The Girl Named Kennedy
Rainbow Haired Girl
Summary: Kennedy Valentine is an British-American Choreographer and is new to Ouran High School. She seems to have eyes on her from none other than the Host Club, but one host in particular. She is hiding something from everyone and she wants to keep that part hidden from the world. Pairing is undecided at the moment.
Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran High School Host Club, but I do own Kennedy and her family.
Authoress Note: I decided to write this after a long time of reading this series. I have to say that I love this series so much that I couldn't help, but write this and make a good story at that. My character will not be a Mary-Sue... I really hate those and really don't like reading stories that the main character (oc) is a Mary-sue. I will try my best not to make her a Mary-Sue... if my character starts turning out like a Mary-Sue please tell me so I can fix it. Kennedy will be a hard girl to figure out, but everything will be revealed about her. This will also be set during the manga version of the story. It will have key points from the manga, but it will be original with my character in it. Also I will be setting this in 2012. Without further ado The Girl Named Kennedy.

Valentine Studio
8 AM
A young woman with short red hair was dressed in a dark green dress that was specially made for her to dance around in. She was currently working on a new dance that was completely freestyle. She was working on it for a new competition that she was to be in a few short weeks. She danced around on the hardwood floors of her parents studio. She always came here to dance in the mornings before she was to head to her first day of school at Ouran High School Academy.
"Kennedy." A woman's voice called out.
Kennedy stopped dancing and picked up the hem of her skirts and walked into the other part of the studio where the woman was most likely at in the studio. "Yes, Mum?"
"You should be getting ready for school... you wouldn't want to be late on your first day." Her mother said, with a small smile gracing her lips.
Kennedy wiped the sweat from her brow. "Are you sure that dad and you don't need help in the studio today?"
Her mother simply shook her head at her daughter's concern. She knew that her sixteen year old daughter was always concerned about things that shouldn't have even bothered her. "No, Kennedy... you should go to school today. You can't stay away from the schooling life forever. You need to get some schooling in before you go on this competition trip."
Kennedy let out a sigh and knew that she needed to go to school. She was just worried about how people would react to a dancer being there in their school when they hadn't had many dancers in Ouran. She was just concerned that people would flock to her like they would have in her old school. "Alright mom... I'll go."
"You should get ready... school is in an hour." Her mother said with a nod of her knew that her daughter missed being around Americans, but this was the only choice that they moved to Japan and was away from the press and stay out of the public's eye after what had happened.
Kennedy grabbed the uniform that she had brought with her. It wasn't the girl uniform, but the boy uniform. She almost gagged when she had seen the girl's uniform and never wanted to wear it since it was yellow in color. She disappeared into the changing area of the studio and began to get dressed for her first day of school. She could only hope that no one would ask her why she was in the boy's school uniform instead of the girls. She slipped her green dress off and began to change into the school uniform. She fixed the tie and looked in the mirror to make sure that it was right. She didn't know how well that she was going to pull off being a girl in a boy's school uniform, but she had to admit the uniform hid her curves very well. She quickly fixed her short hair making it more messy than before and in style. She grabbed her bag and headed out of the dressing room. She walked up to her mother.
"Oh darling I thought that you would be wearing the school uniform that was meant for the girls." Her mother said, taking in the sight of her daughter in the male's school uniform.
"Mom I saw that uniform and it is worse than the uniforms that I wore in my private school back home." She told her mother stressing the words private school. She had loved being in her private school in America, but after what had happened a year ago her parents thought it was best to move. A move that she didn't want, but it was the only way that she would go back to school is was if she wasn't around what would cause her pain.
Her mother let out a sigh. "Alright... I will see you after school."
Kennedy hugged her mother and smiled a small sad smile. "Alright."
"Try to make friends." She told her daughter.
"I'll try." Kennedy said, before heading out the door to get to school. She walked out and saw the limo waiting for her.
"Miss Valentine your father wished me to take you to school today." Their driver said, bowing his head in respect to the young dancer.
Kennedy nodded her head. "I kind of figured that he would want me to be taken to school in a limo. Thanks Frank."
Frank began to drive towards Ouran Academy. He wasn't looking at her knowing that he was going to see that same sad look in her eyes that he had seen for quite a while now. He wished that she had more than just the tears and sadness in her eyes. He missed seeing his young mistress happy.
The car ride was silent and that was the way that Kennedy wanted the ride to go. She didn't want to speak about going to Ouran Academy. Kennedy's eyes were glued to the window looking out to the passing by buildings. Her blue eyes widened when she saw the school. It was PINK! Who in their right mind would make a school pink? She hated the color pink it reminded her of how things were with her twin brother and now it wasn't like that any more.
"Miss..." Her driver's voice broke her from her thoughts.
Kennedy looked up at him. "Yes..."
"We're here. Miss I will be here to pick you up after school finishes." He told her.
"Thank you Frank." She said softly. She slowly got out of the car and looked up at the school after closing the door of the car. She couldn't help, but let out a small sigh. She walked up towards the school passing many of the students dressed in their school uniforms. She knew that she wouldn't be fitting in that was for sure. She hoisted her bag up further over her shoulder as she walked.

"Kyoya!" Tamaki called out to his best friend.
Kyoya tried not to groan when he heard Tamaki, the host club president. "What is it Tamaki?" He asked, trying not to sound annoyed with the blond haired boy being hyper and well just Tamaki.
"Did you hear... we're supposed to be getting a new student." Tamaki said, excited by the news about the new student that was going to be in their school.
Kyoya pushed his glasses up his nose causing the light to glare off of them. "Yes, Tamaki I have heard that we have a new student coming here." He knew about the new student. He knew the student's name and where they came from. He of course didn't know the reason why the student was coming here. It wasn't disclosed in the new student's file.
"Class settle down." The teacher said, from the front of the classroom. "I know that all of you know that we are going to be having a new student joining us today."
The girls began talking among themselves.
"I hope it is a boy." One girl said.
"Me too.. maybe he is handsome like the host club." Another girl said.
"Mr. Kennedy Valentine... please come in." The teacher called out to the new student.
Kennedy slipped into the room and felt all of the eyes of the students on her. She bit the inner part of her lip.
"Mr. Valentine would you care to tell us a little bit about yourself." The teacher asked, the young woman, who looked like a male.
Kennedy took a deep breath. "As you know my name is Kennedy Valentine... I am from Boston, Massachusetts."
A girl rose her hand.
Kennedy blinked a few times. "Yes?"
"Is it true that your parents own a dance studio?"
"Yes, it is true. They are both dancers."
"And you?" The girl asked looking up at her.
"I am a dancer as well." She said with a smile.
"Mr. Valentine have a seat next to Kyoya Ootori. Mr. Ootori raise your hand please."
Kyoya raised his hand.
Kennedy looked at the dark haired glasses wearing boy. She walked towards her new desk. She placed her bag onto her desk. She ran her hand through her messy short red haired locks.

At lunch Kennedy was looking at the menu that the school had. She had begun to wish that she had brought her own lunch with her. The choices she didn't really like, but she was going to have to choose something. "Lunch A please." She said softly to the lunch lady. She waited for the lady to give her the lunch that she ordered. The lunch lady gave her the lunch that she ordered and took it with her trying to find a lunch table to eat at.
"Valentine-san!" The blond haired boy from her class called out to her, she knew him to be known as the chairman's son; Tamaki Souh.
Kennedy took a deep breath and turned around, seeing that he was closer to her than what she thought he was. She almost jumped with seeing how close he was. "Yes, Souh-san?" She asked, blinking a few times. She had to admit that she wasn't expecting to meet someone that was hyper active and over glamerous here in Ouran.
"Join us." He said with a smile that was dazzling, it had made some of the girls swoon.
Kennedy blinked a few times. How the hell did he just do that? Girls swooning? He must be an everyday prince charming. She thought to herself as she continued to look at him.
"Please join us?"
Kennedy tried not to sigh. She wasn't one to make friends on the first day, but her parents wanted her to get to know people and make friends and that was what she was going to do. "Alright." She said, finally breaking. She didn't want to hurt anyone's feelings.
"Oh good. Follow me Valentine-san." Tamaki said, with a huge smile upon his face.
Kennedy followed him towards the table where he was leading her. She had to take a guess that the people that were sitting at the table was no other than his friends.
"Valentine-san these are my friends. The host club." Tamaki said with a huge smile on his face that made Kennedy think that his face was going to split in half. "You know Kyoya Ootori from class. And these are Takashi Morinozuka, Mitsukuni Haninozuka, and Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin. Gentlemen this is Kennedy Valentine."
Kennedy kept her mouth shut. She didn't know what to say really. Just being around this large of a group of people made her slightly nervous.
"Hey your that dancer." One of the orange haired twins said, with the parting on the right. "The one from Boston Massachusetts."
Kennedy tilted her head to the side a little bit. "Yes..." She said, her accent made her voice sound strange to them. "That's me."
"Kyoya-Sempai since Haruhi doesn't know how to dance... maybe Valentine-Sempai can teach him how to dance." The other orange haired twin said with a smile.
Kennedy tried to back up. Her cheeks were tinted over with blush. She didn't want to teach someone to dance. She had other things going on. She wanted to keep up with her dance routines that she had for an upcoming competition. "I can't." She stated as she shook her head.
"Oh please Valentine-kun." The smallest one said with a cute little pout on his face. "The one who was teaching Haru-chan gave up because he kept stepping on her feet."
"Yes, Valentine-san won't you please help him?" Tamaki asked looking at her with hopeful eyes.
Kennedy let out a sigh. She knew that Tamaki wasn't going to allow her to say no. "What kind of dance is it?" She asked, running her hand through her short messy red hair.
"The Waltz." Tamaki said with a bigger smile. He was kind of glad that Kennedy was agreeing to this.
Kennedy took a deep breath. "Fine I will teach your friend how to dance. I just can't stay a long amount of time." She told him. "I do have other things to do tonight... dance competition is coming up next year."
"I understand Valentine-san." Tamaki said with a smile. "Thank you for doing this."
"Well... thank me when your friend can dance the waltz without stepping on any women's feet. Can I ask why he must learn to dance?" She asked quirking her eyebrow.
"There is a ball on the 24th." He said with a smile.
"A ball? And your friend has four days to learn this? Well that is a task at hand. I guess I could push back my dancing practices for my competition for a few days." She said letting out a sigh. She really didn't want to push back her training, but if this Haru-chan was going to learn how to dance then it was going to take all of her attention to train him not to step on someone's foot. "Where am I to meet you?"
"Music room # 3."
"Alright I will see you there after classes are over." She told them.

This is the end of chapter 1. I know it isn't much, but it is a start. Please review and let me know what you think of the story. I am planning on putting Haruhi with Tamaki. I haven't decided on who I will put Kennedy with just yet. Seeing the fact that she is a second year student ahead of Hikaru and Kaoru, but is still the same age she could be with one of them. But the question is will she be with Hikaru, Kaoru, Kyoya, Mori, or Honey? I have no idea yet since her character is still developing into the story. How is she going to react to teaching Haruhi how to dance? Will she find out that Haruhi is a girl instead of a boy... and will the hosts find out that Kennedy is actually a girl and not a boy? I will have a poll up at the end of each chapter of who you can vote for and how the voting is going in each chapter until I decide to stop the poll and pair her with someone. You know the choices Kyoya, Honey, Mori, Hikaru or Kaoru. So please vote in your reviews and please let me know what you think. I already started the next chapter and it will be up soon. All I need is a few reviews before I post the next chapter. Until next time.
