Everything changes at some point.
Kyoya had never believed the saying to be true. Until now. He had always thought that noting would change. After the host club disbanded, granted he had been a bit nostalgic but it didn't change who he was. Nothing could shake him. The only thing that got close to shocking him was Haruhi getting married. Tamaki had been heartbroken. Apparently Boston had a lot to offer to the small brunette, including a husband who was not Tamaki. It was then that Kyoya's love for Haruhi disappeared altogether. She was no more than a familiar stranger to him from that point on and he treated her accordingly.
Renge had been a lot more vocal at Haruhi's decision. Kyoya remembered it well. She stormed in Haruhi's apartment, her face flushed and eyes sparking with anger. She started screaming about betrayal and shamelessness. However Haruhi's lack of remorse knocked her to the floor. Kyoya could clearly picture her defeated expression. A pang of emotion coiled in his stomach when Renge squeezed Tamaki's hand and spitefully verbalized, "Whatever, you were never worth it. I hope you're happy." Haruhi had given her a cold smile and Renge shuffled outside, Tamaki in tow. Kyoya had followed them out without missing a single beat.
They moved Tamaki in with Kyoya, fearing the worst for their friend. Renge had been a constant presence in his life ever since. While she didn't officially reside with the two men she would visit almost daily. Tamaki was grateful for the distraction she provided. Kyoya on the other hand started needing her. Without him knowing Renge started being essential to his wellbeing. A conversation with his older sister made him realise he was in love with Renge. Upon telling her just that, the French-Japanese girl giggled and hit his shoulder playfully. She told to quit joking and sauntered to Tamaki.
The days that followed Kyoya tried to make her see that he was indeed in love with her. Renge was slow to realise but when she did she had only one thing to say, "I can't be in a relationship with you." The statement cut him like a thousand knifes. Still he asked her to explain. "Tamaki asked me to be his girlfriend." The admission hit him even harder. In a moment of irrational panic he forced her in a kiss.
"I loved you…" she told him a little later when they were both lying spent on his bed, bodies sticky and still warm, "This can't happen again." With that she got up and started gathering her clothes. Kyoya watched her slip into her garments. She moved swiftly with well-calculated movements and grace he hadn't been aware she possessed. Renge looked at him one last time before walking out the door. For some reason Kyoya felt his heart sinking in the pit of his stomach. An odd feeling gripped him as he rose from the bed. He punched a wall and swore softly.
Despite what Renge said, Kyoya always found a way to get her alone in a room. There he'd convince her to give in to him and after she would tell him it was the last time. The cycle would repeat over and over again. Tamaki was either unaware or he didn't care. Kyoya suspected it was the latter as he made sure to leave marks on Renge's body. Not even Tamaki was that stupid.
Relief washed over Kyoya one sunny afternoon. Tamaki had just moved out, not offering any sort of explanation. Renge rushed in and momentarily froze when she set her eyes on him. "I told him everything." She said once he trapped her against the wall. "I couldn't lie to him, to myself anymore." Kyoya grumbled his approval as he nuzzled her neck. "He had known all this time. I feel so bad. I'm no better than her." Kyoya's protests at her words were clear as daylight. He told her Tamaki never expected more than platonic love from her so she shouldn't feel guilty.
"I on the other hand," Kyoya whispered against her skin, "I want all of you. I love you." Renge's eyes filled with tears. The sobs shook her whole frame and Kyoya declared his love for her over and over again. "I love you so much, I still do. I never stopped."She confessed between sobs. Kyoya kissed her with renewed fervour, clutching her body to his in a tight grip.
And sometimes, if luck is on our side, things change for the better.
I think this is a bit cryptic. Anyway I wanted to write a Kyoya/Renge for sometime now but couldn't find anything to inspire me. I hope this makes for a good read.
