Ch 6 Back To Normal

"Tamaki," started the girl.

"What is it Haruhi?"

"What do you mean you'll tell me when it doesn't matter anymore? Why do I have to wait?"

Tamaki thought about it a moment.

"I just don't think you want to hear about it. It's just, embarrassing to say."

"Well what is it about?"

"It's just," Tamaki hesitated, thinking how to avoid the subject, "It's this dream I've been having off and on,"

"A dream about me?" questioned the other.

"Well," he looked away, "yah."

"Well, if it's about me, don't you think I should know about it?"

"Can't you just drop it Haruhi, please?"

"No," she stated taking a step closer to him, causing him to take a step back, "If we're going to have a relationship then I want you to be open with me. You've never had problems speaking your mind before, even if it was the most insane idea. Remember when you thought I was going to leave Ouran for our neighboring all girls' school? You managed to get everyone to dress like a girl and convince them to be both girl and guy for me so I would have more female interaction. I didn't know the reason at first and I still think it's hilarious you actually did it. You even got Kyoya involved," she laughed at the memory, "But my point is, no matter what you have always spoken your mind. Off and on for the past month, I've been feeling like your keeping your thoughts to yourself. And I didn't think you were capable of it but I think your keeping your feelings to yourself," she accused, pointing to his face.

Tamaki hid his eyes behind his hair to hide the emotions playing on his face.

"Tamaki?" she questioned.

"I'm afraid," admitted the other.

Haruhi thought about his words for a moment.

"What are you afraid of?"

"I've never been in love before. This really is my first time and I've afraid of messing it up with you."

"Tamaki," she gasped.

"I'm afraid that I'm going threw a change and I don't know if you'll like it or not."

"What kind of change?"

"Well, maybe it's always been there and I haven't realized it but," he turned his visibly blushing face from her gaze, "I'm having strangely sensational dreams about you lately."

Haruhi's face brightened when she realized his confession.

"I can see why you feel embarrassed about it, Tamaki. I really had no idea."

"I just don't want to frighten you away or make you uncomfortable."

"I had no idea that you really are a pervert," finished the other.

"What-?" he gaped, feeling like he took a tumble to the floor with a bolder crashing on his head.

"Well that would explain why you haven't kissed me until now, you were afraid of taking it too far. And also why you were calling my name in your sleep, definitely a sigh of a perverse mind," she nodded at her own spoken thoughts.

"So you're not completely wierded out by this?"

"Well I think it's a bit strange, but no. Isn't it normal, I mean it is a form of attraction?"

"So you're completely fine with this? I've been hiding it all away because I thought you'd leave but you mean, you don't mind?"

"I'm not going to say it doesn't make me a little uncomfortable. But I'm glad you told me. So now maybe you'll go back to the old Tamaki?"

"About that," started the other gathering his thoughts, "When enjoying a woman's company, I would naturally treat her like a princess, but you said, since day one, you didn't want me to treat you like I treat the club guests from school. How am I supposed to be when I'm with you?"

"Just be your self Tamaki."

"But I'm always myself, that's what I don't get."

"Tamaki, I've realized when we're doing things away from school you're more relaxed and there's a certain calmness about you. It's your comfort zone when you're having fun with our friends. You already live a care-free life style, so just don't think about how to make your self my prince. Just be yourself and you already are my prince," she smiled sweetly.

Tamaki hugged her tight.

"Oh my god, you are so cute!" he squealed.

(That's the Tamaki I love, nice and insane.)

Haruhi caught her breath when he let her go.

"And for being my cute girl, I'm going to take you out tonight!" he winked, "What do you want to do Haruhi, anything you want, you name it and it's yours!"

Tamaki started to babble on about al the things they can do together an Haruhi watched him almost over whelmed but glad to have him back to normal.

"How about a walk, then the museum?" suggested Haruhi earning a bright smile from her prince.

"Walk and Museum it is!" agreed Tamaki.
