Hello! Well here is chapter 13 and I'd like to say that I'm just a bit proud of it. Though some forewarning, there are some sexual themes nearing the end of the chapter. I think it's obvious when it's coming and I hope it's not too explicit. If it was full-on hanky panky I would definitely place a stronger warning. I might have to change the rating of the story in the future huh?

"Shion. You look like a delinquent."

Those were Haruhi's words when she saw him. There was no hesitation whatsoever in her tone, just her slightly alarmed expression when she comprehended that it was him. The twins had dropped him off at the apartment complex later into the afternoon and Haruhi happened to be there, just getting back from grocery shopping.

"Uh, yeah. That's the point." He ran a hand through his platinum blond straight hair—his eyebrows were done too as an afterthought. He had styled it so the bangs covered his green eye and the other side was tucked back behind his ear.

Haruhi scoffed.

"Doesn't he look like a relative of Tamaki's?" Aaron asked Haruhi.

"Hmm… Now that you mention it, I see a resemblance. But it's not immediately noticeable." She looked over him again, "It's just the blond hair."

"See? I fucking told you so Aaron!" Shion growled. He had been reluctant to dye it platinum blond—he wanted it a bit lighter but the dye was in too long—and it came out darker than he wanted, thus the stronger resemblance of hair colour.

"Woah, language Shion."

"What? I'm getting into character."

Aaron blinked and Haruhi did also, both on the same wavelength, "Character?"

"Yeah. A delinquent character. Now come in and help me out." Shion entered his apartment and Haruhi followed the two after dropping her groceries off in her apartment. She didn't really have anything else better to do and Shion was up to something interesting.

After eating an okay meal—courtesy of Shion's cooking with a bit of Haruhi telling him what he was doing wrong—Shion had them sit in his living room. He had a cup of coffee in his hand. The other two just wanted water.

"You know, this is the first time I've been here. Satsuki's going to be outraged when she hears I was here before her." Aaron chugged his water.

"Then just don't tell her."

Aaron laughed, "Savage!" Then he started dying, some water went down the wrong tube and he was coughing like mad. After downing a quick refill of water he was better, though still coughing occasionally. "So what did you need help with?"

"Well, you see…"

• • • • • •

Shion didn't know what to do. He had everything set to pick Ko up from school already. The motorcycle was delivered four hours prior—around 8 o'clock AM—and he had already gone out driving for an hour to get used to the vehicle. It was a nice bike, black and red with chrome accents. Kyoya had even gone as far as getting two helmets.

"How much longer until school ends?" Shion sighed and looked to the watch on his left wrist. "Four more fucking hours… I'll record some music."

Since school started his upload schedule got more erratic. He had a stockpile of videos ready and he'd uploaded all of them. To be honest he didn't really like the last few songs he did so he didn't upload them.

Maybe I'll redo them today…

His subscribers deserved some good uploads.

As soon as he finished the first recording he uploaded. He hoped that Matryoshka was upbeat enough. He first recorded it after playing it in the park, though he didn't like the way it recorded and so he scrapped it. While it uploaded he went to record another. They were all songs with vocals, he had a tendency to switch between vocals and instrumental music. He was currently in the vocal mood. He just felt like singing.

"Crap." Shion looked to the time on the bottom right of his computer. He had an hour and a half until he had to go to school. Shion had planned to stop recording earlier and exercise but he lost track of time. He would have to work out later then. Shion saved his progress on the songs he was editing and shut the computer down and grabbed his phone to text Ko.

"Hey Ko, you remember where I'll be picking you up, right?"

It was almost frightening with how fast the reply came in.

"Yeah, the front of the school by the gate. Why not the pickup lanes though?"

"Too busy. Also, all the students have to exit the gate to get to the pickup lanes, so your stalker will most definitely see us."

"Oooh. Well, see you soon! I'm excited to see what you'll look like since you're hell-bent on keeping it a secret, you just keep telling me "You'll know when you see me", like dude. Hahaha. I'll see you! ... hopefully."

"Oh. I almost forgot. Don't call me Shion, my name will be… Vincent Weatherston."

"You just made that name up now didn't you?"

"… Yes."

With the time he had left he got into costume. He just washed his clothes so he had to fold them and find the ones he would be wearing, all nice fresh and clean.

When dressed, Shion looked at himself in the mirror. He looked nice, but he needed to look more… imposing like a gang member or delinquent—that's what he was supposed to be. A delinquent. He had some old piercings that he could put on and the holes were still there so it wouldn't hurt… Yeah, earrings would definitely work. With the way his hair was styled they were very noticeable.

"What the fuck." Shion looked at the clock, time suddenly decided to pass by quickly and it was already 3:00 pm. School ended at 3:30. He quickly put on his vest and headed out to the scene.

Bringing the motorcycle to a stop he waited by the front gate. It was about fifteen minutes until the bell rang, he had gotten there a bit early. He put down the hard kickstand meant for long periods of time and took off his helmet. Shion fixed his hair and leaned against the bike, he could already see people in their classes looking out the windows curiously.

There was still some time to spare so he brought out his phone and checked social media and how his uploads were doing on their statistics. Shion looked at the time and the schools' bell was ready to ring in a minute. Time to get into character. Mean, intimidating, cool, attractive, uncaring, quick to anger, Shion took note of those characteristics and altered the way he carried himself. He straightened his back but kept his neck forward and his eyes were narrowed with knitted eyebrows. He didn't need to get too into character like the mafia skit, but he didn't want to be recognized.

Shion reached into his pocket and brought out a cigarette. A real one. He wasn't against smoking, but it was bad for him since he used his voice and needed lung capacity, so he rarely smoked. He would limit himself to three. The bell rang and students started exiting through the gate. Whoever had the guts to look at him got a dark stare to ward them off, though that didn't stop some of them from ogling. While he scared a few, some girls just giggled.

Then there was the real test.

The host club wasn't on duty since Kyoya needed to follow them—and without Kyoya the rest of the members would no doubt wreak havoc. Shion could see them approaching. The twins smirked when they looked at him. Man, Shion could look good if he put in the effort. They whistled and the action brought the others attention to him.

Kyoya's eyes widened at the change. He hadn't been told what he would look like—since Shion liked to surprise he hadn't told anyone. Much to their discontent—though Haruhi and Aaron were the exceptions because he asked for advice from them. If he didn't know what was going to happen beforehand he wouldn't even be able to guess that it was Shion. It was completely different from the Shion he knew.

He saw him tap some ashes off his cigarette.

Shon wore a bright red hooded vest that was unzipped with a tight long sleeve shirt underneath and black leather biking gloves. His pants were dark grey denim skinny jeans that hugged his body nicely, and he had brown boots on. It was simple but nice. His hair was straight from the twins styling and was parted to cover his green eye. Shion also had a number of piercings on his ears—three on the upper cartilage and one on his ear lobe. The rest of the group noticed him and the most immediate thing Shion could notice from them was Tamaki. He was almost seething.

The blond stormed up to Shion.

"What do you think you're doing?!" Tamaki shouted and put his hands on his hips.

Shion took a long breath of his cigarette in before his intimidating lidded gaze slowly shifted over to Tamaki. He let a breath of smoke billow out into his face. Tamaki was too close, irritatingly so. "Waiting for someone. You got a fucking problem with that rich boy?"

He could feel Haruhi flinch behind Tamaki at the tone he used.

"Don't smoke on school property!" Tamaki coughed out from through the smoke.

"Fine." He smothered the bud and went to throw it on the ground, but Tamaki stopped him by grabbing his wrist.

Wow. I didn't think Tamaki could be so bold.

Shion's expression went murderous. He stood up abruptly and leaned forward, grabbing Tamaki's collar. "Don't fucking touch me!" The movement of Shion getting up so quickly caused the hair covering his green eye to shift. Realization dawned upon him. He only knew one person with heterochromia iridium.

Tamaki's eyes widened and he couldn't stop the fearful shiver that ran through his body.

"Shi-"

"Tamaki." Kyoya stepped forward to stop him from revealing Shion's cover. A crowd was starting to form and that wasn't good. "Leave the man alone." Then Kyoya turned to Shion with a business smile. "I'm sorry sir, our friend has a strong opinion about things like smoking and had gotten hotheaded about the situation. My apologies…" Kyoya looked at him expectantly.

Shion sighed and let go of Tamaki. He stumbled back and fixed his shirt. "Vincent."

"My apologies, Sir. Vincent." Then Kyoya put his hand out, discreetly handing him a wireless microphone and earpiece.

Shion scoffed and smirked at Kyoya, taking the items.

"Vince!" They turned to see Ko running up to them. "I let you pick me up this once and you pick fights! I can't believe you. Sorry for the trouble you guys." Ko rubbed his head sheepishly.

Tamaki hugged Ko. "My saviour! How will I ever repay you!?" He was back to his antics already.

Shion bristled and grabbed Ko's arm yanking him away from Tamaki and bringing him close. He snarled, "Don't touch him. Come on Fitz." Shion grabbed the spare helmet from the back storage container on the bike.

"I was late because I wanted to make sure she'd see us," Ko whispered. "She's right there. The redhead with the circle glasses."

"I see…" Shion put the earpiece on before putting on his helmet. He glanced to the side and saw Kyoya give him a thumbs up hidden from the client's stalker. Shion winked at him with a smirk hidden from the helmet. Shion put the keys in the slot and the vehicle came to live. He revved the engine a few times and they were off.

• • • • • •

Tamaki heaved a sigh in relief when they got into Kyoya's limo. Honey and Mori couldn't join them because of some family matters but they were going to follow Shion on the bike and text him where the stalker-lady was. Kyoya would text the details, the distance and where she was relevant to his position.

"Man… Shion's scary." Tamaki put a hand to his throat where Shion roughly grabbed his collar. "Shion just now was a different scary than he usually is. Vincent… he's quick to anger and goes straight to violence. Our Shion would tease and probably yell."

"Both are scary." The twins came to a conclusion. "He's acting. Did he actually hurt you?"

"N-no."

"Then it's fine isn't it?" Haruhi offered with her usual casual tone. "He wouldn't purposely hurt you." She was engulfed in a hug by Tamaki.

"But he was so scary!"

"Yes, yes Tamaki. It's fine." She awkwardly patted his back. "Besides, it's my fault that I didn't tell you guys. Shion told me to relay how he would be acting… I forgot."

"Well, it's over and done with. We need to follow him." Kyoya stared out the window. Shion made to turn right close to the mall area.

• • • • • •

"So what are we doing Vince?" Ko asked.

Shion looked down to Ko, he was rather short. "What do you want to do?"

"Arcade?" Ko grinned, he hadn't been to one for a long time. Not since middle school, he only went to one once before some things happened and he never went to one since.

Shion made a little half-smirk and motioned for Ko to follow. He knew a good one that was nearby. While walking Shion read a text he got from Kyoya. Lady A was nearby. That's what they agreed to call her in the operation. Tamaki's idea. Since they were going into a noisy place Shion text Kyoya to use the earpiece, he wouldn't be able to hear the text tone going off. Also, he lent Ko his vest and he didn't have any other pockets he could use. Stupid skinny jean pockets too tight to be of any use.

They walked around and played some first-person shooter and racing games when Ko just stopped and looked at a game with sparkles in his eyes. So, of course, they had to play it. Ko was playing Dance Dance Revolution—his third round by the way—when Shion was startled by Kyoya's voice in his ear.

"Lady A's at four o'clock. Behind the crane games."

Kyoya was watching from another location in the arcade, making sure to stay out of Lady A's line of sight. He had left the other members in the limo with a small amount of guilt for leaving Haruhi who had to deal with them until Kyoya got back. It was rather entertaining to see Ko struggle to keep up with the game though.

Shion looked to Ko who was sweating and panting. He was leaning on the rail attached to the game for support and was taking a break before the next round. Shion leaned over to whisper in his ear and Ko blushed. Shion couldn't help but chuckle at the reaction.

"Y-you want to try?" Ko tried to remain calm. Shion had said something very unexpected with… implications.

"Sure."

From his hiding place, Kyoya couldn't help but be curious. What had Shion said to get that reaction out of Fitzpatrick? The mic built into the earpiece wasn't sensitive enough to pick it up.

Shion worked up a quite a bit of a sweat with the game and stopped after he got Ko to join in on a challenge. They have been in the arcade for about an hour when Shion thought of an idea. He didn't have any plans to go to one but since they were all sweaty they might as well. It was about a twenty-minute walk away and was close to the café he wanted to have dinner at. There would be no problem, except that he hadn't been in an onsen before.

No time like the present to try new things.

On the way there Shion and Ko talked about trivial things. The weather, how it was getting cooler and cooler as winter came, and some upcoming comedian that was making waves in the industry.

"Oof!" Ko accidentally bumped into someone short. Well shorter than himself—which was rare in itself. He was shorter than Aaron.

"Watch where you're going punk!" The person shouted up to him. He was with two other people. "You made me spill my coffee all over my pants!"

"Pay up!"

Ko backed away, frightened by the delinquents, his back came into contact with Shion's chest. Kyoya who was watching from the limo was worried. The numbers were not in his favour.

"Woah, what's going on?" Tamaki's forehead was plastered to the window.

"Are they fighting?"

"Lady A's watching from the other side of the street. I wonder if she'll intervene." The twins mused.

It's not like they could hop out and blow the whole operation. Kyoya huffed and turned up the volume on his laptop. It was a bit muffled because of the background noise, but more than clear enough to understand.

"Hah?" Shion scoffed, he put his hand on Ko's shoulder and stepped in front. "What do you mean, 'Pay up'? You fucking idiots were taking up the whole sidewalk."

"Idiots? Us? Really?" The short one oozed sarcasm, glaring at Shion. "Pay up."

"For what? Your bruised ego?" Shion leaned over to get closer to his height. "No fucking way. Come on Fitz. Forget about them." Shion grabbed his arm and walked away.

"Get him."

"Behind you," Kyoya warned through the earpiece.

One of the short one's friends wound up a punch and hit Shion on the head. "Ha, take that!" Shion staggered from the blow, but didn't fall. He had gotten that warning a bit late but he reacted well enough that he didn't get the full brunt of the hit. He would have to thank Kyoya later.

"That all you got? Punk?" He taunted and a smirk tugged at the corner of his lips. The same punk threw another punch and Shion grabbed it. They were no fighters. He tightened his grip. "Leave." He pushed him away roughly into the other two and they fell on top of each other.

Ko started walking with Shion again and when they turned a corner Shion pulled him into a shop. The three delinquents ran by in search of them. Shion sighed in relief.

"Fuck that hurts." The initial hit to his head didn't hurt but there was a bruise forming. It would have been much worse if Kyoya hadn't given him that warning.

"Are you alright?" Ko asked.

"Yeah, I will be. It's just a bruise." Shion felt a vibration and took out his phone, long since taking back his vest.

"Where did you run off to? Lady A's trying to follow you."

"We ran into a shop to get those guys off our tail. We're leaving now."

When they got to the onsen, the first thing that greeted them was an old lady sweeping. She sighed bitterly and moved behind the counter. Shion was about to pay for his entry when he saw a sign for dyed hair and tattoos. He couldn't go in. "Excuse me, Ma'am. I just noticed that dyed hair isn't allowed in the onsen, but is it alright if I don't go into the onsen and just use the washing station?"

The older woman who was running the cash raised an eyebrow. "As long as you know you're still paying full price."

Shion smirked, "Alright." He placed the 1000¥ bill down on the tray.

"You." The woman pointed to Ko, "Make sure he doesn't go in the water."

"Aye Ma'am!"

Shion put a hand to his ear and held a button down. "Ey, Kyoya. We're going into the onsen so I won't have my phone or earpiece on me. Did Lady A follow us here?"

"Yes she's waiting outside." His voice came through with some background voices. "Hold that thought, she just went in." Kyoya ended the communication and glared at the rowdy members in the limo.

"Ah, well we have to go home now," Hikaru said after checking his phone. "A limo will be here in five minutes to pick us up."

"Do you want a ride home Haruhi?"

"Yeah, that'd be great." She agreed. Her father would be worried sick if she stayed out until dark.

"If my daughter's going then so am I, I need to escort the precious sapling home safely!"

Kyoya sighed when they finally left. "Good riddance." Now he could wholly focus on the task at hand.

Shion glanced behind him and it was just as Kyoya had said. The girl was in the building with them. How she was following them so precisely was unknown to him, and frankly, it was creepy. They moved to enter the men's section of the onsen.

"I've never been in one of these before." Shion followed the usual rules for onsen and started undressing.

"Really? They're super relaxing… not that you'll be able to enjoy it."

Shion chuckled. "True. But I can't get my hair wet anyways. It'll go curly."

The onsen itself was nice, but what was nicer was that there was no one else in there with them. They were in there for about twenty minutes before Ko started overheating. Shion just basically just washed himself of his sweat and relaxed on a bench.

"You alright Fitz?" Shion had to support him and sit him down on a seat in the lobby of the onsen. He gave him a bottle of water that the lady kindly gave him. She knew the signs of heat exhaustion and she didn't want a customer fainting on her. When he received the water he saw Lady A in a waiting room of some kind hidden in the corner of the lobby keeping an eye on Ko.

"Yeah," he said breathlessly, "I just need to cool down."

"You sure?" Shion brushed Ko's bangs up and leaned over, putting his forehead on his to feel his temperature. "Hmm… You do feel warm."

"You feel nice and cold." Ko smiled.

"I guess my stone-cold heart's good for one thing eh, Fitz?" Shion grinned, Ko laughed at the self-sacrificing humour.

"Alright, I'm feeling better now."

"Then let's get some food."

Ko stayed silent and looked away from Shion when his stomach growled. "Y-yeah… Food sounds good." Shion pat his head and hid his laughter.

When they got out of the onsen the sun was already setting. Kyoya chose to get out of the vehicle. It would be better to follow them on foot now since it would be harder to follow them down the thin streets they were walking around in a limo. It would be noticed immediately. Also when it got dark it would be easier to track them than in the limo.

Instead of the café Shion was thinking about, they walked around and got some street vendor food. Ko was all excited about it like a small child on Christmas and Shion just couldn't say no to that pleading face. Even if it was basically dessert for dinner he just couldn't deny Ko. They ate as they walked close to their next destination. The hotel. The area was becoming less busy and quieter.

"This is sooo good!"

Shion grabbed his hand and took a large bite out of his taiyaki.

"Hey!" He shouted in protest with a blush. Shion's face came close to his and it surprised him.

Shion nodded, it was a cream filling. He smirked, "You're right. It is good."

"You mean was. You ate like friggin half of it!" Shion laughed, which in turn made Ko blush more. "W-well that means I get to try your food." He grabbed his taiyaki and took as big a bite he could get. After a moment of chewing, Ko licked his lips of the filling that escaped. "Mmmm, chocolate." He looked up to Shion and reached up to his face. Ko wiped some chocolate off of the corner of his mouth with his thumb and licked it.

Shion's eyes narrowed and he grabbed Ko's wrist and pulled him along. Kyoya's report of Lady A following them was heard but ignored. She would get the proof that she wanted. It didn't matter that Shion was in role or not, or if it was a job—that action of Ko's turned him the fuck on. Yes, he did swing that way and Ko was pretty attractive, so any hormonal bi teen would get a reaction.

"Vince? Where are we going?" Ko was worried when Shion's expression went serious. A shiver went down his spine when they stopped by the entrance to a secluded alleyway. He swallowed hard. "V-Vince?"

Shion tilted his head and looked down at him with lidded eyes. Shion took a step forward and Ko was backed up against a wall. "So you like chocolate, hmm?" Shion put his hand on the wall beside his head and leaned down. He moved to whisper in his ear, "Want to taste some more?"

Ko shivered at his cold, sexy voice, and couldn't help but nod. Heat rushed through his body and he felt Shion smirk against his skin.

Are you really acting right now?

Shion's mouth trailed down Ko's neck with light kisses. Ko gasped when he was nipped at the nape of his neck and the trail tenderly moved back up to his jawline.

Because this feels too real.

A free hand moved to the hem of Ko's shirt and trailed up underneath it. Shion nipped and pulled at Ko's lips asking for entrance. Ko reached up to grab at blond hair and he gasped when Shion moved in closer, his leg going in-between Ko's and his arousal became obvious. He brought his other hand down to grab at Ko's ass and pull him in.

Shion pulled away to let Ko recover and he looked to the side. Lady A was right there not far off. Shion's eyes widened. Kyoya was behind her and could see the whole thing, his eyes wider than their usual analytical narrow with a dark blush dusting his cheeks. A thought ran through Shion's mind.

He's the one I should be doing this to.

And suddenly it all felt wrong, but he had to keep this going. He looked the girl in the eye and smirked. Ko leaned up and pecked Shion's lips, he had caught his breath from the previous kiss. Shion licked Ko's bottom lip and nipped on it, asking entrance. Their tongues entered a hot dance, an experienced leader and a beginner trying to keep up, but failing as it got more intense.

Kyoya took out the earbud, the sound of it made him feel… It was just overwhelming. But he still couldn't look away.

Shion pulled away and a trail of saliva connected their mouths. Ko has had enough for now, he couldn't hold himself up. Shion sighed lowly, "This is all you could take from that?" Then he smirked, voice husky, "You won't be able to handle the rest."

They slowly walked to the hotel as Ko regained his bearings. When they entered they went around to the back exit.

"Fitz, wait." He stopped and Shion reached under his shirt's collar. He noticed it earlier when he was… dominating him and took off a bug, crushing it under his foot. "She was able to follow you because you were bugged."

"She bugged me?" Shion nodded in answer.

Kyoya made sure that his voice came out normal, "Limo's out back," he informed Shion over the earpiece. He would look composed, but his mind was going haywire—all of theirs. Ko and Kyoya.

"Alright, time to go." He opened the door. Shion took a deep breath in of the cool night air and felt something cool land on his nose.

Snow.
