Haruhi thought this email from Kyoya was rather odd. It seemed like him, sort of, yet it also didn't quite fit her image of him. Haruhi read back over it again.

Haruhi,

I would appreciate your opinion on something. My father is pressing me to find someone worthy of the Ohtori name to settle down with. At the present moment the only person I know of that is worthy is you. This is problematic since you are practically engaged to Tamaki and I cannot do anything to hurt him, despite how annoying he is at times. I am thinking that, as a substitute for you, I may ask Alianore Roux to accompany me to a few events. I would like to know your feelings and thoughts on this because of your closer relationship with her family. Her brother Zackarie is doing well in the Host Club and her father is a respected ambassador. I know all of this and I also know that a relationship with her would be a good alliance. What I want your opinion on is whether or not we would be compatible.

She seems to be rather flighty and silly, like Tamaki is. Yet, like Tamaki, there seems to be something else there. You are much better at reading people then I am, after all, you were able to understand the twins and tell them apart so easily. So, all I ask, if you could tell me your thoughts on her. If you do so then I will attempt to distract her enough so she stops trying to take Tamaki away from you. Whether this is by pursuing her with the thought of marriage as a goal or with the intention of merely placating my father.

Kyoya

P.S. I do find her rather likeable and beautiful, but this is nothing special in and of itself.

Haruhi leaned back in her chair and considered what Kyoya was asking. Part of her had been wondering lately if Tamaki wouldn't be better off with Alianore, after all, he had loved her before he even met Haruhi. Then again, they were very similar in some ways and Tamaki was claiming that he had fallen out of love with Alianore when he had fallen in love with Haruhi.

Haruhi thought for a while longer before opening a new email and typing a reply to Kyoya.

Kyoya,

If what I have to say here in this email makes you unwilling to marry Alianore, then please don't lead her one. She is a very sweet and nice girl who has already been hurt by what Tamaki's grandmother has put her through.

Alianore may seem flighty and silly, but that is merely because she is extremely excitable and passionate. Once she has put her mind to something she doesn't give up. Even now, with her distractions over trying to break Tamaki and me up, she is passing all of her classes and making connections to help her enter international politics. I believe she would be an asset for the Ohtori family. But I believe more, that she would be an asset to you. If you could fall in love with her and get her to return your love, she would be the one.

If you want an idea on how to have her agree to date you, here's one: Convince her by doing it she will make Tamaki jealous. She won't by the way, he would be happy she found someone, like he did. But if she believes it she will agree and then you can convince her to choose you.

I hope this helps you. I need to go now, Tamaki is picking me up for dinner in about ten minutes and I'm still in clothes he would deem 'unacceptable', which would of course make him pout…and we can't have that can we?

Haruhi

P.S. Good luck, I think the two of you would work well together.

Haruhi clicked send and then hurried into the bathroom to get ready before Tamaki showed up. He was taking her out on a yacht to celebrate their two year anniversary. She would find out from Kyoya later what he thought of her ideas and find out if he would utilize them in his pursuit of Alianore. Tonight was the time to put Kyoya out of her mind, after all, he wasn't the one for her.

Author's Note: Hehe, hope this helps some for those that wanted to picture how Kyoya got with Alianore. Maybe I'll write a story on their courtship...which you KNOW would be messy... :D Tell me if you would like me to do that, I will probably have some unexpected free time on my hands and I have an original story idea I may try and get published, but between writing on that I will want to keep writing fanfic to polish my writing skills and get feedback on my abilities. Does that make sense? Oh, if anything I write ever does get published I'll tell you and I'll tell you my real name so you can find if you would like. Don't hold your breath on waiting for that though, all I've done is outline and draw up character sheets so far, I still have to establish the rules of the universe (it's a fantasy) before I can start writing.

Ah! I'm rambling again...bad habit...sorry! Oh, the title, if you don't understand, is Kyoya utilizing his relationship with Haruhi to find himself a suitable wife. Also, in case you haven't read Facade, Kyoya took Haruhi out on a yacht for their two year anniversary. Parallel's are rampant!
