So this was a plot bunny I adopted in the orphanage of the Ouran High School Fanfiction Club (Well, THAT was a mouth full)! This idea was courtesy of WhyNot-ForGot. I hope I've written this to your expectations and that you enjoy.

It was the last day of school before spring break, and more importantly, it was the last club meeting for Ouran High School's Host Club. It was almost time for the ladies to depart for vacation and for the club to close up shop, or department. The theme for that day had been police officers again, complete with props and a prison backdrop. Haruhi cleared her table of china and silverware, trying not to listen to Tamaki and the twins argue over vacation plans. Kyoya stood near the door, finishing a few calculations and scribbling a few notes. Everything seemed quite fine, save for Hunny and Mori's table.

The new plates of cake had been immediately cleared once being set in front of Hunny. Mori watched, his face unchanged, as his cousin devoured his last half of cake.

"Mitsukuni," Mori said, monotonously, "you'll give yourself a stomach ache."

A tear dripped onto his empty dish, "T-Takashi, I don't want to leave for vacation." His bright brown eyes glistened in the light. Some of the customers took notice, especially the Hunny fans.

"That's not it," Mori replied, knowingly. Hunny stared at him, the upset clear. He couldn't lie to him, not Mori.

"F-fine, it's something different . . ." Hunny tried to wipe his face, his fans holding their breaths in anticipation. Kyoya took notice when a few girls remained in the clubroom.

"It's . . . it's . . ." the eyes of each fan widened. What could possibly upset Hunny?

"It's . . . it's . . .it's Haru-chan!"

Haruhi almost dropped her tray and stared at Hunny in confusion.

"What on earth?" thought Haruhi, seeing Tamaki take notice from the corner of her eye.

Hunny began to sob, "We're all going to be away for vacation, and poor Haru-chan will be all alone at his house and he'll be so lonely!"

The Hunny fans all began to sob with him in support as Haruhi's face looked as if it had just been smacked with a frying pan. Tamaki held on to her, almost to tears himself.

"Oh, Haruhi! It's the cruel, cruel truth! Are you sure you wouldn't like to spend the break with Daddy?"

Tamaki let out a shriek as Haruhi pinched his hand, "Hunny-senpai, you don't have to worry about me. The long break will give me plenty of time to study—"

Hunny proceeded to wail louder, and the twins joined in her utter torment.

"MAKE IT STOP!" cried Hikaru who held on to his brother.

"PLEASE, HUNNY-SENPAI!" cried Kaoru, "HE'LL SURVIVE!"

On this note, Tamaki tackled the two, "HOW DARE YOU SAY SUCH A THING ABOUT MY DAUGHTER! HOW RUDE! I OUGHTA—"

Haruhi watched Hunny cry, almost catching a twinkle in his eye.

"Takashi," Hunny said, tugging at Mori's arm, "W-would you, sniff, sniff, keep Haru-chan company while we're away?"

At this point, even Mori had an air of confusion on his face. Either way, he couldn't stand to leave Hunny upset for much longer.

He nodded, "Hm."

Haruhi almost fell on her face in shock.

"What!?" she cried at Mori as she stomped over, "I'm sorry Mori-senpai, but you cannot just decide that on impulse! Hunny, I'll be fine!"

"NO, HARU-CHAN! NO!"

"Hunny! Stop grabbing my arm!"

After ushering the sobbing Hunny fans out of the clubroom, Kyoya wandered over pulling something out of his pocket.

"PLEASE HARU-CHAN! DON'T BE LONELY!"

"Ah!?"

"Hunny! Don't cry anymore!"

"WAAAAHH!"

"M-Mitsukuni!?"

"Hunny! Stop—"

—Clink!

All the noise stopped, and everyone looked down at the handcuffs linking Haruhi and Mori together.

"Kyo-Kyoya?" Haruhi began to ask, unsure of what to make of the current situation.

Mori stared as Hunny began to wipe the cake crumbs off his lips.

"Are you happy, Hunny-senpai?" Kyoya asked rather calmly, "Neither of them will be alone this spring break. You don't have to worry anymore."

Hunny smiled, "YAY! Thanks Kyo-chan!"

With that, he found Usa-chan and ran from the clubroom in giggles, leaving everyone unaware of the evil glint in his eye.

Tamaki's mouth almost hit the floor, "WHAT!? YOU CAN'T LEAVE THEM THIS WAY!" he cried before trying to tug at the chains between the still frozen and astonished two, "THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE! WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE LINKED HARUHI TO ME?? SHE'D BE SAFER AND—"

"Are you trying to say that Mori is incapable of caring for Haruhi?" said Kyoya coolly, "Your own senpai?"

Mori grunted, and Tamaki retreated, "S-sorry Mori, I didn't mean…"

"Hey," Hikaru intervened, "Why handcuffs?"

"Yeah," said Kaoru, "Isn't that kind of rash?"

"Not to mention kinky."

Tamaki proceeded to beat the twins as Kyoya explained.

"It was the only thing that would reassure Hunny's impatience. Mori's trustable and it's not like either of them have boundaries, right?"

Kyoya looked around and spotted Mori, distraught, leaving the clubroom lightly dragging the hollow corpse that was Haruhi.
