Everything. Everything was coming back. Quickly and painfully. Six year old Kyoya crying on the bench; the first time we met. Growing up together. Meeting the hosts. Everything. It feels like my skull is being split open with a dull hatchet. 

I faintly realize I fell through the hedge and onto the grassy garden. Kyoya's voice was shouting my name, but it was hazy as my entire body was focused on the pain. I clutch my head and curl up while holding back a scream of pain. I was crying for sure. Kyoya gingerly picks me up and quickly carries me to the house, into some room, and onto a bed. 

Me acting like a wolf as Kyoya's pet. Me revealing myself when Kyoya tried to give me a bath. Me calling him Master for ages. Him forgetting me in the music room my first day of school. Him getting mad at about the cream puffs. Him restoring my old home. The willow tree. The cliff. The cave. The cookie dough. Okinawa and the beach. Kyoya.

The lab.

I involuntarily shudder. The pain isn't so bad now but I'm shaking and hyperventilating, remembering everything vividly.

The tattoo, the serum, Ario, 0.1, Ario making me believe Kyoya was the bad guy..

At this thought I break down, crying loudly.

"Onaji?" Kyoya asks tentatively, and I feel the bed shift as he sits down next to me. "Are you alright?"

"I-i-i r-remember e-everything." I stutter out, between the tears. "A-and the p-pain was unbearable.."

Kyoya shushes me soothingly, and rubs my back. "Do you need anything? Ibuprofen, water?"

I just shake my head, curling up more and trying to calm myself down. Sniffling continuously and still slightly shaking, I force myself to stop crying and sit up. Kyoya looks at me with concern.

"I'm sorry." I whisper, moving closer to him and grabbing his land. I look into his ebony eyes, wondering how I could ever have seen them as something to fear. "I'm sorry I didn't remember, and that I blamed you. It was Ario, he told me all of these things and after you didn't come right away he got to my head and-" I begin to ramble but Kyoya cuts me off, cupping my face with his hands.

"It's okay Onaji. You're okay. I would never stop loving you, and I would've never stopped searching until I found you and saved you." He says gently and kisses my forehead. I smile weakly, a few tears falling down my cheeks.

"C-can you call the guys? I-i wanna see everyone."  I ask and Kyoya nods, and stands up. "A-and some ibuprofen too.." I say sheepishly and he chuckles slightly.

"Of course my dear." And he exits the room to get the medicine and call Tamaki and the others. 

I gently rub my temples, the pain a dull headache now. I can't help but smile at finally remembering everything. Kyoya. My master. My love. I feel all giddy. Soon, Kyoya comes back with medication which I take gratefully.

"Everyone's on their way, they'll be here in less than twenty minutes." Kyoya says and sits down next to me again. 

I smile and nod, snuggling into him. "I'm sorry I deluded myself into thinking I was dating Hikaru.."

"Onaji it's okay, really. Though I am curious, was it because of what happened in Okinawa?"

".. Yea.. it was only part of the game, but we did kiss." I say hesitantly, looking down at my lap. "I promise nothing serious, I told him my love is for you."  I felt Kyoya's body tense when I admitted Hikaru and I kissed, but he relaxes again and puts his arm around me.

"I'm not mad. I'm just happy you aren't scared of me anymore." He says earnestly and kisses my temple. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to do that. What I want to do, and have been wanting to ever since you woke up from your coma, is kiss you." Kyoya smiles at me with a hint of a smirk as I look up at him with a blush. "May I?" Smiling with a faint blush I nod and he places a subtle kiss on my lips. I kiss back, almost eagerly, missing him so much.

After what seems like a very short time, there's a quiet cough, and Kyoya and I pull apart. The hosts, Niko, Kisumi, and Papa were all standing in the doorway. Instantly my face flares up in red as Kyoya smirks, pushing up his glasses.

"So uh.. she really remembers everything?" Hikaru asks awkwardly and I blush more if possible.

"It seems so." Kisumi says accusingly, and I can see him glare at Kyoya.

"Did it hurt?" Niko asks and I nod.

"I wanted to scream."

"So you remember you're dating Kyoya-Senpai now?" Haruhi asks and I nod, moving to stand up. 

Kyoya instantly comes to my side to help me if I need support. We all walk out of Kyoya's bedroom and walk down the hall to the living room. Everyone settles down on the couches and the floor.

"So why'd you call us all together Ji-Chan?" Huni asks cutely, hugging Usa-Chan.

"Well.. mostly to apologize to all of you.. it must've been awkward and hard for you to act the same around me when I didn't remember Kyoya." I say softly, blushing with slight embarrassment.

"Onaji that wasn't your fault." Papa says gently. He was sitting next to me on the couch.

"Yea if anyone's to blame it's the cop who hit you." Kisumi says and you could hear the faint growl in his voice. "We wouldn't know what damage was done until you woke up."

"Yea, the doctor said that," "You may not ever regain your memories." Hikaru and Kaoru say, grinning at me. Looking at Hikaru, I notice his grin doesn't truly match his brother's. 

"I say we all go out for dinner to celebrate~!" Tamaki declares, standing up.

"Hey, yea that's a good idea~ I'm really hungry." Niko whines childishly, and most of us chuckle or laugh. Everyone starts getting up and exiting the room and Kyoya offers his hand to me.

"Go ahead, I wanna talk to Hikaru really quick. We'll catch up with you." I smile and he gives me a faltering look. I giggle slightly, standing up and hugging him tightly. "I love you, Master. Now get out." I whisper to him, kissing his cheek as he chuckles slightly.

I stand up and grab Hikaru's arm before he exits with Kaoru. Waiting until everyone's left I look up at him. "I'm sorry.."

"Ahh don't apologize Ona, you'll only make it worse." Hikaru says awkwardly, avoiding my eyes as he looks at the floor, rubbing the back of his neck.

I can't help but laugh a little. "You like me, don't you." 

He blushes and rolls his eyes in that sarcastic way of his. "Really?"

"Hikaru I love you too, not as a friend, but as family. And, if it makes you feel any better, I probably would've fallen for you too if I hadn't known Kyoya for so long." I smile softly. "'Cause he can be a little intimidating."

Him and I both laugh at this and he pulls me into a tight bear hug. "I love you Onaji."

I smile into his shirt. "I love you too~" Letting go, we walk outside to the others who were waiting.

"Just so you know, I'm never going to forget the closet." he says nonchalantly as we get outside, and Kyoya glares at him.

I laugh and climb into the limo with everyone. 

Few Days Later

It's my first day back in school with my memories and I can't stop smiling. Waiting impatiently for the school day to be done with I run to Music Room #3 just to give Kyoya a kiss and tell him I'm going down to the rose maze.

He tells me to be careful as I discard the school uniform and run back out. I wanna be outside in the fresh air. After getting all of my memories back, being inside for too long makes me think of the lab. Often, I convince Kyoya to let me sleep outside in the garden now. 

Humming a little ditty to myself, I walk into the maze. Finding my way to the center I sit down on a stone bench and look at the water fountain spewing crystal clear water. I'd only been relaxing for about fifteen minutes when I hear people walking in the maze. Yuyuka, Yuuri, and Yuno emerge out of the maze, all with glares set on their faces.

"After breaking Kyoya-Senpai's heart for months, you just start loving him again?" Yuno asks with disgust and I raise an eyebrow.

"For your information, you cream puff, I was in a coma for almost four months." I state simply and she glares evilly.

"Even when you came back to school, you avoided him like the plague." Yuyuka says to me, and the three girls all move in closer.

"You three do know I'm dating him. Don't you?" I ask, standing up as they close in. There's no way in hell am I letting them get away with what they did last time.

"Really? We thought it was just a rumor." Yuno scoffs, looking at me.

"Yea, we never thought Kyoya would go out with someone.. like you." Yuuri says, obviously trying to offend me.

I sigh heavily, "Girls if you're gonna beat me up, get it over with. And just so you know, I'm fighting back today because I'm done with your bullshit." The girls all glare and Yuuri and Yuyuka move to grab my arms. I slip out from under their grasp so I'm behind them. "Punch me I dare you."

Yuno huffs in frustration and steps forward, throwing a punch at my face. I let her make contact and my head turns to the side from the force. I gotta make sure there's evidence y'know.

"I've changed you cream puffs." I mumble softly and grab Yuno's fist as she tries to punch me again. Twisting her arm I throw her forward. Yuuri and Yuyuka advance and I crouch down, kicking out my leg to trip them both. Standing back up quickly, I punch Yuno in the stomach making her double over in pain.

Yuuri attempts to grab me from behind and I dodge, turning to face her. "Agh you're so dead!" She screams and pushes me backwards into Yuyuka, who pushes me to the ground. Deciding to play along, I let all three of them kick me in the stomach, face, and back. 0.1 made me stronger. Pushing myself to a standing position, I in turn punch all three girls in the face, fully knocking over Yuyuka. I kick her for good measure. Finally Yuno and Yuuri back off, tears in their eyes.

"We-we're telling Kyoya!" Yuno shouts, and runs off with the others.

"Not if I get there first!" I shout after them and run. Catching up to the girls, I trip Yuuri and pull Yuno back by her long ponytail. Yuyuka was already lagging behind. Lunging ahead of them, I burst out of the maze and run into the school, sprinting upstairs.

Throwing open the doors to Music Room #3 I run in. Luckily, hosting is already finished, so only the guys were left. "Master!" I shout, panting.

"Onaji! What happened?" Kyoya asks in worry, and I realize I probably have a bloody lip and maybe a gash on my forehead.

"I have.. proof.." I pant, "the cream puffs.. beat me up again." 

"You mean those three girls?" Tamaki questions and I nod. 

Suddenly, said cream puffs run into the room, bawling. "Kyoya-Senpai, Tamaki-Senpai! Onaji-San beat us up!" Yuno shouts in distress.

I noticed Kyoya's demeanor change even before the cream puffs ran in. He was frowning, and his glasses had a sharp glare on them. 

"Ne, Ji-Chan, did you beat them up too?" Huni asks, noticing their bruised faces.

I nod, "I warned them I'd fight back."

"That's it, I'm calling my father." Tamaki stands up, pulling out his phone.

"Th-the chairman?" Yuuri stutters, shocked.

"W-we'll get kicked out!" Yuyuka panics, and I can't help but grin.

"It's what all three of you deserve." Kyoya says, deathly sweet. "You ladies have done quite enough damage to the host club, and to my girlfriend." He says protectively, walking over and putting an arm around me. "I think it best if you three were expelled for what you've so clearly done."

"Mori-Senpai, Huni-Senpai, would you please escort these ladies to the office? My father and the principal is there waiting for them." Tamaki says cooly, and the cream puffs are lead out of the room. 

I jump with joy, fist pumping the air. "About time!" 

"Ona-Senpai, let Kyoya-Senpai patch you up. Those cuts look like they hurt." Haruhi says with concern.

"Yea, are you alright?" The twins ask and I wave it off.

"I've been through worse, I barely feel the pain. I just needed proof I was attacking defensively." I grin.

"Either way my dear, let me patch you up." Kyoya says and takes my hand in his, walking to the kitchen where a first aid kit is kept. Sighing, I let him without complaint. I barely wince as he bandages the cut on my forehead and examines the bruises on my stomach and back. While lowering my shirt, Kyoya speaks.

"So my father has been contacting some of the best lawyers our family owns." He starts, and I cock my head in curiosity. "Him and I, and my older siblings, are arranging to get protection laws passed to protect you and Kisumi."

My eyes widen, surprised. "Really? Your father would do that for me?" 

"Well, it took a bit of convincing, but after the whole lab incident I think he was moved to take action." Kyoya smiles softly. "So, hopefully sooner than later, Inugamis and magical species alike will be under strict safety protection laws. Therefore, no hunting and no labs. Your kind will be free."

I smile widely, hugging him tightly and planting a kiss on his lips. I love this man so much.
