"it's beautiful Kaoru, thank you." Haruhi said examining the pink blanket, the name"Kyami" elegantly embroidered in the center, a crown had been placed above the name.
"You actually made it?" Tamaki seemed surprised.
"Yeah. I know it's hard to believe. It took a while but I think it turned out okay." Kaoru answered taking a sip of his drink. The hosts were now seated in the living room, Kyoya however couldn't join them that day due to an illness. He didn't offer an further explanation.
"I love it. It means a lot to me that you took the time to do this. With everything you were helping with and everything."
"It's no problem."
"Hika-Chan, are you okay, you're not talking much today."
"I'm alright Honey-senpai, I'll be fine, it's just...it was a long flight and I'm a little tired."Hikaru sighed before standing up.
"Where are you going Hika?" Kaoru watched his twin walk toward the door.
"I'm heading home, I might come back a little later, I just need some sleep, see you guys." Kaoru stood and began to follow.
"No, Kaoru you stay here, you have a lot to talk about."
"Hikaru -" the oldest twin disappeared from view.
"Is Hika-Chan okay Kao-Chan?"
"No. He won't be no matter what I do." He explained the situation and watched as the shorter host looked down at his feet.
"You're leaving us Kao-Chan?"
"No. I promised to be here."
"Kaoru, don't give up your chance to be happy for something that isn't your responsibility." Haruhi said.
"I got myself involved in this. I want to be a host, you guys are important to me. My family and so is Kyami. I like Sylvia but I don't think I can leave here. It's not about helping my mother, if I did that wouldn't be the reason. I'm not sure I'd want to go and leave everything behind. Hikaru wouldn't be coming with me."
"You know Kaoru, if it doesn't work out for you, you can always come home and there's always going to be a place for you in the club if you want it. But you'll never know what'll happen until you try." Tamaki added.
"Yeah but-"
"it's going to be a week at least for you to get the nursery done. Just think about what you think is best for you."
"I will Boss, thanks."
"Kaoru?" Haruhi called causing the teen to focus on her.
"Whatever you choose, we'll always be family, all of us, even Kyami." She rested her hand on her growing stomach.
"Thanks Haruhi." He smiled faintly. "Can I ask you guys a favor?"
"Of course Kao-Chan."
"If I do go, will you look after Hikaru?"
"We'll do that Kaoru,I promise." Tamaki replied.
"You'd come see us and call wouldn't you?"
"Yeah. Maybe you guys could come see me too, you could meet Sylvia."
"That would great." The comment was followed by a long silence.
"I guess I should get started." Kaoru said at last.
"Yeah, I'll come up too." It wasn't long before the hosts were following Kaoru up the stairs to the nursery. The boys began moving the furniture and placing the plastic over the floor.
Haruhi watched rubbing her belly.
She hoped Kyami would be able to know Kaoru and have a relationship with him as she would the other wanted the sense of family and caring each gave. It was her hope that Kaoru found happiness, but even more than that, she hoped his happiness could be found with them.
