Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ Tohru's Big Surprise! ❯ Chapter 3

Tohru stands there with her eyes popped out and her jaw dropped wide open.

Tohru: Is…this…all…for…me!

Momiji: OF COURSE IT IS!

Tohru stood there staring at everyone. Everyone she knew was there! Yuki, Kyo, Shigure, Hatori, Ayame, Kagura, Kazuma, and Haru! Even the timid Ritsu was there! There was Kisa, Hiro, Hana, Uo and even Grandpa!

Tohru: I must be the luckiest girl in the world! Everyone I know and love is here! You went through all this trouble when I didn't ask for a thing and…

Uo approaches Tohru wearing a mask.

Uo: Tohru, we only did it because we wanted too. You've done so much for all of us.

Hana: Yes…That is very true. We wanted your one and only day of the year to be special. Yes…very special.

Ayame: TOHRU DEAR! I HAVE DECIDED TO GRACE THIS SPECIAL DAY BY SHOWING UP! How are you, delicate flower?

Tohru: OH! I'm quite fine, thank you! How you guys did planned all this out?

Shigure: That is a fine story….you see…

Uo: Yeah, ya see…

Two weeks ago…..

Hana and Uo are at Shigure's house at the family/dining room with Yuki, Kyo and Shigure.

Uo: Hey! We need this place.

Kyo: WHAT? We're living here!

Uo: Maybe you should shut your stupid pie-hole before you go into your angry outbursts!

Kyo: Why I oughtta…..!

Hana: Yes… It is a situation involving Tohru and since our sweet Tohru is residing here, You must take the time to hear us.

Shigure: Seriously Kyo, you can be more of a gentleman when a lady is speaking

Kyo: ARGH! Fine! Then explain what you want to say, ya dumb Yankee.

Uo: As I was saying before Carrot-top here rudely interrupted me, we need this house on Saturday, two weeks from now. Tohru's 17th birthday is that day.

Yuki: Of course, we'd be happy to have her celebration here.

Shigure: I agree completely though Yuki should talk to me about such matters before he willingly hands over my house. (Yuki sighs). I am the name holder of this house but yes yes! The party will be here!

Kyo: Yeah…Yeah. Let's have it here.

Hana: Now that the decision is made, we will need money from all of you…

Kyo: WHAT FOR!

Yuki: If you actually calm down and think for once, it might be for the party accommodations.

Kyo: WHATEVER!

Shigure: Money doesn't exactly grow on trees. I would gladly contribute! Here! (Gives money to Uo).

Yuki: Here is my part. (Holds out money).

Uo: Yo, Orange-top! Cough it up!

Kyo: Fine! You win! Here! (Hands over money). Damn girls are taking over, I swear.

Hana looks at the money and looks disapprovingly at it.

Hana: Oh no…This cannot do. Kyo, you will need to give more than this.

Kyo: WHAT? I gave you money. No chances in Hell are you getting more!

Hana eyes glows purple and her hair and black cape flies in the background.

Hana: What would Tohru think? She only has provided for your family by burdening herself with laundry and preparing your meals that you enjoy so much. She only asks for room and board in return. Are you that ungrateful? I assume you are human and as a human, you should have feelings.

Kyo is up against the wall with a frightful look as static gathers around Hana. Her presence seemed to have blacked the room and set high tensions. Yuki and Shigure are on the other side with a blank look while Uo stands there unaffected.

Hana: Feelings….such a complicated thing to explain…They are (BLEEP) that can be controlled by the human heart and brain...

Shigure: (scared)….Umm… Was that lightning that just struck there?

Yuki: (also scared) And what was that bleeping sound she's making?

Hana: The heart, while controls the amount of oxygen by the transportation of blood, seems to have such strong (BLEEP). The heart technically cannot receive harm from such feelings but these feelings can be so strong that if feels as if you heart is (BLEEP) and agonizing fire. Such (BLEEP) are also neurologically (BLEEP). And the neuron….such a wondrous thing…..It (BLEEP)……

Kyo: (whimpers, whimpers)

Shigure: Kyo! Give her the money before she sets my whole house on fire!

Hana: ….If these (BLEEP) are to ever affect Tohru, then (BLEEP)… (BLEEP)(BLEEP)(BLEEP)!

Kyo: OK! OK! Take it! TAKE ALL OF IT! ( Hands over money).

Hana: Thank you. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.

Uo: Hmm..I wouldn't call it generosity…It was more forceful but oh well…Whatever works. Oh yeah, you should invite all the Sohmas she knows. We already covered Momiji and Haru.

Hana: Arisa, We must tell of them of Grandpa.

Uo: Ahh yes…Tohru's Grandpa is coming so be on your best behavior.

Kyo: HEY! You're not talking about me are you?

Uo: Who else what I be talking to?

Kyo and Uo squabbles in the background while Shigure and Yuki let out a huge sigh.

Shigure: (thinks to himself) It must be part of the curse to live in a house that is constantly stuck through a violent hurricane!

Yuki: I hope we didn't run out of aspirin…

Hana and Uo walk towards their home as the sun sets.

Uo: Hey Hana, what was the reason for prying Carrot-top for more money? Didn't he give enough?

Hana: Of course it was enough but…

Uo: Oh! I see. No amount is enough for our Tohru ,right?

Hana: That is correct, but that is not the reason why.

Uo: It isn't? What is then?

Hana: I saw this wondrous store. It has wonderful handicrafts and some interesting garments. It was called Aya something.

Uo laughs heartily.

Uo: Oh Hana! You are a smart one! I should have I thought of that and done it too! I love annoying that boy!

Hana: You don't have to. He gave us all his money from his pockets. That boy has enough for both of us to share. I do say, he is much more generous than I thought he would be…

End of flashback…

Kyo: WHA! My money!

Ayame: HATORI? DID YOU HEAR THAT! It was MY store that these two young ladies eagerly wanted to go influenced them to take extra money from our Kyo! Who could blame them! My store represents grace, beauty, fantasy, and empowerment! Just like me! HA HA HA HA!

Hatori& Yuki: Idiot!

Tohru: Oh wow! I'm so grateful! I don't know what to say! You went through all that trouble. I… (Tears start welling up) really do appreciate you all…

Momiji: It's ok, Tohru! LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED! WAHOO! (Runs around!)

Kyo: ARGH! Stop running around all the time! YOU annoy me like no other! (noogie, noogie).

Momiji: WAHHH! KYO IS HURTING ME AGAIN!

Tohru smiles warmly. She's happy to be a part of all this.

A small voice is heard in the back and something gently tugs on Tohru.

Kisa: Ummm…Sissy? I want to say Happy Birthday to you.

Tohru: Thank you, Kisa. I'm really glad that you could…

Hiro: Hey! How about some snacks here! I've come to celebrate your birthday. The best you can do is make sure your guests are properly treated to some food.

Tohru: Uhh…right...!

Hiro: So what are you waiting for! The food is not going to magically serve itself to my mouth!

Tohru: Ahh! Ok! Umm…Snacks, here I come!

Hana runs towards the kitchen with Tohru.

Kisa: Hiro…!

Hatori: (Coldly) Hiro, it is her birthday. Be a little more polite.

Hiro: Yeah, Whatever.

As Tohru walks over towards the kitchen but she stops to see a familiar face.

Tohru: GRANDPA! I'm so glad you're here with all my friends!

Grandpa: (He looks ups) Ahh…How are you, Kyoko?

Tohru: Ehh?

Hana: Grandpa, this is Kyoko's daughter.

Grandpa: Ahh… Tohru! Sorry for the mistake! My, how have you grown!

Tohru: (Smiles) It's ok, Grandpa. I'm just happy that you're here.

Grandpa: I am too. My my, your friends are quite interesting and rowdy.

Tohru: (nervously) hehehe….I'm going to go get food so please enjoy yourself!

Grandpa: Heehee! I will!

Tohru watches Grandpa walk outside towards Haru as Uo spreads a blanket with some plates down. Everyone is having such a great time. This makes Tohru very happy.

Tohru and Hana comes out of the kitchen carrying plates of food out to the blanket where the heart of the party is. Tohru stops at the edge of the blanket.

Ayame: OH! There is our lovely Tohru serving me with her delicate and yet beautiful hands!

Yuki: Brother, you are embarrassing her!

Ayame: How cute! Shigure, I interfered between a love…

AHHHH! OH NOO! AHHHH!

Tohru: HUH!WHAT IS IT! WHAT'S WRONG?
