Mothers 2

In school

"Kyoya! Wait up!" Tamaki's voice called out. Kyoya paused not looking up from his book. "I've had another idea!" this statement did not please Kyoya but he didn't move.

"What is it, Tamaki?" he asked calmly while his friend caught his breath.

"We should all take a holiday!" Tamaki exclaimed whilst pulling one of his ridiculous poses. "Hosting is quite exhausting, coming up with themes, lines and stories; in addition it would be perfect for family bonding."

Much to Tamaki's surprise Kyoya turned to him, smiled and commented "Good idea." Before turning and walking to their class. Tamaki was flying for nearly the whole day as he dreamt of how Mommy was becoming the perfect mother already; Kyoya appreciated his quietness.

In the club

"So we are going first thing tomorrow." Kyoya briefed the hosts minus Haruhi.

"And you two understand your mission?" Tamaki asked sternly, glaring at the twins.

"Yes sir!" They shouted simultaneously pulling a salute just before Haruhi entered.

"Oh god, what's going on?" She said exasperated noticing the twins' positions.

"Nothing but we will be freed from the stresses of hosting tomorrow!" Tamaki was already too over the top and the girls hadn't even arrived. While Haruhi set up her seats she looked over at Kyoya but was sadly not surprised. She didn't think he would have changed.

The next day

Calmly Haruhi walked towards the gate, thinking to herself.

So what do you think mom, exactly a decade since you went to heaven? Anything happening up there? Today was pretty much completely average for me, I won't even be dragged along with the host cl…

She was ripped from her thoughts by the twins coming from nowhere talking both her arms.

"Waah!"

"Target…"

"Captured!"

"Wait, what the…?" Haruhi was cut off by the limo pulling up.

"Good work, now take her with you." Tamaki commented smoothly.

"Roger!" the twins exclaimed while Tamaki drove away.

"Hold on, where are we going?!" Haruhi yelled as she was thrown into the back of another limo quickly followed by the twins jumping in after her.

Before Haruhi could make another objection a television screen flicked on showing the inside of two other limos. In one held Takashi with Hunny clinging to his bunny Usa-chan and the other Tamaki sitting next to Kyoya.

"I know yesterday we said we would be freed from hosting so I thought we would all go on a vacation and tighten our family…" Haruhi zoned out, thinking to herself once again, only vaguely aware of Tamaki's rant on the other side of the television.

At the water park

After Kyoya explained where they were she glanced around before falling silent.

Is this what heaven is like, mom?

"Are you alright, Haruhi?" Kyoya's voice cut through her thoughts.

"Yes, of course, why shouldn't I be?" Haruhi answered a little scattered. Before Kyoya could answer they were distracted by Hunny asking her to join him.

Throughout the rest of the day Kyoya was carefully observing making his notes on the feedback of the water park, however, because he was watching he couldn't help but notice Haruhi was upset and when alone, as rare as it was, she would zone out. Only when she was focused on finding Hunny did she seem to come back, although, still without her usual cheer, except the moment when she spoke to Mori.

Outside the water park

"Come on, Haruhi." Haruhi was surprised to see it was Kyoya who was speaking.

"I thought I was travelling with the twins?" She questioned.

"Since you weren't listening during the journey here you wouldn't hear the argument between Tamaki and the Twins of who might be a danger to you. As Tamaki is a 'pervert' and the twins are 'devils' according to each other and Mori and Hunny will not be driving as far as your home I will be taking you." Kyoya explained walking towards one of the limos.

"Oh" to be honest Haruhi was surprised but felt she would be more likely to have some peace with Kyoya. "Hang on, what about the televisions then?"

"Those are part of the Ootori group ownership and we were only using them on the way here to drop them off, later they will be used to pick up guests part of the same party from different areas when they request so." Kyoya stated coolly.

Haruhi could just imagine Tamaki begging Kyoya to let them use them.

For a while they sat in silence before it was broken by Kyoya's voice.

"I am sorry, Haruhi." His voice was quiet, Haruhi thought there was some emotion in it but he was looking outside his window.

"Of course you know" Haruhi was quiet for a minute. "Why didn't you tell the others?"

"I could ask you the same thing." Kyoya returned.

They stopped talking again, deciding Haruhi wasn't going to say anymore Kyoya began again.

"Why aren't you curious as to Mori's and Hunny's mothers?"

"Uh, well, I don't know how to say it really, but I think they get the relationship they would have with their mothers from each other. Mori would be helping support and care for his mother and Hunny can still act as a child. They don't need anyone else."

"Is that why you comforted, Mori? Because he needed someone." Kyoya asked without hesitation.

"Umm, yeah, I reckon so." Haruhi said vaguely, looking out her window.

"would you have any objection to me telling you what I think?" Kyoya said suddenly.

"I guess not." Haruhi managed to strangle out after taking in his question.

"I think you saw yourself in Mori today; you wished that someone would help you when you are like that so you helped." When Haruhi didn't answer Kyoya continued. "Today you needed someone, you can always ask for any host, I hope you realise, but three days ago, when you said I could trust you, you were mistaken, I don't need someone else to get through my mother's death."

"You're lying." Haruhi stated after a little while.

"Why would you think that?"

"A number of reasons, one, I know what it is like to lose your mother and don't believe it couldn't have affected you but you are too high and mighty to show your weakness, two, you understood everything I have said, so you know how it feels confirming my first point, three, you didn't deny it just then, merely curious as to how I knew and finally, two days ago, whenyou were leaving and these last few days, you have been happier, letting things go a little easier, you at least appreciated my words during the storm."

Kyoya was shocked, he couldn't really breathe until eventually released him from her stare to look out her window. "That's an interesting notion, in its own way."

Thanks to those who favourite, followed and reviewed, sorry I never really finished it until now but here is another chapter, tell me what you think and hopefully I will be able to write more.
