It had become Kyoya's past time to look at Haruhi when no one was looking, and when he stared at he made sure that no one was looking. The last thing he needed to worry about was anyone knowing that he had feelings for another "male host". They already had Hikaru and Kaoru doing that quite a bit too well. People paid too much attention to Kyoya as it was. It was hard enough to get work done while he had women fawning over him. He didn't need to add anything to the mix by being gay.

None of it mattered though because it didn't change that Kyoya was in love with Haruhi, which was no surprise as everyone was in love with Haruhi in the host club.

Kyoya was pretending to do work and watch Haruhi all at once. It was easy. No one got a look at his screen and no one could see where his eyes were behind his glasses. It wasn't like he typed gibberish on his computer all his day. He was love sick, but he was not a fool and only a fool would sit at a computer all day and write nonsense. No, he did work. It just didn't always make a whole lot of sense to anyone other than himself when he came home and read it over. Sometimes it was unreadable but for the most part he got his point across and was able to work from it.

When he had to be charm women he did that with ease as well. He found that he could charm women, do his work, and watch the only girl that mattered all at once as well. It was easy since none of the actions required much attention. Kyoya was good at multitasking.

However Kyoya had been in love with Haruhi for over a year now. And now that Tamaki was over his crush, it was harder to tell himself that he couldn't just tell her how he felt about her. Kyoya would be graduating soon to top it all off and eventually Haruhi would find someone, fall in love, and get married. And he would never have her not because she wasn't interested, honestly he could never figure out who Haruhi might be interested in because she hid it well. That is if she was in love with anyone in the first place.

All of that got to be taxing. After awhile Kyoya's head would start to hurt. There was no reason why he couldn't tell her how he felt. The only reason he could come up with was that he was worried that she didn't feel the same and that he was scared. And really neither was a good enough excuse for him, because Kyoya didn't get scared, and if Haruhi didn't feel the same about him as he did her, he was sure he could change her mind given enough time.

Time was something he didn't have much of anymore.

For the first time in his life Kyoya was acting foolish and if there was one thing Kyoya couldn't tolerate, it was foolishness.

None of this made him get off his fat ass and open his big mouth and tell Haruhi how he felt.

All of this was starting to make him an unpleasant person to be around which meant that Tamaki wore protective clothing just to go near him because he wasn't sure what object he was going to get hit with next.

All of this kept up for awhile and Haruhi was pleasantly ignorant of it all because Haruhi was ignorant to a lot of things. If any of the others noticed they valued there life to much to say anything.

Eventually it all came down on Kyoya because one day while he was pretending to work, pretending to charm the girls, all the while watching Haruhi, someone was observant of all his pretending.

And someone noticed.

"You should just tell her how you feel about her," The girl on his right said.

He had no idea what her name was.

He pondered if he should ask like he had no idea what she was talking about, but there were ways that could backfire on him. "Who am I in love with?" he challenged all the while continuing to type, while watching the woman he loved, and paying attention to a customer.

There was no one else around him besides to mysterious girl. She had been the only one to risk one of Kyoya's poorly hidden bad moods.

"Why the fairest maiden of them all." She cast her glance at "The Fairest Madien", who should be playing the part of Prince Charming.

She saw through Haruhi's act as a guy which wasn't a shock because some girls noticed Haruhi was a girl but no one ever said anything because they all thought it was a part of the game and no one wanted to ruin the game.

"I think that you confuse my feelings." Kyoya was not hopeful this was true. Kyoya was just stating a fact. This girl could be confused.

"Do you know your feelings?" she asked

"How is it that I am talking of my feelings with a girl of which the name I do not remember?" It was rude and amazing that he would admit he didn't remember "the girls" name but he didn't and at this point he wanted to conversation over with.

"How is it that the perfect Kyoya can't remember my name when he usually pays attention to such things and is charming at all times and knows everything about everyone? Unless of course his attention is otherwise occupied." She said coyly

If he weren't ready to kill her he would ask her to join the host club, someone who noticed that much should babysit Tamaki.

"How is it that someone who I don't know cares about where my feelings might lye when it is my job to make sure that the fair maiden in front of me holds all of my attention?" Kyoya said.

There was a crash from the far side of the room that both of them ignored because they were both engaged in an argument that was important as far as Kyoya was concerned.

"Just admit you're feelings. You'll feel better." She coaxed.

"I will give you back your money plus double if you go away and I never see you again"

She snorted. "Please, I'm worth a hell of a lot more than that."

Despite himself Kyoya couldn't help but grin. Granted it was an evil grin but it was grin none the less. Forget killing her. He wanted to keep an eye on this one.

"What is your name?"

"Aya"

"Would you like a job Aya?" he offered.

"Are you going to tell Haruhi how you feel?" She asked softly.

"None of your business."

A challenge had been placed, and she was more then read to accept.

"How much do I get paid?"

TBC…

A/N: This was an idea that hit me in the head when I was reading. I couldn't help myself. This should be a really short one. I only plan to put one or two more chapters up after this one. When I'll get around to writing them I'm not really sure. However I do plan to finish this because I love Kimi and I love the story. R/R. Hope you like.
