Haha, I am inspired again! Sure, I may have to sit down and re-read and re-watch all of the manga/amine series for more scenarios, but I am inspired!

Asdfghjkl this chapter might be pretty interesting! A character from chapter one is back in this chapter c: as well as some other events, so

Warning: Kyoya may be a little bit OOC in this chapter.

06: Between You and I

-4 months into pregnancy-

—*Akira*—

The Monday after Yuuichi had visited, I felt myself walking down one of the hallways at the school. I guess I just needed to think a little. I felt my stomach to feel a tiny, almost non-existent bump; sort of like I ate a big lunch. I looked out one of the giant windows to look outside and felt myself yawn; my hand shot up to cover my mouth. "Akira-senpai."

I turned to see a girl. After looking at her for a few moments I remembered her as that same girl from almost four months ago; the same one who had asked about me and Kyoya. Her short, wavy blonde hair is slightly longer; and her green eyes look determined. I turned to fully face her. "Do you need something?" I asked. The girl in front of me crossed her arms. "This is all your fault, you know." She said. "Excuse me?" I asked. "Ever since you came here, things have been changing around Kyoya-senpai. He and Tamaki are fighting, and he's gotten disowned. I think it's your fault." The girl said. I walked over to her. "Oh yeah? What makes you think that?" I asked. The girl pursed her lips. "You've been the center of their attention! It's unfair to everyone else! You should just go back to where you came from and leave!" The girl said loudly. "I'm not going to leave. Kyoya is my fiancé, and Tamaki is my brother. I will not leave them just because you, a girl who neither of us knows, nor care about, tells me to." I said. The girls' expression changed, to one fueled with anger. "Damn it, you stupid bitch! Get out of here!" She yelled. I felt something in me snap and my hand launched out, grabbing onto the shoulder of the girl in front of me. She squeaked in surprise and I started squeezing her shoulder. "What is your name?" I asked. The girl looked at me, fear flashing across her face. "Y-Yuko." She said quickly. I felt my lips curl into a smile, or maybe a snarl. "Well Yuko. You would know best to mind your own damn business. I will not leave this school just because you think that you can make me." I said. I let go of Yuko's shoulder and turned around. "Now leave me alone."


I yawned and stared at the ceiling. I couldn't help but think about Yuko and how angry she was at me. "Is that what the other students think? Do they blame me as well?" I thought. I sighed and sat up. "Akira, are you awake?" Kyoya asked, opening the door. I waved to him and he walked into our room. "How are you feeling? You've seemed down ever since we've gotten back." Kyoya asked, sitting beside me. "I'm…feeling okay. Nothing I couldn't handle." I said, smiling. "Are you sure Akira? I can tell when you're not okay." Kyoya said, moving his hand against my cheek. I pushed his hand away. "I said I'm fine Kyoya." I said in a harder voice. I looked at him and he looked thoughtful before he stood. I stood as well, only to be pushed back onto the bed and held down by my wrists. I looked at Kyoya, who was looking at me with a demanding expression. "Akira, you are not fine. Tell me what happened or I will make you tell me." He said. I bit my lip and looked away from Kyoya, trying to break the eye contact we had. "Akira, tell me." Kyoya said, his voice sounding less harsh and more of a pleading tone. I looked at him. "Kyoya…" I said, trying to choose my words carefully. "I think everyone is blaming me for what happened." I added. Kyoya let go of me and laid down beside me, pulling me close. He sighed. "Idiot; nobody blames you for anything." Kyoya said into my hair. I felt tears in my eyes and I started to cry. Kyoya held me and I cried into his chest. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry…" I said, my voice muffled by Kyoya's chest. "There's nothing for you to be sorry about…moron."

—*Kyoya*—

I was walking to the Third music room for a Host Club meeting, when I heard some voices.

"Yuko, why did you say those things to Akira?"

"Because it's true, you know it is, Aiko. Everything is her fault."

I felt my breath catch in my throat. So that's why Akira was upset yesterday.

"Yuko, you know that's not true! You're being insensitive and putting all of the blame on Akira! Have you even stopped to think about how this situation is affecting her? You seem to have no problem tearing others down, but when you become the target, it's suddenly a major crime. Stop being such a hypocrite and get your head out of your ass! Kyoya and Tamaki aren't yours or anyone else's! They are their own people, and they choose who they want to be around!"

"Yeah, well, screw you Aiko!"

The girl that Aiko called Yuko started walking away and I stepped out from the corner I was at. "You really should mind your own business." I said. Yuko froze and slowly turned to look at me. "K-Kyoya-senpai…" She muttered. "Stop bothering my fiancé." I said, turning around and continuing my walk to the third music room. I heard Aiko behind me. "Did…Akira tell you?" She asked. "No. She's barely told me any reason why she's been like this." I said, slowly my pace down so Aiko could catch up. "I think…that this entire situation is hard on both of you, but even more on Akira." Aiko said quietly. "How so?" I asked. "Well, from our conversations, it seems like she's never really had too much of a family, but when she moved in with you and your family, she started to feel like she was part of a family for the first time. Then this situation started happening, and the two of you were thrown out. Then her mom tried to take her back, and now this thing-" Aiko waved her arm back in the direction where we last saw Yuko. "Started happening, and I think that it's all starting to get to her head. I honestly think that before, she felt like she could tell you anything but now…it seems like she's starting to put a wall up." Aiko said, finishing her little speech.

I felt like my heart had dropped. Is this really why Akira has been so secluded? What is wrong with her? Aren't we supposed to be in a commitment together? I thought that she knew that. Apparently not.

Aiko and I arrived to the Third music room and I noticed Akira wasn't there. I walked over to Tamaki. "Hey, have you seen Akira?" I asked. Tamaki shook his head, and a worried expression flashed onto his face. "Do you think something's wrong?" Tamaki asked. "Kyoya-senpai, I did see Yuko and some girls walking with her outside a moment ago." Renge said. I slapped my forehead with my hand. "Damn it!" I said, turning and starting toward the door. "Kyoya, what's going on?" Tamaki asked. "That girl has been harassing Akira!" I said, spinning to face Tamaki. "Alright, let's hurry and find her!" Tamaki said. The rest of the host club agreed and they split up to search around the school.

"Takeshi, something interesting is going to happen, right?" Honey asked, looking at Mori.

"Yeah."

—*Tamaki*—

Anxious. That's the word. I felt anxious. I mean, sure, I've only known Akira for three months, but I'm worried about her. I mean, she is my half-sister after all. Why shouldn't I be worried?

—*Akira*—

Moments earlier…

As I walked out of one of the girls' bathrooms, I heard the familiar voice of Yuko. I turned to face her and she was smiling an extremely suspicious smile. "What do you want?" I asked, feeling ice in my veins. Yuko slightly pouted and looked down, her arms behind her back. "I…I wanted to apologize to you." She said quietly. I crossed my arms. "Just why would I except your apology?" I asked. "Maybe because I never apologize. I just figured…that I should to you, since you are with Kyoya." Yuko said. I sighed. "Fine, apology accepted. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get back to the club room." I said, attempting to walk past Yuko. "W-wait! I wanted to show you something." She said. "What is it?" I asked. "It's…outside." Yuko said. I groaned. "Fine." I said, starting to follow her. As we walked, three other girls joined us. "Well crap. Of course this is what I figured it would be."

The girls led me out back close to a shed and I crossed my arms. "What did you want to show me?" I asked. Yuko and one of the girls walked into the shed and called me and I let out a long sigh, following them. I immediately heard the door lock and I glared at Yuko. "Okay, cut the crap. We both know that you want to bitch me out." I snapped. Yuko smirked. "Well well. Someone is a little bit smart." She said. I raised an eyebrow. "That's the best you can come up with?" I asked. Yuko grabbed my wrist and spun so that her back was to the door and I was where she previously was. "You really need to learn your place, don't you?" She asked, squeezing my wrist. I smiled sweetly at her. "Well, at least you know yours. A brainless fangirl who blindly gets what she wants, unaware of the hardships normal people need to go through. You've had everything handed to you on a silver platter, but the one thing that you really want, you can't have. And do you know why? It's because he's already taken." I said.

Yuko let go of my wrist and shoved me back. I felt my side hit the edge of something; I assume a counter; and I inhaled sharply. The other girl switched between looking out the window and watching Yuko and I. "You don't understand!" Yuko screamed. "I've worked too hard and for too long to try to get close to Kyoya-senpai and Tamaki-senpai! I can't have someone like you take them away from me!" She snapped. Yuko grabbed my shoulders and slammed me into a nearby wall. Yuko tore my blazer off, the best that she could. The other girls' eyes widened, and she started to fumble with the window, apparently trying to open it. "Well, Miss Suoh. I did some digging of my own." She said. I looked at her, showing confusion on my face. "I found out something pretty interesting. It's about you…and your recent doctor appointments." Yuko said. My eyes grew and I heard the window open and the other girl tumble out of it, and she started shouting as she ran off.

—*Tamaki*—

The host club, a teacher and I searched around the school grounds. I heard some shouting and looked to see one of the girls that was walking with Akira and Yuko not too long ago running toward us and shouting. She stopped in front of us and started panting. "Yuko…she's going to do something to Akira…!" She wheezed. I looked at Kyoya. "They're in…an old shed…" She said in between her breaths. "Okay, show us where they are."

—*Akira*—

I did the first thing on my mind; raising my leg and kicking Yuko in the stomach. She stumbled back and looked at me in surprise, before her face darkened. "Oh, so you don't mind others knowing? I guess that won't be so hard." She said, shoving me back into the wall and holding me there with her arm on my neck. "You know what Akira? You really have a way of pissing me off." She hissed. I glared at Yuko as she pulled her fist back and launched it into my face. It didn't hurt; if anything, it felt like a nudge. Yuko pulled her fist back again, when we heard the door to the shed opening, and light flooded the shed, temporarily blinding both of us. "There they are!"

Renge?

I felt someone pull Yuko away and hands on my shoulders. As soon as my eyes readjusted to the newly-lighted shed, I realized that Kyoya was in front of me, and outside of the shed, Renge and a teacher were standing in front of Yuko and the other two girls. "K-Kyoya?" I asked. "Are you alright? You're probably going to be bruised from that punch…" Kyoya said softly. "I…I'm fine Kyoya." I said, smiling. Kyoya pulled me into his arms and I quickly drew in a breath when he touched just above my left hip. I pulled away and gently touched where that cabinet had hit; wincing at the new bruise. Kyoya noticed and spun me around, despite my protests, and looked at the spot I just touched. He cursed. "Akira, you're bleeding." He said. "W-what? I just hit a cabinet, right? I shouldn't be bleeding." I said quickly, looking around. I then saw what I hit. It wasn't a cabinet; but instead being the edge of a metal desk. I looked at the spot on my shirt that was covering the spot that was hit, and noticed some blood. "It doesn't look like you were cut deep, but we still need to get you to the nurse before she leaves." Kyoya said. "A-Alright." I said, turning back to Kyoya. He smiled at me and quickly kissed me. "I'm just glad that you're not hurt too bad." He said softly. I smiled playfully as we walked out of the shed, and held my now button-less blazer. "Kyo, come on. What do ya take me for?" She asked. Kyoya smiled and ruffled my hair. "A moron."

—*Kyoya*—

Akira walked into our room and I looked at her over my laptop. "Do you want to talk about it now?" I asked as she sat next to me. Akira sighed, closing her eyes. "Talk about what?" She asked quietly. "Akira, you know what I'm talking about." I said, closing my laptop and setting on the nightstand close to me. Akira looked at me and I sighed. "How long has this harassment been going on?" I asked. Akira looked away. "Ever since…we told Tamaki. After that, you guys were fighting, and some girls at the school…they started to blame me." She said softly. My heart sank at the sound of her voice. "I…I didn't know how to handle it. They started to…to harass me whenever I was alone. I…didn't want you to worry about it, so I didn't tell you. I told Aiko, and she told me to tell you…but…I couldn't bring myself to. You already had enough on your plate with everything that's been happening. I…didn't want to be a burden to you, Kyoya." Akira said, her voice cracking and tears falling onto the legs of her pants. I sighed and pulled Akira close. "You idiot! Why do you try to keep everything to yourself? It doesn't matter how small the problem may be, I'll be there for you and we'll get through it together. That's what couples do, right?" I asked. Akira grabbed onto my shirt and sniffled. "Y-Yeah…I guess you're right Kyoya…I'm sorry…If I have another problem, I promise I'll tell you, okay?" Akira said, looking at me. I felt myself smile back at her and kissed her forehead. "It's a promise." I said. Akira smiled and kissed me back, as someone knocked and opened our door. "Hey guys, I think…" Tamaki started, stopping when he saw us. He slowly backed out of the room and closed the door behind him. Akira blinked. "Kyoya, I think we broke him again."


PSH Akira, you need to talk to people more.

Review please!
