The car ride, or limo ride, to the park was awkward to say the least. Thankfully though, Kyoya's driver, Reo, has known Lucky for years now. She hadn't seen the man in awhile, so in an attempt to make it less awkward she spent the ride having a conversation with him. When they arrived at the park, Lucky thanked Reo for the ride and said they'd call him when they wanted to leave.

"Come on, let's go sit by the water." Lucky said while watching to make sure Kyoya was following her. She didn't get any response besides a small huff. The girl was nervous on the inside, yeah the two had a tendency to fight, but this was different. They weren't really fighting… they were just annoyed with each other and dancing around a problem. Lucky didn't even really know what was going on. She assumed that Kyoya was jealous, but she didn't really have any confirmation on that theory. She let out a sigh as they reached a gazebo that looked over the water. Her heart clenched when she realized the two were sat on opposite sides of a bench. Normally she would be practically in his lap.

"You need to tell me what's wrong Kyoya."

"Nothing is wrong." The boy looked at her and gave her a host club smile. A fake host club smile.

"Please don't do this. We can't fix anything if I don't know what's wrong…"

"Do what?"

Lucky cringed at his short responses. He was mad at her, but why? "Do what? Kyoya, your obviously mad at me! You're putting on that fake smile that we both hate and you're trying to be polite. Please just tell me what's wrong! Give me something to go on." Her voice went from exasperated to defeated, "please… Kyoya we're best friends. I don't want to lose you and it feels like you're pulling away from me." The girl whispered those words. She suddenly felt useless, how would she cope if the person she's been friends with basically her entire life left her. She hadn't noticed her eyes brimming with tears, but the raven haired boy had.

He was suddenly right beside her. His hands shook and he went to hold her cheek and wipe away her tears, but before he could touch her he stopped and pulled away. Sighing he put his head in his hands, "I'm sorry. I don't like making you feel this way. But I'm just…" He let out a loud groan.

The girl looked up at him and brushed away her tears, "You're just?" She asked softly, placing a hand on his knee.

"I don't know. I just, when I see you with other people I try to handle it, I do. But I don't want anyone near you! I feel sick to my stomach and I just, I feel like I'm loosing you. And I don't want to lose you!" Kyoya's quiet explanations quickly grew to a yell. His voice wavered as if he was on the verge of tears. He was. Kyoya silently cursed himself for getting so emotional. He knew Lucky wouldn't judge him and she had always encouraged him to explore his emotions, but he felt like a failure. Why should he be mad that she was making friends. His voice was quiet as he took note that Lucky had removed her hand from him, "I know it's not rational. You're allowed to have friends, but I…"

"You're scared I'm going to go off, make new friends, and leave you behind." Lucky told him.

The boy slowly lifted his to meet Lucky's soft, understanding, and defeated eyes, "How did… of course, you know me so well."

The dirty blonde let out a week chuckle as she reached up to brush away the few tears Kyoya had shed in his emotional mix between sadness and anger. "Well that, but I felt the same thing last year."

The raven haired boy let out a small gasp, "But why? I'd never leave you."

"And you know I wouldn't leave you either, but we both know that irrational thoughts have a tendency to take over.." She lightly pushed his shoulder as she took a deep breath, "Last year we rarely saw each other, you and Tamaki each had your own thing. Plus you started the Host Club and in the time we actually spent together, it felt like that was all you talked about. I felt like I was loosing you. So I slowly started throwing myself into school activities, so I wouldn't feel so left out."

"So you wouldn't feel like I just didn't have enough time for you." Kyoya said in realization.

"Yeah."

The girl was once again where she needed to be, sitting on Kyoya's lap, leaning her back into the boy's chest. "I'm sorry."

"Please don't apologize." She maneuvered herself on his lap so she was looking him in the eye. "I want you to know I'll never leave you. You're my best friend through and through. I'm gonna make new friends, and you are too. It's a part of growing up I guess… it's not healthy for us to only rely on each other. Tamaki was a good extension, but we will meet more people"

"I know. It's just hard." He lowered his head so it rested on her shoulder.

"Trust me, I know… How about I properly introduce you to my new friends. That way you won't feel so awkward around them. In a perfect world you would make friends with them too, but I just need you to tolerate them."

"Yeah, okay."

Lucky ran her hands through Kyoya's hair, "But from now on we need to talk about this, okay? It's not good for either of us to avoid this." She felt him nod into her shoulder. "Good, now I feel like I should tell you this now, so we can talk about it okay? I am the basketball team's new manager."

He lifted his head to look at her, "Okay."

"Okay? That's it?"

"I mean, I'm not gonna stop you from doing it. I know you enjoy managing things. Although I was gonna ask you to help me manage the Host Club." He tilted his head slightly.

"I'll help you if you still want it. I'm only required to go to the practices on Thursdays, I'm still going to be apart of the host club. Although, am I even a part of the host club?" She tilted her head while pondering the answer.

Kyoya let out a laugh and kissed her forehead, "Yes, yes you are."

The girl felt things shift with Kyoya's laugh. Things were back to normal, he wasn't mad, she hadn't done anything wrong, and they could be in each other's company with ease once more. "You know you're gonna have to be nicer to Haruhi right?"

"Shut up."

The girl showed him a bright smile, then she gasped and jumped off of Kyoya, running to the edge of the gazebo.

"What?"

"Look!" She squealed as she pointed at the water, "Ducks!"

The boy walked up behind her and chuckled, he wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her head. The two watched the water silently, just enjoying the peace that each others' company brought. Yeah… things were gonna be fine.
