Roe's p.o.v.

I was working the counter again as customers came through, finishing my last day up at the Spot before I go to Japan with Tamaki for his friends wedding. It was a busy day, and my heart was so full after Tamaki's confession. It was all I could think about. I looked up as the bell rang when he entered.

"Hey handsome what can I get ya?", I say when he comes to the counter giving him a flirty smirk.

"A Latte, a red velvet cupcake, and a kiss from my girlfriend.", he says pulling out a single rose from behind his back holding it to me as I blush deeply.

"Go on Roe, kiss the poor boy and put him out of his misery.", My Aunt Ellie says as he smirks before we both lean in for a chaste kiss over the counter.

"Well I'll put this in water then I'll get your treats.", I say ringing him up.

I find a large cup for my rose and put water in in then make my boyfriend's latte and grab his cupcake putting it on a plate since he usually sits at a table nearby when he comes in so we can talk in between customers.

The bell rings again, as Tamaki gets ready to sit and in enters a cocky blue eyed blond I haven't seen in years.

"Hello Roe, I heard a rumor you worked in a dump like this.", he says.

"Hello Matt, is there something I can get you?", I say politely all emotion removed from my voice and face.

"No just wanted to see what the girl I dated in high school amounted to. Looks like things have gone down hill since you left me.", he says.

"That depends on your definition of downhill.", I say as Tamaki watches us thoughtfully.

"Your poor barely scraping by raising someone else's brat.", he says.

"That brat is my daughter.", I say coldly.

"And a slut like you doesn't even know the daddy.", he says.

"The only thing I have to regret Matt is dating you, cause your the one who gave me the drugged cola.", I say "An the video of what you creeps did with me when I couldn't fight back was posted from your YouTube account."

"You can't prove anything, and if you'd of gotten the abortion like I told ya, we could still be together.", he says.

"Matt, I only went out with you cause my mom insisted, I don't want anything to do with you ever again.", I say glaring and before I know it his fist connects with my mouth.

"Shut it you slut!", he says only to have Tamaki rush to my side and help me up.

"Rose are you ok?", he says looking at my face "How dare you hit a lady!" as he pulls me behind him protectively.

"Yea, I'll be alright.", I say "Don't worry."

"Matt I won't have you harassing my niece, now get out or I'll call the cops, the security video is already plenty.", my aunt says as Tamaki and I glare at him.

"And it's Roselia to you, you lost the right to call me Roe.", I say facing him.

"I'll come visit everyday Roe, till your mine again.", he says.

"Then I'll come everyday too, to see you keep your hands off her and treat her with respect.", Tamaki says surprising him, "Now do as the owner asked and get out, you've caused enough trouble"

Matt stomps out, as Tamaki inspects my lip again.

"I'm sorry, I should of protected you.", he says.

"You have nothing to be sorry for, you had no way to know he'd hit me.", I say.

"Tamaki, how about you take Roe in the back and clean up her lip.", my aunt says.

"Yes Madam.", he says leaning me in the back as I get out the first aid kit so he can clean up my lip while I sit on the counter.

"Does it look bad?", I ask.

"You could never look bad princess.", he says and "I mean what I said."

"Well then next weeks an easy week, we'll be in Japan.", I say as he hands me the ice pack.

"I'll pick you and Ariel up later in my car, just pack some casual stuff, I have friends providing dresses for the dress up occasions.", he says.

"Should be fun, but I'm nervous. I've never left the country and my Japanese needs lots of work.", I say.

"All my friends speak English pretty good, and the bride is from America. So it'll be fine.", he says.

Tamaki's p.o.v.

I was knocking on Rose's door in the morning, when she opened it smiling. She looked so cute with her hair up in a pony tail and wearing Cowboys Football Jersey and jeans.

"Hey Tamaki, come on in.", she says as Ariel comes barreling at me.

"Going bye bye with Tama.", she shouts as I scoop her up as she hugs me and kisses my lips and hugs me like she does Roe. On the couch sat two backpacks and two average size suitcases.

"Are those all your bags?", I say.

"Yup.", Rose says happily then pecks me on the lips.

"Well let me help you take them down to the car.", I say with Ariel on my hip as I sling a backpack and grab one of the suitcases while Roe grabs the other two and her purse.

We head down to the car and my driver takes the bags loading them as we load Ariel into her car seat. My head maid in Japan was overjoyed at the idea that Rose and Ariel were visiting and got a pair of side by side guest rooms all ready for them. And she set to child proofing the mansion so Roe doesn't have to worry.

We ride the car until we reach the airport where my private jet is waiting.

"Which gate Tamaki?", Rose says as my guy loads the bags on a cart while I pick up Ariel.

"This way of course my princess.", I say as we ride a electric cart to where the private jet is waiting.

"Wow a private jet!", Rose says excitedly making me smile as her excitement. I lead her up inside and her and Ariel's eyes both have that look up childish awe. "This is so cool."

"I'm glad you like it.", I say happily since this is one of the rare times she's seen an obvious sign that I'm rich.

Eventually we buckle in for take off, and soon we're airborne.

Ariel falls asleep after a few as I put a movie in for me and Rose who leans her head on my shoulder and cuddles cutely against me while I wrap an arm around her.

Eventually she drifts to sleep as well, and I have to admit she sleeps adorably too. And she always smells like lilacs. she stretches out her head in my lap as I play with her now down hair, as we fly. Ariel lays on the other side snuggled up against me clinging to my teddy bear contently.

And suddenly I realize this is where I belong with them. My two girls, I want to be Ariel's daddy, someone who can hold her and kiss her goodnight every night and chase the boys away from her. She may not be my child by birth but she was mine in my heart.

And her lovely mother, and her love of fun and adventure, and kind natured, I loved her more each day, and want her by my side every morning.

I want to take care of her and help her reach her goals or dreams of owning that little café someday. And hey she can run a café anywhere. So perhaps if she likes Japan, she'll marry me, and then I can adopt Ariel as my own child.

That Matt guy didn't know what he had. I guess Rose's saying about some ones trash being someone else's treasure is true.

And I'll do everything in my power to see that he never hurts her again.

Starting with having Kyoya research him for dirt.

I'm gonna protect what's mine and Rose, and Ariel are mine now.

As I'm deep in thought, Rose stirs and wakes up, slowly.

"Oh wow, you smell good you know that?", she says sleepily moving upright as I chuckle despite my blush.

"You know your cute when you sleep.", I say and she blushes.

"Thanks, she says doing a cute little cat stretch.

"I think Ariel's claimed your bear.", she says.

"At least your not making fun of my bear.", I say.

"Awe I think it's sweet you still have your old teddy bear.", she says yawning.

"Are you hungry?", I ask.

"A little.", she says as I push the button on the ceiling.

"Anything you'd like?", I ask.

"I'll leave it up to you, when in Rome, they say.", she says "Besides I trust you."

"I'm glad to hear that.", I say just ordering us some fruit chopped up in case Ariel wakes up, and some sandwiches.

"You know your too comfy, I feel all safe and warm cuddled with you.", she says.

I have to admit, sleepy Rose is good for my ego, but boy does she speed up my heart rate,

While sleepy Ariel makes my heart melt at the cuteness of the little girl I want to call my daughter.

I think Ariel could give Honey a run for his money with her cuteness.

We eat together chatting quietly, and when Ariel wakes she eats happily as well. The rest of the flight goes pleasantly and we arrive at the airport without a hitch, where my father is waiting in the limo when the three up us get in.

"Father, this lovely lady is my girlfriend Roselia Stevens, and her daughter Ariel.", I say "And Roselia and Ariel, this is my father Yuzuru Suoh.", I say.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet the lovely maidens my son talks of so highly.", he says taking Roselia's hand and kissing it.

"Please Mr. Suoh call me Roe, Roselia is a little to formal.", she says smiling as Ariel looks at him in awe.

"Hello little Ariel, I'm Tamaki's dad.", he says to the little girl "but while your here you can call me Obaasan.", he says as she tilts her head.

"Obasan?", she says.

"What a smart little girl.", he says as we ride to the mansion to settle in.

"Tama, are you sure you not a prince?", Ariel says making me and my dad chuckle.

When we arrive I help Rose and Ariel out and Carry Ariel, while the servants take our bags in and I introduce Ariel and Rose to the staff.

"I want you all to treat the lovely ladies here like princesses since they are my honored guests.", I say as Ariel smiles still holding my bear happily sitting on my hip.

I show the girls to there rooms and show them around so they can find me if they can't. We then rest up so that we can all sleep off jetlag, and Then have a nice supper together with my father, whom is also now around Ariel's finger as they talk quite a bit.

After supper we relax while Ariel plays and gets doted on some more by my dad and the staff.

"Roe, can I borrow little Ariel for a few hours.", my dad asks.

"Can I ?", Ariel asks big eyed.

"Sure, you can borrow Ariel.", Roe asks leaning on me on the couch as we go over my photos from when I was in high school.

"Awe you did pirates, you made such a cute pirate.", she says smiling making me blush when we're alone.

"Wow you looked good with out a shirt on then too." now looking at beach pictures.

"Is this Haruhi?", she asks pointing to a blond.

"No that's Kai, Haruhi's cousin from the states. She calls me big brother a lot.", I say " That's Haruhi.", I say pointing to the girl dressed like a boy."

"Do you still miss her?", Rose asks looking up at me.

"Only as a friend now, when I was in the states a pair of princesses swooped in and stole my heart from her.", I say then we kiss again.

"Are you nervous about meeting my friends tomorrow?", I ask.

"A little, but there your friends so I can only assume there a great bunch, cause your so great.", she say brushing the tip of my nose with her fingertip then gives me a quick peck.

"You have nothing to worry about, I'm sure they'll love you almost as much as I do.", I say as she snuggles closer making me mush again.
