Butterflies

Character:Haruhi Fujioka

When I arrived at Music Room number three, the rose petals never flowed from the door way. There was no welcome spoken in unison by the boys that had become my friends. What was there in this place that had become my second home was a very big box. It was wrapped in ridiculous yellow paper with jolly dancing teddy bears. Big blue ribbon was wrapped around up all four sides. On top a giant blue bow.

Now I would have been more surprised by the box, but what really through me off, was that Tamaki was not here calling me daughter. The possibility that the twins were not trying to swindle me into a dress or bathing suit was foreign. I searched the pantry looking for Honey-sempai; the plates with fresh cakes untouched made my stomach ache. A need to see them was far greater than the curiosity of what the box held.

"Sempai?" My voice called out, it sounded far too worried to be mine, but when I called out again there was defiantly that same tone. Turning to the obvious present I watched it for a second. Holding my breath I reached towards it, nothing happened. I knocked, and then put my ear to the side. Nothing, no sound coming from it. It didn`t even sound hallow.

"Hello, where is everyone!" I shouted, more frustrated than nervous now. I turned around once again observing my surrounding. Tamaki- sempai, Kyoya- Sempai

Nothing. Well, maybe the box had a tag or something. A clue, Hikaru and Kaoru loved to play games, maybe this was a game. I walked around the box and reached up into the bow, a tag the size of my forearm fell from the loop.

My name, Fujioka Haruhi was neatly scrawled on the tag. So it was my present. Laughing at the absurd gesture I pulled the ribbon blue ribbon, the sides of the box collapsed outward now that the ribbon no longer held them aloft. Inside the box was a small statue, it was of a butterfly. It sat on an open flower. It`s wings were bright blue and sat partly closed. I walked towards it and noticed right away that it had a wind up on the base.

"A wind up?" I asked out loud. I knelt before the statue to inspect it further. Why would there be such a big box for something so small.

Crawling forwards I picked up the statue and wound it up, placing it back on the ground before I let it go. A ticking sound started then, the lights went out. The butterfly statue lit up, lights and twinkling sounds started to play, flashing colours played against the walls of the club room and flutes played a lyrical tune.

Laughing I stood and clapped mesmerized by the sounds and lights a watched as picture of the boys flashed on the walls. Pictures of us going to the beach. Honey and Mori-sempai waving. Kyoya and Tamaki. The twins with the hats on covering their parted hair. "The Which one is Hikaru" game pose stood before me, pointing I laughed as Usa-chan hopped onto the walls.

The music stopped and then the lights shut off. The fun was over, the room once again quiet.

"We made it for you Haru-chan." I heard from Honey- sempai.

"We don't want you to be scared when the storm comes. It was Tamaki`s idea." Hikaru voiced from behind me.

"So when we can`t come rescue you, you will know we`ll be thinking about you." Oh Kaoru.

The lights flicked on Kyoya`s hand on the light switch, each of the boys are standing by the door. When did they come in?

"We were going to get it for your birthday, but you said you didn`t want a fuss." The stoic dark knight returned his eyes to the black book. What did he write in that thing?

I picked up the butterfly statue, it was heavy, but it wasn`t so bad. I would need a box to carry it in on the way home.

"Kyoya took the pictures. It was Mori`s idea to make it a butterfly. So do you like it Princess?" Tamaki's soft voice reached my ears.

I stared so hard at the statue cradled in my arms. It was a music box; they had got me something to chase away my phobia.

My eyes stung and I cried.

"Thank you," I whispered. Arms came around me, warmth. "Thank you."


Hello Everyone! This is chapter two for the night. I pulled this one out just yesterday afternoon. For some reason, I don't think I like the title as much as I did yesterday.

God I love Haruhi! Haha Put you hand up if you do too? O.K. Awesome, so I'm not alone in this I heart Haruhi world. :P

I think I may have struggled a bit with this one. The last Haruhi one I did was kinda sad and I wanted the next one to be a happy one. This is happy don't get me wrong, but their is something cloudy with it. I really like playing with her weakness because she is a very genuinely strong character, so this weakness with her does feel right.

Hope you liked this one to. Next one is going to be Mori and Honey. I got it done just editing is left. Maybe if your all good I'll post it day after tommorrow. Haha

I love bribes. Tell me what you think!

HAPPY WRITINGS!!
