Kyo Sohma X Reader: Protective [fruits basket]

You love your school friends, but one has always been a little more protective than the others.

Even though I’ve been at school since the beginning of the academic year, I’m still not adjusted well with the students. Some students still treat me with disrespect and no remorse. I’m happy to at least have supportive friends like Tohru, her friends, and the Sohma’s; especially Kyo.

For whatever reason, he’s been very protective of me as of late — as weird as it is to put it that way. Truth be told, it does get on my nerves sometimes. His support is appreciated and all, but I can also take care of myself. Though none of this is to say I want him to change. I wouldn’t change my friends at all.

It’s currently the morning of the school day. I’m putting away my shoes in my locker when Kyo, Tohru, and Yuki walk up to meet me. Yuki gives me a wave, partnered with a "Good Morning" and Tohru says a quick hello in passing. The two of them head to class, though Kyo hangs behind with me.

"So, Kyo, How's your morning been so far?" I ask him. He scratches the back of his head.

"Annoying. Yucky Yuki's already ticked me off," he says.

"Oh, is that a new record? I’m sure he’s done worse sooner," I say sarcastically.

"Haha," he feigns an unenthusiastic laugh. "What about you? No one's tried to mess with you yet, have they?"

"Kyo, I can handle myself. Besides, no one gets violent. Just a couple of crude words,"

"I want to make sure you're safe,"

"I know, Kyo. Thanks,"I say, resting my hand against his shoulder. "C'mon. Let's get to class,”

The two of us start our trek to class. I noticed Kyo trying to hold my things for me, and while I appreciate the gesture, I tell him I can take care of things myself. We arrive at the room well before homeroom starts and claim seats with Tohru, Uo, Hana, and Yuki. Of course when the teacher actually gets here we’ll have to move to our assigned seats for the whole day, but for now some light chit-chat should be fine.

“Hey, you guys. Where's Yuki?” I ask, noticing his absence.

“He had some prince business to attend to. He’ll show up later,” Uo explains.

“I hope he’s doing alright,” Tohru says.

“Me too. He didn’t seem to want the student council position to begin with, much less to be the president. I hope he knows if he’s struggling he can come to us. That goes for all of you, as well,” I say.

“He’ll be fine. He was practically born for the role,” Kyo says, rolling his eyes. This, of course, earns him a quick jab to the ribs, courtesy of myself. Our chatting continues as the class waits for things to begin. For some reason, I thought it would be a great idea to drink a huge can of an unhealthy, sugar-filled beverage first thing in the morning, and I start to regret it as I feel a strong need to pee.

“So close to class? Excuse me guys, I’m going to use the restroom quickly,”

Yuki walks into the room just as class is about to begin, but sees you are nowhere in sight.

“Good morning everyone. Where’s Y/n? Didn’t she come to class?” Yuki asks before finding his seat.

“Now that you say that, it has been a while since she went to use the bathroom,” Hana notes. “Do you think she’s alright?”

“Orange top! Go check on Y/n!” Uo demands.

“Hah?? Don’t you tell me what to do!”

“It’s okay, I’ll do it,” Tohru suggests, but Kyo rises from his seat before she can.

“Sit down. I was going to check on her anyway,” Kyo says. As he goes to leave the room, the teacher stops him.

“Haven’t we been over this? Quit trying to skip my class,”

“I’m not trying to skip nothin’! I’m going to check on Y/n. She went to the bathroom a while ago and she’s not back yet. I’m doing your job here,”

“Just go. Don’t cause trouble,” the teacher excuses him and Kyo heads off.

The bell rings and I know I’m late for class. But it’s not completely my fault. Two students, a boy and a girl, had stopped me on my way back from the restroom. I don’t know their names, but they’ve stopped me before. They’re not really my biggest fans. I stand there against the wall as they ask and say to me things no one should ask or say, cruel words I would rather abstain from repeating. But it doesn’t really affect me. I stand there with no reaction as they berate me. Turn the other cheek, you know?

“Hey!” The interjecting voice is immediately recognizable to me. Kyo. His eyes are narrow as he walks up to the two students and I. “How about you shut your mouths? The both of you,” Kyo offers.

“Kyo, it’s alright, I got it,”

“No, I think these idiots need to learn who they’re talking to,”

“Kyo I said I got it alright? Getting aggressive isn’t going to change their perspective so let’s just head back,” you say. He grabs my hand, passing the two students a dirty look as he drags us away from the scene and back to class.

The bell rings, concluding the school day and letting the students out. To be truthful, I’ve been avoiding Kyo a bit. I’m not mad, just a bit annoyed. It’s great having such a considerate friend, no one has ever looked out for me the way he does, but when he steps in for me it looks like I can’t handle myself. I open my shoe locker, pulling out my things to leave. When I close the locker door, Kyo is leaning against the ones next to it, looking down at the floor.

“I’m sorry,” he says. I cross my arms and lean against the lockers myself.

“About what?”

“I know you don’t like it when I get really protective of you,”

“Yeah, what were you even doing out there?”

“You hadn’t come back yet and we were starting to get worried. I was starting to get worried,”

“You’re a good friend for staying by me, and I appreciate what you do for me, wanting me safe and happy, but I can fight my own battles. You can stick up for me, but you don’t need to act responsible for me,”

“I know. I’m trying to not get annoyed by them, it’s just…” Kyo trails off, debating his next words, “I don't like when people make fun of the person I like"

“What?”

“Gosh, ya need me to spell it out for ya?” I stare at him for a moment before realizing.

"You… like me? More than a friend?”

"Well duh. Why wouldn’t I?” I shrug.

“I don’t know. It’s not like you flirt with me. I don’t remember you telling me or asking me out,”

“You seriously never noticed?”

“Didn’t have a clue,”

“Well, then you must be really dumb because I made it really obvious,”

“Hey!” I say, nudging his arm. “I guess like you too… dumb dumb,”

Kyo smiles. He stands up straight, extending his hand to me. “Want me to walk you home?”

“Sure,” I say after rolling my eyes. I take his hand and we walk off the premises together. I guess I should pay more attention to things.

"It’s not always easy to see the good in people. In some people, you might even doubt that it’s there at all. But if you can somehow, find a way to believe…sometimes that’s all it takes to help someone, to give them the strength to find the good in themselves."

And it's a wrap! We have Tohru Honda with Yuki and Kyo in their animal forms! I at first wanted to give her a ponytail but decided not to. She was originally indigo (for her school uniform) but I realized that there was a lack of male characters while planning so here we go. Despite certain things not ageing well, most of it surprisingly holds up today, especially with themes of generational trauma and mental health. So, you can use this as a PFP as long as you credit me and it isn't for NSFW purposes.

fruits basket headcannons pt 2!

kagura is very gentle when it comes to animals, especially bugs and spiders. she’ll carefully scoop them up and bring them outside instead of killing them

haru and momiji tried doing the “scaring cats w cucumbers” thing to kyo one too many times so now kyo refuses to eat cucumbers. it’s not that he doesn’t like them, he’s just spiteful

once the sohma’s start having kids tohru goes CRAZY throwing the most elaborate parties. like they have themed tea parties at least once a month.

AND DONT GET ME STARTED ON BIRTHDAY PARTIES she once threw a princess/zombie robot shark birthday for rin and harus twins. it was crazy i know bc i was there

after everything that happens with akito, rin starts to pick up on nail art as a way to calm down. haru becomes her test subject and rocks it when she paints little flowers and cute designs on his nails (although he prefers when she paints skulls on them more)

kyo and tohru had two weddings: a traditional japanese one as well as a western-style wedding. (the western wedding was small, mainly to visit kyoko)

yuki started wearing mismatched socks anytime he went over to machi’s and once she noticed she started buying him the most obnoxious and ugly socks BUT HE STILL WEARS THEM LIKE THE GOOD BF HE IS

like one day he showed up in one ramen sock and a striped one. kakeru makes fun of him for it until HE was caught wearing a pair of mogeta socks. now he’s part of the ugly sock club (god i love that trio sm)

ritsu starts hanging around aya’s shop more and eventually gets really into cosplay but she’s so good at it!! i love her

mitsuru also teaches ritsu how to do makeup and it’s the sweetest thing ever

comment more characters you’d like to see! or comment ur own headcanons :)

Please, please correct me if I'm wrong but I feel like fruits basket has a victim-blaming problem. Like I want someone's insight on it.

Bad Idea's [Souma/Sohma Kyou X Reader]

This is a story I wrote a long time ago, so it's not my current writing style, but I figured I'd post it here anyway because why not? As I reread it, I realize I can write it better so if I do, I will also post that here.

Forewarning, it's a little cringe.

Story starts under the cut.

You couldn't believe what you had just done. You had sent a letter to Kyou about your mixed-up feelings about him. Last. Night.

"GUYS DON'T WANT TO READ THAT STUFF! I DON'T EVEN LIKE WRITING THAT STUFF!! This is why we don't do thing while overthinking, because then we do impulsive things!" You yelled at yourself. while pacing and pulling your hair. "Someones most likely read it by now!"

You began to hyperventilate. You were having a panic attack. You were overheating and gasping and tears were puddling down your face. You tore off your shirt and flung off your socks. You needed to cool down. You ran out of your room and through the apartment building. You didn't care if people were staring or judging you for running around in nothing but a sports bra and sweat pants. When you finally got outside, you flopped in the snow, back facing down.

Your heaving began to slow down as the cold slapped you into reality. You let out a short determined sigh with finality.

"There's still time. I can stop him from reading that letter,"

You got up fast and bolted towards Shigure's house. You were barefoot and running on ice and trough the snow. It was freezing, people were staring, and you were, most likely, slowly getting hypothermia, but you didn't care. You needed to prevent your terrible mistake.

~At Shigure's house~

Shigure was sitting at the table, reading the paper and drinking a morning cup of something. (most likely mixed with alcohol)

"Good morning Shigure-San," Tohru greeted.

"Good morning Tohru-chan. Breakfast?" Shigure asked. Yuki, who came out of nowhere, smacked the back of Shigure's head.

"Idiot. Is that all you think about? She isn't your servant awaiting your command," Yuki scolded.

"But that's what Aya-kun does!"Shigure fake whined.

"He's an even bigger fool,"

"You're up early Sohma-kun!" Tohru stated cheerfully.

"I'm not quite sure why, but today my sleep pattern isn't the same as usual,"

"That's strange, did you do something different than usual?" Then there was a knock on the door. Shigure sighed.

"Yuuuukiiii~ Tohru's busy with breakfast and I'm tired and old. Could you get that please~?" He waved Yuki to the door.

"Lazy mutt," Yuki mumbled.

"Someone's grumpy, yes?" When Yuki came back in, he held a small stack of mail. He shuffled through it lightly. "Anything for me?"

"Just a letter from your editor... again,"

"Ah, Mei!~ such a sweet girl,"

"Crue,l" Then Yuki saw a strange letter and made an expression of confusion.

"What is it Sohma-Kun?" Tohru asked.

"It's a letter from F/n-san,"

"For who?"

"The cat,"

"Strange. Couldn't she just come over?" Shigure asked.

"Stupid Cat! Come get the mail! There's a letter for you!" Yuki shouted up the stairs. Kyou hustled down the stairs, snatching the letter when he got to Yuki.

"What've I told you about calling me stupid?!!"

"What have I told you about acting stupid?"

"You wanna go, Girly?"

"Not this early, Cat. Just read the letter,"

"Who from?" Kyou asked while opening the letter.

"F/n-san,"

"Weird. She's here all the time. Couldn't she just talk to me next time she came over?" He skimmed the letter. "Huh?"

~Back with you~

You were going so fast you were stumbling over the air. As you ran through the forest, getting scraped by the branches and cut by the stones, Shigure's house slowly began coming into your view.

You didn't bother finishing the trail. You hopped off without stopping and tumbled onto the ground, a little ways away from your target. You got up light speed and broke out into a 500% sprint; the wet from the cold and snow sticking to your frame. As you broke through the doors, you used your eyes to search for Kyou. Then you saw him, letter in hand.

"Kyou don't read that letter!" You shouted and jumped on his back. You reached out at the letter like a child to a Christmas gift, but Kyou's eyes were still glued to the page. Shigure, Tohru, and Yuki were staring at you, all 3 of them horrified and confused. Shigure a little entertained. "Gimme the letter darn it! Gimme the letter. Gimme the letter! Gimme the-- HA!"

You finally snatched the letter. Success! You did it! You really did it. You got the letter back, your friendship was safe and sound, and he would never EVER find out about your feelings or--

"Y-you love me?" Kyou asked in astonishment; his eyes absently looking in the direction of the floor. The other three looked shocked.

All of the colour left your being and your nose started to get that weird feeling when you were about to cry. "Oh no...."

You slowly slid down his back and gripped his shirt, burring your face between his shoulder blades so he couldn't turn around to look at you. You felt so defeated. Tears started to pool around your waterline.

"What... whadda ya mean you love me? Like-- li-like, 'Hey, theres my best friend Kyou I love him' or.. you love... love me...?"

"Oh no," you quietly whimpered. A while back, during the Kyoko visit, a girl confessed to Kyou. It didn't go well. He didn't reciprocate her feelings and it ruined her whole trip. She ran crying. You were scared to experience his rejection of you.

"F/n-chan? F/n-chan... look at me." You shook your head against his back, refusing to let him see your pathetic crying face. "F/n-chan.. let go of my back," You shook your head again. "Now, F/n-chan," You shook your head once more. Trembling. He roughly shook you off his back and you stumbled back, whimpering. Immediately you dug the heels of your palms into your eyes. It hurt, but you couldn't bear the thought of Kyou seeing you in this ugly state.

"F/n-chan... please look at me," You shook your head again. And again. and again and again. You REFUSED to let him see you like this. He soon grew tired of this too and walked up close to you. He strongly gripped your wrists and tore your hands from your face. You wanted to move your head and neck so your bangs and hair would cover your face, but he stepped closer to you so your forehead was against his chest instead.

"Don't ignore me," He put his hands under your jaw, holding your head, and forced you to look at him. He had a stern look on his face. "What was that letter all about?"

That's it. You couldn't hold it anymore. You didn't want him to hear your weak voice but you couldn't handle this painful silence. You tried to be as loud as you could.

"I'm so sorry Kyou-kun! It was an accident! I swear! I didn't mean it! I-I-I was out of it! And feeling down! And-and I- I don't know but I'm just so so sorry!" Kyou noticed the other 3 staring at the both of you and pulled you out of the house and a little ways into the woods. As he pulled you you tried to reason with him. "I never meant for you to find out but I'm sure this whole thing will blow over. I'll realize that what I thought were feelings were actually just hormones and they'll pass! I-"

"YOU'RE NOT ANSWERING MY QUESTION!!" He shouted. You shrunk back. You wanted to run. You wanted to hide. Like a cowardus child. And you hated it. But it was too late for that now. He had grabbed onto your wrists again and was seemingly starting to increase his strength. You slowly looked up at him from under your eyelashes. "Do you love me...?"

Your bottom lip quivered as you slowly nodded your head keeping eye-contact. His eyes widened. "Say it."

"Wh-what??"

"I need to hear you say it,"

"Kyou-kun please don't make me say i-"

"SAY IT!!"

"I LOVE YOU!!"

"I-I'm sorry... but I do." You looked wayward. "Look... I'll.. I'll leave if you want. Skip town. Go back to America even! You'll never have to see my face. I can forget all about you, and you can-- MM!"

A hard pain went through your spine as you were slammed against the trunk of a tree. The bark scraping and scratching your bare skin, the cold finally making it'self known to you. There was pain on your inner lips from being pressed against your teeth but what was causing it? Against the skin of your lips was something soft being pressed against them. Then realization struck. Kyou's lips.

'Kyou is kissing me!!'

He pulled away and gulped down giant breaths. You both searched each other's faces, both expressions shocked. Then you both kissed again, wrapping your arms around each other's bodies.
