- Somewhere -

[I...i can't believe that i actually did that just then! Where did that blast of courage came from? God.... that was really risky! What if she decided to stand up and walk to me? She would have seen my face for sure! ARRGGGHHHH!!!!..... This is so frustrating! just by looking at her sitting there alone just makes me want to jump down and join her..... but she will ask too many question and maybe i won't have the appropriate answer to it. But....but Tohru....... i want you so MUCH...... i want to make you mine so the others would back away and i will be the only person for you to love.... is that possible? Can my one and only dream come true? I-M-P-O-S-S-I-B-L-E........ it will never happen with the way its going now. I have made my choice but i....can't ...help....myself from wanting to be close to her.]

He stopped where he was walking to and laid his eyes on a small clearing full of lustrous grass. Shoving his hand into his pockets, he walked over to the grassy area and sat down. He crossed his long legs in a 'x' shape and brought his right hand up to his chin. Moving his right elbow so that it was supported by his leg, he rested the chin onto his hand and sighed.

[I should be back by now but i don't think anyone would even notice that i'm gone. I wonder if Tohru will wear the ring? Can i possibly think that Tohru would be mine if she wears that ring? I hope so...... and what will be her answer if someone ask about the ring? ...... I'm sure asking a lot of question.....]

He untwined his crossed legs and stretched it out towards him in a parallel line. Tilting his head upwards to face the sky, he placed both his hands behind his head and just leaned back against the grass.

[It's only been nearly an hour already and i'm having this strange feelings that i haven't seen her for years! Even looking at that cute little cloud floating up there reminds me of her...... is this normal??? Hehehehe... narh, it is normal.... everyone should experience this at least once in their life time. Awe man.... i can't even last a minute now without thinking about her.]

He brings up one hand from behind his head and writes Tohru's name in the air with a heart around it to finish it off. He smiled when a white butterfly fluttered past his new creation of Tohru's name in the air. The breeze started to pick up, his hair danced around in one direction. He returned his hand back to his head and slowly closed his eyes.

[Tohru.... you looked at me yet you couldn't tell who it was because of the sun light hitting your beautiful eyes. Thanks to the sunlight, i could clearly gaze at your beautiful face and take in all your perfect curves and texture of your face. It didn't last long but it was enough to have me memorize everything about your face, it would have been better if the sun shone on your whole body but i won't be greedy about that... god....Tohru... why did you have to look up at me with innocent eyes and squint cutely at the sunlight? That drove me to the wild side and if you kept that up, i wouldn't know what to do at my next action. thank goodness you sneezed which gave me some time to escape and leave that pretty flower you were gazing at before. I was pretty lucky that i decided to sit up in that tree, i didn't know that you would be sitting there but it was worth it. I must admit that i was trying to keep quiet while gazing at you, but it failed later on. Will you go through the trouble of finding out who was with you? I mean, i did tell you that trying to find out who i am will cause trouble but will that actually stop you from finding out who i am?? Are you going to take that chance to meet me???...... Im...getting sleepy.... hope i can dream about her again...... ]

He takes in a deep breathe and relaxed as sleep starts taking over his body. His breathing slowed down while his body went limpy.

"Tohru....my....angel...." whispered the sleepy figure before sliding off to sleepy land.

- At School -

Tohru waved bye to Kyou and Yuki as the school's bell rang for end of school. Tohru had already explained to Yuki and Kyou about going after school to give the other Sohmas their Valentine's Day gift. Both Yuki and Kyou nodded and told her to take care before walking in the opposite direction back to home. Tohru cheerfully trots along the sidewalk while clutching her a bag full of Valentine's Day gifts. She had already placed the mysterious gift into one of her pockets and the letter in it's box. She really wanted to have time to ponder about who was he and who gave the gift but she had other things to do first before approaching that.

"Hmmm..... where was the Honke situated again?"

Tohru placed a finger to her chin and started tapping it, she remembered what the honky looked like but her direction is a bit wrong. It could be because she took a wrong turn or missed a turn but that she didn't want to think about because now she was lost and needed to find her way or it will be too dark and dangerous. Tohru takes a big gulp before turning a corner while hoping that it will lead her to the right place.

After turning a corner, she was about to scan the surrounding to find out where she is now but instead she saw a blurry figure walked straight into her so she waited for the impact when nothing happened at all. Her eyes were shut when she saw the figure walking into her so she slowly opened her eyes to only be faced with someone's chest, Tohru noticed that she had bumped into a male. She could feel the person holding her by the shoulder to stop her from crashing into him. Her cheeks reacted immediately when she could feel his gaze on her, her cheeks turned from a pinkish colour to a hot red.

"Go...men.... i didn't mean to bump into you and i'm so clumsy for not looking where i walk and ......"

Tohru was too concentrated in babbling her sorries that she didn't even look up to see who she had bumped into. The person just smiled at her apologies and slowly removed one of his hand from her shoulder to place it lightly on her cheek. He could feel the heat radiating from it. This brought Tohru back from her babbling world to the reality, his hand was on her cheek and he was caressing it too! She could have sworn that she was more red than a tomato.

"It's okay, really... it's not your fault Honda-san...." whispered the stranger.

He knows her name? That means he knows her! she was jumping with joy on the inside but her mind told her that she doesn't even know who it is if she doesn't take a look. Her eyes had a small portion of tears since she was happy to find someone who can help her but mostly because she was getting scared of this strange place. His touch was so nice against her cheek, he was gently rubbing it while quietly shushing her to stop babbling on her apologies. She wanted to see who is he but her shyness of the way he was comforting her stopped her. She was also too ashamed of the way she acted to look at him.

"I'm really sorry...... please... i'm really sor..."

Tohru's sentence was cut off when his hand moved from her cheek to her lips. He was placing a finger on her lips to cut off her sentence, he had to make sure that it wasn't her fault and no harm was done.

"Would it make you happy if i said that it's both our fault for not looking when turning a corner?"

Tohru was stunned, it can't be his fault too! It was only hers and it will be her blame too. Her eyes started swelling up in tears that it was her fault and that this very nice person is trying to take some of her blame. No, she won't let that happen, not after what he had done and his kind gesture of sharing the blame.

"No... it's my fault, please don't take part of it. I don't want you to do that."

This only made the stranger to smile more as he wiped away Tohru's tears that had made it's way down her red cheeks.

"No Honda-san, it's not right that you take all the blame since it was my fault too. I know my own mistakes."

Tohru was not convinced by this so she was about to deny what he said when he spoke up first.

"Ne Honda-san, are you saying that i'm a liar and that i don't know from what's right and what's wrong?"

This caught Tohru off guard, she would never do that especially to someone who is kind as him. She looked up from where she was staring at the ground and stared at the stranger in shock.

"H...Hatsuharu-kun??"

"Yep, that's me"

"Oh! I'm so sorry Hatsuharu-kun! I didn't know it was you! I was too ashamed to even look at who i just bumped into and i'm..."

"Stop that Honda-san, stop apologising and just agree that it's both our fault"

"I..i can't..."

"So you are calling me a liar then?"

"Ahh...no, i would never do that!"

"Then it's settled, it's both our fault"

"...............Okay Hatsuharu-kun but..."

"No Honda-san, don't talk about it anymore"

"Err...rrrr....okay..."

"So why are you wondering around the street?"

"I was trying to find the Sohma's resident but i guess i got lost along the way. Why is Hatsuharu-kun walking around the street too? Is Hatsuharu-kun going home?"

"Uh, i was going home but it seemed that i got lost too"

"Oh i see, so both of us are lost! We can help each other find our way back okay Hatsuharu-kun?"

"Uh.... okay then and just call me Haru since it's a mouthful to call me Hatsuhrau."

Tohru nodded and smiled cheerfully at Haru. His hand was still on her lips while the other still on her shoulder, Tohru blushed even harder now at his action. However, Haru did know this but didn't want to show that he is doing this on purpose. He was pretty much surprised when he saw Tohru walking straight into him, thanks to his quick martial skills he was able to stop her in time. A strange feeling rippled through his body as Tohru's beautiful eyes stare at him with innocents. He realised that she was confused by his hands on her lips and on her shoulder so he just placed them back to his side and smiled at her.

"Gomen Honda-san..... I didn't mean to scare you like that.... are you okay now?"

"Uh huh, don't worry about it Haru-kun and also please call me Tohru"

"Uhhh....okay T-o-h-r-u-k-u-n?"

"Hehehehe... call me that from now on"

"Call me Haru from now on too then"

"Okay!"

Haru held out his hand.

"Lets go find the Honke together"

"Un, Hai!"

Tohru blushed again as she placed her hand into Haru's. Haru smiled and turned around to start walking in any direction he sees first. Tohru blushes even more at the firm and manly grip of Haru's hand, it always seems to feel good when ever a male holds a female's hand. It could be that because male's hand are much bigger and warmer than females which makes them feel well secure and protected behind those firm grip.

[Hmmmm..... this feeling, it's very new to me. His hand feels so warm and nice but i wonder where we are going. I don't mean to be rude but wouldn't Haru would just make us more lost? No, i will not say anything like that. I should just let him lead me since he does seem a bit happy that he is leading. I hope we can make it in time or just before dark, i think Shigure-san, Yuki-kun and Kyou-kun can manage without me for one night i mean i'm just there to help out but really, they are capable of cooking dinner and washing dishes right? I have faith in them!..... Haru-kun..... i still don't understand his action from before. His touch was so nice and caring and his tone was nice and calm, very different then the way he talks to Kyou-kun and Yuki-kun. This is the first time he ever showed me his other side but.....i'm also curious about the feelings i got just then when he touched my cheeks and placed his fingers on my lips. Is it natural to feel this way? I...i felt......like......i....wanted.......to forget everything and just lean into him.........]

Tohru shakes her head furiously.

[I shouldn't be thinking like that! That's not me at all! What is going on Okaa-san! This strange feeling that is just making me want to feel it again......]

Haru glanced to his back to check on Tohru, seeing her deep in thought he smiled. He tugged her hand lightly and started towing her around many corners until they reached a familiar gate.

"Haru-kun! Thank you very much!"

"No problem at all! But what does Tohru-kun want to do in a place like this?"

"I have a gift for everyone for Valentine's Day!"

"Huh? But i thought that you weren't suppose to do that anymore"

"Well but i can't help it! Gomen Haru-kun but i love doing things like that and OH! Since Haru-kun is here, i want to give you something."

"Uh?"

Tohru plunged her hand into her bag and started rummaging through the bag and shot up smiling with a black and white package in her hand. Haru looks at it confusingly while scratching his head.

"This is for you Haru-kun! HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!"

"Why thank you Tohru-kun"

Haru took the package from Tohru and squeezed it.

"It's soft"

"Yep so it won't break and it will last forever! But if Haru-kun wants, he can open it later"

"Okay"

Haru just stared at the package with a soft happy expression. Tohru is surely special, other girls in school always gave him chocolates which was too typical and it was just wearing him down. But this, this was something very different. He wanted to open it now but decided not to since he knows that it will be something surprising and unexpected which might cause him to feel emotional. That is one side of him that no one not even his parents would know about, he may seem dull and just plain scary on the outside but on the inside he does feel and care deeply not to mention emotionally. Tohru have this way of making him feel strange feelings whenever she's near or even glance at him.

"Thank you Tohru-kun"

"Oh and can Haru-kun just bend down a bit?"

"Errr...okay"

Haru bended down a bit to be eye level with Tohru. Tohru smiled brightly before giving a sweet peck on his cheek, Haru just looked at her confusingly before realising that it came with the gift. An idea popped up in his head, he reached out to Tohru's head and pulled her face close to his. Tohru's face burned up in flames as his face got nearer and nearer until they were nose to nose. Tohru tried backing away to Haru's sudden action but his hand behind her head held her in place. Slowly she stared at Haru's eyes gazing at her while his lips were a mere cm away from hers. Tohru quickly closed her eyes, ready for what ever Haru was planning to do. Haru looked at her closed eye and chuckled before planting a soft kiss on her cheek. Tohru's eye shot open and stared confusingly at Haru. Haru had already let go of Tohru and was waving to her with the package she had given while mouthing: "Arigato Tohru-kun" before disappearing around a corner to take a short cut to his house.

She thought that he was going to kiss her on the lips but he kissed her on the cheek instead! That was very confusing but Tohru just smiled and held her cheek where Haru had kissed it from before.

[Somehow i feel a bit disappointed that Haru-kun didn't kiss me there. But if he did then that would mean that he would be taking my first kiss..... i wonder how it feels to be kissed? Hmmmm..... i should stop standing around..... lets see... oh yeah! I need to give the rest of my present to the others.]

Tohru gently pushed the huge door of the gate and peeked in. Beautiful sights immediately welcomed her with many sakura trees filled with blooming pink flowers which danced and swayed in the cool and gentle breeze. Tohru stepped inside and closed the heavy door behind her, she shivered lightly at the coolness of the breeze. Thousands and thousands of pink petals swayed past her as a gust of wind blew by, Tohru quickly placed a hand on her skirt when a much stronger gust of wind charged at her. In an instant, the wind died and returned to just light breeze flowing by.
