Chapter 18

What To Do?

Brief Recap...

Kyoya and Sakuya dating? Some people seemed to have a hard time with the news...

Kyoya placed a hand on Tamaki's shoulder.

"Would you kindly remove your hands from my girlfriend?" he asked, his smile making his way up his face.

Several people were looking over in our direction and Tamaki let go, searching for a little emo corner to sit in. Kyoya grinned with satisfaction and went to eating his food.

The members blinked in surprise.

"Y'know...for a fake boyfriend...he's really getting into the role," whispered Haruhi.

Hunny ate quietly as he swung his legs under the table.

"Suspicious..." he said softly before giggling,"Ooh, maybe we can have chocolate cake for the wedding."

Mori nodded slowly as Hikaru frowned.

"You can't be serious..."

Tamaki was still stupefied by what he had heard.

"G-girlfriend? Sakuya and Kyoya? Together..."

Kaoru glanced at Tamaki.

"I think he's broken."

Haruhi rolled her eyes.

"What else is new?"

The school was abuzz with news of the two together and somehow made its way to Ryan's cousin's ears.

"So...the Brain and the Bimbo finally got together, huh? Interesting...I wonder how my little cousin is taking the news?"

He quickly got the answer when Ryan marched into his room and dragged him outside.

"I need your help."

Yuichi merely sighed.

"I figured you'd make an appearance sooner or later...What do you want me to do?"

I finished my meal in silence. The others were way too preoccupied with Tamaki. I stood up from the table and threw away my trash. I made my way out the door.

"Where are you going?" asked Kyoya from behind.

I almost jumped, but managed to suppress it.

"The restroom," I stated.

That statement made him leave me alone and I was grateful. It wasn't that I hated Kyoya...but with this whole dating business he was acting kind of clingy...Almost like he was afraid of leaving me alone.

I shook the thought off and entered the bathroom.

Later...

I washed my hands thoroughly in the sink. The restroom was seemingly empty. Which was strange... As I was drying my hands, I heard a stall creak open slightly. I turned around curiously.

"Anyone in here?" I called out curiously.

There was no answer. Shrugging and deciding it was only my imagination, I went back to drying hands. But I couldn't help but get the sensation that someone was watching me.

"Pull yourself together Sakuya. It's only your imagination," I told myself.

I was almost out the door when I found a stray picture on the floor. I slowly picked it up and turned it around, curious.

I gasped and instantly dropped the photo, almost as if it were on fire.

Haruhi scanned the table.

"Hm? Where'd Sakuya go?" she questioned.

Kyoya glanced at the direction of the restrooms.

"I'm guessing the restroom," noted Kaoru from the way Kyoya kept glancing in the direction.

The door for the girl's restroom bolted open and Sakuya walked out looking deathly pale. She rigidly sat down beside Kaoru.

"Uh...is something the matter? You look almost like you saw a ghost or something?" asked Hikaru.

She gave the others a tightlipped smile, shaking her head.

"No. I'm fine," she assured them.

Knowing her, she wasn't about to tell them what was really bothering her. It frustrated Hikaru sometimes, but if she wasn't willing to answer, he'd find out on his own.

Golden colored locks swished lightly as Seiphorah entered the restroom. She straigthened out her dress and adjusted her black bow. She looked down when she heard a slight rip.

"I hope I didn't rip my dress on something..." she whispered.

But what she was met with was a picture. She picked it up, piecing it together and blinked.

"What the hell is this? Some sort of sick joke?"

She decided to investigate more into the affair and put the picture in a baggy.

I sat in class, still feeling eyes on me. But strangely, they weren't coming from Ryan. I sighed and reached into my desk to pull out the book we needed for class.

I winced and quickly removed my hand. A small gash was scraped along my palm. Inconspicuously, I checked the desk and found a broken piece of glass pointed dangerously outwards. I removed it and put it on one of my handkerchiefs in order to throw it away.

I quickly walked to the trash can and threw it away. I sat back down in my seat sighing.

"This is going to be a long day..."

After class...

I walked out of the classroom only to be faced with Kyoya.

"Uh...hi?"

He grabbed a hold of my hand.

"How was class? Anything out of the ordinary happen?" he asked.

I gave him a confused look.

"Not...especially..."

He looked down at my band aid clad hand and frowned.

"Oh? Then what would you call that?"

I was quiet for a moment.

"It was just a small cut..."

He arched his brow.

"Do tell."

I sighed.

"Look. It's not a big deal, okay?"

He frowned slightly and tugged on my hand until we rounded a corner.

"You're not telling me the entire truth."

I frowned as well.

"I don't see why you're making such a big deal over a small cut. I'm okay. It's not like I was jumped or something."

He sighed deeply.

"Fine. Have it your way."

I looked around.

"By the way...where exactly are we going? Isn't the Music room that way?" I pointed out.

He smiled and a few students looked our way, probably eavesdropping.

"We are, my lovely kouhai going on a date."

"Date!" exclaimed Tamaki.

Haruhi rolled her eyes.

"Not this again..."

Hunny ate cake at his usual station and the twins were sitting on the couch.

"Chill out. We told you. They're not really going out. It's just a way to get Ryan to leave her alone," explained Hikaru.

Kaoru sighed softly.

"What's wrong Kao-chan?" questioned Hunny.

He smiled half-heartedly.

"Just wondering what kind of date the two are having. I bet they're having fun."

We sat in a quaint cafe' that students frequented after school. I quietly sipped my iced tea as Kyoya had excused himself when he had gotten a phone call.

"Oh joy. One of the best dates I've ever been in," I muttered softly with sarcasm.

This wasn't what I would call a date. But then again...I'd never actually dated anyone. I took another sip of my tea.

"I wonder who he's talking to?"

I mindlessly grabbed my own cell phone and checked to see if I had gotten any new messages from my dad. I laughed humorlessly at the thought.

"As if..."

Soft steps came from behind me.

"Who are you talking to?"

I almost cried out in surprise as I turned to see Kyoya standing right behind me.

"Just thinking aloud," I admitted.

He raised an amused brow and sat down to drink his ice coffee.

"Oh? What about?" he asked.

I sighed lightly and shook my head.

"Not something I really want to talk about right now..."

He quickly dropped the case and the two of us quietly drank our drinks. I kept glancing up at him every now and then, wondering what he was thinking. He sighed heavily.

"Is there something you'd like to tell me?" he questioned.

I set down my drink and gazed at other people bustling in the cafe. Several were getting all lovey dovey sharing drinks or holding each other close.

"Why did you bring me here?" I asked.

He sighed softly.

"Alright. Let's get down to business. I should have warned you before, but I think it's in your best interest if I continue to take you to and from school."

I looked at him with confusion.

"In my best interest? What's that supposed to mean?"

Club hours ended not long after and the remaining members circled around their self-proclaimed king.

"Gentleman! I have a proposition for you," said Tamaki as he cupped his own face and was sitting on a chair, his usual stance in play.

Haruhi sighed.

"I'm going home..."

Tamaki stood up abruptly.

"No~ Come back Haruhi!"

She turned around blankly.

"I want no part in whatever you want to meddle in. Sakuya and Kyoya's business is their own."

Hunny yawned.

"Yeah Tama-chan. I'm getting kind of sleepy. Can we pick this up tomorrow?"

Mori nodded lightly.

"Let's go home Mitsukuni..."

Tamaki stared at them in a slumped manner. The only two left was Hikaru and Kaoru.

"Come on M'lord! Don't let them get you down," said Kaoru.

Tamaki looked up with shining eyes.

"Does that mean you'll help me?"

Hikaru rolled his eyes.

"Not a chance."

Seiphorah sat in the music room, tuning her violin just right.

"Will this really work?" she heard whispered voices coming from outside.

A sickly sweet voice gently laughed.

"I thought you'd have a little more faith in me. Was I not the one who informed you all of what was happening? Patience...In due time all your worries will be wiped away..."

Seiphorah felt a shiver run down her spine.

"Whatever they're plotting...I don't like it."

The voices subsided and walked down the corridors, far away from the music room. She opened the door a smidge and she spotted gardening gloves lying on the floor. Looking around quickly, she straightened them out and placed them in another baggy.

"Things are starting to get stranger and stranger..." she muttered softly.

I arrived to my house, annoyed. Let's just say...the date didn't go so well. For me anyways. All I wanted was to be left alone, yet now I was in a situation that I couldn't run away from. Kyoya had dropped me off, promises of picking me up tomorrow as well. The doors opened abruptly whilst I was lost in thought and I was dragged inside. The door closed with a loud bang.

"Sakuya-saaammaaaaa!"

I sighed softly, as I knew I should have expected something like this to happen sooner or later. Yoneko looked at me with widened eyes.

"Yes?" I asked casually.

She dragged me to the living room and sat me down.

"Since when did you start dating that young man?" she questioned.

I sighed heavily once more.

"It really isn't as it seems. He's just my pretend boyfriend. To get Ryan off my back," I explained.

She pouted, crossing her arms and looking out the window.

"Why couldn't it have been one of the twins? That would have made it a lot more believable," she pointed out.

I raised a brow at her childish behavior.

"How old are you again? I really don't want to go into detail about this, okay? Anyway, I'm starved," I said and stood up.

She stood up, fiddling with her apron.

"Well...there is something, else I'd want to discuss with you," she explained.

I looked at her with the tilt of the head.

"And what's that?"

There was a long silence before she answered.

"I'm getting married..."

My features morphed to one of surprise.

"Ah...congratulations," I said, still in awe.

She looked at the ground, face darkened.

"Thanks, but...after my marriage...I won't be able to...what I mean to say is..."

It dawned on me on what she was trying to say.

"You're quitting, aren't you?"

She nodded solemnly.

"I wanted to tell you earlier, but things were so hectic that I wasn't able to..."

I bit my lip slightly, unable to answer her.

"I see..." I said, voice wavering.

Ryan crossed his arms, waiting outside Yuichi's class with impatience. Though it was after school, his cousin had stayed due to his duty as 2-B's President. Finally, the green eyed boy exited the classroom.

"Didn't expect you'd be waiting out here..." noted Yuichi.

Ryan rolled his eyes with impatience.

"Whatever. Did you convince them?"

Yuichi chuckled darkly.

"My...Can't you trust your own cousin? Of course I convinced them. It's not that difficult, you know," he said with a shrug.

Ryan nodded softly.

"Good...just make sure things don't get too overboard, alright?"

Yuichi sighed softly.

"It isn't so simple. Though I may be able to influence them, I don't have that much control over how this little scheme will end up..."

Ryan tensed. Glancing out the window, he lightly tapped on it. A swirl of emotions fluttering inside him.

"This is the only way..."

Yuichi observed him quietly.

"Is it? Can't you honestly give up, this once?"

Ryan spun around; icy colored eyes stared back with determination.

"I can't! I...I won't..." the corner of his eyes shone mistily.

Yuichi stared in awe. Where had the confident young man who hid his emotions go?

The constant sound of ringing and answering phones echoed the large building. Cubicles were set up by the hundreds. But further through mahogany doors, was a smaller staff that took care of the main events. The staff answered to one man. The man? He stood in his office, staring at the desolate weather outside through his window. Mounds upon mounds of paperwork stood at his desk, untouched. It had been months since his child had left in order to chase after a lost cause. Now...it was time to bring his child back. He quickly picked up the phone, dialing a number that would be sure to help.

The phone rang once...twice...thrice. On the fourth ring, he was answered with a gruff voice.

"What might I help you with sir?"

The man paused for a moment.

"I need for you to make a retrieval. Are you up for it?" he asked.

There was a sound of affirmation on the other line.

"Of course Mr. Ackerman. With pleasure..."

A/N: Okay...so I lied! This will end up as a three parter. Things are starting to get more dramatic, ne? I'm sad to say, but this fic that I have poured my heart and soul into will soon be coming to a close. Woo...It'll almost be two years since I started this fic...Wah...makes me feel a little teary. T_T That and the fact that I'm listening to bittersweet music. The pieces are in place and will soon be glued together...Just what are Yuichi and Ryan planning? You'll find out soon enough...
