Poor Haruhi

Ch. 11

The area outside Haruhi's apartment door was getting crowded. There was only space for two average-sized people to stand side-by-side between the railing and the building. The landlady wished she could hear what they were saying from her vantage on the street, she was just stepping out when she saw the gathering above. She had gotten a call about a problem with the fuse-box in 2A again. Silly tenants couldn't even change a fuse and wouldn't walk to the bathroom in a dark hall. She hadn't expected anyone to be up this early, let alone witness some sort of impromptu argument amongst a group of incredibly handsome young men. A tall blonde stood to one side of the Fujioka's door, his arms spread wide, blocking the narrow walkway. In front of him two auburn-haired young men stood next to each other with arms crossed and identical scowls on their faces. Behind them was a tall man with dark hair and a little blonde boy sitting on his shoulder. The dark man stood passively while the boy waved his arms about and spoke with vigor to the blonde in the front. Behind them, a dark-haired young man with glasses yawned widely and scowled. She had met the young men before and didn't think they were troublemakers. If they were still hanging around when she finished in 2A, she would go up and shoo them off her walkway. The landlady chuckled to herself. She didn't remember so many handsome men when she had been in school. Ah, to be young, she thought to herself as she hurried off to rescue the occupants of 2A from their electric box.

Tamaki Suoh pointed his finger viciously in the faces of the boys in front of him. “No way, absolutely not. You took care of her yesterday. I am obligated to care for Haruhi today. It's my turn again. You are lucky I let you stay here without me yesterday.”

The twins flapped their hands at Tamaki's offending digit. “As if! There are two of us, so we should each have a day to watch Haruhi. So, today is still our day!”

Honey nearly fell off Mori's shoulder as he wriggled his displeasure. “No fair! There are two of us, too. And we only got to stay and take care of Haru-chan one day! We deserve an extra day before anybody else.” Honey planted his fists on his hips in defiance. Mori grunted his agreement.

Kyoya sighed deeply and pinched the bridge of his nose under his glasses. “You are all being ridiculous. I made a chart taking into account all our schedules and Haruhi's needs. It's clear that I am the one that should be with Haruhi today. That's the only option that makes sense.”

The bickering continued for several minutes until a sharp whistle rent the air. Tamaki's fingertips left his lips as he stood tall in front of Haruhi's door. The rest of the young men looked at him, startled to silence. “Enough!” He shouted. Everyone took two steps back from Tamaki. He felt a thrill of triumph. He pressed one hand to the building and the other grasped the railing, Haruhi's door behind him to one side. “I don't want any more arguments. I will be spending the night with Haruhi. I know you want to try to stop me, and I am telling you I won't have it. You might as well all just leave and let me have her. I won't let you keep me from her tonight!”

A gentle wind tossed Tamaki's hair. His chest swelled with pride as he saw the others readying to retreat. He had won.

Tamaki jumped then stiffened as he felt a heavy hand fall on his shoulder and grip it like a vice. A horrifyingly familiar voice growled by his ear as light floral perfume tickled his nose.

“Suoh.”

Tamaki's eyes widened. He saw his friends standing before him, their hands raised in surrender. Tamaki's head turned without him willing it to. He took in the manicured fingers and slender wrist, a colorful sleeve to a turned down collar, a face with subtle attractive makeup on a face that had been carefully shaved recently. Then up to the eyes, like looking into the eyes of a demon. A false smile split that face. “I really don't think that will be necessary. In fact I'm here now, so I think maybe you should be-” Tamaki's face went white as he felt the fingers dig further into his shoulder as he prepared for takeoff. “-going.” Haruhi's dad let out a small grunt as he flung the terrified blonde through the air. Ranka wasn't able to fight the satisfied smirk as Tamaki hit a tree across the street with a resounding thud and set off a series of crashes as he made contact with every branch on the way down. He nodded with satisfaction as he turned to the boys frozen in terror behind him.

Ranka smoothed his hair and smiled. “Thank you so much for looking out for Haruhi while I was gone, boys.” He muttered something about golden-haired deviants under his breath. “ I think I will go say good morning to Haruhi. Later, boys!” Ranka swept into the apartment with a flourish and shut the door firmly behind him.

They stood in stunned silence for a moment as they blinked at Haruhi's closed door.

“Well,” Kaoru said with a shrug, “I guess the only thing to do now is see if our King has broken any bones.”

When they landlady came out of 2A she was a little disappointed to see that everything was quiet again and no one seemed to be out and about.

***********************************************************************

Haruhi blew a frustrated puff of air to get her hair out of her eyes as she struggled on her crutches. These things were killing her armpits. It seemed a simple contraption, but she was clearly using them wrong somehow. She sighed with relief as she reached the music room and nudged the door open. The host club members were setting up for the guests that would be joining them soon. She had been standing there watching them scurry around for a few minutes before she was noticed and promptly mobbed. It took Mori picking her up and setting her down carefully several paces away from the overexcited young men, before they settled down enough to let her speak. Haruhi blushed and smiled as Mori gave her a quick squeeze of a hug before he released her.

“I just have a minute. Then my dad is coming to pick me up. He went to talk to the nurse and I got my homework. I should be back to school tomorrow.” Haruhi smiled widely. “I can't wait.”

“How are you feeling, Haru-chan?” Honey asked.

“I'm doing great. They are letting me start putting weight on it tomorrow. The doctor says everything looks good and I won't need surgery, just a little physical therapy. I don't have to take those weird muscle relaxers anymore, either.” She made a face and didn't notice the rest of the host club snap to attention.

She looked down and fidgeted on her crutches. “Anyway, I wanted to stop by for a minute and thank you guys for everything you did. I really appreciate you looking out for me so my dad could stay on his trip. He ended up coming home a little early anyway but at least he got to spend some time there. Between me and the landlady we explained things and he apologized for what happened with Tamaki-senpai.”

Haruhi looked behind her as she heard her father call her name from the hall.

“Just a minute, Dad!”

Ranka poked his head in and smiled gently at his daughter. “OK, sweety. I'll just pull up the car so you don't have to walk so far.”

“Thanks, Dad.” Haruhi turned back to her friends.

She didn't see her father's gaze turn razor-sharp as it landed on Tamaki. Ranka brought up the first two fingers of one hand in a V in front of his face. His fingers pointed at his eyes then turned to jab in Tamaki's direction before Ranka disappeared down the hall. Tamaki paled.

“Anyway, thanks so much, you guys.” She was about to step out the door when she paused and turned back. “Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. Hikaru and Kaoru showed me this really great game when they were with me. I thought we should all get together and play.” The twin's jaws hung open. “See you tomorrow, guys.”

She was just about to step out the door when Honey zipped up to her and whispered furtively in her ear. She grinned and leaned down, whispering back. Haruhi hobbled down the hall, hoping she wasn't making her father wait.

Honey walked slowly back to the group with a mystified look on his face.

“What is it?” Tamaki asked, unable to contain his curiosity.

Honey looked up at him quizzically as he hugged Usa-chan. “What's polyamory? And how do you play Hitachiin-modified truth or dare?”

All eyes flew to the twins. They looked at each other and smiled.

“How do you all feel about a little weekend get-together once Haruhi is all healed up?” Hikaru asked.

Kaoru stood behind him and rested his chin on Hikaru's shoulder. “We could have a nice barbeque.”

“And Haruhi can be dessert.”

Robin note: The end! I really hope you like the story. I am planning on going back and cleaning up a few things. I really want to tweak Tamaki's chapter. I also want to go through and check continuity for how everyone is speaking and behaving and fix a few things there. If there is anything you would like to suggest please feel free and I will take it into consideration as I am trying to shine things up. Thanks to everyone's wonderful and helpful comments! They really kept me going! Sorry again for the long times between updates! Hugs and kisses!
