It was the next morning and Kaoru was downstairs in the kitchen drinking hot chocolate.

Mei walked into the kitchen.

"Hey." She said. "How was the date with the cop?"

Kaoru looked at her. "How do you know about that?"

Mei smiled. "Hikaru told me."

Kaoru growled. "Hikaru."

"Hey you told everybody about Haruhi rejecting him in high school."

Kaoru sighed. "I guess you're right."

Mei smiled again. "Anyway, did she frisk you? Did she find anything?"

"It was awful." Kaoru said.

Mei expression fell. "I'm sorry, sweetheart. I thought that was solid."

Kaoru looked into his cup and sighed. "No, she was great. Possibly better than great. And she likes me. Oh God."

Mei started making some coffee. "Well, why don't you stick around and see what happens?"

Kaoru looked at her. "Because I live about an hour away without traffic, and I don't feel like driving all that way. I'm just going home to nothing, leaving this adorable girl here."

Mei sighed. "Yuzure has me so busy with Tamaki's tux that I'm rethinking my career choice."

Kaoru chuckled. "Out of the two of us, who do you think is more pathetic?"

I walked into the kitchen. "I need Band-Aids." I sat down next to them. "We were scrapbooking last night and I got all these papercuts somehow. Tamaki made me hold the book and I think he purposely missed the page and cut me."

"We have a winner." Kaoru said.

Kyouya walked in and sighed. "Good morning everyone. I hope your morning is better then mine."

I looked over at Kyouya. "That's very doubtful."

Kyouya just smirked. "Oh yah, I forgot about scrapbooking last night. I guess my morning is better than someone's."

I just gave him a look.

Yuzure walked in with a vase of roses. "Boys, breakfast is on the patio, not the kitchen."

Kaoru looked at Yuzure. "Is Tamaki out there?"

Yuzure put the flowers on the counter and fixed them up. "No. Our groom-to-be is too tired this morning."

I looked at him. "I heard him groaning. Is he ok?"

Kyouya looked at us.

"Well, these things happen." Yuzure said.

He then grabbed the vase of flowers and left the kitchen.

Kaoru smirked. "Too much fun scrapbooking last night I guess."

"Yah." I sighed

"Or somebody and his lover were up late last night doing some canoodling amorously." Kyouya said while looking at a can.

We all looked at him confused. Then Kaoru and I looked at Mei.

"Um, Haruhi was with me and the rest of the bridesmaids last night." Mei said.

We all looked back at Kyouya.

"So she couldn't have been canoodling amorously with him." I said.

Kyouya looked up at us shocked. Just noticing his slip up. He gulped.


We were in the attic. Kyouya was sitting in a chair while Mei and Kaoru were standing around him.

Kaoru was walking around him. "Kyouya, you need to tell the truth."

Kyouya looked at him. "I refused to speak without a lawyer present."

"It'll be much easier on you if just talk."

I brought in a tray of food and a bag. "Anything?"

Kaoru sighed. "No."

I put the tray on a table and handed Kaoru the bag.

Kaoru smirked. "Oh, what is this?" He went through the bag and gasped. "Ooh." He pulled out some of Kyouya's electronics.

Kyouya's eyes widened.

"Oh my." Kaoru said.

"Those are mine. Where did you find them?" Kyouya asked.

"From your room." I said. "Are those the new exclusive ones that only certain people get?"

"I think so." Kaoru said.

"And they're new, the plastic was still on it." Mei said.

"It would be a shame if anything happened to them." I said.

Kyouya glared. "Don't you dare."

I glared back at him. "Try me."

Kaoru picked one of the laptops up. "What do you got there Hikaru?"

I motioned my hand towards the tray of food. "You know, just a few things that spill on expensive electronics." I picked up one of the jars. "Like marinara sauce."

I hovered it over the laptop as Kaoru was holding it in front of Kyouya.

"The company has another of the same laptop on hold for me." Kyouya said.

We sighed. I put the marinara sauce away back on the tray and Kaoru put down Kyouya's laptop and picked up his phone.

I picked up another jar. "Soy sauce, dump the phone in it."

"I'm getting a new phone once the wedding is over, I already transported everything over." Kyouya said.

I growled and put the soy sauce back down. Kaoru put the phone down and grabbed another laptop.

I grabbed another jar. "Oh, well, look what I have here." I smirked. "Fruit preserves, and I think that's..." I sniffed the jar. My smirk grew wider. "Yah, that's blueberry."

I places it over the laptop. "And isn't this the one of a kind laptop your father got you?"

Kyouya glared at me. "You wouldn't."

I gave him a serious look, then looked back at the jar. I started to tip it forward. Everyone's eyes followed the sauce as I kept tipping it.

Kyouya was started to get nervous.

Then some of the sauce poured down. Kyouya panicked and he caught the sauce with his hand. I lifted the jar.

"He's sleeping with Eclair, he's having an affair." Kyouya bursted out.

"Ok, but what about the records stating that he was calling Haruhi and not Eclair?" Kaoru asked. "We saw his phone records."

"He just switched Haruhi's and Eclair's numbers in his phone so no one would find out. I found out by accidentally snooping through his phone."

Mei gave him a look. "Accidentally?"

Kyouya sighed. "Ok, purposely snooping through his phone."

Mei, Kaoru, and I looked at each other.

"Please don't tell him I said anything, I would never hear the end of it." Kyouya said pinching the bridge of his nose.

Kaoru walked up to Kyouya and handed him his laptop and the bag of electronics. "It's ok Kyouya. It's over."

"Can I go now?" Kyouya asked.

"Sure." Mei said.

Kyouya got up and left the room.

"I can't believe it." I said, I clenched my fists. "Tamaki lied about being in love with Haruhi and forced her to marry him anyway." I growled. "That fu...That…"

"Say it." Kaoru said.

"Yah, it'll make you feel good." Mei smiled.

"No, I can't. I just can't….That fucking bastard!" I yelled as I grabbed a chair and threw it across the attic.

Kaoru and Mei laughed.

"Careful tough guy. Don't hurt yourself." Mei said.

I shook my hands. "Sorry, I'm just really angry right now."

"Ok, well, you know what? This changes everything." Kaoru said.

"Sure does. We gotta tell Haruhi." Mei said.

"Yah, we have to. When?" I asked.

Kaoru walked to the window and moved the curtain. He looked down at Tamaki and Haruhi.

"How about now?"

Mei and I looked at him.

"He's here." Kaoru said.

We all smiled. Kaoru ran over to Mei.

"We'll distract Tamaki, and you go over and tell Haruhi."

They both grabbed each one of my arms and started pulling me towards the door.

"Me tell her? I don't think I can." I said.

"After what he did to you?:" Mei said. "After what he did to us?"

"Yah, you're right. I'll tell her, I have to." I said.

I walked up to the door. "Ok. Here goes. I'm taking my life back." I smiled. "Wish me luck."

I then left the attic.
