A/N: Ok, sorry for not really posting the same day as when I did the last chapter. I got mildly distracted, and therefore lost my train of thought. Forgive me? Anywho, I am going to try and work on making a schedule for working on my stories. Once I am finally able to actively dedicate myself to doing that, we should be good. Even though there may or may not be a few empty days, they will be filled up with other story ideas that I have been working on. I have a few newer pieces in the works, but I do not plan on publishing them until I clean up some of my current ongoings.
Oh, and just a head's up, I midly edited the third chapter. (The only edit was that I changed Haruhi being a complete lesbian over being bisexual. I had debated about that prior to posting, but bisexual worked then but a lesbian works much better for this story.)
Chapter 4: A Rose Garden Date
Haruhi's POV
Kyoya-senpai had decided to call his limo driver to come pick us up from the park. He claimed that he didn't feel like walking back to my apartment complex. Although the trip was short, we both spent the entire time deep in thoughts. I was pretty sure that Kyoya-senpai was thinking about the fact that I had told him that I was a lesbian, but I could be wrong too. I had tried to often guess what he was thinking, but sometimes he was unreadable, just like now.
Soon affter, I slipped quickly into my own thoughts. I had thought that Eclair was becoming my own drug. I had never thought of it like that before, but it was true. With my femininity awakened, it was almost a need to have the girl around. Eclair's presence tonight could only confirm things. I knew that I was head over heels in love, finally, with the girl and I didn't think that I would be lasting long on my own without her.
My thoughts shifted to the school day tomorrow. I wondered if she would be willing to come with me to a secluded place to eat a bento boxed lunch with me. I would have to plan that out tonight too, if I possibly could. Either that, or I would be waking up early to make it. With figuring out the menu for tomorrow, I figured that securing a place to eat tomorrow that was secluded enough for the two of us would just be as difficult.
"..Rose Garden." Kyoya-senpai said.
I really must have been lost in my own thoughts. "Pardon, Kyoya-senpai?" I said, confused.
"I was saying that you and Eclair should go to the center of the Rose Garden tomorrow for lunch. It's secluded enough. Not to mention that there will be a surprise.' Kyoya-senpai said.
'Damn rich bastard. I wonder if he was thinking the same thing I was?' I thought to myself.
"If you are thinking that I was thinking the same thing as you, you are sadly mistaken. You were just talking a bit aloud." Kyoya-senpai said.
I mumbled, barely audibly, about a rich mind reading bastard. Though, I still thought I heard him chuckle. That meant that he had heard that. I sighed before I turned to look out the window again, only to realize that we were already at my apartment. The two of us climbed out. I must have been too wrapped up in my thoughts earlier to even acknowledge the fact that the sky had quickly clouded up and a storm was starting to brew. In fact, it was at that point that I started to hear the low rumblings of thunder. I immediately started to tense up, though I knew I had to get inside first. I opened the door a couple minutes later.
Eclair's POV
That kiss that Haruhi gave me confirmed everything that she had told me. In fact, the kiss was still scorching my own lips. I wanted more kisses from her, but I would have to be discreet in my doings. Perhaps I could kidnap her a few times throughout the day just for a make out session or something. If anyone caught us, we wouldn't have to think twice about a cover story at least. Haruhi posed as a boy at school, no one would really know that she was a lesbian. They would think that she was actually straight. It was at this point that I got home. I headed up to my room to think. Though, I had a nagging feeling that my parents were going to want to know what was going on with me. After all, I had received a phone call and then dashed out of the house without telling anyone where I was going. Oh well. They would have to find out tomorrow night. I had a feeling we both would be admitting our relationship to our parents.
I was laying in bed thinking about what I could do for lunch tomorrow. Though, if I knew Haruhi as well as I hoped I did, she would be bringing lunch in her bento box. I always admired her skills for the culinary art. So, the next thing I would have to worry about would be the location. We could go to the third music room, since no one used it really besides the Host Club and that was only after school during club time. Though, I noticed on the tour that I had been granted that there was also a rose garden. Now, that would be interesting as well to be doing something naughty in. I ended up falling asleep to the internal battle of which spot would actually be better for us. I had been completely oblivious to the storm that had began to rage outside.
The next morning, I woke up in a somewhat happy mood. Today was the day after all. I quickly got up out of bed, and rushed to the shower before I had my stylists do my hair that day for school. Nearly an hour and a half later, I was finally at school. I knew from the rumors that Haruhi always got to school early in order to do some studying. I wondered if I could take some of that time away for a kiss or two before everyone got there.
After walking briskly for a couple minutes, I found our classroom. I was slightly over the hour and a half mark, which really didn't matter to me. Haruhi did. Imagine my surprise when I didn't see Haruhi in the room when I walked in. But, I did what any student would do and sat in a desk. This desk just happened to be Haruhi's.
She arrived a bit later, half an hour later to be more precise. She looked as if she hadn't slept much the night before. I decided to take this time to approach my lover.
"Haruhi, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?"
Haruhi shook her head. "I feel fine. I was just couldn't sleep most of the night. Sorry if you are worried."
"I'm only worried for you, Haruhi." I had walked up to Haruhi at that point and gave her a chaste kiss. But, somehow, we both must have deepened the kiss at some point, and our hands had been roaming a bit too.
A few short minutes later, we heard clearing of throats. Two to be exact. We broke apart and straightened our respective uniforms.
"Wow. That was hot!" Kaoru said.
"We're sorry to interrupt the mini make out session but other people are starting to come in now." Hikaru grumbled. It was obvious that he didn't like what he had just finished seeing. He seemed almost angry. I decided that I would request him alone today during club time if I had to.
"Sorry." Mumbled Haruhi as she sat down in her desk and began to review her notes. I decided that that this would be the best time to actually go to my seat. It was inevitable that we had seats on the opposite corners of the room. I sighed under my breath as I got settled in before the teacher walked in.
Haruhi's POV
The class first thing in the morning seemed to take forever to end. After all, I wasn't really paying attention to what the teacher was saying today. My mind and eyes kept stealing glances over to Eclair at the front of the room. My thoughts were seemingly to be centered a lot around the kiss she gave me earlier this morning. I was soon snapped out of my trance by Kaoru. It seemed as if the teacher had asked a question. I knew I was busted since I didn't know where we were in the lesson.
"Sorry, sensei. I wasn't paying attention so I do not know the answer." I replied in defeat.
"Fujioka-san, I expect better of you considering that you are on a scholarship. For not paying attention today, you will be put on a half hour's worth of detention today starting at 3pm." The sensei instructed before turning to someone who was paying attention.
"Um, what about my club time today?" I asked cautiously. I didn't think that I could get out of hosting that easily at such notice.
"You will come here." The sensei said, getting slightly annoyed.
"I don't think that Kyoya-senpai will like short notice today." I grumbled.
"Fujioka-san! Was that another complaint I heard?" The sensei snapped.
I tried to smile my host club smile at her before responding. "I was just concerned about what Kyoya Ootori-senpai or Tamaki Suoh-senpai would say to one of their hosts being in detention without sufficient notice. So, it was an indirect complaint."
The sensei sighed. I think I had won that argument, but I was wrong. "Fine, you will do an hour's detention tomorrow instead. Be sure to tell Suoh and Ootori please." The sensei snapped.
"Yes, sensei." I said. From that point on, the day passed on and I was on high alert during class time. I allowed myself a slight break during each of the between classes breaks.
Finally, lunch time came. I was so excited. I wondered what Kyoya-senpai had planned for us. I caught up to Eclair, who was still at her desk.
"Ready for lunch, Eclair?" I asked.
"I am, thanks. What is it that we are having? And, where are we going?" She asked me.
"One, I am not sure what we are having. Kyoya-senpai arranged everything, so I have a feeling that I will owe him more for this. Two, we are going to the rose garden." I responded to her questions.
"Ootori-san did? I wonder why he would do something like this?" Eclair muttered.
"Who knows." I said as we finally reached the middle of the rose garden. There, set in the middle of the garden was the most beautiful setting. Set for two with a couple of candles, a table held quite the assortment of foods. Of course, ootoro was among them.
Over the course of eating, we would talk about anything and everything. Before long, Eclair wanted to get to the point.
"Haruhi, why did we come out here for lunch?"
"There are two reasons for that. The first was so that we could eat in peace without having the others interrupt us. The second reason is so that I could do this." I responded before I got out of my seat, only to walk to where Eclair was sitting. Placing my lips onto hers, I started the kiss out slowly. Eclair deepened the kiss ever so slightly, but that only brought the edge from this morning's kiss back to the forefront of my mind. I deepened the kiss even more this time, which caused a moan from both of us at this point.
A minute or so later, we had to pull away in order to catch our breath. Moments after that, the bell rang to signify that there were only a few minutes left until the next class.
