Thanks and Enjoy~

'Fact: The sun is about ten thousand degrees Fahrenheit and could burn me alive in just seconds.

Opinion: Yet the room had felt almost just as hot and maybe ever more… or was that simply because her hand had brushed mine?

Fact: There are hundred billion stars in the sky and possibly millions more hiding.

Opinion: But her smile out shines all of them.

Fact: The earth spins a thousand miles per hour and humanity feels still.

Opinion: Yet every time she passed a window on the way to the library, the sun would strike her sepia brown skin. The light would glaze her dark freckles upon her cheekbones and across her soft, wide nose that was centered so masterfully on her face and just one glance over made the room suddenly feel like it was spinning, leaving me to see hearts like a love struck fool.

Fact: Gabriella Hemming is beautiful and in more ways than just meets the eye.

Fact: Gabriella Hemming is also in an arranged marriage with Daniel Phillips. A young man who's a third year student in some fancy academy in Europe and whose father owns a high end marketing company.

Fact: She simply deserves better then a boy who lives a thousand miles away.'

"Ortori." She catches him just as he closing the host club door. Her voice ranges out in a soft echo through the empty hall and slows her pace while she approaches him. His hand drops from the knob as his gaze lifts and turns to face hers. She stares at him with a perplex yet gentle glaze as to why he was leaving the host club room, after all today one of the only days of the

week that held no meeting.

A small smile dominates his lips as he returns the greeting, yet it fails to reach his eyes. "Miss, Kobayashi." He adjusted the strap of his school bag, tightening just a smidge. "Can I help you?"

His tone almost sounds annoyed. She finds herself stiffening, her brows furrow as she keeps eye contact. "Yes?" Her teeth clench together gently and she gives a small shrug.

Kyoya stares down her, pushing up his glasses before taking steps pass her and heading down the hall. "Such as?" He glances back at her and she gets signal to follow. Before she does, her eyes wander over him. She watches this fingers curl around the cuff of his sleeve and tug at it before moving upward to scratch at the back of his neck. She dips her head in a nod and hurries to his side to keep up with his long and slender legs.

"You… uh… kay?" She mumbles softly and Kyoya peers down at her shortly with confusion. "Are you okay?" She corrects her speech with a clear of her throat. "Cause if you aren't I can just leave. I don't want to intrude or cause add any more trouble to your plate. Haruhi tells me that you work really hard as a student and for the host club, so that must be hard to balance. Then again mostly told me you work with finances and that you're really good with them." She messed with the long sleeve of her dark green jacket, finding use for then baggy ends it provided her. "I, myself. I suck at numbers. I don't even know how I manage to do well in math. Half of the time when I watching the lecture I feel like I'm having a stroke. Like how do they do it so fast? It just-"
"Alison." Kyoya cut her off gently yet voice stern over the sound of their foot steps. "You're rambling." She felt a squeeze on her arm and realize he had grabbed her to slowly pull her to a stop. "Also wearing oversized clothes isn't really professional." He stated, looking down at her figure. She must have been at least a head and half shorter than him.

Her lips formed into a small pout and stepped back, smoothly removing his hand from the sleeve of her jacket in one quick, graceful movement. "Well Otori, cutting people off is unprofessional, especially a young lady. I would have thought you had better manners." She retorted back at him, small smirk lacing her expression.

Kyoya couldn't help but smile softly. "You think you're so quick witted don't you?" He slowly began moving.

"Alas I admit it." She dipped her head in a nod before meeting eyes with him and syncing her steps with his. "It'll probably be the end of me." She chuckled with a joking manner, the air feeling playful between the two of them yet she would change that. "However, do to your previous body language. Playing with your sleeve, fixing the strap of your bag, pushing up your glasses and how you started to walk away at such pace… It's clear you're upset about something." She revealed scanning him over once more while they walked side by side. Silence formed between them besides the clicking of their footsteps and the muffled voices of students down other halls. Alison chewed on her lip with regret before she met eyes with him accidently. "Penny for your thoughts…?"

It was the glasses framed student turn to roll his eyes. "Aren't you just observant."

Alison shrugged. "I like the idea of profiling." She commented.

Kyoya simply nodded while he walked, keeping his eyes facing forward. "Is that something you're looking into to do?"

The raven hair girl merely laughed. "To be honest I don't have a clue what I wanna do with my life. Another reason why I was against coming here… Haruhi wants to be a lawyer, so she had a reason. I don't have one." She glanced up to the side of his face, his eyes avoiding her, it was clear he wasn't going to share his reason for his upset behaviors to her.

She looked back down the long hall way as the quiet grew between them once again. "What did you need of me?" He asked calmly and in a curious manner.

"What do you know about Gabrielle Hemmings arrange marriage?" Her voice fell quiet in case of hidden listeners.

Kyoya eyed her suspiciously. "And why do you want to know about our client's engagement?"

"Curious?" Maybe it wasn't her business. Okay. It wasn't. However when she had watched Gabriella stare at the pink phone that danced on the table through vibrations and how she had answered Alison's questions of who it was, her tone was anything except happy. Of course Alison assumed that was because Gabriella did not like guys, at least not in that way and now she was being forced into a marriage.

"Just Curious?" Kyoya looked at her and then towards the stairs as he began heading down them. "All I am aware of, is she's engaged to a young man in Britain whose in a family that been friends with her own for ages."
Alison followed him down the stairs. "That's all you know but yet you know my school records, that I'm a god sister of Haruhi, that i was adopted and born in America?"

Kyoya shrugged as he turned the corner heading down the next flight of glorious stairs. "I contained most of my information from your godfather. Ranka is a kind man who seems to love to ramble about his children, and I do not see anything wrong with that. As for your school records, they weren't hard to find. Then again the Otori family does have its very own police force so information does come easily." He pushed up his glasses, thinking it was time to get them re-tighten just a bit. He heard the tapping of her footsteps as Alison followed him down the stairs and caught up to his side once again when they reached the main floor. "How was your exam?" He fixed the placement of his school bag once more and watched her fiddle with the sleeve of her jacket before removing the ribbon from her hair.

The two walked together, the presence they shared felt strange, slightly uncomfortable yet in a way familiar to the youngest Otori. It puzzled him but he concluded it was because Alison was Haruhi's god sister and the two were similar in a few ways. He glanced back over as he waited for a response wondering if he should repeat himself but before he could she gave a small sigh. "I think I passed. I mean… I hope I did." Her eyes meet his and he nods with a small breath in between while he listens. "I haven't known any of the host for that long… however Haruhi speaks about you guys a lot. She seems like a happier person because of you all. And therefore I wanna get to know you guys. You know?"

A glowing smile was sent his way by her and he couldn't help but return it with a small one. "We will appreciate your presence then." Alison's smile only grew as she nodded happily hearing his words.

There footsteps faded as they reached the main the entrance. Alison pushed the door up for the both of them, gesturing Kyoya to go ahead. "Good sir." She mimicked playfully a fancy accent, one she would assume a butler would have even though she never had one. She hoped he would be playful back, his serious demeanor weighing her down slowly.

Kyoya noted this quickly, and couldn't help but think about all time he played along for Tamaki's sake. He sighed mentally to himself as he could do for one person, here and there. "Thank you fair ma'am?" He tried copy her tone but failed and watched as a giggle escaped her.

"Oh my god! The serious guy has a playful side!" She announces far too loudly for only the two of them.

He immediately filled with regret and annoyance. "Whatever." He muttered under his breath yet she could still make out what it was he was saying before he walked passed her. "See you soon, Kobayashi."

She nodded watching him pass through the courtyard and into his ride that had been waiting for him. A moment later she watched as the wheels began spinning and his limo moves farther into the distance. She took a breath and began walking yet the sound of the entrance door opening behind her fed her curiosity. She stopped in order to look over her shoulder, correctly and to not have to fear of walking into anything. Her attention landed on the entrance she had came from to see her god sister leaving the school doors. A smile formed across her cheeks while she pushed her hair over her shoulder. "Thought you were already heading home?"

"Huh?" Haruhi looked up as she closed her bag and placed it on her shoulders. She brushed her hand through her hair, moving her bangs from her face and met eyes with her godsister. A grinned creased her eyes slightly. "I thought the same about you." She joined Alison's side. "Shouldn't you be picking up your cat?"

Alison nodded. "Correct!" The smile that lingered on her face grew wider as if she were on cloud nine. "I miss my baby boy." She sighed with relief, placing a hand over her heart. "It's been so long since I've seen him!"

"You saw him last week." Haruhi eyed her with a playful giggle and took lead in walking.

Alison rolled her eyes and slowly began to follow, her steps lacking with length. "Ohhh big brother," She looked down at the brunette, "You don't understand the feeling to come home to cat purring up to you in hopes to be fed and you know the truth but you also pretend it's not just because of food, but also because he loves you." She clenched her fist, looking up at the sky dramatically. She glanced back at Haruhi. "But really, cats are great and Huffle loves cuddles." She shot finger guns as she quicken her pace switching roles with Haruhi and taking the lead in walking on the sidewalk.

Haruhi laughed as she watched Alison's finger guns. Always the playful one. "I'm surprised my dad allowed this." She smiled gently, watching the features in Alison's face soften with a turn of her head. The host stared at her and glanced down for a second, noting the cracks within the sidewalk. "Is.. is everything okay?" She spoke quietly and eyed her concern.

Alison turned her gazed forward and shrugged. "Hey," She bit her lip and ran her fingers through her hair, "You wanna come with me to get my cat? I mean… If you're busy then you don't have too. I know how school is important and that you only have like two free nights of the school week that doesn't have a club meeting. And I don't want to waste your time or like make this hassle-"
"Al."

"Yes?" Her blueish-green eyes met with large brown ones.

Haruhi chest lifted with a small chuckle. "You're rambling," She pointed as she reached into her bag while they walked to grab her hair pins, "and I'll join you."

Alison wrapped an arm around her. "Thank you! Oh! You'll make a great Auntie to Huffle. Also you wanna be his godmother?" She eyed at the brunette for an answer.

Haruhi chuckled at the question. "I'll think about it?" She responded hesitantly, and pined her bangs back.

Alison threw her arms up with excitement and hugged Haruhi closer while she led the way. "Yes!"

Haruhi only laughed louder while her smile grew wider. "How was your exam?"

Alison rolled her eyes. "Don't know, but what about after my exam?" She beamed, nudging her god sister.

The natural host rose an eyebrow. "What about it?"

"I spent the ninth hour with Gabriella and Haruhi..." She groaned softly. "I'm a fool." She smiled hopelessly. "She's just-" Alison groaned as she cocked her head back towards the sky. "I feel like a boy crazy middle schooler," She tugged at her hair gently trying to figure the best way to explain this, "Like... a random guy just looks at them and then they suddenly are drawings hearts around his name and devoting their love to them. Except I'm not doing any of that… I just develop crushes on people to fast." She groaned once more. "Help." She glanced at her god sister.

Haruhi sighed, wasn't she the worst person for this? Reflecting on herself, she knew she apparently could not tell when someone was asking her out. Not only that, but she never cared for a romantic relationship, at least not right now. She placed more than most of her focus on her studies and she was perfectly happy with that. "Maybe… tell her about it…?" She suggested. "I mean… first off maybe think as to why you like her-"

"Ohohoh! She's really smart! Did you know she wants to be Biochemist! She's really intrigued about DNA and finds it incredible that we're all just made up of small little cells. She also really passionate about it and the idea of having a career she'll enjoy as well as possibly curing diseases. Isn't that sweet?" Alison took a breath as she led the way down a flight of stairs to the subway, "Also she has a large, orange cat named dog. Her and her brother named him together, they apparently found him in a hotel parking lot when they were on a trip with their parents." Alison giggled and stopped at a ticket machine purchases two rides for both her and Haruhi. Before Haruhi could protest Alison grabbed her hand. "So anyways, Gabi pretty great. We spoke all ninth hour and shared stories. However I also found out she's getting married to some guy in England or something." She pouted gently as she board a sub cart, pulling Haruhi along. "It just sucks."

Haruhi nodded her head, trying to keep up. "Tamaki informed me of that the last time she requested me." She paused with thought and itched back of her neck. "And then the twins told me she presented her essay on arranged marriage in English class and almost Japanese language class too."

Alison bit her lip. "Yikes…." She sighed. "Maybe there's a solution to it." She stood grabbing hold of a pole.

Haruhi nodded and followed Alison's movements. "Hopefully."

Alison sighed and clenched the pole and leaned her head against the cool mental. She wondered if there was anything she could do for Gabriella, but she had no idea where to begin. Middle class or not, her father would never place her into a situation unless she had agreed to it. She could not imagine the thought of marrying a stranger with the potential of never falling in love with them or even growing a friendship. There had to be something she could do for Gabriella. There had to be.
