Our love song

Chapter 17

Chapter 17

Recap: No longer angry, Hikaru looks at his brother and Izumi and then at Kazuna and says, "Oh shit."

After Hikaru not saying anything else, the girls walk away to go get changed for dinner.  After the girls leave Kaoru smacks Hikaru and says, "what happened?! That was your chance!"  Hikaru looks at Kaoru and says, "I just realized I liked her, what was I supposed to do?!" Kaoru shakes his head, "You knew you had feelings, you just had to admit it." Kaoru sighs at Hikaru's silence and says, "Come on, let's go get ready for dinner." Hikaru just nodded and they walked to their room. 

After the girls are done getting ready, Izumi heads to the kitchen to see if she can help with anything.  Kazuna, knowing she's trash at cooking, helps set the table instead. As everyone came down for dinner they noticed the tension between Tamaki and Haruhi and the uncomfortable air between Hikaru and Kazuna.  When dinner was served, everyone just watched as Haruhi piled a ton of crab onto her plate and just kept eating.  No one wanted to be the one to break the silence so they just watched and ate their own food slowly.  Izumi made herself and Kazuna something different since they both hated seafood.  They still ate slowly, not wanting to be the ones to break the tension.  Haruhi just eats, making a pun every once in a while, which was starting to irritate Tamaki. After a few minutes he finally snaps. "Maybe you should slow down." He says.  Haruhi just cracks another crab leg in response. "I thought you weren't talking to me." Tamaki jumps up from his seat, "I'm not. Kyoya, show me to my room please. I'm done eating."  Kyoya sighs, "excuse me everyone" and gets up to show Tamaki his room.  Kazuna follows to try and get Tamaki to understand why they all did what they did.

After Tamaki and Kyoya leave, the other hosts tell Haruhi about how worried they were for her.  Still ignoring that Izumi was thrown off with her. Izumi, not even looking up from her food, mumbles "It's all good guys. I totally wasn't there with her. Thanks for the love." Kaoru hears her, seeing as they were sitting next to each other, and grabs her hand. She gives him a sweet look and squeezes his hand in response. Haruhi finally stops eating and gets up.  "Oh it finally got through to you huh?" Hikaru says.  In response she just runs out to find a bathroom. 

*With Tamaki and Kazuna*

As they were in Tamaki's room Kazuna says, "You know we only did it to protect ourselves and the guests from getting hurt.  You guys were too far away and there was nothing else we could do." Tamaki nods, finally starting to understand.  "You should talk to Haruhi. She's dense and needs to know that you understand." Kazuna says.  "I will. I just need to get something for this sunburn from Kyoya." Tamaki says. "Wanna walk back with  me?"  Kazuna nods and they start walking to Kyoya's room.

*Back with Haruhi*

Haruhi runs to the closest bathroom she could find, which just happened to be Kyoya's. Haruhi looks around the room to see who's room it was. She sees someone in the room and asks, "Who are you?" The man then replies "don't be silly. It's just me." Haruhi seeing the man put on his glasses. "Kyoya-senpai?" Haruhi bows in apology saying  "Senpai, I really didn't mean to make everybody worry about me today." Kyoya sits up taking a drink of his water and sighs before replying with "thanks but I wasn't especially worried although," he stands up while finishing his sentence "although I did have a hard time separating Kaoru and Hikaru from those two punks. They almost beat them half to death." As he starts to walk over to the wall closest towards her he continues saying "and because of you, I had to send each of the girls a bouquet of flowers to apologize. They've been looking forward to this trip and we don't want to disappoint them." As he reaches the light switch Haruhi says in response " I'll pay you back for the flowers senpai."  Before he turns off the lights he says "Each bouquet cost me 50,000 yen . That's a grand total of 600,000 yen, Haruhi" In the now darkened room Kyoya turns and closes the gap between them. From one second to the next Haruhi went from standing upright to being pressed into cloud white sheets, Kyoya looming over her. A smirk settles in the corner of Kyoya's mouth before he suggests, "If you want to, you can pay me back with your body" Haruhi feels the weight of Kyoya's legs on either side of her as they sink into the bed. Unsure of what to do she stares up at him questioningly. He leans closer, " Surely, you aren't so naive that you actually believe a person's sex doesn't matter." He looks her in the eyes saying "you've left yourself completely defenseless against me."  Haruhi looks up at Kyoya, processing what he was saying.  She slowly realizes what he's doing and says, "You won't do it Kyoya-senpai.  I know because it wouldn't do any good.  You wouldn't gain anything from it."  Kyoya starts to laugh as he slowly sits up and gets off of her.  "You're right. You're a fascinating woman Haruhi."  Haruhi sits up and says, "You're right, but I've learned something from this though."
