Chapter 18

Kyouya searched around the house after leaving a bewildered Tamaki on the roof. Kyouya was highly uneasy no matter what he did to try and smooth his features out many of the staff around the house did double takes as he passed them. Kyouya's mind went over the events of the last few days carefully, he watched Tamaki's moves with new clarity looked for any signs for his new behavior. And just WHAT had he been thinking standing on the roof like that. It was quiet obvious he hadn't just been looking out into the garden….The garden!

Kyouya's heart lurched and the pleasant and most cherished memory of him and Haruhi, but what if Tamaki had witnessed that scene? What if his best friend had seen Kyouya kissing the only girl Tamkia had truly loved? He knew things were so changed, he doubted he would ever be able to look his best friend in the eye again. And what about Haruhi?

"Haruhi? There you are!" Kyouya finally sighed peering into the last room he'd thought she go, her own. She was strewed out on her bed face buried in her pillows and the muffled sound of sobbing ceased for a second as Kyouya approached the distraught girl.

"Haruhi, come now." He touched her back lightly as he sat beside the bed. She didn't move and he sighed removing his touch from her skin. He leaned his elbows on his knees and rubbed one hand across his face removing his glasses in the process.

Silence stretched on between them and then finally Kyouya lifted his head and turned when Haruhi spoke.

"What was he thinking?" She demanded. Kyouya hated the redness in her eyes and the tear stains down her face. He reached over for her and she took his hand and leaned against the palm as she sat up.

"I don't know Haruhi, I think…." He paused his eyes shuffling around the bed between them. "I think he knows." Haruhi froze and Kyouya's hand slipped from her grasp it fell to the sheets between them and he focused her blurry outline in his vision. She looked…..terrified.

"He tried to kill himself because of…." She trailed off tears welling fresh in her eyes she buried her face from sight and Kyouya leaned towards her scooping her up. He shushed, and hushed, smoothed and cradled her close till she was calmer once more.

"I don't know whats going on Haruhi, but maybe we should….be a little less ….obvious? Or maybe just sit down with him and tell him?" Haruhi pulled away from Kyouya's warm, protective chest and stared into his beautiful, dark eyes. He was staring back, he mustn't have been able to see very clearly but he was so focused. She lowered her eyes and chewed her lip. Was telling Tamkai really the best idea at this time? What if he went suicidal on them again?

"I don't know, maybe we should wait till he seems more stable. I'm really afraid he'll hurt himself." She felt the tears pricking again and pushed them away stubbornly.

"Alright, whatever you think is best." Kyouya stroked the side of her blurry face with the side of his hand and smiled when he saw the motion of her eyes closing and a small, content smile pass her lips. He leaned forward into a sweet kiss and cuddled her closer.

"Everything will be alright Haruhi. I promise."
