Kaoru X OC, Hikaru X OC
A double shot at love – Chapter 1: The host club dogs
The sound of two girls walking down the hallway echoed between the awfully huge walls as they walked away from the headmaster's office.
"Mr. Suoh sure did look nice, huh?" A girl wearing normal jeans, sneakers and a normal t-shirt asked. She had brown hair with natural honey-colored highlights, but hid it underneath the hat she was wearing.
"Guess he did." Another identical girl answered. She was wearing the exact same clothes as the other one and the only way to tell them apart right now was the fact that one of them was smiling, the other one frowning.
"I'm actually very excited to go to this school!" The smiling one said as she happily hopped from one feet to the other. "I mean, I know there are a lot of rich bastards thinking that they're all high and mighty and all, but that's not going to stop me from having a normal high school life!" She ended the sentence poking her sister in the ribs with her elbow, making her look at the over-happily smiling face she was showing.
"Yeah I know, but still – what's normal? I mean, just look at this awfully pink school with dresses as uniforms?"
"Don't think so pessimistic!" She said as she rubbed her finger over the wrinkle between her younger sister's eyebrows.
She pushed the older one's hand away. "I am a pessimistic optimist, I can't help it!"
The other twin grinned. "Well, I am an optimistic optimist and I'll make you enjoy your high school life even if I had to torture you to get you to enjoy it."
"Wow, I feel so much better now. Thanks, Koimi." She said sarcastically.
She laughed out loud. "You're welcome, my cutes Airi-chan." She said as she threw her a kiss.
It was silent for a short moment as they walked on. "So, " Airi started, "Any idea where we are going?"
"Nope."
"Any idea where class 1-A is?"
"Nope." Koizumi said the moment they heard the first bell ring.
"… And I guess you do know that we are late on our first day?"
"…Yep."
"Jolly."
Airi snickered.
~~When they finally found their classroom~~
The class heard knocking, heard a door almost getting knocked over and then a loud voice.
"Sorry we're late but we got lost 'cuz this damn school is way too big and we couldn't find the classroom and we had to talk to the headmaster and we're the new transfer students due to today nice to meet y'all!"
The class turned their faces to see the twins standing in the door opening, one blushing furiously, panting, and one extremely amused, panting.
"Koizumi –" the amused one said, her voice shaking from the effort of trying not to laugh.
The teacher looked at the twins standing in the doorway, then reassembled herself after a few seconds. "Well," The teacher said, "Since this is your first day at this school, the probability of getting lost is higher than on any other day, so I guess I'll settle things with a warning. But!" she held one finger up and looked through her glasses, furious, "The next time you come barging in like this is a school for commoners -" she seemed to spit the word out of her mouth, offending the twins, "- You shall regret the decision!"
""Yes, ma'am."" They both said at exactly the same time.
"And now, please, introduce yourselves to the class, misses Mitsuki's."
"My name is Koizumi Mitsuki." The girl still blushing said.
"And my name is Airi Mitsuki." The girl with amused expression on her face said.
""We're looking forward to being in this class."" They bowed to the class.
"But!" Koizumi started.
"If you ever dare to insult my sister," Airi followed.
""You shall wish you were never born."" They finished, with the cutest smile there has ever been.
The teacher told them to sit in the back of the class, in between the other twins in this class, Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin. As the Hitachiin twins stared at them, they stared fiercely back. First at Kaoru, then at Hikaru.
Their faces do look similar, Airi thought, but as a part of a twin I can see the differences. She snickered. "Heh."
Well this is interesting. Koizumi thought. Two twins in one class. Weird!
~~Lunchtime~~
It was pretty empty in the cafeteria because it was still summer, meaning most of the students sat outside during lunch at one of the many benches in the school garden. Koizumi and Airi could sit wherever they wanted to. They literally were the first persons to walk into the lunch room. Once they settled down at a table at the side of the room and started unpacking their lunches, a bunch of guys walked in. Airi looked up and saw that the twins from their class were part of the bunch too. Koizumi also looked up, but instead of watching, Airi could tell she was checking them out.
Koizumi took a bite of her sandwich. "Not bad." She said when she turned to face Airi again.
"What? The food or the boys?" Airi snickered sarcastic.
"Both." Koizumi answered happily.
"You're unbelievable."
"Love you too."
"Argh!" Airi said, faking a complaint.
They sat there, eating, talking a little. Most of the time they listened to the weird sounds the other group was making. They seemed to enjoy themselves a lot. Sometimes Airi and Koizumi heard two voices talking synchronic, which obviously was the twins talking. Most of the time when they did, a yellow-haired weirdo would react totally shocked, turn emo, and then a four-eyed dude would say something really calmly and the weirdo would be happy again.
Airi couldn't take her eyes of the twins. It was rare to see how they acted in the same way, exactly the same way, but still remained themselves. Or was she just seeing things?
At some point, when Koizumi and Airi were both staring at the twins. They started staring back. Airi met one pair of eyes and immediately turned her head away. What was she doing? Staring at a stranger? Even worse, a guy? Instead she looked at Koizumi, who was still passionately staring at the other twin. She'll keep on glaring –no blinking- until the other one looked away. And he did. As he shifted his stare from Koizumi towards his brother, he whispered something in his ear. His brother took one last glance at the girls, snickered devilishly and whispered his answer back.
Koizumi poked Airi. "Look! They're coming this way!" She whispered.
"Who?"
"Who do ya thing, dummy? The twins of course."
When Airi wanted to look up she felt the light pressure of an arm on her shoulder, and she saw that the other twin was leaning on her sister's shoulder.
""Say, "" The twins started, ""Since you're going to be in our class starting today, why don't you sit with us at our table?""
"Oh I'd love to." Koizumi said overflowing with sarcasm, "But we don't even know your names." She said looking at the guy who had been staring at her.
""Heh."" They snickered, and shifted their weights at exactly the same time so that they didn't have to lean on the Mitsuki's anymore, ready for a proper introduction.
"I'm Hikaru." The one at Airi's side said.
"And I'm Kaoru." The one at Koizumi's side said.
"Well, now that we know each other's names, Let's go to our table." Hikaru finished.
"Do we have to?" Airi whispered to Koizumi.
"Live with it." She whispered back, shining. "Okay, let's go." She said to Kaoru and Hikaru, motioning for Airi to get up too. Airi wasn't particularly thrilled to go there, but since Koizumi was enjoying this to the utmost, she let it be.
And so it was they got surrounded by weir men and weird men only. "Beautiful maidens," The yellow weirdo started blabbering, "Welcome to Ouran High." He handed out a rose. He started getting on Koizumi's nerves the more he spoke, but Airi took the rose and thanked him out of politeness. He seemed pretty pleased with himself.
He kept on talking about "the beauty of the other gender". As if it would interest me how beautiful I am. Koizumi thought, and then started giggling. Airi looked at her and could read what she was thinking from the way she moved her eyes and eyebrows. Airi started giggling too.
"What?" Hikaru asked the girls.
"Nothing," Airi chuckled, "Twins telepathy."
""Hmmm…"" they stared at the girls, which made Koizumi kinda nervous, making her giggle ever more, making Airi giggle with her.
"DID YOU EVEN PAY ATTENTION?" The weirdo yelled dramatically, but nobody was paying attention. The Mitsuki's now know that the weirdo was called Tamaki Suoh, son of headmaster. The four-eyes guy was called Kyoya Ootori.
""NOPE, "" the girls yelled back at the same frequency, ""WE DIDN'T!"" Making Tamaki grow mushrooms in his emo-corner.
When Koizumi -the louder twin- only smiled evilly at Tamaki and Airi was the one to start a laugh salvo, The Hitachiin twins looked surprised, Hikaru's face showing just a little bit more surprise than Kaoru's.
Then the bell rang. Everybody went back to their own classes, so the two pairs of twins walked back together. Airi noticed that, as they walked and the more students got in the hallways, the more female students would look back of scream or faint as the Hitachiin's walked by.
"Say, would you like to come to the third music room after school?" Kaoru asked the girls.
"Why?" Koizumi asked.
"Why not?" Hikaru said.
""True.""
~~After School~~
"Well, " Koizumi said, "This is it! The third music room."
Airi sighed. "They didn't tell us why we had to come here." She complained as she looked at the massive white door in front of her.
"So?"
"So, I don't like surprises."
"Aw, Come on! What's the worst that could happen?"
Airi scratched her chin like an old man. "I can imagine a few things."
"Let's just go inside! Adventure awaits us!"
Airi sighed an okay. Koizumi took the left doorknob in her hand and Airi the one on the right. They counted to three, then opened the door simultaneously.
"Welcome." Six voices echoed while rose petals fell down on the girls' heads.
"Ouran Private Academy is defined by, one, prestigious families and, two, wealth." Tamaki started blabbering, gracefully walking to the girls. "And prosperous people have much time on their hands."
"What is this all abouth?" Koizumi whispered in Airi's ear.
"I. Have. No. Idea." She whispered back.
"…Therefore, this Ouran Host Club is about…"
"A Host Club?" This time it was Airi whispering in Koizumi's ear.
"I. Had. No. Idea!" She whispered back.
"...these handsome guys that have time giving hospitality to these lovely ladies who also have time and profit off of them. It's an elegant game unique to this super-rich school."
Silence. The sound of crickets.
"Riiiiiight…" Koizumi said.
"A… Host… Club…?" Airi stuttered.
""Why, it's Koizumi and Airi? They came?""
""Didn't you ask us to come?""
"Welcome to the Ouran Host Club, special students."
""Special?"" The girls asked. ""As in we're special because we were able to enter a rich bastards school for rich people while we are only commoners?""
"Yes."
"Oh, okay." Airi said.
"That's all we wanted to know." Koizumi finished.
"Now if you'll excuse us." Airi said, turning around fiercely, already walking back towards the door. She had enough of this place already. Freaks.
"Aww, are you leaving already?" A short way to cute guy said, pulling at Airi's sleeve. She sure had a weakness for small children.
"Aw, I'm sorry honey, but I just don't feel safe with so many weirdo's around me." Airi said softly.
"please stay, Ai-chan? Koi-chan?" He tried again, pulling Airi further into the room.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING KOI-CHAN?" Koizumi yelled at the little boy, who drooped of to be comforted by a silent, muscled, long guy with short black hair.
The twins snickered.
"So what type do you fancy?" The girls heard Tamaki say.
""What?""
"Would you rather have the wild type, here presented by Takashi Morinozuka, in short Mori," Tamaki said gesturing at the long silent guy, "The loli-shota, Mitsukuni Haninozuka, known as Hunny around here," he gestured at the small cutesy guy in Mori's arms. "Or would you rather have the devilish twins or the cool type?"
"Y-you're mistaken!" Airi said, backing off towards the door.
"We were only here because they-" Koizumi said but got cut off.
"Or, " Tamaki said ignoring the girls, "How about you try me?" He said, placing one hand under Koizumi's chin, who was the closest to him, lifting her head up to his face – really way to close.
"…Wanna go?" Tamaki said, and Airi could almost hear something crack in Koizumi's head.
"NOOO!" She screamed, walking backwards, away from the freak, tripping over nothing, bumping in Airi, who fell against something and heard a crashing noice.
The sound of braking pottery echoed in the room, leaving behind a short silence.
""Aah…"" The twins sighed, popping up each at one side of the girls.
"René's flower vase that was the target of out in-school auction…"
"That's not good. And we thought we could've reaped up to eight million yen off of this."
"EIGHT MILLION YEN? WHAT ARE YOU, RICH?" Koizumi yelled.
"Err, about paying for this… "Airi started calculating how long it would take for her to pay it back with all the money she got from her part-time job.
The twins grinned devilishly. ""Are you even able to do that? Someone who can't even buy our designated uniform…"" They said, looking at the clothes the girls were wearing.
"Shut up." Koizumi bit back.
"Besides, " Hikaru said, "What is with the stupid outfit?"
"Shut up! Seriously." Airi said, still laying on the ground, glaring at the floor.
"What should we do, Tamaki?" Kyoya asked, holding one of the vase's chards in his hand.
Tamaki sat in a chair like an old king. "Have you ever heard of this saying, Mitsuki's?" He pointed at them. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. If you don't have the money then work it off."
"Starting today you girls shall be…" It was as if Kyoya was searching for the right words, "The host club dogs."
Dog. Dog. DOGS? The girls changed into statues.
Oh Bugga. I am so writing this down in my diary. Airi said, looking up at the ceiling. Koizumi still lay on top of her, looking apologetic.
What a start.
First Chapter - End.
I hope you liked it! Recommend and review if you did!
Look forward to chapter two, here's a little spoiler:
Before Koizumi fully understood what was happening, she was left alone. With Kaoru. To be more precise, left alone with Kaoru.
She started to undress herself slowly, very aware of herself. "Jeez, I can't believe that girl…" She mumbled to herself.
Kaoru's face popped up between the curtains. "Done yet -"
Wrong moment.
Very wrong moment.
"YOU PERVERTED SICK BASTERD!"
Kaoru dodged her punch and quickly turned around, closing the curtains.
"Sorry!"
"PERV!"
"I just said I'm sorry!"
"Who's gonna believe you?"
"Why did you cut your hair?"
"Don't go changing subjects!"
"I'm not!"
"Yes you ARE!"
"Well, maybe I am, but why did you? Cut it, I mean."
Koizumi fell silent for a moment. She pulled her t-shirt over her head, draping it around her torso.
"I didn't."
Dun Dun Dunnnn... Look forward to the next chapter ;p.
