"Marriage!?"

Nekozawa looked at her with a saddened expression. "That's why I would like for you to think about it."

"Alright I'll think about it..."

"Seriously?"

"You sound more curious at my answer than happy about it."

"No, no sorry its just that I didn't expect that."

"Well I do like you and I think it would be fun but..."

"The moving in and sudden marriage thing?"

"Yeah that's a bit much." Haruhi said as she rubbed her tired eyes.

"I understand." Nekozawa patted Haruhi's head and continued watching TV. "Remember you don't have to answer me right now."

Haruhi rested her head on Nekozawa's shoulder and sleepily said, "I know, I know..." She quickly fell asleep like that.

"What am I going to do with you Haruhi? I didn't expect to fall in love with you. I didn't expect you to be so interesting, I didn't expect you lived this kind of life, I didn't expect you to actually think about it and I certainly didn't expect..."

"Ume...hito...I love...you..."

"And I certainly didn't expect you were going to be the girl I want to marry with all my heart." Nekozawa could feel his heart pounding but he knew Haruhi couldn't sleep like that forever so he picked her up carefully, almost like a princess and found her room then set her on her bed. "Haruhi I'm going to sleep in the living room okay?" He looked at her for a few moments. 'Ah...I guess its okay then.' He started to get up from her bed side when he felt Haruhi's hand on his. He instantly blushed and thought he would have a heart attack with how much his heart was pounding. "H-Haruhi?"

"Don't go...stay here..."

Nekozawa smiled and sat beside her bed. 'Alright I'll stay. Even though I'm afraid of what your father might say if he finds me in here...' "Your wish is my command."


Nekozawa was sound asleep until he felt something punch his shoulder really hard. "OW! WHAT THE HELL!? WHO THE HELL!?"

"Oh so you aren't Tamaki after all, my bad." Nekozawa looked up and saw a man wearing a White T-Shirt and a pair of black and red stripped pajama pants. "You must be Haruhi's friend."

"Yes. Sorry for the intrusion. My name is Umehito Nekozawa. You must be Haruhi's father."

"You would be correct...Neko - Chan. Why are you in my daughter's room?"

"Well she fell asleep on my shoulder in the living room as we were watching TV and so I picked her up and put her on her bed. I was going to go sleep in the living room but she told me to stay. She also told me that she lpves me in her sleep when she fell asleep in the living room but that was probably just sleep talk right?"

"Hmm Thank you for telling me all that. I'm not mad considering you slept on the floor and not in bed with her but here's and interesting thing to learn about Haruhi. She always tells the truth when she talks in her sleep. So if she said she loves you and she was asleep when she said it..." Ranka smiled at Nekozawa and winked.

Nekozawa blushed and heard someone else walk in. "Oh so you're finally awake. Why is your face all red?" He looked at Haruhi dressed up in a red spaghetti strap shirt and blue jeans.

"Haruhi he is blushing because you said something embarrassing in your sleep again." Ranka smiled even more.

"WHAT!? Tell me what I said please!?" Nekozawa just shook his head no. "Dad? He told you so please tell me."

"It's not our fault that you don't remember." Ranka laughed and patted his daughter on the head. "You always remember eventually."

"Fine whatever. Would you like some breakfast Umehito?" Nekozawa immediately covered his face with his hands and ran into the restroom. "W-What did I say?" She looked at her dad and he just stood there smiling a huge smile.

"First name huh? Wow he must be someone very special to my little Haruhi."

Haruhi then realized that she called him by his first name, and not only that but in front of her dad. "I...Um...he..."

"Relax Haruhi. I like him. If you two end up getting in a relationship I'll agree to it."

"Yeah well he did kind of ask me out but there is a um...condition."

"A condition? What type of condition?" Nekozawa immediately ran out of the bathroom covering Haruhi's mouth. "Neko - Chan. You will let go of my daughter this instant and tell me what this condition is for dating my daughter."

"Well um. You see I like to be shrouded in darkness a lot and my mother and father didn't like it so much. I also told them that, that would be the reason I would never get a girlfriend. So my father came up with the idea that if I indeed couldn't get a girlfriend throughout all my high school life then I could have my own mansion as dark as I like."

"And if you did get a girlfriend?" He noticed Haruhi blush at that point.

"She...would have to live with me in a separate house and be my...wife..." Nekozawa was ready for shouting and good beating.

"Is that all?" Is what he got instead.

"What?" Both Haruhi and Nekozawa questioned.

"I am seriously asking if that's all. Is there more?"

"Well I guess we wouldn't be getting married until both of us graduated but she would have to move in immediately with me into a separate house. It would be a small commoner house."

"For some reason I feel insulted."

"No you shouldn't feel insulted my dad used to be a commoner. He only got as much money as he got because he became a part of my mom's family. So you shouldn't feel insulted and he would be paying for everything...That is of course...that um...I do get Haruhi as my...G-Girlfriend."

"Wow I never expected that. So your dad used to be a commoner?"

Haruhi's mouth dropped. "That's the part you're concerned with!?"

"Hey I'm not the one who said I love him in my sleep...Shit...um Haruhi?"

Haruhi blushed a deep red and ran into the kitchen. "I'm going to cook breakfast now!"

Ranka sighed. "What a troublesome girl. She never wants to hear from anyone else what she says when she sleep talks, but honestly that used to be the only way I could get her to tell me anything."

"Really?"

"Yeah. When her mom died she started taking on almost all the responsibility of the house. She never said when she was tired or sick. The only time I would figure that stuff out was either when she collapsed from exhaustion or when she got sick so much I would have to take her to the doctor immediately. Then one time when she fell asleep from watching TV I carried her to bed and I asked out loud, "Haruhi why won't you tell me when you're tired or sick?" This was only a couple weeks after her mom had passed away, but to my surprise she answered me back with, "Because...then daddy would be worried about me...and not his...job." I replied back with, "It's daddy's job to worry about you Haruhi." She answered back with something that shot me in the heart. "Right now daddy is very sad...that mommy died and he won't get to...see her anymore. I can take care of everything...until...daddy is happy again." I didn't know what else to say but I left her room and I honestly cried. I had no idea that I had caused her so much worry or that she noticed I was sad everyday. She keeps everything bottled up even to this day. Sometimes she will act strong all by herself acting like she can do it all on her own when in reality she wants some help and a shoulder to cry on. I'm just happy she has someone she can tell those things to."

Nekozawa was wiping away the tears off his face and looked up at Ranka. "Who would that be?"

"Neko - Chan...I thought you would know by now...It's you. She immediately told you that she doesn't like thunderstorms, she trusted you enough for you to be in the same room as her, and you even helped her when you two went to the amusement park and she didn't want to be seen by her club mates."

"H-How do you know about all that?"

"She told me through text message. She went on and on about how you act during school and that you're in the black magic club but no one guess that if they got to know you and that...she's very happy that you made her that lucky charm." He saw Nekozawa blush and smiled. "I don't mind you dating my daughter. Considering how you mouthed off to your parents the conditions seem reasonable and as long as you don't marry her until after graduation I don't mind."

"But?"

"But if you do anything to make her cry I will call the host club boys and they will either confront you as a group or each one will confront you personally. Then you have to deal with me. I have seen plenty of my daughters tears even when she thinks no one is looking. I don't need you to make her cry."

"Could you at least tell me the one thing that makes her cry the most?"

"Yeah...its when she feels alone. Oh and you have to find a special way to ask her to be your girlfriend. My Haruhi deserves the best considering what she's been through."

"Yes sir."

"Oh and one more thing you are Neko - Chan not Tamaki. You don't need formalities around me. Just call me Ranka."

"Yes...Ranka...That's still weird."

"Well get used to it. I'm practically giving you my daughter which I will admit is so unlike me but I'm making a special exception in your case. Don't make me regret it. Oh and one more thing. I will be driving you both to school and I can visit whenever I want."

"How are you sure she'll even say yes?" Ranka was about to talk but they both heard Haruhi shout.

"Dad, Umehito breakfast is ready!"

"Well I'd say that's a good sign considering you are her Senpai and she is still using your first name. She also didn't deny not loving you. Now lets go eat." Ranka went into the kitchen with a blushing Nekozawa.

"Why is his face all red again."

"We had a man to man talk. Nothing that you need to be concerned about yet my little Haruhi."

"Yet?"

"Ooh you made Omelets my favorite!"

"Oh well I guess I'll figure it out later. Umehito I made you some tea instead of coffee."

"T-Thanks Haruhi."

"No problem." She smiled. "You did say that you like tea." Ranka just smiled and continued eating.
