Parents on a buisness trip and big brother in charge. His idea of being in charge is "stay out of my way and don't tell mom and dad or else..." Aki sighed has she laid down on her bed sketching. Her parents were out of town and her brother was meaner then ever. She had work to look forward but she wanted to do something.

She turned over to her side and grabbed her phone. "Hey Haru-chan, your on vacation huh...How bout I get you away from the host club and we have a normal day okay...Awesome, I'll see you later then, bye."

Aki smiled. She would hang out with Haruhi doing what ever. She needed some down time and Haruhi was just the person.

Aki looked at her phone is surprise. "Mitsukuni. Just him? Yeah, no problem. What about Takashi. Oh I see. Okay that's fine, thanks. See you two tomorrow then."

Aki stood the next morning sighing looking up and down the street for Haruhi or Mitsukuni. She wore a short black skirt, knee hight yellow socks, a long sleve black shirt, and a short sleeve yellow shirt, her hair was down with two pigtails on each side. She wore a litte black backpack.

Yes she was a little bit eariler, she wanted to get away from her brother so bad she rushed out a bit too early. She had also heard Mitsukuni wasn't a morning person. She sighed and was about to fall back on the floor when she saw Takashi walking to her.

She was suprise to see him but glad that she wasn't alone anymore. Haruhi's dad got sick she backed out in order to take care of him. Still there was Mitsukuni, but he wasn't in sight, it was just Takashi.

She bowed, "Good morning Takashi. Where is Mitsukuni? I thought it was just him today?"

"He's sick."

"Oh, well so is Ranka-chan. Guess it's just us huh. I don't know what to do, I thought we would be going to a whole bunch of sweet shops." Things were silent for a while. Aki smiled, "It's okay, if you want to go take care of Mitsukuni. I'll be fine on my own."

Takashi had considered it, but Mitsukuni had told him to go have fun. While Aki may have tried to hide her sadness with a smile, he saw through her. It was going to be a long day, but Mitsukuni told him not to come back, he had to go out. He even gave Takashi, The Eyes.

Takashi grabbed Aki's hand and started to walk. Aki was suprised at first. She walked faster to keep up with him. She wanted to ask him, what was going on, but figured it would be better to see what he did. She found him interesting. He was so quiet, yet he said so much in the simplest actions.

Haruhi poured some tea and sat across her table looking over and Honey who was happily eating cake. "So Honey-senpai, why did we lie to Mori-senpai and Aki." Normally Haruhi would not have agreed but Honey had given her The Eyes. She had caved.

"Because Haru-chan, Takashi thinks Aki-chan is really pretty, if I didn't do anything he wouldn't have talked to her at all."

"You think Mori-senpai likes Aki."

"I don't know but he should give it a chance. I just gave him a push." Honey giggled to himself has he ate his cake.

"This sounds like something Tamaki-senpai would come up with." Haruhi mumbled to herself. She hoped Aki would have a nice time, she didn't know how Mori-senpai would act on his own she sighed to herself and hoped for the best.

Takashi released Aki's hand when they had reached a museum. She was surprised that he would bring her to such a place. Did he know she liked art or did he like it to. She was about to reach into her backpack for money but Takashi had already given her a ticket. "Thank you." She smiled still a little stunned and walked in with him.

Takashi sat on a bench behind her has she got up close to a lot of the art. Her face had a huge smile on it. She was glad he brought her here. She was extremly happy. She had forgotten all about her perfect siblings and demanding parents. She was free to be what ever she wanted for just a few hours but it was enough.

When she had move farthur down Takashi got up and followed her. She really had forgotten about his presence every once in a while. She came a sat down next to him. "This place is great." She smiled at him. For a moment she saw the end ofhis lips turn up into a smile.

She heard some kids and turned to see a small group of kids, with big smiles listening intently at the adult who accompinated them. She quickly got out her skecht pad. "They just look so cute." Half way through her drawing they had moved on, still she saw them in her mind eye and continued to finsih the drawing. She stopped and looked at her work, she turned it to Takashi. "What do you think, did I capture them."

"Yeah."

She smiled and put her sketch book back. She stood up and grabbed his hand, "Come on there's still a whole bunch more." Aki pulled Takashi through most of the musuem.

Takashi's quiet company was what Aki needed. She felt safe. They walked out and Aki smiled. "That was really fun. Where to next?" Aki's stomach growled really loud. She blushed. "I guess I'm hungry."

Takashi took her hand again and started walking. She smiled at this. They walked until they reached a small restaurant. It was little and served traditional japanese food.

"Do you like this kind of food?" Asked Aki

"Yeah."

She smiled, "Me to!"

As they waited for their food it was quiet. "Um, Takashi, do you mind if I draw you?" She looked at him, he nodded in approval. She smiled and got her book out. It wasn't that bright in here but in the dim lighting Takashi looked perfect, she had to draw him.

It took a while, but she looked at the final out come and was quite happy with it. She turned it to him, "Do you like it."

His lips curved slightly up, "I like it."

She smiled at his response, the food arrive and they started eating. They didn't really talk. Aki understood that Takashi didn't talk much, but it wasn't arkward and she liked it. They steped out into the bright light. They walked down the street.

As they passed a cake shop Aki noticed the look in Takashi's face. She smiled he must of missed Mitsukuni very much. Haruhi said they never parted, he was always by his cousins side. While she was glad he was here she felt bad. She ran into the cake shop while Takashi stayed outside. She came out a few minutes later. "Haruhi said Mitsukuni likes strawberry cake, one should be delivered to him within the hour. I know your worried about him. I'm sure he's fine though." She smiled.

Takashi put his hand on top of her head, "Thank you."

She smiled, "So how bout we hit the mall next I need some new cloths, if you don't mind." He nodded and she lead him to the mall.

Aki lead Takashi into a few different stores, she finally found one that hand nice cloths. She tried a few on. Takashi gave her a thumps up on a few different outfit. At the end Aki five outfits, two pairs of shoes, a belt, and two jackets.

She got to the register and nearly fainted at the total. "Oh wow." She checked in her purse. She had used most of her cash on Mitsukuni's cake. "Most went to the cake, guess I could use my card." She was taking her card out and about to hand it over to the cashier when Takashi gave the girl his card instead.

"You don't need to do that Takashi, I got it really."

"it's nothing."

Aki sighed, He had so much money she guess that her little amount of cloths really wasn't a much to him, still it was weird, she barelyt knew the guy, it wasn't like he was her boyfriend and paying for her. She grabbed her bags and thank the cashier. "You have a such a sweet boyfriend." Aki blushed at the comment and didn't feel like correcting her, she thanked her again and walked out.

Takashi and Aki walked down the street eating ice cream. Aki smiled to herself and was glad to have a relaxing day out. They walked pass a store and in the window Aki saw a very cute bunny backpack. She thought back to what Haruhi had told her. Mitsukuni carried around a stuff bunny name Usa-chan. She wondered if he would like a cute little backpack.

She dragged Takashi inside. "Hi ma'am, can I get the bunny backpack in the window?" aki twitched at the price, she hoped it was a damn good backpack. She paid the lady who gave her the backpack in a white box with a red bow. "Here for Mitsukuni."

They walked out and in front a limo was waiting. Aki blinked, "I'm guessing this is yours huh?" Takashi nodded, she got in. The ride was silent but short. She got off at her house. "Thank you very much Takashi, I had a great time." She leaned in and kissed him on the cheek. "Bye, Tell Mitsukuni 'I hope you feel better."

Takashi looked after her has her limo pulled away with a very light blush on his cheek. He went to the Haninozuka estate to check on Mitsukuni. He went up to his room to find a white box and evidence of a cake once being there.

"Takashi! You're back, yeah. I got your cake. It was so good. Thanks." Takashi nodded. "Hey whats in the box."

He handed it over Honey who was absolutly delighted. "Takashi I love it!"

"It's from Aki."

"Really? She got this for me."

"Yes, she hopes you feel better."

Honey giggled, "Did you have fun Takashi." He nodded. "Good, I'm glad. Aki is so sweet. I love this!"

Takashi walked out of the bedroom. For someone who was sick Mitsukuni looked just fine. He actually looked like he was dying to go outside. For a second he wondered if Mitsukuni had pretended to be sick.

I'm still uncertain if Mori or Kyoya is right for her
I will gladly accept any thought on this
