Are You Ok? ~A FruitsBasket LoveStory~

I walked in on the first day of school, my bag at my side and my books in my hand. I stopped in the doorway and smiled. The first day of high school. This is going to be great. I started to take my first step when i heard a noise behind me. I was confused and was about to turn around when i was pummeled to the ground. "Oof." My books scattered as two boys ran past me. "Aya! Look, the high school is amazing!" "Yes! Look here! Its..." I ignored them and started picking all of my books up.
Then i saw a hand picking them up too. "Are you ok?" "Huh...." I looked up. "Im sorry. They arent too cautious when they're exicited." He was handsome, serious looking, but handsome. "I-I-I-I." He smiled and started putting my books in my bag. "A girl of few words i see." "No." I tucked a stray strand of hair behind my ear and helped him. "Its just tha-" "What are you two doing?!?" We both looked down the hallway. "That would be them. Come on." He pulled my arm as i put the last of my books in my bag. One almost fell and i caught it and we stopped in front of a classroom.
They were climbing around and on the desks. "Ha'ri! Look at us!" "We're high school kids!" I looked at the boy. "Ha'ri?" "Hatori, Sohma Hatori." "Oh." He nodded and whistled. "Ayame, Shigure, stop it." They froze and looked at him. After a second they smiled. "Ok." "Right away." They quickly stood beside him, then i thought for a minute. "Wait, i thought this was the all-girls school." "It is. These two went into the wrong building." He pointed to the two boys and they giggled. "Oops, im sorry, we were just so excited." "Yeah, what he said. By the way, im Shigure, this is Ayame, and you've already met Hatori."
I smiled. "Yes, nice to meet you all." "Whats your name?" The boy named Ayame took my hand and i looked at him for a second. "Uh....." "Im sorry. Ayame, off." "Right away Tori!" He let go and stepped back. "So, what is your name?" "My name? Oh, right. Mitsu Chiyo. My parents call me ChiChi....... At least...... They did." I looked away, out the window. "What happened to the-" "Shouldnt you guys be getting to your own school?" They looked at each other and nodded. "Right." "See you later, Miori-san!" "Bye!"
The two ran out and Hatori stopped in front of me. "It was nice meeting you Miss Mitsu." "Huh? Oh, yes, you too." I walked out of the room with him. "It would be nice seeing you again." I blushed a little. "Really?" "Yes, how about i walk you home after school." "Oh, no. Its no trouble, really. I can......" I looked up at him and he smiled slightly. "No, i insist." "Well, if you insist, i guess so. Sure, why not?" "Great, i'll meet you in front of this school right after." "Ok, see you then." I waved as the bell rang.
Then i ran to class. I tumbled in right as the late bell rang. "Sorry im late!" "You are not late Miss........." "Oh, Mitsu. Mitsu Chiyo" "Right. Be more punctual next time, ok?" I nodded and looked around for a seat. There was one in the back and i took it. The girl beside me smiled. "Hi, im Kana." I nodded. "Im Chiyo." "I heard." I nodded and got to work writing notes. After class she ran up to me. "Man, you'd think they would take it easy on us on our first day." I nodded, getting more comfortable with her around. We walked together to our next class, after figuring out we had every class together.
Senior Year
Kana and i were walking home. Then it started to snow. "Hey, Kana." "Yes?" "I got this riddle from my grandmother. You want to hear it?" "Sure." "Ok, ok." I thought for a minute. "When the snow melts, what does it become?" She thought for a second. "Hm....... Well, Spring i guess." "Thats right! You know, no one ever gets that right." Then i saw Hatori walk over. I waved and Kana stepped back. "Huh?" I turned to her. "Wouldnt want to see your mystery boy. That would ruin the mystery." "He isnt 'My boy', he is just a friend." "Whatever. I have to go home anyways. See you tomorrow." I waved to her and walked over to Hatori.
"Hey." "Hi Miss Mitsu." I smiled at him. "I told you, you can call my ChiChi. Or Chiyo, which ever." "Right, about that, you said in freshman year that you're parents used to call you that. Why dont they call you that anymore?" I sighed, stopping in my tracks. "You would've found out sooner or later." I looked at my feet. "Might as well tell you now." I sighed again and looked back up at him. "My parents were fighting. My father was...... well he was drunk. He had drinking problems, him and my mom made a deal; If he stopped drinking, she would stop smoking. That never happened. My-my father came home immensely drunk one day and saw my mother smoking outside.
"I never knew what their deal was if one of them broke it, but right then and there, my father....... He-he-" I looked down and tears started pouring out of my eyes. "He killed my mother." "Thats horrible." I nodded. "After he realized what he did he ran in and started packing two bags, one for me and one for him. I was to stay at my Grandmothers while he fled. So he dropped me off at grandma's then ran." I sniffed and wiped the tears. "My grandmother had a gambling problem, and after a while started charging me for staying there. That is, until she died." I smiled weakly. "My life is just full of death, isn't it? She died in a car crash......... With my father, who was coming to check up on me. Only she died, but he was recognised and brought to jail."
"I-I'm so sorry!" "Dont be." I smiled at him, wiping away ore tears. "It wasnt your fault." "So........ where are you living now?" "In a hotel. Im its cleaning lady.......... Only cleaning lady, really." "Thats horrible." "Whats horrible?" Shigure came over with his books. "She has no where to stay." "What?!? Yes i do, i told you, im working to pay for a room in a hotel." "Really? Then why dont you stay with us? Free of charge, of course!" "Oh, i couldnt do that." I started feaking out. "No really. Its fine. Im sure Shigure could give you his room." I looked between them. "Really?"
"Mm-hm. No problem. I can just sleep in Ayame's room." "You mean it? Thank you, oh thank you so much!" "Great lets go." But, my things." "I can sent Aya to get them for you. Now lets go!" I nodded as they pulled me down the street.
