Ch 14

"Hi dad" Haruhi said as she and Tamaki walked into her house. It was about 6:00pm. "Oh Haruhi how did it go? How is Tamaki's grandmother? What did she have to say?" Ranka asked. "We'll tell you over dinner." Haruhi said as she walked in to the kitchen. "I'll go get it started." "Would you like any help?" Tamaki asked her. "No thanks. We have it." She said with a wink and left the room.

Tamaki and Ranka went to sit down in the living room. "Um Ranka?" Tamaki said. "Yes what is it Tamaki?" He replied. "I was wounding if I could have that ring now. That is if you would still like me to have it." Tamaki asked a little afraid that he had changed his mind about them. "Of course you can. What's wrong. Your acting a bit odd. Did something happen when you guys saw your grandmother?" He asked knowing that it couldn't have been about the baby if Haruhi had that big of a smile. "Kind of. You see my grandmother knows that she is going to die and she said that she would name me heir to the Souh family." "But isn't that good?" Ranka asked thinking it was. "Well yes, but. She said she wants me to finish school and she also wants me to marry Haruhi but. Something in the way she said it, didn't feel right so I hastate to answer her. But then Haruhi answered for me. I'm happy she did but. . . something is off and I can't seem to find what it is." "I think your worrying to much. You did say she was dieing, right. Sometimes death brings out the best in people. They see that in their life they haven't been good to someone or they see that they should have or shouldn't have done this or that. So they try to make up for it in the time they have left. Saying she want you to marry is her way of giving you her blessing." Ranka smiled and handed him the ring box. "It a nice clear night. I think you should asked her after dinner under the stars." "Thanks" Tamaki took the box and put into his pocket just in time before Haruhi saw it.

"Dinner's done." Haruhi said bring in some plates. "Dad can you bring in the food as Tamaki and I set the table." "Sure hunny." Ranka got up and brought in a larger bowl of white rice and pock. He set it on the table and sat down. "Ok, its dinner time. Tell me what happened. First I want to know what the baby is going to be." Ranka said as soon as he sat down. Haruhi sat next to Tamaki. He wrapped his arm around her. "Well I was thinking that on Friday we can meet up with all of our friends some where and tell them all at once." Haruhi said looking at Tamaki. "I think that would be a good idea, but we should tell your father for now." "Yes, yes tell me." Ranka cried. "I was going to." Haruhi said. "Well…" Ranka said impenitently. "We're going to has a pair of twins." Haruhi said with a bigger smile then before. "One boy and one girl" Tamaki added. "Ohhh my little girl's having twins." Ranka said moving over and hugging his daughter. They continued to talk about different baby topic for the rest of dinner. Like: names, should we have a shower, who would they look more like?

After dinner Tamaki asked Haruhi if she wanted to go for a walk. At first said declaimed but then said ok when Tamaki explained how beautiful the stars were. They walked hand in hand along the sidewalk in front of her apartment. Tamaki stopped and looked up at the stars. Haruhi looked up too. "Haruhi, I want to ask you something." "What is it Tamaki?" She asked. "Close your eyes" Haruhi closed her eyes and cover them with her hands. Tamaki kneeled down on one knee and got out the ring box. "Ok" both Haruhi's eyes and mouth opened. "Haruhi, my love, would you do me the biggest honor in the world and marry me?" Haruhi was in shock. "Yes, yes, yes I'll marry you." Tamaki slid the ring onto her finger. Haruhi looked at it and started to cry. "What is it Haruhi?" Tamaki asked. "This ring. . . It was my mother's. How did you . . " "Your father gave it to me. When he asked if I wanted it. I couldn't think of any other gem that could be more precious." Tamaki said cutting her off. Haruhi flue into his arms and he hugged her tight. "I guess our little get together is now our bridal shower." Haruhi said with a laugh. Tamaki smile at her. "Come on, it's getting a bit cold. Let's on in." She nodded and they want in.

Later that night

"You did what?" Kyoya yelled into is phone that believing what he just herd. "I asked Haruhi to marry me and she said yes." Tamaki told him again. "Haru-chan is getting married? We need to get a big cake." Hunny said on a different line. "Ah" Mori agreed. "Yes, Hunny-sempi the biggest and the most delicious." Tamaki said switching phones. "Shouldn't you see what Haruhi wants" Hikaru said. "Yea maybe she doesn't want a big wedding" Kaoru said. "Well we did talk a little about it. She wants to get married at the same church her mother and father were married." "Ah St. Peter's in Tokyo." Kyoya said. "Kyoya, how did you know that." Hikaru asked not believing that Kyoya would look that far into Haruhi's life that he could name the church off the top of his head. "Haru-chan will look so cute in a long white dress." Hunny said. "Ah" Mori agreed. "Oh Milord, how was Haruhi's check up. Did you fine out if it's a girl or a boy?" Kaoru asked. "Oh right. That was the reason I called you guys. On Friday at like 6:00 come over to my house. Haruhi wants to tell all of you at once." Tamaki said. "Why do we need to wait for Haruhi to tell us the she is going to have. . ." "Kyoya don't say anything." Tamaki yelled. "What makes you think I know" Kyoya asked. "Because you know everything." The twins said. "Well we can talk more about it later. Good-bye everyone" Tamaki said then hung up all five phones. He looked at the picture of him and Haruhi next to him. "Good night my love" and want to bed.

Haruhi couldn't sleep. She sat up in her bed and looked at her right hand. Her mother's ring was now hers. She when looked down and put her hands on her stomach. "What are we going to do?" She asked herself. Yes, she loved Tamaki and her children to be, but she still worried about how it will turn out. "School was starting again in two weeks and I can't hide the fact that I'm getting bigger. And what are we going to do when the kids are born. Will I be a good mother? Am I really ready for this? Were will we live? I don't have any room in my home for them. Should I talk to Tamaki about moving in with him? It would be the right thing to do isn't it? That way Tamaki can see them everyday. But then what about dad? Will he baby-sit when I'm at school? Or will Tamaki have one of his maids? Or should I quit school for them? Oh I don't know." Haruhi had to talk to someone. She looked at her clock. It was midnight. She couldn't call Tamaki, and if Kyoya was already asleep he won't be any help. Hunny saw her as a big sister so he was out and the twins will try and come over. So Haruhi picked up her cell phone and called Mori.
