The Overflow

Chapter 17

Tamaki carried her to shore as a prince would do to his princess. The rest of the Host Club were filled with excitement and worry as they began to greet them. "Haru-chan!" Honey yelled out to her while the twins yelled out to Tamaki. "Boss!" I rather stayed silent, restricted from my tears and being ashamed of my emotions. Kyoya seemed more worried about my state rather than his best friend, who was clearly fine physically. "What about those guys?" Tamaki asked in all seriousness. "We had them leave their ID cards and courteously asked them to leave. The girls have returned to the hotel. I have already called for a doctor, so one should be here soon." Kyoya informed the others while still holding onto me. "I'm fine. I don't need a doctor." Haruhi replied coldly catching bits of the boy's conversation, she then took the approach of getting out of Tamaki's arms. Tamaki was furious. "What were you thinking? You know, you're not like Honey Senpai. You're not a martial arts master." Tamaki voiced before grabbing hold of her shoulders. "Why did you confront them? What made you think you would stand a chance? You against two boys?" The boy asked a few questions trying to push the girl to realize her mistakes. "But it doesn't matter that they're boys and I'm a girl. I was there, I had to do something. There wasn't any time to think-" Haruhi stood tall in her opinion but as Tamaki pressed on a discriminatory stab at today's events. There was a bigger stand needing to take place. "That's no excuse you idiot! Don't forget you're a girl!" He shouted while glaring at the girl, however she did not back down but rather glared back at the boy. "Look, I'm sorry you had to come and save me, Senpai, but I don't understand why you're so mad at me right now. I don't think I did anything wrong! Right Lena?" Haruhi asked while looking over for support. This was not a battle I was willing to help her with. Rather, I peeked my head from Kyoya gently before turning towards her direction. I seemed to surprise some of the hosts with my teary eyes, till my tears started to fade within that question. All that resided was anger, anger that needed a target. "Don't you dare ask for my opinion on this Haruhi." At this moment I held back trying to get this situation over with, but she pushed forward, pushing my buttons. "What's wrong with you?" Haruhi asked. "What's wrong with me? The real question is what is wrong with you?" I asked sternly while pointing towards her. "Did or did I not tell you to go get the boys before we got too deep within the situation?" I asked the girl. All she did in return was stutter before settling on a term to favor an explanation. "But -." She tried to explain before I cut her off. "It's a yes or no question, Haruhi." I stated to push for the truth. "Yes, but I c-." Haruhi tried for another excuse. The single yes is all everyone needed to feel as if the world had stopped. Gasps from all the hosts filled the air before our argument continued. "Stop making excuses that you can't hold with support." I scolded the girl slightly, hoping she would apologize and drop it. "They aren't excuses. I was in every right to act as I did." Haruhi argued back with the same remark she gave Tamaki.

I grew tiresome of this argument, so I cut straight to the point. "You are foolish for thinking you could resolve that situation. A girl who has no fighting background and can barely hold an argument, can't win in a situation like that. All you did was throw a few shells and got lucky. " With every point I made, it was like stabbing into her heart. She falters trying to think of remarks to prove herself. "Lucky? I was saving us. And I don't need protection. " Haruhi stated. "Clearly you do, because you can't save yourself. You proved that today. Tamaki had to save you and by the way that was not saving people. You have to make an impact to save people, all you did was put yourself in more danger." I told her she looked bored with the argument and my anger was diminishing with her petty stubborn attitude. "And I'm not here for a lecture, I didn't do anything wrong." Haruhi stated while turning with her back facing me. She took a few steps forward before I stopped her. "Clearly you need it because let me make something clear to you. Drunk men do not think logically, and you apparently don't either. Next time do us all a favor and use that big smart brain that got you into Ouran for something. What you did today will only get yourself or someone else hurt or even worse. Killed. Do me a favor unlike the one today and think about that. Until then, don't bother even saying one word to me." With that being said, the hosts club members seem to almost pick sides as everyone followed behind to the house.
