Chapter 1 - A Dream
"Mommy why do you play the piano?" Haruhi looked up at her mother who was playing the piano.
Her mother looked back down with a smile and replied, "Because it makes me happy."
"Daddy says that you don't play anybody else's music so what are you playing?"
"A Piano piece that I write myself. I will forget it shortly after but to just play...it makes me happy. Would you like me to teach you how to play?"
Haruhi nodded with excitement and hopped onto the piano bench and played as her mother taught her the notes and scales. "Mommy do you think I'll meet anyone who will play the piano as good as you?"
Her mother chuckled. "Well that depends. He would have to be a very special person to you, and he wouldn't be any normal kind of person either."
"What do you mean he won't be normal? Like he would have a tail...or maybe three heads?"
Her mother laughed and hugged Haruhi tightly. "No sweet heart. He would be like any other human with two legs and two arms and...one head. He would just be different."
"But why?" Haruhi smiled.
"Well because every girl on my side of the family have always married peculiar men."
"What does peculiar mean?"
"It means strange or different." Her mother smiled and looked over to her husband. "You know how daddy likes wearing girl clothes?"
"Yeah?"
"Well to most people that would be...peculiar."
"But I love daddy." Her mother smiled and kissed her forehead.
"I know you do, and someday you will meet a peculiar man like your father. He may not be the exact same but you will definitely be attracted to him...well that's enough for lessons today, off to bed now."
"Okay."
"Haruhi...Haruhi...wake up sweety." Haruhi turned in her bed to face her father's face.
"Good morning dad."
"Good morning sleepy head. It's almost time for school. Get dressed and I will drive you to Ouran. Oh and tell me if you are going to stay late after club today this time please."
"I will sorry about that..."
"What's wrong Haruhi?" Her father said in a confused manner.
"I had that dream again."
"The one about your mother and the piano?"
"Yeah that one."
"Well who knows maybe your dreams will come true and you will meet a peculiar someone who you feel attracted to." He smiled at her and closed the door so she could get up and dressed.
"Ha yeah right." She got dressed and before she knew it she was out the door getting in her dad's car.
"Hey Haruhi you might want to text your dad."
"Let me guess Kyoya - Senpai...I'm staying late again."
"Yes...I'm sorry but there is a lot more to clean up than we thought."
"It's fine. I'll text him later."
"Thank you." She watched Kyoya leave and began her work.
"Haruhi?" She felt a creepy breath on the back of her neck, and jumped while making a loud yet cute squeak. She turned around to see Nekozawa laughing. "What are you still doing here?" He asked when he was done laughing.
"I got stuck with cleaning again."
"Well I have a spell for that if you need some help..."
"It's not going to affect me is it? Wait no, no, no, no...Will it?"
He smiled and pulled his hood back. "No."
"Ugh fine but if it breaks anything you're cleaning it up. I still can't get over the fact that one time you turned Tamaki into a girl with your black magic stuff."
"Don't worry I use this to clean up my room." She watched him as he walked over to the piano.
"Um...what are you doing?"
"I told you I'm going to cast a spell to clean everything up." He began to play the piano and the melody was so sweet. then she noticed that it actually was happening. The dishes were flying through the air and going into the sink. As Nekozawa was playing he accidentally hit a wrong note and a cup dropped. "Sorry I'll clean that up...Now for the next piece." He continued to play but it was a different melody it was more bouncy and cute, and she watched the dishes being cleaned and dried then put away. Nekozawa ended the song and threw away the broken glass as promised. "See? I told you I would help you." He grinned beneath his wig. He put his hood back on and smiled even more.
"Thank you...I can't believe it actually worked..."
"Ah! I'm hurt. After you wished that Tamaki could be a girl for a week so he would understand how it feels to be one. I did as you asked, yet you still don't believe it's real. Well do you believe me now?"
"Yes and I didn't ask you to turn him into a girl for a week." She tried not to laugh.
"Well I will do whatever it is you do ask when you do ask it princess of darkness."
"Princess of Darkness?"
"Oh you've clearly never seen yourself be scary." He laughed and looked out the window. "Hmm it looks like it's going to storm would you like me to drive you home?"
"You have a car!?"
"Well no...It's a motorcycle."
"IN THE MIDDLE OF STORM!?"
"It's not storming yet and plus if you like I can put an invisible shield above us."
"Seriously!?"
"Yes. I can." 'Even though I really can't it doesn't hurt to make her feel hopeful.'
"Alright fine but if it rains you have to turn yourself into a girl for a week."
"Oh come on!"
"So you can't?"
"N-No..."
"Well I'll go anyway because I really don't want to get into the storm."
"Alright allow me to escort you princess."
"You can stop calling me that."
"Nope."
*Sigh* "Fine do what you want."
"Thank you I will." He smiled at her and she lowered her head in defeat.
They made it onto the motorcycle and started going to her house. As Nekozawa was driving he heard Haruhi trying to talk to him. "Hey Nekozawa?"
"Yes Princess!?"
"How is it that you have magic? I thought it was something in fairytales like Merlin and Arthur or in books."
"I don't know. I really don't know. My father said that it has something to do with an amulet that I was given when I was a child. They say it was a kind woman by the name of Kotoko. she wanted me to be a unique child in case I met her family and became friends with her future child."
"Kotoko huh?"
"Yeah what of it?"
"Nothing...It's the same name as my mother's"
"Strange..."
"Oh hey we're here."
"Really? Hm...Can I meet your father? I am a friend of yours after all."
"Yeah sure come on in." She smiled and rushed up the stairs.
So...I don't exactly plan how these stories go I make them up as I go along and so far it came to this...Let me know what ya'll think and if I should give Haruhi..."Powers" or not. I don't plan on changing it because I noticed it sounded pretty good to me at least. Well review and let me know. See ya in the next chapter! Bye Bye!
