Sorry for the wait!!! Well here's the next chapter, i hope you enjoy!


Haruhi was worried. It had been 2 hours since Rei had left to talk to Hikaru. And there was word from her yet. She had tried calling Rei 5 times but there was no answer. Haruhi sighed and grabbed her jacket before running to the park. She ran down the paths throughout the park and stopped by the fountain. She sat down and waited to catch her breath. She had been searching for half an hour now and there was no sign of her or Hikaru. Haruhi sighed.

'Just five more minutes' Haruhi thought walking past the fountain. She suddenly heard wheezing and coughing coming from further ahead. Haruhi cautiously approached the noise and was shocked to see Rei curled up on the ground coughing up blood. Haruhi quickly pulled out her phone and called for an ambulance. 'Rei…what happened?'


The next day both Rei and Haruhi were absent from school. Tamaki was going on a rampage about his missing daughter.

"WHERE IS SHE?! I BET THAT REI IS BEHIND THIS!!!" Tamaki was yelling. Hikaru looked away knowing the reason for Rei's absence and if his hunch was right, Haruhi would be with him.

"Tamaki" Kyouya's voice stopped Tamaki's rant "it appears that Rei has been checked into the hospital" Kyouya said.

"Hospital?" Tamaki questioned suddenly feeling bad for accusing Rei of doing something lecherous to his daughter.

"Yes, apparently he was badly beaten and had several internal injuries" Kyouya explain. Hikaru looked down shamefully knowing that he was the cause of it.

"Will Rei-chan be okay?" Hunni asked tugging Kyouya's sleeve.

"It doesn't say" Kyouya said frowning at the lack of information.

"Let's go visit him!" Hunni exclaimed running towards the door.

"We can go after the club" Kyouya said glancing towards the twins, who had been quiet throughout the ordeal. Tamaki nodded in agreement and prepared to let the girls in.


"Your friend has stabilized, but is still badly injured. We will be running more tests on her when she awakes" the doctor explained to Haruhi.

"If anyone comes to visit please don't let them in, they don't know that she is a girl" Haruhi said quietly.

"I will do my best, however, if they have the power to override my orders than there is nothing further that I can do" the doctor explained.

"Then can I at least bind her chest so that…" she trailed off and looked up at the doctor. The doctor nodded showing that he understood and would allow it. Haruhi gave him a quick 'thank you' and walked into Rei room. She had a black eye and a split lip. Haruhi bit her lip and grabbed some bandages. She saw the bruises on Rei's back and stomach, the scratches on her arms, and held back her tears. She slowly began to bind the chest of her best friend. When she was done she pulled up a chair by the bed and began to cry. Haruhi felt guilty, Rei had always stood up for her and protected her, but when it was time to return the favor she didn't. And now, her best friend was in the hospital, bloody and beaten. She heard shouting in the hallway and looked up. She easily recognized Tamaki's voice and wiped away her tears. The door opened and there stood the Host Club. They looked at Rei in shock, then glanced at Haruhi.

"What happened?" Hunni asked with tears swelling in his eyes.

"I don't know" Haruhi looked away "I was walking through the park when I found him on the ground coughing up blood" Haruhi said sadly.

"Will he be alright?" this time it was Tamaki who asked a question.

"I don't know. The doctors said that he finally stabilized but they can't run anymore tests until he wakes up…if he wakes up" Haruhi added the last part sadly. Hikaru couldn't look, Rei's fragile broken body lay before him and he couldn't look. He couldn't look at the damage he had done. Kaoru looked at Rei, and sadness filled his heart.

'Who could do such a thing?' He wondered, he glanced at his brother and saw the pain etched onto his face. He was mumbling to himself. Kaoru leaned over slightly to hear his words.

"All my fault…what have I done…it's all my fault…what have I done" Kaoru stumbled away from his brother in shock.

'No, no… he couldn't…he wouldn't…I know he has anger problems but he would never…' Kaoru stared at his brother with a look of disbelief. Hikaru looked at him and as soon as their eyes met they knew. Knew that it was Hikaru who did it, knew that Kaoru knew it was him. Hikaru began to talk but Kaoru cut him off.

"No" the hosts looked at the two. "Get out" Kaoru muttered "Get out!!!" he yelled pushing his brother away. The hosts stared in shock. Hikaru looked away from the penetrating eyes and ran from the room. Haruhi looked at Kaoru and realized what had happened. Her fists tightened.

"You guys should leave, it's getting late" she spoke in a calm voice. Everyone stared at her before nodding and heading out of the front door. Kyouya stayed behind to speak with her.

"Since you missed today another 100 designations will be added to your debt" he spoke briskly

"Do you really think I care?" Haruhi asked bitterly. "I know you know that she's a girl" Kyouya nodded and waited for her to continue "I've known Rei my entire life, she was there for me when my mother died, when I was picked on at school, she was always there for me…and now she's laying her practically lifeless on what could be her deathbed!!!" Haruhi yelled her tears began to fall again. Kyouya looked at her with sympathy. He sat down next to her and wrapped his arms around her shaking frame. She turned in his arms and cried on his chest. Kyouya sat there not really knowing what to do, but it seemed like he was doing the right thing. Slowly her cries began to die down into hiccups. Kyouya rubbed her back as she drifted into unconsciousness. Kyouya stared down at her.

'I guess that she was exhausted' he thought picking her up and carrying her out of the hospital 'I'll bring her back when she wakes up' I thought to himself, carefully placing her into his limo, before signaling to the driver to drive off.
