Disclaimer: I do NOT own Ouran in any way

Okay, I've been working dead hard on making this chapter longer than usual, so enjoy!

Tamaki P.O.V

I still can't quite believe it. My darling Haruhi has gone, and no-one has any idea what has happened. Kyoya and the others have been avoiding me as much as possible. Why aren't they there when I need them? MY girlfriend has just been kidnapped, and they act like they couldn't care less. Are they really my friends? I would care them if anything like this happened to them. I have taken to sitting in this little copse at the back of the school. All the cherry blossom has gone, so it looks a bit grim now, but it's secluded and quiet.

Today I found a purse behind the bench in the copse. It was Haruhi's, and she'd been looking for this for weeks. I ran my fingers over the fabric and the little embroidered flower in the centre. Tears welled up in my eyes. I didn't know where she was, how she was and whether she would be okay. She must be terrified. I am, and I'm not the one who's been kidnapped.

Okay, so my trip out to try and find her was unsuccessful, but I know the police are working round the clock to find her. And not just the commoners police, Kyoya's family private police force that are the best in the business. Well I am not going to pay the Ootori family half my money and not get the elite. I have no idea where Haruhi could be. What conditions could she be in?

"I know nothing Tamaki. I am sorry son. You and your friends must miss her."

"I do miss her. I love her father. We are a couple..."

"WHAT? I mean, well done son, I'm glad you have someone. We are all worrying to death about Haruhi. You know she's a commoner?"

"Yes I know! I have been to her house," I shudder at the memories, "Her dad is a tranny, but he's nice all the same."

"Transvestite? Ohhh...but as long as you're happy Tamaki."

"I am, well, I was..."

All through this conversation I could see a glint in my father's eye. Like he knew something. I hope he isn't hiding anything from me. We were never super close, but he doesn't keep secrets from me.

Kyoya is still fretting about this robbery. I have told him over and over that we will make the money back in no time. But he is developing dark circles around his eyes and his face looks paler everyday. He says he is fine but I don't believe him. Hunny is the same. Except he has red rimmed eyes as if he's been crying. Hunny would cry if a plant died, let alone his friend being kidnapped. Our clients feel sorry for us all and are coming more and more to cheer us up. Which I suppose is good for business. NO Tamaki! You are worried about Haruhi, and not letting extra business change your feelings for her.

Kyoya P.O.V

I keep telling myself it's a coincidence about Haruhi's kidnapping. But I know it's not. I should never have done it. What possessed me? I wouldn't dream of stealing usually! I hate myself for what I did and I will never forgive myself for putting Haruhi and Tamaki through this. And no-one has any idea where Haruhi is and how she is. My family's private police force are trying hard and I reassure Tamaki of that everyday. I should tell Tamaki what I did. I have to! But I can't can I? What would he do to me? I have to be honest with him. He is my best friend, and has been for years and I would hate it if he kept anything this big from me.

"Kyoya? Is that you?" Oh no. It's mum, she must have heard me come in.

"Um, yes, hello mum..."

"What's with the gloomy-ness?"

"WHAT'S WITH TH- Oh god mum! My friend has just been kidnapped, I have stolen from the school-" I clapped my hand over my mouth. Why did I have to say that?

"You did WHAT? Stole? I'm sorry about Haruhi, but why did you steal? And from the school as well! The Suohs are our biggest friends and now they will hate us! We'll have to tell them of course, I couldn't keep something like this from them..." And so she went on and on until I stopped her.

"Mum. Mr Suoh knows. And I think he kidnapped Haruhi as well."

"He wouldn't! No, no, no, I know that family and they're the nicest people I've met. You're talking rubbish Kyoya."

I talked her through the conversation I had had with Mr. Suoh. He eyes grew wider with every sentence and she was hanging on my every word. If I started to mumble then the would shout at me to speak up.

"Well, well, well, this puts a whole new light on things... I didn't know he had it in him Suoh. Though he is very organised so I could see him pulling it off to perfection...and I can't see you stealing just to help me and your father. Although Tamaki is paying us masses to investigate..." She went off again and I left her to it. She will be going on about this for days until she realises she should tell the police. But we can't, because I'm a thief.

This thought follows me round all evening. I can't concentrate through essays, I can't think about the Host Club, I can't even add up simple numbers. I should own up to this, but I can't bring myself to it. And every day that I don't tell, it's another day without Haruhi.

Okay OKAY! I admit it! I can't write long chapters! But I'm practising, so please keep reading! I wonder if anyone can work out what's going to happen next...
