Cracking the Facade

Chapter one: Just like you

Hoshiko Arakaki was considered one of the 'normal' Ouran Elite. She talked about her vacations in foreign places, wore designer clothing without thinking about it. People who met her thought she was a cheerful, flighty girl, just like everyone else in Ouran. She was the kind who would never be caught in a scandal. Hoshiko was also an avid Host Club client.

Atleast, that's what everyone thought about her.

In reality, she wasn't any of those. She was opinionated, sarcastic, and hated brainless people. And she was surrounded by those kind of people everyday.

It was last period. The second to last thing standing between Hoshiko and freedom. The last thing between her and freedom was the Host Club, the bane of her existance. The Host Club was a group of seven young men who used their over abundant freetime to entertain young women. They were also the first stop for any young lady of any means before they went home in Ouran.

That said, Hoshiko thought that their leader was the biggest twit she'd ever met. She hated even being in the same classroom as him, which she was unfortunately. So when she had to go, she either sat with the twins or Hunny and Mori.

Seeing that the bell had rung, she collected her beongings and left, intent on collecting herself before submitting to the endless drone of giggles and pick up lines. After taking the time to make sure her mask was perfect, she made her way into the Third Music Room.

As she entered the room, the vice president of the club , Kyoya Ohtori, came up to her with that evil notebook of his. "I'm sorry Miss Arakaki, but your time with the Hitachiins will have to be cut down to 15 minutes today. I hope this will not be a problem."

She smiled bashfully up at him and demurely assured him it was no problem, inside though she was screaming in joy, 'Yesss! I only have to put up with 15 minutes of those idiots!'

When she was sure he was satified with her performance she walked over to the group of girls surrounding the twins. They were doing one of their infamous "Twincest" acts, but she noticed that Hikaru and Kaoru had switched places. She knew that the twins thought that no one could tell them apart, so she made sure to mess up half of the time when it came to the "which one is hikaru " game. For the majority of her 15 minutes, she sighed and squeeled at the appropriate times at their antics, then quietly made her excuses and left.

On her way out of the building, she pulled her I-pod out of her purse and put in her ear buds. Then she walked to her waiting limo, an american song blasting into her ears as she contemplated the evening ahead of her.
