The summer was going by way to fast and I knew it wouldn't be long before the host club split up for good. Mori and Hunny were already leaving for university and would be going to separate colleges.
Mean while Hikaru, Kaoru, and Haruhi would be moving up a grade becoming eleventh grade juniors in high school; and Tamaki, Kyoya, and I would soon be twelfth grade seniors.
Remembering all this had upset me and I became a little depressed. I had been staying to my own room the last two days, and I had barely eaten anything even though Kyoya had tried to bring me lunch.
Every one had been failing to get me to eat because I had locked the door to the room to better ensure my privacy. Kyoya had even offered me chocolates from France and imported American hot chocolate knowing chocolate was my favorite.
I ignored his requests and remained curled up in the over sized bed until he left. I got out of the bed and changed into my bathing suit before I tied a wrap around my waste and slipped a pair of sandals from my bag.
Silently slipping down the hall, I was careful to avoid the rest of the host club. I quietly tiptoed down the hall, through the dinning room, and through the kitchen.
Slipping out the back door in the kitchen used by the maids I made my way to the beach. I found a quiet little cove on the beach where I curled up in the sun, closed my eyes and resting in the warm sand.
I had been on the beach for almost an hour and even did a little swimming, only to end up back on the beach again as the water slid off my body. I closed my eyes pulling my twisted wet hair back out of the way as I lay back down again.
I had been so relaxed by the warm sand I hadn't realized the presence of any one else on the beach until a shadow was cast over me, and I felt some one pressed against my body.
I bolted up right screaming, hitting the person and connecting with their chest, knocking them back as I opened my eyes. It took a few moments for my eyes to adjust, I jumped up quickly running over realizing who it was.
"I am so so sorry Kyo-kun. I didn't realize it was you. I'm sorry," I whimpered out. I dropped to Kyoya's side leaning over him looking down at him, he lay back in the sand breathing a little harder now.
"It's ok. I scared you. I should have warned you I was here," Kyoya choked out a little as he gasped for air again. I choked down a sob, closing my eyes. I felt horrible that I had hurt Kyoya.
Before I could start sobbing, Kyoya had wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me down onto him.
"It's alright Amaya. Don't worry about it. I am alright, I'm not hurt. It was only an accident so it's ok," He said sounding normal again. He pulled me against his body tightly; but I tried to push myself up, afraid I would hurt him.
Kyoya gave a soft smile as he held me to him and reached up cupping my cheek and caressing it lovingly.
"Your so beautiful even when your upset. But I worry about you Amaya. You haven't been eating right for two days now. You have even avoided your cousins. That's not normal for you. Please smile Amaya. I love when you smile," Kyoya said.
He pulled me into a deep passionate kiss letting his tongue slide over my lower lip. Then he pulled away and looked up at me again. I opened my eyes lightly and looked down into his eyes.
"Please Amaya," Kyoya said in a pleading tone. Pulling me down into another deep kiss, letting it linger a little longer this time. He gently bit my lower lip this time trying to get me to smile.
I could feel his teeth graze lightly over my lip and I shuddered at the feeling. Kyoya let out a soft laugh feeling me shudder, he lightly grazed his teeth over my lower lip again.
I shuddered again, this time a soft smile escaped my lips. Kyoya laughed a little as he released me and I smiled pushing myself up off him. Sitting up strait now letting him set up as well he looked to me.
"I understand your upset. And I can understand why your so depressed Amaya, but it is natural to be sad when your friends leave," Kyoya said. Kyoya had a better understanding of me then I had thought.
"Just remember that even though they are leaving for college at the end of this summer and we will leave next summer to college that doesn't mean that we all wont want to be friends any more," Kyoya said softly.
"I think it will only further strengthen all of our relationships as friends. We all will be friends no matter how it all turns out. That will never change," Kyoya's voice was soft and caring.
"If there is one thing you have taught me since I met you, it is that when you choose the right friends those friends will last your whole life time," Kyoya said meeting my eyes.
"We are all friends for life because of you. Haruhi started the change and brought us all together. She brought the twins out of their own little world but you.. Amaya you are the one who changed us all," Kyoya's words were sinking in now.
"Because of you we will all be friends for life, no matter what," Kyoya said as he took my hand gently. I took a deep breath listening to what Kyoya said. As it sunk in I felt the tears begin to slide down my cheeks.
Before I could stop myself I wrapped my arms tightly around Kyoya, and buried my face into the hallow of his neck as I started crying.
"Thank you Kyo-kun. Thank you so much," I cried as I held him tightly. Kyoya just nodded and kissed the top of my head as he held me to him.
When I managed to stop crying Kyoya took my chin with his hand ever so gently, pulling my chin up a little so that I was looking up to him.
"Amaya I want you to know that no matter what, you can always come to me. I don't want you to think that just because your upset about something or depressed it will never matter," Kyoya nearly whispered.
"I don't want you to ever think you can't trust me, or can't come to me," Kyoya said.
"You will always be able to come to me no matter what. Your my love. What I really came down here for was to give you this," Kyoya said with a slight laugh.
"I have been trying to see you the last two days but you have been hid away. It is your birthday today, remember?" Kyoya asked with a soft loving smile.
He held out a beautiful cherry colored wooden box. I was a little surprised that any one had even remembered my birthday. I had been trying to avoid my birthday, but Kyoya clearly had other plans for it.
I took a deep breath and opened the box to find a beautiful heart shaped diamond pendent necklace that had a red ruby rose twisted around the heart and ended in the center.
I looked at the necklace surprised. As I reached for it I noticed it also had a beautiful white gold and diamond tennis bracelet with it. I was left without words at first until I managed to catch my breath, turning to Kyoya.
"It's so beautiful Kyo-kun. You didn't have to. Thank you," I said hugging him tightly, clutching the box to my chest.
"Haha! found them!" I heard Hikaru laughing as he ran up.
"Hey, hey, can't monopolize the birthday girl. Not on her birthday," Hikaru said being his usual smart cocky self.
"Happy birthday Ammy-chan!" Hunny yelled excitedly, jumping down from the rocks above and landed with a tiny soft thud in the sand next to me.
I just smiled a little, unable to hide the happiness. Every one had come to find me, it was just like Kyoya had promised me. No matter what, we were all friends for life. I quickly curled up into Kyoya's lap not wanting to be moved.
Haruhi and Tamaki started laughing, running towards us. When they got to us I was clinging to Kyoya, yelling at Hikaru to stay away from me. As Kaoru walked up I was yelling at Hikaru in German, this made Kaoru laugh.
I had decided to take a few foreign language Classes. I thought that when I did start a business it would be good if I could speak fluently in at least two or three other languages.
Kyoya had been helping me with my German, which had been interesting and now I was using it fluently against Hikaru. Every one finally stopped laughing. I started calming down and shoved Hikaru away from me again.
"Don't touch me you weird pervert!" I yelled. I was clutching Kyoya's shirt tightly making everyone fall into another laughing fit.
"Oh come off it. I would never touch you. Not even with a ten foot pole," Hikaru said bursting into laughter. I heard some one calling my name from up the beach.
I looked up to see Kyoya's sister Fuyumi and his oldest brother Akito walking towards us. I was a little shocked to see this sight since I knew Kyoya's other older brother, Yuuichi, didn't like me very much.
I got up quickly from Kyoya's lap helping him up. Kyoya quickly took his shirt off, pushing it into my hands asking me to put in on very quietly so only I heard.
I didn't ask why I just slipped it on quickly and giggled quietly, seeing it was a little long on me. Between his shirt and my skirt wrap that I wore over my bathing suit bottom I looked fully dress as Fuyumi and Akito got closer.
That was when I noticed the hungry look in Akito's eyes as he looked over me. It now made sense why Kyoya had asked me to put his shirt on.
While he trusted the host club to be gentlemen. The host club consisting of newly graduated Morinozuka Takashi who was my cousin, and newly graduated Haninozuka Mitsukuni who was also my cousin.
It also consisted of soon to be senior, Suoh Tamaki; soon to be juniors, Hitachiin Hikaru and Kaoru. And Kyoya himself, who was soon to be a senior as well. How ever was painstakingly obvious and clear that he didn't trust his brother Akito.
I knew all the boys well enough. I knew that Tamaki was far to respectful to girls, not to mention way to deeply in love with Haruhi to even think about doing anything stupid.
I also knew, that while Hikaru liked to annoy me and make me mad, he still cared to much for his brother and for me as a friend to hurt me.
Kaoru while, in love with me knew I was happy with Kyoya and held the utmost respect for me. While Mori and Hunny as my cousins held them all to it.
I remembered the day when Hikaru made the mistake of trying to change me himself. Mori had nearly killed him, if not for my begging him not to. Hikaru had forgotten I was a girl and quickly called Haruhi to help me change resolving the issue.
But the thing I knew most of all in my heart, was that, while Kyoya some times got a little passionate with me he had never once got carried away.
He always kept in mind that I was a young lady and treated me as such. I knew my father didn't like him, but I knew that Kyoya still treated me with the utmost respect.
Kyoya was always treating me as a princess, making sure that I was well cared for. Kyoya always made sure I was completely covered even if I was swimming, if he thought it was a danger to me. He was always watching out for me.
"Akito, I would appreciate you not look at Amaya like a hungry wolf. She is a young lady, not some toy for you to undress with your eyes," It was a total shock to me, but the one to have spoken out was Tamaki.
Kyoya looked over to Tamaki also in near shock now as Tamaki stepped in front of me blocking me from view of Akito. Akito gave a nod and apologized as he turned his gaze to Kyoya now.
"Father mentioned it was young Amaya's birthday. We thought she might like to have a party. So we took the liberty of calling a few people and setting up a party," Akito said. I could tell he was faking his smile now.
"Of course it will only be the eight of you, Fuyumi, Yuuichi, Father, Amaya's father, myself, and a few of our highest priority clients," Akito continued.
"Clients who would love to meet the young, talented girl who stole you away from the Ootori family," Akito said a little more serious. It seemed like Kyoya and Akito were having a glaring contest now as Akito spoke of clients meeting me.
I peeked around Tamaki for a moment looking to Fuyumi. She was very beautiful and I had grown to respect her, even though Mr Ootori and his two older sons scared me.
"I don't mind at all as long as I can have chocolate cake, dancing, and you stay a minimum of five feet away from me. You scare me just like your brother and dad," I said glaring at Akito.
Fuyumi giggled a little, and Kyoya just laughed before quieting down with a smile. I knew Kyoya was laughing at my remark and I was glad he found it funny.
"You can have all the chocolate cake you want Amaya. That shouldn't be a problem, but why dancing?" Akito asked looking confused. I pushed Tamaki aside glaring at Akito more, the glare was stronger and colder this time.
"Is there a problem with some one who enjoys dancing? My father and mother loved to dance when they were my age. They danced all the time, even in their older age," I argued annoyed by Akito's question.
"They danced in the kitchen every night together. I danced with my father every night while he made dinner when I was a child. If there is a problem with dancing then you, Akito, will have a problem," I grumbled standing up to Akito.
It was rather funny, while I was scared of Yoshio and his two older sons Akito and Yuuichi, I never let them push me around. If anything I did the pushing around, showing I was no little girl to be toyed with.
After a few minutes Akito nodded and disappeared back up towards the summer villa. It was easy to tell Akito was not very happy but I didn't care now.
"Wow you are amazing Amaya. You stood up to him just like you did Yuuichi," Kaoru said softly. I nodded a little and looked to Fuyumi with a soft friendly smile, she returned the smile.
"You may be a commoner Amaya, but I must admit you are fascinating. You know how to handle a man, even if you are scared of them," Fuyumi said sounding a little in awe of my actions.
"You might just do Kyoya more good then he realizes. I hope you will enjoy the party," Fuyumi said as she hugged me and turned leaving as well.
I smiled faintly to Kyoya who just pulled me to him tightly. I giggled a little as he pulled me to him, pressing his body tightly to mine and kissing me deeply.
"I can't help but get excited and kiss you right now Amaya. You have made me so happy," Kyoya said happily.
"Oh god your amazing. As I said, I think I have you figured out and you surprise me again," Kyoya said kissing me again before turning and looking to the group.
"Alright lets go get ready. I know this isn't the type of party we are used to but we will do it for Amaya," Kyoya said with a smile. Kyoya wrapped his arm around my waist and started walking with me back towards the villa now.
After a few hours, I was showered and dressed for the party, thanks to the help of Fuyumi of course. Hikaru had chosen to help pick out the dress for Haruhi and one of the maids helped Haruhi get ready while Fuyumi helped me.
"You really are very pretty Amaya. Please tell me, does Kyoya treat you well? I worry about him sometimes," Fuyumi asked as she tied the back of my dress for me. I nodded politely and looked to her in the mirror.
"Of course he does. He's always watching out for me. If I don't eat regularly he'll bring me lunch," I said with a slight nod.
"There have been times I got to busy with my paintings, or club activities and forgot all about lunch. When I did he always brought me lunch," I said laughing a little remembering all the times I had been tied up and couldn't leave to get lunch.
"He's always making sure I am safe and always looking out for me. He even made it his personal mission to make sure I get home safely every day after school," I said with another nod.
"It was Kyoya who made sure I was covered earlier so that Akito couldn't see me in my bathing suit," I laughed a little, thinking about what Kyoya had done. It was not jealousy but instead love that made him take care of me like he did.
"I understand why he worries about me so much. I am still a young woman no matter how I look at it and it's easy for me to be hurt or taken advantage of. So I guess I can't, no, I wouldn't ever argue with him," I said with a soft smile.
Fuyumi finished tying the back of my dress. Turning I looked to her a little surprised but grateful she was so nice.
"Thank you Fuyumi. For be so nice. It appears that right now you are the only one of Kyoya's siblings that likes me. Yuuichi thinks of me as filthy commoner and Akito," I paused, shuddering a little, remembering the look he had earlier.
"Akito just looks at me like he is some ravenous, hungry wolf. But you have been polite and kind since meeting me. Thank you," I said, slipping on the necklace and bracelet that Kyoya had given me.
It wasn't long after Fuyumi left my room when there was a knock on my door. I tilted my head a little confused, walking over I opened the door only to find Akito of all people. I stepped back quickly away from him, not trusting him.
"Are you ready Miss Nagashima?" Akito asked with a cold, calculating smirk. I shuddered a little and shook my head.
"In a moment. I just need one more thing," I said. I turned away and slipped into the bathroom that was in my room. I hated Akito because of the way he looked at me.
I flipped open the little container on the counter Carefully slipping my contacts in before looking up to the mirror and smiling a little.
I couldn't believe how I looked. It appeared that Fuyumi could work a miracle with me. All she had needed was a formal gown, a little hair product, a curling iron, and a tiny bit of make up.
I hated the idea of my violet colored eyes though, no matter how I looked. This was why I wore colored contacts.
The violet of course still came through, but only a little. This made my eyes the deep bluish violet color that I had grown to like more and more. As I turned Akito stood in the door way making me jump a little. I looked down avoiding his eyes.
"You are not welcome in my room. I understand this is your family's villa but I am staying in this room and would appreciate you not entering it while I am staying here," I said a little colder.
Akito snatched my wrist and pulled me out of the bathroom and then spun me to him. I knew that being alone with Akito was dangerous and now I fully understood why Kyoya was always so worried about me.
Kyoya has seen first hand just how filthy and dangerous some men could be. Now it made sense. Kyoya had seen how Akito was and only wanted to protect me from guys like Akito.
"You really are beautiful. Kyoya doesn't understand that. But I do Miss Nagashima. Some one as beautiful as you deserves so much better then Kyoya has offered you," Akito said in a lulling tone. It sounded like he was mimicking Tamaki's tone.
"He still holds back. Why is that? Oh that's right I forgot, he loves Fujioka Haruhi. He could never give you his heart which he has already given to her. He will never give you what you deserve like I can," Akito said leaning in to kiss me.
Hearing this struck a cord with me. As the tears threaten to spill over I took a deep breath and with one swift movement I slammed my hand into Akito's chest.
I knocked him back away from me and ran out of my room and down the hall where I ran into Mori. Mori seemed a little surprised and confused for a brief moment.
"Oh Amaya. I was just coming up to see if you were ready. Your father is waiting to see you," Mori stopped a moment seeing the pained look in my eyes and tilted his head.
"Amaya are you alright?" He asked sounding a little worried. I nodded faintly lying to Mori. I did not wanting to ruin every one else's night so I lied. Mori looked at me a moment. Before I realized it he scooped me up into a tight hug.
"Amaya my cousin please know you can always tell me when something is bothering you. We are family and family must stick together and protect each other. You taught me that," Mori said.
That was when Akito came walking down the hall from my room. Akito had a faint smirk as he looked to me ignoring Mori at first.
"Akito. I asked that you refrain from bothering my cousin any longer. I ask that you leave her alone and stay away from her from now on," Mori said. Mori spoke in an oddly cold voice that I had never heard him use before.
Mori pulled me behind him a little, like a protective older brother. Akito just growled in annoyance and walked away disappearing down the stairs.
"Amaya please stay away from him. I don't trust him with you. I am afraid he might do something to hurt you little cousin. Now if you are ready I will escort you down to the party," Mori said.
My cousin took my arm politely he walked with me down to the party. It felt like he was being a body guard against the Ootori family, although I knew that was not the case.
Fuyumi had put me in a beautiful navy blue formal gown that cut down just to my chest line without showing any cleavage. Yet it clung to my body just enough to be generous to my curves and show the fit and delicate frame I had.
The black high heeled open toed shoes had three circles of diamond that went up the center of my foot from my toes to the middle of my foot.
Fuyumi had pulled my hair half way up and curled it, clipping it up with only a beautiful white tropical flower clip.
She dusted a faint shade of eggplant and bronze eye shadow on to highlight my eyes, giving me an elegant and womanly formal look for the party.
When I got downstairs to where the party was being held I noticed they had all of my paintings hanging along the walls. Even True Loves Tango had been put up.
Kyoya smiled faintly as my eyes fell to the painting. I turned away from Kyoya and ran over to my father hugging him quickly. I wanted to avoid Kyoya as much as I could. It was hard on me believing that he loved Haruhi now.
"Oh, Amaya, baby girl. Why didn't you tell me this is what you have been doing with that boy all this time. Kyoya explained to me what happened" My father said sounding proud of me and the work I had done.
"Kyoya told me that he had helped you to set up clients for your paintings. This is amazing Amaya. I would have never known you were so talented if not for that boy," My father said smiling happily.
"That boy must truly care for you and love you to do something as wondrous as this," My father said hugging me tightly. I just nodded listening to him now that he seemed so much happier.
"It was you wasn't is baby girl? It was you that paid off all those old debts and got your mother better care wasn't it? Why didn't I see it before," My father continued on.
"The signature. Maya was you wasn't it. The painting of your mother and I, Amaya it's so beautiful. Your mother told me about. This is the first time I have gotten to see it," My father said unable to take his eyes off the painting.
"Mr Ootori tells me Kyoya keeps it in his room and refuses to allow any one to buy it. It truly is beautiful," My father said looking down to me. It was clear to me now, he was proud of me. I nodded faintly and looked back to the painting.
"I wanted to help you. I didn't want you to bare it all on your own. Kyoya originally came to me with an offer," I paused remembering every thing that I had been through. I fought back the pain from all the memories of Kyoya so close to me.
"The offer was he would set up my clients and the only thing he wanted of it was recognition for setting up the sales. He just wanted to get on better terms with his father," I said biting back the pain in my voice to keep my father happy now.
"Now he does all the sales for me without even wanting that. He has been an amazing gentleman to help me with it all," I said giving my father a soft smile.
"I have even done a painting for the headmaster of Ouran. The head master loved the painting. From what Tamaki senpai told me has put it up in his office," I said looking up to my father.
"It has all been like a dream. Just a fairy tale like the one you told me when I was little. The one where the prince came to rescue the princess, but daddy I don't want to be that princess," I said a little shakily. I was beginning to lose my resolve.
"I want to be different. I want to be a strong princess, a princess who does everything on her own. A princess who fights on her own without the prince saving her. A princess who saves herself," I said a little colder then I meant to.
I had started crying a little into my fathers shoulder. I lost all resolve that I had built. I had been trying to keep my resolve and remain strong and firm so my father wouldn't have to know my pain. I just wanted him to remain happy.
My father just pat my back gently and twirled me around suddenly to dance with him. I smiled softly, wiping the tears away quickly, then taking my fathers hand again letting him dance with me.
After dancing with my father for quite some time, several of the very important clients of the Ootori family asked me to dance. I happily agreed knowing it was the polite thing to do.
It appeared that my dancing was entertaining the clients. Th clients were taking a bigger interest in me then they did the Ootori family now as I danced with another client of the Ootori family.
"Your daughter truly is talented Mr Nagashima. Her paintings are beautiful and very professional. She is a beautiful dancer too. She has become quite popular since declining my offer," Mr Ootori said.
My father looked at Mr Ootori a little confused now. My father knew nothing of the offer Mr Ootori had made. I had not told him because I had wanted to handle it myself and not worry my father any more then he was worried for my mother.
"Offer?" My father questioned. My father looked to Mr Ootori a little oddly now wondering what this man was thinking.
"Oh my. Amaya did not tell you? I made her an offer. If she left Ouran for good I would arrange her marriage to a young man of high standings," Mr Ootori began explaining.
"She would have been married to a very powerful young man and you and her mother would be well taken care of. How ever she declined. It's to bad she declined," Mr Ootori said looking to me a moment but I hadn't noticed.
"I wanted her to work for my company. I intended to marry her to my eldest son Akito, or to my youngest son Kyoya if she took the deal," Mr Ootori said indifferently. It was clear he took no offense to my decline of his offer.
"How ever as I said she declined. Something about her happiness. She said she knew you and her mother would never want her to do it," Mr Ootori continued speaking to my father.
"She said no matter how much she wanted to help the two she could not do it. She said that you and her mother would want her to do what made her happy," Mr Ootori said with a soft nod.
"To be honest Mr Nagashima I am very glad she declined. It appears that she is still a great asset to my family's business even without my hand in the matter. She has many talents," Mr Ootori said with a smile watching my father now.
"Mr Nagashima I want you to know that I still intend her to marry my son Kyoya. Of course with your permission and the permission of her mother first. How ever only if she wishes it," Mr Ootori explained.
"I respect her choice to decline my offer. That's why I'd prefer to let her make the choice. I'd still like the permission of you and your wife though should she choose to marry Kyoya ," Mr Ootori said looking to me with nothing but respect now.
"Kyoya had told me they intend to wait till after their graduation before they even think about discussing thinking about marriage," Mr Ootori said with a short laugh.
"Your daughter is an amazing child Mr Nagashima and I would not want to see such talent go to waste," Mr Ootori said with the same calculating smile as always.
I seen my father look over to me where I was dancing with Tamaki's father, who to my surprise had also was always a surprise when head master Yuzuru Suoh appeared out of no where.
"You are a wonderful young woman Miss Nagashima. I am glad Kyoya has found you. He has been such a great friend to Tamaki," Mr Yuzuru said happily.
"I didn't think he would ever find a young lady to love until now. It is nice to see him so happy. I just hope that you will use your talents to the fullest Miss Nagashima," Mr Suoh said letting some one else cut in now.
"Mr Ootori. I appreciate all your son has done for my baby girl, but I would not want her married into your family. You act as though she is nothing but an object to be used to bring you more money," My father said strongly.
Like me, my father chose to take a stand. Only now he chose to stand up for his family, for his daughter, for his only child. My father clearly wanted only the best for me and if I would not be happy he would fight it so I would be happy.
"I will not see my daughter portrayed in such a hideous way. Not when she is a bright, smart, caring girl who could start a business of her own. I know that she would treat every one much better then you do," My father said coldly.
"You can't even treat your own children with the love they deserve and my daughter deserves much better then that," My father said in a cold tone. It wasn't hard to tell My father felt bad for how Kyoya was treated by his father.
"Honestly. I how ever will not stop her if she chooses to marry Kyoya of her own free will. I see the love in her eyes that she holds for young Kyoya," My father continued standing his ground against Mr Ootori.
"It is the same look of love that I see in her mothers eyes every day for me. He makes her happy and that is all I can ask for, for my baby girl," My father said. My father turned leaving a dumbfounded Mr Ootori standing there.
I had been requested by and elder lady, who apparently was very important to show off my skills in dancing by dancing the tango. I froze at first unsure of what to say. It was a little hard to think clearly now but I nodded faintly.
"I..Um.. of course ma'am," I said with a polite bow, but when she shoved me into Tamaki I froze.
"I um.. Tamaki senpai," I stammered out looking confused.
"My grandmother. Please forgive her," Tamaki whisper quickly to me. I just nodded a little.
"Um Tamaki, I am not sure you can do this dance, but I have an idea. I need music. You can play the Piano for me please.. Please please please..." I begged.
Tamaki nodded understanding my plea, and went to the grand piano that Mr Ootori had in the room. Tamaki seemed happy that I had preferred him to play the piano for my dance instead of have him dance with me.
"Thank you Tamaki senpai," I said with a polite bow. He started playing slowly at first as though to make sure he was able to play, and that the piano was in tune.
I took a deep breath hating what I was about to do. I hated Kyoya right now after hearing he loved Haruhi, but I knew he was the best choice for a dance partner.
When it came to the tango, Kyoya had experience dancing with me so he would be best for this dance. Not only that but Kyoya would be able to keep up with me while dancing, almost like we read each others minds while dancing together.
"Kyoya would you assist me please?" I said. My voice was a little colder and more harsher then I had meant it to be as I shot a cold look to Kyoya.
Kyoya nodded and walked forward taking my hand gently into his. I nodded to Tamaki and he started playing for me.
I turned away and Kyoya pulled me back to him. I turned away again, this time he pulled me to him and wrapped his arm around my waist and step towards me.
"Why are you so unhappy? This isn't like you Amaya," Kyoya whispered so that no one realized he was talking to me. I looked at him a little hurt as he pulled me against his body tightly.
"Why am I unhappy. This isn't like me. It's your fault. Why didn't you tell me you were in love with Haruhi? It could have saved me a lot of pain and you a lot of wasted time with me," I grumbled back in a soft whisper, snapping at him.
I leaned forward pushing him back a little. Even when I was upset and angry I was still able to dance perfectly. This detail only annoyed me a little more.
"What are you talking about Amaya?" Kyoya asked. He spun me out, then back into him. Catching me with my back pressed tightly against the front of his body, he stepped forward with me a little before stepping back with me again.
"You idiot. You love Haruhi. I should have know. Let me guess, the only reason you picked me is because Tamaki loves Haruhi and she loves him, so she would never choose you," I snapped at Kyoya in a whisper.
Kyoya looked a little shocked tipping me back and I wrapped my body tightly to his. The music ended, I was breathing a little harder then usual. Once everyone started clapping happily I pulled away from Kyoya.
"I was stupid for trusting a rich little snobby, calculating brat like you. Next time you decide you want to play with a girls emotions and heart because Haruhi doesn't love you be careful. Pay close attention to who she is!" I yelled at him.
I hit him hard with only the palm of my hand, but I hit him with enough force that I knocked him back into the wall, and knocked the wind out of him.
I turned without warning and ran out of the room leaving everyone completely confused now. I had ran out of the villa, into the rain hopping a little on one foot trying to slip the high heels off heading for the stairs.
After struggling for a moment I dropped the high heels at the top of the stairs, running down to the beach. I ran down the beach, running over the sand nearly stumbling a few times.
A loud crash echoed over head as thunder rolled through the sky above me. The sky just seemed to open up and pour rain down on me even harder, as a bolt of lightning flashed across the sky.
"Stupid Jerk," I sobbed out as I finally stumbled and fell to my knees in the sand. I couldn't believe I had fell for Kyoya so easily. I couldn't believe I had fell for the one person who could never have feelings for another human being in his life.
