Summary
To be in love in general is to accept that your sanity has betrayed you. You can lose a lot in life, after all. Your life, your mind, your– dubiously intact– innocence. The worst kind of loss though is the acceptance that you are not special. You, like everyone else in this terrible, mortifying love story, are a loser. Nothing more, nothing less.
Kaoru spends a year becoming something entirely beneath him: a teenager with a crush.

Summary
Akito is, once again, engaged to be married and time is ticking on Kyoya's time as a bachelor. So the former Ouran Host Club hatch a plan: a matchmaking game. The aim of the game? To give Kyoya the freedom to choose his own bride on merit and personal benefit before his father can do it for him.
With Kyoya’s (reluctant) agreement, Kaoru’s scheming, and a list of eligible bachelorettes from the Hitachiin client list, it’s set to be the scheme of the century.
That is, if Kyoya and Kaoru can put aside their feelings long enough to pull it off.

Summary
“A lot of people say that when they’re younger,” Yuzuha says, disingenuously. “I didn’t want kids when I was your age.”
“We were already nine?” Hikaru and Kaoru chorus together, disbelieving.
Kaoru gets baby fever. Kyoya knows one surefire way to counteract a fever is a nice, cold dose of reality.

Summary
“We should have sex,” Kaoru says resolutely, propping himself on the table next to where Kyoya has carefully laid out his work. It’s loud enough to be a proclamation but quiet enough to not disturb Haruhi, Hikaru, and Tamaki as they begin to make their way to Music Room 3’s doors.
Kyoya stills, hands hovering over the keyboard of his laptop. His lack of response would have normal people believe Kyoya didn't hear the comment, or perhaps they would believe his lack of enthusiasm is an indication to drop the subject. That would be a normal person’s response.
But, well. Kaoru isn't exactly normal.

Summary
Rumors float through the tabloids constantly of Hitachiin Kaoru being a serial “first-date”r; taking one hot model, business man, or some other person out only to drop them immediately. People talk about how he must be a fickle lover and enjoys going through men like tissues, blowing his way through them and then leaving.
Not that Kyoya listens to such nonsense. No, what he mainly listens to is Kaoru ranting to him every time one of these horrible dates falls through, chattering on the phone about all of his suitors' many many faults.
One thing remains certain about such rumors - they never, nor could ever - discover how Kaoru truly spends his evenings.
