Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ It's Our Secret ❯ Heal ( Chapter 10 )

Shot Ten: Heal

 

A/N: A double post, I hardly do these, but that's going to change over the next few days. Anyway, onto the story and I hope you enjoy. : )

What does snow become when it melts?

 

Water, wrong, it becomes spring.

 

I had been asked that question by Kana. I had given the answer of water, and found that I was wrong. She had said that the answer was spring and, in some illogical way, she was right.

 

I asked Tohru that same question, so many years ago, she was right too. She had said spring, just like her, it made me truly smile. She was so much like Kana; able to heal the younger zodiac members, but not me. I wasn't at the point to be healed. I still needed more time.

 

I needed a different answer to that question…

 

In order for my emotional wounds to heal…

 

The answer of spring could only bring a sad smile to my face, a real smile, but still a sad one. It would have done me no good; would have only locked up the pain longer; like a lock stuck in a key whole to a door that held too many emotions behind it. I needed an answer that was the complete opposite.

 

That's when I asked it one last time. To Mayu; her answer:

 

What becomes of snow when it melts?

 

It becomes water.

 

That was the answer I needed to hear…

 

In order to finally heal.

A/N: Thus, another one-shot comes to an end. I had fun writing this one; even though it is rather bittersweet…I like bittersweet though. :p That's it for today, but look out for another double post tomorrow, Thursday, and (hopefully) Friday. At which point, I will be finished with this series of one-shots. Please tell me what you think of it in a review and take care. : D
