"There's so much more about you that you never let me see
You turned away, but not to me."~Goo Goo Dolls, "Become"
Let Me Remind You
Haruhi saw through things, that was part of the problem. She saw through facades too easily; she broke barriers that were never meant to be broken. She didn't even do it on purpose—as far as Kyouya could tell, anyways, it was an accident every time.
She shattered barriers that he had thought were strong, and in a way, it frightened him.
Of course, it only made her more beautiful.
"Let me remind you," she said, turning his face back towards hers, her small hand soft against his cheek.
"Remind me what?" he muttered, keeping an ear out for Tamaki or the Hitachin brothers. They were in the dressing room with one thin door separating them from the Third Music Room and its other inhabitants, for heaven's sakes. They really didn't need to have this… conversation—he ignored the voice in his head that whispered that this could be more—right here, right now, did they?
Apparently, they did, because Haruhi wasn't moving, and he didn't really want her to.
"Remind you that you are actually kind and gentle sometimes," she said. "Remind you that you aren't really what you appear to be, Kyouya-sempai."
He raised an eyebrow. "And what is that?"
She laughed softly. "Why, the low blood pressure demon lord, of course."
"There are certain people who would respectfully disagree." For instance, Tamaki, who had been on the receiving end of several mornings worth of bad temper, thanks to his airheaded nature.
She rolled her eyes. "Of course, I forget. The Shadow King doesn't relinquish his title easily, does he?" Her hand slipped from his cheek to his shoulder, small fingers tightening on the fabric of his school uniform.
Yes, Haruhi definitely needed to respect the personal bubble, Kyouya thought hazily, as all (rational) thought was banished from his mind by the touch of Haruhi's lips against his.
"Let me remind you, the light doesn't blind you at all
It just helps you see
Oh cant you see?"
A/N—This is my first OHSHC fanfiction, so feel free to criticize and tell me if there's anything missing. Are the characters IC? Et cetera.
I don't own this anime, the characters, or the song quotes at the beginning and end. The song is "Become" by the Goo Goo Dolls—I believe the anime is Bisco Hatori's? Anyway, it's not mine. XD.
Please read and review!!
