When Left Alone (Ouran Highschool Host Club Fanfiction)

๑ Chapter 16 - Promise of Death ๑

Yukina POV

'No, it can't be. Why would it be?' After a day of that incident my thoughts were still interrupted and I kept spacing out.

and a name kept ringing in my head 'Kuro Tsubasa.'

I can't quite put my finger on it. . Have I met him before or at least somewhere?

But I have to clear my mind or it'll just get in the way. . I just have to. . Stay more alert than usual, that's all.

At The Club

I was just doing my daily job until someone asked.

"Yukina, what's that red mark on your arm?" Kyoya-senpai was the one who asked.

'Eh? Red mark?' I came to check my arm when I saw it.

There was a red mark-like on my skin, maybe that guy grasped on me too hard and I never even noticed.

'But I can't make them worry a single bit.' I thought.

And finally I answered with "I just get a little clumsy sometimes, I'm sorry to have worried you." I bowed.

Kyoya POV

"I just get a little clumsy sometimes, I'm sorry to have worried you." She answered.

"Really? Well, I understand." I replied with.

Then thought 'A mark like that just couldn't be from clumsiness, there's something she's not telling us.' I then pushed my glasses to the bridge of my nose.

'It looks really severed.' I thought while looking at the mark on her hand.

Yukina POV

'It looks like Kyoya-senpai bought my story.' I feel guilty for lying.

"Well then . . Um I'll get back to work." I said

"Yukina. ." I know that voice.

"Yes? Naoki?" I asked what he wanted to say.

"Did something happen?" He asked.

"No." I replied with

"You can tell me everything you know, it's okay." He said

"Like I said, nothing's wrong." I stated

'I hate lying to people.' I thought

"Did someone do this to you?" He grabbed my arm.

"No, I just got clumsy." I said.

"Yukina, why do you lie?" Naoki asked.

"I'm not lying at all." I gulped at that.

"So it doesn't hurt?" He asked.

"No, I'm fine, now please. . I have duties I have to attend to." I told him.

I left him but when I looked back at him he. .

Looked very worried.

'I'm sorry, Naoki.. .'

After the school has ended, going anywhere outside of shelter for me became as tough as usual. Every sound I heard I became alert of. Even the sound of a leaf falling of a tree has startled me. I really just can't let my guard down for even a second.

I headed to the graveyard and froze as soon as I saw what I thought would never happen.
