Hello! I know my story hasn't been up that long, but it feels like I haven't updated in forever! I've probably already mentioned this, but this story should probably only have two or three chapters. So this will probably be the last one. Unless I get a damn good cliffhanger! Or if I feel it needs another chapter :)
Chapter 2: Stalker!
Haruhi just stared at the twins for a little while and blinked in confusion.
"Nothing to say?" they asked in unison. To Haruhi's amusement, they looked bored.
Renge goes missing, they show up out of no where, and they look bored.
"What are you two doing here?! Where's Renge?"
"Calm down." said Hikaru.
"Yeah, don't worry so much." said Kaoru.
The two of them continued together. "Renge's fine. We think..."
"You think? Wait, go back to why are you two here?"
"Aww, come on, give us a little more credit than that." said Kaoru.
"Yeah, you didn't really think Nekozawa could keep us busy forever, did you?"
"He may be willing to do anything for Renge, but he can't keep the host club preoccupied forever!"
"We figured that Renge would take you into town to hide you," continued Hikaru "so we split into pairs to cover more land."
"You say it like I was kidnapped." muttered Haruhi.
"The way the Boss acted, it was like you were kidnapped." said Kaoru.
"So where's Renge?"
"We don't know. We were paying attention to you when we found the two of you. Didn't see her." It didn't sound like they cared too much either.
"How long exactly have you been following us?" They were walking along the streets now, but Haruhi got the feeling that she was the only one on the lookout for Renge.
They shrugged not long. "Not long."
Haruhi sighed. "Well, if you don't mind, I was kind of busy before you found us."
"So were we!"
"Haruhi, you may be the honor student, but not everyone in the host club is a complete dummy." said Kaoru. They were obviously talking about Tamaki.
"Yeah, we planned on getting Renge and Kyoya together too." said Hikaru. "Somehow."
I guess that means I'm stuck with them... thought Haruhi. "I'm assuming that the other groups are Honey and Mori-senpai and Kyoya and Tamaki-senpai?"
"Yup." They grabbed her by the shoulders again and dragged her behind a couple. They were peering over their shoulders, but the couple didn't seem to notice. "There they are!" hissed Hikaru.
Haruhi saw that Renge had caught up with Tamaki and Kyoya. When she looked around she noticed that Honey and Mori were also following the trio. Renge looked a bit annoyed with Tamaki, but he didn't seem to notice.
Of course, as soon as Kyoya was looking the other way and Renge followed his gaze, Mori went into action. Do you remember the scene in the episode where Kaoru sets Hikaru and Haruhi up on a date? The one where Honey-senpai tries to be an ice cream man and Mori runs in and takes him out of the picture? Well that's what he did with Tamaki.
Tamaki was so surprised that he didn't even resist. Not that he had much time to.
Mori was soon holding him still in the safety of their hiding spot and Honey was making the shhing motion until Tamaki finally caught on.
Haruhi and the twins rushed over to join them. "Success!" they shouted. Mori and Honey looked happy, but Tamaki, who still thought this was a rescue mission, said "Haruhi! You've been found! Don't worry! Daddy won't ever let you be kidnapped again! I promise! You're safe now!."
"I was safe before. Why can't any of you get it through your heads that I wasn't kidnapped?"
But Tamaki was still rambling on so he didn't hear her.
"You'll never be let out of the host club's sight again! As much as I hate to say this, the twins may have to be with you at all times to protect you!."
"Senpai."
"Yes?!"
"Shut up! I don't need protecting." said Haruhi as Tamaki immediately went to his emo corner.
"Good job Haruhi." said Hikaru.
"Now we don't have to worry about him getting in the way when we get Kyoya-senpai and Renge together." said Kaoru.
"Um, guys?" said Honey-senpai.
"What?" asked the twins in unison.
"Where are they?"
Everyone whirled around. Where Kyoya and Renge had been walking earlier, stood a few other people.
"They aren't there!" said Hikaru.
"Well the two of you didn't expect them to just stand there until you were watching again did you?" pointed out Haruhi.
"I thought Honey and Mori-senpai were watching them!" said Kaoru.
"Oops..." said Honey.
"Mitsukuni and I thought the two of you were watching them." spoke up Mori.
"Yeah, he's right." said Honey. "We agreed that the watching would be your job after we got Tama-chan."
"Yeah, well couldn't you tell we weren't paying attention!?"
Oh, forget this. Haruhi started walking towards home as the four of them argued and Tamaki sat and moped.
Sorry Renge. I'd love to help, but if the rest of the host club is involved, you're on your own with the problems you have with your love life.
As she retraced her steps she caught herself looking at all the places Renge had pointed out to her. That nice peaceful afternoon seemed like days ago.
Haruhi started as she looked at the bench in the park where she and Renge had been sitting earlier. There sat the MIA couple!
Renge and Kyoya looked perfectly happy together and Haruhi didn't have the heart to disturb them by saying goodbye to her.
Renge sure had come a long way. She wasn't the same girl who had been obsessed with the "cool" host. She still loved him. But at least now she loved him for who he was.
Renge's stereotyping days were over, and Haruhi was glad to see that she'd learned from them.
That's what she was thinking when she entered her silent house. Her dad wouldn't be home for a few more hours. It would be nice to be able to just sit around and think for a while.
Renge had been right. It sure hadn't gone like she thought it would, but it had been nice to spend the afternoon with another girl for a change.
The End
Yes, that's the end. I decided that it didn't need another chapter. I'll probably write another Ouran story. Eventually. Thanks to Kaito Lune, ILuvHikaruAndKaoru, Livi-kunxXxChibi-Chan, and Scherherazade. I really hope I got your names right. And thanks to anyone who will read this story! Review Please!
