"Well- that wasn't that bad," Hikaru said, and Kaoru softly nodded. Kyoya and I had sat next to each other the whole time- with Kaoru on my other side. It had been quite amusing watching them fight. I saw Haruhi pick up her bag and head out the door.
"See yah tomorrow," she called over her shoulder.
"Bye guys!" I exclaimed, and ran after her. I caught up to her fairly easily, and we walked together.
"So- have fun today?" Haruhi asked me.
"Yeah, kind of," I nodded, smiling slightly, and softly biting my bottom lip; I admitted to her," I kind of really liked it when Kyoya fought over me… Even if it was pretend and all… it was still..- would u call it, romantic?" Haruhi looked over at me with that soft smile on her lips and I couldn't help but smile back. We walked all the way to Haruhi's apartment, and I waved goodbye. Taking a deep breath, I started on my way to my house. A little ways down the street, a limo pulled up- and the window rolled down.
"Ky… Kyoya-san," I said, slightly surprised. His house was the opposite way- why was he coming this way?
"Would you like a ride home Yuuki-san?" he asked me, nonchalantly.
"Uh… sure… Thank you Kyoya-san," I replied, smiling softly. The window rolled up and the door opened. I climbed in, and sat down on the seat.
"You seem surprised," Kyoya noted, and I slightly shrugged.
"The insides of our limo's are completely different," I told him- it was supposed to be a lie- but it was actually the truth; though it wasn't why I was surprised. It was rather quiet on the drive to my home- but every now and then, I would look over at Kyoya out of the corner of my eyes, and see him looking at me. When he saw I was looking at him- he would look away. A few moments later, we arrived at my place.
"Thank you for the ride Kyoya-san," I told him, as I opened the door.
"Don't mention it," Kyoya told me, smiling slightly. I got out of the limo, and as I shut the door, I heard the front door of the house open.
"Yuuki!" Turning around as the limo left, Kii engulfed me in a huge hug.
"Oh thank heavens," Kii said, and then took me by my arm and led me up the stairs.
"I just got off the phone with your father about an hour ago- he told me to tell you that as soon as you got home to call him," Kii said, as we walked inside. She took my schoolbag and another maid took it up to my room.
"Alright… Um Kii?" I said, hesitantly.
"Yes?"
"Do you think you could fix me something to eat real quick? I'm kind of really hungry…"
"Of course! It'll be ready by the time you get off the phone with your father," Kii promised, and disappeared off to the kitchen.
"Now or never," I whispered and walked up the stairs to my room. Going into my room- I saw the place was a mess- and cursed out loud.
"Damn it Kalori! Stay the hell out of my room!" I yelled towards the wall that separated us. I didn't know if she was home or not- but I didn't care. If she was then I know she heard me. Stomping over to my bed, I picked up the phone and dialed my father's main number.
"Hello- Uchiha and Associates. How may I help you?" a woman's voice asked.
"Hi- this is Uchiha, Yuuki- I'd like to talk to my dad if he's not busy please," I said.
"Confirmation number?" Opening the drawer beside my bed, I pulled out the notebook and opened to the first page.
"Star-69303817," I answered.
"One moment please." I waited no more then ten seconds- and then I heard someone on the other line.
"Yuuki?!"
"Dad… I'm sorry if I scared you- I really am," I told him right off the bat.
"Oh thank goodness your alright- where have you been?"
"I stayed at a friends house for a little while. I had to have some time away from here- to cool off and everything," I told him. Most was the truth; with what Kalori had done- it made me want to punch her in the face until I rearranged it- and usually im not a violent person.
"Ah. A friend huh? Who might this be?" My father asked.
"Her name is Fujioka, Haruhi-san."
"Fujioka, Haruhi-san… hmm, alright. Well- please, promise me you'll never do this again- at least without telling someone?"
"Promise."
"Alright- well, I have a meeting in a few moments, so I'll talk to you later. Love you."
"Love you too dad." The line went dead and I put the phone down. Placing the notebook back in the drawer and closing it- I walked out of my room and down to the kitchen.

The next morning, I let the limo take me to school and arrived earlier then if I had walked. As I began walking towards the school building, I felt as though something wasn't right. A shiver ran down my spine- and I turned around, seeing if anyone was behind me. No one was. Passing it off as a sign of the chills- I continued walking to my first class.
"Yuu-chan!" A short blonde grabbed my arm and walked with me. Behind us walked Mori, always the quiet guardian. I always felt safe around him and Kyoya for some reason- I didn't quite know why.
"How are you this morning Hunny-san?" I asked him, smiling.
"Wonderful! You Yuu-chan?"
"Never better," I answered, and he smiled up at me. As we approached the Kyoya, Tamaki and the twins- gun shots rang out, and Mori quickly acted- pulling me out of direct sight and into the nearest classroom. Kyoya, Tamaki and the twins were here as well- and Hunny right beside Mori and myself. Kyoya had his laptop out and his phone at his ear; I watched him, and found myself dumbfounded yet amazed and confused at the same time. Shaking my head, I looked around and became scared.
"Where's Haruhi?" I asked.
"She hasn't arrived yet," Hikaru told me and I nodded, relieved. Several minutes passed- and the gun shooting had stopped. We waited a few cautionary moments- and then Mori got up and took a look out. I watched in worry as he stepped out of the classroom and took a few steps in each direction. Nothing happened.
"Looks like it's safe," Hunny said, as Mori came back in the room.
"Ah."
"Who do you think they were trying to hit?"
"I don't-" Tamaki began.
"Yuuki-san," Kyoya said, and was by my side instantly. Everyone looked over at me and saw me clutching my leg. Blood covered my hands and my leg was shaking uncontrollably- as well as the rest of my body. The fear in my eyes was easily readable to Kyoya- and he understood.
"He was after you- wasn't he?"
"I- I… don't know… maybe," I answered, trying to keep the tears back. Flashbacks began and I couldn't take it no more. I screamed and hid my head in my arms- shaking my head, trying to get the images to stop playing.
"Yuuki-san," Kyoya said, grabbing my arms and trying to get me to stop. I kept shaking my head- my eyes squeezed shut.
"No, no, no, no," I kept whispering.
"Yuuki-chan- stop. It's alright," Kyoya told me; my head stopped instantly, and my eyes opened. I saw him- there beside me- understandment in his eyes- and I nodded once with a distant look in my eyes.
"Mori-sempai- stay with her please. I need to make a call," Kyoya said, and Mori nodded, sitting right beside me. I leaned my head on his shoulder, and he allowed me; he knew I must need someone to lean on right now. Across the classroom I saw Kyoya on his cell phone- talking rapidly. He had a line across his forehead, like he was being argued with.
"Tamaki-sempai… what happened?" Looking sideways at the door- we saw Haruhi standing there. She looked around and then her eyes landed on me.
"Yuuki-chan!" she exclaimed and ran over to me.
"Someone has a price on their heads most likely – someone just gunned the spot we were all standing in. No were else was hit," Kaoru said, as he and Hikaru walked back into the classroom. I stared straight ahead- could it have really been him? After all this time? Why now? Why me?
"Ambulance is on the way," Kyoya said, as he appeared beside Haruhi. I could see frustration in his eyes- and I realized that something was bothering him.
-
Hours later, I sat in a hospital bed at Ootori's hospital- courtesy of Kyoya. I looked around the room, trying to engulf myself in something- to get my mind off of what was going on. I heard the soft clearing of the throat and looked up. Kyoya was standing at the door, and I smiled weakly. After shutting the door, he came in and sat down next to my bed; the look in his eyes told me something was up- and I had a bad feeling he was going to ask.
"What aren't you telling me Yuuki-san?" he asked me, and I swallowed a lump in my throat; that was the question I had hoped to ignore- he continued," Please don't say nothing- because I know something is up. That look in your eyes back at the school… What is it? Please tell me- I can help you… I want to help you." My mouth partially opened in surprise and we stared at each other for a couple moments. Finally- I decided it was best to tell him myself- rather then him find out later.
"Well- it's kind of a long story…" I told him.
"I have time," he replied- and so I began.
