AND AS SHE GROWS
A Fruits Basket Series of Drabbles
Written by Miyu, Vampire Princess
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This series follows my story, "Her Tears." You don't need to read it to understand this, but I strongly encourage it. Each chapter is a 200 word drabble dedicated to the life of Kyo's daughter as she grows up. Kyo/Tohru centric with a crossover twist. Told from Kyo's point of view. Possible SPOILERS for those not familiar with the end of the manga. Standard Disclaimers appear at the end of the chapter.
YEAR TWENTY-THREE
"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm pleased to present Mr. and Mrs. Hitachiin!"
And as the crowd goes wild, I can't manage the energy to clap. Or cheer. What is a new chapter of Kyoko's life is the end of one of mine. And I just don't have it in me to be happy.
It's a lavish production, all of it, and everyone is all smiles as they congratulate us. My smile is fake as we thank them.
Hikaru and Kyoko enter the reception to more rejoicing. Tohru begins to cry beside me and I hold her hand tightly. I hate her tears, but I know she's happy beyond reason.
Our little girl is all grown up.
Everything starts falling apart moment by moment. As we eat. As the toasts are made. As more congratulations are given.
And especially when the DJ announces the father/daughter dance.
"Dad?"
I hate dancing. I'm ungraceful like my wife. However, Kyoko is undaunted, leading me around the dance floor.
I'm not ready to let go, but there's no choice. She's her own person now. I couldn't be prouder.
"I love you," she whispers, and I can't hold back anymore, holding her tighter.
"I love you, too."
