Umehito Nekozawa had always loved Tamaki, from the first time he'd seen him he was attracted to him. However, Umehito was terribly shy, and he was so very different from the Suoh boy. It was like the came from completely different worlds. Tamaki was bright and charming, everything that one would envision a prince to be, while he more resembled a demon. While Tamaki prepared for an open dance party, Umehito watched him from the shadows of the hall.

A slight smile curved the dark boy's lips as he watched Tamaki's antics from his shadowy corner of the room. He hardly looked like himself, having been trying to break himself of needing to avoid the light quite as much. His blond hair was showing, and although he wore his black cloak, it wasn't as heavy as usual and he left the hood back.

Kyouya sighed as he began to complain. "Tamaki, you ordered a full orchestra for our last dance party," he said, "We can't do it every time. It's not in the budget."

Umehito was there for two reasons. One was he wanted to watch Tamaki. He liked to admire the boy, since he knew he could never be close to him. The second was for his little sister whom had begged to be allowed to attend. Kirimi Nekozawa ran over to Tamaki excitedly. She now accepted Umehito as her brother, but still called Tamaki her "Nii-chan" just the same. "Nii-chan! Nii-chan!" she exclaimed.
