The next morning Kyouya got up earlier than normal, startling half the staff. They knew this Ootori, and he did not to early if he could help it, so something must have been up.
Kyouya rolled his eyes and ignored the murmures and whispers and headed for his fathers office and knocked on the door lightly, waiting for an answer.
"Door's open" Yoshio called quietly from behind his desk and pausing from his typing to look up at the door.
"Ah, Kyouya, sit down" He said seeing his youngest son come in. "What is it?"
"Um...i have to ask you something" Kyouya began slowly, going to sit in front of his fathers desk and shift awkwardly in his seat.
"What about?" He asked, drawing his attention away from his laptop to look at Kyouya curiously.
"Its about Haruhi and myself..."He began slowly, looking down at his lap and shifting awkwardly again. "I was...well...i was planning on asking her to marry me..."He said in a quiet voice
"Did you get her pregnant?" Yoshio asked a little flatly frowning at Kyouya. "I approve of your relationship with Fujioka, but you both are much too young for children and-"
"No! God, no dad! I just want to have her marry me! She's not pregnant!" Kyouya nearly screetched flushing.
"Your sure? Kyouya...i know your a bright boy and all, but i would have expected you to have safe sex and all that to avoid something like this" Yoshio sighed and looked at his son, blinking once when he saw the teen blush a dark red, a rare thing for him. "And i figured you both would wait until marriage before doing anything..." Yoshio added with a shake of his head.
"No! Shes not pregnant! We use a condom everytime!" Kyouya said quickly, then clammed up, realizing a second too late what he had told to his father. He watched his fathers eyebrows raise in surprise and lean back in his chair.
"So...i guess dont have to have the talk with you then..."He said a little awkwardly, raising his hand to fix his glasses and look at Kyouya with quiet eyes.
"Dad...god...just forget i said anything...but...as i was saying before...i was planning to ask her to marry me tonight..." Kyouya said quietly, looking at his father.
"How are you planning to ask her?" Yoshio asked, and Kyouya silently thanked him for changing the subject before he replied. "Im taking her out to a nice dinner and out dancing...i was going to ask her then..."
Yoshio nodded, "That will be nice...have you asked Fujioka's father yet?" He asked, then smirked a little when he saw Kyouya sit up rigidly in his chair and freeze a little. "I think i will take that as a no...you should go now and speak with him" He said, dismissing Kyouya with that and going to open his laptop again.
Kyouya sighed heavily and stood up. He gave a little nod to his father before leaving and going to head to his girlfriends house to speak to Ranka.
Nearly an hour later, and one burning cheek after, Kyouya had Ranka's permission to marry his precious little girl. To Kyouya's relief, Haruhi had been out shopping with a friend of hers and hadnt been there to witness the conversation.. Ranka had slapped Kyouya and accused him of getting her pregnant and that was why he was planning to ask for Haruhi's hand. Kyouya had to, again, explain his reasons for wanting to marry the girl before Ranka finally agreed.
Kyouya stood up and extended his hand to Ranka to shake, but paused when the door opened and Haruhi walked in oblivious to Kyouyas presence for a few seconds. When she saw him, she blinkned a few times in surprise and went ot hide her shopping purchases behind her back. "Kyouya! What are you doing here?" She asked, looking from Kyouya to her father with a little curiously.
"I had some business to discuss with your father" Kyouya lied easily, smiling a little at Haruhi. "I was just about to leave actually, when you walked in" He added a little, looking at Ranka, who nodded.
They shook hands and Ranka gave a small threat to Kyouya that went unheard by Haruhi, before the two stepped back. "Pleasure doing business with you Kyouya" Ranka said using his manly fatherly voice, before backing up to go into his room and shut the door.
"Im sorry to rush in and out on you my love...but i have to go home and finalize some things before i come get you" Kyouya said softly going over to Haruhi and reaching up to cup her cheek lightly and smiling.
"Its fine...i have to get ready and everything anyways" She said softly smiling, leaning into his touch gently. "So...you'll come in a few hours?" She asked softly, looking up at him.
"I will...unless you need more time to get ready?" Kyouya asked, which he recieved a slight shake of head. "Then ill see you in three hours" He said leaning down to kiss her.
Haruhi moved closer to Kyouya as she kissed him back, her one hand snaking up to rest on the back of his neck lightly. When they parted, both sighed slightly. "Ill see you soon" She murmured before he left.
! Three Hours later !
Kyouya knocked on Haruhi's door, and fixed his tie and suit as he waited. Ranka opened the door and glanced at Kyouya and stepped back to let him in. "You look handsome Kyouya" Ranka complimented softly, smiling then looked back in the living room. "Haruhi will be out in a second"
Kyouya nodded a little. "Thank you...and thats fine, we have time" He said smiling, and went into the living room to wait for Haruhi. When she walked out, he froze slightly in awe of her.
She was wearing a long purple dress. The top was a strapless boddice with black and silver beading that lead into the waist. Below that, the skirt of the dress was ruffled, with a few of the beads scattered through out it, sparking slightly in the low lighting of the room. The color of the dress itself started out as dark violet then as it neared the bottom it lightened to a purple-lilac color. She was wearing a small silver necklace with a rose pendent and silver studded earings. What surprised Kyouya even more was she curled her hair slightly and was wearing just a touch of makeup.
"Haruhi...you look...wow...you look stunning" Kyouya breathed going over to her and touching her arms lightly and looking her over once more with a smile. He blinked when he noticed her wide smile. "What? What happened?" He asked blinkning at her then glancing at Kyouya.
"My doctor called me a little while ago" She said smiling more still when he saw Kyouya's wide eyed look.
"And?" He asked urging her to go on.
"He looked over some of my recent medical work and he called to tell me that the cancer i was gone" She finished in a slight whisper, smiling a little tearfully at Kyouya. He gaped at her quickly for a second or two, before going to pick her up and hug her tightly. "thats fantastic!" He said happily, putting her down to kiss her lightly. "This nights even better then"He whispered in her ear then pulled back to smile brightly at Ranka.
Haruhi laughed softly, but also looked at her father and smiled. "I guess we better get going then"She said softly, pulling away from Kyouya to go hug her father a little.
"Have a nice night sweetie...be careful and be safe"He murmured, kissing his daughters forehead and hugging her tightly. "I love you, baby girl" He said then pulled away, smiling. He looked at Kyouya and nodded a little. "You take good care of her Kyouya."He said giving the teen a steady look.
"You know i will sir. She'll be perfectly safe with me" Kyouya said giving the red head a nod, and holding his hand out to Haruhi. "We should be going...i have a little surprise before we go to dinner"He said to her softly as they left the small apartment.
"Whats the surprise?"She asked softly looking at him curiously and tilting her head slightly as she watched him check his watch.
"watching the sun set together..i know a perfect spot to go too"He said softly, smiling down at the brunette happily, as they walked a little dinstance to a small shaded empty lot. There were a few flowers scattered here and there, but it was mostly filled with lush looking green grass. Large willow trees almost blocked the few from everything but In the center of the lot is what caught Haruhi's attention through the branches...a plush white blanket was layed out and there was a dozen red roses laying in the center.
"Surprise..."He murmured quietly in her ear, and led her over to the blanket. He sat down, then held his arms open for Haruhi to come sit down in his arms, which she gladly did. She reached for the roses and sniffed them quietly. "These are beautiful Kyouya"She murmured.
"Not nearly as beautiful as you though" Kyouya said gently, smiling and going to kiss her gently. He smiled in the kiss when he felt Haruhi respond to it, and kiss him back. He pulled them both back onto the blanket so they were laying down, and continued to kiss. They pulled back for air a few minutes later, and smiled, completally relaxted in eachothers arms as they looked up at the orange and pink sky.
Layin' Here with you so close to me
Its Hard to fight these feelings when it feels so hard to breathe
Caught up in this moment
Caught up in your smile
Kyouya turned to look away from the setting sun, to look at Haruhi. He smiled gently as he took in her happy smile, and pulled her closer to him. "I love you so much Haruhi...more than you can imagine..." He whispered quietly kissing her temple lightly, his voice husky with emotion. "Your so amazing..."
Ive never opened up to anyone
So hard to hold back when im holding you in my arms
Haruhi looked at Kyouya smiling and murmured a quiet "I love you too Kyouya..." She kissed him lightly, then paused a little in curiously when she saw him shift slightly to reach for something in his suit pocket.
He moved to pull away and go to kneel on one knee in front of her. "I..Haruhi Fujioka...i love you...so much...i think ive loved since the first day ive layed eyes on you...your a wonderful,caring, amazing person...and i think the time we've spent together has been spectacular, and i dont want to waste another moment away from you..forever and i day i want to be by your side..so what i want to ask you is...Haruhi Fujioka...will you marry me?" Kyouya asked quietly, looking at Haruhi with nervous hopeful eyes.
We dont need to rush this
lets just take it slow
Haruhi gasped a little and widened her chocolate eyes at Kyouya as he opened the black box to show her the ring. She stared at the ring then at Kyouya and nodded quickly, her smile widening more. "I...I...yes! of course i will!"She gasped going to hug him tightly.
Kyouya grinned happily, and took the ring out and took her left hand and slid the ring on her ring finger gently. "You've made me the happiest man alive today Haruhi...i love you" He whispered smiling and hugging her tightly and kissing her lightly.
The two stayed like that as the sky gradually got darker. The only thing providing them light was the soft glow of the moon.
Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burning so bright
And i dont want to mess this thing up
Kyouya was the first to pull away from the embrass, and stood up, holding his hand up. "If im not mistaken, i promised a special lady dinner and a dance. We dont want to be later for either of them, now do we?" He asked, smiling happily at her and helping her up.
I dont want to push too far
just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one ive been waiting for my whole life
So baby im alright, with just a kiss goodnight
They finished up dinner without incident, and as Kyouya had promised, he brought her to a out door portch in the resturant that was lit up with twinkling white lights and fountains. Soft music was playing, setting the mood for calm, peaceful and romantic.
He pulled her into his arms gently, a hand resting on the small of her back and the other taking her hand gently in his. They moved slowly to match the pace of the music.
i know that if we give this a little time
it'll only bring us closer to the love we wanna find
its never felt so real, no its never felt so right
The young couple moved closer together, moving in a slow sway as the music changed to another song. Haruhi rested her head gently against Kyouya's chest, and Kyouya tightened his hold on her, and used once hand to lift her chin up to him. He leaned down to kiss her lightly again, the pulled away, hugging her again as he looked up at the dark navey blue sky.
"Look at the moon and stars Haruhi"He murmured quietly, nodding up at the sky as they stopped their gently sway.
"Oh wow...its so clear the sky.."She breathed out in shocked surprise as saw the stars glittering and flashing in the nights sky and the moon bathing everything in a white glow.
Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
just a touch of the fire burning so bright
And i dont want to mess this thing up
I dont want to push too far
Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one ive been waiting for my whole life
So baby im alright, with just a kiss goodnight
A little after midnight, Kyouya took Haruhi home. They stood outside her apartment door wrapped in eachothers arms and stealing kisses every few seconds.
I know that if we give this a little time
It'll only bring us closer to the love we wanna find
its never felt so real, no its never felt so right
"I love you..."Kyouya mumbled quietly against her lips before kissing her once last time goodnight.
"I love you too"She replied quietly smiling at him, and hugging him tightly.
"Goodnight my love...sleep well"
"You too...goodnight Kyouya...i'll see you tomorrow"
Kyouya smiled and watched her walk inside before slowly turning around to go back to the limo waiting for him downstairs.
Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
just a touch of the fire burning so bright
And i dont want to mess this thing up
i dont want to push too far
