I swiftly hurried down the stairs of my enormous mansion as I got ready for my appointment with my aunt to apply into Ouran Academy. It's been my dream to go to that high school ever since my older brother died. He wanted to go to Ouran, but while he was on his flight back home from America, his plane flipped over and crashed into the ocean.

"Oba-san, it's time for my meeting!" I puffed my cheeks in frustration as I stood at the front door, waiting for my lazy aunt. She ran up to me with a smile, but still out of breath.

"I'm sorry, Saori-chan! Let's go." We walked out of the mansion and into our limo. It was a silent, but comfortable ride, it didn't take too long to get there. As we walked into the entrance of Ouran Academy, a middle-aged man greeted us.

"You must be Saori and Hotaru Shiraishi, am I correct?" The man flashed us a warm smile. Oba-san replied, "Yes. My niece is here to apply into Ouran Academy. Are you the principal?"

"That I am. Right this way." He led us through the never-ending halls of the school, but that was okay for me. While on the way, he gave us a small tour. Soon enough, we reached his office. He gestured each of us a seat as he got down on his own chair.

"What grade are you in, Saori-chan? Is it okay if I call you that?" He said as he looked at me. I gave him a small smile.

"It's alright. 10th grade, sir."

"Please! Call me 'Ouji'." He raised his hands. He looked into some kind of paper that had a list of names. I'm guessing a list of people in my grade. He soon made a frown.

"I'm sorry, but 10 grade cannot accept anymore female students." Oba-san gave a sad sigh.

"Is there anything we can do?" She asked. Ouji gave a thinking look. It seems that he got an idea. He snapped his fingers.

"Why don't you apply as a boy?" Oba-san gave a worried look.

"Won't there be someone who can be with her? Since she'll most likely be around boys?"

"My son can. Don't worry, he's a very nice boy. I'll bring him in right now." He whipped out his cell phone and dialed his son's number. He picked up.

"Tamaki, can you go to my office right now? There's someone I'd like you to meet!" I couldn't hear the rest of the conversation, due to me being too far to hear the other person on the line. He put back his phone.

"He'll be here right away. Are there any more questions you'd like to ask?" Oba-san had her head up.

"Will she have to cut her hair since she will be posing as a boy?" Ouji answered, "You don't have to. You can wear a wig."

"I was planning on cutting my hair anyways. I'll make sure to cut it short." Ouji gave a worried look.

"I'm sorry about this, you look very pretty with your long hair!" I smiled.

"It's alright, Ouji, I'd do anything to get into this school." I said with confidence. Soon, the door softly opened.

"Oto-san, you wanted to see me?" He seemed to have a slight resemblance to his father. He had violet eyes and blonde hair. Ouji stood up, and walked next to me, holding me to stand up. I followed and stood up as I looked at the boy.

"Tamaki, this is Saori-chan. She'll be enrolling in this school tomorrow and I'd like for you to take good care of her. She'll be enrolled as a boy though." Tamaki looked at me with sparkling eyes as he rushed up to me for a hug. I could barely breathe, but it felt like my own brother was hugging me. I enjoyed it.

"She's so cute! But why is she enrolling as a boy? She looks adorable as a girl!" Ouji went up and separated us from our hug, since he noticed that I couldn't breathe.

"There's no more space for girls in Ouran's 10th grade class. But there's space for boys." Tamaki soon became frozen.

"Did you say 10th grade? But that's where those devil's are!" Ouji sighed.

"I know, you must be the only one who knows about the secret of her being a girl, okay? Protect her well." Tamaki had stars in his eyes. "I will treat her like my own daughter!" Ouji chuckled.

" don't you show her around?" I had a blank expression the whole time, so I didn't really know what was going on. Soon Tamaki dragged me out of the office with him. Guessing he's giving me a tour.

He gave me a bright smile at me, as he introduced himself. "Hi, I'm Tamaki Suou. As you can see, the principal is my dad. I'll be giving you a tour!" As he gave me the tour, I stayed closely behind him. He looked and acted exactly like my brother. I felt strangely attached to him.

Before I knew it, the tour was over. He guided me to my limo, where Oba-san was waiting in front of. As I got in my car, he waved good-bye and then he left. Oba-san stared at him in the distance.

"He looks a lot like Hiro, doesn't he?" I smiled in sadness, as I replied, "Yeah."
