Chapter 1:
I struggled with the buttons on my blue Ouran jacket. I got stuck wearing the males uniform since they didn't have female sizes that ran this small. So I had to get one specially ordered, but it wouldn't show up for a few weeks. "I wonder why the male uniforms run this small anyways" I thought aloud. My bedroom door creaked open and Adrian stuck his head in. He blew his unkempt white hair ( That's right PURE WHITE HAIR.) out of his reddish brown eyes and shook his head when he saw me struggling with the buttons. "You can't even button your own jacket." I glared at him and reached for my brush. I pulled it through my short blue hair and winced a little when it pulled through a knot. I used to have long, beautiful, blonde hair, but that was before the incident. About a year ago, I was in America, rushing around my room getting ready for school, no idea that my life would change that day.
Even now, it still seemed like a dream. The smoke, the heat, and the screams. The screams were probably the most horrifying. The shrill sound of them had filled my ears, but I couldn't move. Couldn't do anything about it. As everything started to fade to black, I remember a pair of strong arms lifting me up, and looking up to see Adrian, the only person I had left.
After the incident, I moved in with my rich uncle who ran a cosmetics company, and his into his huge mansion.
I adjusted my tie, ran down the hall, and slid down the railing to the first floor, with Adrian following behind me all the while. I sat down in the kitchen and twirled happily around in the bar stool. All of the maids sighed and squealed. What was the big deal? They do know I am 100% female, right? Adrian stood in the doorway. "Come on Var, or we'll be late." Glancing at the clock, I shoved a pop-tart into my mouth and ran out to the car awaiting us outside.
"We have arrived, my lord and lady." I hopped out of the car gleefully and looked up at the school. It looked like a castle. "Man, This place is HUGE!" I exclaimed.
As I skipped down the hallways with Adrian following swiftly behind, I heard the excited whispers of the girls around us. "are those two the new students?" "They're so cute!" I giggled and looked back at Adrian, who was unaware of the entire thing. I bumped into someone and turned to look at who it was. "I'm sorry, Miss." Adrian said while he lifted me off the floor. "Var, watch where you are going." I looked up at Adrian and hugged him. "I'm SOO sorry Adri-chan!" The entire crowd of girls squealed with delight. "It's not me you should be apologizing to." I nodded and turned to the girl. "I am really very sorry! Would you like a sweet?" I held a piece of candy out to her and she nervously took it. I hugged her and looked up. "Does this mean you forgive me?" "Y-Yes." The crowd awed and even the boys in the hallway were blushing. I glanced at a clock and gasped. "Oh no! We are going to be late Adri-chan!" We ran off down the hallway, leaving the squealing girls to their own imaginations.
The teacher finally left the classroom, so I sighed and laid my head on my desk. Two students behind me were arguing over were some girl went, not that I really cared. I stood up and started putting my books in my bag, and Adrian did the same. Suddenly two identical bodies appeared on each side of me and wrapped their arms around my waist, squishing me like a sandwich. "Kaoru, what do we have here?" "Isn't he so adorable Hikaru?" He? "Reminds you of Hunny-sempai, doesn't he?" I got nervous and looked to Adrian for help. In one swift second. I was in Adrian's arms staring back at two very confused twins. "Aw come on, we just wanted to play with him..." Who is this 'him' they were referring to?! Then I looked down at my male uniform. Oh... "Should we bring them to the host club Kaoru? I'm sure Hunny would love to meet him." The both put on Cheshire cat smiles and pulled us out of the classroom. Me and Adrian looked at each other and shared a thought. What is a 'Host Club'?
After a series of turns, we reached an abandoned music room. One of the twins, Hikaru I think, looked at his watch and sighed. "Looks like we are a little late. They probably started without us though." The twins pushed open the double doors, and an array of rose petals floated towards us. "Welcome."
