I don't own Ouran Highschool Host Club.
Ch.30
It was later in the car the Haruhi was able to piece together what had happened. She had spoken to Ranka's doctor and called the bar. After getting his paycheck, Ranka had been mugged on his way home and had chased the guy down. She didn't have to ask why he'd done it. He, like her, hated depending on people and wanted to pay for the rest of Haruhi's hospital bills himself. They also needed to buy more food and pay a couple bills. The guy that Ranka had been chasing ran into traffic and he followed. A car had tried to stop and slammed into both of them. Ranka had went through the windshield and the other guy was pinned under the car and killed. Because he had Ranka's wallet, they thought it was Ranka. No one was able to give a definite recovery time, but it looked like it would take months. She had to stay with Takashi.
Neither would look at each other on the way back to Morinozuka manor. Haruhi ground her teeth and clenched her fists in fury. How dare he! Takashi glanced over at her, but held his tounge. If he said anything now she'd probably rip his head off. The ride was quickly over. The car crunched up the gravel driveway and had barely stopped before Haruhi jumped out. She stormed to the door and left him in the car. When he finally entered the house, she had disappeared.
"Haruhi?" He yelled.
She didn't answer. Gwen bustled from a room down the hall.
"Mr. Morinozuka, welcome home."
"Thank you Gwen. Where did Haruhi go? I need to speak to her."
"She went back to her room. She was rather upset actually."
He took off down the hall and up the stairs after her. When he got to her room, the door was locked. He had a master key to every room in the house. He knew that this was an invasion of her privacy, but he couldn't stand the guilt that he felt from hurting her. He put the key in the lock and turned slowly. The door clicked open and he entered. Haruhi was standing by the window with her arms folded across her chest and her back to him.
"Haruhi please forgive me. I thought I was helping you."
...
He got a little closer," At least turn around and look at me."
...
He was now directly behind her," I..."
"I hate you Mori. Please leave me alone."
He rested his hand on her shoulder.
Her words were venomous, "Don't touch me!"
He lifted his hand but put it back. He needed to touch her.
Haruhi spun around and shoved him away," I said don't touch me!"
She ran from the room. He wanted to follow her, but the best thing would be to let her go. She needed time to process things. He didn't see her at dinner, so he had Gwen bring her dinner to her room. They had school the next day and he hoped that she would be willing to see him in the morning.
Mori woke up to his alarm clock as usual and began getting ready. He hoped that Haruhi would at least look at him today. Breakfast was waiting at the table, but there was only one place set.
"Where is Haruhi's place?"
"I'm sorry sir. She requested breakfast in her room."
"That's alright. Make sure she is ready for school."
"Yes, sir."
He finished his breakfast, grabbed his things, and got in the car. A few minutes later Haruhi climbed in the other side. She looked at him, but she didn't say anything. They rode in silence.
Mori slightly turned his body toward her,"Can you just answer one question for me?"
...
"Do you still love me?"
"Maybe I should have chosen Tamaki or Kyoya over you."
Her words stung. He stopped trying to communicate with her. If she really felt that way, she didn't need him. They arrived at school and Haruhi left him. She was instantly surrounded by guys and girls that she had hosted in the past. She was taken away by her crowd and he went to the club room. The other hosts were sitting around a table talking. They had heard of Haruhi and Takashi's situation.
Honey seemed cheerful," Mori! Where's Haru-chan?"
"Off with her adoring crowd," Mori frowned.
Hikaru sneered,"Why are you so bitter? You should be elated. You have Haruhi all to yourself every day... and night."
"Shut the hell up Hikaru!"
"Don't talk to my brother like that," Kaoru yelled across the table.
Tamaki looked around worriedly," Can we all just calm down for a second. What happened Mori? This isn't you."
"Haruhi hates me. You know about her dad, right? Well I thought it would be a nice surprise to show her that I had found him and that he was alive. It didn't turn out the way I planned. She said that she hated me and would rather have you or Kyoya."
Kyoya sat back in his chair. He couldn't suppress his jealousy," Good. You don't deserve her."
Takashi rose from his chair and tackled Kyoya.
