A.N: Sorry for the long wait! Here it is. Enjoy.
Chapter 14: The Aftermath
What us only a couple hours, feels like an eternity dragging on. The two have been silent in the closet, ever since Kyoya declared that he will have Haruhi. They hear a click from the door. They glance at each other, then back to the door. They both stand up at the exact same moment.
"Ahh!" Haruhi starts to fall; he sleepy doom disabling her to stand. She shuts her eyes tightly, waiting to impact with the ground. But it doesn't come. Instead of the ground, warm muscular arms wrap around her waist. Haruhi slowly opens her eyes, just barely able to see Kyoya through the darkness. Her face heats up. "Thanks, and sorry. My foot is asleep and it caught me off guard," she explains.
Kyoya only nods, and releases her. He then twists the door knob, and gently pushe it open.
"Hi ya Kyo! Haru! It looks like you two sure had fun," Honey giggles, holding up a mirror half his size.
Both Kyoya and Haruhi's clothes are wrinkled and out of place. Their hair all tussled to add to their image. For the always professional looking Kyoya Ootori, his appearance right now would shock and frighten any passerby. They quickly fix themselves to look more proper.
"W-well, maybe if you hadn't pushed him onto me and make us fall, we wouldn't look this way," Haruhi protests, her cheeks turning rosy once again.
"So you do admit it, you did fall for me," Kyoya says playfully and winks at her.
Haruhi's eyes widen at his flirtatiousness in front of their senior. "I did not!" she denies the accusation. "Anyway, it was more like I fell because of you... Never mind, that still doesn't sound quite right," she sighs, exasperated.
Kyoya chuckles, his laughter rumbling out. "You, my dear, are a terrible liar. You need to do much better than that to fool me."
Honey excitedly watches the two love birds interaction with one another. He hugs Usa as they continue.
Haruhi childishly sticks out her tongue at Kyoya, forgetting about that the lollita boy is witnessing them being together. "I am not!" she argues.
"If it helps, Takashi, Usa, and I approve," Honey happily states, hugging his stuff bunny while he sways back and.
Haruhi looks down at Honey, blinking a few times, not expecting himto say such a thing. "When are we to depart?" she questions, looking back up to Kyoya.
"In ten minutes. The butler should be packing our belongings in the limo right about now," Kyoya replies coolly.
Haruhi checks her appearace, one more time, in the mirror on the wall. She looks presentable enough that it satisfies her. "Then in that case, I think I will go wait by the car," with that, she turns on her heel and walks away from her two seniors.
As soon as Haruhi descends from the stair case, she hears a loud scream. "Haruhi!" Tamaki comes running up to Haruhi, and squishes her in a tight gripped hug. He spins her around multiple times before setting her back down onto the ground. "My precious daughter, where have you been?"
"I've been... Around," Haruhi answers hesitantly. She quickly dodges another hug from Tamaki, but bumps into two chests behind her. She sighs, knowing exactly who they are.
"Hey Haruhi, did you have a nice rest?" the Hitachiins question in sync. They lead her to the car, with Koaru's arm around her shoulders and Hikaru's around her waist. Mischievious grins playing on both of the menicing twins' lips. Their golden cat eyes glint with a playful secret which is shared just between the two brothers.
"Um... It was good, I got plenty of rest," she replies, noticing the boys' expression, wondering what the two may be up to this time.
"Good, because the newest model for Hitachiin fashion line must be well rested," they say together again, fist pumping on hand in the air while they wiggle the fingers on their other hand for more effect.
"No," Haruhi deadpans.
"But-"
"NO."
"Haruhi, come on!" the twins say quickly before she can interrupt them again.
"I said No," she refuses once again, crossing her arms over her chest, as if trying to make the statement also seen instead of just heard.
"I think Haru would look cute as a model," Honey comments from behind the three arguing friends, standing next to Kyoya.
"We'll take you out for a 'thank you' dinner. You can have all the fancy tuna you can eat; our mother really needs one more model for this photoshoot," Koaru pleads.
Haruhi looks from one twin to the other. They are both pleading with their gorgous cat-like eyes. "I'll think about it," she finally replies, sighing because she knows exactly what she is getting herself into.
"Yay!" the twins cheer, sandwitching Haruhi into a hug and rubbing their cheeks against her's.
"Master Kyoya, the limo is packed," the driver informs them all.
"Thank you, Milton. Let's start heading back," Kyoya replies. A light growl is forming in the back of his throat from the twins irritating him; he does not like the way they are always all over Haruhi.
Everyone gathers into the large stretch limo. Haruhi gets sandwitch between the twins. Kyoya sits right across from her, right beside Tamaki and Mori, who is sitting next to his cousin.
The twins keep their hold on Haruhi, and continues to rub their cheeks on her's. Somehow, Haruhi ends up sitting in between Hikaru's legs. She ignores the two brothers who are pawing all over her.
Kyoya glares at the twins from above his laptop. He can barely contain his anger from doing something as he watches the twins practically molesting Haruhi. She doesn't even try to stop them! 'That should be me holding Haruhi, not those idiots,' Kyoya jealously thinks.
"Hey, what's poking me?" Haruhi innocently questions, turning her head to Hikaru.
Hikaru's face is cherry red from embarrassment. "Um, sorry," he apologizes so quietly that it was barely audible.
Koaru snickers at his brother's arousel and embarrassment. This has never happened to Hikaru before, that Koaru has a hard time resisting the urge to tease his brother.
Kyoya glares daggers at the guilty redheadded twin, knowing exactly what is poking Haruhi. Man, if looks could kill, Hikaru would already be six feet down under.
"It's still poking me, can you move around?" Koaru bursts out laughing, practically rolling on the floor of the limo. "What's so funny?" Haruhi asks, confussed.
Trying to keep his cool, Kyoya moves his glasses up on his face to hide his emotions. "Haruhi, I advise that you remove yourself to another seat, " he suggests.
Haruhi's eyes widen into the size of dinner plates, finally realizing what in the world is going on before her. She quickly moves into the only open seat left, which is between the twins. "Hikaru! you perve!" she gently slaps him on the arm in disbelief.
The still blushing boy laughs nervously. "Sorry, I couldn't help it; you're just too cute," he rubs the back of his neck. He looks down at his shoes, refusing to look her way. The rest of the car ride back was silent, except for Kyoya typing away on his laptop.
The driver drove to Tamaki to his mansion first. "Avoir mes amis," he waved to his friends as they drove off to drop the next host member off at their mansion as well.
Next were Honey and Mori, who were taken to Honey's home. Honey bounces away, talking to Usa about eating cake and how he can't believe how his younger brother doesn't like sweets.
When the driver drove up to the Hitachiin estate, the twins sandwitch Haruhi into a hug. "Pervert," Haruhi deadpanned. All the twins do is laugh at her reaction. Hikaru is over the embarrassment now, and will tease her about that accident another time he sees her. They then leave the limo to do what they do best, trick people or design clothes; they are very talented.
The ride to Haruhi's appartment is silent, even Kyoya's laptop doesn't desturb the quiet; he had turned it off when the twins left. They both look out of the window, waiting to see the commoners' housing.
When they finally arrive at the appartment building, Haruhi sighs. "Well, here's my place," she states the obvious.
Kyoya ghostly steps out of the vehical. He then stretches his hand for Haruhi to take. Without any hesitation, she takes his hand. He then takes Haruhi's backpack from the driver, and escots her to her appartment door.
When they get to her door, Haruhi takes her bag from Kyoya. "Um, thanks for the... Interesting weekend." Before Kyoya has the chance to reply, she goes on her tippy toes to kiss him lightly on the lips. She pulls away before he has time to react and deepen the kiss. ``See you in school tomorrow,`` she walks into her home and closes the door behind her. She leans agains the door, feeling her flushed face.
``My Baby Girl Is Finally Home!``
