Hi guys, thanks for the reviews :)

omg, time to start a countdown...

12 to go!

Anyways... I'm stuck for ideas, so... I want to know if anyone has any ideas, then I could try to encorporate them into my story, and of course you'd get cred.

So... either in reviews, or I. me would be best if you do have ideas.

And... sorry about this chapter... I was really bored and wanted to make things interesting ;)

For now though, as I always say, enjoy~


"Seriously? I missed out on that?"

I looked at the twins, kind of miffed that I missed out on everyones sudden change of heart concerning Ritsu.

Apparently, he kind of dropped hints in club that he likes Haruhi... to Haruhi... and she blew him off (not meaning to) thus upset him. Everyone had rushed to make him feel better.

"Yeah, it was kind of sad." muttered Hikaru, flicked a stray strand of hair out of his face, and smiling slightly.

"Damn... and I though I had the perfect 'lovely item' for him too..."

"Oh?-" asked Kaoru.

"What might that have been?" Hikaru queried.

"Well... Chance. My dog... remember? He might have grown a little, but he's still super cute and all."

"Oh... the collie?"

"Yeah, and since Ritsu is good with animals, I thought it might have worked. Plus,Chance pretty much loves everyone."

"That could have worked..." mused Hikaru. While Kaoru grinned.

"Why didn't you suggest that earlier?" he asked.

I shrugged.

They laughed.

I got up and walked away... seeing Tamaki in his corner, I decided it couldn't hurt to try and cheer the dude up.

"Hey Tamaki..." I probed, poking him slightly.

"Saori... supposing, I'm not Haruhi's daddy after all...then how can it be, that I find her so utterly adorable?"

"Uh... um..."

"When she's with another man, why is it that I become so insanely jealous? I'm not her father, I have no right to be so protective. No right whatsoever."

"Tamaki..."

"And... I keep saying I want to marry her... daddy's don't want that for their daughters, they want to see them happy."

"Um... Tamaki..."

"And yesterday, I went through this with the others, and they ignored it and called me stupid."

"Well... you are kind of being stupid."

He twitched, and then sighed... admitting defeat.

"Tamaki... I know this is going to sound insane... but maybe you actually like her... you know, like how I like Takashi."

His mouth dropped, and his eyes widened in a sudden understanding.

"You... might be right." he whispered.

"There's no might about it, I am always right. Just... think about it okay, because even though I'm always right, I may be mistaken."

I got up, patted him on the head, and walked away.

This... might take a while.

We all scattered as Tamaki kicked the can far away, and Ritsu went to get it, and count. Chance barked happily, and followed Ritsu. I'd brought him along, and he and Ritsu got on really well, plus all the girls loved it.

For some insane reason, we all headed for the maze, and I followed everyone to the middle.

I saw Tamaki a distance away pulling Haruhi around a corner, the twins ran our from a gap in front and followed them, and just as I turned that corner, I saw Kyouya heading to the marble gazebo that Tamaki frequently hid in.

I laughed to myself as they bickered over who was hiding there, and about it being strange that only Tamaki and Haruhi were 'allowed' to hide there... then I heard mumbled talking from above.

I looked up and saw Honey and Takashi having a nice chat in a tree, and smiled warmly at them as they noticed me looking at them.

It didn't take long for Takashi to reach down a scoop me up, pulling me into his lap, but I couldn't really catch up on what they were talking about.

"I wonder... if maybe something really big is going to happen before we graduate." mused Honey.

Takashi sighed quietly.

"You never know..."

I stayed quiet, and huddled against his chest. This was more of a conversation for them, so I wasn't about to get involved, and was quite happy to let Takashi stoke my hair back and rest his chin on my head.

I was starting to think about the whole Lisa thing now... I know she'd be staying with me, because grandma had said it was okay... but would she be able to come to school for the last few weeks of school?

Probably, if I went and told the headmaster.

He'd met me before, and he knew I was a friend of Tamaki's... maybe that would play out in my favor, I could possibly see if I could pull some strings.

I mean, it's already good publicity that they're opening their doors to people from across the seas, offering scholarships and such, but if I could persuade him to let my friend in for a few short days, then maybe I could do an interview, say how this year has been excellent, and promote the school... it would be good for business, and the school runs like a business, I know that much.

So... why not?

"What's wrong?" whispered Takashi, kissing my cheek lightly.

"Hm? Nothing... just thinking." I muttered. He nodded in understanding, and I just then realized that Honey was gone.

I smiled slightly as Takashi kept nuzzling me, wrapping his arm tighter around my waist, and tilting my head up so he could get to my neck.

"It might just be my point of view here... but is my neck your favourite spot or something?"

"Yeah."

I laughed as he pressed his lips against my skin, and I could feel him smile, but then he just seemed to want to get intimate, and I was more afraid of falling out of the tree than being spotted.

"Not here." I whispered, pressing my hands against his chest (needlessly, might I add, as soon as I said to stop, he backed off). "In the club room."

He just smirked slightly, before hoisting me on to his shoulder, jumping down from the tree, and making for the door to get inside.

Pretty soon, we were in the cool clubroom, on our own, on one of the sofas.

He's sat me on his lap so I was straddling him, face to face. He was pretty much looking at me neck and chest, so, hey, easy access for him, while all I could do was sit here and mewl.

The more he kissed that soft spot on my neck, then more antsy I got, so I wriggled in his lap. It didn't take long for me to notice hisfriend was here again, totally uninvited. Lawl.

"Getting frisky now, aren't we?" I breathed into his ear, smirking all the while as he turned beet red.

He just growled deep in his throat, pulled my head to his, and pressed his lips to mine in a bruising kiss.

I don't know how exactly it all happened, but he was shirtless soon enough and I was lead under him on the sofa gasping for breath as we parted from another prolonged kiss.

His hands whispered up my side, one sliding under my shirt to brush against my skin... and that was when we heard footsteps and chattering in the hall.

"Ah shit!" we both sighed, getting up hurriedly and making ourselves tidy. Which for Takashi meant getting his shirt back on, for me, it was pulling my shirt down, straightening my hair, and covering up the soft bruising on my neck from Takashi's harsh kisses.

I ended up just leaning against him, careful to hide the marks as best I could.

"This is where you two have been." laughed Ritsu, letting a hyper Chance run at me and knock me back off the sofa.

"Yeah..." said Takashi, absently pulling the corner of his shirt down and trying his best to hide the fact that he'd mismatched the buttons.

I laughed quietly, before getting Chance back on his lead, and urging Takashi to come to the airport with me.

Lisa's flight would be in within the hour, and I should get there.

"Sure, I'll take you." he smiled, picking up mine and his blazers.

"Thanks~"

x x x x x

I bounced by the door waiting for sign of Lisa.

I'd made myself look presentable in the limo, minus the hickey, but I had no concealer. I'd left my blazer too, because I didn't need it, and my tie was lose at the front.

Takashi was stood behind me, hos arms looped around my waist, resting his chin on my head.

He was dressed pretty much the same as me, except he had no tie on, and his shirt looked a little more crumpled.

People passing kept smiling at us, and I heard people saying that we looked so cute together (this was mainly the younger couples themselves... but it was still kind of strange) and all I could do was smile back at them.

Eventually, the big board showed that Lisa's plane had landed, and passengers and luggage were being taken off the plane.

I waited for what seemed like ages, then I spotted her shoulder length brown hair and bright blue glasses.

And I ran for her.

"Lisa!"

She was looking around, but when she heard me, she looked right at me, grinned and opened her arms wide.

"Oh my god!" we kept shouting, over and over, while Takashi stood off by the side smiling to himself.

"Lisa! Oh my god, you look different!"

"So do you! Where the fuck did your hair go?" she asked, pulling at my short hair.

"I had it chopped, it was too much fuss."

"No excuse, what you did is a crime against hair."

"Sorry." I laughed, but pulled her in for another hug anyways.

"We have SO much catching up to do! You won't believe how crazy Emma and Louise have gotten since you left! And guess what else, they got together! Like, as a couple!"

"Seriously? I suspected Louise was a bit... you know. But I thought Emma was like... cock only."

"I know, I thought so too, but- why do you have a hickey?"

I laughed nervously, and rubbed the spot on my neck.

"Well, you see... it's his fault." I said, pointing at Takashi.

She looked, and it must have been the first time she noticed him, because her jaw dropped.

"Oh. My. Effing. God... where can I get one?" she asked, mouth agape.

"Nowhere, he's mine." I laughed, bumping my hip against hers to make her snap out of it.

"So... he's one of those two that you got confused over?" She asked, looking at me.

"Yeah..." I replied, looking at her.

"So... where's the other? I'm sure he needs a shoulder to cry on."

I laughed and shoved her, while Takashi laughed too. Of course, he understood every word of the conversation, and he probably found it very amusing.

"Lisa, this is Takashi, Takashi, this is Lisa." I said, changing the subject from Kyouya.

"Nice to meet you." he said, shaking her hand and smiling.

"Yeah, you too." she smiled back.

"I think... we should get going, you still have my grandma to meet yet, and Takashi has to get home."

"Okay... but I swear, I am not gonna sleep tonight until I tell you all of what you missed."

"Fine by me." I laughed, linking her arm while Takashi grabbed her cases. "It's what I was going to suggest anyways."
