"Hear me"

Chapter 3- " Forgiveness"

The bell rang and girl known for us as Haruchi Fujioka decided it's time to get for next lesson. She walked to her new seat, unaware of jealous and angry glares of girls and admiring glances of boys. She didn't know that during break she became very popular. She was the only girl to slap famous Hikaru Hitachiin and call him a pervert. Many girls would kill to be kissed by him, to even be looked at and she, that ignorant commoner ignored that chance! That's why most girl decided there was something wrong with her. Boys-completely opposite- thought how amazing she was- to be kissed by him and don't be all over heels in love with him...

Meanwhile, Haruhi oblivious to her name whispered between classmates, sat and started to read fascinating book about law. (A/N I thought that because she wants to be a lawyer she may read books about law...)

In the same moment, another object of gossips came to the class. Hikaru seemed to be absent minded and Kaoru was walking beside him with discreet smirk on face. Suddenly, Hikaru looked at his seat and paled at sight of Haruhi...

" What are you doing! This is my seat!", he exclaimed. There was a bit of fear in his voice. His twin smirked even more widely. Haruhi slowly raised her eyes and glared straight into Hikaru's golden ones.

"To your information, Mr. kissing machine, this is my seat. It seems you are quite forgetful."

(A/N Sorry I couldn't help myself...Haruhi calling Hikaru kissing machine is so funny;))

Hikaru gulped.

"Do you have something more to say?", she added disinterested in whole situation.

Her uncaring tone of voice seemed to wake Hikaru from some kind of strange trance.

"No matter what, you are just a girl and even worse- commoner. You have no right to do whatever you want. ", he said bravely. Whole class watched in anticipation what will happen next.

"I pity you. Maybe you are rich, but it's me who worked harder to get place in this school, while you are here only, because your family have money."

"So, to put it simply, you think that I am stupid?", Hikaru's voice betrayed anger.

"I never said that.", she replied calmly. "But, you know, the commoners you despise so much, work every day, so you can live peacefully, do absolutely nothing, and live in luxury."

"Yeah, but it's rich class like me and my family who pay for their work."

"Then, why are you even arguing with me? In my opinion commoners are no worse than rich people. Isn't it more important what you have inside, than what class you are?"

The class fell silent. Everyone seemed to notice something more in the girl, which seemed to

think more openly than all of them.

Hikaru was didn't answer for a long while. 'This girl... She is...different...' he thought with nice surprise. He felt that hope deep within him, when she slapped him. That she is no ordinary girl, liking people for their looks or money.

What a strange feeling...Hope...It starts to burn like small, unnoticed flame, and gradually becomes bigger and bigger, filling you with it's light and warmth...Hope...

"I am sorry", Hikaru said quietly.

"What for?", she asked rising eyebrows questioningly. Hikaru's face blushed visibly.

"For...kissing you and stuff...", he murmured embarrassed. Love crazed fangirls fainted at sight of their idol, first time seeing him unsure what to say.

"Moe!", screamed few of them.

"I forgive you.", Haruhi said, oblivious to tense atmosphere surrounding class. Hikaru relaxed slightly. "So, are you going to sit or not? Lesson should start in..."

"Please, sit down class. We are going to start lesson now.", said teacher.

Kaoru P.O.V.

Unbelievable. He said sorry to her. He loves her even more than I thought. Hikaru never said sorry to anyone, excluding me. He is too proud. And too dense for his own good. It seems I will have to have a meeting about this with Host Club. This girl...She is special. Intelligent, beautiful, kind hearted...Lucky Hikaru. I won't let him loose such girl. He would never forgive me anyway... Well it's time for operation...Matchmaking!

So I'll end in this critical moment. How is Kao going to get our stubborn pair together? What part Host Club will take? Is Tamaki going to become less idiotic? (I'm joking. It's not possible in this story;)
