lumigo akvo9504: Glad you liked it, I spent all my weekend trying to finish it hahaha. And don't worry about the mystery group, you'll find about them really soon. And even if you know there is a surprise, you don't know what kind of surprise is it ;)

McKmaster25: Hey! Is the first time I see you here, so first of all, hello! Secondly, I'm sorry to disappoint, but it will take a while for the Host Club to figure it out. And as for Mitsukuni's reaction... well, I can really tell you that, can't I? It would ruin all the fun!

Caibb: Yaasss, little Nagisa's growing up! *wipes out a tear*. And we'll see about the attackers *insert malevolent laugher*.

So... I disappeared, but I have a reason. My school has this 'service programs' where we go and help people that doesn't have the same resources we have. I live in Chile, and in 2016 there was this huge fire in one of Valparaiso's hills. It destroyed a lot of houses and neighbourhoods, and still three years later, it's in poor condition. So last week I spent Wednesday, Thursday and Friday there, painting houses and cleaning up debris, plating trees and stuff. So I wasn't able to even touch my computer, as I live in Santiago and I was out of town, until Saturday, when I had to do this project I'm still working on. So I'm really sorry, but I don't regret it. If you get the chance to do it, whenever you are, don't waste it, because it's a beautiful experience.

That's all, enjoy the chapter.

When Mitsukuni saw that characteristic baby blue hair at the estate, he swore he was about to cry out of joy. The moment the knife had killed a man, Mitsukuni was dragged by Takashi towards their fellow hosts, ignoring his kicks and cries, as he was trying to get to Nagisa and Chika.

'They are going to be fine, Mitsukuni.' even when he said so, the blond senior wasn't totally buying it. What if Chika got hurt? What if Nagisa got hurt? He needed to be with them, not away from them!

But Takashi wouldn't let him. Instead, he took him inside his house, where his mother was already waiting for them. Security was on high alert, and while half of their men were helping with the evacuation, the other half was guarding the estate. Every single gunshot Mitsukuni heard was an anguish trigger. He didn't want any of the people he loved to get hurt. His father wasn't with them either, and Mitsukuni figured he stayed to make sure Chika was alright, which was a bit of a relieve.

And then he didn't hear anything. No more cries of pain, no more gunshots, no more anything. Just silence.

He didn't want to think about the worse, but his mind flew towards that path quickly. His friends were looking at him, worried. Mitsukuni didn't care that he was making them feel that way. He just wanted to know if everything was alright, if everyone was safe. If she was safe.

So, when Nagisa walked inside the living room sighing in relieve at all the familiar faces, Mitsukuni actually froze a bit, shocked. In the mean time, the other people present in the room gathered around her to hug her and ask if she was alright. But when Mitsukuni got back to his senses, he wasted no time before he was running towards her, hugging her with all his strength. That is, until he heard her yelp of pain.

The blond boy frowned, breaking apart to see her face. Then he felt that thick, hot substance with his fingers. Unfortunately, it was somewhat of a familiar thing to him. So when he saw all that blood dripping from the wound in Nagisa's shoulder, all he could do was hiss out a curse.

"Shit! Nagisa, why are you still standing? Kami, is that a bullet wound?!" his usual childish tone was nowhere to be found, and instead, he was near panicking. Trembling a bit at the sight of the girl he loved bleeding so much, Mitsukuni guided her to the nearest couch, where he sat her carefully. He shut her up when she started to blab about getting the couch stained and something like that. Didn't she know her life was more important?

"I'm fine, it's just a bit of blood, that's all..." she mumbled, but a single stare from Mitsukuni told her now it was not the time.

"Nagisa, mon chéri! Don't say that!" of course Tamaki was panicking as well. The French boy was hovering all over her, asking if she needed anything, and if she felt alright. Mitsukuni, who had rushed to get a medical kit, pushed him away the moment he got back, sitting next to Nagisa so he could stitch and patch.

"I'm going to ask all of you to leave," he said, pulling out a needle and surgical thread. Nagisa grimaced. That was going to hurt. A lot.

The twins and Tamaki were about to argue, but between Takashi, Haruhi and Kyoya they managed to get them out, and the three followed suit. Kasuki smiled slightly, pressing her lips on Nagisa's forehead in a butterfly kiss before getting out as well. They were alone now.

Mitsukuni didn't say anything for awhile, threading the thread, and then setting it aside to clean the wound.

"This is gonna hurt, Nagisa, but it'll pass soon, okay?" he talked softly, looking at Nagisa in the eyes, and she nodded. She already knew how much it hurt. She was ready.

Of course, that changed when Mitsukuni actually started to clean the wound.

Hell, she was not ready! At all!

The disinfectant burned in her skin, and Nagisa couldn't restrain the cry of pain that escaped her lips, even as she clenched her teeth. Mitsukuni tried to confort her, hushing encouraging words, saying that he was almost done, even when he had still to look at the other side of her shoulder. That was definitely going to leave a scar.

"It's okay, I'm almost done with this side, don't worry. The bullet came out, right?" he asked, finishing up the front of the wound. For the moment, he put a bandage on, so she wouldn't loose any more blood, and the open flesh wouldn't be exposed to the contaminated air.

"Y-yeah," Nagisa breathed out, her voice still shaking from the pain. "Do it now, Honey," she say, teeth greeted. The senior looked at her face before getting another piece of cotton full of disinfectant.

When he was done, he decided to patch it again.

"Hey," the bluenette looked at him. "I need to sew the wound. I can get morphine or anesthesia, but it may take a while. Do you want me to sew you without it?" she thought about it, before nodding.

"Just do it," Mitsukuni looked doubtful, but sighed and grabbed the needle to disinfect it. "Chika and your father are alright. They are at the dojo. Thought you would want to know," she said, and something inside him just deflated.

"They... they're not hurt, right?" he asked, his voice small. Nagisa was enough, Mitsukuni didn't know if he could handle more than one of his loved ones in pain.

"Chika's a bit shaken up, but besides that, they're alright," she smiled a bit. "Now do it before I change my mind, Honey."

Even in a house with soundproof walls, the screams inside the room were heard by everyone on the estate.

"Karma told me what happened. Is your shoulder alright?" Karasuma-sensei kept the stoic face, but Nagisa knew he was worried. He just had a hard time showing it, like he usually had with emotions as a whole.

"Yeah, Honey sewed it shut and then patched it. He said it would take a bit for the wound to close, but you know I heal fast. Maybe a week or so, and I'll be a as good as new," Nagisa said with a small smile.

Tadaomi looked at her, not believing her for a single second, but decided to leave that fight for a future tume. There were other matter at hands that took precedent, especially when Nagisa wasn't leaving for a field assignment anytime soon either way.

"Alright, I'll believe you. But if I feel you're pushing yourself too hard, I'll report it, and you'll be suspended from training until you are better for real," he warned her, and the girl nodded. "Now, tell me what happened," and so, Nagisa told him.

"Well, I was sparring with Chika-kun, I mean, Haninozuka Yasuchika, and suddenly, a knife intended to probably kill me flew across the room, killing a man in the audience. Then the chaos started," Nagisa told him about everyone freaking out, the gunshots, and how she got Chika and her friends to secured rooms before going out herself, and how she took down the attackers. "I didn't kill anyone, as I was following orders from Haninozuka-san. He wanted them alive. But I think I may have paralyzed one or two of them, I'm not sure yet. Can I collect my things? I used some of Korosensei's needles and my knives. The bullet came from a gun in possession of the Haninozukas."

Karasuma-sensei rolled his eyes, amused.

"In a moment. We're still trying to ID these guys, but for now, and taking into consideration you didn't kill anyone, and your contract with the Haninozukas, you won't have to go to the Ministry for a mayor debriefing. When I have more information, I'll lend it to you. I guess Haninozuka-san want's to know too, so you have permission to tell him everything you find in the investigation unless said otherwise," with that, Nagisa supposed she could get her weapons, so she said goodbye and entered the dojo.

Her friends were nowhere to be found, probably Karasuma-sensei's doing, but Yorihisa was there, looking at his dojo.

"Where's Chika-kun?" Nagisa didn't want him to see that. He was still innocent, still hadn't been tainted by the darkness of the world. He didn't need to see it.

"I sent him outside. He was escorted to the estate," answered Yorihisa, before turning to face her. "An amazing job. No deaths, and just one of them in critical condition. I'm impressed," he was probably thinking she wouldn't be able to contain her bloodlust and would end up killing everyone. Which by the way, rude. Nagisa was no amatheur, she could control herself.

"Thanks... I think," Nagisa didn't know if that was something to be thankful for, but it was her job, after all. "Karasuma-sensei told me my things were in here..." Haninozuka-san pointed a corner of the room, where her two needles and her knifes were waiting for her. The bluenette quickly picked them up, ignoring the blood as she pocketed them back to where they were.

While she passed by Yorihisa, though, thinking he may had wanted to be left alone, he stopped her.

"The Haninozukas are indebted to you, Nagisa-san," and then he bowed respectfully.

Nagisa opened her eyes widely. That... was not something she was expecting. At all.

"You... you don't need to b-bow, Haninozuka-san. It was my job, I was just fulfilling it," she said, blushing deeply as he stood straight, smiling slightly. He considered her for a moment before offering her an accepting nod.

"I was right about you, Nagisa-san," and then he left, leaving Nagisa alone.

What had just happened now?

When Nagisa came back to the estate, all the hosts were gone, as they were only there to make sure she was alright, and Mori-senpai was meditating with Satoshi and Chika, getting them to calm down a little. Her middle school classmates had left, too. They didn't want to, but Karasuma-sensei insisted. And so, the only visitor at the Haninozuka's estate was Nagisa.

Honey was waiting for her at the door, looking at her shoulder first to make sure the wound hadn't reopened, and then at the new blood strains splattered on her white gear. He didn't ask, though, something Nagisa was grateful for. She didn't know if she would be able to tell him a convincing lie about it if he had, and she didn't like to lie to him in the first place.

Honey took her hand with his own and started walking, guiding her through his house. Nagisa wasn't sure she could find the way out herself, actually. It was huge!

They stopped after a while in front of a white door, with no decorations of any sort. Honey opened it, motioning her to walk in. Nagisa figured out it was his bedroom the moment she put a step into the room.

It was far more... bare that what she had imagined. It was painted of a cream color, with grey decor. The bedspread was grey and the cushions had tonalities accord it. The only decorations were the wall of trophys and the stuffed animals, plus a pink blanket on the bed. The empty plate with a fork on the desk screamed 'Honey', though, and Nagisa had to fight the smile that wanted to make it to her face.

"Honey? Why are we...?" she wasn't able to finish, because Honey then closed the door behind him, and the thought of them being alone in his room made Nagisa's brain short circuit for a moment.

"I wanted to talk to you about something," his voice, even if not cheery and bubbly, was small, and Nagisa could even dare to say shy. What was going on?

Honey guided her to his bed, where they both sat, front to front. Half of Nagisa's mind was thinking about how big the bed was, and how it could fit at least four people comfortably. The other one was thinking of the things they could do there, plus the soundproof walls...

'Focus, Nagisa! Not the time right now!' she chasticed herself before getting back to the conversation.

"Okay... what is it?" she tilted her head, in a way that Mitsukuni thought was adorable. She was adorable. And cute. And hot. And sexy. And she was in his room, in his bed, and no one was near—

'Not now Mitsukuni!' oh right, he had something he wanted to say to her.

"I don't want you to do that again," he said, and Nagisa frowned. What was he talking about? "You stayed at the dojo, and you put yourself in danger for no reason. I know you're training to be a field agent, but that's the thing: you are training. I... I don't want to think about all that could have gone wrong," his voice was merely a whisper, haunted by the mere thought of Nagisa in harms way, shattered at the thought of losing her.

Nagisa's expression softened. Honey was just worried, and he had reasons. He didn't know she had been cleared long ago, and that she had a contract with his family that bounded her to protect them.

"Honey—"

"What if it hadn't been just your shoulder? What if you had been hit somewhere else? What... what if you had died?" Mitsukuni could feel his eyes watering with his words, but he couldn't help it. Nagisa was the love of his life, even if they hadn't known each other for long, he was sure she was the one for him. There was no way in living hell he was about to just let her put herself in danger again. Especially when he knew the Ministry hadn't cleared her yet.

"Hey, don't worry, alright? I'm fine," Nagisa smiled a bit, hugging him. She was now officially smaller than him, but not by much, so she was able to rest her chin in Honey's shoulder, making sure not to hurt her own shoulder with her movements. "I... there's a lot I need to explain, Honey, but it's not the moment yet. But you need to know I wouldn't do anything that I'm not sure I can manage, alright?" she looked at him, and slowly, he nodded, still crying silently. She hugged him again, whispering softly in his ear. "It's going to be okay, you'll see. Nothing happened, and nothing will happen."

Finally, Mitsukuni hugged her back, keeping her close to him, making sure not to hurt her shoulder. His face was buried in Nagisa's hair, letting him smell her sweet and soft shampoo. Strawberry and mint. It suited her.

That day, laying together in Mitsukuni's bed, enjoying the confortable silence between them, they both made a promise. They wouldn't let the other get hurt.

'Whatever it takes.'

St. Valentine's Day. Initially, it was the commemoration for a rebellious act against the Emperor of Rome, but now it was just the special day when girls and boys got to confess their feelings for someone, and in Ouran Academy, that was almost a sacred rule.

That was in five days, and Nagisa already wanted to snap the head out of pretty much all the high school girls in Ouran. Why were they so close to him? Didn't they know of that thing called personal space? Apparently not.

Of course, as a host, Nagisa herself received a lot of questions about which chocolate were her favorite, and Nagisa would always say the same:

"Well, I like mint chocolate, but whatever you girls want to give me will make me happy," and then all the girls would swoon with her gentle smile.

But that didn't matter to Nagisa. No, her attention was focused on another thing. Why was Honey a host? Nagisa didn't want any of those shady girls with hidden intentions to give him chocolate, that was probably filled with love potion, sponsored by the Dark Magic Club. It was no fair!

So now, Nagisa was glaring at Honey who, oblivious of the reaction he was causing, was happily answering to the girls that he liked all chocolates, as long as it was from them. She hated him.

'Nah, you don't.' her conscience wasn't helping at all.

"Honey-senpai? It's everything okay?" Nagisa's gaze fell on Honey, who was touching his chin, nodding slightly. What was he—?

Mori-senpai was faster than any of the people in the room could have predicted. Mere seconds after noticing his cousin's slight discomfort, Mori-senpai was practically judo-flipping him onto the couch, forcing Honey to let him see inside his mouth. It was, sadly, a cavity.

"Tamaki," Mori-senpai didn't need to say anything more. As Nagisa stood up and walked towards Honey, who had tears in his eyes, Tamaki nodded.

"I see... I'll take care of everything," Tamaki walked over to the center of the club room, and cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. "Okay... as Honey-senpai has a cavity, he's prohibited of eating sweets," Honey's eyes widened. "And we will be supporting him, so for this year, there will be no sweets allowed for Valentine's day, as there will be no snacks allowed inside the club room until Honey-senpai's cavity is fixed."

"No! It's alright, it doesn't hurt I swear!" but Honey's claims were paid no mind, and as Nagisa sat down besides him, Mori-senpai took his cake away. "N-ne... Takashi..."

"They are prohibited," and he walked away, leaving a crying Honey with Nagisa, who was trying to calm him down.

'Poor Honey... well, at least those shady girls won't be able to poison him with love potion.'

"If I have to be honest, I think Mori's being to harsh on him." Nagisa was on the phone, talking with Karma. "I mean, it's just a cavity, it's not like he's going to die if he eats something sweet."

"Why hasn't he come to the dentist?" the redhead asked from the other side of the line, looking at his advanced math homework, trying to figure out how to do it. He refused to ask Asano for help, he didn't want to give him the satisfaction. Even when he nicely said he could ask for help if he needed it. Karma would not lose to that Second Place-kun, no way.

"Some weird Haninozuka rule, he can't go to the doctor unless it's real bad or some nonsense like that. I know, it's stupid," Nagisa rolled her eyes, She didn't understand that rule, but well, it was the Haninozukas, they were weird that way. "But, yesterday Mori took Honey's bag, and threw all his sweets to the trash can, handing him a sheet with photographs of sweets and stuff. I had to stay with him at the club room for an hour before opening to make him stop crying!" it wasn't like it bothered her to spend time with Honey, but she thought his cousin was going too far. "If that cavity doesn't heal soon, I'll take him to the dentist myself."

Karma laughed, smirking in victory as he understood the problem.

"Alright, you do whatever you want. See you soon, probably will crash at your bed." Nagisa groaned, because she knew he meant to tell her he would literally sleep on her bed. Asshole.

"Bye, tell Shuu I love him, and that you love him too!" then Karma hung up the phone, flustered. Nagisa laughed. She never got bored of it.

The blue haired girl was currently walking by the gardens, near the roses' labyrinth. She had a free period before club hours, and didn't want to spend it inside the school. Everyone was talking about 'poor Honey-senpai, he can't eat sweets. I wanted to give him a box of chocolates for St. Valentine's Day.'

'No, bitch, you can't do that, he has a cavity! And anyways, he doesn't love you, you snobbish witch!'

Yeah, so maybe Nagisa was still a bit mad about the issue.

That was, even if Nagisa was never going to admit it to anyone besides herself, the actual reason for why she wasn't with her friends in the club room, even if she wasn't the only one with a free period. She was sick of all those girls gazing at Honey, wishing he was feeling better for St. Valentine's so they could give him a box of chocolates.

They didn't know him, it wasn't love! It was just a crush, something ephemeral, and it would pass. He was just the handsome and pretty, cute boy of the school. At least, that was Honey for them. But Nagisa... she knew, it wasn't just a teenage crush.

And it broke her heart, because she knew too, that Honey would never love her back.

That didn't mean she was going to stop trying. She wouldn't go down without a fight.

With those thoughts, Nagisa stood up and began her walk back to the club room, where the hosts were waiting for her so they could open up for the evening. Honey was sulking in his designated area, just like he had been doing since that fateful moment when his cousin had forbidden him from all sweets. Nagisa, seeing him all alone, decided to sit with him, if only to try to get him to smile.

"Hey Honey. How are you doing?" she half smiled, trying hard not to hug him when he showed her his teary eyes.

"Nagisa... I'm really feeling alright, you know? And Takashi's not listening. Do you think... well, could you...?" he was fidgeting, looking down, trying to ask for something. Nagisa knew what. And she didn't like it one bit.

"Honey, you're trying to use me to get sweets?" her tone was murderous, and she even let a bit of bloodlust leak of her armor. Mitsukuni flinched, feeling it, but not knowing exactly what it was.

"Nagisa, I-I—"

"I don't want to hear it," the blue haired girl stood up, looking hurt. "And I really thought you actually cared for something more than cake," and with that, she left, deciding to sit besides Tamaki and Kyoya, who were doing homework before club hours got started.

Looking from afar, Mitsukuni cursed in his head. He had messed it all up, hadn't he? Dammit! And now Nagisa was mad at him... shit.

It was the third day of the 'Honey-senpai's sweets restriction', and things were getting real bad. Nagisa wasn't talking to Mitsukuni, Takashi was distant from him too, and the blond senior was crankier than ever. The rest of the Host Club was waiting, tense and hoping nothing too bad would happen.

At the moment, all the hosts were at the Music Room #3, except from Takashi, who was still at the Kendo Club. That day there were no club hours, and they were just waiting for Takashi. Normally, they would study, but the present situation made it imposible, so they were just hopping for the better. Nagisa was the best option to calm the senior down, but she was mad at him too, so she wasn't willing to help. 'Let him to get better on his own, he doesn't deserve the help'.

'Harsh.' was the thought of the hosts, watching as their blue haired friend opened a book to start reading, not even glancing at Mitsukuni, fuming near the door. She didn't look up when he opened the door, and saw all the sweets were gone. She didn't either, when Mitsukuni bit Tamaki's hand, nor when Takashi appeared.

She only glanced, when Mitsukuni said the words.

"That's it! I hate you Takashi!" and then, with tears in his eyes, he left the room, leaving a dumbfound Takashi on the floor.

Tamaki attempted to follow him, but Nagisa was faster. When everybody noticed, she was already out of the room.

Mitsukuni was already halfway out of the corridor, but Nagisa's voice had a powerful effect on him. So when she yelled, he stopped.

"Honey, wait!" almost like he had been attacked by Medusa, Mitsukuni froze. He couldn't believe it. Nagisa was talking to him? Was it real? Apparently, it was, because when he turned around, he saw Nagisa's beautiful hair, right next to him.

"Nagisa..." he couldn't say anything else. He had a lump in his throat. After Nagisa left, and he had arrived at his house, Mitsukuni cried. He cried a lot. Takashi wasn't there to comfort him either. His life seemed like it was falling to pieces, and he didn't know what to do. But now... now Nagisa was talking to him.

And then Nagisa opened her mouth.

"What's wrong with you, Haninozuka Mitsukuni?!" that was the first time she used his full name, and Mitsukuni felt taken aback. Her eyes were glowing, full of anger and something more he couldn't describe quite well. He didn't say anything. "You're acting like a snob, selfish brat, only looking at yourself! Do you know how hurtful those words are to Mori? He's heart just broke! And yesterday... you didn't care about my feelings, you didn't think for a second how I would feel when you just tried to manipulate me into giving you something sweet," her eyes were starting to tear a bit, the anger in her tone vanishing a little to reveal her hurt. Mitsukuni could see now, that it was sadness, pain, what was in Nagisa's eyes. And it hurt him so bad, because it was him who did that to her, he was the one to put the sadness there.

"I'm sorry..." it was just a whisper, but Nagisa could hear. "I'm so sorry, Nagisa!" and he started crying again, hugging her with all his strength. He let her go, though, when he heard the small hiss coming from Nagisa. Her shoulder. "Oh shit, Nagisa are you alright?! Oh Kami I messed up again, didn't I? We need to get you to the nurse's office so they can get a better look at it, and maybe send you to the hospital! I'm sure the Ooroti's will treat you alright..." at that point, Nagisa was sweatdropping. It was just a little squeeze, it wasn't as if she was going to die...

"Hey! I'm alright, don't worry. You just pressed a little hard, but it's okay, I swear," she didn't want to go to the nurse's office. Honey had forced her to go three times since the tournament. Three times! And that happened like, a week ago! If Nagisa needed to go to the nurse's office because of her shoulder again, she was going to get really mad. "But I think you should listen to what they have to say," she pointed the club room, and slowly, after making sure Nagisa was truly alright, Mitsukuni walked closer to the door, so he could listen to what was happening inside.

Nagisa smiled softly, placing herself at his side, waiting for him to get it. She knew, she found out when Mori rejected that girl. Maybe for others it would have been normal, but Nagisa knew better. And so, she asked. And Mori answered. That didn't stop her from hitting him when he told her, because boy it was a stupid reason, but she understood... more or less.

Ten days later, and Nagisa was smiling again. It was a happy day, after all. St. Valentine's Day had finally passed, and no girl had the chance of giving Honey a box of chocolates! Tamaki was thinking about doing it the 'French way', but Nagisa convinced him not to, specially because there wasn't really a 'French way' at all. So, that meant Honey wouldn't get poisoned by snobbish girls with love potions.

That didn't mean, however, that Nagisa couldn't either.

So now the girl was sitting at Honey's designated table. Club hours were over, and everybody was leaving. Mori was waiting for them at the other side of the room, probably because he felt Nagisa had something important to say. Apart from them, the only other person in the room was Kyoya, who always stayed late to fix some papers. Sometimes, Nagisa would help, but today she was a woman on a mission. Budget could wait until tomorrow.

"Nagisa?" she came back to reality when Honey called her name. His cavity had fully recovered, and just in time, because Nagisa had threatened Mori of kidnapping his cousin and taking him to the dentist if he didn't get any better soon. Let's just say, Takashi almost fainted when he heard the word 'kidnapping', and looked cautiously at Nagisa for the rest of the day.

"Huh? Oh right, I was going to say something..." she laughed nervously, and Mitsukuni smiled, thinking she was cute when she was nervous. Nagisa then took something out of her bag, straightening up the bow. "Well... since you couldn't get anything for Valentine's Day, I thought... I mean, you don't have to accept it or anything, but... well, here," she handed it over. It was a black box, with a baby pink bow. A chocolate box. "I hope you like them. I made them myself, with a bit of help."

Nagisa's cheeks felt like they were on fire. Oh my, she was regretting her decision already!

Mitsukuni just stared at the box, face blank. And Nagisa had no way of knowing it, but on the inside, the Haninozuka heir was having a panic attack. An 'oh-Kami-Nagisa-actually-gave-me-a-chocolate-box-for-Valentine's-Day-and-she-made-them-herself-oh-Kami-I'm-gonna-dieeeeeee' kind of panic attack. On the outside, though, he just stared, and then he smiled, looking up of the box to finally see Nagisa.

"That's so sweet of you, Nagisa! You were the only one who gave me chocolates this year!" he hugged her, careful of not hurting her shoulder that was almost fully recovered. Mitsukuni was clear when saying she was the only one. He wanted her to know she was special.

'I guess I have to start planning for White Day!' he thought, still smiling as he grabbed Nagisa's hand, directing them towards the exit.

Nagisa, not able to talk, just smiled, blushing even more. Her head was down, an it stayed that way until she got home, having said goodbye to both seniors just some minutes ago.

The smile never left her face.

"You mean, I'm invited to dinner?" Nagisa was confused. What was all that about?

"Yes. As a thank you for protecting my son and my family, if you accept it, I would like you to attend dinner tomorrow at the main estate. My son, Mitsukuni, would pick you up at 4:30," Yorihisa talked from the other side of the line, patiently waiting for her reply.

"Oh, well... I guess so. It would be my pleasure," she said, already thinking about what she should wear. Maybe her kimono? Or it was too much? She would ask Honey...

"It's settled then. I will see you tomorrow then, Nagisa-san," the smile was noticeable even from the other side of the phone.

"'Till tomorrow, Haninozuka-san." and then Nagisa hung up.

At the Haninozuka estate, Kasuki was expectantly waiting for her husband to tell her if everything had gone as planned. A simple nod was all she needed to start swirling in excitement, babbling about what they would have for dinner the next day, and that she needed to let the cookers know of their guest, and that she was so exited and that she needed to look for something to wear, and so on.

Yorihisa just sighed, looking at her with an indulgent expression. His wife could be a little overwhelming from time to time, but he loved her, and that was all that mattered.

'I should let Mitsukuni know. He'll be...' Yorihisa then looked back at his wife, and sighed. Well, he knew where his son had gotten all his energy.

Hello!

First of all, am I just the only one who feels like this chapter's sloppy? Sorry about that, tried to fix it and this it what it turned out. When I red St. Valentine's Day in the manga, I got super exited, and then I realized it was the cavity's chapter, and I felt like crying because all my sketch for the chapter was gone. I had the best idea ever, and then I couldn't use the 'everybody gives sweets to Mitsukuni' because there were no sweets allowed! I almost cried, it was devastating. But it's alright, I more or less have everything planned out.

What do you think about that last scene? Things should get interesting at dinner soon! I think. I honestly haven't thought about that yet hehe...

Anyways, that's all for now. Hope you like this and see you next chapter!

Stay safe! Kudos!
