Feeling Emotions |Takashi Morinozuka|

The Wall Named Mori

For the next couple days, I avoided the host club. I felt as if it would be too awkward to talk to them. I mean, What was I thinking? Talking to Tamaki like that? Not that what I said wasn't true, but I could've been nicer about it.
Avoiding them was becoming more and more difficult, until today when they came to find me. I was in the library, where nodoby was even quiet, when I saw Haruhi heading towards me. I got up and headed towards the door only to smack into a wall. Only it wasn't a wall. It was Mori. I narrowly avoided falling flat on my ass. How you may ask? Oh you know, Mori throwing me over his shoulder. Normally I have no problem with heights, but when your 6 feet of the ground and could fall at any second you tend to be a tad bit terrified.
"Mori! Put me down!"

Silence. I sigh.
"Whatever," I grumble under my breath. "You meanie."

"Heard that." I gasp, shocked that Mori was talking to me. Success.
A few minutes later, He set me down in front of the doors to Music Room #3. I turned around to leave, but Mori caught my shoulders and spun me to face the double doors again. I turned around to look at Mori.
"I can't do this." He raises an eyebrow in response.

"I can't face him, he must hate me now."

"He doesn't hate you, He's hurt." He says stoicly.
I sigh and open the doors with confidence that I really didn't have. Tamaki looked up to me, eyes wide with surprise. I smiled down at him.

"I think," I said, sighing. " We need to talk. Alone."
He nods and gets up to leave. We walk to the rose gardens and sit on a bench.

"I'm sorry for what I said yesterday. However, It was true."

"What did you mean by that? That you had to defend yourself?"

I sigh. "Before you left France, I wasn't bullied because people knew you would defend me. However, when you left, People started to pick on me. Physically and Emotionally. Eventually, I cracked under the pressure. I couldn't let what was happening go any further. So, I learned Martial Arts and I stood up for myself, because you left me."

"I had to. They made me, Zafi."

"I know, I know they did. But it still hurt. You left and you didn't even say goodbye. I... I have trust issues now. Because you left."

Tamaki then crushed me in a hug, and with watery eyes, apologized over and over.
"It's okay, It's fine."
After that was said, we were crushed in a group hug. Except for Mori and Kyouya of course.
" You guys were listening?"

"Noooooooo." They all said in chorus, slightly creepy.

I sigh. " Whatever." Then we all head up to Music Room #3. All awkwardness between us, gone.
