After several attempts to end Yasuchika's life, and many gallons of water on the marble floor from the tub, it was about noon; Yasuchika's checkout time.
Haruhi grumbled angrily to herself as she dried her body after shoving Yasuchika back into the bedroom and locking the door, "Stupid infuriating boy, I swear I'm gonna…" "Oh, Haruhi-chan? Are you alright dear?"
Haruhi stopped her ramblings as she heard Umehito's voice through the door, "Y-yes, I'm fine, Umehito; is Y- I mean, Master Yasuchika still here?"
She head an amused chuckle as the eccentric man answered, "Oh, no he's gone; but he left with a smile on his face and promised he'd be back to visit. You must have done well for a rather cold girl."
The big brown-eyed girl rolled her eyes and answered, sarcastically, "Why, thank you, Umehito; I do wonder how I managed."
After she was dressed in clean, simple tan trousers and a matching shirt, she was escorted back to the cells.
"Haruhi!" Kaoru exclaimed as the entered; a smile spreading across his face as he stood up in his cell.
Said girl smiled lightly as she went into he cell before Umehito shut the door, "Hi, Kaoru; I'm fine." The younger of the twins walked over to the bars of his cell and answered, "Yes, but what the fuck happened? Umehito told me your patron requested his room till noon!"
Umehito hummed happily as Haruhi answered, taking the plate of warm pancakes from him, "Well… Master Yasuchika seemed rather… interested in me. He seemed rather amused with my bad attitude."She rolled her eyes as she sat down on her cot and began to eat.
As Umehito picked up another plate and passed it through the bars to Kaoru, the heavy metal door seperating the cells from the rest of the mansion, opened suddenly.
The cloaked man gasped and bowed immediately, "Master Kyoya! How wonderful for you to grace us with your presence!"
'Kyoya does look rather pleasant; as pleasant as a stone wall can look,' Kaoru thought as he too stood up and bowed along with Haruhi.
"Yes well," the dark-haired master began, choosing to stand beside Umehito, "I have never been so pleased with a slave before; nevertheless two of them; and on the same evening."
Kaoru plastered on his best fake smile, as charming as can be, "Why, thank you so much for your praise, Master Kyoya; it's an honor to serve you." Haruhi then gave her own smile; not trying nearly as hard as her best friend, "Yes, Master Kyoya; this is a real honor."
Kyoya smirked, looking at Haruhi; he knew she couldn't stand him and that she barely tried to hide it. He had to say he loved her spunk.
"I am a very busy man, so I will get down to business," he stated, addressing them. "Because you both did so well, and in fact, have your patrons promising to return, I will grant you a special treat: you two may, under the supervision of Umehito, roam the enclosed courtyard behind the mansion." Three pairs of eyes widened; a 'special treat' indeed.
The courtyard was truly beautiful; there were bushes of different flowers everywhere; trees as well. Little ponds, beautiful white benches, the greenest grass most people had ever seen. It certainly didn't reflect the nature of the mansion itself; most likely the point.
"Now, darlings, I'm just going to sit here on this bench near the back entrance so you can have some time to yourselves; I doubt you'd be able to get out of here anyway." Umehito chuckled good-naturedly; he was indeed correct.
The whole courtyard was enclosed by a huge glass dome that only opened at the top to allow fresh air; also so it wouldn't get too hot.
The pair nodded wordlessly, and then Kaoru grasped Haruhi's left hand and led her away towards one of the small ponds that had a bench beside it.
Once they made it there and had a seat, everything remained silent and peaceful until Kaoru said what he had to say. "Tamaki wants to get us out of here, and help us find Hikaru; he wants to make me his lover."
Haruhi nodded silently, "Yasuchika wants our help taking over Kyoya's sex slave company so he can prove to his father that he is good enough to inherit their own company." Kaoru then turned and blinked at Haruhi, "We have some crazy ass patrons, huh?"
Haruhi couldn't help but laugh at that statement, "Yeah, we do; but I don't disagree with either of them. If we could help them accomplish what they want, we could easily get the hell out of here, and start looking for Hikaru."
Kaoru nodded slowly in agreement as he watched a frog hop into the pond, "I wouldn't mind being Tamaki's lover though; he's so wonderful. Caring, charming, funny, smart, successful, handsome; in fact… I think I fell in love with him the moment I saw him…"
Haruhi clicked her tongue, swinging her bare feet back and forth, "I can tell; your whole attitude and aura has changed a bit… you're more relaxed; even when Kyoya walked into the dungeon."
Kaoru smiled softly, "What about Master Yasuchika? What's he like?" Haruhi snorted, "That kid? He's an arrogant little shit…" Kaoru laughed loudly before Haruhi continued, "… but I rather like him… he's so easy to converse with, and even though he's got a bit of an attitude, he can interact with me easily enough. He's… fun."
Kaoru had stopped laughing in time to hear the rest of he description and grinned, "Wow, he does sound interesting. Maybe I'll get to meet him soon." Haruhi tossed her bangs out of her face, "He told Umehito that he'd return; which makes sense if he wants to overthrow Kyoya."
"Indeed," Kaoru murmured.
Eventually, the pair exhausted their talk about their odd patrons, and decided to walk around the enclosure.
"I have to say," Kaoru said, hanging onto Haruhi's right hand as they navigated the man-made path, "This is a beautiful place; it's too bad it has this fucking glass dome." Haruhi rolled her eyes, yanking on Kaoru's hand to remind him to slow down his pace for her, "Well, what would be the point of letting us slaves roam around if we could escape?"
Kaoru grinned slightly, kicking a small stone out of his way, "Well, there wouldn't be; but wouldn't it be fucking awesome?" She smiled softly, "Illogical, but yes."
It was peacefully silent for a while before Haruhi said, "You know, you should have asked Tamaki to locate Hikaru himself; I'm sure that wouldn't be too hard to do with his connections and fortune."
Kaoru blinked, completely taken by surprise by how fucking true that was, "Uh… well… surely that has already crossed his mind, and he'll let me know next time he visits." Haruhi clicked her tongue, "You know, I should have asked Yasuchika if he'd heard anything about Hikaru…"
Kaoru sighed, "And you call me slow." That ended in Kaoru receiving a hard smack in the back of his head; hard enough to cause him to trip over his own feet, and fall face first into a pond beside the pathway as Haruhi walked on slowly; ignoring his cries for help.
A/N: Yeah… I don't know; it's more of a filler. And it's been like 3 ½ months for this and… yeah… I don't know what to say. Sorry and please review! ~Aly~
