Hey so I finally got 100 reviews! WOOP WOOP lol anyways thank you to everyone who reviewed. I know I was really evil for leaving the last chapter the way that I did and I apologise. Also a quick note to someone who reviewed asking if I am going to do a sequel. The answer is yes I am planning on doing one, only because I know I'm gunna get messages asking me what is going to happen next. Anyway this is chapter 20 inspired by 'Sacrifice' by T.A.T.U
Haruhi pulled the pale pink dress over her head and smoothed it down. Tonight was a Charity ball and as Yuki was a member of the charity committee, the event was being held at the Fujioka household. Haruhi picked up the guest list again and saw that all of the host club's families would be attending this event. Putting the list down, Haruhi moved slowly downstairs to stand by Yuki's side as they greeted guests. She watched as Tamaki, Hunny, Kauro, Hikaru and Mori walked up the path together. She smiled at the sight of them and went forward to greet them.
"Hi" She said nervously. She had not spoken to them since they had been in her room a couple of weeks ago. They all smiled back at her and Tamaki stepped forward and bowed to her.
"My dearest princess, thank you for this invitation" Haruhi giggled slightly at this before replying
"Tamaki-senpai, please don't do that." She ran her hands through her hair "I need to speak to you all. Can you meet me in the gardens in about half an hour?" She asked. They nodded before moving on.
Haruhi finished greeting the guests and walked into the gardens. The host club, with the exception of Kyouya were waiting for her. Haruhi sighed and looked down at the ground before looking up and speaking.
"I want to apologise for the way that I acted to you all" The boys stared at her before Hunny stepped forward and hugged her.
"It's ok Haru-chan. Yuki told us that we hurt your feelings, we shouldn't have acted the way that we did towards you." Haruhi hugged him back. Tamaki coughed slightly before saying softly
"We hurt you?" Haruhi looked towards him and sighed
"Well the 'commoner' comments got frustrating. It always felt that I was on the outside looking in. Like you all didn't want me to be a part of your world" Hikaru looked her before saying bluntly
"Well you are now" Haruhi looked down again
"Yeah and now I can't get out" They all looked at her and just as Tamaki opened his mouth to speak a maid appeared.
"I'm sorry to interrupt Miss Haruhi, but your grandmother is starting the speeches and you are needed" Haruhi nodded towards the maid and waved at the others before disappearing inside. The others followed her in.
Haruhi found her grandmother near the staircase with Kyouya. She waved Haruhi over before saying
"Finally you are here. Now you will need this." Yuki passed an object toward Haruhi before getting the room's attention
"Thank you everyone who came here tonight. Any donations that you make tonight will go to the children's charity Rainbow Trust. So please donate generously. I would also like my Granddaughter Haruhi and Kyouya Ohtori to join me" Kyouya took Haruhi's hand and lead her to her Yuki. She smiled at both of them, before turning to the crowd and announcing
"I would also like to give congratulations to Haruhi and Kyouya, who announced their engagement to me last week. I hope you will all join me in wishing them both all the happiness in their marriage" The crowd cheered, but as Haruhi and Kyouya stood facing them all, they both felt cold and numb.
So that was chapter 20. Please review. I know people have been reading it and not reviewing but please do, I enjoy reading all of them and if you have any ideas or comments please PM me and I will reply to them all.
Xoxo
