AN: So anyway, like always; I don't own anything and please read and review!

Ch. 11 - "Doute"

Haruhi was totally and utterly confused. She had been in love with Tamaki ever since she was eight; when he gave her her first kiss. Tamaki was handsome, charming, and playful. Not to mention Tamaki had been Haruhi's dream man her entire life, but then there was Kyoya. As a child, she was always slightly scared of Kyoya; he was always so serious and clouded in dark mystery, not even mentioning the fact that him and the rest of the Otoori family always seemed so cold. However, now that she had gotten to know Kyoya over the last couple of days; she had grown to realize that Kyoya was smart, complicated, layered, caring when he wanted to be, mature, and very human. Haruhi was scared that she was falling in love with Kyoya.

Kyoya knew he was making the right decision for the business deal by tricking Haruhi into going back, but the ice water in his veins had thawed and now he had a conscience that was currently yelling that it was wrong to trick Haruhi. Kyoya sighed, realizing that he knew what he would eventually do. If you love something, set it free; right? 'Love,' Kyoya thought sadly, 'I didn't even realize that I had fallen in love with her, but I guess I did. But no one would ever love "the Shadow King", and why would she? She's in love with Tamaki and that is the way it should be. I will just have to be happy as long as she is happy; and if Tamaki makes her happy, then I must resign myself to never truly have Haruhi.'

AN: I know; short chapter, but I got more coming! The chapter title is translated to be "Doubt".
