"I thought you were-" His throat had gone tight and he had no will to finish his sentence, his hands still unsure of where they should lay as they ran from Tamaki's shoulders, and then finally his back where Kyouya's fingers balled into fabric. Now, he blinked back the sting in his eyes, lifting his head to the sky in hopes that the tears brewing there would work their way back.
Mentally he noted how pathetic this must look, but it had been as if Tamaki had been delivered from the dead and he was sure any man, any man having suffered from jet lag, exhaustion, and trying to cope with the fact that an entire city had been razed and here they were stranded, would have had far less control than he'd been displaying.

Kyouya was going to miss school for this, Tamaki thought guiltily. It would be a bad example to set, wouldn't it? Then again, even though he had been second in class (and the superintendent's son, no less) Tamaki had been missing all this time, so he was sure he was no better of an example, then.
"I'm sorry."
To him, his voice sounded off, but he was sure it was the crying. Even when he had planned to leave with Eclair, that he was submitting himself to not see anyone again, he hadn't broken down like this. Maybe he would have, after arriving in France. It wasn't like he could wind back time and find out.
He wouldn't want to, if given the chance.

The apology was enough to send the water held back in his eyes to finally spill over the edge, dropping here and there as the droplets from from his chin. What the hell would you have to apologize to me for? It seemed as if it was wrong for him to even utter an sorry, he was alive, and an apology would only be expected had he not been ( ... )

There were a good handful of things Tamaki wanted to un-see or even un-live, for lack of better way to put it.
Tamaki sniffed, but the slight lightening of his mood was evident in his voice. "Kyouya, would you honestly expect any less of me?"
Ever since they had met, it was a constant cycle of Tamaki getting into trouble, and Kyouya getting him out of it. Sometimes it altered to having Tamaki get into worse trouble before Kyouya saved him, but the basic outline was all the same. Trouble was nearly his motto, by then.
