I am so so so sorry that it has been so long since I last updated. Thank you for those who have recently read this story and have been waiting for a few weeks for an update and a huge THANK YOU to those of you who have been waiting over a year for an update. Between student teaching, graduation, getting a job and a loss of creative ideas for this story updates just were not happening. I have new ideas for this story and it will not be ending in the next chapter or anytime soon.

All of the characters belong to the wonderful Bisco Hatori. The only thing I own are the situations I have put a few of the characters in. Now sit back and enjoy. I'm working on the next chapter already and know exactly what will happen in it. Enjoy and again sorry!

A month had gone by since the Hosts had come to learn about Kyouya's relationship with Haruhi and everyone was still accepting even though Tamaki was quite awkward around the two and Hikaru rarely said a word to anyone except Kaoru, Mori and Hani. Anytime Haruhi or Kyouya attempted to talk to Hikaru about anything non-club related they were met with a cold glare and silence. Kaoru was often apologizing for his brother's childish behavior and Hani was always trying to get Hikaru to talk to Kyouya and Haruhi. He had yet to be successful in his attempts. It was Friday and their break was set to start next week and so far Haruhi had not heard of any plans of a trip. When she mentioned this to Kyouya he hadn't given Tamaki any ideas for destinations so he doubted there would be one this break. He was a little relieved that there wasn't a trip planned because that would allow them to keep their funds well supplied for the next month. He was about to ask Haruhi what her plans were during their break when Tamaki announced that tomorrow they would be leaving for a private resort for the duration of break. Haruhi caught Kyouya's eyes to mentally ask him if he knew about the trip but he looked as confused and irritated as she did.

"Tamaki-senpai what if some of us had plans for next week," Haruhi interrupted the babbling president.

"Well it's not required that you come with us Haruhi but it was something I had planned for us to do as a group for fun," was his half dejected response.

"I don't but I was just speaking on the half of the rest of the club."

Tamaki brightened considerably at her response and looked at the others expectantly. None of them had plans and Tamaki immediately went back to telling everyone the key points of the trip. At the end of the meeting as Haruhi and Kyouya were walking out Tamaki stopped them to ask Haruhi if she needed a ride home.

"Sorry senpai Kyouya and I have plans after this but thank you for the offer," she replied with her natural smile.

"Okay soon though?"

"Yes soon and yes I promise before you ask me that."

Halfway down the stairs Kyouya slipped an arm around Haruhi. She felt herself move a little closer to him when she realized that he was muttering to himself.

"Kyouya what are you saying?"

"Nothing it's just that Tamaki needs to accept the reality of things. He still flinches when you say my name a month later. It's ridiculous!"

"I agree but it is Tamaki-senpai after all."

As they started to get into the car a question popped into her mind.

"Kyouya why did you look so irritated about the trip? We all are going so you will be seeing me."

"It's simple I had plans for us but that idiot ruined my plans. I will have to reschedule a few things and I will surprise you another time."

"Eh?"

"That's all I'm telling you Haruhi."

A scowl briefly came across her face but one look from Kyouya knew that he wasn't going to be telling her any information at all…for now. As soon as they were in the car and Kyouya had told the driver where to go she struck. Before Kyouya could stop her she was sitting in his lap and lightly running her fingers up and down his chest. The shivers began again and Kyouya couldn't take it very long before he pulled her hand away and began kissing her. When they broke apart he heard her whispering but couldn't make any of the words out.

"What are you saying Haruhi?"

"Please just one hint?"

A look of disbelief crossed his face before he broke out laughing. Haruhi smiled into his chest enjoying the feeling of hearing his laugh reverberate from inside his chest. When he stopped laughing she looked up to see a genuine smile which caused her to smile even more. He leaned down, placed a small kiss on her temple before pushing her back slightly.

"Okay I will give you one hint and just this one hint."

"Yes Kyouya."

"It is something that will surprise you and yes it will involve travel."

"How far exactly will we be traveling?"

"Ah ah only one hint Haruhi."

"Fine."

"Haruhi don't worry the rest of the hosts don't even know what I'm planning so they won't be ruining it at all or even crashing our date."

"I'm so glad you always think ahead."

They felt the car slowing down and it was then that Haruhi realized they weren't in front of her apartment building but rather his house.

"I'm not meeting your father now am I?"

"No I would never put you on the spot like this. He's not even home."

"Then why are we here?"

"I thought we could spend a little time together even if we are both working on our homework."

"Kyouya you already have all of your homework done. You finished club business early and I saw you working on your calculus homework the last twenty minutes of club."

"Okay you will be working on homework and I will be working on calculating the club's funds and totaling the expenses this trip will cause."

They got out of the car and made the familiar walk to his room. As soon as she stepped inside she realized that she was much more relaxed this time. She went over to the table and spread her books out and began studying for her chemistry exam that was still three days away. As soon as Kyouya sat down at his desk he lost himself in the numbers and spreadsheets.
