Hi!!! This is my second story here!!! Please be nice and give me some review.. Okie dokie? Please review!!!
Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran high school club. I'm just a fan.
Was it my Imagination?
"Thank God classes are over," thought Haruhi as the final bell rang; signaling that classes are over. "I'm so tired", as she trudged her wall to the third Music Room of the elite and not to mention expensive Ouran high school. She wasn't feeling well even before she came to school.
"Should I stay home today?" muttered Haruhi to herself as she climbed the long stairway. "Nah, Kyouya-senpai would have added another additional designation so I have an even more hard time paying my debt." The Shadow King is a giant and he was squashing her using his foot and laughs evilly. Haruhi shuddered at that ominous thought running in her mind.
But by the time she reached the third Music room, Haruhi was really pale and cold. She opened the door quietly so that the guys from the Host Club would scarcely notice her but unfortunately for her, Tamaki-senpai quickly spotted her and welcomed her with his usual father-daughter antics, the twins, not to be left behind, embraced her with their usual brotherly affectation for each other.
Honey-senpai followed by Mori-senpai and chatters on and on about the new strawberry cake. The only one left is Kyouya-senpai who only said, "Haruhi-kun, please change your clothes quickly, your designations will be arriving soon." By now, Haruhi was feeling a bit dizzy but stubborn girl that she is, she quickly changed her clothes, went outside just in time to see a guy running toward her with fist raised, yelling "I'll kill you Haruhi for you stole my precious Kimi away from me!" while punching her in the stomach and face….
Haruhi tries to protect herself by raising her hands to shield her face while one strong punch sent her down the floor amidst all the shouts and screams of the clients and the other Host Club members. She tries to sit up, but thanks to her dizziness and blows, she only manages to prop herself on her elbows.
Tamaki-senpai quickly reaches her side with the twins and when Haruhi tries to look up, she saw just in time to see the guy who attacked her fly through the door, courtesy of Honey-senpai and Mori-senpai. Honey-senpai then runs to Haruhi's side and asks worriedly, "Are you okay, Haru-chan? Where does it hurt?"
Haruhi tries to smile in spite of the pain and says "I'm okay, Honey-senpai, see?" With those she attempted to stand on her own, only to be carried by Mori-senpai. "M-Mori-senpai! I can walk!!" stutters Haruhi as she squirms in Mori-senpai's arms. "Hn." muttered Mori-senpai. "My poor baby! To endure those hits! I'm sorry otou-san wasn't able to reach you in time!" pronounced by Tamaki-senpai. "Are you okay Haruhi?" asks the twins in unison. Haruhi tries to smile for their benefit. "Haruhi, why don't you go with Mori-senpai to the nurse's office to get treated?" Kyouya-senpai says quietly; "You can rest for a while and return at the club tomorrow."
Haruhi stared at the Shadow King for a moment. Did he worry even just a little bit? Then Kyouya-senpai shattered the illusion by saying, "Don't worry, Haruhi-kun, I'll add this to your debt for all the missed designations today plus the medical treatment." Kyouya-senpai smirks evilly. Haruhi's shoulders slumped when suddenly Mori-senpai spoke, "I'll pay her medical bill myself and I'll handle her missed designations for tomorrow." And everyone including Haruhi's head whipped up to stare at Mori-senpai in shock.
Suddenly, Haruhi whimpered, holding her chest. Everyone looked at her, and she said "My chest hurts, I can't br-breathe." Everyone panicked, while Kyouya-senpai told Mori-senpai to go to his family hospital, instructing the twins to tell Haruhi's teachers that she will be absent due to an emergency; told Honey-senpai to post a sign at the third music room that the club will be closed for today and Tamaki-kun to get ready.
Half an hour later:
A serious looking doctor was checking Haruhi over while the rest of the club members were told to wait at the waiting area. Suddenly, Ranka arrived at the scene and was shouting' "Where's my precious Haruhi? Where is she?" Kyouya-senpai stood up and walked over to an obviously distressed Ranka and says quietly, "She is with the doctor right now, Ranka-san. He is checking her to see if she has any problems." "What problems?? She was well this morning when I saw her. Did something happen in school that she didn't tell me?" Ranka's eyes turned to narrow slits and a very black aura began to emit from him. Everyone, except from Kyouya-senpai and Mori-senpai were scared.
Kyoua-senpai was about to speak again when the door opened and the doctor went outside to ask, "Is there any family members present?" "That will be me, I'm her father." said Ranka. The doctor's eyes widened for a second and were all business-like again, "I want to ask you a couple of questions before I continue." Ranka frowns slightly and says "Where can we talk in private?" shooting a glance at the host club members. "We can go inside my office." said the doctor quietly.
Much later…
Ranka and the doctor went to the office and the doctor closed the door firmly. "Let me introduce myself, I am Dr. Shino Ichisawa. I am a cardiologist and my specialty is heart diseases. I would like to ask you a few questions regarding your daughter." "Please continue," said Ranka quietly. "Well, for starters, I'm going to ask about your wife's health. Where is she by the way?"
Ranka said quietly, "Well, she passed quite some time ago due to coronary heart disease. Her body wasn't able to stand the stress of carrying Haruhi around and a few months after giving birth to Haruhi, well, her body gave up." "I see." commented the doctor. "Well, according to my observations of her and from what you have told me, I suspect that Haruhi has inherited her mother's sickness."
"What?!" Ranka couldn't believe what he heard. "Doctor Ichisawa, are you sure? She is still so young!" "Age doesn't matter when it comes to these diseases. But I have to tell you something very important. Haruhi's mother was the main source of life when she was still carrying Haruhi so that means majority of the blood and disease came from Haruhi's mother. She might have passed the disease to Haruhi and since it was left untreated and undetected for quite some time so she might be immune to the medicine we are giving her. And also…" Doctor Ichisawa trailed off.
"And what, Doctor Ichisawa, tell me!" cries Ranka, his eyes suddenly came to a conclusion. "No, don't tell me that! Don't you dare tell me that!" yells Ranka. The host club members were startled at noise coming from the doctor's office. "What is that all about?" wondered each host club members. "How much longer?" asks Ranka dejectedly. "We estimate around 1-2 more years if she continues to live like this but with some treatment maybe a few more years." commented the doctor quietly.
Honey-senpai tugs Mori-senpai's shirt, "Ne, Taka-chan, I'm scared. What will happen to Haru-chan?" "Hn." "Don't worry, Honey-senpai the doctor will help Haruhi-kun get better so don't worry okay?" says Tamaki-senpai. Honey-senpai, in an unusually somber mood, says "I want to see Haru-chan. I want to share Usa-chan so she'll feel better." The office doors opened and the host club members hurriedly ran to a red eyed Ranka and a quiet doctor.
"Doctor Ichisawa," says Kyouya-senpai, "How is Haruhi? Is she okay? What is wrong with her?" Doctor Ichisawa looks at Ranka and Ranka nods his head imperceptibly back. "Well, gentlemen, she has some problem breathing and she is really stressed as far as we can tell but with some medicine, healthy food and adequate rest, she'll be fine." The members sighed in relief. Kyouya-senpai wasn't satisfied with the doctor's reply. "Are you sure that is all there is, Doctor Ichisawa?" "Yes."
"When can we see her?" asks Tamaki-senpai. "You can see her now. But you have to be very quiet and don't disturb her too much. She needs to rest." Doctor Ichisawa continued quietly. "Please follow me." So the little group went inside Haruhi's private room and was stunned to see their very animated and lively Haruhi still and quiet with IV needle stuck in her arm.
Honey-senpai's eyes filled with tears and he put Usa-chan next to Haruhi so that when she wakes up, she'll know that Honey-senpai was there. Tamaki and the twins were unusually quiet and the unflappable Mori-senpai ruffled Haruhi's bangs in a rare sign of affection for other that Honey-senpai. Kyouya-senpai stood at the corner, frowning a little in concentration. Haruhi's eyes fluttered a bit and suddenly sprang open. "Wh-what, where am I?" "You're in one of my family's hospitals, Haruhi." said Kyouya-senpai. "E-e-eh!" Haruhi's eyes widened at the information. "Haru-chan!" and Honey-senpai launched himself at Haruhi and hugs her.
"Honey-senpai, it's okay. You see, I'm feeling better already." smiles Haruhi gently. "Otou-san, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be working?" "Haru-chan, of course I'm here!
