WOMAN HOOD –a kyouyaxtamaki fanfict…

CHAPTER 3: In which the shadow leaves
pg just to be safe…

Kyouya took a deep breath as he stood before the two ridiculously large doors. Tamaki would be there. They hadn't talked since Saturday, since he made Tamaki cry. 'Get a hold of yourself!' Kyouya thought and pushed the doors open. Everyone stopped and stared at him, which maked Kyouya scowl a bit.

He saw Tamaki look up at him and then quickly look away before their eyes met.

He hates you. Ueno hates you too.

He flinched remembering how Ueno and Yoshiro had avoided him all this morning and how his dad ignored him at breakfast. They didn't even look up when he left abruptly, his plate still full of eggs and pancakes.

Kyouya wasn't aware that he looked like he was going to cry until Tamaki popped up in front of him with a concern in his deep purple eyes. He jumped back when he saw him with his face inches away and then panicked. When Kyouya was in a panicked state his normal reaction was to smile.

"I'm perfectly fine." He said calmly. Tamaki's face got very solemn and he turned away. Kyouya wanted to go back in time and stop Tsuki from ever turning him into a girl. He'd been fine with the way his life was. Fine with the way Tamaki always flirted with the raccoon-eyed tomboy named Haruhi. Fine with the realization Tamaki would probably marry her and he'd be alone. It was...all fine.

No. It wasn't fine, Kyouya sighed knowing he'd just been deluding himself. He would have cried anyway, his heart would be broken either way.

"Kyou-chan?" Haruhi's soft voice broke his train of thought; He looked at her in surprise. "It's nice to have you back!" she said smiling gently at him.

Kyouya felt his heart skip a beat and his lips pull into a sad smile, "Yes it is." he agreed.

The twins who'd been watching this looked at each other with uncharacteristly honest looks.

"Mommy's really sad." Hikaru said, "Well you remember what happened." Kaoru replied. The two of them sighed regretting following Kyouya and Tamaki last Saturday. Hikaru had nearly fallen over when Kyouya told Tamaki 'It wasn't real' and when Tamaki burst into tears. Kaoru hadn't expected this to happen. He'd been visualizing Kyouya being kissed by Tamaki under a lit streetlamp as the moon glistened in the sky over them.

'Why did things never end up like they were supposed to!?' Kaoru mused watching Kyouya listening to a young girl's story.

Tamaki looked up as Kyouya laughed at something one of his customers said. He was different, not the same Kyouya he'd known. The last time he'd seen Kyouya laugh he looked so strained. This was a pure heartfelt laugh complete with sparkly eyes. The customer fainted right after and Kyouya stopped and bent over with a strange expression. Was that actual concern on the Shadow kings face?! Tamaki nearly fainted himself which caused his group to cry in concern. Kyouya glanced sideways at him with a wistful look and then helped the girl up . Renge suddenly popped up and said They would have to go to the mall again sometime. Kyouya looked over at Haruhi who pretended not to notice and asked how long she'd know it was him.

Honey and Mori sat at there table. Mori discretely watching the parents. 'Why do they both act so childish without knowing...? 'He wondered looking at Honey devouring a cake.

Nothing could ever be the same again. They all knew it.

"Ne ne Haru-chan!!!"
"Yes my dearest wife?"
Kyouya and Haruhi stared at each other seriously for 2 seconds before bursting into giggles.
Hikaru saw Kyouya smiling and fake fainted "Oh!! My heart!" he cried falling into Kaoru's arms. The younger twin cried out "No Hikaru!" and Hikaru pretended he'd passed out. Honey smiled brilliantly "Kyou-chan's smile is so pretty!" he beamed, "But it's sad" Mori pointed out.
The twins looked suddenly solemn, "He's been like that since last week." Kaoru noted.

All of them turned and looked over at Tamaki accusingly.
The king grimaced.

Honey sighed softly, "His heart is broken" he despairingly said, Tamaki looked up confused. "Eh? What's that mean!?" he asked looking lost. The twins glanced at each other and sighed in unison "Milord is so insensitive!" they yelled shrugging. "You didn't know Kyou-chan was in love with you, Tama-chan?" Honey asked looking up at him cutely.
"Che, He's so dense!" Hikaru said, "Yeah!" Kaoru nodded agreeing.

"I mean even HIKARU knew about it!" he pointed out making Mori and Honey shake their heads.
"Yeah even I-HEY!!!"

Hikaru scowled at Kaoru.
"Well you are very dense Hikaru." Kaoru said defensively.
"I AM NOT DENSE!! "
"Are too"
"I"M NOT!! "
"Ah denial, Hikaru?"
"Ah you're so cruel Kaoru!" Hikaru faked tears and stole Tamaki's 'corner of woe' pose.
'Kyouya in love...in love with me!? 'Tamaki wondered
Tamaki's mind began to rewind through his times with Kyouya. The trips to shrines and the beach, that time they ate soba together.
'How could He be in love and I didn't notice!?' He asked himself.
"How long..." Tamaki muttered so quietly no one heard him. "How long!? " he asked a little louder, The Twins, Mori and Honey looked up. "How long what?" they all asked, scowling at The Insensitive king of Ouran. Tamaki whimpered slightly hurt. The group looked at each other and turned around to get to work.
"HOW LONG HAVE YOU KNOWN KYOUYA LOVED ME!?" he asked looking deadly serious.
They stared at him calmly, "Since the first meeting." they said in unison.
"WAH!!??"

Tamaki fell backwards.
The group stared and thought back to that day.

It was a bright day with nice weather. Kyouya sat in a chair looking annoyed at Tamaki for being there. The twins burst through the doors and were instantly greeted by Tamaki. "YOU CAME!!!" He cheered hugging them both. Kaoru choked a bit and looked up to see Kyouya looking at them discretely. He watched as Tamaki putting the twins in a bear hug and then smiled looking away.
In a row of lights one goes off.
Kaoru looked at his twin after being freed from Tamaki's grip and nudged him. Hikaru scowled at him rubbing his already sore shoulder and then looked up grudgingly. He watched the Idiot King run up to Kyouya cheerfully and chanted "SEE! SEE! Someone DID come!!" excitedly while jumping up and down with glee. Kyouya looked at him with a bored look and then smiling a little said "It seems you were right for once." in a cynical way.
The light next to the other light in the row starts blinking on.
Hikaru and Kaoru looked at each other grinning "Oh Mommy! What is this club about!?" they said in unison going up to Kyouya's desk. Kyouya stared at them for a minute and then shook his head "Why not ask Daddy, Mommy's interest is in finances." he said smirking a little at the idea.
Tamaki looked around confused "Daddy? Who's daddy Kyouya?"
Before anyone could answer Mori stepped in with Honey on his shoulders. Tamaki rushed to greet them and remarked on Honey's cute bunny. "I had a teddy bear!" he announced proudly showing them an irritated looking plush bear. Kyouya scowled at him "Baka, your too old for that thing!" he said. Tamaki turned around teary-eyed "Bu...BUT Mr. BEAR has been by my side FOREVER!!" he whined pitifully to the young shadow king. Kyouya seemed to gulp and his glasses fogged up as he pushed them up his nose.
Two lights go on. Now every light is on except one at the very end.

Tamaki gaped at them, "You all knew that after 2 minutes with us!?" He asked in shock. The group nodded in unison looking exasperated. Then they suddenly looked scared and quickly pretended to get back to work. Tamaki turned around to see Kyouya looming behind him.
"AH!! Ky...Kyouya!"

Kyouya opened his mouth to speak.
"It was obvious, you moron!"
Kyouya stiffen immediately and peered around him startled. Haruhi appeared by him and looked at Tamaki sternly. Kyouya looked surprised which was odd for him.
"WOW! Even Haruhi knew!"Hikaru gasped, "And she only met him this year!" Kaoru added.
Kyouya sighed and looked back at the crouching Prince coolly, "I thought you would figure it out eventually but I seem to have given you too much credit, Suoh-kun..."
Tamaki's eyes widened at him.

'Souh-kun...he called me Souh-kun!? OH no! 'He cried inwardly, 'Our friendship has been severed by my insensitivity to Kyouya's feelings!'
Outwardly Tamaki was waving his arms around grunting and whining. Suddenly the Shadow king turned around and walked to the door. "Kyouya-sempai!?" Kaoru said worriedly, Kyouya stopped short of leaving and turned back "I have something to say."
Tamaki halted and looked at the be-spectacled one quiztively. Kyouya's face was emotionless.
"From this day...I officially quit being a member of the Ouran host club." he anounouced. Tamaki's eyes widened in horror. 'No! He can't leave!' he cried.

Kyouya turned his back on them and left the music room quickly. Tamaki was too shocked to move.
'No….Kyouya is…'

Thump

END of chapter 3. (laughs evilly)
----
...I am evil...;
I parodied episode 1 and 25 in this one! Lol...
formally "Womanhood-in which hearts are repaired and positions are sought after..." but cut because that's too long...
Poor Kyouya...Tamaki is so insensitive! T T;

Changed to kaoru... because in the episode where tamaki leaves its hikaru who is upset, kaoru is upset when mommy leaves.
