Tamaki's Last Chance
Tamaki had been sulking in his room for two days, because he'd been unable to find Haruhi. He'd searched every law firm in Japan, but couldn't find her. When that didn't work, he checked every commoner's supermarket. It really did show how little he knew her, to think that would be a good idea. There was a knock on his bedroom door, but he promptly ignored it. He had hoped that they would go away, but no such luck. Hikaru and Kaoru walked into the room, followed by Honey, Mori and Kyoya.
"Hey Boss, wake up!" Hikaru said.
"We're supposed to see a show," Kaoru said.
"Go away!" Tamaki snapped.
Tamaki yelled out with both shock and pain, when Hikaru and Kaoru jumped on the bed. "Leave me alone!" Tamaki shouted, as he tried to shove them off the bed.
"Not going to happen," Hikaru and Kaoru said, in unison.
"Yeah, Tama-chan, it would be fun, to go see a show," Honey said. Honey looked at Tamaki with concern, they were all worried about him.
"Tamaki, Haruhi is fine," Mori said. He realised that keeping the secret from him was the worst idea, and he did feel guilty that he hadn't said anything sooner.
"She is?" Tamaki asked. He peeped his head out of the duvet.
The five of them looked of each other, they didn't know whether they should tell him about Aya or not. Kyoya opened his black book, then wrote Haruhi's address on a page, then tore it out.
"This is Haruhi's address, she's moving out today, go see her, while you still can," Kyoya said, as he handed Tamaki the peice of paper.
Tamaki jumped out of his bed, he clutched the paper in his hand, looking at it like a child would if they were given a large lollipop. He could finally see Haruhi again, that made him so happy that words couldn't describe just how happy he was. Even after the past three years, Tamaki hadn't stopped loving her. To him, she was the love of his life, and a part of him hoped that she felt the same.
...
Haruhi and Ryoji had spent the last week packing Haruhi's possessions, to prepare for the move. Most of her larger furniture would go into storage, until she could find a place close to where Ryoji lived. He did want to keep his daughter and granddaughter close, because he did worry about them. Aya didn't completely understand what was going on, but she enjoyed playing with the boxes, like it was her own fort or something.
"Dad, how am I going to get he smaller boxes to your apartment?" Haruhi asked, as she folded some of Aya's clothes and put them in a box.
"That's no problem, I borrowed a friend from work's car," Ryoji replied. He was putting the books on the book shelf into a box. "And, it's our apartment."
"It's going to be so weird, living at home again," Haruhi admitted. She heard the phone ringing. "Dad, could you get that?" Haruhi was packing some of the clothes right at the back of the closet.
Ryoji walked into the kitchen, and picked up the phone. "Hello, Fujioka residence," Ryoji said, when she answered the phone.
"Hello, it's Kyoya, is Haruhi there?" Kyoya asked.
"Hello Kyoya! I'm afraid she's busy right now, could I take a message?" Ryoji replied.
Kyoya paused for a moment, then said, "Ranka, Tamaki is on his way over there. We thought he deserved to know the truth."
"We'll see about that!" Ranka said, angrily. He slammed the phone down. He had no intention of letting Tamaki anywhere near Haruhi or Aya.
It was near lunch time, so Haruhi walked into the kitchen, to make lunch. Ryoji was organising all the boxes, while Aya messed up one of the clothes boxes. She'd pulled it over, and was now putting on random articles of clothes.
...
Tamaki had gotten dressed, faster than he normally would. He wanted to find Haruhi, as soon as possible. In his haste, he'd ran out of the Suou estate, without a car. He through the streets, until he got so tired, he had to stop, to get his breath back. A limo pulled up near him, and a very amused Kyoya emerged from the back.
"This limo will take you to her apartment," Kyoya said, barely concealing how much he wanted to laugh at Tamaki's stupidity.
Tamaki's cheeks flush pink, as he climbed into the car. When it came to his love for Haruhi, he could be irrational. Everyone else was in there, Honey and Mori for support, and Hikaru and Kaoru just because they wanted to watch Tamaki make a fool of himself. Kyoya climbed back into the limo, and shut the door.
"How long have you been following me?" Tamaki asked, awkwardly.
"The whole time," Hikaru and Kaoru informed him.
Tamaki didn't say a word, for the rest of the car ride there, he was too embarrassed. There was so many questions floating around in his head, like; "How much has Haruhi changed? Did she miss him? Did she still love him?" or even, "Did she still remember him?"
When the limo pulled up outside the apartment block, Tamaki was first out of the car, he ran up the stairs, it didn't take long to find Haruhi's apartment, because he checked the the piece of paper, that Kyoya had given him. He knocked on the door, so nervous that his palms were sweating. Haruhi answered the door, the smile vanished off her face, faster than it had appeared. She tried to slam the door in his face, but he held out his hand to stop her.
"Haruhi... please..." Tamaki pleaded. All he wanted was to see her again, and explain everything.
"Go away!" Haruhi yelled, as she tried to slam the door again.
The other host club boys had caught up with Tamaki, none of them where surprised by Haruhi's reaction to seeing Tamaki, considering the situation with Aya.
"Haruhi, he deserves to know," Kyoya told her.
Haruhi admitted defeat, and opened the door. "I know..." Haruhi said, finishing with a sign. "Fine come in, but can the rest of you go help my dad pack?"
Kyoya, Honey, Mori, Hikaru and Kaoru headed into the living room, to help with the packing, to give Haruhi and Tamaki some privacy. Haruhi allowed Tamaki to enter the apartment, even though she was angry at him for what he had done, that didn't stop all the feelings she had for him, from rushing back. She was still in love with him.
