Tamaki nodded and smiled, "Haruhi, where do we stand right now? I'm just wondering..."
Haruhi tapped her chin in thought. How did she reply to such a straightforward question? "Um...I don't know...I mean, I'm not sure about my feelings for you and you're not sure about your feelings for me, so..." Haruhi blushed lightly. "What do you think?"
"We should stay friends for now I suppose.. We could try a couple, it just may be awkward at first. But maybe we'd get used to it and we'd find our answer that way." Tamaki blushed looking at her.
Haruhi couldn't help but blush at Tamaki's blush. It was so insanely cute. She got up, leaving the plate on the table, and walked over to Tamaki's bedside. "That could work," she said, brushing the hair out of his eyes.
Tamaki nodded and smiled at her, "Experimentation can be romantic." And then he laughed at his comment.
"Oh really?" Haruhi chuckled also. She didn't know what to say next and found herself mesmerized by Tamaki's oddly purple eyes. "Why are your eyes purple?" she asked without really thinking. She was still in hypnotized Haruhi mode.
Tamaki looked at her weirdly, "Why are my eyes purple...? Maybe because I'm French... French people are known for having odd eye colors."
Haruhi chuckled. "Sorry, that was a really stupid question. They're just so pretty."
Tamaki blushed, "Th-Thanks..."
Haruhi shook her head. "Sorry, they're mesmerizing." She giggled.
Tamaki blushed even deeper, "I've always liked my eyes."
"Same here," Haruhi replied. She was now playing a game to see how red Tamaki's face could get by Haruhi's short comments.
Tamaki nodded, "Your eyes are pretty." Shima knocked on the door and entered, "Master Tamaki, the doctor is here." Tamaki sighed but nodded, "Okay, tell he can come in."
Haruhi noticed that while looking at Tamaki's eyes she'd sat on the bed. She stood up, took the plate of half-eaten now cold food and gave it to Shima. "Thank you for the meal. It was lovely," Haruhi smiled that bright smile.
"You aren't leaving are you Haruhi?" Tamaki asked her.
"I wasn't planning on it," Haruhi replied. "I'm the guest. The least I can do is compliment the chef!" Haruhi giggled.
Tamaki smiled, "Hooray!" Shima took their plates, nodded to Haruhi with a smile.
Haruhi smiled at the man a year older than her who still cheered like a little kid.
The doctor soon came in and seemed to be mad to see another person in the room. "Excuse me, Miss, can you please give me some privacy with Suoh-sama?" Tamaki looked at the doctor, "Can she please stay?" The doctor couldn't go against him or he'd be fired, "Okay, just sit where you're out of my way."
Haruhi listened to the doctor. She took a seat on the couch, watching the doctor place the stethoscope on Tamaki's bare chest (this causing her to blush crimson).
Tamaki tried to breath regularly when he took his pulse. The stethoscope was cold against his burning chest. He hated the wooden Popsicle stick thing the doctor put in his mouth. It did not taste like Popsicles at all. The doctor hummed and placed a thermometer in his armpit and checked his heart beat again, and felt his temperature.
Haruhi was nervously playing with her hands, waiting for the doctor to diagnose the illness, because at the moment she really wanted to kiss him but didn't want to get his sickness.
Tamaki was getting nervous as the doctor kept redoing things and writing things down. He kept humming too, which was starting to drive him crazy. He suddenly began to cough harsher than before. He choked a little bit during his coughing. The doctor raised his head and slapped his back a few times. Tamaki was turning red in his face.
Haruhi kept her thoughts to herself; that doctor seemed really harsh. He smacked Tamaki in the back when he started choking, and any other day Haruhi would have laughed at the cartoon-like scene displayed before her, but today of all days she was worried as hell.
Tamaki stopped coughing and leaned back against the bed and gave Haruhi a quick thumbs up. "Hm I'm afraid I'll to bring you into the hospital. We are going to have to blood tests... We are catching whatever this is early. So it's quite hard to diagnose you, since all I can get is rapid changes in temperature, off pulse, and lots of coughing... Well I'd like to bring you in right away. I will go speak with your father." The doctor packed up and left for Mr. Suoh's office. Tamaki breathed in and out deeply, he felt nausea.
Haruhi was shocked that Tamaki needed to go to the hospital over such a thing. The doctor left and Haruhi ran to his side, a worried and puzzled look on her face. "I thought this was just a cold," she said, looking at him.
Tamaki laughed, "So did I Haruhi. That's what it seemed like. But apparently not. Now I feel my father may be right." He smiled at her, "But I'm still gonna hope for the best!"
Haruhi smiled. That Tamaki, always finding the better of things. "Did you want me to come to the hospital with you, or go home?" she asked. "I feel if I was there I might take up space..."
Tamaki shrugged, "You can go home, Haruhi. I'll be okay. Besides your dad wouldn't be happy if you weren't home..."
"Oh crap! My dad!" Haruhi exclaimed. "I've gotta go. Call me when you get home, okay?" Haruhi waved out the door, hastily grabbing her jacket and almost running into the doctor and Mr. Suoh as she ran. Mr. Suoh chuckled at the girl, opening the door to Tamaki's bedroom.
"Bye!" Tamaki called. He looked at his father and the doctor.
"Son, we're gonna be taking you to the hospital, so I'll pack you a bag."
Tamaki nodded stood up. "Ow!" He shouted, sitting back down. He grabbed his knee.
The doctor came next to him, "What's wrong?"
"My knee just had a burst of pain." Tamaki told him.
The doctor looked worried, "We need to get you to the doctor. This sounds like it might be serious."
Tamaki was able to make it to the limo with help from his dad and the doctor.
"Where does it hurt the most?" Tamaki pointed to where his joint was and the doctor grimaced writing it down.
Haruhi pedaled home so fast on her bike she was surprised her feet didn't hurt more than they did. She arrived home, her father looking at her with pure disgust.
"And where have you been, Haruhi?" he asked, sipping tea.
"Dad, a friend from school was sick so they asked me to come over. They're on their way to the hospital right now," Haruhi replied, Ranka hearing the tone of fear in her voice.
"Who is this friend from school?" Haruhi looked down. "Oh no, it's not...?"
"Yes, it is."
Tamaki felt like he was dying, his throat was on fire. He kept coughing and they got worse and worse, sometimes he even coughed up bloody mucus, his knee was hurting, he was having a rather harsh chest pain as well. Mr. Suoh watched his son be in pain, he didn't like not being able to do anything.
Haruhi was pacing around the room, Ranka watching her in silence. He hated seeing her like this, especially over a certain blonde dumbass. "Er, Haruhi?" Ranka asked sweetly. "Would you like to do something to keep your mind off of dumba-I mean, Tamaki?"
Haruhi looked at her father. He was trying to help, but not in a good way. "I'm fine," she replied, and continued pacing.
Tamaki freaked out when a bunch of doctors and nurses surrounded him and put him in a wheelchair and wheeled him down the hallway to the labs. He was then placed in a chair. A doctor came in and didn't even speak to him. Just started preparing his arm for the blood taking. He was scared, no he was worried. He didn't want to be horribly sick! This was not good! Why did he have to get sick? He sighed he hoped it wasn't Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, that's what his mother has been suffering through…
Haruhi couldn't help but wonder how bad it had gotten since Tamaki left. He was incredibly sweet once you got to know him, so why did it have to happen to him? Of all people, why couldn't it have happened to her instead?
Tamaki was soon in a hospital room, in the usual gown, and lying down. He grabbed his phone and dialed Haruhi's number, "Haruhi?"
"Senpai!" Haruhi was relieved. "Are you okay? Are you back at your house?"
Tamaki chuckled a little bit, "No, I have to stay at the hospital at least until they know what's wrong." He leaned away from the phone to cough, "I was wondering if you could tell the rest of the Host Club for me. My dad said I can use my phone to talk to you and that's pretty much it."
"Oh...alright. Hope you feel better!" Haruhi smiled, even though Tamaki couldn't see it. "My dad is worried about you, too..." Haruhi lied. She glanced over at her father, who was too busy applying eyeliner to hear her.
"Oh cool..." Tamaki watched as the doctors came in with IVs. His eyes widened, "Haruhi, I'm going to have to call you back... Okay?"
"Okay. Bye," Haruhi replied.
Tamaki hung up and watched as they set up the IV bags and then inserted them into his arms and into his chest.
Haruhi paced even faster now. If it really was just a cold, they'd have been done. Ranka watched her nervously, knowing nothing he said or did could help her.
Tamaki didn't like needles so having to watch all the needles go into him was driving him crazy. And every time he coughed the nurses would shush him and tell him to stop. He hadn't seen his dad since they arrived and he just wanted to see a face he knew.
"Haruhi," Ranka finally decided to talk to her. She only looked in his direction. "Don't you think you're overreacting?"
Haruhi scowled. "Overreacting?" she repeated. "My friend is in the hospital, could be on his deathbed, and you think I'm OVERREACTING?!" Haruhi shrieked. "You're so inconsiderate!" Haruhi growled in disgust and walked out the apartment door, not bothering to grab a coat in the chill night air.
Tamaki sighed, he wanted to call Haruhi back but was afraid he was being a bother…
Haruhi had slammed the door pretty hard, she had to admit. She decided to call the other hosts and inform them of Tamaki's condition. He first called Kyoya, thinking he deserved to be the first of the hosts to know. She dialed his number and pressed the phone to her ear. "Hello, Kyoya? It's Haruhi."
"Um, hello Haruhi. Why are you calling, might I ask?"
"I just wanted to tell you that Tamaki is at the hospital being checked at right now."
"...why is he at the hospital?"
"The sickness he thought was a cold turned out to be...different."
Tamaki smiled when his dad walked in. "I bet the blood work came back excellent didn't it Father?" Tamaki smiled happily at his dad, not noticing the look on his face.
"Tamaki, this is serious right now. This could be your life."
Tamaki froze and stared at his dad, "R-Really?"
He nodded, "Your lupus wasn't fully healed yet as you recall, and all the remaining symptoms were ones that matched the disease you have contracted."
"What do I have Father?"
"Tamaki, you have double pneumonia as well as the remaining bits of lupus."
Tamaki's eyes grew huge, "I have pneumonia?"
His dad sighed and nodded, "Sadly yes, and it's very well developed inside of you. Because of the lupus we never caught it when it was just starting. You're gonna be in here for awhile Tamaki recovering and getting treated."
"But I have to tell all of my friends that I had lupus then..."
His dad nodded, "I know it's going to be hard, but they'll need to know sooner or later..."
Tamaki nodded and just lay back down onto the bed, "Father, am I going to die?"
"Nobody can tell right now Tamaki."
"We must inform the other hosts," Kyoya sighed. "We must be prepared for the worst."
"Kyoya..? You're not suggesting he'll...die?" Haruhi asked.
Kyoya sighed. "The symptoms you told me match up to quite a few illnesses, most of them leading to death if not treated right away. Haruhi, I'm sure Tamaki hasn't told you this yet, but he told me if something were to happen to him he wanted you to take over the host club." Haruhi remained silent. Her...in charge...of the host club?
"Why not you, Kyoya?"
"I'm the accountant man. Plus I turned down his offer," he replied simply.
Tamaki wanted to call Haruhi but not until he knew more, so when the doctor came in he asked a few questions. "How likely is it that I'll die?"
The doctor looked at him with sympathy, "57% chance of you dying I'm afraid."
Tamaki's eyes enlarged, "That's more than a chance of living!" Tamaki exclaimed, "Is this contagious?"
"Well...We can't really tell. We don't know how long you've exactly had it, so it's hard to tell if you would have given it to anyone. We're guessing if you had we would have already treated them. Is that all?"
Tamaki nodded and grabbed his phone and dialed Haruhi's number, hoping she'd answer.
"Hold on a second, Kyoya," Haruhi talked into her phone. "Someone else is calling me." Haruhi was relieved when it was Tamaki. "Tamaki! Did they figure out what you have yet?" she asked hopefully.
"Yeah.. I have something to you all as well... Can you get the others and head down here? It's something I need to tell you all in person... Then I can tell you all what I have." Tamaki asked quietly, he didn't want the others to know. But they had to know about his lupus or else Kyoya was going to get skeptical about how they hadn't caught it.
"Oh...alright, then. What hospital are you staying at, again?"
"Just tell Kyoya to take you to main and tell the others Main. They'll all know right away what I'm talking about." Tamaki told her.
"Alright..." Haruhi was slightly confused. Still she dialed Kyoya and asked him to take her to Main. He agreed and as Haruhi waited for Kyoya's limo to pull up she called the other hosts and told them the same. Kyoya's limo pulled up and Kyoya hopped out of the back seat.
"Haruhi, won't you come with me." Kyoya said not as a question back as a command. She shrugged and hopped into the limousine with him.
Tamaki fidgeted as much as he was allowed to, waiting for the others. He was so nervous. No one except him and his father were to know that he had gotten lupus from his maman. And now he had to tell his friends at the worst time ever.
Haruhi and Kyoya sat in complete silence on the way to wherever they were going. Haruhi played with her shirt cuff, trying to avoid starting a discussion at a time like this. It must be bad if Tamaki needs every host present to announce what is going on.
Tamaki's doctor came in with a three cups of different colored liquid.
"What are those?" He asked suspiciously.
"Your medications to help you get better." he told him. He handed him a dark green one, "This one will help the coughs and sore throat." Tamaki drank it, and was immediately given a pink one, "For nausea and tiredness." Tamaki didn't like the taste of that one. Next came a deep purple, "For dizziness and pain." Tamaki liked that one the best. The doctor then left, leaving Tamaki to this thoughts.
The car stopped suddenly, causing Haruhi to jolt forward in her seat belt. Kyoya, however, remained completely still. Kyoya stepped out of the car, holding out his hand for Haruhi. She grabbed it happily, seeing the rest of the hosts congregating in the parking lot.
Tamaki was starting to get drowsy from, what he assumed, the tiredness medicine. He had huge coughing fit as his father came back in, smiling at his sick son. Tamaki gave him a thumbs up through the coughing. He felt like it was forever, his father told him over the coughs that he wouldn't leave until he was done. Tamaki felt bad, he knew his dad had better places to be instead of here.
Haruhi looked at the door to the rich people hospital. It looked more like a five-star hotel than a hospital. The twins wrapped their arms around Haruhi's shoulders, leading her through the large double doors and up to the front counter.
Tamaki finally stopped and apologized to his father. "Why are you apologizing Tamaki? You can't help coughing." Tamaki chuckled at himself. "I brought you some things to do. Now I need to be going, I'm sorry I can't stay longer." Tamaki shook his head, "It's okay Father, thank you."
"We're looking for Tamaki Suoh," the twins said to the lady at the counter in unison. She looked up skeptically.
"And who are you?" she asked.
This time, Kyoya replied. "I am the third son of the Ootori Family, and Tamaki Suoh's guardian. These are his friends, who wish to see him also."
"Room six twelve to your left," she replied, Kyoya adjusting his glasses.
"Kyoya, since when are you Tamaki's guardian?" the twins snickered.
"Since she wouldn't give us the room number," he replied simply.
Tamaki waited more patiently than he was before. He soon started to cough again, this coughing was driving him insane.
The hosts began their way up the steps to Tamaki's hospital room. Even the rooms looked like they were hotel rooms, strangely. The doors slid open with ease, not at all like a normal hospital would. Soon they reached the sixth floor, room six twelve. Haruhi slid the door open with ease, hoping not to wake Tamaki if he was sleeping.
Tamaki was hoping he wouldn't be coughing like this when the Host Club got there. When the door opened and he was still coughing, he knew that he was not going to be getting what he wanted. He noticed Haruhi and did his little sign language thing and gave her a thumbs up. He finished and smiled at all of his friends and was about to say hi when the IV machine started to beep, signaling it was time for the liquid to get poured into him. "Hi guys." he said in his now raspy voice.
"T-Tamaki?" Haruhi questioned. When she'd left him all it was was a simple cough. How could it turn into this? Especially as quickly as it did?
"I know it sounds worse than earlier..." he mumbled, yet still smiling. He was just happy to see all of his friends. "So might as well just go ahead and start explaining myself to all of you, right?"
Haruhi still stared open-mouthed. She felt rude for staring, but she was very shocked. How did that become this? Haruhi nodded her head, at a loss for words.
"Okay so as you all know, my mother is greatly sick. She's sick with SLE or systemic lupus erythematosus. It is genetic and is the only way to contract it. I was born with the disease... And was treated right away. Thus I'm still healing at the moment... But I caught pneumonia quite a while ago which soon developed into double pneumonia. They never caught it right away because the symptoms I was having were the same as the recovering lupus ones." Tamaki took a break to cough up some blood into the bucket next to his bed, "So I have lupus and double pneumonia together and they say its just going to keep getting worse and worse unless they act fast." He then smiled at them all to show that he wasn't too worried. "The doctor says it definitely is in a deathly state and I have as of right now a 43% chance of living through this. He says it may change over time." He then stopped to let them comprehend and to breathe through the chest pain that's pain level was getting higher again.
Haruhi was on the verge of tears. She didn't want to cry, but from the sounds of it Tamaki wasn't going to make it. Suddenly Haruhi's eyes got wide. "Is it contagious?" she asked, worried she might have gotten it from hanging out with Tamaki so much lately.
"The lupus isn't. But he said he's pretty sure the pneumonia isn't. He said the person who would have gotten infected would have already been having symptoms." Tamaki told her, a reassuring grin on his face.
Haruhi wasn't relieved by this answer. If anything, she'd want to be right next to him. She still felt like she's the one who caused all this. She turned her back to the senpai, trying not to cry in front of him. A few tears streamed down her face, and she couldn't stop crying. She ran out of the room, head in her hands.
Tamaki leaned forward making all the machines start beeping but he paid no mind to them and shouted out to her, "HARUHI!" Kyoya looked at Tamaki and turned on his heel and out the room, he could go talk to Haruhi for Tamaki. Its the least he could do.
Haruhi was out in the hallway, breathing heavily. She heard the door open and close behind her. "Kyoya..." she said softly.
This stopped Kyoya in his tracks. How did she know it was him? He was in even deeper shock when Haruhi pulled him into a hug.
"How could this happen to him?" she sobbed. "I wish it were me!"
Kyoya put his hand on her head, his arm around her waist. "There's a history of illnesses in his family, Haruhi. I know it seems bad right now, but Tamaki...he's something else, you know?" Kyoya chuckled. "I still remember when I agreed to getting that kotatsu. 'Kyoya, mon ami,' he sang. I wonder what that really means," Kyoya chuckled at the thought.
Tamaki sat in the room as his monitors slowly went back to normal as his nurses filed in to fix them. The twins were by his side, trying to comfort him. It wasn't really working. Mori stood by and kept his hand on the blonde's shoulder, his way of comforting. Tamaki took deep breaths, healing himself from the newly burning pain. The nurses looked at him concerned and he just gave his thumbs up.
Haruhi looked up at Kyoya. He was so calm, how was he so calm at a time like this? It was a miracle he was there to help with the rest of the host club, otherwise things would have been broken, along with people, such as her. "Do you think he'll be alright?" she asked, breaking the silence.
Kyoya thought for a moment. "I have a feeling it could go either way at the moment," he replied. "Haruhi, don't worry. Doctors these days are great, especially here. And if something goes wrong-" Kyoya stopped.
Haruhi was crying again. Kyoya was worried also; his eyes got watery. However, he wasn't about to have an emotional scene in the hallway with the girl.
"Do you want to go back in to see Tamaki now?" he smiled.
Tamaki was thanking Mori and the twins for their help when he started to cry from the pain in his chest. This caused the others to freak out, Tamaki was moving his hand, trying to find the nurse button. As far as he could tell, the medicine wasn't doing much. He finally found the button and pressed it, wiping his eyes, the tears seemed like they were going to never stop. His heart was racing as he started to get heartburn from the bile in his stomach. His nausea was back.
Haruhi thought for a moment when she saw nurses rushing by in twos and threes, all going through Tamaki's door. She let a single tear fall from her eye. Kyoya took that as a no. "How about we go look in the lobby to see if they have a snack machine?" Kyoya smiled brightly at the girl. She nodded and Kyoya grabbed her hand.
Tamaki was a bit sad that the person he wanted here most, wasn't here. He was happy to have the rest of his friends here,he didn't want to sound ungrateful. But he really wanted Haruhi. The Hosts knew this too. So they did what they could to keep him occupied until Kyoya brought back the brunette. Tamaki smiled at everyone in his room, he knew he had great friends and they were definitely at their greatest at the moment. The nurses soon came back and he told them of the pain. They gave him some extreme pain killers and told him to just wait for it to kick in.
Haruhi was being occupied by an extremely friendly Kyoya while walking down six flights of stairs. He was trying his best to convince her everything would go well, when something completely shocked him. "You know, my dad wasn't my first home after my mom died."
"Hm?" Kyoya replied in awe.
"No, I wanted to live with my Aunt Ying. She died of double pneumonia, you know." A single tear slid from Haruhi's eye. "That's why I wish it was me, senpai. It's no joking matter." Haruhi looked up at the boy with the glasses, whose eyes were watering behind his specks. Haruhi chuckled. "But of course I know that Tamaki is a lot less fragile than my aunt."
"Boss, you really should calm down. Haruhi is fine, she's with Kyoya." Hikaru told him. Kaoru smiled, "Yeah, besides, you need to be worrying about yourself so you can get better and finally ask her out."
Tamaki blushed, but it wasn't very noticeable considering he was already red, "Wh-What are you talking about?"
The twins rolled their eyes, "We know about you and Haruhi's secret meetings. And we have to say Boss, it's a little shocking that you would do such a thing." They smirked at him, making him want to both punch them each in the face and also hug them tightly until the air was sucked out of them.
"Haruhi-" Kyoya reached out to grab her hand. "I never knew that about you. You've been through so much, and yet here you stand today, a beautiful young host." He chuckled. Suddenly his mood changed. "And now I know why you ran out of the room."
Haruhi looked down. Kyoya saw a tear hit the floor. "I just don't want to see another one of the people I love die," she whispered.
Tamaki agreed with the twins however and knew he had to get better. So he shoved everything that wasn't about him getting better out of his head. He needed to concentrate, his life was more important than where Haruhi was with his best friend, he knew Kyoya would keep her safe.
Kyoya wondered about Haruhi so much. There was so much for her to hide that it was nearly impossible to dig it up. Haruhi looked Kyoya straight in the eyes and said, "We can go back now."
"Aren't you hungry, though?" Kyoya asked, half-hoping he could pick up some commoners' chocolate to snack on.
"Tamaki's more important," she said, walking back up the six flights of stairs she just walked down.
Tamaki was laughing with Hikaru and Kaoru about when they had first met and how ridiculous he had been. They were having a good time, except all would go quiet when he could even make the softest sound of a cough or clearing of throat.
Kyoya was surprised at how quickly Haruhi had changed her mind. She was up the steps before he was up the first flight. She opened the door to the room and slipped herself in, closing it behind her tightly. She could feel all the hosts' eyes on her.
Tamaki looked at her and smiled happily at her and waved, "Haruhi! You're back!"
Haruhi smiled at the senpai. "We were just going to get a snack when we realized there weren't any vending machines," Kyoya suddenly appeared next to Haruhi.
"Look, senpai, I'm sorry for running out earlier. I just couldn't handle the whole 'double pneumonia' thing again..."
Tamaki looked at her, "It's fine, Haruhi. It's just great to have you back here with us!"
Kyoya had noticed Haruhi's slip-up on saying 'again', but decided not to point it out. If she was comfortable sharing it with him and only him of the other hosts, then he'd keep the secret for her.
Tamaki, though smiling and acting otherwise, had caught the again but wasn't about to ask her about it and just went back to laughing at his middle school self.
Haruhi sighed with relief as she took a seat in a chair nearby and listened to the tales of a middle-school Tamaki, along with the funny stories of what the twins would do to random people, confusing them with their twinly powers.
Tamaki loved going back to look at memories and he was fond of the memories of when he first met Hikaru and Kaoru, he had been so determined and weird back then. He coughed a little bit, and cleared his throat after, shaking his head trying to get it to go away.
Haruhi would silence herself when Tamaki started coughing; her aunt had died of a coughing fit. He'd return back to normal, and the same grin would spread to her face that she was wearing before his coughing fit began.
Tamaki always felt fine and then out of nowhere the cough would come. It's like random pains he would feel. Or the dizziness whenever he got up to go use the restroom. He sighed a little bit, he didn't like being sick. Especially when he knew it was a good chance he could die tonight or anytime for that matter.
Haruhi had made sure that she would do one thing before Tamaki died, even if she told him on his deathbed. She suddenly realized this while standing in the hallway, that she absolutely positively had feelings for Tamaki. Not the small crush that people had in grade school. She knew from the moment that she hugged Kyoya.
She was in love with Tamaki Suoh.
Tamaki was so focused on willing himself to get better that he never even notice the nurse come in and change his IV bags. He wanted/needed to get better. That he can continue to live! He smiled to himself at the thought. And so it drifted away into something wonderful. Him graduating becoming the successor of the company, marrying Haruhi, having magnificent children who couldn't get the lupus from him, and still being surrounded by the friends he has today.
It was getting late, and the hosts started going home one by one, starting with Mori and Hunny. Haruhi still couldn't go home to her father after storming out previously, so she stayed at the hospital with Tamaki.
"Tamaki, I, uh, have something to tell you..." Haruhi said quietly, playing with her shirt cuffs again for about the fiftieth time that day.
I apologize for any grammatical, spelling, or any sort of mistakes you found. We hope you enjoyed!
