A/N: Okay, this is a really late update. Sorry… And just want to remind you, Haruhi didn't attend Ouran High School. Sorry… I should have emphasized this.


I stared at the paperwork before me. It was a bunch of nonsense things if you didn't read carefully. I mean what is up with this weird case? They filed for a divorce because the husband accidentally fed their dog rotten meat and it had food poisoning. But it survived after they took it to the vet. And the wife is complaining that if the husband cannot feed the dog properly, then how can he feed a family? Talk about such trivial things… But the wife's remark… it's kind of right. But that's not enough for a divorce… Okay, I'm just going to decline this. Or maybe just pass it to someone.

No, I'll accept it.

No, I won't.

Yes, I'll take it. N-

"Haruhi, your eyebrow is creasing!" Fuyumi says lightheartedly, "The world sure has some strange people out there, huh?"

I roll my eyes and agree with her about that.

She giggles. "So, how was the date?"

I involuntarily blush. "It was…great."

Fuyumi squeals in delight, "Really?! He's cool and good-looking isn't he?"

I laugh and smile shyly, "Yes."

I tell her a bit more of what happened and she nods happily. But I never got the chance to mention his name. And I have to admit I was charmed just by thinking about Tamaki.

"Okay, I know it's exciting, whatever you're talking about," My boss says, "but ladies, you have to hurry on and do your work."

"Yes Sir!" We both say.

"Oh, and Fujioka, it's your lunch break."

I raise my eyebrows, "What about Fuyumi-san?"

She pats me on the back, "Don't worry, Haruhi," She says, "I actually took my break earlier, I was going to tell you that's it's already lunch break."

I look at my watch; it's already 2:30!! "Okay, thanks for reminding me, Boss and Fuyumi-san!"

"No problem! And don't forget the meeting later!" I hear them shout as I bolted out of the door.

--

I look at the nearby restaurants. Oh no, it's already closing for cleaning! I rush toward the other end of the street; it's packed with people this time; the construction workers are out there eating late. Just like me. I sit tiredly at the bus stop bench and rubbed my temples. If I go to the other street, I won't reach the meeting later. I close my eyes for a second and what do you know? Something tugged my bag away. Just me and my rotten luck…


"Why is the engine smoldering?" Kyouya asked his driver.

The driver laughed nervously, "It seems I didn't check if there was still water left on the radiator."

"It seems…?" Kyouya said menacingly.

The driver almost screamed in terror. He nodded vigorously. Better to tell the truth and suffer now than later. At least he won't have to imagine the suffering he has to endure. He'll experience it now.

Kyouya sighed and shook his head. "I'll be late for the meeting…."

The driver didn't know what to say so he nodded hesitantly.

"Okay, I'll just take the bus."

"I'll go with y-"

Kyouya shook the offer away, "I can go by myself." He left the car and went to the nearby bus stop. He checked his watch 2:16. I'm pretty sure that it'll take fifteen minutes for the bus to take him there. Oh well, he'll arrive anyway.

--

15 minutes later…

Okay, that was the slowest vehicle he had ever taken. But just as planned, 15 minutes was the approximate time.

Kyouya exited the bus and he was surprised when a strong force almost brought him to the ground. He turned his head and glanced at the person's face. His attire greatly emphasized that he was a lowly thief. He felt if his wallet was still there; he found out that his wallet was missing. Just half a second later he heard a girl shouting.

"Damn you! Get back here!!" She ran past him. She looked kind of an energetic type of girl but unfortunately she was wearing such high heels. Imagine a turtle trying to run like a rabbit but its short legs could only carry the heavy shell on its back; that's almost exactly the picture Kyouya was seeing now.

He patted the girl on her shoulder. "Don't worry, I'll handle this." He said reassuringly.

The girl opened her mouth to argue but he hurried after the thief. He loosened his tie and ran as fast as he can. "Coming through! Excuse me," He shouted as he ran past the crowd. The thief thought that no one was chasing him and so he slowed down his pace a bit. Kyouya saw this as his chance and he shoved the thief as hard as he could. The thief fell to the ground, and as he tried to get up, Kyouya knocked him unconscious. He checked the thief's pockets and found his wallet. He grabbed the girl's bag and exhaled loudly. He pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose and sat on the ground in exhaustion.

Been a while since I ran, I seriously need some exercise.

The girl pushed her way out of the crowd and reached out to him. "Thanks, you okay?"

This is the first time he saw her face since he patted her shoulder, "Hey aren't you..?"

--

My eyes widened in surprise, "Yes," I said, "Aren't you Suoh-san's friend?"

He huffed and smiled, "Yes. I didn't realize you were her."

I help him get up and he gives me my bag. "Nice meeting you here, but I got to go. I have a meeting."

"Oh," I said, "Come to think of it, me too."

He laughs quietly, "I'll see you soon, if time permits, Fujioka-san."

I nod. "Same here, Ootori-san,"

We both took awkward glances at each other and I noticed again his handsome features. His onyx eyes are descriptive, his hair a bit messy due to the pursuit. His glasses do not interpret a nerdy side but rather a mature and cool side. His skin was so pale, almost as if there's no blood flowing underneath it. But then, there was this implausible aura that forced me to just look at him forever. He broke the bind and cleared his throat.

"Are you going to be all right?" He asked.

"Yes," I say, "I'm going to be fine."

He gave me an uneasy smile and said, "I'll give you my cell phone number just in case some pickpocket comes again." He gets a pen and paper and scribbled his number. He then gives it to me.

"Thanks, I'll be sure to call you when that happens." I say as I get the paper from him.

And I suppose that was the first attraction I ever had to Kyouya.

And I hope that it was the same for him too.

"Okay, I'll be going now." He walked back to the direction of the bus stop. The same direction of where I was headed.

I walk a bit more and realize he's still just by my side. I laugh a bit and ask him, "Is it just coincidence or are you following me?"

He turned to me and with a serious face he answered, "I'm headed this way too, my meeting's here, in this building."

I look at him, "Seriously?"

"Yeah."

We go up to the elevator and open the doors and entered together. "Haruhi, the meeting's begun!! Hurry!" The secretary whispers to me.

I nod. And glance at Kyouya; he seems casual and calm, not a hint of worry on his handsome features. We open the doors to the meeting room and we meet a dozen pairs of eyes.

So much for a normal day.


A/N: Okay, I'll try to update as fast as I can but I can't promise anything. And I'm sorry nothing much happened in this chapter but please do review!
