During the time it took to leave the ice, take off their skates, return the skates and leave for the opposite end of the park, not one word was spoken, not one glance was sought out by the other. All there were was silence. Leaving the ice rink and continuing their way to the opposite side of the park on the gravel road was too quiet for Tamaki to take. He couldn't remember the last time he had this reaction to a girl, let alone be left this long with out a single gesture as to talking or acknowledging his existence.

With his hands in his pockets and frustrated eyes burning a hole in the ground, it was easy to see that he wanted to talk about something, anything to break the ice between him and Haruhi. Being all fidgety and impatience brought lots of attention to himself form spectators and nothing from his blunt friend who seems to also be lost in a world of confusion and anger. Irritated as she looked, he didn't know how to approach the situation with out making it worse.

What did he do wrong? All he said was that he loved her. Maybe because of her slow nature at romance she misinterpret it? No that couldn't be, but what was on her mind that made her exile him from talking with her and ignorance to his actions to try to lighten the mood. What ever it was, it was making him frustrated and it showed through his cheeks that quickly started to spread on his face. Embarrassed and frustrated, the blonde started to not only loses his posture to a childish stance but walk like one as well. It was clear that he was the most bothered.

Coming up to the exit of the park, Tamaki started to act childish as well as appear as one. The thought crossed through his head that maybe he should stop and turn around and head home him self. But the gentleman inside debating the voice of a only child were arguing loud and clear in his mind. Almost like going crazy, Tamaki showed the effects of over thinking the situation. Dragging his feet, hunched over, sour look on his face and even a snotty attitude. What to do? What to do? The gate was 7 steppes in front of them. In a panic Tamaki started thinking what the others would do in this situation, although he was completely sure they didn't have feelings for Haruhi in the way he did.

3... 2... 1... gate. Decision time. Still beaming red, Tamaki tried doing the responsible thing but the only child selfishness was too strong, stopping at the gate and getting ready to turn around and walk back was the ideal plan to do. In doing so caused Haruhi to keep walking a few steps to realize that her tall escort was no longer with her.

Turning around to see Tamaki heading the opposite directing was making a conflict in her head to. What must he be thinking? She thought to her self.

The one thing they had in common was the childishness of being an only child. When you're an only child all the attention in the world is given to you, you want things for your self, even though your personality reviles it so. Deep down it feels good to have that attention, Even if you're the kind of person who puts other before yourself.

The stubbornness in Haruhi was telling her to keep walking, as the childishness was saying confront him. Lost and confused like a child the only action that she did was an impulsive grab for his jacket. Not realizing what the circumstances could occur and not properly thinking things through like a child she reached for the tail of his jacket and pulled gently.

Tamaki stopped and slowly turned his head followed with his hypnotic eyes then his body. Fully facing Haruhi, he searched her for an answer to her actions. With her head turned away and eyes showed a sign of embarrassed emotions. In this moment Tamaki would grab the hand of the maiden and continue the escorting her home hand in hand, but this was no average lady he'd entertain at the host club. This lady was still a girl that can cover up her gender by a change of clothes. Who declared that it doesn't matter on the gender and looks, what matters is the inside. With this circling around his head, Tamaki decided to play a different roll by staying silent and wait for a reaction even though it was killing him to break down and cave for her.

"What?" Tamaki managed to stop himself form continuing.

"Its Just." Haruhi started.

"No its Nothing, I'm sorry" Haruhi said while letting go of Tamaki's Jacket.

Just as Haruhi's hand released the jacket, a single snowflake fell to the ground. It was identical to the snow at Tamaki's house. As both Tamaki and Haruhi stared at the falling snow, more and more started to fall around them. Haruhi faced Tamaki again and gave a little bow.

"Thank you for walking me this far. Also for everything today"

Before Tamaki could reply Haruhi already started on her way back to her house. Walking down the path along the street, Haruhi was deep in thought again till eventually she was pelted with a snowball in the back of her head. In shock Haruhi placed a hand on the spot that was hit and slowly turned around. Seeing her hair covered in snow and shocked made Tamaki laugh.

"Sorry, I just had to do that. It was my last resort as to lightning the mood if even a little bit-"

Before Tamaki could finish another snowball was pelted at him in return for the sneak attack.

"What was that Sempai? I can't hear you when your eating snow." Haruhi said with a laugh.

"Oi! That wasn't fair, I was trying to break the ice here!" Tamaki yelled.

"You already did that!" Haruhi yelled back while throwing another snowball then running away.

"I guess I did." Tamaki thought to himself with a smile and started after Haruhi.

While chasing after each other through the streets throwing balls of snow at each other, they didn't realize it started to snow on them. Laughs, screams and out of breath yells echoed through the streets ad the two played. Running around, falling and slipping everywhere like children do drew them closer.

Now on Haruhi's street, she hid behind a wall in the falling snow trying to conceal her from being found. Covering her mouth to smother her breath form being seen, Tamaki played into her trap by running past her. Smiling behind her hands, Haruhi bend down to gather snow and mold it into a ball while Tamaki who was about 6 meters away stood in search. Slowly coming up behind him Haruhi reached up just as Tamaki was turning around. As Haruhi slammed the ball of snow on top of Tamaki's head, he also tried to defend himself by grabbing Haruhi's waist and pulling her close to him. While they were both concentration on attach and defending, their legs once again were tangled together causing them and slip on the fresh fallen snow and fall to the snow banks.

Haruhi landed on top of Tamaki who was now lying in a pile of snow.

"We make a unusual couple don't we?" Tamaki laughed as he looked up to see a curious girl looking down at him.

"What?" he asked.

Haruhi slid off of Tamaki and lay on her hip beside him.

"Its just weird that you consider us a couple? Were friends aren't we?" Haruhi asked with a straight face.

With this answer, words were running through Tamaki's head. Many being frustrated and confused also with the word blunt and oblivious popping up many times created a weird moment.

"Why would you say that?" Haruhi asked curiously.

Stopping his brain storming of words Tamaki looked up curiously.

"Hu?"

"When you said you loved me. Why would you say that?" Haruhi said with another straight face.

"Because you should know how I feel." Tamaki said while blushing.

It was known that Haruhi hasn't hade an eye for romances and was oblivious. So instead of romancing her, Tamaki decided to just say it to her. But its obvious that he'll have to be craftier.

Sitting up again Haruhi placed a hand on his arm and pulled gently. Catching his attention Tamaki turned his purple eyes towards her. Hair drenched and face pale the cold was obviously getting to her.

"I think I Love you too."

"What?" Tamaki said with confusion at her reply.

As Haruhi sat up as well, she stared into his eyes oddly. He could read that he was confused about something and gave an expression for her to let it be known.

"I mean, this feeling I have when I'm with you, its love right? My dad once said that when you find someone that you want to spend all your time with, it's called love and you should never let them go. When they leave and it feels like your heart is searching for it's self over again, or when they are gone and you feel like you will never feel like that ever again, Its called love. Is this what I'm feeling for you?" Haruhi asked curiously.

"I cant tell you what your feeling. Only you will know Haruhi." Tamaki let out gently.

As the snow fell on them quietly and gracefully, the two stayed completely quiet to each other. Each in their own world's form the one they were in now. Hearing the city bell striking 12 and the music dancing through the streets, broke Tamaki and Haruhi out of their trans like stated.

"I think it is. I hope it is." Haruhi smiled at the sky.

This made Tamaki smile softly to himself, the fact that she was so oblivious to love but is positive that its what she is feeling for him was what made him love her so. How she could look at the situation with such innocence and not let the issues of today decide her judgment. Awakening love was what others called it the day the host club found out she was actual a girl hidden form the natural ways of life.

Standing back to his feet he haled a hand out and offered it to Haruhi. She accepted it and was helped up out of the snow. As the two stood there with the falling snow, they didn't take their eyes off of each other, refusing to let their hands go, on a one tracked mind they both intertwined their fingers together lacing them through each other.

Refusing to look away from one another Haruhi let out softly, "your wish came true. You're walking in snow."

"I haven't noticed" Tamaki said while breaking their eye contact and looking at the falling snow.

Haruhi pulled a little bit to motion to continue walking another few steps till they were at her apartment complex. Still hand in hand, Haruhi opened the gate and walked up the stairs. Tamaki's Hand followed Haruhi's but his legs didn't. Becoming harder to keep in touch their hands finally slipped apart. As their hands took their positions at their sides, Haruhi turned and looked back at the Snow covered blonde at the bottom of the stairs.

Turning around and walking back down the stairs till she was a head bigger then Tamaki she reached out for him. Walking closer to her, Tamaki wrapped his arms round her waist as she wrapped hers around his neck. Embracing each other and feeding off their warmth that their bodies were giving off. They stood there for a moment. Becoming intertwined with each other and oblivious to everything around them. Finally separating from each other Haruhi brushed off snow that was still in the damp blonde hair. While smiling Tamaki garbed one of Haruhi's hands and gently kissed it.

"Good night." He smiled while taking his leave for the gates.

"Wait!" Haruhi said suddenly.

Running down the stairs and over to Tamaki, Haruhi quickly gripped onto the base of Tamaki's arms and proper her self on her tiptoes. She took a quick breath then closed her eyes when their lips touched. Tamaki still wide eyes at the fact that Haruhi would even consider doing such a thing, that before he could enjoy the moment Haruhi was already racing up the stairs.

"Good Night!" Haruhi waved back at her front door.

With a gentle smile Tamaki waited till Haruhi was in side before he too took off for home.

For the rest of the Holiday Tamaki and Haruhi never spoke to each other. On the night before school would start they met up and both agreed that it would be best if nobody knew about their relationship and found it to be a way of protection.

"Haruhi! How was your vacation do anything interesting?" the twins said with such joyfulness to see their friend.

"Well I got to spend some time with my family and get to see the winter festival in the park." Haruhi replied

"Tamaki, you left awfully early. Hopefully your silly dream to walk in snow was filled?" Kyoya asked with such Emotionless words to state his opinion on the idea.

"Awe, mother that's harsh. Its such a romantic wish too bad you weren't here with me." Tamaki joked.

"Oi! My lord. Did you not realize Haruhi was in town as well?" the twins asked persistently.

Tamaki and Haruhi both looked at each other and smiled.

"I guess we walked past each other. In the moment, I guess you really do lose track of time" Tamaki smiled.

End.

OOC views:

Despite me trying too hard to keep my Characters in well 'Character' you will have to just follow through with the story, were not going to have them in perfect Character, so get over it! Not to be rude but I guess I made them a bit OOC because everyone has days where they're not them selves, and in some/most of my stories they're rather in complete character or out... So please while reading my stories keep in mind this. Its more enjoyable if you trust the author with the vision they're trying to show you. I hear all too often that my characters are OOC but that's what makes the story a story, the fact that they can be OOC and still have people Laugh, Cry and get inspired to do what the author just did. Please, leave spelling/grammar mistakes and "so-and-so was OOC" out of the comments, its annoying and in most cases you have to learn not to be so hard up. The only person that can criticize the OOC is reserved for the Character Creator (Keep that in mind) lets keep the love for the series real, and not make it a debate.
