Chapter Four: Forgiveness
After finally getting Tamaki too calm down, Chloe continued her story. "After that outburst of mine, he apologized and explained that he was just trying too help. Then, he made a point to come everyday for a whole summer and I even went to his cottage a few times. Then..." Chloe broke off and put her head in her hands. Kyoya touched her shoulder and she buried her head in his chest. He stroked her back until she calmed down, meanwhile, the host club sat in awe.
Kyoya continued for her, "Then one day, we went back to Japan."
Chloe lifted her head. "But I didn't know that. He never told me he was leaving, and I was so worried about him. It wasn't until the next day, when he told me in an email, that I knew what had happened."
"I am so sorry about that Chloe, I just couldn't bear to say goodbye. I took the cowards way out." Kyoya apologized. "I'm also sorry I never contacted you after that email, I just couldn't do it. I couldn't hear your voice again.
By this point, Tamaki and the twins were in tears, sobbing and saying, "That is such a beautiful story!"
Chloe rolled her eyes. "You guys are such drama queens!" Then she turned back to Kyoya, "It's okay Kyo, I knew that, I was just sad and lonely without you. Kyoya frowned, "By the way, how are you able to attend Ouran?"
"Umm... well basically, my family got a letter from the chairman telling us that someone had contacted him years ago. The man told him that he was my great grandfather. Apparently, my whole tuition has been payed for all three years, but they didn't find me until now."
"Wow," the twins said. "What do they do with the money that would have been payed for your first year?"
"It goes to me when I graduate. Plus he left a bunch of money that pays for my apartment my car, and my other expenses." Chloe replied.
Suddenly, Haruhi jumped up. "Oh my gosh! We forgot to call a locksmith and my dad will be home any minute!" she panicked.
Don't worry." Kyoya said, "Chloe, you can come over to my house while we get this sorted out."
"Okay," Chloe agreed.
The twins, Honey, and Mori went home, while Chloe and Kyoya helped Haruhi clean her apartment. Then, they hopped into Kyoya's limo, and headed for his house.
When they arrived at the mansion, Chloe was amazed at how big it was. It was much bigger than hid cottage in America. She did not, however, let her emotions She kept cool and hid behind her mask.
Kyoya led her inside, and they immediately headed for the stairs so they wouldn't attract much attention from the servants.
Chloe began to get nervous, as she climbed the stairs to Kyoya's room. The last time she and Kyoya had been in a room alone, was five years ago.
He opened the door for her and followed her inside, closing it behind them. Chloe looked around the large room and crossed to the mahogany dresser. On it, was a picture of the two of them sitting on a park bench. Chloe had the same picture on her night stand.
"That was a good day," Kyoya said from behind her, obviously letting his guard down a bit.
"Yeah, it really was."
"Can you really forgive me? After all I did? After that last night?" he asked.
"Yeah, I know you just needed to move on." she said.
They looked at each other with expressions of longing and sadness for the old days. Kyoya came closer to Chloe and she felt her heat beat faster. She couldn't hold the rest of her façade any longer. She crossed the rest of the distance between them and hugged him.
