As always I only own Lacy!
Enjoy!

Kyoya waited for her to wake up, she had been out for almost a week, her wounds were healing nicely but there would be scars, the one on her neck and face where the worst of them all. The bruising on her cheek was almost healed. He didn't like seeing her there in a hospital bed, she looked so small and so frail.
He had informed everyone in the club what had happened as well as the school board who had already started implementing new security measures. Haruhi spent every day after school waiting for her to wake up, the same goes for the rest of the club. The Host Club was closed until Lacy woke up, no one could concentrate knowing she wasn't awake.
His team had captured the ringleader of the group that had kidnapped Lacy from her father. He was being held in a private prison where he was going to stay until the end of his pathetic life.
He heard a noise and his eyes shot over to Lacy who was opening her eyes slowly. Her violet ones looked around in panic for a second before they landed on him and she smiled.
"Hey."
Her voice was weaker than he would have liked.
"Hey, how are you feeling?"
Kyoya moved to sit next to her after letting a nurse know she was awake.
"I feel like I got hit by a bus."
Lacy muttered with a soft smile.
"That's to be expected."
Kyoya smiled at Lacy, taking one of her hands and gently kissing her knuckles.
"At least you're alive that's all that matters."
Lacy smiled as the doctor walked in. He checked all of her vital signs, and the cuts on her neck and her face before saying they wanted to keep her one more night for observation.
Lacy was happy to be safe and healing, the rest she would figure out later.


Lacy sighed in annoyance as she and Haruhi walked through the school. It had been two weeks since she had returned to school after being kidnapped and everyone was treating her like she was made of fine china and would break at any second. Everyone was looking at her and whispering to each other about her as she walked past them, it was starting to get on her nerves.
"You'd think they would have something better to do."
She muttered while Haruhi sighed.
"It's just for now."
Lacy scoffed.
"It's been weeks and they still aren't over it."
Lacy sighed, she had parted her hair to hide the pink scar that had formed, thankfully she hadn't lost her vision in her eye. The school uniform came up high enough to cover the other pink scar around her neck and covered the scars on her arms.
"I hate that therapist. She isn't helping and all she does it look down at me."
Lacy muttered. Haruhi smiled gently, her cousin had been in a foul mood ever since she learned that she was to spend every day after school with a therapist to talk about her ordeal and to help her cope.
"I don't have a problem. What happened, happened, being his daughter it was only a matter of time."
Lacy insisted as the pair paused outside of the therapist's office.
"You went through a pretty traumatizing event Lacy. It's just a precaution."
Lacy grumbled as she looked at the door before turning and walking away.
"Don't have to much fun at the club without me. I'm not subjecting myself to this anymore."
Haruhi sighed as she followed after her cousin trying to reason with her.
"You need to go to your session. You're going to get in trouble."
Lacy laughed and paused outside of an empty music room.
"I have my own therapy. Go serve your customers. I'll see you when you are finished."
With a smile Lacy entered the room and shut the door behind her causing Haruhi to sigh. Standing at the door for another moment she decided to tell the only person that seemed to be getting through to her cousin lately. Entering Music Room three, Haruhi walked up to Kyoya.
"Yes, Haruhi?"
Kyoya asked, not glancing up from his laptop.
"Lacy is refusing to go to therapy and you're the only one she listens to now."
Kyoya closed his laptop and looked up at her.
"Where is she?"
Haruhi sighed, she hadn't had to deal with Lacy's stubbornness since they were children and she was still living with her father, it was exhausting.
"She's in Music Room one."
Kyoya nodded before standing up and discreetly leaving the club and walked to Music Room one. Not bothering to knock, he walked in and stopped in his tracks as he took in Lacy that had her back turned to him, her head was down and she was facing a floor to ceiling mirror. She had changed out of her school uniform and into a black bralette, that showed the extent of her scars on her arms, stomach, and back. She was also wearing black leggings that fit her like a second layer of skin, her hair was down but pushed away from her face revealing her scars.
Before Kyoya could say anything he heard music playing and listened as Lacy began to sing, her voice was raw from the damage to her throat but she pushed through creating a powerful new sound.

Well, you almost had me fooled
Told me that I was nothing without you

She had placed her hands on the mirror, not yet lifting her head fully.

Oh, but after everything you've done
I can thank you for how strong I have become
'Cause you brought the flames and you put me through hell
I had to learn how to fight for myself
And we both know all the truth I could tell
I'll just say this is "I wish you farewell"

Her head snapped up as she stared down her reflection, her eyes filled with determination.

I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees, prayin'

She paused looking up at the ceiling before turning around and sliding down the mirror till she was sitting on the floor with her knees pulled to her chest. Kyoya didn't know if he should make her aware of his presence or not.

I'm proud of who I am
No more monsters, I can breathe again
And you said that I was done
Well, you were wrong and now the best is yet to come
'Cause I can make it on my own, oh
And I don't need you, I found a strength I've never known
I'll bring thunder, I'll bring rain, oh
When I'm finished, they won't even know your name

She smirked and stood up, facing her reflection again, her eyes meeting Kyoya's with a look of defiance.

You brought the flames and you put me through hell
I had to learn how to fight for myself
And we both know all the truth I could tell
I'll just say this is "I wish you farewell"

I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees, prayin'

Pushing off the mirror, she took a step before starring herself down again.

Ah sometimes, I pray for you at night, oh
Someday, maybe you'll see the light
Whoa oh oh oh, some say, in life, you're gonna get what you give
But some things only God can forgive

Yeah!
I hope you're somewhere prayin', prayin'
I hope your soul is changin', changin'
I hope you find your peace
Falling on your knees, prayin'

Lacy was breathing hard, her eyes closed as the next song started.
Kyoya smiled as he realized this was how she was handling everything that had happened, she had channeled it into something positive.

Been a prisoner of the past
Had a bitterness when I looked back
Was telling everyone it's not that bad
'Til all my shit hit the fan

Lacy's head jerked up again, her body moving with the beat.

I know I'm always like
Telling everybody, "You don't gotta be a victim
Life ain't always fair, but hell is living in resentment
Choose redemption, your happy ending's up to you"

I think it's time to practice what I preach
Exorcise the demons inside me
Whoa, gotta learn to let it go
The past can't haunt me if I don't let it
Live and learn and never forget it
Whoa, gotta learn to let it go

Had a boogieman under my bed
Putting crazy thoughts inside my head
Always whispering, "It's all your fault"
He was telling me, "No, you're not that strong"
I know I'm always like

Telling everybody, "You don't gotta be a victim
Life ain't always fair, but hell is living in resentment
Choose redemption, your happy ending's up to you"
So I think it's time to practice what I preach
Exorcise the demons inside me

Whoa, gotta learn to let it go
The past can't haunt me if I don't let it
Live and learn and never forget it

Whoa, gotta learn to let it go
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Learn to let go, learn to let go
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Learn to let go, learn to let go

Lacy stomped her foot.

I'm done reliving my bad decisions
I see now maybe there's a reason
Why, I, I, I, I, I, I been through hell and back
Yeah, honestly, it's what made me who I am
Holding on to wasted time

Gotta learn to let go in life
So I think it's time to practice what I preach
Exorcise the demons inside me
Whoa, gotta learn to let it go
The past can't haunt me if I don't let it
Live and learn and never forget it
Whoa, gotta learn to let it go

Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Learn to let go, learn to let go
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Hey-eh-eh-eh, yeah
Learn to let go, learn to let go

Lacy smiled as she turned to look at Kyoya.
"I'm not going back to therapy. I don't need it."
With a nod Kyoya walked over and placed his hands on her hips, smiling down at her as she looked up at him.
"You really are quite the little warrior."
Lacy laughed a little.
"All survivors are warriors."
Kyoya nodded before bending down and kissing Lacy causing her to sigh and wrap her arms around his neck.
For a moment the world stood still and it was just the two of them.
