-In both the anime and the live-action versions, after Haruhi says "You're really a nice guy after all; you were just trying to prove what Tamaki said to me earlier," Kyouya both times neglected to respond to her comment: all we get is a view of his back/the back of his head, and he does some type of expression that isn't quite clear.
Honestly, I don't really think he was going to rape her or force himself on her (well, no more than he already did). Like I said, I really can't figure out WHAT he was getting at, but in my experience, sometimes guys like to do/say things just to see what type of response they'll get.
(Men, I swear. . . )
My interpretation of that scene was that he didn't respond or show his face to her because he was stunned by her words and the fact that she could see through his mask. I don't believe he would have ever raped her either, just acting again on his facade - after Haruhi's words, his mask slips a little, and the live action emphasizes that even more with the flashback of Kyouya's dive and how worried he was.
