Bloody Cravings (ohshc)

Chapter 14 (A Challenge from Lobelia Girls' Academy!)

"Kyoya?" Tamaki walked up to him with a large smile. "Why don't you look excited about the exposition?" His voice was as cheery as usual.

"Because I don't see the point, nor the excitement." Kyoya pushes up his glasses and starts writing in his black book.

"What exposition?" I ask, tilting my head in confusion.

Tamaki's smile grows even wider, causing me to take a step back. "Ouran hosts a cultural exposition annually. Drama and choir clubs from different schools are all invited!"

The host members go into the dressing rooms to go put their knight costumes on. Although I was supposed to change, I didn't quite feel up to it. A couple minutes after getting dressed and sitting in their usual couch positions, two girls came walking in. "Welcome ladies." They all said in unison.

Tamaki sat up, holding up his sword. "Well, well, well, you ladies must be from a different school. Frankly, I'm kind of surprised he noticed the different uniforms. "I certainly hope we haven't startled you. We love first-time guest." He walks towards them "I'm glad you've come, princesses." He does a heroic pose. "My darlings. Even if the world was to be destroyed, I'd put my life on the line as your faithful knight and servant." I start cracking up from my tea cart spot, putting my hand over my mouth to muffle it. "I'll protect you." He gets on one knee.

"Oh my, do you really think you'd be able to protect us? That's awfully arrogant of you, wouldn't you agree?" A tall one said with light brown hair and a red and white uniform. "If you think that's what a women wants to hear, then you're wrong." Tamaki looked stunned.

"Come on, give him a break, sister Suzuran." A shorter girl with the same uniform says, standing next to the other one. Men are just lowly life forms who don't care about any but perpetuating their testosterone leading image. By protecting us, he's actually trying to disguise the fact that he is actually week and is unable to protect himself."

"You're such a clever girl, Hinagiku." The other ones states.

Tamaki stands back up, resting his sword over his shoulder. "Isn't that a little harsh? What do women like you want to hear?"

I start studying their outfits, noticing they look familiar. Out of no where, a deep, familiar voice says, "Maybe that you'll never leave her alone." Looking past the two girls, I see a tall brunette and my eyes widen. She was twirling Haruhi around as she says, "If we fight, it will be together. If we fail, we fail together. Even if I were to die, I would never leave your side, my love." She kisses Haruhi's hand.

"Benibara, we thought you'd never show." The girls walk up to her. I break tea cup when I hear her name, before storming out. I could hear some of what was being said, but I ignored it and kept going.

A little while later, I come running back. "I forgot my damn bag." I grab it, not noticing who's there and who's not. When I turn and around to head out, Mori is standing in front of me, looking at me. I sigh, looking around and seeing that we are the only ones in the room. I take a step to the side to walk past him, but he takes the same step to block me. I cross my arms. "Yes?" All he does is grunt, so I try to walk past him again, but he blocks me. "What do you want, Mori?"

"Sit." He points to a chair. I sit down and he sites next to me. "Why did you run?" I raise my eyebrows since I'm pretty sure this is the most I've ever heard come out of his mouth.

I lean back and put my feet up on the table. "I don't know what you are talking about." I notice him look at my hands as I chipped nail polish of my nails so I stopped. He leaned forward and narrowed his eyes a little, causing a little fear to strike me, which I found odd since I could take him out in a second. "Why does it matter to you?" He sits in silence, his eyes narrowing a bit more. "Fine." They soften again. "I ran because Beni-Man-Hating-Bara and I use to be lovers before I started school here. It was nothing serious, and it didn't leave me heart broken, but she hurt me bad."

"How?" I shake my head and stand up. "Sit." He kicks me at the feet and I fall back in the chair.

"I told her stuff and she told others. And it's not the fact that people knew what i had told her. I just find it the most hurtful when someone does that, no matter what I told or the situation. And as a vampire, anger is always much worse. It's another reason why it ended before it got serious. I have no feelings for her. She just makes me angry and I would've killed her if I didn't leave. Can I go now?" He nods and we both stand. He grabs me and holds me. I push him away, but smile. "It's not a big deal, I'm just an emotional pussy." I look up and notice him smile a little. "Anyway. I plan on getting wasted tonight. I should start. Would you like to join?"

As Mori opened his mouth to answer, the hosts, except Haruhi, came walking back in holding dresses. "What the hell are you up to?" I sigh, looking at them.

"You'll see." Tamaki says quickly before they all rush into the changing room, including Mori.

A few minutes later, they come back out in make up and dress, while Mori just wore a fancy tux. I mumble the word, idiots, as I grab my bag and leave.

Much later, on the way home, Haruhi called me to tell me about the boy's scheme. After hanging up, I take a detour to the liquor store then to Kyoya's house. I sneak in through his bedroom window and sit on his couch, minutes before he walks in. "Hey. I heard about what you did for Haruhi. I thought maybe you could use a drink," He opens his mouth to speak, but I cut him off. "And don't try to say that it benefited you. I know it didn't." I open the bottle and hand it to him.

He sets down his bag, takes off his jacket, and loosens his tie. "Thanks.."I smile faintly as he take a big swig. "Hey, Willow?"

"Yes?" I look over at him.

"What are your fully honest opinion of me?" I take a deep breath and look over at him.

To be continued.. I'm so sorry about the crappy chapter and taking so long to publish. It's been pretty hectic for me lol.

On a side note, yes, a lot of the dialogue was taken from the show, not my brain.

And the song at tbe top, in my opinion, represents Willow.
