Big Sister Fujioka

Lobelia Girls' Academy Strikes Back!

"Haaaruhi-chan~ Jiiiin-chan~ Pleeease~ come out and play!"

Kyoya rolled his eyes at the childish nature of his friends, but couldn't deny that he was excited about spending another Saturday with Jin. After all, it had been two weeks since she and Honey-senpai had sparred, so the bruise on the brunette's side should have faded completely by now. Enough for him to casually slip his arm around her waist and not worry about hurting her, at least. It had been surprisingly difficult for him to go from almost constantly exchanging physical contact with the girl to very rarely, if at all.

If he hadn't gone through the withdrawal, however, Kyoya was 57% sure that he would've lost all self control by now and kissed Jin, witnesses be damned. After the unholy mixture of all the untimely interruptions and 'Go' signs from Jin herself, Kyoya was slowly losing his mind. Perhaps he should just ask her out, and the kiss could spawn from there?

Because, forgetting all of his concerns and personal fears, he did want her by his side. For the foreseeable, and unforeseeable future.

The apartment door opened and Kyoya brought his attention back into the real world. Where an angry looking man they didn't recognize was glaring at them from the darkness beyond the wood.

After staring at each other for a moment, the boys quickly walked away, apologizing for disturbing the man's morning. Kyoya was sure that they had been at the right door, but didn't say anything. Perhaps the Fujioka's had moved apartments without telling them? No, that didn't seem like something Jin would neglect to tell him.

"Hey! Hold on!" The man ran after them, managing to jump in front of their group and point back to the door, "Don't act like you don't recognize me, it's Ranka. Even cross-dressers get stubble in the morning. Get inside."

Hoping to not anger the girl's father and be allowed to spend the day with them, the hosts obeyed. However, they huddled around the front door, not wanting to be trapped inside should the man turn violent. Mostly, Tamaki was the one who was worried, but Kyoya was also hovering on the cusp of the door frame.

Thankfully, that concern didn't last. The moment Tamaki offered their present for entering the Fujioka household, Ranka was back into his cheerful mood. He was even squishing Tamaki's face into the floor, which was always a good sign.

"Oh, I'm terribly sorry, I've forgotten my manners! It's wonderful to see you all, of course!" He opened the box and squealed before quickly stuffing half of a pastry in his mouth.

Noting the lack of the female gender in the room, Honey bounced to the front of the group, "Are Haru-chan and Jin-chan home?"

"I'm sorry, boys, but Jin's working an early shift at the animal shelter and Haruhi is out with some girl friends. I suppose you can visit Jin, I'm sure she'd love to see you all, but I honestly have no idea where Haruhi went. Oh, well. Girls will be girls."

Tamaki was clearly downtrodden at not seeing Haruhi today, but the twins quickly scooped him up by his armpits, "Come on, Boss."

"Let's go see, Jin-senpai."

"Maybe they have some more puppies to play with." They pointed after Kyoya, who was leading the 3rd year boys back down the balcony, "Kyoya-senpai's clearly game."

The blond rolled his eyes, but he was smiling, "Alright then. Let's go."

As they went to follow the other three, Ranka hummed around the strawberry flavored mousse, "You know... I didn't really recognize any of Haruhi's new friends who picked her up this morning. She's never really mentioned them before. But then again, she's never really made a big deal about where her friends were from. I guess not even if they attend Lobelia Academy."
