Thank you all for the reviews, this story has become something I personally think has tested my ability to show case each character in a like-able light, except for Tamaki:P
The week was a rainy one but there hadn't been any thunder, it had overall been a good week for Haruhi. After her fainting incident everyone had apologized and left her alone to deal with life as normal. After all she had been overly exhausted with their constant demands for attention the week before, so it was nice to just have some time for herself. But today was Friday, the day she had apparently agreed to go to the amusement park with Hikaru who was sitting alone at this table hosting. Kaoru still hadn't come back from France but was due back at the end of the weekend.
"Thank you ladies, please come again"Haruhi escorted her quests to the door and was finally finished for the day. Although Kyoya had said it was a club activity she couldn't help but feel like she was doing free labor.
"Hey Haruhi are you ready to go? I figured we could leave before Tono finishes with his guests"Hikaru suddenly appeared beside her. He didn't have that many appointments without Kaoru, their personalities really did balance out well so without one it was kind of a half act. Not that Hikaru minded, the real reason he had even wanted to continue with the host club was because of Haruhi, if not he would have gotten bored by now.
"Don't we have to help clean up?"Haruhi looked around and noticed how everyone except them was still hosting, and Kyoya was no were in sight so he was most likely balancing Tamakis over the top budget spending.
"I'm sure they'll let it slide this time, did you pack the spare clothes?"Hikaru pushed Haruhi out the door with him before anyone could notice they were leaving early. After all everyone had already had their dates planned out with Haruhi, and no one wanted anyone else to win her.
"My dad wouldn't let me leave today without it"Haruhi showed Hikaru the small black bag her dad and packed for her last night. Since this was the first date he had known about, he was really on top of picking her outfit out.
'I could have just worn my uniform'Haruhi thought as she looked inside the bag, it held a cute white and pink dress that would go down to her knees and a pair of sandels she could walk more freely in.
"You can change in the limo"Hikaru walked out the double doors that lead to the front of the school where his limo would be waiting for him. Haruhi followed him out the door.
"I'll change in the bathroom at the park"Haruhi commented now trusting Hikaru, like hell she was going to change in the same place at him.
"I won't look, like roll down the window when you're done"Hikaru waved his driver away to go sit down while he opened the door to let Haruhi in. Haruhi looked at him for a moment, questioning his intensions before getting inside. An just like he said, Hikaru closed the door and stood with his back to the window, blocking his own view.
Haruhi stumbled around in the limo getting dressed. She then folded her uniform nicely and placed it inside the bag. She hadn't worn this dress since her dad took her out for dinner last year, it wasn't anywhere fancy since she didn't want that. But she had at admit she did like the dress.
"I'm done"Haruhi rolled down the window just enough for her eyes to be seen. Hikaru then stepped away from the window and put his hand on the car door.
"I'm impressed Hikaru, you aren't being a pervert today"Haruhi commented as Hikaru got into the limo. He didn't even start grabbing at her for a hug like he always did when they were alone.
"I told you I love you Haruhi, there's not need for me to rush anything"Hikaru surprised himself at how nice he was being. But then again begin around Haruhi just made him feel different, he wanted to be nice to her, to make her smile and laugh.
Even Haruhi had been taken back a bit by his statement, she hadn't expected such a serious answer from him, let alone such a sweet one. Being sweet had always been Kaorus department.
'Is this the new Hikaru? The Hikaru that loves me?'Haruhi thought as she sat beside him in the limo. She noticed he had gotten closer and was now barely touching her hand.
"I can hold your hand tonight right? Since we're on a date?"Hikarus hand was hovering over hers, but he wasn't looking in her direction. In fact he was trying his hardest to focus on a design on the carpeted floor of the limo.
'I guess this is'Haruhi thought with a faint smile on her lips. She had never thought Hikaru could be like this, but he was.
"Sure"Haruhi responded as she felt Hikarus hand cover hers. He scooted closer as they watched the sceneory around them pass, they were getting closer to the amusement park but Hikaru was already happy Haruhi was letting him hold her hand so willingly.
-The Amusement Park-
"Hikaru what the hell is this.."Haruhi mumbled as they stepped out of the limo and saw it was completely empty and the employees were lined up at the gate smiling and waving at them.
"I wanted tonight to be private, it is after all our second date"Hikaru shrugged not really seeing the big deal. After all he wanted to be alone with Haruhi, not with Haruhi and surrounded by hundreds of people that could always bug them.
"I want to go home"Haruhi whispered as Hikaru led her through the gate and passed all the happy employees that were cheering for them now. Haruhi just wanted to disappear.
"Why? I just wanted us to not have to wait for anything"Hikaru had led Haruhi to a bench in the middle of the amusement park, all the rides were lite up around them and the sweet bubble pop music was being blasted around the park. It was normally hard to hear because of all the people yelling and laughing.
"You didn't have to, I like simple things"Haruhi signed, she knew that Hikaru had only wanted to make today special, but she just hated when they spoiled her like that. It always made her feel like she owed them somehow.
"So you want other people here?"Hikaru asked not really understanding why Haruhi wouldn't want the whole park to herself.
"It just seems more normal"Haruhi suggested as she watched Hikaru wave over one of the works who was most likely the manager since he was dressed formally.
"Is everything alright Mister Hitachii?"The man asked obviously in a very good mood. But then again if you told every ticket in your park wouldn't you be happy?
"Contact my maid and ask them to come down with the rest of the staff to have fun at the amusement park"Hikaru quickly ordered the man and then grabbed Haruhis hand and began to lead her towards the rides.
"Hikaru you didn't have to do that..."Haruhi signed as she followed him towards the area were all the larger rides were
"I know, but I want this to be perfect"
It didn't take long for all the servents and their families from the Hitachii mansion came down, they didn't understand why Hikaru had requested all of them to come down but after Hikaru had ordered them to "Have fun" they didn't want to question them. So now the park was filled with the servents and their families from the Hitachii mansion, and they were all having a great time. The food was all of course, free, and Haruhi had been enjoying their foods in between rides. Before they knew it the night had already come and it was close to 7.
"Let's go on the fareswheel"Haruhi pointed to the large beautifully colored wheel. You could see the fareswell for miles and being at the top was always beautiful. Hikaru shrugged and let her lead him onto the ride. The good thing about all the servents being there was that they all had young kids, and none of them could ride the fareswheel.
Hikaru and Haruhi got into one of the small boxes that would eventually carry them to the top. It was always so beautiful at the top, but the last time Haruhi had been there it was 10 years ago and so much had changed.
"It's really nice tonight"Haruhi commented as she leaded back against her seat. She didn't mind Hikaru who sat next to her, with his arm around her. They really did look like a couple and you would never guess otherwise unless you already knew.
"Just don't get sick okay? There's a nice sushi place I plan on taking you to"Hikaru smiled as he felt Haruhi relaxing against him, her head now resting on his shoulder. She enjoyed the cool night air and the beauty of the night sky that seemed like out of reach now.
The box they were in was ready to make it to the top soon, as Haruhi waited for that moment.
"Hey Haruhi?"Hikaru pulled her a bit closer to him as they got closer to the top. An before he knew it they were now staring out over a beautiful view, the ocean sparkled a bit from the lights of the fareswheel but he had seen his view many times, honestly he was more interested in watching Haruhis face light up the way it did
"Hm?"There was a small creek and then they stopped, right at the top to see the perfect view for a view moments longer.
'He must have asked that we stop up here... not like there's anyone else on this'Haruhi thought as she realized that they were indeed stopped. She didn't know for how long but wasn't going to question it, after all this had always been her favorite part of coming to the amusement park.
"Is there a chance you'll fall in love with me?"Hikarus voice was the only sound she could hear besides the soft gusts of wind that blew through the small box they were in.
"Hikaru I..."Haruhi didn't know what to say, she in all honesty, didn't understand her own feelings yet. But when she felt Hikaru moving beside her it brought her out of her thoughts as she looked at him
Hikaru leaned forward and placed his lips over hers. It wasn't like their last kiss. This one was more passionate, it wasn't a simple sweet kiss, it was warmer and it drew her in. Like melting into a pool of warm water, Haruhi leaned back into Hikarus waiting arms that were around her back now. She placed her hand against his chest and gently pulled away feeling her heart racing now
"Hikaru wait I don't think it's safe to do something like this up here"Haruhi tired to make an excuse as she felt her cheeks flushing red. It was as if she'd ran a mile with the way she could feel her cheeks pulsing to match her heart beat.
'What was that?'Haruhi thought as she felt Hikaru coming closer to her again, this time his lips near her ear.
"I'll keep you safe Haruhi, you just need to trust me"Hikaru voice had lowered from his normal playful loving tone to something deeper, more lustful sounding.
'Trust Hikaru?'Haruhi had never really asked herself that question before. Did she trust him? Sure she trusted Kaoru with her secrets, Mori and Kyoya with her life, and Tamaki.. he could keep his lips shut. But Hikaru?
It was a silent conclusion as Haruhi closed her eyes and let him claim her lips again. While the bench they sat on was a basically a large hard plastic Haruhi didn't seem to mind so much as Hikaru laid her down on it. She could tell they had moved positions by how Hikarus hand was on her lower back and his other on her leg. With her hands tangled into his soft brown hair, she had to admit the color did suit him.
"I love you Haruhi"Hikaru pulled away from her lips allowing them to get a chance to breathe, he had never imagined it'd feel so good to kiss her. It wasn't anything like when he kissed his brother, or when he had kissed other girls in school before. It was so much sweeter and addictive.
'Why is this happening to me, it feels like I'm burning'Haruhi thought as she opened her eyes and felt Hikarus lips against her neck now. She could see the stars in the sky as she looked upward, she felt her lips were puffy now and her body felt warm. It was the same feeling she felt when Mori had been kissing her, but this time it was hotter and it actually felt like it would consume her.
'Why does she have to taste so wonderful? I didn't think that we'd be moving this fast but I..I want her'Hikaru had never planned for something like this to be happening, he was already surprised enough Haruhi hadn't demanded that he get off her. But it was happening and he didn't want it to end. Hikaru moved his hands to life Haruhis dress above her waist, it wasn't easy and Haruhi didn't seem to notice as Hikaru pushed her legs apart with his knees and was now pressing against her
"Hikaru?!"Haruhi came out of her dazed state of mind when she felt Hikaru pressing against her now. His hips were so close to hers and she could feel him pressing to get closer. She had never been so thankful for buying thick cotton underwear in her life.
Either Hikaru hadn't heard her or he simply wasn't listening when Haruhi yelled out his name in surprise because he was unfazed. He could feel himself harden as he pressed harder against her, he had never seen Haruhi like this before and it just made him want her move.
"Why do you have to be so dam cute"Hikaru held himself steady feeling like he was going to die soon, this had never happened to him before and he didn't know how to handle it. One on end there was Haruhi, the girl he loved more than anything lying before him but she sure as hell wasn't willing, and one the other end there was the fact he thought for a moment his designer jeans were going to squeeze him so tight that he'd die.
"I don't want to do this Hikaru"Haruhi would feel her body starting to cool down as Hikaru watched the look of calmness on her face. She wasn't worried, and she really had no reason to be.
"I know, I just really…you know"Hikaru didn't take long to back off her, he was sitting again within moments but had crossed his legs to help hide his current, 'issue' until it went away. An Haruhi had even returned back to her normal spot, feeling much better now.
'It did feel nice though… to feel so warm'Haruhi thought as Hikaru waved his into the air and the fareswheel began to move again. They had been waiting for his signal at the control center for a good 30 minutes now.
"I'm sorry Haruhi.."Hikaru felt a pain in his chest now as they began to come closer to the bottom. Had he gone to far? Haruhi wasn't even looking at him now
'Shit..'Hikaru didn't know what to even say to her now. He had pretty much assaulted her on their first real date! And if he had messed this up there was no way in hell she'd want to go out with him again
"Sorry for what?"They had stepped off the small stage that lead to the fareswheel by the time Haruhi answered him, she had been deep in thought remembering the warm feeling Hikaru ajd given her, but at the same time Hikaru thought she had decided to ignore him.
"For being so impulsive up there.. I've been trying to watch that"Hikaru explained as he kept a foot of space between them now, he was worried he'd upset her too much and she was too embarrassed to say anything about it.
They continued to walk for a few moments before Haruhi stopped, she stood there giving Hikaru a strange look
"It's not like we didn't both enjoy it"Haruhi shrugged not really sure about why Hikaru was apologizing, it's not like he had deflowered her right there on the ride without her consent. In fact he hadn't even removed her panties or touched her there. However Hikaru was shocked by how calm she was being, in fact she was being to calm and nice for his liking.
"Haruhi that's now how you're supposed to respond…"Hikaru signed as he walked back over to her, she had returned to her completely and unaffected self that saw nothing wrong.
"How am I supposed to respond?"Haruhi didn't understand, did Hikaru want her to be mad at him?
"You're supposed to yell at me and call me a pervert for touching you like that! For god sakes Haruhi I was ready to take you right there!"Hikaru hadn't realized he was yelling so loud until the employees who were around slowly started to move away and give them a bit more privacy to talk
"But you didn't"Haruhi interjected as Hikaru let out a breathe in frustration.
"Whatever, come on give me your hand and let's go"
The rest of the night went on without much incident,. Haruhi didn't seem fazed at all by what happened and Hikaru had let go of the guilt since Haruhi didn't seem to care at all. They had gone to dinner at some place Haruhi called affordable and now they sat outside Haruhis apartment in HIkarus limo.
"Thanks Hikaru"Haruhi smiled happily holding the left overs from the restaurant in her hand, she would give them to her dad when she got inside and he'd of course want to know about her night.
"Haruhi before you go can I ask you something?"Hikaru placed his hand on the door handle that Haruhi had been reaching for. They had driven home in normal silence and now Haruhi was pressed up against the door with Hikaru leaning around her.
"Sure"Haruhi watched Hikarus eyes carefully as he seemed to be thinking about something pretty hard but was having a difficult time saying it
"If I had done that.. on the fareswheel up in a bed with you.. would you have let me continue?"
Moments passed of silence as Haruhi sat there looking at Hikarus face, studying his features before she finally answered.
"Yes"
Please review! I'll be updating soon, Mori is up next
