Hey guys, Khu again. Don't worry about the songs, if you think they have a story, or they're about emotions, just send me the names, I'll see whether I'll be able to use em or not. Also because apparently a lotta people like this stuff I'm putting up, I'm gonna create an actual STORYLINE. XD

Keep R&R'ing guys! Thanks alot!


We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

I tugged at my collar. Sigh. A family friend's wedding. Was this really necessary? I am still growing, after all. But I'd better look presentable at least. I sighed. What would my parents think of Haruhi and me? They'd probably either not care or care a whole lot. My sister would have a field day. I can just imagine the little rascal: "KYON-KUN, DENWA~ OOH, FROM HARUHI?" She'd know her on a first name basis without even knowing what she looked like (stunning and fabulous, just for the record). Haruhi said to worry about it when the time came; but we made a plan anyway, just in case we ever met up by accident. Considering I have to keep this relationship secret for a great deal of time, I dunno how I'll feel. Repressed? Eh. Something like that, probably. The thing is, how can we do this with no backup? I feel like I have to let other people other than the SOS Brigade know about our relationship. I can't tell Taniguchi or Kunikida though. I can imagine their stupid reactions now. "HURR HURR, KYON ALWAYS HAD A THING FOR WEIRDOES LOL." Now I wonder why I'm having this internal monologue when I'm reclining in my high backed chair.

The restaurant itself that we were at was all corners and shadows. It reminded me of that scene from Batman where the Joker crashes through the window. That was basically the layout of the entire space, except it was smaller and there was only one semi circular window. A corridor eventually led outside, onto a balcony, overlooking a busy street. It was quite windy tonight. I tugged again at my tie. Geez. The invite said to dress lounge casual. This is more like ball formal. I looked down at my suit. Oh well. I guess this'll come in handy when I'm in business. As I leant further and further back from boredom, I reached the point of balance.

CRASH!

OW. OW OW OW. Wait what's this? Who's this that's looking down on me with a furious blush?

She offered a hand. I took it and got myself up on my feet, replaced the chair to its rightful position, then turned back to thank her. Woah. It WAS her.

"You're kidding me. Haruhi, what the hell are you doing here?"

"You looked up my dress."

"What? No, I fell! How could I have TIME to look up your dress, I was more bothered about getting up so we could AVOID this situation." I didn't even see anything. Too focused on getting up...right? I'm sure I didn't see anything totally incriminating. Or lacy.

"Exactly. You did."

"Haruhi, I don't exactly follow."

"You don't have to." She huffed, and sat at her predetermined seat. Guess where that was? Right next to me. She crossed her arms under her bosom. Oh damn. Hawt.

I facepalmed. Partly to get the image out of my mind, and also because this was just typical Haruhi. I sighed, and turned to Haruhi. My parents were already talking and laughing with other guests. "Well now, are we all good on the plan?"

"Crystal clear." She mock saluted, then stuck her tongue out at me. I chuckled, and poked her cheek. "Cheeky girl."

"Gee, you're so punny." She rolled her eyes, smiling.

"Anyway, you're here as well for what? Family friend?"

"Yup. Apparently my mum knew the bride's mum's uncle."

"What? That seems like hardly a reason to be invited."

"Oh it usually isn't. Unless your mum was the person that delivered the bride from the mum's womb."

"I see...who gave the first bath?"

"Hah, my Dad."

"What? How is that...OH, your mum's a nurse and your father's a doctor, I gotcha."

"Yup. When's the food coming, I'm STARVING."

"Well I don't really care, I had some stuff to eat at home..."

"Kyon, how can you not care about FREE FOOD?!"

She had a point there, but I wasn't willing to admit it.

"Meh. I prefer homemade food. By you or me."

She blushed at her mention.

"Gee, do you HAVE to make the compliments? It's embarrassing."

"What's so embarrassing about praising your significant, lovable partner?" I winked.

"Oh geez FINE, Romeo." She tried to look pissed, but was failing.


We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

"Y'know, we could be pretty self sufficient." I once again sat backwards in my chair. Haruhi leant upon the table with her chin in her hand. I raised an eyebrow. "No ribbons?"

She looked up at her hair and twirled some around her finger. "Well, it's a dinner I wasn't expecting to meet anyone special at."

"Oh, so I'm special now?"

"Yes. In a retarded way."

"Heey, that's not cool."

"Meh, you walked right into that one, dumbass." She whacked me lightly over the head.

"Hey! That hurt." I mock rubbed my head, pouting.

"Mawww, I'm sowwy." She whacked me on the chest instead.

"What the hell?"

"It distracted you from the pain, didn't it?"

"Oh come on, Haruhi."

She just sat there with her ridiculously giant grin. Once again, I facepalmed.


If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

Speeches were done, dinner was eaten. As I was staring up into space, bored once again, Haruhi decided to join me.

"What's so interesting about the ceiling?"

"Well, what else is there to look at?"

"Me."

"Ah-" I blushed and double took- "Ah, eh, well..."

"What, Kyon? Am I too hot to simply look at?" Her voice was light and playful.

I screwed up my eyes. "Well, one, that'd make my parents suspicious and two...yes, you are."

Hah. Caught on the back foot there, Haruhi. SCORE: Haruhi 1, Kyon 1.

The two MC's got up on the small stage just to the side of the bride party's table.

"And now, for the bride and groom's first dance as a married couple. Please welcome them onto the dance floor!" There was general applause from the guests, as the two took up positions. The small band began to play... Chasing Cars?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Great. Just what I need. Something to remind me of something I'd rather be doing with Haruhi right now rather than just sitting here. Well, not right now, the married get centre stage. But after that, at least. Would my parents take that as a sign? Hm...probably not, they haven't seen Haruhi before, but still, if we get too into it...it might end up really bad.


Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough

Gah. Screw it. I grabbed Haruhi's hand and dragged her off her chair. I could hear the lyrics reverberating in my brain - DAMMIT, GET YOUR HEAD TOGETHER – and I closed the door behind me.

"Kyon, what the hell? I was watching them!"

I took a deep breath. I grasped her shoulders gently, but firmly. And started to sing.

"If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?"

Haruhi paused.

"Wow Kyon, that's really not like you. What gives?"

"Spur of the moment kinda thing." I paused, and stared at Haruhi.

"What?"

I deliberated what I was going to say.

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life

But what about my parents? Are they even looking this way? I flicked my eyes over to the other guests. They all seemed absorbed in the dance party. Oh screw them. At least for now. I'll deal with the consequences later.


Let's waste time
Chasing cars
Around our heads

Here we go...let's see whether she STILL remembers that dream. I took a deep breath.

What I had said in a dream, I was now saying in real life.

Wow. What a difference Haruhi has made to my world.

Well of course, she's God you idiot.

But what is she NOW to me?

She's not just my girlfriend, I guess.

She's more than that, right?

She's...more than just a lover.

Well of COURSE she is, once again, she's GOD.

Well, Koizumi thinks she is.

Oh well. Excuse the language, but fuck it.

I need your grace
To remind me
To find my own

"...I kinda have a thing for girls with ponytails."

"What?"

"I can't remember when, but when you had a ponytail it looked so good on you it was criminal!"

"What?!" I think Haruhi had caught on by this point. "What are you, some kind of idiot?"

She paused in mock surprise.

I was about to kiss her but then I said: "Oh come on, at least play along realistically."

"Meeeeh. You're too much of a sap anyway, Kyon." Instead she leaned into my chest, and kissed me.

It lasted for quite a while. Funny thing was that there was no tongue contact. We were just frozen there, like salt statues, relishing the moment. Eventually she broke the intimate contact.

"Hm. Well, do you hate me for it?"

"No. Of course not."

We looked at each other for a while. Her: with her lustrous chocolate hair fluttering in the chilly night wind, illuminated by street lights, car headlamps and the full moon. Me: uncomfortable in my suit, hot, stuffy, and slightly turned on.

I could still hear the band playing inside. I shifted my gaze slightly over. She nodded, understanding.

Now this may sound cheesy, but come on. Full moon as backdrop, a love song playing, all you need is a good old duet.

Which is what we did.


"If I lay here...
If I just lay here...
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?"

I gently took her by the hand and twirled her round. There were no words spoken now; simply the melodies of our voices, and our bodies' movements.


"Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life..."

"All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see~"

Both as one. Both in unison.

"I don't know where
Confused about how as well
Just know that these things will never change for us at all..."

Haruhi started for a moment. She gently just leaned against me. I wrapped my arms around her waist. "What's up?"

"Well..." she shifted uncomfortably. "What about your parents?"

"Don't worry about them."

She turned towards me. "But they might-"

I put one finger to her lips. "It doesn't matter right now. Just enjoy the moment." I smiled. Of course, I knew my parents would be either pissed, or really annoying about her. Either way, I was prepared to deal with it. I kissed her lightly.

"Nearly the end of the song." She was looking towards the party.

"Are my parents watching?"

"Hardly. They're dancing."

"Good." I kissed her forehead, before beginning to dance with her again.

"If I lay here...
If I just lay here...
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?"

Softly, quietly. We looked at each other once again; Haruhi now leaning backwards into my hand keeping her from falling; me leaning forward. Our faces, our bodies almost touching.

"Well...would you?" I asked in a quiet, secretive voice.

She brought her head up to my ear. "Of course." She whispered.

And that's all I needed.
