The Host Club's Florist - An OHSHC Fanfiction

❀ Chapter 42 : Lilac❀

Hey- Read the authors note at the end of the chapter will u? 

It'll make things easier for all of us :)

"I thought you said-"

"I know what I said Haruhi!"

"Then why haven't you? We've been home a couple days now," Haruhi's voice groaned through the phone speaker. 

Sumire yanked her old bed coverings off with a huff, "Because I don't know how to."

"It's Kyoya-senpai just walk up and ask him, what's he gonna do bite your head off?"

"He can say he doesn't like me and it'd be awkward and weird and then I'd have to deal with that everytime we're together!"

Sounds of shuffling made it's way through the phone static, "Don't be ridiculous, you two are close enough that I can almost see you two eating each others face off when you look at each other."

"Ew gross Haruhi, I can say the same for you and Tamaki-senpai why don't you go ask him if he likes you?"

"Because I'm not the one that said I was going to ask," Haruhi replied, the sound of water running in the background.

"Well, it's just not the right time," Sumire sighed flattering a new blanket on top of her bed, "Besides what do I do if he says yes?"

"Then you two can go date, and he's going to say yes so go ask him already, I gotta go I'm gonna shower."

"Ugh fine, I'll text you later," Sumire hung up plopping down on her newly made bed staring at the ceiling.

It was a few hours later and Sumire was finally heading home after a small urgent matter at the flower shop, her grandmother needing some backup as a really large order of flowers. Sumire was a tad surprised that it wasn't going to be sent to Ouran, but a theater in the next town over. 

It was a rather windy day, she had taken out her bike for the ride, leisurely peddling through the streets enjoying the air. 

A small buzz from her left side pocket caught her attention and looked down reaching to see what the notification was. 

A loud screech instinctively made her  grip the brakes  making her jolt forwards but it was too late, the strong impact had sent her and her bike flying a few feet landing in the middle of the street. 

"Miss? Miss! Are you okay?," muffled voices echoed in Sumires ears as she tried to get up, but if the steady warm flow on the side of her head was any indication, she wasn't in the best condition to respond.

"Oh my gosh, call an ambulance!," the same voice shouted, murmurs surrounding her body, "Stay with me miss!"

And then it was all black.

It wasn't everyday that the entire host club received a text message from Kyoya, but what followed was the immediate departure of the whole gang towards the hospital, save Tamaki making a stop to pick up Haruhi. 

"Kyoya-senpai!" Hikaru and Kaoru jogged up to Kyoya who was in the lobby looking like he hasn't slept, he probably didnt. In the distance Mori and Honey was also racing over, Honey in his bed clothes. "What happened? Is Sumire okay?" Kaoru panted out looking frazzled.

"A hit and run crash. She's in the operating room right now-"

"Kyoya! Were here!" Tamaki cut in running over, however Haruhi was faster, " Kyoya-senpai! Is Sumire-"

"She's alive, as I was saying she is in the operating room right now. It seems that she has had a rather severe head injury, they are patching it up right now."

"Oh my god," Haruhi gasped looking teary backing up to Tamaki who embraced her trying to calm her down.

"Did they catch the car Kyo-chan?" Honey asked, his cutesy facade replaced with an intense glare backed up by Mori.

"I have my force tracking it down, I'll have them find that car if that's the last thing I do."

A few more minutes passed and they eventually settled in the seats outside the operating room, Kyoya had Sumire's grandmother notified but couldn't leave the shop unattended, her last words to Kyoya on a call being, "Take care of Sumire, please. I can't lose her too."

"Kyoya," Tamaki nudged Kyoya's arm lightly, "Are you okay?"

He nodded silently, not trusting his voice at the moment. At a spur of the moment decision he had slightly sugarcoated the extent of Sumire's injuries. 

The doctor had done a quick checkup under his direct order and came back with some damning results. In addition her head injury, a broken arm and several spots of bruising covered her body, the doctor blocking him when he tried to see for himself. The doctor had left to do a more thorough one per his demand.

Kyoya knew that look the doctor had, he had seen it time and time again as he spent time growing up and learning the family business. It was a look that said, "It's bad, and it wont do you any good to see it up close" kind of bad. 

He only hoped that Sumire would pull through.

Real talk, how would y'all like this to end? (answer or I'll kill everyone in the book) [im joking, maybe. Theres like a hundred active readers of this book and istg to y'all if y'all ignore this XD]

a) Sumire dies (this would happen if y'all don't stop me /jk)

b) Kyoya and Sumire get together finally but it'll end there and I wont go up to the Ouran fair episode. (But I'll write up specials  like fluffs, scenarios or maybe a lemon after the story as bonuses because ily)

c) Kyoya and Sumire get together but I write up until the Ouran fair (no specials because omg we'd end up at probably 80 chapters at the rate of my story progress and thats a crap ton of work and ngl i'm getting pretty burnt out and its only chapter 42)

I'm letting y'all choose because idk how I want this to go either. I have a ton of story ideas for different animes and fandoms but I wanna stick this one out to the end. 

So for the love of god, choose. The first option to get 20+ comments would be the way the story goes. (so vote istg)

Until then no updates, hopefully by friday next week we'd have the votes so I can start back up again lol.

(Author returning to check on this, it is not friday, in fact it's been a good couple weeks lol. Hoping to get this thing going again by The end of January or the start of February ;-;)
