A GENTLE PUSH IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
A Fruits Basket Fanfic

Written by Miyu, Vampire Princess

AUTHOR'S NOTE:
This one is for Mona-chan, because she asked so nicely...and a long time ago I might add. ^^ Threesome (Haru/Tohru/Yuki). Lemon (of course), mostly PWP (but there is a plot...I think).

"Are you sure this is all right, Hatsuharu-san?"

"This is perfect. Yuki will be so surprised."

"Ano...what was my excuse again?"

Haru smiled down at the shy young girl beside him. He couldn't believe he'd talked her into this. Of course, he was shortcoming on the details, but he knew if she thought it would help Yuki, she'd play along.

And what they were doing was all for Yuki.

"You were too tired to think straight. It's logical enough. Don't worry, Tohru-kun. He'll go with it."

"Okay."

The poor boy. Yuki'd been so swamped with work from the student council that he'd barely had a moment to himself in two weeks. Haru, feeling for his cousin and wanting to help Tohru ease some of her worry, had come up with a plan. He just hoped it would go just as he thought. Otherwise, he might get his ass kicked.

"I think he's home," Tohru started, hearing a noise downstairs.

"Just stay calm, everything will be fine," Haru replied. He leaned forward to place a kiss on her forehead. His eyes widened, then closed when he realized that it wasn't her forehead he was kissing.

Tohru was startled when she lifted her head to look at Haru and found her lips pressed to his. She should've pulled away. Should have. But couldn't. There was something rather...exciting about how their lips fit together. About how they brushed over each other just right. She leaned closer when she should've leaned back, moaning when she should've told herself to stop.

Neither of them heard the bedroom door snap open. But a loud gasp did draw Haru's attention. He immediately withdrew from the kiss, albeit a bit reluctantly. Tohru may have been an innocent but she was an excellent kisser. He stood from the bed as well, turning to look at the owner of the room.

"Konnichiwa, Yuki."

Yuki stood by his door, transfixed. Haru registered in his mind quickly but it took him a minute to process Tohru's presence. What was going on? And in his room yet? Finally anger flooded his features and he opened his mouth to speak. It shut quickly as he opted for another approach. He turned on his heel and left the room, closing the door with enough intensity that it nearly came out of its guides.

Haru gave chase. This isn't how he'd planned things. But damn if that hadn't been a good kiss. He shook his head, opening the door and stepping into the hallway.

"Wait, Yuki."

The young man stopped just before he reached the stairs. He turned on Haru, ready to shout a few nasty choice words, but stopped himself. Haru looked...sad? Concerned? Did he really see things or was there something that needed to be said?

"Look, I talked Tohru into doing something for you. She's been really concerned about you lately. You're always so busy."

"Honto ni?"

"Hai."

"So then, what was it I just saw," Yuki asked as calmly as possible.

"An accident," Haru replied. "Look I went to kiss her on the forehead, she looked up. That simple."

"Sou desu ka?"

Haru nodded. "Hai. Yuki, I know you care about her. I'm not going to try to take her from you...not like that silly cat anyway."

Yuki blushed a little at his cousin's words. He couldn't deny that he felt...something...towards Tohru. He just didn't know what. With a sigh, he averted his eyes to the ground.

"I have been very busy lately and I haven't spent as much time with her as I normally would," he admitted.

Haru smiled to himself. He hadn't meant to lay on a guilt trip, but it worked. "Then why don't you go talk to her? She's been worried. She'll be happy to talk."

Yuki looked up and nodded. He stepped past Haru and took the four or five steps to his room. He paused for a moment with one hand on the door. He looked to Haru, who nodded in return, then opened the door. Holding his breath he peered inside.

Tohru was still sitting on the bed, one of his covers draped around her shoulders. Nothing was amiss save for one thing. Tohru was crying.

"Honda-san?!"

Haru followed Yuki into the room, wondering what was the matter. He watched as Yuki kneeled beside the bed and Tohru, gently taking one of her hands in his. Again, this wasn't according to plan, but he couldn't have planned it better.

"Gomen, Honda-san."

The girl shook her head, her head was already bowed low. Leaning over she rested the top of her head against Yuki's shoulder. "Iie, I'm the *sob* one who should apologize. *sniff* I wasn't *sob* thinking. But Haru's idea *sob* sounded *sniff* good, and I just wanted to make you *sniff* happy. You haven't smiled *sob* for days."

Yuki shifted beside Tohru, sitting on the edge of the bed with her. He switched her hand from his right to his left so that it was practically draped across his lap. She lifted her head when he rose and lowered it as he sat down again. They both sighed as Yuki rested his cheek against the top of her head.

"It's all right, Tohru. Don't cry, onegai."

Tohru seemed to relax against Yuki. She didn't even realize that Yuki had called her by her first name. Only Haru smiled to himself.

"You're *sniff* not angry?" she asked.

Yuki pulled back to look down at her. "Iie. I'm not angry." Her tears began to slow at his words. He leaned forward to place a kiss to the top of her head, a gesture he never would've had the courage to do any other time. He was surprised, however, when his lips pressed against yielding, pliant flesh instead of soft, textured hair.

Tohru gasped, finding herself once again enveloped in a light kiss. She hadn't expected to meet Yuki's lips as she looked up at him. She just wanted to be certain that he wasn't upset. Would this make him upset? She moved to pull away, but her body once again betrayed her. She was stuck in place not only by her own curiosity, but by a gentle hand on her left thigh.

Yuki couldn't believe his luck. He placed his hand on her thigh in hopes of halting her as she moved away. He was shocked, and pleased, when she didn't. Emboldened by this response, he pressed his lips more forcefully to hers, parting his lips just slightly so the tip of his tongue could sneak through. It rubbed gently against her upper lip, coaxing another response from her.

Tohru gasped at the touch of Yuki's tongue, then moaned as she felt herself melt. The tip of her tongue darted between parted lips and moved against his tantalizingly. When he moaned in response, she became emboldened. Her tongue rubbed along his bottom lip before sneaking its way into his mouth. She leaned forward to deepen the kiss, placing one of her hands on his thigh to steady herself.

Yuki nearly jumped when he felt Tohru's hand on his thigh. Audibly, he sighed, parting his lips and allowing Tohru's tongue to meet his. Their tongues dueled, the muscles fighting, retracting then fighting again. His hand squeezed her thigh and her hand squeezed back in response. Slowly, so as not to surprise or frighten her, Yuki lowered himself to the bed, coaxing Tohru to do the same or break the kiss.

Tohru didn't realize she was being lowered until her head hit something soft and the blanket fell from her shoulders. She opened her eyes briefly to see what was going on. Her eyes stared up at Yuki's closed eyes, her lips and tongue continuing the kiss they had started. Nothing else seemed amiss, and Yuki certainly didn't seem distracted. Therefore she closed her eyes and resumed her previous activity, adding a new one as her hand moved from his thigh to his hip while the other tangled itself in Yuki's hair.

It was Yuki's turn to open his eyes. He could see Tohru's face, eyes closed and seemingly focused in concentration. His hands wanted to move too, but the way he lying above her wouldn't allow it. So he pulled up his knees, straddling her legs as they dangled off the bed. His hands now free, they roamed from her hips upward until they reached a destination. Once her breasts swelled in his hands, he closed his eyes again and gave himself over to the kiss they shared.

Haru's smile turned into a smirk. They had long since forgotten that he was still in the room. But that was okay with him. For now. This is what he had wanted. He wanted Yuki to have Tohru. They simply needed a gentle push in the right direction. But damned if he didn't want her, too, now. Or at least, some of her. He'd meant what he said to Yuki in the hallway. By Kami! Were they ever going to break that kiss for air?!

As if by his bidding, Yuki and Tohru pulled apart, each one reluctant to stop but the need for air compelling them to do so. Through half-lidded eyes they stared at each other, their chests heaving as air poured into their lungs. Yuki's hands remained on her breasts, lightly squeezing and kneading even as their breathing calmed a little. Tohru moaned, arching her back off the bed, trying to offer him more, to ease a growing ache in her stomach that she was certain would kill her if it exploded.

After getting a good look at Tohru, he realized what the girl was wearing. He had mistaken it for a dress at first, but now that he was closer - oh so much closer - he registered the silk under his hands, the spaghetti straps on her shoulders and realized that he was sitting on her bare legs and not the dress. It was some form of lingerie for sure, but where did she get it, and why? His mind immediately turned to Haru. Is this what his cousin had planned? He turned to look for Haru, but was stopped by Tohru's beautiful, longing voice.

"Yuki...onegai."

He looked down at her a moment, eyes widening as her hips lifted against him. Desire flooded his system and instinct took over as he lowered himself for another kiss. His lips swept across hers, stifling her whimpers and swallowing a groan. His hands reached from her breasts downward to her hips. Inch by inch he gathered the material of the dress in his grasp until his fingers touched bare skin. His fingertips grazed along her upper thighs, her stomach and her ribs until they rested on her breasts once again.

Tohru fisted both hands in Yuki's hair as his kiss traveled from her lips to her throat. She was awash in sensation, unable and unwilling to control it. She pushed her hips upward again, grinding herself into Yuki as best she could. She moaned into the kiss when he pushed back, spreading her legs apart slightly with one knee. She wrapped her leg around his to keep him in place, her hands carefully exploring his neck, shoulders and upper arms.

Yuki groaned, taking the kisses even lower as Tohru's fingers slid over his chest and undid the buttons of his shirt. He placed a light lick to the swell of one breast before sitting up quickly to divest himself of the hindering material. Tossing it aside, he leaned over and kissed that one spot again, his hands squeezing her breasts in reassurance. His lips engulfed one hardened peak and he reveled in the writhing movements it caused.

As he balanced himself with one hand on her other breast, his other traveled lower, skimming over her stomach to the waistband of her panties. He pulled the material aside as her hips bucked upward again, his fingers sliding under the cotton material in search of something warm, wet, and provocatively tight.

Tohru gasped as Yuki's fingers slid into her nest of curls and lower into her welcoming sex. Her fingers grasped at his shoulders, a moan escaping her throat. She pressed her breast harder against his lips as one finger slid inside of her wet sheath. She whimpered as a second one entered her and moaned his name as he began working them in and out of her center.

"Yuki...AH!"

Heat poured over Yuki and suddenly it felt like he was still wearing too much clothing. And truthfully he was. His erection was fully engorged, pressing against the confines of his pants and his underwear. He needed to free himself and fast.

As if hearing his silently plea, Tohru's hands roamed downward from his shoulders to his stomach, caressing tiny circles in time to his movements into and out of her core. Finally they stopped on his hips, tracing the edge of the waistband before trying to unbutton his pants.

Haru's consciousness got the better of him and he almost considered leaving. Almost. He had no real desire to see Yuki naked, although the view of Tohru he received from his angle kept him in place. He licked his lips unconsciously and bit back a groan as he felt himself harden even more than he already was. She looked absolutely delicious spread on the bed as she was. Her parted thighs gave him a clear view of her cotton-covered sex and he didn't have to imagine what Yuki was doing to her with his fingers. He stopped himself from stepping further into the room. He had to let this play out. He could join them later if it was okay.

Yuki gasped, biting into the flesh of Tohru's right breast as she pushed his pants and boxers downward. He gasped again, moaning her name as his cock bobbed free of its confines and her fingers wrapped around the turgid length. He added a third finger into her hot depths, gritting his teeth as she grasped his cock in a steel vise-like grip.

She exploded from within, the heat and pressure in her stomach finally bursting and flooding into her system. She felt light, floating and her limbs tingled as if they'd been asleep. She cried out Yuki's name loud enough for the entire house to hear. Her vaginal muscles contracted around his fingers as they stilled within her. Her body slowly began to relax and she felt as if she were falling, closing her eyes against a wave of white light.

Yuki placed a light kiss to Tohru's chin before sitting up to rid himself of his pants and boxers. He then pulled Tohru's panties down, taking special care to pause once in a while in case she would argue. But it was too late for argument when the white cotton reached her ankles. With a flick of her foot they fell to the floor. He stepped back to appreciate the view she presented, but lust soon took over and he was on the bed again, settling himself between her legs and trying to make her as comfortable as possible.

"Tohru?"

She opened her eyes and blinked dreamily. "Yuki, why do I still ache?"

He smiled, chuckling. "Does it hurt?"

She shook her head. "No, but...I need...something."

"So do I," he replied, placing a light kiss on her lips.

"Is it the same thing I need?"

"I think so, but--"

"But what?"

Yuki sighed, kissing her lightly again. "I don't want to hurt you."

"Show me, Yuki-kun. Show me, and I'll tell you if it hurts too much."

Yuki smiled again. "All right. Just tell me to stop if it hurts too much."

With that he crushed his lips to hers, containing her senses in a searing kiss. Her hands grasped at his upper arms as he hovered above her, his hips lightly pressing into her. She moaned, pressing her hips into his in response. It took little adjusting as she lifted her legs, pressing her knees against his sides. He held onto one knee as he continued to support himself with his other arm.

With a sigh, he sunk into her, the tip of his cock pressing into her slick folds. She arched, taking him inside of her. Slowly he pushed inside until he saw her flinch. He paused in mid-stroke, not wanting to hurt her. He was surprised when she grasped the sides of his face and pulled him down for another kiss. As their lips met he pushed himself through her barrier, swallowing her cry of pain and easing it with the soothing touch of his lips to her cheeks and forehead.

"You didn't tell me to stop," he whispered in her ear.

"I...I didn't want...you to stop," she whispered back, placing a wet kiss to his shoulder before he pulled away. "Don't stop, Yuki. Onegai."

His body agreed with him before his mind could form the answer. His hips moved slowly, pulling and pushing his length. After a few tentative strokes he began to build a rhythm. Tohru arched into him, trying to take him deeper and during one thrust she did so, causing him to brush against an ultra-sensitive spot inside of her. She moaned his name, writhing even more beneath him.

Tohru met him thrust for thrust as his pace increased. All too soon she felt that ball of energy in her belly begin to expand. It would explode soon. Too soon. But she wasn't afraid of it this time. In fact, as the ball of energy exploded in an array of colors before her eyes, she welcomed the sensations, arching against Yuki and allowing him to hit that one sweet spot one last time. She was devoid of sight but she could feel him go rigid above her, feel his body tense as it reached its peak and shudder with sensation.

Yuki barely had enough presence of mind to collapse beside Tohru on the bed. How embarrassing it would've been if he'd transformed just after reaching orgasm. Actually he was quite amazed by the fact that he didn't change during the act. He had always pictured himself slipping at the one critical moment and he thanked the gods that helped him make this the perfect time he had always wanted. Closing his eyes, he allowed his body to relax, his breathing to calm and his blood to cool. He felt Tohru's lips on his cheek and he blushed, smiling sleepily.

Tohru sat up slowly. Her legs ached a little when she dangled them off the edge of the bed. She was about to readjust herself when she saw something move towards her. She blinked several times, hoping it was her imagination but when she felt fingers on her cheek, the pad of a thumb press against her lips, she knew it wasn't her imagination. Her mind briefly registered Haru before slipping into another lust filled coma.

A moan caught Yuki's attention. He opened his eyes and turned his head towards Tohru. Was she hurt? Suddenly concerned, he lifted himself on his elbows. It took a moment for his befuddled mind to realize that Tohru was all right. She was sitting up beside him, looking up. He followed her gaze to his younger cousin, Haru.

Haru only stared back, his thumb lightly rubbing at Tohru's swollen lips. His eyes seemed to convey his need and the bulge in his black denim pants confirmed it. The intensity of his gaze told Yuki that nothing was going to happen without his approval. He didn't even get near Tohru when she tried to stand, instead backing up a step and keeping his hands right where they were.

If it was a threesome Haru wanted, Yuki wasn't going to argue. He deserved something for making this happen. This is what he had planned, isn't it? And the fact that he was willing to back off touched Yuki. He knew Haru cared about him, loved him even, and he'd meant what he'd said earlier. As Haru began to withdraw Yuki nodded, but searched his mind for another way to approach the situation.

Haru already had that figured out. He lifted Tohru under her arms and placed her on Yuki's lap as he rolled to his back. She folded her legs under her, straddling Yuki but facing Haru. He positioned her just right, Yuki's hands on her hips helping him to do so. The older cousin ground his hips upward into Tohru, causing her to drop her head back and moan. Haru used the distraction to lightly kiss her lips while he undid the belt buckle and buttons of his pants. He was a bit disappointed because in Tohru's new position he couldn't see any of her naked form, but it mattered little when he saw the hungry look in Tohru's eyes as he shucked his unbuttoned pants downward.

Tohru unconsciously reached for Haru's engorged manhood, using it to pull him closer to her, Yuki and the bed. Her fingers curled around him, lightly stroking over him in time to the movement of Yuki's hips beneath her. She lifted herself a little, unwittingly positioning herself above Yuki's newly swollen flesh and when he thrust upward again she pushed downward, causing him to slip inside her again. She moaned, eyes going wide at the sensations this new position caused.

Haru was concerned that he'd be forgotten, but he sighed happily as Tohru continued to stroke his cock in time with the pace she was setting on top of Yuki. Very carefully he inched forward as she leaned over, licking the head of his erection like an ice cream cone. She did this several times, causing him to hiss. His dick twitched at the sensation and it took every ounce of control he had not to grab her head and force himself into her mouth.

As if he'd asked aloud, she took the head of his cock into her mouth, her tongue swirling around it, tasting and teasing. As she rose on Yuki she took another inch into her mouth. When she sat back down she released some of him, careful not to release all of him. The pace increased and so did her sucking.

Tohru felt like a mass of nerves, torn between the sensations of Yuki beneath her and Haru in front of her. This was like nothing she'd experienced before and thought she never would again. Her legs moved her up and down over Yuki as fast as they could go, her mouth taking more and more of Haru as she went. She was a good three inches away from engulfing him totally when she felt the beginnings of another orgasm building in her. She moaned, shuddering slightly as she tried to hold it off.

Haru gasped as Tohru moaned with him in her mouth. The sound sent waves into his system, causing him to shudder with her. She was close and so was he. He was hoping she'd be able to envelope his entire length, but was pleased when she took what she could and stroked the rest of him with her fingers.

Yuki arched, grasping her hips tighter and practically slamming into her from below. He heard her moan, heard Haru's in response and knew that they were both close. Good, because he wasn't sure if he could hold back much longer. Two more thrusts and he let go, releasing himself inside of her with such power that Tohru cried out around Haru's length inside her mouth. It was stifled by the rush of fluid from Haru's cock. She tried to swallow as fast as she could, but couldn't quite get it all. A small amount dribbled down the side of her mouth. Haru slipped his waning member from her mouth and kissed her lightly, his tongue reaching out to clean the mess.

What happened after that was somewhat of a blur. Tohru remembered being lifted, remembered Yuki moving beneath her. Gentle hands helped her to lie down and she felt something soft under her head. A pillow maybe? She felt someone take her hand. It was Yuki. He lifted it to his mouth and kissed her palm before cradling it to his chest. They stared at each other for a brief moment before sleep settled in, claiming them both.

Haru smiled as he stepped away from the scene. Just as he had planned. Well, the ending had been an added extra...not that he hadn't hoped. Quietly he fixed himself and left them to sleep. As he closed the door, he wondered what Shigure would say when he found out, or Kyo. If either of them tried to cause any trouble, Haru would take care of it.

He'd do it for Yuki and for Tohru.

All THEY needed, was a gentle push in the right direction.
