Tomoki's POV (8 Days Till Alphonse Tonnerre Arrives...)

"I'm not wearing that." I deadpanned, staring at the dress in disgust

"Aww, come on Tomoki! You need to match with Tamaki!" I grunted in disapproval, glancing at my brother who was keeping guests at bay until I got ready for the performance

"Once again, no, I agreed to play, not to wear a matching dress." I stated, glaring at the twins who hold the very matchy dress up between them

"Come on Tomo-Chan, just this once, pleeeeeaaaaasssseee~!" Mitsukuni pleaded with me, staring up at me with begging eyes. Don't you dare give me those eyes. I turned around, beginning to walk away from them

"I don't see any harm in you wearing a dress, what's so bad about it?" Haruhi asked me, stopping me in my tracks.

"This one Momma, I want this one!"

"Okay my Little Butterfly, we will get this one. You can wear it for Big Brother's Birthday."

"Yay! Thank you Momma!"

"Tomoki?" I was snapped out of my memory, turning around to see everyone staring at me concerned

"Are you oka-"

"Give me the damn dress, I will do it." I snapped, speed walking over to the twins and roughly grabbing the dress from their clutches. I walked into the dressing room, slamming the door behind me. Damn it... I let my emotions take over... I sighed, looking around to see there was a station to put on makeup and do your hair, but all I needed to do was change into the dress I was holding. I walking into one of the stalls, closing the curtain behind me and began changing. I was changed into the clothing, sighing to myself, not liking my bare legs being in sight, but wearing leggings would just make the dress look stupid. Especially since it isn't the correct shade of black... I exited out of the stall, leaving my uniform inside the stall. I walked up to the full length mirror, seeing myself in it. My eyes wondered up to my hair, remembering of when I was a little girl, never wanting my hair up but now, I always have my hair up. This day, I feel like, I'm experiencing knew things, just because of my brother's club. and I'm liking it somehow. I lifted my hands towards my ponytail, letting my hair down, it cascading down to the middle of my back. I stared at myself in the mirror, shocked as of how much my features seemed to change once I let my hair down. It is as if, my features, become softer, not stoic as they usually are. I heard the squealing of the girls, having me shake my head, it's about time. No more hiding away behind closed doors. I walked towards the door and opened it, to see that the crowd of girls moved to around the Grand Piano. I saw that the Hosts were beside the Grand Piano, waiting for Tamaki to start. I glanced to my side to see a chair next to the doorway, a Violin placed neatly on it, along with a note. I grabbed the Violin, Bow, and note to see French Writing Written on it. I smiled, knowing the song from anywhere. I glanced towards Tamaki and the others to see his fingers beginning to hit the keys of the Piano.

I was in a trance when listening, and so, at the 36 second mark, I started playing along with him.

3rd Person's POV

Heads snapped towards the direction of the sound of the Violin playing, only to see Tomoki Suoh, slowly walking towards them while playing, her eyes closed as she moved with the music. Tamaki smiled to himself, watching from the corner of his eye. Once it reached the 1 minute mark, Tomoki stopped, now standing right next to her older brother. Others around them were in awe at them playing together in such harmony. At this moment, of them playing together, you could feel the unspeakable bond they hold with one another. One of the guests that was visiting the Host Club, starting recording the duo on her phone, wanting to treasure this memory forever. Hikaru was shocked, feeling as if the song those two were playing, held so much more than anyone could ever imagine. Kaoru smiled softly in Tomoki's direction, taking in her heaven like features when she was playing. She seemed at peace, like she was the only one standing in the room. At the 2:20 Mark, Tomoki stopped playing, letting her brother have his own little solo. Then, when he started to speed up again, only slightly, Tomoki began playing again, letting the music envelop around her. Close to the 3:00 Minute Mark, it seemed as if the room was circling around them, Roses flowing around them in a delicate dance. Tomoki stopped her playing, waiting for her mark to start playing again. Tomoki couldn't help but smile to herself, which caught everyone off guard. She took a deep breath before playing at the 3:50 Mark. She let her body move to the soft rhythm of the music, her dress flowing as she did so. Her long blonde hair shimmering in the light coming from the window. Tomoki stopped playing once again at the 4:51 Mark. Letting Tamaki take the stage by storm, a powerful but delicate storm. Soon, the song ended leaving everyone around them in shock, mesmerized by their music. Tomoki opened her eyes, and instead of them being cold and distant, Kaoru noted that they seemed more loveable and inviting. Just because of this one performance that she did with her role model. Cheers erupted from the crowd, Tamaki standing and bowing to them while Tomoki curtsied, trying to catch her breath. For once, she put emotion into her music, and so, that's what made it better. She didn't just play by the notes and chords, she played by what she was feeling, the feeling of bewilderment coursing through her veins. The crowd around them instantly ran up to them, praising them for their wonderful playing. Tamaki glanced down at his little sister, smiling once he saw the look on her face, her cheeks were slightly tinted pink from all of the praise she was getting, but there was a slight smile on her face, her eyes loving and caring. The guest who was recording them on her phone, stopped recording, saving the video before running up them, giggling happily to herself. Kyoya smiled, for once not writing down in his book, but watching his best friend smile at Tomoki. Haruki and the twins pushed through the crowd, Haruhi enveloping Tomoki in a hug

"That was amazing!" Haruhi stated, smiling widely

"I never knew you could actually play like that!" Kaoru stated, Hikaru nodding in agreement, deciding it was time for him to apologize for the other day

"Hey, Tomoki, I want to apologize-"

"No, I should be the one apologizing, I have treated all of you like trash when in reality, all of us are equal. I am deeply sorry for my behavior lately." Tomoki caught him off, bowing to him in apology

"Wow, so you do have a heart." Hikaru commented having her glare at him

"Don't make me hit you with my Bow." Tomoki threatened, waving her Bow at him

"Yeah, careful Hikaru, she does have a weapon on her.." Kaoru whispered to his twin, remembering how she almost stabbed him with a pocket knife earlier

"Huh? Oh um, okay?" Hikaru, confused for a second then realizes that she may have a concealed weapon on her for all he knows

"You guys were awesome, Tomo-Chan and Tama-Chan!" Honey stated, running up to them in excitement

"Yeah."

"Hmm, this may make our business sky rocket if you two would performance every week..." Kyoya thought to himself outloud, smirking to himself in deep wonder.

(Later that day... In the Tonnerre Mansion)

Classical Music filled the Tonnerre Mansion, from the loud speakers from a Pineapple Laptop that had a Tab Open for YouTube. The video of Tomoki and Tamaki Suoh's Performance was sent to Alphonse from a friend of his in Japan, giving Alphonse a face to the name of his fiance. Alphonse watched as Tomoki danced with the music elegantly while still playing her Violin, making him smirk

"So Tomoki Suoh, it seems to me that not only are you a heiress to your father's company, but a music lover as well... Very interesting." Alphonse stated to himself, eyes glimmering with mischief.

To Be continued

Heyo! So I decided to make another chapter, I better one in fact which I almost lost all of it... Okay, I was clicking on the SpellChecking System (Because I'm lazy as heck) and my browser shut itself off... I ALMOST LOST THE WHOLE CHAPTER! THE CHAPTER I'M REALLY PROUD OF! My Mom asked me what was wrong because I screamed when it did that to me, thinking that I lost all of my work. Thank the Quotev Gods that I didn't when I re-loaded the page *Sighs in relief* Anyways, this chapter shows that Tomoki's ice encased heart is slowly chipping away because of this performance, she even apologized to Hikaru! But, then there is Alphonse at the end of the chapter watching the video of Tamaki and Tomoki playing together, this means that he knows more about Tomoki than Tomoki knows about Alphonse himself! Meaning that Alphonse has the upper hand here. Which is very frightening indeed. Also, if you guys are wondering as to why I made cues for Tomoki and Tamaki during the song is because, it's more understandable when reading it, because before when I did this sort of thing, people would get SO confused as to what is going on during the song. That is why I did cues or Marks you could call them. Now, I'm gonna try and get back into doing the Comment Goal for every chapter thing, let's hope I stick with it this time! So the Comment Goal for this chapter will be 7+ Comments for the next chapter! Thank you all for reading and see you all later! -Golden
