The Missing Piece Chapter 19, an ouran high school host club fanfic | FanFiction

As much as she hated to admit it Haruhi was finding Tamaki kissing her very...enjoyable, but as soon as that thought entered her mind she immediately pushed back on his chest. "I'm sorry," she murmurs not able to look up at his face and trying to figure out why she was blushing even slightly.

"I should be the one apologizing. I shouldn't have done that." He tells her sighing

"No not for that I...I'm sorry, but I don't return your feelings." She tells him, still not able to look at him in the eyes.

"So you didn't enjoy that?" he asks lifting her chin, in order for her to look at his face. He had been prepared to get turned down, but it still hurt.

"It's not that, it's just that I..." she stammers not really sure how to end her sentence.

"...Haruhi look me in the eyes and tell me, are you in love with somebody else?" he asks

'Why is he making this so hard?' she wonders 'I'm in love with Kyoya, but why am I finding turning Tamaki-sempai down so hard to do.'

"Haruhi you know you can be honest to me, so please tell me, are you turning me down because you love somebody else?" he asks again.

"...yes, I'm in love with someone else Tamaki-sempai." She states looking him right in the face.

"Well I had a bad feeling" he sighs

"You knew?" she asks honestly curious.

"With the way you've been acting lately I had a feeling you were in love, but I didn't actually know of course until now." He tells her.

'Damn have I been that obvious?' she curses herself and again wishes she was as good at hiding her emotion as Kyoya was.

"I know you won't tell me much else, but are you in love with someone else in the club?" he asks

"I don't want to lie to you anymore Sempai so, yes I am in love with another member of the host club." She admits 'Why am I always the one answering these questions again? Oh... that's right because everyone still thinks Kyoya is too cold-hearted to be going out with someone.'

It's safe to assume you won't tell me who?" he asks

"No" she states, "but I do want to apologize for not feeling the same way about you Sempai."

"It's my own fault really" he sighs "But if whoever it is hurts you in any way-"

"Then you and the others will be the first to know, but I know I can trust him." She smiles holding out her hand "I hope this doesn't come between us."

"It doesn't" he states taking her hand. "I love you Haruhi, but if you are happy then I will accept that."

"Thank you...Tamaki." She smiles back and moves forward to embrace him.

He's shocked for a moment, but hugs her back. He is upset about having to let her go, but if whoever she was dating truly made her happy then he wasn't going to argue with her. 'It has to be Hikaru or Kaoru she's in love with; no one else would make any sense.' He sighs inwardly, as she breaks away. "Haruhi...what were you talking to the twins about before I walked into the room?" he asks, as she begins grabbing her things.

"If you knew I was talking to them, why did you come out of the room almost naked?" she asks

"I thought you left with them" he admits "I really didn't think anyone was still in the clubroom."

She sighs "they wanted to ask me if I'd let them make clothes for me to wear on our trip to New York at the end of next week."

"Oh that's right, you guys leave what...Saturday morning?" he asks
