Masquerade part 2

(Tamaki's POV)
As soon as the door to the changing room closed behind Lilly I went into the spare room and changed into my outfit. It was a white suit with a red tie and a red handkerchief in the pocket. The masque had the same porcelain quality as Lilly's and it was the same white but the out lining was the same shade of red as my tie. Once I was dressed I added the final touch of Lilly's favorite flower a white rose in the pocket standing out against the red handkerchief. I then returned to the main room to find that Lilly hadn't returned yet I decided to wait for her a few feet away from the door that went into the dressing room. When the doors opened and she emerged I was at a loss for words she was stunningly beautiful, not that she wasn't alway beautiful, I began to imagine our future life together, 'we would have the most beautiful children and-'

"Tamaki, you in there?", Lilly asked waving her hand in front of my face.

"Yes, sorry I was...Distracted.", I responded blushing slightly.

"I said, how do I look?", she told me.

"Oh! Stunningly beautiful!", I told her truthfully and now that I said it I realized that even that couldn't convey how simply goddess like she looked to me.

"Tamaki", She said.

"Yes?", I asked

"You're staring. Surely I don't look that bad?", she asked.

"No, no that's not it!", I exclaimed panicking.

"Then what is it?", she questioned. 'How can she not know how beautiful she is' I thought.

"It's, it's nothing...I'll, I'll tell you later. okay?" I said nervously.

"okay" she said stretching out the word, "We had better get going." she told me.

"Of course shall we?" I asked extending my arm for her to take.

She gave me a pleased smile, "We shall.", and off we went to join the party.

~~~TIme Jump To Later That Night After The Masquerade~~~

(Lilly POV)
I couldn't remember how long exactly I had been running only that I had to get away, away from Tamaki away from everyone and think. I ran until I reached a park near my apartment and sat down on the swings. 'Okay Lilly just calm down and think rationally about all of this' I thought to myself. 'I suppose it isn't that surprising really he had been acting strange lately but I never though. No that's not true I was just too much of a leap to think that. well okay lets just think about what happened again'

(Flashback [have I ever mentioned how much I love flashbacks])

"I had a really good time." I told Tamaki as we made our way to his limo after the masquerade.

"I'm glad, I really enjoyed myself too." he told me giving me a striking smile...'Wait what striking I have a boyfriend' I thought to myself.

"Oh look it's the limo" I said trying to distract myself from my last thought.

"Um. Lilly wait I have something to tell you before we get into the limo." He told me looking at me with a...was that a longing look on his face?

"Um. Sure." I said a little confused.

"Lilly I'm not really sure how to say this so I'm just going to say it. I...Lilly I...I love you Lilly.

"What! I...What! I...I can't...Tamaki...I...I have to go" I said turning and beginning to run (I had changed out of my ball gown earlier)

"Lilly! no! Wait! Let me explain!" He yelled after me. but I didn't listen I just ran.

(And we're back)

'Oh no he must think I hate him I really did overreact.' I thought. After much thinking I decided to talk to Tamaki and James the next day (Saturday) and tell them what I had decided.
(Tamaki POV)
I had my face in my hands right after Lilly had run away. "I really screwed that up didn't I?" I asked my self not expecting a response.

"Yes you did." Kyouya said stepping out from behind a wall.

"Kyoya! How much did you see?" I asked.

"Everything I already knew of course I was wondering when you would make your move." he said pushing his glasses up his nose.

"Can. I mean do you think you could help?" I asked.

"I was wondering when you would ask of course I will." Kyouya responded.
