A/N: Typical Tamaki and the twins deciding that they were going to show up at Haruhi's house regardless of what she said. LOL. Thank you everyone for reading this story. It has been really fun to write and I love writing about the relationship within the family. There will be a lot more in future chapters. If you get the chance, please review and let me know what you think.

Chapter 8 – Weekend Plans Go Awry

After dinner on Friday night, Haruhi and Mori were pulled into the study by Michiko and Akira Morinozuka. The couple wondered why Mori's parents were calling them in to talk to them, but they promptly followed and sat down on one of the sofas that occupied the large room waiting for one of them to explain the impromptu meeting. Both were feeling a bit nervous about what the reason could be.

Akira studied his son and Haruhi. She was good for him and he was glad that Mori had found her. He could also see the worry in both of their eyes, but neither tried to let it show. It took a lot of strength to not let your emotions rule you and he was impressed. There were times when emotions were needed and times when you had to take control of them. He decided it was time to put them out of their misery, "Relax you two. We only called you in here to talk to you both about the meeting I had with Takashi yesterday."

"What do you need father?" Mori asked.

"Haruhi we brought you in here because we figured that Takashi would have informed you about the discussion he and his father had," Michiko explained.

"Yes, he told me what was said," Haruhi said.

"Did you two talk about informing your friends about your relationship?" Akira inquired.

"We did. We will tell them on Monday since we will be busy tomorrow. However, we have recently learned that although Haruhi explained to both of the Hitachiin twins and Tamaki that she would be busy all weekend, the club is planning on bombarding her house tomorrow afternoon. It is scheduled for 1:00. Mitsukuni will be attending to keep an eye on the club," Mori explained.

"Also, Kyoya-senpai already knows of the relationship," Haruhi added.

"Why not have Mitsukuni and Kyoya change the club plans for tomorrow then?" Michiko asked.

"To teach them a lesson and Kyoya doesn't know that she will be here. He is probably going along with Tamaki to make sure he doesn't cause too much trouble," Mori said simply.

"I told them I would be busy all weekend with my father and that they could not come over. I also informed them that I would probably not be home. They decided to ignore me once again and make plans to show up at my house," Haruhi explained further.

"I see. I can see why you are allowing the plans to continue as is then. What about Sunday though?" Akira asked.

"I will be home unfortunately. I need to study for a test, but I know that more than likely they will show up at my apartment to harass me. If they do, we will tell them then," Haruhi answered.

Michiko shared a look with her husband and a silent communication passed between the two. A very mischievous look appeared on both of their faces when they turned back to the young couple once again, "Haruhi, do you think that you would be able to spend the weekend here? You could ride to school with Takashi and Mitsukuni on Monday morning. I am more than happy to call your father and ask him if you would like," she asked the girl.

Haruhi looked at Takashi and then back to his parents, "I guess I could."

"It would allow you to study in peace and would further your point that you were busy the whole weekend," Akira explained.

Haruhi smiled, "Ok, I will ask my father tonight."

"Is he at home? I want to be sure to call him myself so that he doesn't worry or get the wrong idea since he is very protective of you. I know he has to work tomorrow night, so you can just bring your clothes when you come over tomorrow morning," Michiko said.

"No he is already working, but we can call the bar," Haruhi offered.

"Perfect! Let's call him now then," Michiko said and signaled Haruhi to follow her out of the room.

When both ladies were gone, Akira chuckled, "It is a good plan."

Mori allowed a smile to appear on his face, "Yes, I wanted them to know that when she said she was busy, she was busy."

"Good. Was she ok with everything when you talked to her?" Akira wondered.

"She didn't realize that the others had feelings for her. She feels bad, but will not let that get in the way of us."

"That is very good to hear. She is good for you Takashi. Your mother and I both approve of her."

"Thank you father, that means a lot to us."

"How serious are you about her?"

"We love each other and she is the one I plan on marrying one day."

"I thought so. Tamaki's father has decided that his son would benefit from a union with Haruhi. So this goes beyond Tamaki saying that he would marry her one day. Be careful. Suoh can be conniving, but I believe that once he understands that she is already spoken for, he will drop his suit. However, if it comes down to it, she has the full support of the Morinozuka and Haninozuka families in everything," Akira explained.

"Thank you father," Mori said understanding what all that encompassed. If Tamaki's father pushed the match and held Haruhi's schooling over her head, she would still be able to attend because the family would make sure she was taken care of. They would protect her and ensure she was completely taken care of in all aspects of her life if needed. This was not something that was lightly decided upon or freely given to just anyone. Haruhi was special.

"Well, shall we join the others again?" Akira said walking towards the door.

"Yes," Mori responded quietly. He was thinking about how people were vying for Haruhi's heart and no one other than himself had declared their feelings for her. Haruhi was not someone to be forced or pushed into something. He could see this ending very badly.

Mori and Akira were just exiting the study when Haruhi and Michiko appeared. When Haruhi saw Mori, she immediately walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his waist smiling, "Dad said it was fine if I stayed, and to make sure that he didn't have to deal with the club, he is going to be staying with a friend until Monday."

"Good. I guess we will be telling them on Monday instead of this weekend," Mori said returning her smile and embrace.

"Yep. Now my house won't be trashed. I know we had a plan for that, but now we can be sure; and it drives home the lesson even further," Haruhi laughed. She was really starting to like this plan of his.

Mori bent down and kissed the top of her head, "Yes it does."

"Come on you two; let's go see what trouble the others have gotten into. I need to make sure that Chika is still conscious," Mori's mother said.

"He better be. I took the shinai away from Satoshi and told him that he could not have it back until I left," Haruhi explained giggling.

Michiko looked at Haruhi with a bit of shock on her face. She turned her head to look at her husband and noticed that he was very close to breaking down in laughter. "He didn't go get another?"

"Mori told him that he better not," Haruhi was starting to laugh harder.

Akira sent a questioning look to his son who just shrugged. That was all it took before he was laughing too, "Well we still need to check to make sure that Mitsukuni and Chika didn't destroy the house or move the fight outside."

They found Satoshi and Chika watching a movie in the theatre room and Hunny was finishing off the cakes he brought with him. Michiko just shook her head. She knew they were sugar free, but the way he ate cake could be made into an Olympic sport.

It was soon time for Haruhi to go home. She had some things she had to take care of before she went to bed tonight. She wouldn't worry about her homework until later now that she knew there was no way the host club would be bothering her this weekend. "Kyoya is going to be so mad," Haruhi laughed to herself as she said good bye to everyone. She needed to make sure she shut off her phone for the weekend or it would ring incessantly breaking all semblance of a peaceful weekend.

Mori escorted Haruhi out to the car and climbed into the back after she did. Pulling her to his side, he again kissed the top of her head before she looked up and he kissed her lips. "I am glad you are staying the weekend at my house," Mori said when they broke apart.

"Hm. Me too. It will be a nice break and I get to spend quality time with you," Haruhi smiled up at him.

"Are you nervous about telling them?" Mori asked her. He wanted to tell her what he found out tonight, but he didn't want to have to spill that bit of information and then leave her alone. He would tell her tomorrow after her father left and they had a bit of alone time.

"Not nervous about telling them because I am unsure, but because I don't want to see anyone hurt."

"I know you don't and if I could spare our friends this pain, I would, but they need to know."

"Yes they do."

"If you are ever unsure, will you tell me?"

"Of course I will Takashi, but about the only I have been more sure about was going into law."

Mori smiled down at the amazing woman at his side, "I too have never been surer." Leaning down to kiss her one more time, the rest of the ride was spent in silence.

Once she was dropped off, Haruhi went into the apartment to prepare for the weekend. She packed her bag and made sure she had everything she would need to study and do her homework. She didn't worry about her uniform since she had been told to leave the one that she wore today there and they would make sure it was cleaned. Finally she was ready and sending a quick text to her boyfriend, she finally drifted off to sleep.

The next morning Haruhi woke up with a smile on her face and a spring in her step. She felt guilty that Hunny and Kyoya were being pulled into the foolishness of the others, but she was also looking forward to spending the whole weekend with Mori. Letting her father sleep as late as possible, she made breakfast and then woke him up. They needed to be at the Morinozuka estate by 11:00 and it was 9:00 now. Her father always took the longest time to get ready to go out. At least they didn't need to worry about how they were getting there since Mori's parents were sending a car.

Ranka woke up a little cranky and a lot groggy. He was able to leave his shift early at the bar, but that still did not get him home until after midnight. Luckily, last night he was able to switch tonight's shift with someone else so that he would work on Sunday instead. He ate breakfast and then went to start getting ready, making sure he packed his overnight bag as well.

Soon both of them were ready and the car had arrived to pick them up. They were on their way and they would not have to worry about the host club intruding on their weekend.

Tamaki had woken up that bright Saturday morning at 9:00. He was in a good mood since today was the day he would win over Ranka and be able to participate in family time with both of them. Unfortunately the rest of the club was also tagging along, but it could not be helped and he would make sure that today he was the star of the show. He would no longer be on Ranka's bad side and he would prove to him that Haruhi was in good hands when she was with him. Nothing could go wrong today. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and he had a plan.

The host club was set to meet at Haruhi's house at 1:00. He had plenty of time, so he sent on of the servants to get flowers, chocolates, and cake (for Hunny of course). Instructing the chef to prepare some ootoro, he went into the dining room to enjoy his breakfast.

Haruhi and her father pulled up to Mori's house and got out of the limo when the car door was opened. She was not expecting her boyfriend until later because he was supposed to be doing a kendo demo this morning with his brother, but there he was waiting on the porch for her. She tried to grab her bags from the driver, but he would not let them go and instead smiled at her and told her to go greet her boyfriend. Taking him up on his offer (she knew it was pointless to argue), she moved quickly to Mori and was soon in his arms receiving a kiss. It appeared he was also in a good mood.

Once Mori set her down, he greeted Ranka with a bow and was pulled into a hug by the older man. Smiling at his girlfriend's father, he thanked him for letting Haruhi stay for the weekend and for attending the demonstration.

Ranka laughed and said, "Anything to teach that idiot Tamaki a lesson!" He had never really liked Tamaki and he wasn't sure what could be done to change his opinion of him. He smiled at his daughter and her boyfriend. Although he wasn't quite ready to let her go completely, Mori was a good man and very respectful. Ranka couldn't help but like him.

Hunny popped his head out of the front door, "Haru-Chan, Ranka-Chan you made it!" He flew out of the door and hugged both of them.

"Hunny, I thought you weren't coming today because of the club," Haruhi said confused.

"I decided I would come for the demo and if there was time, lunch. I made sure I brought some cake with me though. Do you want some?" Hunny said excitedly.

Haruhi smiled at the shorter man. Hunny on sugar was not much different than Hunny off sugar as long as he had some sweets. "No, I will let you have your cakes," she said.

"Ok Haru-Chan. Takashi, your father said you need to go out to the dojo," Hunny said quickly remembering his task.

"I will see you later," Mori said to Haruhi before he leaned down and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek. He bowed to Ranka and then disappeared into the house.

"Come on, let's go find our seats," Hunny said laughing and leading the way into the house. He was excited about everything that would happen later that day. Knowing that Haruhi was staying the weekend with Mori, made everything even funnier since he knew that they would try again tomorrow once today's plan was a failure. They never seemed to learn and always wanted to force themselves on the poor girl, but this weekend would be different. Today and tomorrow they would not get the opportunity and Hunny thought that was comical.

After the demo and mingling with guests, Hunny left at promptly 12:30 to make sure he made it to Haruhi's on time. He wanted to make sure he got there early in order to watch the reactions of everyone when they realized no one was home. If he was lucky, he would make it back for tea time later in the afternoon after the other guests had left so that he could tell everyone what happened.

Hunny was the first to arrive and waited in his car until another host showed up. It turned out that Kyoya, Tamaki, and the twins all rode together in the same car. When he saw them pull up, he exited his car and ran up to them greeting all of them with his normal bubbly personality and excitement.

"Where is Mori-senpai?" Kaoru asked Hunny.

"He had kendo and family obligations this weekend. His family was hosting a kendo demonstration this morning for some of their business associates," Hunny explained not divulging the fact that Haruhi and her father were also guests.

"Are you ok without him?" Hikaru asked.

Hunny rolled his eyes. He may look young, but he wasn't exactly helpless. Plastering on a big smile, he said, "I am fine Hika-Chan."

Tamaki was glad that there was one less host to contend with since it would allow more of the spot light to shine on him, and he would have a better chance of impressing Ranka. He looked at all of the hosts present and said, "I expect all of you to be on your best behavior. They are having family time, but since we are family to, it is only right that we are allowed to join in. As her father, it is only natural that I be able to commune peacefully with Ranka."

"Right!" Everyone except Kyoya yelled in agreement.

"There will be no mocking anything today. You are to be cordial and amenable," Tamaki continued.

"Right!" Everyone agreed again.

"Ok that is all men, let's go see my dear daughter," Tamaki gushed. He led the charge and ran up the stairs to her apartment and knocked on the door before everyone had joined him. When he received no answer, he knocked again and rang the doorbell. When he still received no answer, he started to pound on the door and yelling for Haruhi to answer, "Haruhi it is daddy! Answer the door!" Slowly panic started to build up in his chest, "Kyoya she isn't answering! What is she is hurt and injured in there? What if she is sick and can't answer the door? We need to help her! Hikaru, Kaoru see if you can spot anything through the window."

Hunny was trying very hard not to laugh, but Tamaki was making it increasingly difficult. Still he watched on with what he hoped was a concerned look on his face.

"Boss we can't see anything through the window," Hikaru said. He was letting Tamaki get to him and the worry was also building up in him.

"Maybe nobody is home. She did say that she was going to be busy with her father all weekend," Kaoru added.

"But they are poor. They can't afford to go anywhere. They stay home and look at each other for quality time. Kidnappers must have taken them and sold them into slavery. Mommy what are we going to do?" Tamaki wailed.

"Tamaki calm down. She did tell us that she would not be home because she would be out with her father. She may be a commoner, but she isn't so poor that they are beggars," Kyoya said frustrated with Tamaki for dragging him out this weekend. "She apparently isn't home right now."

"Tono, maybe we should try calling her cell phone," the twins suggested.

"Her cell phone? Since when does she have a cell phone?" Tamaki asked.

"Since we added her to our calling plan," Hikaru said bluntly pulling out his cell phone and dialing Haruhi's number. "Straight to voicemail."

Kyoya knew that he would not get any peace and quiet until all avenues were explored. He called Ranka's phone and got voice mail also, "Ranka's is also going to voicemail."

"What are we going to do? She could be lost and alone calling for me to come save her!" Tamaki was losing it.

"Tama-Chan, if she is spending time with her father, maybe she is not home and we should leave," Hunny suggested. He was still trying to hold in his amusement at the whole situation and was afraid he might break soon.

"She wouldn't do that without telling us!" Tamaki yelled.

Kyoya, Hikaru, and Kaoru face palmed. Hunny stepped back and looked as if he wanted to cry (it was an act). Finally Kyoya growled, "She did tell us you moron. She said several times that she would be busy with her father and would not be home. You insisted we come anyway."

"Don't be mad mommy. Fine, if they are gone for now, we will reconvene tonight at 6:00 right here. If you would like to come over to my house to wait it out, please come with me," Tamaki said softly shrinking back a little from the irritation that was flying off of Kyoya.

"I will have to meet you Tama-Chan since I am supposed to be at the dojo at 4:00," Hunny said simply.

"Ok Hunny-senpai. You do what you need to do and we will all meet back here at 6:00. Any questions men?"

"Nope," everyone except Kyoya said.

Tamaki and the twins flew down the stairs and into their car. Kyoya and Hunny were taking their time and Kyoya wondered if Hunny knew more than what he was letting on, "Hunny-senpai, do you know where Haruhi is?"

Hunny giggled and nodded. Since Kyoya knew about the relationship and wasn't really supporting this plan of Tamaki's, he felt it was safe to inform him about what was going on, "She is staying the weekend with Takashi. She and her father were included on the guest list for this morning's events at the Morinozuka estate. We decided not to tell all of you because they wanted to teach those three a lesson and I agreed with them."

"So when we come over tonight?" Kyoya asked.

"No one will be home. Ranka is staying with a friend. In fact Haruhi will be a guest at Takashi's house until Monday morning. Then after club on Monday, they will inform everyone about their relationship," Hunny giggled some more.

"So you are telling me that I have to put up with those three morons going back and forth all weekend and she won't be home at all. I knew something like that was going to happen and tried to tell them not to do this hair brained scheme."

"Sorry Kyo-Chan. I don't think if you told them that she was staying with a friend all weekend that they would listen, but you can try. Something tells me that if you did that though, they would bring you back here tomorrow night."

"I think you may be right Hunny-senpai, but that one trip is better than a weekend of back and forth," Kyoya leered at Tamaki who was engrossed in conversation with the twins.

"Let me know if the plans for tonight change," Hunny called as he made his way to his own car. It was time to get more cake.

Kyoya hit a couple of buttons and made the ringer on his phone go off. He pretended to answer the phone and carry on a fake conversation. Pretending to be talking to Ranka and getting fake answers was better than going back and forth all weekend. He "hung up" the phone and then got into the car, "Tamaki that was Ranka. He and Haruhi went on a weekend trip to have some bonding time. They are not even home and will not be all weekend! You dragged us over here for nothing. She told us she wasn't going to be home!"

Tamaki gulped. He thought he had a good plan and that it was full proof. What he didn't count on was the fact that they may leave town. It hadn't even crossed his mind that they would never be home when he visited. He looked down knowing his best friend was mad at him and quietly said, "Well I guess we will not meet tonight and instead we could maybe meet tomorrow night."

"I suggest that we wait and see her on Monday!" Kyoya snarled.

"But Mommy, we need to have family time! I know she wants to see us. If you can't come, then the rest of us will come over without you," Tamaki whined.

The twins readily agreed with Tamaki. They wanted to see Haruhi also and were disappointed that she had not been home. It was time she remembered who was important in her life.

Kyoya pushed his glasses up and said, "Fine, I guess I will come too. Someone has to keep an eye on you three idiots." He sent a quick text to Hunny about the change of plans and told him that he would inform him of the time as soon as he knew. He understood why she had run away for the weekend, but he hated to be saddled with the three dramatic teens for their weekend plans. Thinking of how much he could add to her debt for this inconvenience, he threw another glare towards Tamaki and the twins. He would get them back for this weekend.
