I was serving my guests when Hikaru requested some sweets for me to make. I gladly fulfilled his order and he came up and took them. I maintained composure just barley but he kept coming around doing many things to make me smirk and chuckle.

But by closing, Kyoya was not happy.

"We have received many complaints that Hikaru isn't paying attention to his guests and is more concerned with Yuuto-senpai. And there is complaints about Yuuto although it's only about how you don't smile for them like you do for Hikaru." Kyoya concludes, closing his black book and looking at the two of us who sat with each other.

"Yeah and Yuuto-senpai usually is ahead in her baking, but Hikaru kept distracting her and so we got our sweets late." Haruhi adds making Kyoya sigh.

"This is becoming a problem." Kyoya states.

"I apologize, I wasn't-" I start but Hikaru interrupts me. 

"That's my fault, not Yuuto's. I don't get to see her until this time." Hikaru defends, making my cheeks tint.

"You two figure out a solution to this. We will start losing business if this happens again." Kyoya orders and we nod.

Hikaru walked me home and he decided to stay over for a while to discuss the Host Club. We were both sitting on the couch together and trying to think a way around this.

"Even if I saw you more, I still wouldn't be able to help it." Hikaru says sheepishly making me blush.

"Karou can start doing ordering and picking up your sweets." I suggest.

"I don't want to spend less time with you." He argues and I sigh.

"There's no way around it." I say sadly.

"We could..." He starts and I look him straight in the eyes.

"No crazy ideas." I say and now he gives up.

"You could just tell everyone you're a girl." He suggests and I sigh.

"At this point I feel like that's up to Kyoya because of how it'll effect things." I say and he sighs.

"We could quit." He says and my eyes go wide.

"H-Hikaru, you can't be-"

"I am serious. The only reason we can't spend time with each other is because we're busy with hosting and you baking." He says and I'm speechless.

"Think about everyone else, we can't be selfish and quit. And I can't take you away from your brother. And the. There's Tamaki, Kyoya, Haruhi, Mitsukuni, Mori-"

"I don't care-" I cover his mouth quickly.

"You can't say that. And you like hosting, I like baking." I reason.

"I can host you and-" I give him a hard look. "Well how do you even feel when I do the brotherly love stuff?" He asks and I blush.

"I-It's a little weird-"

"Do you get jealous?" He asks and I'm getting red.

"Hikaru, drop that subject. We need to focus on a-"

"I thought we were quitting." He says but I shake my head.
