"WHAT?" Tamaki cried, eyes wide with disbelief, even slightly panicked.
Kyoya pushed his glasses up further, "There is no need to yell Tamaki."
"But, but that just isn't right! It is our duty as Host Club members, no, as men to always confess our feelings first! We should never have to put a lady in such a position where she is so desperate as to have to say what she feels first!"
Kyoya sighed, "Though I do second your notions, I do not agree with them as strongly, considering that at times it is necessary for the girl to confess first, sometimes it just works better tat way."
"But Kaoru is a Host Club Member!"
"And that is why I came to you."
"Well as King I cannot stand back and watch this! Kyoya, it is time to take action!"
"And what do you propose we do?"
"We need to get Mori senpai and Honey senpai! Don't forget to grab Hikaru and Haruhi too!"
"Your wish is my command," Kyoya replied with a pleased smirk on his face, giving Tamaki something of a bow before walking off to find the others.
Kyoya easily found Hikaru and Haruhi, talking idly while the TV was on, though they didn't seem to be paying it any attention.
"Hikaru, Haruhi, let's go," Kyoya commanded. The two shared a look before shrugging their shoulders and getting up to follow him outside where they found Honey perched on Mori's shoulders, reached up and trying to pluck one of the blossoms.
"Mori, Honey," Kyoya said simply before walking off, having Hikaru and Haruhi share a confused look before scurrying after. Mori kept Honey safely atop his shoulders and walked on after Kyoya, Honey pouting that he had been unable to pluck the flower before they left but said nothing. The host club members could tell Kyoya was serious, and they were all noticing the absence of one host club member in particular...
"Hey Dai?"
"Yes Kaoru?"
"Where did everyone go?"
A shrug, "I don't know, I don't watch them all the time."
"I don't know where Rain is either."
"She's with Takao, I think he took her somewhere to train, he's worried about her slacking off, especially since her last trip to the market."
"Yea..."
"So, you seem to be spending a lot of time with Rain," Dai commented, watching Kaoru carefully.
"Um, yea, I guess," Kaoru stuttered.
"You like her."
Kaoru blushed, ears burning red and he knew he couldn't lie to Dai, the man was practically a lie-detector. "I do."
"Why don't you do something about it then?"
"I - I don't want to be rejected." This was starting to feel a bit like deja vu...
"Hmm...I can understand that, but what would happen if someone else were to ask her out before you."
"What! Does Kyoya still like her?" Kaoru cried angrily, the thought of how similar this conversation was to the one had he with his brother quickly leaving his mind.
Dai gave a rumbling laugh, "You are blind little one.
"What is that supposed to mean!"
"You have much to learn," Dai told him simply before walking away to leave Kaoru to his thoughts.
