"Welcome home young master!" A group of maids greeted when we walked inside the way too big mansion.

"Thank you! Can someone please make up the guest room adjacent to mine? Miss Robin will be staying with us for a while. Please make her feel at home." Tamaki replied.

"Yes sir!" They all replied before taking my bag and scurrying off.

"T—Tamaki! This is too much! I'll find a place to stay, you don't have to do this." I resisted.

"Nonsense. You and your mother had me stay with you more times than I can count. I'm just returning the favor. Come on, I'll show you where your room is." He said, smiling his normal, charming smile before walking toward the grand staircase. I felt heat rush to my cheeks as I realized just how handsome he had become. I shook my head before following him upstairs. His home was beautiful, as his home in France had been. Good taste ran in his family.

I was barely listening as he was pointing out different pieces of art and what all the different rooms were. I was so distracted by everything that had happened in the past few hours that I ended up walking straight into Tamaki when he stopped. I stumbled backward, embarrassed, and apologized in French several times. A second later, I was lifted off the ground and spun around.

"You're so cute Lori!" He cheered excitedly.

"T—Tamaki! You're going to make me sick!" I laughed, trying not to blush at being held so close to him. He slowly set me down but kept his arms tightly around my smaller frame.

"I just don't want to let you go." He whispered. After a moment of hesitation, I wrapped my arms around his waist and hugged him tightly. After another minute, we finally broke apart from one another and muttered something quickly before opening the door to the room I would be staying in.

"Oh! Master Tamaki! We're just finishing making up the bed now." One of the maids said as she put another pillow on the already pillow-covered bed.

"Everything looks perfect, thank you Mina." My friend told the woman with his signature smile. She smiled and bowed before exiting the room. I looked around the room in amazement. I had spent the last few months cramped in a tiny tour bus or hiding in a crowded hotel. The room was the size of an apartment; complete with a sitting area around a fireplace, floor to ceiling windows with an amazing view of the grounds, and a king size bed.

"This is amazing." I said.

"I'm sorry it's so small, it's the room closest to mine so if you need anything I'll be easy to find!" He apologized.

"Small? Are you nuts? This is amazing!" I told him as I launched myself onto the bed, "So comfy~!"

"Make yourself at home." Tamaki laughed, "How about you unpack and I'll draw you a bath." He excused himself to the bathroom attached to my bedroom and I managed to find my closet. It was a walk-in larger than the bus I stayed on. It had been so long since I had had luxuries like these, I had forgotten what it was like to live in a nice house. It didn't take me too long to unpack all of my belongings, seeing as I didn't have a whole lot to unpack. When I walked out of the closet I found Tamaki straightening out the sheets that I had messed up by leaping on to the bed earlier.

"Ah, sorry." I apologized for messing up the bed.

"Don't be silly, Lori! Go relax in the bath and I'll go see when dinner will be ready." He smiled brightly at me.

"O—Okay." I replied as he walked out of the room. I found myself wanting to run after him, to make sure he didn't leave me again, but I forced myself to take a deep breath and stay in my room. I glanced down at the watch I was wearing to find that it was already past 5 p.m., much later than I expected to be. I moved into the large bathroom to find a huge bathtub filled with water and bubbles surrounded by several lit candles. He always did take things to the next level. I smiled a bit to myself before undressing and fully submerging myself in the warm water. I sighed happily, allowing the water to wash off the day. I instantly felt my muscles relax and I had to think hard about the last time I had felt this nice. Not since I was in France.

I took my time in the bath, washing my hair along with the rest of my body. The smells from the soaps and the candles along with the warmth of the water made me forget all of my troubles and worries. I almost didn't want to get out of the water. With a final sigh, I climbed out of the water and drained the tub. I found a large white towel and dried myself off before realizing that I didn't bring any clothes into the bathroom with me. I slowly opened the door and peeked outside into the bedroom to make sure Tamaki hadn't returned. I tiptoed out of the bathroom and tried to make it to the closet. Tried.

"Lori~! Dinner is almost ready!" The door burst open as Tamaki came bustling in. Unfortunately, my friend came running in right as I walked by the door causing him to crash right into me. In a flash we were tumbling to the ground. I felt his arms wrap tightly around me in midair and a second later he had flipped us over to where I crashed on top of him.
