Whee…chapter 3!

Soo. School has started and I won't be able to write as much. I could probably write on Saturdays so yeah. Sorry.

Anyways, where did we leave off? Oh right. So Kyouya is in the apartment now, and he's freaked. Okie.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything except OCs.

Kyouya's PoV

I peer inside and my eyes widen in fear…

Mieko's arms are tied behind her back, and the man is on top of her. Although she doesn't look very worried, she flinches every time the man touches her. I close my eyes and hear Mieko's voice.

"Kyouya? What are you doing here?"

My eyes widen at the disregard in her voice. I open the door and walk inside. The guy gets off of her and sprints for the door. She glares at the fleeing man and sits up. I listen to hear curse for a bit then I sit down next to her.

"What the hell was that?"

Mieko turns to me with a small smile on her face.

"One of my more desperate clients."

"What! It looked like he was about to r-"

"Look, I'm used to it by now. Besides, it's not like I can't take care of myself. This has happened before. Guys threaten me a lot, girls just…well, they don't really do anything."

"Still-"

"Oh! I just remembered. I thought of someone you might like."

I stare at her like she's crazy and sigh.

"When did you think of that…?"

"When I was under what's-his-face."

"I still can't believe you would actually agree to help someone like that."

"Well, I'm a little iffy right now on finances. I mean financially speaking, I'm okay…but I do owe some money here and there. Plus, my career is kind of going down hill…but, enough about me. Let's go meet the woman I was talking about!"

"Huh?"

"I'll just call her, and you two can go to dinner. Of course I'll be tagging along for the first time, but yeah."

"Are you serious?"

"What?"

I sigh. "Never mind."

"Okay then! Let me call her."

Mieko dials a number and has a brief conversation with the woman on the other line. I look around her room for little and when they stop talking, Mieko grabs my arm and drags me out of her apartment.

We arrive at an extravagant restaurant and Mieko goes up to make a reservation. She talks to the hostess for a minute and laughs. She motions for me to come over.

"Oh! Is this your newest?"

"Yes he is."

"Wow. You won't be keeping him for long. I can tell."

"I'm trying to get rid of him today. Why else would I be here Charlene? You know I take all my first-time clients here."

"True. Well, the table should be ready for you anytime. Just holler and I'll get it for you."

"Thanks Charlene."

As I listen to the conversation, I look around the place. Everything was neat and elegant. I look towards the door and I see someone I haven't in years…

"Haruhi!"

Mieko turns toward me and raises her eyebrow.

"You know her?"

I nod and I see her turn to Haruhi. She waves and Haruhi smiles. She walks over to us and says her greetings.

"So Kyouya, I guess your little blind date isn't so blind after all!"

"You mean…" I begin.

"I'm his date?" Haruhi finishes.

"Aww. You two finish each other's sentences already. I'm so happy!" Mieko exclaims.

"…"

"…"

"What? Okay…so…I'll be going over there now…"

Mieko leaves the two of us alone and I stare after her. I see her walk out the door to greet a man. They hug and exchange compliments, but what the man did next was most surprising. He held her close to him and kissed her.

'I never thought that Mieko had a boyfri-'

"Kyouya?" Haruhi asks.

I turn back to look over at her and smile.

"Well this is a surprise. Who would have thought that you needed help in your love life?" I tell Haruhi.

She laughs and replies, "My friend signed me up. I've been so busy with work that…well, I don't have any time. She said I needed a break from everything."

"Interesting. As for me I-"

"Haruhi! This is him. This is Datin." Mieko comes back dragging a man maybe a year or two older then her. His brown hair and deep blue eyes shined with brilliance.

Haruhi turned towards her and smiled. The man, Datin, blushed and shook Haruhi's hand, mine in turn. When we were all done with the introductions, Datin stood closely to Mieko holding her waist.

Conversation started, but all I could do was stare at Datin's hand creeping up Mieko's shirt. It hurt me to see Mieko smile so brightly for a reason unknown to me. I start to think, but snap out of it as Mieko grabs my hand and makes me hold Haruhi's hand. She steps back grinning and starts to giggle.

"You're so cute when you laugh like that." Datin tells Mieko.

She turns to him and kisses his cheek. "I know."

I frown slightly and continue to hold Haruhi's hand. What I didn't notice was that Haruhi saw me frown, and she looked down tightening her grip on me. I look over at her and she looks back at me smiling. I smile back knowing that Haruhi knew. I logically think that I'm only jealous because Mieko is the only other girl, besides Haruhi, that I've been close too. I can't really count the girls during my years at the host club. If Haruhi was with someone else, and Mieko was standing besides me, I would be jealous of the man standing besides Haruhi. I kept telling myself this and made sure I believed it.

"Your table is ready." Mieko tells us. She smiles at me knowing nothing at all. I smile back and take Haruhi to the table. The waitress gives us our menus and Haruhi sets hers down.

"Kyouya…"

I look up at her and I see her frowning.

"Yes?"

"I can tell you don't want to be here…at least, not with me."

My eyes widen and my mouth opens slightly.

"That's…that's not true Haruhi. I'm well, a little surprised that I'm here with you. But I'm glad. I've been meaning to see you anyways. I know you've been busy and I have been too, but I mean, we are friends and…"

"Kyouya, you don't have to lie."

"I'm not." I tell her, looking her straight in the eye. "I'm not."

Haruhi sighs and smiles, then looks over at Mieko and Datin. The two are now talking and Mieko's smile brightens even more. I look over and see Mieko staring at us. She grins and waves at us. Haruhi waves back and I just nod my head.

Haruhi and I order our food and converse about old times and what's going on now. I really do enjoy myself, and don't think about Mieko at all. When we are finished with our meal, I pay and we go take a walk in the park.

"You actually slept with Mieko?" Haruhi asks surprised.

"I didn't know her at the time and well, I was drunk. I suppose she was too since she forgot some of her stuff at my place."

"It must have been awkward seeing her in Japan."

"Well…it was, I kind of was taken back finding out that she is supposedly a famous matchmaker…who has a boyfriend."

"Did you know she was dating someone?"

"Not at the time."

"Well, it's not your fault I guess. If you didn't know…"

I smile at Haruhi and a wind passes by. She shivers slightly and I put my arm around her. She looks up at me and smiles, shifting in a more comfortable position. We walk for a while longer and we finally get to Haruhi's place. The two of us stop at her door, like any date would end, and she opens her door.

"I had a great time Kyouya. And I'm glad I got to see you again."

I smile at her and she waves before walking in. Before she can get in, I grab her arm and kiss her fully on the lips. When I let go I smirk at the sight in front of me. She stumbles slightly and grabs onto the doorframe. I laugh slightly and she almost falls to the ground. I catch her and whisper in her ear, "I didn't know I had this kind of effect on you."

She looks up at me and smiles lightly. Haruhi stands up and reestablishes her footing.

"Really Kyouya, I had a GREAT time. But I have to get up early tomorrow. I'll call you later, okay?"

"Sure."

I leave and go back to the park to take a shortcut. As I keep walking, I think about Haruhi until I see something…or someone familiar. There are two people there…ah, and I see that it's two very important people.

"Kyouya! What are you doing out so late?" Kitami asks me.

Mori waves at me and wraps his arm around Kitami.

"I just dropped someone off. I just decided to walk home."

"Oh, well, have you seen Mieko lately? I can't seem to find her anywhere."

"She was with her boyfriend…Datin was it?"

"Well, I called him and he said she left his place around 8 and it's 11 now. And she hasn't called me. I'm kind of worried. If you see her, tell her I'm looking for her will you?"

"No problem."

"Thanks Kyouya."

Mori and Kitami leave, while I start to worry about Mieko.

'Where is she…?'
