Fruits Basket Keeping a secret

Mermaid

Meriah POV

I looked up at Tohru after she said that

"Where is it Tohru?" Yuki asked

"Do you remember before your guys found me?" She asked

"You were living in a good damn tent." Kyo said

"Well..."

"You lived in a tent?" I asked cutting her off

"Yes it's a long story but when I needed to wash up there was a pound that laded into a stream, it's not that far and it's pretty deep. Will that work Hatori?" She asked

"That's perfect." He said

"Now the question is are you able to walk Meriah?" Shigure asked looking at me then everyone did the same.

"I-I don't know actually" I said with a nervous look in case that I couldn't. I didn't want to get up but I really did need to get in the water. I did really miss it.

"Come one Meriah." Hatori said uncovering me

Yuki POV

"Yuki you and Kyo can go head and go to school, Tohru you stay here and help us find that pound alight." Shigure said to us

I don't want to leave Meriah but Shigure is right we have to go but I don't even the Kyo will go without Tohru. I thought to myself.

"I'm not going not without Tohru" Kyo said

"Kyo I'll be fine, and I'll be at school later." She said walking over to Kyo and taking his hand.

"Fine but I better see you there" Kyo said kissing her hand. He stood and walked out of the room.

I walked over to Meriah and sat on the bed "I'll see you at school later right" I ask trying to keep my feeling in

"We'll see Yuki. Depending if her fever goes down" Hatori said I kept looking at Meriah, then left I didn't know if that was going to be the last time I saw her but I had hope and faith that is wasn't

Meriah POV

I watched as Yuki walked out of the room. Then I looked at Hatori "You look like you can't walk. Tohru since you are the only one that can hold her can you help her." Hatori said

Shigure uncovered me and Tohru help me up and we went to where she said.

It only took us a few moments in Hatori's car. When we got up I looked at the pound I could feel that it was deeper which I was good for me. Tohru took off her shoe and socks and helped me into the water. Once I touched the water I turned my feet turning into my blue tail, and falling now sitting on the ground. I looked at Tohru who was amazed with my tail.

Hatori POV

Watching Meriah transform made me miss going in the water to see them to visit or to take care of them. When the light disappeared Mariah was sitting. Her hair once was in a ponytail was now down with her blue gem head peace on. She still had both her necklaces on one that matched her head peace but was light blue but turned dark blue when she hit the water, and the other was her water gem. She had also was wearing her princess crown on that had appeared. Her night gown that she was wearing was gone and she was wear a light blue mermaid bra. She looked back at me and I smiled and she smiled back at me. I could tell by the smile that she missed swimming

"I got it from here Tohru thank you" She said and got into water and disappearing

Meriah POV

While underwater I could feel my body tempter going down but not fully. Looking around I saw a shell and swam to it and picked it up, I looked at it and I thought of Yuki. I swam up to the serves and looked at everyone

"How do you feel Meriah?" Hatori asked

"I don't know" I said actually tell the truth

"Well come on so we can get you back to the house and check you tempter again." Shigure said

"Alright" Swimming back to the edge of the pound and got up and sat swinging my tail out of the water. Shigure walked over and placed a towel over my shoulders. "Thank you Shigure."

Hatori walked over picking me up and brought me to the car and placed me in it.

"Hatori how did you do that?" I heard Tohru asked

"While in her mermaid form we are allowed to pick her up and hold her. I was just worried about getting her here" He said then all of them got in the car and drove back to the house. I was still in my mermaid form so Hatori carried me up to my room and layed me down on my bed where I transformed back in time.

"That was close one, thank you"

"Your welcome" He said taking his thermometer out again "Now please open" I opened my mouth and he placed it in, after a few moment later he took it out and looked at it "Good your tempter is down" he placed his hand on my forehead "You still have a fever, but nothing rest won't fix." He said placing everything away.

I nodded and layed down. "Hatori"

"Yes" he said looking at me from the door

"Thank you for helping" I said then closed my eyes

"Your very welcome now please rest alright" He closed the door and I held that shell close thinking about Yuki and the feeling about being a mermaid.

Yuki POV

It was after school and I was in a hurry to get home to check on Meriah. I couldn't get her out of my mind, I was so worried about her. We well I made it home because I kinda left as soon as I could so I didn't bother waiting for Tohru and Kyo. I walked through the front door took off my shoes and went upstairs. Quickly as I could but not putting myself into an asthma attack because of my weak lungs. I got up the stair and to Meriah's room door. I knocked and opened it, once opening the door I walked in. I gave a sign is relieve when I saw her laying in her bed sound asleep. I gave a smile, I was super glad to see that she was ok.
