Unrequited Love
Chapter 14: Preparations
"When is classes going to start dearest?" her father asked.
"Next week" she told him as she washed their dishes.
"So soon, you won't be here anymore" he whined.
"Dad, we hardly see each other" she stated. Her cross-dressing father began to whine some more.
Then a knock interrupted their conversation. Haruhi paused and looked at her dad.
"I'll get it" she said walking away from her emotional father.
"Haruhi!" a loud familiar voice exclaimed from the moment she opened the door.
"Naru Yamato!" she replied smiling at her friend. "How are you and.."her smile faded as her friend invited herself in. "And why are you here?"
"Because..."she paused and noticed someone peeking at them.
"Oh, I'm sorry" Naru replied as she spotted a woman looking at them.
"Oh, meet my..."Haruhi sighed, "My dad"
"EH? Your..your.." her face turned white.
"Hello, are you Haruhi's friend? I'm Ranka" he said waving at her.
Naru smiled. Haruhi's father looked like a nice person. "I'm Yamato Naru"
"She's so cute" his father gushed, "I'll leave you two girls to chat" he said and darted towards his room.
Naru laughed, "I love your dad, even though he dresses like that"
"Yeah" she said as they sat down in their small living room. "What brings you here?"
"Well.."she said, "before that how was your summer break?"
"I was working most of the time" Haruhi replied. "What about you?"
"I went to Venice" she said, "It's really nice there"
"Really? That's nice to hear and yeah..what brings you here?"
"Oh.."Naru shifted, "Its Tamaki's wedding"

Unknown to the two, Ranka was busy listening to their conversation. Suddenly his phone rang.
"Yes?"
"Is she there?"
"Yes, she's here..."
"Good. I hope she convinces her.." the voice in the other line replied.
Ranka frowned, "is this even a good idea?" he replied.
"Trust me, I know my ways"

"Senpai's wedding? When is it?" she asked. It has been awhile since she last saw them. That day..
"At the beginning of Autumn.."Naru replied.
"Ah, an Autumn Wedding" she said. Naru looked at Haruhi closely. "Your taking this really lightly.."
Haruhi shrugged her shoulders. "Why? Is there anything wrong with that?"
Naru stared at her friend. "Are you serious? You don't even like care?"
Haruhi sighed. "I'm done with all those things..but I do want Tamaki senpai to be happy"
Naru nodded, her eyes sparkling. "then there is hope!"
"Huh?"
She took her hand. "Let's go.."
"Eh? Where?"
"Your going to live with me in my house for the time being" she said.
"Eh? Why?"
"You wanted Tamaki senpai to be happy? So help out on the preparations" she said.
Haruhi stood up and released her hand. "Oh..sure..but do I have to stay in your house?"
"I would love to have company" Naru replied with a smile. Haruhi thought for a second. "All right if it makes you happy, but I gotta go and pack my stuf---"she stopped as Ranka got out of his room with a suitcase in his hand.
"Here you go my dear" he said handing the suitcase to her daughter. Haruhi narrowed her gaze. "Were you listening to our conversation?"
"Ah.."he shook his head. "Don't mind me!" he replied gleefully and pushed Naru and Haruhi out. "Send my best regards to that blondie boy who has a huge crush on you.."
"Dad!" she exclaimed as they stood outside.
"Take care Haruhi!" he replied and closed the door.
Haruhi rolled her eyes. "My dad, the drama queen"
Naru chuckled and led her to her vehicle.
"This is going to be fun!" Naru exclaimed happily.
Haruhi gave her a look. "You like weddings don't you?"
She nodded. "Very much"
"But I thought you hated Yuki?" Haruhi asked in a flat voice. Naru got and Haruhi followed.
"Yeah, I do but I don't hate Tamaki" she said.
"Oh yeah, right forgot about that" Haruhi replied folding his arms.
"But what your dad said back.."she said and winked, "I kinda noticed it.."
That made Haruhi blinked back and blushed. "Oh..that's just some stupid infatuation.."
"You mean your dad knows the Host Club?" she asked in surprised.
Haruhi nodded. "Yeah, they all visited my home before"
"WOW! Lucky!" she gushed.
Haruhi looked at Naru. "Don't this all seem weird to you?"
"Weird? Well..for one thing you looked pretty close to the boys.."she said.
"That's the point. You wanna know why?"
"You mean there's a reason?"
Haruhi nodded and looked straight ahead. "Yes, I'll tell you when the time comes"

Haruhi spent the last remaining days in Naru's mansion. Her parents were really nice people, plus she had this adorable young brother.
"Haruhi-chan, you can stay here as long as you like" Mrs. Yamato replied.
"Yeah..." Haruhi shifted. She loved their family but she can't possibly stay here for free.
"At least until the wedding" Naru replied.
"Anyway what preparations are we suppose to do?" she asked as they settled in her room.
"Kyouya is planning it" she said sitting in her bed. "He wants to meet up with you tomorrow"
"Eh? Me? Why?" she asked.
Naru shrugged her shoulders. "I'll be helping the twins with the wardrobe"
"And I have to report to Kyouya for my assignment?"she said dryly.
"Precisely" she said and patted her shoulder. "Get some sleep! Good night!"
'oh bother'
-------------------------------------0o0
"I'm suppose to meet him here?" Haruhi muttered looking around Ouran University. The school wasn't going to open for a couple of days.
"Haruhi" Kyouya called from afar. He was wearing long white sleeves and expensive pants.
"What's up Kyouya senpai?" she asked.
"Follow me.."he said. They entered the empty school building and walked towards the third floor.
He entered an empty room, actually it looked like an office.
"Have a seat" he said as he rummaged around the shelves. Haruhi sat down and looked at him. "What's going on?"
He threw a notebook and a pen in the table.
"Write down Yuki's wedding vows. She's busy so you do it" he said plainly.
