Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ Tohru-Kun's Hat ❯ The Day at the Park ( Chapter 2 )

Disclaimer: I don't own Fruits Basket… or the song

A/N: I've been receiving a lot of reviews how to get the story I am writing accurate, but unless you read the reviews, I'm going to just let you keep on guessing, because truthfully, it could be either one for my story… or not… well, I'll at least get the person who gave her the hat correct, but who she ends up with? My surprise… Now, on with the story!

Chapter 2: The day at the park…

~Tohru~

"Where are we going today?" I asked as Yuki led me down street and past buildings.

"It's a surprise," he said.

"It better be a good one!" Kyo shouted from behind us. Yuki looked at him and smiled.

"My surprises are always good," he replied. It was Sunday. Nothing interesting had happened yesterday like I had hopped for, but today it seemed that something might happen.

There are days when those grey skies

Make you blue

Each forward step you take

You fall back by two

"Damn rat," Kyo muttered, and I giggled a bit.

"Is something the matter?" Yuki asked, sounding worried.

"You two are always so funny!" I said, and Yuki merely smiled.

"Oh, we're almost there!" Yuki exclaimed, and I looked up and around, and noticed we were at a park! Had I really not been paying that close of attention?

"This is the surprise! Well, the weather is beautiful today, so why not spend the day at the park?" Yuki asked, smiling. It was then I noticed other people running towards us.

"Tohru!" came a familiar German voice, "Tohru!"

"Momiji!" I cried as he came to greet me.

"And then to make it better, spend it with your friends!" Yuki said, smiling once again. I was now smiling from ear to ear.

You've been hit by some hard knocks

You just can't stand

Feeling like Alice felt

In Wonderland

Let me be the one to lend a hand

~Yuki~

It was good to see her smile once again. Kisa ran forward, followed by Uo and Hana and others, all ready to help cheer Miss Honda up.

"Well, if it isn't the Prince," Uo said, looking at me, "Hey, and orange-top as well."

"It's has been some time, hasn't it?" Hana greeted, "Your electric waves seem fine, as usual." I thought I heard a tone of disappointment when she said that, but I wasn't sure. I glanced around; it was a very fine day.

Call my name and I'll be there

There's nothing like the laughter that we share

Whenever you need someone

Or a shoulder to lean on

Call my name and I'll be there…

"Yuki, come on! We're going to play some hide and go seek! Wanna play?" Momiji asked, coming over to grab my hand.

"Okay…" I said, "I might as well. I mean, it's not like I didn't work all yesterday organizing this little get together!" I saw the others gathered around to see who would be the finder.

"You better do it Haru. At least then I know I'd never be found!" Kyo shouted.

"Why don't you do it Kyo?" Haru asked, "At least then I know I can hide and you would be too lazy to find me."

"How about I'll be it?" Momiji offered.

"No!" They responded in unison.

"Then, me?" Hana asked.

"I'll do it," I offered, "I wouldn't mind. It'd be… fun!"

"Are you sure? I can do it if you don't really want to," Hana said.

"I think Yuki can go first, you can go next Hana!" Tohru said.

"That sounds like a good idea," Hana replied, and smiled at Tohru.

And when life's going your way

Just like a breeze

It's a kit flying kind of day

Above the trees

Together we'll be making memories…

So that was what we did for most of the day, play fun little games like that. Miss Honda seemed to really be cheering up. I was glad.

"Hey, let's play baseball!" Kyo suggested.

"No way Carrot-top!" Uo exclaimed.

"Wow, the sun's gotten brighter," Tohru mentioned, looking up at the sky.

"I think it must be around 1:00pm. It shouldn't be getting brighter, just a bit dimmer," I said thoughtfully.

"Well, it's in my eyes now, sort of. I know! I brought just the thing!" Tohru exclaimed, going to her bag that she had brought with her.

Call my name and I'll be there!

There's nothing like the laughter that we share!

Whenever you need someone

Or a shoulder to lean on

Call my name and I'll be there!

She reached into her bag and brought out a red cap and placed it on her head. It looked so familiar! That red cap, I was sure I used to have one almost like it, but I remember giving it away, at least, I think so.

"Where did you get such a hat Miss Honda?" I asked.

"Oh this? I've had this for a long time now," she said.

"And the story of how you got it is so sweet as well," Hana added. Wait… does… could she really be the one who?

As this world turns us around

We hold onto what we found

A treasure we both need

I will go the extra mile

To give you back that certain smile

That you've given me, YEAH!

~Kyo~

That hat! It looked so much like a hat I had ages ago, but had given to the damn rat because he contaminated it. Nah, it couldn't be the same hat.

"So there's a story behind the hat?" I asked her.

"Well yes, do you want to hear it? It's just a silly story," Tohru said, blushing.

"Let's hear it," I said, and walked closer to hear her better.

I'll answer any time and anywhere…

~Yuki~

No way…

~Kyo~

It can't be…

Call my name and I'll be there…

There's nothing like the laughter that we share!

Whenever you need someone

Or a shoulder to lean on

Call my name and I'll be there…

~Yuki~

I… I gave her that hat, didn't I? I was the one that led her home that day. It was just a random act of kindness, and I gave her that hat because she looked so sad…

It was Tohru?

~Kyo~

That damn rat gave my hat away? Well, it was his because he contaminated it, so why not? He could do with it as he chose, couldn't he? It was Tohru that had received it? It was Tohru?

~Hana~

Yuki and Kyo's electric waves are in a state of shock. I wonder…

Call my name and I'll be there

Call my name and I'll be there

Call my name

Call my name

I'll be there…

A/N: And so ends my second chapter… Yes, Hana senses something… Anyways, cute? I hope you (the reviewer) want me to continue… I think I have it right… Thanks to all the reviewers who set me straight on the story. I still think it looked like Kyo in the manga, but actually, comparing the hairline at the back of the neck, it looks like Yuki. Yeah, I'm confusing, aren't I?
