As she rushed to the kitchen she squeaked. ‘How do you live like this!’ she breathed.
‘we just use the microwave most of the time,’ Aurora said apologetically. ‘Besides it’s not-‘
‘Forgive me, I spoke out of turn! I’ll get this cleaned up in no time!’
Shigure shot the two other Sohma’s a look.
Haru was quiet for a long time. ‘Well, it’s obvious we both have feelings for one another. Why not make it official?’ he finally spoke.
‘No really it’s okay!’ Tohru said as she whizzed around them all. As soon as it was clean she smiled triumphantly. ‘There! Now your lives can be a lot nicer!’
Haru smiled slightly and looked ahead. ‘Why not? You’re single and so am I.’
Haru was taken by immense surprise and paused before slowly wrapping his arms around her in return.
Shigure blinked a few times in awe.
Aurora joined the silent conversation and looked upwards: what about him? He’s not gonna be happy.
‘Well ever since my Mom died, I just felt like it was the right thing to do. My grandpa is having his house renovated and has gone to live with his son and family, and since that was so far out I wouldn’t be able to attend school and I need to finish school bec-‘
‘You can stay with us.’ Aurora shot a look at Shigure. Are you crazy! The curse!
‘Aurora has the whole third floor to herself and we never use the spare bedroom there, you could sleep there and be like a maid!’
Haru shivered slightly, the little hairs all raising up on the back of his neck from the cold. He felt himself getting sleepy and missed his warm bed.
Haru shivered and raced inside the house, taking his coat off and hanging it up, struggling slightly to unbuckle his boots whilst standing.
Tohru gasped. ‘I’ll work for room and board and that’s it! I can help out with everything in the house for a bed at night and meals!’
Aurora smiled. ‘You’re welcome to that, Tohru,’ she said softly.
‘Ahh thankyou!’ Tohru squeaked.
Tohru nodded earnestly. ‘Y-yes that would be lovely Yuki!’
Aurora sat down on the floor and sighed softly.
Tohru gasped. ‘Dinner! I’ll get right on it!’ She whizzed into the kitchen and started cooking soup.
Shigure sighed. ‘He’s not gonna like this.’
Haru shivered and stretched himself out, yawning. ‘What do you wanna do?’ he asked quietly.
‘If Hatori finds out then Akito will find out.’
Aurora looked up sharply. She was about to defend him before sighing. ‘Yeah that’s true,’ she said quietly.
Shigure looked ahead. ‘If she’s to live here she’s to be treated like staff, understood? No friendliness. No relationships.’
Aurora nodded slightly. ‘If she finds out it’d be a disaster...’
Haru’s ears pricked up. ‘Yeah id love to!’ He said suddenly. He looked ahead when he heard a little bleating of his name and Momoko’s. Hiro ran to them. ‘Have either Of you seen Kisa?’ he asked in a panic.
Aurora was torn between them both. ‘Shigure we can’t isolate her,’ she said pleadingly. ‘I would hate that. But if she’s anything like Yuki’s fan club then she could try to hug and build a relationship with him. Or you.’
Shigure paused in thought. ‘Well alright. But if she ever finds out Hatori will be called here faster than you can change back. Any of you.’
Hiro shook slightly. ‘I was meant to meet Kisa by the gates to school to walk home with her. But she never turned up. I figured she would’ve come straight home but she’s nowhere to be found!’
Haru’s eyes widened. ‘Kisa...’ he said worryingly.
I thought you were playing Kisa? But I’m happy to if you play Tohru:D
Haru held onto Hiro. ‘Where could she have gone?’
‘I’ve looked everywhere for her! I genuinely don’t know,’ Hiro spluttered, panicking.
‘Calm down Hiro. Stop panicking and think.’
Shigure narrowed his eyes. ‘Well alright. You both seem pretty keen on her staying here. As long as she doesn’t find out.’
Aurora shook her head quickly. ‘No of course not. I won’t tell her honest.’
Haha awesome XD
Hiro looked distraught and shook slightly, scowling at Haru.
Haru hugged him tightly. ‘We’ll find her don’t worry.’
Tohru ran through and placed four servings of a beef stew on the table. ‘Here!’ She smiled. ‘Eat up.’
‘Ah, Tohru, we’ll need another portion,’ Shigure smiled apologetically.
‘Oh really? W-who for?’
‘shall I go get him?’ Aurora asked as she started to stand up.
‘Yes that would be best.’
(Are we doing the fightey-transformation bit now?)
Hiro was inconsolable, bleating softly in Haru’s arms as he spoke soothingly to him.
Ahh could do. There’s no point bringing Kyo in yet, then
Aurora sighed. ‘No, he can starve tonight,’ she muttered and dug in.
‘Miss Honda this is delicious!’ Shigure smiled as he wolfed down his food.
Hiro jumped up and went to Kisa, gently butting her. ‘I missed you,’ he bleated. ‘Why didn’t you come to me!’
Aurora yawned softly as she ate, before finishing up and taking her plate over to the sink.
‘I-I’ll wash up!’ Tohru said.
‘No, don’t tell a dragon that, they take what they can get,’ Shigure laughed.
‘D-dragon?!’
‘M...mad one. She’s a mad one that Aurie!’
Aurora scoffed before making her way upstairs.
Hiro gasped. ‘Kisa! Why are you sorry! I mean sure you made me worry but still! Don’t ever do that!’
‘It’s okay Kisa,’ Haru said quietly, stroking her head.
‘Don’t do that again, silly,’ Haru scolded ever so softly.
‘You had us scared,’ Hiro murmured into her fur.
‘Whooooops,’ Shigure hissed back through gritted teeth. ‘Oh, Aurora, show Tohru to her room.’
As aurora passed the second floor she pointed to Kyo’s door, covered in small scratches. ‘This is just for storage. Nobody inside,’ she hissed, knocking twice before leading her up to her new room
Haru grabbed his coat and wrapped it around Hiro, ready for when his transformation happened. Hiro smiled and hugged Kisa tightly.
‘What the-‘ Shigure rushed upstairs and sighed. ‘Here you are Kyo, I thought you had eaten your dinner elsewhere. It’s srill warm!’
Aurora sighed and turned to Tohru. ‘Ignore him. He doesn’t worry too much about others,’ she murmured as Tohru nodded nervously.
Hiro nodded. ‘L-let’s get changed,’ he said and ran off to his room.
‘A deed well done;’ Haru sighed softly.
‘N-no don’t fight!’ Tohru squeaked and grabbed Kyo around the waist, as Aurora yelped and leaped forward.
Everyone was silent for a second.
‘Oh my gosh I turned him into a cat I’m so sorry!’ she yelped before a piece of wood hit her on the head, sending her tumbling into Yuki and Shigure. Aurora tried to push her out the way but landed with a sharp plonk on top of her, the pressure causing her too, to go up in a poof of golden smoke.
Haru laughed. ‘The rabbit seems to have won the race,’ he joked, nudging ber.
Haru frowned. ‘Yeah sure, are you okay?’ He said, firmly supporting her arm
‘ANIMALS!’ Tohru yelped. ‘A RAT A CAT A DOG AND A-‘ she screamed loudly as Aurora shuffled away quickly. ‘DRAGON!’
‘That lasted long,’ Shigure sighed as she ran round, holding Kyo tight in her arms. Aurora growled softly and flapped her wings in annoyance.
Aurora grabbed onto her skirt roughly, staring at her. ‘Calm down.’ She barked, tail lashing.
Shigure pawed st her. ‘Kyo doesn’t look comfortable,’ he said with a doggy smile.
Tohru dropped him roughly and sat herself down, staring at them all.
Haru watched her go. ‘Can I do anything?’ he asked loudly.
Haru nodded slowly and smiled, making his way to the kitchens.
Aurora rolled her eyes and roughly dropped her skirt. ‘You see, we’re all cursed...’ she explained the whole situation
Shigure smiled. ‘We turn back after a little while. Only trouble is...’ with puffs of smoke he stood against the wall as Aurora held onto herself on the floor. ‘We’re naked...’
