Kyouya and Nika's eyes mimicked each other in how wide they were at that moment. They turned again and Kyouya swore Hunny winked at him.
"That's it!" Kyouya said as he grabbed Éclair's hand and stormed over to Nika and Hunny.
"I would like this dance." Kyouya said so he wouldn't start a scene as he grabbed the stunned Nika and walked back to where he was dancing with Éclair leaving Hunny smiling and Éclair with a raised eyebrow.
"What do you think your doing?" Nika said through gritted teeth.
"We need to talk, and I don't want to make a scene so let's just continue dancing. You do know how to Tango right?" Kyouya asked regaining his usual cocky tone.
"Of course I do, but I doubt your wife would be happy to know your dancing with such common trash." Nika said taking the classical Tango pose and matching Kyouya's steps perfectly.
"She is not my wife. My father arranged for her and I to get married and I wasn't made aware of it until that morning." Kyouya explained.
"You still could of called and explained or something!" Nika said as Kyouya spun her around.
The two did not even realize they were drawing a crowd around them as they continued dancing flawlessly and with such passion many were left amazed. The two also never realized that a pair of old grey eyes were watching them from further back in the room.
"What was I supposed to say? Sorry even though I like you I can't see you anymore because my father has arranged for me to be married and if don't accept I will loose my status and title." Kyouya asked as he dipped Nika low and swept her up the side.
"Yeah that would have been great. At least then I would know you cared…now dip me again." Nika said leaving Kyouya with a look of utter shock on his face.
"…I'm not someone who easily expresses himself." Kyouya admitted as he dipped Nika again.
"Talk about stating the obvious." Nika said with a sigh.
"I really am sorry….now turn to the left." Kyouya said as they continued dancing.
"I know you are, otherwise you wouldn't still be hanging around that horrible woman. I swear she was born with a stick up her but and its poking her brain." Nika joked as she turned left synchronizing with Kyouya perfectly.
"Why don't you hate me?" Kyouya asked surprised by how little Nika was threatening him.
"It takes a lot more energy to hate someone than it does to forgive." Nika said honestly with a slight smile.
"Nika I think I…" Kyouya started only to be driven out of his thoughts by the applause of the crowd around them.
Nika blushed when she realized that everyone was applauding them. She bowed shyly feeling like she had just woken up from a deep sleep as she realized they indeed were dancing as they talked.
"I've never seen anyone dance with such passion, such grace, and such romance!" A spectator yelled.
Hunny bounced over towards Nika and Kyouya happily.
"That was the best tango I've ever seen! So did you two make up yet?" Hunny chirped in his usual cheery manner.
"So this was your plan all along? I must say Hunny-Sempai you are very surprising." Kyouya said with a smirk.
"Just because I look cute and innocent don't forget I am older and head of my class." Hunny gently chided.
"Thank you so much Hunny-Sempai. You know you really had me thinking you were going to try something back there." Nika said smiling nervously.
"…." Hunny's smile just widened causing both Kyouya and Nika to sweat drop.
"What in the world do you think you were doing? How dare you embarrass me in front of these people, do you want me to call the engagement off so that you can frolic with the help?" Éclair boomed.
At that moment Kyouya didn't care about his status, his reputation, or what his father might think. His eyebrow twitched nervously as he pushed his glasses up in agitatation and took a deep breathes weighing what he was going to say.
"I have been engaged to you for two days. Two days of complete and utter hell where I have contemplated suicide more then a broke preppy high schooler. I already knew you were nothing more than a rich spoiled brat from the moment I met you when you were to marry Tamaki so I am not surprised your family passed you along to mine after he threw you away. However you have not only outstayed your welcome, you have also belittled people who are worth more then you ever will be in your life. For that I will not, cannot forgive you. So as to what am I doing? I am enjoying the company of a young woman who not only has a heat but a personality that doesn't make me want to puke. She is not the help, she is my girl which you never were and never will be." Kyouya said icy cold his words slicing straight to the bone.
The room was silent and Hunny and Nika were in shock. Éclair stood frozen her face unreadable as she started blinking quickly and took a deep breathe.
"Thank you Kyouya." Éclair said as her voice seemed to ring with future tears as she ran from the ballroom past Nika.
Fuyumi noticing the silence told the band to continue playing and tried to recapture the atmosphere of the party.
"That was a scene from a play that my little brother will be staring in at his school. Let's applaud his dedication and for letting up see a sample of what are sure to be one of his many roles." Fuyumi shouted clapping.
Hunny and Kyouya shared a look of disbelief as they both bowed trying to save face.
Kyouya turned around wondering how Nika was taking everything but was met with an empty space.
"Where did Nika go?" Kyouya asked.
At that moment the person in question was fallowing a crying Éclair to her limo. As Éclairs chauffer let her in and was about to close the door Nika invited herself in right after her.
"If you're here to beat me up could you at least wait till I clean myself first." Éclair said teary eyed as she saw Nika sit calmly across from her.
"No matter how tempting that would be when we first met, contrary to belief I'm not one for violence." Nika assured her.
"So why are you here? Want to rub it in, ne?" Éclair said covering her mouth after the "Ne" which made Nika smile.
"I thought so." Nika said triumphantly.
"You thought what?" Éclair said miserably as she grabbed some tissues and wiped her nose.
"No one can go out of their way to be that mean and it not be on purpose." Nika said crossing her arms examining Éclair with her eyes.
"Oh, so you caught me! I guess the jig is up, now you know I try to be a bitch." Éclair said sarcastically.
"Now if only I knew the reason why you went out of your way to be disliked." Nika mumbled to herself as she used her uncanny ability to access people.
"What are you looking at?" Éclair asked sitting back with her arms crossed.
"Just a shot in the dark here, but let me guess…you wanted Kyouya to want to divorce you." Nika said somewhat sympathetically.
Éclairs eyes grew wide and she began crying again. Nika moved to sit next to her and offered her support.
"My family told me I had to marry Kyouya if I wanted to keep our status. I figured if Kyouya broke up the marriage my family wouldn't be mad at me, and they would come to some business compromise." Éclair said tearfully.
"You should have just told him your situation." Nika chided gently as she grabbed a tissue and wiped away Éclairs tears.
"And have it get back to my parents that I made a deal with him for my own selfishness! I don't think so." Éclair said shaking her head which made Nika laugh.
"Kyouya may not be able to admit it but he never does anything for himself. Behind that aloof and cool exterior he really is a sweetheart, who only wants to make his friends and family happy." Nika said with a warm smile.
"Why are you taking pity on me? Obviously you feel something for Kyouya." Éclair said dumbfounded.
"You made me leave a room in tears and now that you had to do the same I think were even, plus any woman who had the guts to want to make Kyouya hate her has my respect." Nika joked.
Éclair lunged forward and hugged Nika tight whispering her gratitude.
"Don't thank me yet, now I don't want you leaving here empty handed. I can tell that you have a crush on a certain sweetie pie. Ne?" Nika said with a smirk.
Éclair blushed 5 different shades of crimson and looked away.
Kyouya and Hunny waited outside of Fuyumi's house trying looking for any sign of Nika covered in Éclairs blood after a sound thrashing. What awaited them shocked both the cool and composed Kyouya and the sweet and older Hunny.
Out of a limo parked in front of Fuyumi's house came a completely clean and laughing Nika fallowed by a cheery and not beaten Éclair. The two women seemed to be laughing as they headed up the stairs towards the two men.
"I'm truly sorry for my actions in there it was un-gentlemanly of me." Kyouya said bowing to Éclair.
Nika nodded to Kyouya and Éclair as she bent down and whispered something in Hunny's ear.
"It is me who is sorry for my actions. I went out of my way to be un-likable which is not becoming of a lady. I only wish we could have met on better terms and come to some sort of agreement." Éclair said sadly.
"You acted that way on purpose?!" Kyouya said surprised.
"No one is that evil." Éclair joked making Kyouya chuckle.
"Maybe we can come to some sort of agreement after all." Kyouya said as he glanced over to a smirking Nika and blushing Hunny who had joined them.
"Éclair-Chan do you really have a hello kitty tattoo?" Hunny asked shyly.
"Y-yes I do Hunny-sempai." Éclair said her face as red as a beet.
"Call me Mitsukuni….do you want to go back inside? I heard their going to serve dessert soon." Hunny offered.
"I would love that. I hope they have strawberry that's my favorite..you like strawberry ne?" Éclair asked earning shocked wide eyes from Hunny who excitedly grabbed her hand and rushed her back inside.
"What did I just witness?" Kyouya asked.
"Just the beginning of something cute, adorable, and somewhat disturbing." Nika chuckled.
Kyouya smirked as he looked at Nika and gently wrapped his arm around Nika's waist and dipped her giving her a warm and passionate kiss.
"He just had to make it harder on himself, and even harder for her didn't he." Yoshiro sighed as he looked out his daughters front window and saw his son and Nika kissing as if they were long lost lovers.
