Diclaimer: Do not own Ouran Highschool Host Club
Tamaki's Pov:
Waiting at Kyouya's house he tugged his scarf closer to keep in the warmth, he remembered his encounter at the office and frowned a little. The secretary had been adamant about not letting him in and when he stubbornly refused to leave the secretary had ignored him. Rubbing his hands together he sighed in relief when he noticed a car pull up and park itself.
What he didn't expect was to see the secretary getting out of the drivers seat and heading straight toward the guard on duty. When they approached he figured he would have to go to the office tomorrow after all. Walking to his car his eyes connected with the dark figure emerging from the passengers seat. Seeing his best friend like that hurt and as he drove away he was surprised to see the secretary entering Kyouya'a house.
Picking up his cell he called the Hitachian Twins, they were renowned for knowing everything about everyone. Dialing the phone number he blinked and smiled when he heard the familiar voice.
"Oi Tamaki!"
Laughing he turned into the apartment complex him and his wife now lived in, after a few minutes of chit chat he asked what was really on his mind.
"Have you been in contact with Kyouya lately?"
The silence at the other end of the phone made him worry, usually they weren't that quiet and were willing to disclose large amounts of information especially embarrassing kinds.
"Tamaki none of us have talked to him since graduation."
This bit of information shocked him, sure he hadn't been able to call him from France but he thought that was an international thing. Taking a deep breath he prepared to say good-bye while fishing out his keys to get into the apartment.
"But we have been talking to his secretary."
Blinking he couldn't help the small bit of jealousy at the thought of the other younger person now enjoying Kyouya's attention. Pushing that aside he waited, they couldn't be saying that for nothing.
"From what we know Kyouya has been busy with his bussiness. You heard of Pheonix Corp, Onyx Industries, Ootori Medial right?"
"Yeah they are all major corporations all over the world."
Laughter at the other end of the line made him chuckle as well kissing Haruhi on the cheek before walking to make some tea.
"They were all taken over by Kyouya's company."
Freezing he couldn't help the smile on his face, so Kyouya had exceeded even his father! Proud of his friend he poured the hot water looking at his wife. She was pregnant and before she was to far along he wanted the old host club members to get together once more. But there was only one obstacle in the way, his best friend the one who solved all of the problems was now the problem to be solved.
"Could you two help me I need to speak to him and I keep getting blocked."
Double the laughter over the phone told him the other twin joined in on the conversation.
"We'd love to when and where?"
Smiling to himself he decided to call Honey and Mori as well they should all be able to get Kyouya back.

Cat's Pov:
The sound of his alarm woke him up and he groaned looking at the time. In big bold red numbers it told him that he would not be getting back to sleep.
"5:00am just enough time to get ready before Kyouya-sama gets up."
Moving off his bed he walked to short distance to his bathroom and after taking a shower he dried his hair with a towel. Picking up his cell he stared at it for a couple of seconds considering whether or not to call his sister to see how the family was. Flipping it open he jumped when he heard a pound on his door. Guiltily he put his phone down and throwing the towel into the laundry basket he opened the door.
The flustered look the gaurd from the gate made had him sighing, what could possibly go wrong at 5:00 in the morning?
"Cat-san we need your help!"
Walking out he slipped his cell into his pocket while walking the short distance to the stairs, descending them he forced back a groan. There smiling idiotically was Tamaki Suoh, Hikaru & Koaru Hitachiin, Mistukuni Haninozuka, and Takashi Morinozuka. Knowing that Kyouya would be displeased and needing to get things in order he started walking towards them.
'Forgive me Kyouya-sama if I am not able to get rid of them before you wake up!'
The twins smiled suggestively at him but he just brushed it off, he knew exactly how they got in. The childlike adult and the tall silent man standing there, keeping his face calm and stoic he greeted them.
"To what do we owe the honor at 5:00 am in the morning?"
The twins grinned devilishly but at least Suoh had the decency to look abashed. Knowing that he wouldn't be able to start breakfast with them here without some serious consequences he sighed.
"We would like to speak to Kyouya."
He forced away his sarcastic tone for a more polite one.
"I'm afraid he is still asleep where I'm sure you all should be right now instead of harrying the poor guards and waking up an extremely busy man."
Holding up his hand he didn't wait for the excuses and apologies only motioned them to follow him, quickly he was formulating a plan he now had exactly 45 minutes before Kyouya-sama woke up. That was all he would need.
"Please have a seat while I make breakfast, you are hungry correct?"
The charming smile had no effect as he remembered his sister's abilities to smile at him like that one minute then throw a plate or glass or other breakable object at him the next. The other's nodded as well and as he started breakfast. At exactly the moment his boss would be awake and dressed he sent him a text, thanking the heavens that he had brought his cell.
Kyouya's Pov:
Waking up he smelled breakfast and smiled knowing that today hopefully would be a peaceful day. When he was about to open his door he blinked at the sound of his cell ringing. Picking it up he flipped it open expertly and read the text stiffening.
'Kyouya-sama the host club is in the living room, please go out the back where I had the gaurd prepare your car. I will try to get rid of them while you are gone.'
Snarling to himself he slammed his phone closed and instead of leaving he relaxed his face and went down to meet them. He knew his expression was like ice. As he heard laughter his mood decreased into something his competitors never wanted to see. How dare they come into his house and have his secretary cook for them!
When he walked in the room everything went silent all except for the sound of Cat expertly using the stove to it's fullest capabilities.
"Don't bother with breakfast Cat they are leaving."
When Tamaki stood a familiar pout of his face he ignored it and picked up his cell to call the guard at the gate.
"Prepare our guests cars and have them ready at the front door they are currently about to leave."
Snapping his phone shut he ignored the slight frown on Tamaki's face, fool king! Walking into the kitchen he was surprised when Cat calmly handed him a glass of orange juice and two motrin for his oncoming head-ache. He about lost it when the twins suddenly latched on to his secretary, who was looking at them curiously.
When his hand was grabbed and he was tugged to sit down he felt his anger flare, what were they doing? Calming down he forcefully pulled his arm away from Tamaki. Sitting in his favorite chair he heard Cat's soft mummer of something then suddenly he was right there a plate full of food ready for him. Taking the chopsticks he frowned when Cat served the rest of them ignoring the glare currently directed at his back.
Looking into the kitchen he was surprised to see both twins stunned into silence and cherry red. Wondering what had happened he ignored it for now, right then he needed to find a way to get them out of his house.
"What do you want Mr. Suoh?"
The flinch at his cold tone made him relax some so it was still affective even after all these years.
"We couldn't talk to you so we decided to come to your house to invite you to come to our high-school reunion!"
At the choking sound in the kitchen he looked up to see Cat slightly pale with guilt in his eyes. When he finally sat down with his own food he quietly apologized.
"Forgive me Kyouya-sama I had received the invitation several months ago but I did not think you wished to be bothered with such a trivial thing."
Nodding he relaxed back into his chair letting the light glint off his glasses.
"You are correct I do not have time for such things, I specifically allow you to filter the mail for that purpose. But if going will keep you from bothering me from now on I will go."
Tamaki smiled and Kyouya bit back a choke on his food, looking at his secretary he relaxed once more. There was at least one person he could rely on and if he had to go through with this thing he at least had that backing.
Koaru's Pov:
He and Hikaru both grabbed Cat knowing that he would only get in the way of Tamaki's convincing.
'Not that it's going to work.'
When the secretary watched as his boss walked away suddenly stiffening about something, he felt a small tickle in his ear. The body pressed up against his was not his brother's and he was suddenly very conscious of the man he was holding onto. The hot breath on his ear made him shiver while the whispered words made him flush and pull back.
"I've never..."*
He watched in astonishment as his brother let go as well when something was whispered in his ear. Keeping a safe distance from the secretary he couldn't help the small smile inside.
'He's good, he could have been in the host club!'
But the flush hadn't left his face and his twin looked exactly the same hesitantly he asked.
"What did he say to you?"
The other twin shook his head his face turning redder.
"What did he say to you?"
Flushing even more he stuttered.
"He t-t-told me he ....."*
His twin gasped then looking away he murmured.
"He told me he ....."*
Choking he blinked when a glass of water was given to him, looking up he almost dropped it when he saw the secretary, when he did nothing more than give his brother a glass as well he relaxed slightly. But he didn't let his guard down, this secretary was nearly as scary a Kyouya! Sipping he kept a careful watch on the secretary as he severed the others, remembering converstations he had had with the younger man.
Oh sure they had all tried to contact Kyouya after graduation especially when Tamaki was getting married. But the fool was to in love to even notice that his best friend was not there to be the best man. He had his brother but Kyouya had only had Tamaki, when that had been taken away Kyouya had buried himself in work. But he had noticed that since the new secretary Kyouya was more relaxed than usual.
He had even come to a party that the twins had thrown last year, of course his secretary was with him but Koaru didn't think it was anything more than work related. Sure him and his brother had known and even talked to Kyouya himself. But they hadn't said anything to Tamaki because somewhere deep inside they to felt that betrayal. When he had been stopped from leaving the first time they had been able to forgive, but the impulsive idiot had left a second time this time without even a warning.
Sure they had gone to the wedding and smiled and joked but deep inside was a wound that their friend had left. They could understand Kyouya's coldness but they were also willing to forgive their friend.
