I've been listening to Rhianna-better have my money, like non-stop. It's stuck in my head.

Disclaimer: never

Where was I? I thought to myself as I kept my eyes closed. Pressing my face into what I knew was a pillow, I tugged on the blanket. It was warm and I felt so comfortable I didn't want to move. At some point I was going to have to get it and it might as well be now. I slowly opened my eyes and for a moment I was lost. This wasn't my room or my bed. Then it all flooded back to me.

I was in Mitsukuni's house in his room in his bed...

My face flushed a red color and I covered my cheeks. He and I had actually did something so intimate yesterday.I can't say that I didn't want this because I did. I had told him it was alright and I was ready. I pushed my hair out of my face and sat up. The first thing I realize was that I was most definitely naked. The thought made me blush even more. I tried to keep from freaking out as I felt something touch my waist. I glanced down as calmly as I could to see the smaller blond fast asleep. He had buried his face into his pink fluffy pillow and his arms around my hips. I swallowed hard.

The second thing I realized was that my body was beyond sore. I groaned in embarrassment at the thought. Why was thinking about sex so awkward for me? My counter part seemed to be completely fine with the entire situation seeing that he wasn't conscious. Now I was left alone with my thoughts and I didn't know if I wanted that considering neither of us were clothed. I wanted to change that aspect but I was afraid to wake up Mitsukuni. He had always been irritated whenever he was suddenly woken up from his sleep.

I was conflicted. I wanted to wear clothes, but then I would have to deal with whatever happened after I attempted to get them. I squinted my eyes through the dark. Where were my clothes anyway? I searched the room with my eyes and my mouth dropped open when I saw them on the other side of the room. I distinctly remember taking them off on the bed. I turned my head and narrowed my eyes at the sleeping boy.

He knew what I was planning to do.

The little devil.

No matter, I wasn't going to let him win. I gulped before I slowly attempted to detach his arms from my sides only to be taken by surprise. I yelped when I was flipped on my back. Mitsukuni was looking at me with an innocent puffy eyed expression. He hovered over me and at the moment I realized that I was exposed. I turned red once again and quickly pulled the pillow from under my head to cover my body. I held it against my chest in embarrassment. I saw him raise his brow at me.

I covered my eyes as I mumbled into the pillow. "Don't look at me like that."

"Oh K-chan, don't act so embarrassed. I did get a good look at you yesterday so there's no need to cover up." My eyes shot up to him as my cheeks heated. He started to grin to my annoyance.

I puffed out my cheeks. "W-Well that's just..."

He flopped down on top of the pillow I was covering myself with so that his face was much closer to mine. "K-chan you're acting like you hated it and me." He tilted his head as he waited for me to reply. I bit my lip. He was setting me up to say something that would he knew would embarrass me to no end.

I huffed. "Your gonna make me say it, aren't you?"

"Say what?" He asked innocently, though a flowery smile was in the midst.

We were both silent and I slowly spoke. "I don't hate you. You know exactly how I feel and...I..." It seemed like he was waiting for me to fall for his trap. Nope. "...guess you were okay." I grinned up at him. Though I was just teasing, amazing was the word I would picked if I wasn't trying to get a rise out of him.

His face dropped from anticipation to something I couldn't describe before he looked at my mocking grin. "So I was just okay?"

"Mm, I think I need my clothes." I said changing the subject.

"The sounds you were making tell me different." He said

I blushed but didn't look directly at him. "These sheets are pretty."

"K-chan." He groaned. "You're making fun of me."

"Now why would I ever do that?" I asked playing with the fabric of his sheets.

"Hm!" He pouted. I muffled my laugh under the pillow. I watched Mitsukuni puff out his cheeks at me. Perhaps I was hurting his male pride, maybe I shouldn't tease him so much on something like this. It was our first after all and I was becoming more comfortable though I'd really like to put on my clothes. I was about to say something to him before I closed my mouth when he had a certain look on his face that seemed all to familiar.

Uh oh.

He smiled at me with the calmest expression before he sat up. I looked at him warily. He giggled at me and that somehow made me much more nervous then I already was. "K-chan?"

"Yes..." I said with a cautious tone. I have never been so scare of his adorable little face in my entire time of knowing him. I backed up to the head board still holding the large pillow against my body. He glanced to it only for a moment when I realized what he was about to do. "Oh, no, no-"

...and the pillow was gone.

I gasped. I tried to escape though he was right in front of me. We stared at each other when he looked me over once before bringing his eyes back up to mine. This made me blush. I was almost tempted to do the same but didn't risk whatever he had planned for me. "K-chan?"

I swallowed. "Y-Yes?"

He tilted his head moving in close. "Am I making you nervous?"

"Well..."

"Because there's no need to be." He said with a flowery smile.

"Right..." I said slowly. What was he getting at.

"We should be more comfortable around each other now, right?" Mitsukuni reasoned. I nodded. Though somehow I didn't think that was all there was to it. Why did I think there was more to this conversation. "You shouldn't be scared to look at my body and yours is very beautiful, kay?" I blushed but nodded.

Maybe this really was all he was trying to say. I started to lower my guard and Mitsukuni saw this as he smiled. He quickly moved in as close as possible and kissed me. I didn't push him away and when he pulled back he whispered. "After all K-chan was very eager yesterday, no going back now, right~"

My mouth dropped open as last night played back in my head. "Oh my god..."

"Don't be embarrassed you were cute."

"Stop it or I'll bite your ear...wait never mind." I take it back he might actually enjoy that now with that look on his face. "Come on we have to get up at some point. What about your parent's and brother?"

"Oh alright. I guess your right, K-chan." He said with a pout. I rolled my eyes as I quickly pulled on the clothes Mitsukuni lent to me yesterday. I pulled down my shirt and sighed. I'm glad I don't wear revealing clothes unless forced otherwise everyone would see the marks he gave me. I pulled my hair back over my shoulder seeing that I could find my pony tail holder. I was starting to remember why I hated long hair. I wanted to cut it again but everyone says they like it.

"Hey, K-chan?"

I turned around to see Mitsukuni already fully dressed. "Yeah?"

"You do like your ring, right?"

I raised my brow not completely sure why he asked.

"Of course I do. Look I love it so much I'm never taking it off...unless you know, I have to." I said presenting him my right hand as I wore it on my middle finger. I saw this and spoke.

"And it fits all of your fingers?" He asked.

"Yeah I'm pretty sure, why?" I asked.

"No reason, just wanted to make sure it fit." Mitsukuni smiled at me before walking over to the door.

"Alright..." I said before walking out the door behind him.

We headed down the hall as he took hold of my hand. "So K-chan I was really just okay?"

I went red again. "Why are you still asking that?"

"Because I want to know. It was special for me and I thought it would be for you too." He said with a pout.

Well now I feel bad for teasing him. "I..." I felt butterflies in my stomach. "you were-" Suddenly my phone rang and I glanced over to him before I looked at who it was. "Tamaki?" I mumbled to myself. Why was he calling me today? I answered. "Hello?"

"KRIS I NEED YOU. I NEED YOU RIGHT NOW!" I winced at the volume of his voice.

"Tamaki calm down and lower your voice, what's wrong?" I asked.

"I don't have much time to explain. I just need you to come with me. Where are you right now?" I glanced down to Mitsukuni who probably heard the frantic yelling coming from my phone. "Hello Kris?"

I sighed. "I'm at Mitsukuni's house right now. Do you-"

"I'll be right there." He said before hanging up the phone. I blinked before ending the call.

I looked back at Mitsukuni. "Apparently our king needs me. He requested my help." I said in a mocking tone.

"What is it that he needs?"

"He didn't say but judging by his loud tone it's serious, at least to him." I sighed. "I better get ready for whatever he has planned for me. Tell your brother and parents I'm sorry for not being able to have dinner with them."

"Okay." He said, though he didn't seem happy that I had to leave so soon.

"Don't be like that. Your free tomorrow, right?" He nodded. "Great then we can hang out then, right, right?" I said poking him in the forehead.

He grinned up at me. "Alright you win."

"Good." I said smiling down at him. Though he grabbed my arm before I got any further away.

"But you owe me for leaving so soon." He said in a matter of fact tone.

"Well I'll see what I can do." I said playing along. "We can play the laughing game again...if you want." His eyes shot up to me in anticipation. "But I'm in charge." This only seemed to make him more excited. He nodded happily. "I better find the clothes I actually came here with." I need a shower too. I felt grimy.

"Since your going out with Tamaki then maybe you should get cleaned up." Mitsukuni suggested. I nodded in agreement. "You can use my bathroom and I'll have Yui-chan to get your clothes."

"Thank you." I said walking into the bathroom. I slowly stripped off my clothes as I looked in the mirror. I didn't want to even think it while I was with Mitsukuni, but the evidence on my body shoes it. Mitsukuni was aggressive. I blushed at the thought. Great now I'm stuck with yesterdays images in my head. I took a deep breath and stepped into the shower. After I was done I wrapped the towel around my body as I saw that my clothes were left on the rack. When were these even left in here? I shrugged before putting the them back on. I would ask Mitsukuni if he had anything else I could borrow, but I felt like I've already done enough taking from him for a while. I took one last glance in the mirror. At least my jacket covered the marks.

I adjusted my top and buttoned up my jeans. Well off to see Tamaki. I walked out of the bathroom and saw Mitsukuni waiting by the door. He looked me over. "I'm sad I didn't get to enjoy this when you were wearing it for me, K-chan."

"I'm not wearing this for Tamaki. This is just the only thing I have and I'm sure with the way he sounded on the phone he won't be paying any attention to my clothes." We walked toward the entrance and it felt like Tamaki knew I would be there at that moment. His limo zoomed in and the he put his window down.

"Hello Kris, Honey sempai." From the look on his face he seemed stressed and I didn't really want to add to that. Whatever it was. I glanced over at Mitsukuni he was smiling but I knew that he was disappointed that I had to leave. Suddenly something came to mind.

"Mitsukuni." I called. He peered up at me. I took a deep breathe and went over to his ear. "You were great." He blinked at me as I quickly walked over to the car. I sat next Tamaki as I waved Mitsukuni good-bye. I saw the biggest smile forming on his face which only made me more embarrassed. I turned away quickly and when we were finally on our way I sat back with a sigh. "Tamaki what is it that has you so bothered?"

"Haruhi invited me to hang out with her at Misuzu-chi's." I blinked.

"She did?" I asked slowly. He nodded frantically. "So why does that call for you bringing me?"

"I'm to scared to be alone with her!" He said as if it was obvious.

"You don't want to hang out with her?" I asked.

"NO, no! I'd just feel nervous if it was just the two of us." He explained.

"So you decided that the best way to deal with that is making me the third wheel while you two hang out together?" I asked.

"What third wheel, oh Kris your making this sounded like a date...because that's not what it is! It's just nice family time..."

"Again why make me go? Why didn't you call Kyoya, he's your closest friend." I said not fully understanding.

"Well your Haruhi's closest friend and I just thought that she would feel more comfortable with you around. Plus, you are my sister."

I would feel touched but I still felt like this could have been a great chance for Tamaki and Haruhi to get together or at least attempted. "Well Kyoya is your wife."

Tamaki opened his mouth but didn't have much to say to that. He decided to change the subject as he looked at my outfit.

Crap.

"My, my what are you wearing? Is this for me you didn't have to get all dolled up for your dear older brother." He said.

I deadpanned. "It wasn't for you. I just didn't have anything else to wear."

"I'm not understanding." He said with a confused expression.

"I...slept...uh stay over at Mitsukuni's house yesterday because of all the rain." He continued to stare at me. "Ranka and my aunt forced me to wear this. I had no choice in the matter."

"I see." He said moving uncomfortably close to me. So much so that I was backed up against the door. His was directly in front of mine.

"Tamaki what are you doing?" I asked cautiously.

"There's something different about you today." He said.

"No there's not...well besides the clothes, nothing really different." I said.

"No, no that's not it." He said shaking his head. I gulped feeling uncomfortable and strangely nervous.

"Maybe your just imagining things." We both stared at each other for a while.

"You...you have a bruise on your collar bone." He said eyeing me carefully. I realized what he was talking about and covered it quickly.

"It's nothing, just knicked it against the door is all." I lied.

"There was a bruise just like it on your neck about two weeks ago." He said. I stared at him not having anything to say. His face started to turn red. "Kris these...aren't bruises are they?" He asked though he seemed to have figured it out.

"In a way they are." I said becoming embarrassed myself.

"You and Mitsukuni.."

"Are taking another step in our relationship." Is all I said, trying my hardest not to melt through the car seat.

He soon became serious. "Will I need to be having a talk with him?"

I shook my head. "No, no I don't think so."

"Do I need to have a talk with you?" He asked. I raised my brow.

"What are you going to say?" I asked crossing my arms at him.

"Um, be safe?" He said. I busted out laughing. "D-Don't laugh I'm serious. Kris!"

"Okay, okay, I'll do the right thing, dear sweet older brother...as long as you do the same with Haruhi."

Tamaki sputtered as I continued to laugh at him. I smiled when he didn't deny anything. Maybe Haruhi was really taking on the next step with Tamaki so that they would finally get together. I was going to have a party when that happens. When we finally reached Misuzu-chi's and I got out and stretched. When we walked inside I saw Misuzu-chi walking down the stairs when he spotted us he was over in less then a moment.

"Oh Kris dear look at you, beautiful, my you really have changed since last year." He said circling around me. I blushed as I scratched my neck.

"Uh not really, thank you though." I saw him look up at Tamaki.

"Hm, I saw you earlier this week are you here to see Haruhi? She's off today." He said.

"I know she asked me if I'd like to come in today to hang out." Tamaki said feeling a bit shy about the subject.

"Oh is that so." He said glancing over to me. "You know I really wished that you would have came to work this summer. The ladies loved you last year."

I sweat-dropped. "Uh, sorry Misuzu-chi, I've been busy."

"Oh I'm not saying that to make you guilty dear besides I have my daughter here to help." I blinked.

"Your daughter?" I asked.

"You didn't see her last year. She stay's with her mother and stepfather. But she's here to help, isn't that wonderful~"

"Yeah, definitely." I said. I glanced up to see Haruhi coming down the stairs. "Tamaki, why don't you say hi to Haruhi while Misuzu-chi and I catch up."

"Oh uh, alright..." He said shuffling over to her. I grinned at them and turned back to Misuzu.

"Playing match maker are we?" He asked with a knowing expression.

"Maybe..." I said not looking directly at him. "I can help out here if you want since Haruhi isn't working today."

"Oh you don't have to. I thought you were here with Tamaki."

I glanced back to them. "I think they'll be fine. Pass me an apron."

"Oh I have a new one that you'll absolutely adore. Hold on let me go get it!" He said in a giddy tone as he walked out the area. Pushing any loose hairs from my face, I started picking up dirty dishes off the tables as I saw a tanned girl with red lipstick staring at me.

"Um, hello?" Is all I could think of to say.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

I blinked at her bluntness. Though I was use to it from my sisters I didn't know this girl so it was strange. "Picking up dishes?"

"Why?" She asked.

"I'm helping out Misuzu while the other worker is off today."

"So you know Haruhi?" The girl asked.

I nodded. "She my friend and neighbor."

"The names Mei Yasumura."

"Kris Carson." I said. "Um, so how do you know Haruhi?"

"I work here too. I'd have to know her name if I worked here, right?" She asked in a sarcastic tone.

I sweat-dropped. "Yeah, I guess so. Wait, are you Misuzu's daughter?"

"Yeah the trany is my dad, can't really do much to change that." She said. Mei put out her hand. "Let me take some of those so it looks like I'm doing something."

"Sure." I said trying to hide my smile. She was kind of funny I'll admit that.

"Hey, so if your Haruhi's friend do you mind tell me who that is." She pointed to the blond talk with Haruhi it seemed like they didn't need me after all.

"Oh that's just Tamaki." I said with a shrug.

"So who is he to you?" She asked. I raised my brow, why so curious?

"My brother." I answered, stacking plates onto each other.

"Really you don't look alike."

"He's not my biological brother, he just likes to call himself as such." I explained, starting to wonder why this girl was asking as many questions as she was.

"Oh I see and who is Haruhi to him?" Mei asked. I looked up at her slowly wanting to say they were together but sadly I couldn't.

"Their friends." For now.

"Oh." She said with a grin. "I saw him come in here earlier this week. He was really nice to me and I got to say, he is finnnnee. Mind introducing me to him?"

My eyes widened. "To Tamaki?"

"Yeah, who else is here, Haruhi?" She said crossing her arms.

"Um okay just let me put these up." I said referring to the dishes. I took them all into the back as Misuzu came out with the apron.

"I found it~" He said.

"It's nice." I said setting the dishes down in the sink. "I met your daughter."

"Oh she's something else isn't she."

"Yep, your right about that." I said in all honesty. I took the apron from him as he smiled over at me. "Thanks...it really is nice."

"Well I won't keep you from bonding it would be nice to see her talking with a nice young lady such as yourself. Go on!" He said. I did as he said and awkwardly walked out of the kitchen. Mei was leaning up next to a table waiting for me. She stood up as I walked up to her.

"Come on go over there and I'll follow you." She said.

I sighed. "Okay." We walked over to them and Haruhi glanced up to me.

"Hi Kris, wow." She said looking at my outfit.

"Your dad." Is all I had to say and she understood. "Anyway, um so what are you guys talking about?"

"There's a festival at the end of this week to celebrate the coming of summer or so it seems. You would know this if you had come to the table with me, Kris." Tamaki said smiling up at me. I could tell what that shiny smile meant.

Why did you leave me alone with her!

"Well I had somethings to do and I'm sure everything was fine." I said smiling right back at him. Haruhi looked between us with a raised brow.

"Uh, is there something wrong?" She asked.

"No, no, Tamaki's just can't seem to do things on his own." I said waving my hand at her.

"Hey!"

"So there's a festival?" I asked ignoring Tamaki.

"Yeah, I was wondering if everyone wanted to go." Haruhi said.

"That sounds like fun. It would give me a chance to see Kaoru, Rin and everone else." I suddenly heard a loud cough behind me. I sighed.

Mei.

I turned to Tamaki as he sulked in his chair. "So Tamaki, I just met a new friend today that says she knows you."

"Really who?" He asked before looking behind me as Mei walked up.

"Hey, uh she said your name was Tamaki, my name is Mei." She said. I raised my brow at this sudden shyness. "I just wanted to say thank you for helping out with those plates I broke. My dad would have seriously killed me if he saw all that on the floor."

"No, it was my pleasure. I couldn't just leave you helpless. Though I'm sure you would have been okay, you seem very capable."

She laughed. "Yeah sure."

"No I'm serious, you said your name was Mei?" She nodded. "That's a very beautiful name you have, matches you very well." Oh great his host kinglyness was coming out and I had no way to stop it. From what I can see Mei is just loving it.

"You think? I always thought my name was kind of simple."

"I think it's short and sweet." He said smiling up at her.

She tucked her hair behind her ear. "Um, so there's this festival coming up and I heard you talking about it. Do you maybe want to hang out for a bit with me?"

"I'd like that very much Mei." He said.

"Cool." She said with a smile. "Make sure you come." She walked out of the room and I looked back at Tamaki.

"So she seems nice." He said. "I think I made a new friend.

My eye twitched. "She just asked you out and you said yes! That's not friendship!" I looked over at Haruhi who seemed be sitting there uncomfortably.

"I...have to go to the bathroom." She said quietly before getting up.

"Wait Haruhi-" She was already gone.

"Tamaki there's a time to be a host and there's a time to be you. Sometimes I think there's no difference for you." I sat down in the seat across from the dense blond.

"I was just being nice to her."

"But she was being more than nice to you. She likes you and you know what I'm just going to say it. You like Haruhi." I leaned forward in my seat and tilted my head. "Well?"

"S-She's my daughter-"

"No Tamaki, Mei is Misuzu's daughter. You and Haruhi are opposite in gender, though not always the case, are attracted to one another." I saw his face turn red.

"What makes you so sure?"

"I've been watching you two dance around each other for over a year. Come on Tamaki, everyone seems to see it but you." I urged. Maybe I was taking it too far, but I couldn't help it. I just wanted to get everything out in the open now.

"E-Even Haruhi?" He asked.

"Yes." I said.

"Then why doesn't she say anything?" He asked.

"Because she's just like you, a dense teenager, who doesn't know how to say anything out loud." I said crossing my arms. He was quiet for a moment. "Listen Tamaki do you remember when you were about to get married last year?"

"How could I forget." He mumbled.

"Well that's how Haruhi felt. She took a whole freaking carriage for you because she didn't want you to get married."

"That was because of the club..."

"No, don't be stupid. She cared enough to fall of a bridge and she was most definitely jealous of Clair. Don't even argue that."

He ruffled up his hair. "But if I say anything wouldn't that mess things up?"

"Mess what up, Tamaki? You telling her how you feel would make everything a lot less awkward for everyone." I said.

"A-Awkward?"

"Yep, it's like your feelings have turned into a whole new person that's begging everyone to tell you to stop being an idiot and confess your feelings."

"Wow." He said blinking at me.

I nodded. "Yep, in conclusion telling her would make everyone happy."

"I see..." He pursed his lips.

I leaned my head to the side. "So my good host King, what are you going to do now?"

Review this awkwardly written chapter with all your heart.
