The Moonlight Masquerade
Ending 4: Unexpected Affection
"Hikaru?" Haruhi whispered, squinting through the blackness of the dark music room. It was hard to tell if it was Hikaru or Kaoru, but his stance looked like it was Hikaru.
"Eh, err, umm, nyehhh, uhh, h-hi Haruhi," Hikaru stuttered out, blushing at his idiotic response. He stood frozen on his spot in the middle of the floor. Hikaru was far from his normal smart-alecky attitude. He was awkward and nervous and…cute.
"This, umm, this is a surprise," Haruhi replied, taking a step towards the red-head. His golden eyes grew wider as he looked over her again. The gorgeous rose-colored dress looked even more beautiful on Haruhi with her short brunette hair and big brown eyes. It looked much better than that silly wig and blue contacts at least.
"Wow, Kyoya-senpai was right," said Hikaru thoughtfully.
"Kyoya-senpai?"
"Yeah, he told me that I would have a good time and an interesting surprise if I asked the blonde girl to dance," Hikaru chuckled softly. "He definitely wasn't lying. This sure was a surprise. I guess he knows me pretty well."
That cheater! It wasn't fair that Kyoya knew what she was wearing then told Hikaru. But, she was at fault in a way, for letting Kyoya see her dress. On the other hand, it was a nice surprise to be with Hikaru.
Hikaru walked up to Haruhi. Hugging her softly he said, "You really do look amazing tonight Haruhi. I'm not really good with the emotions and stuff but," Hikaru's face got really red, "I really like you Haruhi. Will you be my girlfriend?" he blurted out. Hikaru let go of Haruhi and clamped his hands over his mouth, as if the last part wasn't supposed to come out.
Girlfriend? That was a surprise; Haruhi had no idea Hikaru liked her. She really was oblivious to people's feelings for her. She had a good time though, and maybe it would be fun to be Hikaru's girlfriend, what with his unexpected affection towards her. "Yes," she whispered, and Hikaru moved in for a kiss.
