Part 2- Out on The Town
Disclaimer: Wish I did but I don't…. maybe I will get it for Easter! XD
The building looks older than the rest and is covered in moss, the sign is made of old cracked wood and there is no door, only an array of opaque cloths with beading.
"Hey, let's go in there." I say as I drag Kyouya behind.
"A fortune teller? Really Haruhi? I never pegged you as the type to believe in that sort of thing." His voice quivers a little.
"I don't but it sounds fun and I want to see the inside of the building." I drag him to the entrance and turn. "If you don't want to come in that is fine, I shouldn't be long."
"Okay, I will just wait out here." I smirk as the look of unease vanishes. Was he really that worried about an old fortune teller? I never thought I would see him show weakness.
Stepping in my eyes adjust to the low lighting. Candles are lit everywhere and the room smells of patchouli oil. There in the middle of the room sits a table covered in deep blood red cloth with golden detailing of stars and constellations. On the table is a pointy stick and an ink well. There is also a silver intricately designed bell. I walk up and ring it once and watch as a women in her mid-thirties walked around the corner dressed in a rainbow of different hanging fabrics and beads.
"How much for a reading?" I ask timidly. The lady smiles softly and comes up, taking my palm in hers she smiles.
"No charge for you. You are too troubled dear girl." She smiles as she leads me to the table and sits down.
"Lets start with the easy stuff. You have strong family ties, both related and unrelated to you." She pauses and smiles. "your friends cherish you dearly. You are surrounded by strong male influences often but you feel comfortable around them. They can take you places you could never imagine." I watch in awe as she strokes different lines on my hand.
"Now your love line." She says as she dips the stick into the inkwell and traces a line on my hand.
"Two men are both vying for your affection. You say you don't know which to choose but you do. One a king of shadows and one a silent protector. And a silent competitor that has withdrawn from the game. Hmmm… what an interesting love line. You are destined to be with one of these two men, but which one will you choose? And will you choose right?" She smiles at me as she closes my hand.
"You should give them both a chance but in my eyes there is no competition as to who you will wind up with." And with that the women disappeared behind the curtains. I slowly stand up and walk out into the blinding light. I shield my eyes and find Kyouya sitting on a bench half asleep.
I walk over and tap him on the shoulder. "Come on, let's go. Your starting to fall asleep and I don't want someone who is exhausted driving home." I pull him up and we walk back to the car.
"So, what did the fortune teller say?" Kyouya asks politely.
"Only that I should give you a chance." I say simply and watch out of the corner of my eye as he smiles. I shake my head and watch as the city streets turn to ocean view and we soon arrive back at the house as the sun begins to set.
As I step into the house I am attacked with a hug by Tamaki.
"Your back! I was so worried but Honey told me you guys went into town!"
"Tamaki… Can't… Breathe." Suddenly strong arms pull me away and sit me back on the ground a safe distance away.
"Thank you Mori-senpai." I smile up and then turn to Tamaki.
"I was told we are having a bonfire? Will there be smore's?"
"Why of course! Smore's the perfect commoner treat! We shall send for some!" Tamaki twirls.
"Senpai… all you need is chocolate, marshmallow's, and graham crackers. You don't buy them from a store you make them." I say and laugh at his dejected expression.
"I am going to change into some warmer cloths." After changing into a pair of skinny jeans and a soft button up sweater I come back down to find them all already out at the fire pit.
"Yay! Haru-chan is here!" Honey squeals and I smile at their messy attempt at making smores.
"Here let me help you guys." I show them how to do it and the all watch in amazement as my marshmallow catches fire and I let it burn a bit before blowing it out. After smores we sit and watch the ocean.
"We should play a game!" Tamaki decides. "Haruhi! What is a good commoner game to play around a fire?"
"Hmmmm… well there is Truth and Dare, which is a classic, or there is Two Truths and a Lie or Never Have I Ever, but those are both usually drinking games. So how about Truth or Dare?"
"Okay me first!" Honey smiles. "Takashi?"
"Truth."
"Do you like someone?" I watch interested as he blushes.
"Yes. Okay, Tamaki?"
"Dare."
"Kiss Kyouya." I stifle a laugh as Tamaki turns red and gasps.
"W-what?"
"You heard me." Mori-senpai smiles as Tamaki sighs. I watch as he walks over and kisses Kyouya quickly then sits back down. The best out of all the members expressions is Kyouya's he looks absolutely shocked, but then hides it by pushing up his glasses.
"Kyouya?"
"Truth."
"D-did you like it?" Tamaki stutters.
"It was not horrible…" Tamaki sighs and then smiles. I watch as Kyouya shakes his head and then turns to me. Haruhi?"
"Truth."
"Do you like one of the hosts."
"Yes." I watch as he smiles and I roll my eyes.
"Hikaru?" I watch as he looks up.
"Me? Truth."
"Are you guys really as intimate as you guys say you are in you brotherly love act?" I watch as he blushes.
"Yes." He laughs as if I have lifted a burden off of his shoulders.
"Honey-senpai?"
"Truth."
"Is usa-chan actually an alien that you communicate with?" I watch as Honey bursts out laughing.
"No silly! How on earth did you get that?" Honey continues laughing.
"Haru-chan?"
"mmmmm… Dare."
"Kiss Takashi."
"W-what?" We both sputter. I turn an look at him. I sigh, I guess there is no helping it, and I mean, it isn't like I don't want too. I scoot closure and reach my arms up around his neck to pull him down but instead he grabs my waist and sets me on his lap so that I am closer up to him. I turn my head up and kiss him gently on the lips. My insides tumble as he kisses me back. His lips feel like soft rose petals. We slowly pull back and we both smile then sit back down in our respective places. I blush at the look on every ones faces.
"Kyouya?"
"Truth."
"Are you hurt by what just happened?" I sigh knowing I shouldn't have asked.
"Only a little." He responds truthfully and sighs.
"Tamaki?"
"Truth?"
"Why did you kiss me when you could have backed out?"
"Because I like you." Tamaki says softly.
"I think it is time we head inside." Kauru says softly before getting up with his brother and walking back in.
"Yeah, it is getting late." I say and then grab Tamaki's hand and pull him up, then push him inside. Mori-senpai and Honey follow behind me. That night we all went to bed with troubled thoughts.
Haruhi: He kissed me back. So does he like me? I had fun with Kyouya-senpai today but I feel like something was a little off. It felt a little forced for me. And why was he so afraid of going in to see that fortune teller?
Hikaru: I feel so bad, telling everyone about Kaoru and me, but is it really a shock? We have always been so close.
Kaoru: Argh, this is the first time I haven't been able to tell what is bothering Hikaru.
Honey: I need to get those two together no matter what the cost!
Mori: That kiss. She kissed me like she meant it, and didn't back away when I kissed her back. Maybe she likes me too? I don't know.
Tamaki: I can't believe I said it… I cant believe I kissed him. I can't believe he said it wasn't horrible….
Kyouya: That was a very close call today with the fortune teller. There is no doubt in my mind that she would recognize me.
FLASH BACK
"Oh Kyouya we should go in there!" My sister says dragging me towards the building. She then pushes me in and laughs maniacally, blocking the door way. "I am not leaving until you get your fortune read."
The women at the table laughs and takes my hand. "Hmmm… lets make this quick for you and do the interesting part. There is a boy in your life, soon becoming a man. He sill harbor feelings for you but the question is will you harbor feelings for him? And then a girl quickly approaches that will change the dynamics of your friends. She will change you all for the better. That is all I have to say." The women then smiled and left me.
END FLASHBACK
And still that question remains.
Hey! I will see you guys in a week or so… by see I mean update :) Thanks for reading this much and thanks to all who have done the poll. :) You guys are great!
REVIEW XD
P.s. Sorry for the cliché truth or dare game but I needed something to move things along, and to show Tamaki's weirdness from the beginning… he was jealous of Haruhi getting attention from Kyouya XD odd I know but I needed something and I feel like this will be an interesting little side story.
