The host club had changed, their guests could sense it from the second they walked through the door.
Haruhi had been absent for only two days and the hosts were worried.
"I think we should go check on her Kyoya, something doesn't feel right about this." Tamaki said pulling the shadow king aside.
"If he's done something to her-"
"Tamaki, we can only tell her so many times before we push her away and into his arms." The boys were referring to Haruhi's boyfriend. The hosts met him only once but Kaoru and Honey instantly knew something was wrong. Mori-senpai had to attempt to remove his cousin from the situation,Haruhi wasn't happy about the reaction from the older boy.
Honey had looked into his dark eyes and apparently didn't like what he saw, he wasn't afraid to say so.
"I don't like him Haru-Chan, please don't stay with him, he's not good for you." He had said standing in front of the boy who claimed to love Haruhi.
"Honey-senpai, that's a really terrible thing to say!" She had said and apologized feeling embarrassed.
Kaoru glared at the boy, he didn't like the way he gripped Haruhi's arm, holding her close to him and away from her friends. He hated the fake smile that crossed his lips when they were introduced, the glare he fixed on her when he thought no one noticed. Kaoru wanted to reach out and hit him as hard as he could. Hikaru's jealousy was kicking in and on a normal day, he would try to calm his brother. Kaoru loved Haruhi and could see in her eyes a mixture of worry and uncertainty.
"Well it's nice meeting you all, come on Haruhi, we have things to do." He said pulling her along. She glanced back briefly but the hosts couldn't read her expression. Honey took a step forward but Haruhi called back telling them she was fine.
Kyoya had made some phone calls and asked about the boy named Akria Aisawa and didn't like what he heard.
"We can't let her -"
"We don't have a say, as much as we hate it, we can't change her mind."
"I can't let her be with someone like that either, if Honey-Senpai didn't like him-"
"We'll close a little early today and see if she's willing to talk, but you can't push her."
"I just don't understand, she's such a smart girl."
"Love is blind as they say."
half an hour later,the group stood in front of Haruhi's door.
"Remember everyone, don't push her, we want her to know she can come to us and not feel like we're interrogating her." Kyoya said while they waited for her to open the door.
when she did, the hosts were stunned, tears fell from her eyes as she greeted them.
She rushed forward into Tamaki's arms and broke into sobs. The hosts moved her inside. They knew now that they could no longer stand by, they would get to the bottom of it and if the need arose, Honey-Senpai was more than willing to pay Akira a visit,
