Chapter 3: Feeling Lost

Natsuko walked beside Kyoya as they walked back to the main event, neither one of the two young adults seems too happy about it, but neither one showed it. In a sense they were the perfect match, while Natsuko was a little more out there at times, she was still very reserved with her privet life the only person who ever managed to slip through her defenses was Haruhi. Kyoya unlike Natsuko was not out there his only sense of being out there was in high school when he was the vice president of the host club.

Upon entering the grand ball room Haruhi and Tamaki made their way over to their friends. "Natsuko?" Haruhi questioned Natsuko simply nodded her head and motioned to the engagement ring on her finger.

"Haruhi, Tamaki-san you best get lost in the crowd, next few minute are bound to be chaotic." Natsuko told the two in hushed tones.

"We would like to announce the engagement of our oldest daughter Natsuko." Moriko started off you could tell she was a hostess.

"We bless the joining of our daughter Natsuko and her future husband Ootori Kyoya, cheers." Kentaro said happily.

"Now everyone this is a celebration so let's celebrate with the first dance, Kyoya and Natsuko would you care to lead." Moriko cheered, and Natsuko turned and faced Kyoya

Natsuko look at Kyoya and with a gleam of her eyes he could read what she meant. Well Ootori, now that were here let's play it for all we got. With a simple smirk he held out his hand to her she took it with a grace like no other.

"Would like to dance, my lady?" Kyoya smirked at her as she replied with.

"Most certainly, you lead I'll follow." Natsuku said with a fake smile that would make and Ootori proud.

Time Skip After the party (more like a torture chamber)

Natsuko's room

Haruhi and Natsuko were laid across the queen size bed doing what exactly, home work. Both girl had some form of home work to do; Natsuko's being a book report on Romeo and Juliet something she could have done in her sleep. While Haruhi was working on a student case file that her class had to review.

Natsuko has had enough of this tragic love story and through the book on the floor and put the papers back in her binder. It was making her sick. "Haruhi I'm going to go for a walk in the garden if you need me I'll have my phone." Natsuko said as she pulled on her long white silk rod and her dark purple house shoes.

Walking down the long halls quietly, because the Ootori's were staying the night and her parents were probably sound asleep by now along with her two little siblings. Stepping out of the back yard and stripping herself of her shoes Natsuko walked in the grass as her mind slipped further and further away.

This was her life, her body, her heart and she didn't want to marry someone who was only in it for the merits he would receive. It wasn't that she didn't like Kyoya, he was very cute, it was she just didn't like him. So she wasn't sure how this marriage would work, it was confusing to her young adult mind.

The light in the guest bedroom turned on, it was Kyoya room. Natsuko stared for a half of a second then turned from the window and made her way into the maze, twist and turns; she'd end up lost before long. Kyoya saw her turn from the window and watched her make her way to the maze. He grabbed his dark blue robe and put on his house slippers.

Natsuko was far into the maze by the time she realized she was lost. And if things couldn't get worse her phone had died sometime during her adventure to wonderland. It was also cold; Natsuko flimsy rode was starting the get wet from the newly found falling snow. She detested winter; it was cold, bitter and killed almost everything.

Why did rich people have mazes, she would never understand the concept but she was okay with that she guess. "I'm so cold." She mumbled as she made her way back through the maze or at least tried to but epically failed only getting herself more lost. That's when she heard something, her name being called.

"Who's there?" She questioned dangerously.

"Natsuko,!" The call came again Natsuko had started running in opposite direction only to run into her caller. Before she ever got his name out she passed out from exaltation and the now existent fever she had come upon.

Kyoya picked her up bridal style, carrying her effortlessly out of the maze. His first thought was to take her back to her own bed room but since the light was off and he was certain the Haruhi was asleep, he brought her new fiancé to the room he was staying. He took of her soaking wet rode and laid her in the guest bed, taking one of the pillows of the bed he threw it on the nice white fluffy couch he had in the room.

Sleep came easily to him and waking up in the morning came even easier than he expected. When Kyoya woke up it was early in the morning, like out of his character early. He sat up and looked around the room and saw a sight that he hadn't expected, Natsuko was trashing around violently mumbling incoherent things. Something about a car wreck, a missing person case, Greek gods that later amused Kyoya greatly. She really did love mythology.

So Kyoya got up and got dressed, then he pulled his laptop out and sat on the couch and started making plans for Tamaki's new host club. It was 6:30 when Kyoya had woken up around 7 Haruhi came running into the room only for Kyoya to make a shh signal.

Haruhi turned her eyes in the direction he was pointing and saw Natsuko (who had finally settled down) fast asleep. "What happened?" She mouthed curiously.

"I saw her go into the maze last night from the window, she must have had a lot on her mind because she ended up lost. " Kyoya explained to Haruhi in a calm tone.

"I found her and brought her back inside, you were already asleep so a laid her on the guest bed." He finished calmly and seriously.

"Was she okay?" Haruhi knew Natsuko had a knack for getting lost easily, didn't matter if it was in reality or in her own world either way she had very poor sense of direction when walking on her own two feet.

"She had a small fever last night, but I checked again this morning it's gone." He replied simply, Haruhi nodded but she walked past Kyoya and to the bed. Sitting on the bed by Natsuko she gently nudged her awake.

"Natsu you have to get up your father wants to see you and we agreed we go see my dad today." Haruhi said firmly after Natsuko groaned a "no I don't want to."

"Natsuko get up, don't make your father wait for you." Haruhi tried again this time Natsuko sat up, then gasped.

She had expected to wake up in her bed not one of the guest beds, and that's when Kyoya notice a kanji symbol's on her middle back. "Haruhi why am I in the guest bed room?" Natsuko asked.

"Natsu I can see your tattoo." Haruhi said blankly as Natsuko quickly covered herself up with the cover.

"ekk….." she squeaked loudly.

"You're in guest bed room because you got lost in the maze last night and Kyoya brought you in here." Haruhi explained as Natsuko looked around.

"Can you hand me my robe Haruhi?" She asked and motioned to the white robe.

Haruhi hand the now dry fabric to Natsuko who carefully put it on not to expose anymore of her tattoo, then she got out of the bed thank Kyoya for taking care of her. "Haruhi lets use the door that leads straight to my room so we don't run in to anyone who might scold me for walking around in Pajama's." Natsuko said as she walked over to a blank spot in on the wall and tapped a code around the spot, then part of the wall slid into the other wall and the two girls walked in and the wall slid back into place.

~Time Skip back in America~

Normal POV

Natsuko sat in her apartment room staring at the engagement ring on her figure, engaged, could you believe it because she sure as hell was having a hard time adjusting to it. Just a month ago she was sort of happy with her relationship with Jacob her older brother wasn't in a coma.

This knew since of life was a strange tragic one for our heroin.

Haruhi walked into the room late that day and stood In the doorway. "Why do I hate Kyoya so much?" Natsuko mused as she looked at her friend his with a small frown.

"How did you?" Haruhi questioned.

"It's his own fault; it was a long time ago when we were middle scholars. The story not even worth going into anymore, I'm just still bitter." Natsuko replied.

"But if you really want to know they story goes like this."
