know what?”
“What?” asked Shigure, he too was grinning.
“He hit me. He hit me!” Kyo decided it was time to cut in.
“Where the hell were you hiding?” he asked Shigure coldly.
“Kyo, you're so cold! You left Tohru by herself, and after getting her hopes up!” whined Shigure.
“What the hell is that supposed to mean?!” Kyo never got an answer, because at that moment, Tohru came down. She was smiling warmly when she told Kyo:
“Kyo, I'm going to Ayame's shop.” Kyo stared at her in bewilderment.
“Um… WHY?” he asked.
“Why, to shop for her prom dress of course!” declared Ayame brightly. “Would you like to come Kyo?” he asked. Kyo blushed. “Well, it was just a thought… I mean, you are her date!” Kyo gave a shrug and trudged after Ayame. Shigure snickered evilly. `It's so much fun to mess with him!' thought Shigure as he skipped ahead of Kyo.
 
When they got to the shop, they found it empty. Except for a young girl with bright green knee length hair. She greeted Ayame with a hug. Kyo noticed that there was pair of drumsticks hanging loosely in the pocket of her outfit. She was dressed, in a knee length black dress. Around her waist, was a green sash.
“Oh, this is Sonora. She plays the drums, and she is also a designer.” Said Ayame warmly. Kyo's jaw dropped. `She plays the drums.' He repeated to himself. He grabbed Ayame by the collar and carried him behind a shelf.
“AHHHHHH! NO! KYO PLEASE! I WASN'T TEASING YOU! NOOOOOOOO!”
Suddenly, Ayame's head popped out from behind the shelf. There was a large bump on his head.
“S-Sonora, why don't you play for Kyo's band? Hmm? It would save me- I mean him, a lot of trouble… and… pain.” Kyo hit his head. And Ayame whimpered. Sonora giggled and shrugged.
“Sure…” she said between a fit of giggles. “You'll have to tell me about it later, that is… unless you want Aaya to change Tohru's clothes…” she glanced at Kyo's face, his look was enough to tell her that he did not trust Ayame. “Ok, ok. I get it. Come on Tohru, we don't want to keep your boyfriend waiting…”
“She's not my girlfriend!” murmured Kyo.
“Right…” answered Sonora sarcastically. Kyo watched as Tohru and Sonora disappeared behind some blue curtains. Ayame turned to face Kyo.
“Well, seeing as you have nothing better to do than judge people, I'm leaving.” He said with a hurt look on his face.
“But… isn't this YOUR store? You can't just leave.” Answered Kyo cynically.
“Oh! So now you're trying to boss me around. Woe is me!” screamed Ayame dramatically. Kyo turned and went to sit down on a small stool by a table. He picked up one of the magazines on the table. Slowly, he flipped it open.
“WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!” he screamed in terror. He flung the magazine at Shigure who opened it and gasped.
“Wow Aaya… I didn't know you were gay.”
“I'm not. That's something that one of my customers left here.” Sighed Ayame as he grabbed the magazine and placed it back on the table. “Besides Shigure, I only have eyes for you.”
“Oh Aaya.”
“CUT IT OUT!”
“Hey guys?”
“HUH?” they all turned to face Sonora. She stepped out of the way to reveal a very shy looking Tohru. Kyo gasped, in all of the time he had been living with Tohru, he had never seen her looking more beautiful.
“Wow!” squealed Shigure excitedly. “Tohru, you look like a doll! A beautiful flower! An elegant princess! A hot-“
“Stop it.” Said Kyo absentmindedly. He was still looking at Tohru though. He was taking in every single detail. She wore a long, strapless, pink dress.
“Oh, Sonora! You've out done yourself this time!” gasped Ayame. “Although, she does need a few accessories.”
“Yes, and I'm not done with the dress yet.”
“Whatever do you mean? It's beautiful…” he replied taking in every detail.
“But, it seems like there's something missing.” She replied.
“I've got just the thing!” squeaked Ayame. “Just you wait Tohru! The prom is only in a week. But by then, we'll have all the details ready. And, we'll even fix up your hair…” Ayame began describing all of the things he and Sonora would do to Tohru; to make sure she was ready. “… All that!” he announced finally.
“H-how much is it all?” she asked quietly.
“How much? HOW MUCH! Tohru, Tohru, Tohru! Have you learned nothing?! You cannot put a price on beauty!” he climbed onto the table. “And because you are so beautiful yourself, it will cost you… NOTHJING!” he declared.
“Oh, Aaya! You're so dramatic!” said Shigure-pulling Ayame off of the table.
“Hahahaha! Oh, gure! You spoil me!” said Ayame as he embraced Shigure.
“I think I'm gonna be sick.” Gagged Kyo. Tohru giggled. Kyo turned to find her standing next to him.
“T-Tohru,”
“Yes?” she asked with a bright smile on her face.
“You really are beautiful.” He breathed. She gasped, a red shade creeping onto her face again.
“T-thank you.” she whispered.

Fluffs: ok! And now…. (Dadadadadadadadadadadadaaaaaaaaaaaaa) I will explain something!
 
Shii: what're u going to explain?
 
Fluffs: -takes out chalkboard and chalk- well, this was a question-or rather a comment from Sarah: `First off, great story.  I love it.  But I would like to point out that Kureno is part of the zodiac; he's the rooster, so Uo can't hug him.  Terribly sorry, but there you are.  Ciao.' First off, I would like to say THANK YOU! I am glad that u like my story! And I really do love that u reviewed, and I really also am really glad that u wrote this, cuz I didn't know how 2 right this in the story. Now I can explain the truth 2 u all!
 
Shii: what truth? I mean, she really is quite right! Kureno is part of the zodiac, and he CAN'T hug Uo, or anybody for that manner. And of course, he is the rooster… why DID u write that in your story then?
 
Fluffs: DO NOT QUESTION MY METHODS DAMMIT! -Hits Shigure on the head-
 
Shii: oww! WAHHH! -Starts to cry-
 
Aaya: there, there. -Pats Shigure-
 
Fluffs: now then. Kureno IS part of the zodiac, and he IS the rooster. BUT, he has been hiding something! Something, which I happened to find out about through sources, I cannot reveal to u. -sounds dramatic- well, actually I found out, because my friend bought the books 7- 14 in Japan, when she went over there. And even though it is in Japanese, she went online here in the U.S., and she was able to find the captions translated into English. So, to make everything clearer… -writes `clearer' on board- here comes Kureno!
 
Audience: -claps-
 
Kureno: hey.
 
Fluffs: hey! -Hugs him- ^^
 
Audience: O.o
 
Fluffs: see -pokes him- he doesn't transform! ^^
 
Kureno: yeah.
Fluffs: why is that?
 
 
Kureno: well, I don't know exactly.
 
Fluffs: is it true that it is a crucial detail, for the curse to be broken?
 
Kureno: -sweat drops- what exactly did your friend tell you?
 
Fluffs: well, lets see…
 
-Flash back-
 
People in background: fluff's world!
 
Fluffs: hiya friend!
 
Friend: hiya fluffs! Guess what? Kureno tells Tohru that since he was younger, he stopped transforming! And he said it might help her break the curse.
 
-End flash back-
(From this point on, everything is a guess)
 
Kureno: well, that's true. I did indeed stop transforming when I was young. Around the time that I met Akito.
 
Fluffs: around the time that you met Akito, huh? Well, do you think that's a coincidence? Or what?
 
Kureno: my point exactly. You see, I believe that everything happens for a reason.
 
Fluffs: me too! ^^
 
Kureno: right… so, any way, since I started serving the god, I got something in return…
 
Fluffs: which was the curse being lifted!
 
Kureno: exactly! I gave something to Akito,
 
Fluffs: which was your whole life in his hands pretty much! ^^
 
Kureno: -sweat drops- yeah… and I got something back, the curse being lifted. Life usually works that way.
 
Fluffs: yep! ^^
 
Kureno: so, that's why Akito always keeps his eye on me. Because he doesn't want me to forget about him now that I'm free from the curse. He wants me to stay in the palm of his hand.
 
Fluffs: -rights all that down- how tragic! ^^
 
Kureno: -sweat drops-
 
Fluffs: BUT, it could be a crucial part to breaking the curse, don't you think?
 
Kureno: yes, but then you'd have to know about Akito's past…
 
Fluffs: oh, but I do know! It'll be in the next chapter! ^^ So, u won't want to miss that! If u review 4 this chap, u can b in another story I'm writing, I need about 4 characters. 2 girls, 2 boys. So hurry and review!
Oh, and the story is a cross over between furuba and Harry potter.
I'm also writing a story about inuyasha! So look out for those! C u soon!
