XXXVIII

Schoolwork and life has decided to bitch slap me in the face.

-

"Takashi," I slapped his arm in reply to his perverted statement, "shut up." His face lit up and he sat me in the passenger seat of his car. I relaxed into the soft padded seat and watched as Takashi slid into the driver's seat. I stared longingly at his growing hair that fluttered in the cool wind and I forced myself to look away.

"Local coffee shop then costume hunting," I commanded cheekily, my face uplifting from the big grin on my face.

Forget it, I would much rather stare and get caught than never be able to look at him. I rested my elbow on the divider and stared longingly at him with a small smile.

"Costume?" Takashi turned on the ignition and waited for Honey to hop in and the host club members to get into their respective limos. Honey pounded on my passenger door, and I unlocked it, the small boy clambering up onto my lap and buckling into the seatbelt. I resumed to my earlier position and watched as Takashi's jaw clenched every so often in concentration.

"Halloween is in a couple of days. It's the 29th today." Honey curled into my lap and found my iPod in my front pocket, plugging it into the aux. "Hey, Mitsu-Kitty. Play whatever you want," I whispered into Honey's ears.

"I didn't know it was so soon." Takashi started to drive down the road to the local coffee shop, an old Bts song playing. He glanced at me quickly and ruffled my messy bangs before allowing me to pull off the bandaging.

Honey and I belted out the lyrics to 'Just One Day' as we drove through the outer city of Tokyo. The signs around us were lit up and pedestrians threatened to spill from the pavement next to us.

Takashi pulled into a parking spot next to a small coffee shop on the corner. Honey clambered out the car after unbuckling quickly. I pulled out my iPod from the AUX cord and shoved the device into my pocket, before stepping out the car.

"Ooh! This is Takashi's favourite coffee shop!" Honey giggled, twirling around on the pavement in circles. I raised an eyebrow at the statement and stared at the giant next to me, looking up a bit to stare into his twinkling grey eyes.

"After yours of course," he ran a big hand through my hair and smiled a bit. Yaoi hands... I released a demonic chuckle at the thought.

"What was that?" Hikaru slid behind me while Kaoru flanked my side. Wherever these two found out tricks to vanish and reappear I don't know, but they need to teach me so I can do it better.

"I was trying to sound like Kyo-kun. Did it work?" I grinned at the twins while they nodded in reply. "Very close in fact. Kyouya-senpai better watch out."

"Does anyone have any idea what they're going to be for Halloween?" Tamaki belted out before bursting into the local coffee shop and causing a scene. I heaved a sigh as the other members pursued my elder brother into the cafe. The door was held open by my boyfriend and I smiled, stepping into the coffee shop.

"So, Takashi. What're you going to be for Halloween?" He pushed me in front of him as we stood in line. He stared at the menu before looking down at me. "Hwarang."

I laughed at the choice of costume, "a Korean flower-boy knight? Who're you protecting? Tamaki?" I laughed into my hand and keeled over at the thought. Tamaki crying dramatically while Takashi wearing heavy robes and having long flowing hair, while wielding a sword flashed through my mind.

"Pftt." I covered my mouth before I could laugh anymore, and in response Takashi sat his chin on the top of my head. "What're you drinking? Something hot or cold?" I thought for a bit and held the hand he had outstretched for me to hold.
