Chapter 14: Dancing In The Moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight

Everybody's feeling warm and bright

It's such a fine and natural sight


"Splendid! Splendid!" Yoshio laughed. Sumire was squealing happily, hugging Kyouya tightly. The man paled but not enough to show. "You're doing the right thing, my son" Yoshio said. "You're going to be a happy man one day. It was the right choice to let Sumire back into the house"

Kyouya cleared his throat. "Yes, I'm sure" He said stiffly. Sumire kissed his cheek and giggled flirtatiously.

"How about we go inside?" she asked quietly so Yoshio wouldn't hear. Unknown to her, the man had heard. Yoshio shifted from one foot to the other uncomfortably.

"Well," he started. "I'll leave you be. Enjoy the rest of your day" he said cheerfully, leaving them to their alone time. Kyouya nearly grimaced as Sumire's hands ran down to the back of his pants. He groaned in disgust as she squeezed. Sumire, taking it the wrong way, giggled once more. "I-" he stopped himself from gagging before continuing his sentence. "I have to go to Tamaki's. He wanted to see me today"

She frowned. "Oh but-"

"Sorry, Tan-Sumire. I'll be back." He squirmed out of her grip. She batted her eyelashes at him. Looking around in confusion, he asked, "Did you want something?"

Her eyes widened in disbelief. "I don't get a goodbye kiss?"

Kyouya kissed the tips of his fingers, brushed it against her lips quickly and ran out of the gates. He leaned against the wall and wiped his hand furiously on his shirt. "You know," He whipped around and smiled. "I'm going to have to cleanse you," Haruhi told him. "She put her dirty hands all over you. Now what am I going to do? Submerge you in water….hmm…bathe you with perfume?"

He chuckled lowly and threw an arm around her waist. "Where's Toujiku?"

"With Tamaki-senpai" She said.

"Are we going to get him now?"

"Yes. He can't wait to get ice cream with his father…AGAIN"

He flinched at her harsh tone. "We just needed some father-son bonding-"

She hummed in faux agreement.

"You aren't-"

"Never forgiving you" she answered before he questioned. He sighed.

"Who said you had to forgive? I'm just asking you stay with me?" She bit the inside of her mouth to keep from smiling. He kissed her neck and her smile broke free. "Come on, Fujioka. Time to get the Shadow Prince"

"Why do you get to be Shadow King and Touji get to be Shadow Prince, but I can't be Shadow Queen?"

"Simple"

"Oh?"

"Because you're the sun that makes us shadows"

She snorted. "Wow, Ootori"

"What?" He laughed.

"That has to be the corniest thing I've ever heard!"

Touji skipped in his step, his mommy and daddy holding his hand. "Can we go to the beach?" he asked. Haruhi looked up at Kyouya. The man smiled softly.

"Of course we can." He told his son. Touji shouted in happiness. A bright smile lit up his face. "Come on," Kyouya laughed. "Let's get into the car. The day is still young. The driver can drive us up to the private beach"

Haruhi gasped. "But that's so far away from here"

"Not by much," Kyouya shrugged. "And the beach is even more beautiful at night. Come on, let's grab some clothes and go"

Toujiku sighed. "I thought we were going to the beach" He whined.

"Young man," Kyouya warned. Touji sat up in his eat and took a quick bite out of his meal. "What did I tell you?" Haruhi almost laughed at the two. Touji sighed.

"That we were going to the beach after we ate dinner" his father nodded. "But daddy! The sun will be gone!"

"What else did I say?" Kyouya asked again, putting his fork down on a napkin.

"That the beach was prettier with the sun down"

"So we'll all be happy."

"But the dark is scary!"

Haruhi smiled at Kyouya. The man pushed his glasses back onto the bridge of his nose. "We'll bring lanterns and a boom box so there is light and noise"

Touji yipped in excitement as he tried to finish his meal quickly. "Slow down or you'll choke" Haruhi laughed. Touji nodded as he slowed his pace. Kyouya took hold of her hand as he continued to eat his dinner. "What does Sumire think?" She asked quietly. Touji made a gagging sound at the name, something that his godfather taught him.

"Thinks I'm away for business" He said. "Called home before, left a message"

Haruhi shook her head. "You're evil"

"I know"

When dinner was done, Touji jumped out of his seat and ran up to a room to grab his things. Haruhi took some lanterns out of the cupboard while Kyouya went to get the battery operated boom box. When everyone was ready, they set out for the beach. Touji held onto his mother's hand tightly until the lanterns were lit all around them. He smiled up at Haruhi and she ruffled his hair. With a giggle, he ran towards the water. Kyouya followed him.

Haruhi sat on the sand and watched as the father and son jumped up when the water him them. She smiled and rested her head on the knees she hugged close to her body. She turned the stereo on and looked for a station that was playing an upbeat song. A few minutes later, the two came out of the water and hauled Haruhi to her feet.

"Hey!" She laughed.

"Come on, mama!" Touji said. "Let's dance!"

Kyouya twirled her around and she danced against him. They laughed as their son started shaking his bottom in rhythm with the music. "Shake, shake" he sung quietly. Haruhi looked up at Kyouya who was rolling his eyes at his son's antics. He kept his arms around Haruhi's waist as the swayed back and forth together. Haruhi's arms snaked around his neck.

Touji continued to dance freely, not caring if the song was fast or not.


Sumire set her glass onto the table. She fingered the top so that it would make a ringing noise. "You're up?" a groggy voice said behind her. She rolled her eyes and sighed in annoyance. A chuckled erupted from behind her. The man tugged on her blanket. "Why don't you take that off and-"

"How about you go back to sleep?" she asked in annoyance.

The man frowned before falling back on the pillow. "That didn't seem to be your notion before, Taniguchi" He said coldly.

"Of course it wasn't," She snapped. "I needed relief. Now that I have it, no matter how..." She shuddered "horrible it was, I think you should leave"

The man shook his head as he got up and picked his jeans up off of the floor. "You know what, Sumire," He said.

"How about I humor you and let you go on with your little monologue" He glared at her back and threw an empty cigarette pack at the back of her head. "Hey!"

"Everything you've ever done to whoever this guy, is all gonna pour back down on you" He pulled his shirt down and buckled his belt. "I'm out of here"

"Get out, baka!" She screeched. He rolled his eyes.

"You can't actually say that when I already told you I was leaving. You need to calm down"

He slammed the door shut, leaving Sumire to her thoughts. The maids and butlers stared at him as he left through the front door. On his way out he bumped into an older man. "Who are you?" The man asked him. He sighed.

"Ono Kairi" He said. "Problem?"

"Yes there is a problem! I'm Ootori Yoshio. My son owns this mansion. Who are you and what are you doing here? Sumire said my son was out of town so it couldn't possibly be-"

"I slept with your son's fiancée" he said in a bored tone.

Yoshio froze. "You raped-"

"Of course I didn't! She's the one who jumped all over me." Pissed off and angry, Kairi got a sudden idea. "Do you know what she was telling me in there? Hmm?" He asked with a smirk. Yoshio eyed him. "Taniguchi said that she wanted to marry Kyouya because she wants to steal all of that money. Apparently, once she's got access to your vaults in the bank, she's going to run off somewhere."

Yoshio raised an eyebrow. "She wouldn't do that. She couldn't do that in the first place, with all of our guards."

Kairi snorted. "She doesn't care" He said. "She's going to bring about the downfall of your family. Scandals for all of you" Kairi gave a brief, sarcastic smile before walking away.

Yoshio looked into the house, unsure of what to do. "No," He convinced himself. "She wouldn't do that. He was probably here…picking up some paperwork from Kyouya's office" He entered with the most confident smile he could muster. "Sumire!"


Haruhi stared out the car window, watching the sun rise. She sighed sadly when the car stopped. It was back to another boring day. Kyouya helped her out and she hooked her arm into his. He carried Toujiku with his other arm. The boy nuzzled his cheek into the crook of his father's neck. Kyouya stared down at Haruhi lovingly. She smiled back, resting her head on his arm.

Kyouya closed his eyes in delight. "So this is what it feels like to have a family" he whispered to her. Touji's arms tightened around him. Haruhi kissed his muscles. He grinned happily as they walked up the path to Tamaki's house. They had promised to visit him after their little weekend away. Tamaki opened the door, waving his arms wildly.

Haruhi looked at her friend in confusion. She glanced up at Kyouya who had the same expression. "Go back!" Tamaki hissed as quietly as he could. "Go back! Hurry!"

"Suou, who's at the door?" Tamaki's eyes widened as his arms began flailing in the air, but it was too late. Kyouya stiffened as he saw his father walk next to his friend. Yoshio was staring at them in disbelief. Sumire came up behind him. She instantly began sobbing.

"Kyouya," Yoshio said in disappointment. "We came here to see if Tamaki knew where you were. Obviously, we have solved that matter"

"Father-"

"We should talk in private" The man said sternly.

Haruhi tugged on his shirt. Kyouya looked down. She opened her arms and with a reluctant sigh he passed Toujiku to her. Touji looked around wildly.

"Otosan?" he asked. "What's wrong?" Kyouya glanced at his father. Yoshio was staring at the young boy.

He patted his son's cheek. "Nothing's wrong. I'll be right back, okay?"

"Promise? You said you would take Okaasan and me to get more ice cream"

"Promise" He kissed their cheeks before walking over to his father. Sumire was glaring at him.

"Bastard" She growled. Yoshio raised a hand.

"I'll deal with him" He said.
