As luck would have it, Sumire's napkin flew off the table and onto the floor. Bending down, Sumire's sleeve rode up a bit and thats when Honey saw it.

It looked like a faint line encircling Sumire's wrist, much like a fading scar. Before he could take a closer look Sumire had already picked up the napkin and resumed the conversation.

He tried to look unbothered, but couldn't shake the feeling off. Looking at his cousin, the two shared a look that they both had seen the same thing but had an unspoken agreement to not say anything.

The setting sun casted pretty hues of orange and pinks across the horizon. Dying rays flowed through the windows, making the room glow in a warm nostalgic orange. 

Soon, it was time to go. Sumire, standing in front of one of the huge windows aligning the walls to see her faint reflection,  tried to feel the flower pins in her hair, taking it out to return it to the twins. 

The twins, seeing this shared a look and was about to tell Sumire to not bother and she can keep it but saw Kyoya approaching and decided to see what would happen instead, pulling out their phones and turning on the camera.

"May I?"

Sumire looked to see Kyoya offering a hand to her dilemma. Nodding silently, Sumire turned around to let Kyoya help.

She felt his hands brush up against her neck, detaching the hair accessories, there must have been more than she thought because his hands traveled across the length of her hair. 

In the reflection Sumire watched Kyoya's face. It was focused but calm, for some reason it was a comforting sight. 

The sunset hues putting a soft glow onto their skins as Kyoya removed the last flower from her hair and they locked eyes in the window reflection. 

Quickly looking away Sumire stuttered out, "Beautiful"

"Pardon?"

"The sunset is very beautiful today", Sumire honestly thought she was being smooth.

Moving closer to Sumire, Kyoya said just above her ear, "Indeed"

They both look to the sunset, admiring the sight. Subtext lingered in the air as Sumire tried her best not to die from the moment.

Hikaru and Kaoru were trying their best to get a good angle for the pictures without getting caught and Honey and Takashi just looked on, observing.

"Ne Tamaki-senpai, I've never seen Kyoya-senpai act like that to someone before", Haruhi said, kind of impressed.

"Yeah, me neither", Tamaki replied, a small smile on his face as he watched his best friend.

The twins compared their shots, looking at each others gallery, they both paused at one of the pictures. It was a pretty shot, it captured both Sumire and Kyoya's face, and the lighting was almost perfect. They grinned at each other, sensing a ship album was about to be made.

Sumire took the hair pins from Kyoya and scuttled away. 

"Hikaru, Kaoru, thanks for letting me borrow", Sumire thanked handing the hair pins to the twins.

"You can keep it", the twins grinned at her maliciously.
