A/N This will be an interesting chapter.

It had been a full two weeks and not a word had been said between you and Hikaru.

Of course, whenever he saw you he offered you a hazy -and fake- smile but besides that he gave no other forms of interaction. You even tried creating an appointment with a few others girls -Seiko tagged along, after basically inviting herself- to see Hikaru and Kaoru 'perform' but Hikaru never acknowledged you.

Whenever you worked your Hostess duties, he refused to even glance in your direction and you were starting to get fed up.

It was his fault he did those things to Nao, and it was for being so childish... so why did you feel so bad?

You were waiting for an oppurtunity to present itself so you could talk to Hikaru, at least that's what you told yourself. Many times you could've talked to him but you did not have the faintest idea of what you were going to say.

Sorry I yelled at you after you attacked my potential boyfriend,

No.

I didn't mean what I said, I swear! I was just being emotionally.

Ha, no.

I don't even like Nao in that way... why were you so jealous?

The best one you had so far. But, did you actually like Nao in that way, and was Hikaru even jealous at all? He seemed like the type of person that would want to protect his friends... maybe he was protecting you?

In his twisted mind, sabotaging a date could be considered protecting...

He was weird, that's all you knew for sure.

"Y/N, would you come here a moment?" Your eyes darted up to where Kyoya was sitting, and you shook your head in confusion as you looked at two guests whom seemed slightly irritated.

Both guys were peering at you with annoyed expression on their visages.

Kyoya was sitting at a nearby table, yet his laptop screen's light reflected onto his glasses.

"E-Excuse me," You told the two guests as you moved from your position on the soft couch, and set your teacup down on it's saucer. A delicate klink could be heard as you set the chine cup down hardered than you intended.

Quickly, you made your way over to Kyoya, who did not look that pleased with you.

"That's the third time,"

"What?" You asked looking to make eye contact.

Kyoya glanced up to look you in the eye and it scared you to your core. "You've zoned out with clients. That's the third time." He corrected.

"This week?"

"This afternoon."

"Oh," was all you could say, as a guilty feeling started to arise in you.

"This couldn't have anything to do with the Hikaru situation, does?"

"Wha-?"

"If so, fix it. I have to admit that it gets boring around here when one of twins aren't themselves. Boring for the guests that is,"

"Wait why do you assume I'm in a situation with him?"

"Call it a hunch, if you will."

Momentarily, your eyes wandered over to Hikaru whom was talking to his brother Kaoru... normally. He didn't seem stoic or solemn- he was behaving like Hikaru. Maybe Kyoya and Kaoru were wrong and had no idea what they were talking about.
