The Breaking Point
Rea
I raced down the alley unable to think a coherent thought. Kyoya's birthday is in a week and I don't have a present yet. But that's not the worst part of it. Last night while talking on the phone with Kyoya he calmly asks me to be his date to the party being thrown at his house! He acted like it wasn't a big deal. Of course, it's a big deal! I mean it's a party at his house! We may have been dating for more than four months but I still haven't meet his family. Every time I tried to weasel my way into a meeting he would cut me off short. After a while I gave up. So when he announced I would be meeting his family I naturally freaked out! What the hell am I going to do? I don't have anything to wear. I can't begin to imagine his house or family. I don't even have a damn present. I flew up a set of stairs and throw open a door.
"Haruhi, I have a major problem," I yelled through the small apartment. I rushed through her small kitchen. I found Haruhi setting on the floor books scattered around. She looked at me surprised.
"What's the problem Rea," she calmly asked. I dashed up to her dropped to the floor and grabbed her shoulder.
"Kyoya is having a party and I'm his date," as I freaked out I shook Haruhi. "What am I going to do? I don't have a dress or a present!" I slumped to the floor whining. Haruhi patted me on the back.
"There there. It'll be ok."
"How do you know that?"
"Umm well…" I looked up at her. She was looking over me toward the kitchen. I turned around and moaned. The host club members, minus Kyoya and Tamaki stood in the door way grinning. I feel as if something bad is about to happen.
Kyoya:
"Tamaki, will you knock it off and study!" I sat in the middle of my room trying to study. Tamaki wouldn't sit still. He moved about my room excited. I was beginning to get fed up. I stood, walked over to him, grabbed his arm and tossed him on to my sofa.
"Oof," he grunted. He looked up at me alarmed. I glared at him. I bent and grabbed his notebook.
"Study," I ordered tossing it to him.
"I can't," Tamaki said, standing. He knocked the notebook to the floor. I sighed in exasperation. He shifted over to me. Raping his arm around my shoulder, he pulled me closer. "Think about it Kyoya, Rea in a ball gown." That got my interest. "Picture it, her twirling around just for you. All dolled up for you. All for you." I was grinning. Tamaki chuckled, my grin collapsed. "Aren't you excited?" I turned my head slightly and glared at him
"Yes I am but that doesn't mean I won't study," I said thrusting his arm off me. Of course, I was excited, how could I not be. Just the thought of Rea dressed up made my blood boil but there was a drawback. Rea will have to meet my family. It's not like I'm putting her down but my father will not approve of her. I'm afraid he'll say something to hurt her or try to force me to break it off with her. And I cannot do that. I think I have fallen hard for her.
