Yuuki glanced at her silver wristwatch, and noticed that ten minutes had already passed since she and Kyouya had met. She sipped at her tea as Kyouya finished his explanation of himself. "Now that you know so much about me, could you tell me about you?" He asked her.
She blushed a bit and slowly nodded. "Well to start, would you be interested in my past?" He nodded. "I was born in France. My whole family lived on a single family estate near Paris. I lived happily with my parents and siblings, and the rest of my family tree were always just a few steps away. Every holiday, we'd all meet up at our family ballroom in the main building.
"But unfortunately, those happy days had to end. When I was 6 years old, our estate was robbed by criminals and burned down to the ground. My aunt and I were the only ones who survived..." Yuuki explained as a tear rolled down her cheek. As more tears fell, she told Kyouya more.
After she finished, Kyouya leaned closer and gently wiped her tears with his thumb. She looked over and slightly smiled. Kyouya held her hand, feeling pitiful for Yuuki and wondering why such a beautiful girl would ever have to go through such pain as being orphaned.
Unknowingly to Kyouya and Yuuki, the rest of the host club had been watching them converse for the past five minutes. Yuuki, the kind to notice little things, felt that someone was behind her. She turned around and saw the boys crouching behind the couch.
"Yuu-chan! That's so horrible and sad!" Honey cried out with tear-filled eyes. He ran around the couch and hugged Yuuki tightly. She just sat there, not giving any sort of reaction as she was warmly embraced.
Another tear fell from her cheek and fell in Honey's hair. After a full minute of pure silence, two small and quiet words escaped Yuuki's lips. "Thank you..." Mori was the only one to hear her small comment.
As if in a reply, he placed his hand on her shoulder. She looked up at him, recieving somewhat of a smile. She smiled back at him, making the tall handsome boy blush for what seemed like the very first time.
Was this the start of love? It could have been, but who would know. Definately not someone who had never been in love before. Perhaps this whole event was just the start of Yuuki's friendship with the host club.
