Chapter Six: Golden Slumbers
Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise
Sleep pretty darling do not cry
Haruhi bounced Toujiku up and down, cooing quietly. "Baby, baby" she said in a small voice. "Shh, shh, do you want mommy to get a headache?" As if he wanted to answer her, he began wailing loudly. She groaned. "Come on, Toujiku! I fed you, burped you, changed you and rocked you back and forth. What else do you need, sweetie?" Something flashed in her mind. "Oh. Oh no, no, no, baby. I don't know how to sing"
"That's what I want you to take lessons," muttered as she walked into the room quietly. "If you can't sing, just hum. No one is off tune when they're humming."
"Oh but I-"
"Listen, you're child is crying like a maniac and he wants you to sing. You couldn't sing for your life, so you're going to hum right now!"
The mother jumped slightly before turning to the baby boy. She cleared her throat and started to hum a gentle song. Éclair smiled, recognizing it easily, and started to sing along. When Toujiku finally fell asleep, Haruhi laid him in the crib and fell onto her bed. "I don't understand why you need the crib in your room. I told you we could set up another one"
Haruhi shrugged. "It seems safer and less troublesome. If Touji is by himself, no one knows what crazy person could break in and hurt him and it's easier to get up and walk a few steps than going to a completely different wing just to help him"
The woman rolled her eyes with a scoff. "He'd be safe here"
"But it's still less troublesome"
"Oh fine, I just came here to remind you that your singing lessons begin tomorrow at noon"
"Éclair, I said no"
"Take tonight as an example. You won't always be able to comfort him by humming a song. Sooner of later, he's going to get demanding and he'll want to here you sing" Haruhi opened her mouth to speak but she beat her to it. "And don't tell me that you don't want to learn how to sing. Everyone knows that you do"
"This is ridiculous." She grumbled.
"You're going to have a very happy son. He'll be asleep like that after you lessons," Éclair snapped her fingers, grinning. "Goodnight, Haruhi"
"Yea, yea. Damn rich fool"
"You're welcome, love. Oh, and after that, we are going sight seeing! You've never actually going to Paris. You haven't stepped out of Tours since you first got here!"
"Takashi! Look! It's L'Arc de Triumph!"
"Ah"
"Aren't we going to go? Come, come!"
"Ah" Takashi let Mitsukuni drag him across the busy street and towards the arch. He stared at the carvings for a while as Mitsukuni ran from vender to vender, trying to buy souvenirs for their friends.
"Haruhi!" the tall man heard. "Come on! Oh, Toujiku will be fine! Look!" He turned quickly and, sure enough, there stood the brunette, a small baby in her arms. Takashi stared at the boy that was wrapped in a blue blanket before his gaze rose to his friend.
"Takashi?" Hunny asked, holding many figurines in his arms. "What are you staring at? Can you give me my bag, please?"
"Mitsukuni," Mori said emotionlessly. "Look," He nodded his head in Haruhi's direction. His cousin's eyes widened as he stared at the girl.
"HARU-CHAN!"
-----
Haruhi frowned when she heard someone call her name. She looked around."Did you here that?" Éclair asked in confusion. "Did someone call you?"
"HARU-CHAN! HARU-CHAN!" They turned and found two people staring at them. One was bouncing up and down excitedly. Haruhi's eyes glossed over as she watched Hunny run towards her. Éclair quickly took the boy before Hunny jumped into the girl's arms. A bright smile appeared on Haruhi's face.
"Mitsukuni" She whispered.
"Haruhi!" He laughed. "We found you! We found you!"
"I thought I told you not to come looking for me" She chuckled. He pulled back and stroked her cheek.
"If it makes you feel better, Takashi and I are only here for vacation. We decided to respect your wishes…well actually, Tamaki decided it. We just followed."
"He did?" She asked in disbelief. "Oh, god. This is so great. I've missed you guys so much! Wait, where's Takashi?" Suddenly, she felt herself being picked up and turned around. Mori held her in the air where she was hanging loosely. "M-Mori? Senpai, what are you doing?" She giggled.
He smirked at her. "You got…bigger"
"Hey! I was pregnant!"
"Not an excuse"
"Yes it is!" She wiggled out of his arms and embraced his abdomen. "Is it me or did you get more muscles? How long have you guys been here? When are you going back? You won't tell anyone will you? I promise I'll come back sooner of later it's just-"
"Don't worry Haru-chan," Hunny interrupted. "We promise not to tell anyone."
"Thank you, but that doesn't answer how long you guys have been here and when you're going back."
"We've only been here a day. We'll be leaving in two weeks"
"Two weeks?" Haruhi cried. "But that isn't long enough!"
"You could always come back with us" Mori grinned.
"Don't even try that. Éclair, come here."
"Éclair?" the two questioned in shock. She smiled at them.
"Nice to see you two again," she told them. "Toujiku. Say hello to your ojisamas" She said to the little baby. The boy opened his eyes and gurgled.
"Kawaii!" Hunny whispered. He took the baby into his arms and kissed his nose. "I am going to spoil you rotten, little boy."
Haruhi smiled. "What are you going to do for Touji, Mori-senpai?"
Mori raised an eyebrow. He bent down and looked the baby up and down. "I'll teach him how to defend himself. Every summer when Mitsukuni and I come here, we'll teach him"
"But next year he'll only be one year old"
"Doesn't matter. The younger the better" he said stiffly. She shook her head, slapping his arms. "Or I could just spoil him rotten until he is ready for actually training" He murmured.
Éclair leaned towards the three. "Come on. Let's go get something to eat. You can stay at my home."
"Oh," Hunny said startled. "You don't have to do that. We're at a hotel right now anyway-"
"There is no way that I'm going to let you stay at a hotel when you can stay at my mansion with Haruhi. Come along. I know this great restaurant just down there"
Ootori Kyouya was a very unhappy man. His work demanded too much from him. Sumire wasn't only spending all of his money, but she was complaining about not spending enough. He lost his friends, but most of all, he lost Haruhi.
He thought that being engaged to Sumire would bring about better things. He could win his father's favor while Haruhi could move on to bigger and better things. He had never been more wrong in his entire life. He didn't care about what his father thought about him. He just wanted Haruhi back.
"Kyouya!" He heard Sumire whine. "Can I have 60,000 yen?"
He groaned and slid under his desk unashamed in the fact that he was hiding.
"Kyouya? Kyouya. Kyouya!"
"Go away, you ignorant woman!" He shouted from his office. She stormed in, impatiently.
"There you are. Listen, I need 60,000 yen. Give me"
"Not even a please?" he asked sarcastically as he sat back in his seat.
"I could give much more than a please," She strutted towards him in a manner that she thought was seductive and sat on his desk, her legs crossed as if teasing him. He eyed her in disgust and pulled her off the desk.
"Go away, I have to work"
"Kyouya! I need that money! It's time for me to get a new bag!"
"No, it's time for you to get a job!"
