"No! No, no, no, no! Nope! Nope! Nope!" I yelled, digging my fingernails into the marble floors. My sister, Kari, let out a loud sigh, her hands wrapped around my ankles, dragging me towards the double doors that led into Music Room 3. I kicked and screamed, not wanting to waste my time in an awkward situation with two pretty boys. "Oh hush, Roren! Daddy said we had to go! Its good for business," she persuaded, proceeding to drag her twin sister into the Host Club.
Kari let go of one ankle and twisted the door handle. The doors flew open and rose petal danced in the air. Seven devilishly handsome boys stood, one seated in a throne like chair.
"Welcome," they all said in unison. Kari raised an eyebrow, and I stopped struggling, my body turning to get a better view of them. Dang. These boys were attractive. Not that I would admit it though, it looked like they didn't need any more of confidence boost.
"Ugg...ughh..." I stuttered, mouth hanging agape. The two orange haired boys snickered, shoulders bobbing.
"That's our four o'clock," they said in sync, breaking away from the group and walking towards the us. I quickly realized that in my position, it was quiet obvious that they all had gotten a good view of my bloomers, that is if I had remember to throw a pair on over my underwear. Yelping, I scurried to my feet, dusting of this putrid yellow dress Kari had forced me to wear for this event.
Kari curtsied politely, taking one of the twin's hands and walking over to the two, rose colored loveseats separated by a glass coffee table. My eye twitched as the other expanded his hand for me to take. I brushed past him, mumbling, "Let's just get this over with."
The boy laughed awkwardly, obviously not use to a girl rejecting him. He caught up to me, smiling a toothy grin and sticking out his hand again for me to take. "You must not have seen me there, my lady. I'm Kaoru and that's my brother Hikaru," he introduced, a devilish glint in his eyes.
"Mhm," I nodded, making Kaoru clench his fist in anger. I shrugged him off, taking a seat next to Kari and glaring at her. She giggled evilly, knowing I wasn't one for puffy dresses or expensive shoes. Hikaru took hold of Kari's hand, spinning her around to face him, "You're laugh, it's infectious," he said, staring deeply into her eyes. She growled slightly, lips twitching in a frown.
I smirked at the scene, crossing my arms over my chest. Kari was never one for romance, but she did enjoy the finer things in life. She gingerly retracted her hand, placing it back in her lap.
"Oh please, I don't need the flattering," she scoffed, cocking her head to the side and closing her sea green eyes, her silky, black hair swaying as she shook her head. Hikaru narrowed his eyes in suspicion before placing two long fingers on her jaw and bringing her face to meet his.
"A lady as beautiful as yourself should be complemented every second of every day," he cooed, smiling sweetly. She hummed, pulling her face back and smiling. I sighed, rolling my eyes, it was just like my sister to seek out attention. She was always good at acting, it began when she cried about not getting another cookie to our maid. She was so good at it she got the whole jar!
A hand on mine brought me out of my thoughts and my head snapped towards Kaoru. I yanked my hand away. "Don't try to hold my hand!" I growled, pouting.
Kaoru only laughed, tapping his brother on the shoulder, "Look at how adorable Roran-kun is when she's upset!" he said in a baby voice, pinching my cheeks.
Hikaru lurched forward, "She is, isn't she! What an adorable thing!" he gushed, ruffling my bright red hair. I growled, steam coming out of my ears, "Am not!" I yelled, venom lacing my words as I clenched both of their wrists in a death grip. They whimpered in pain, rubbing both of their hands as I let go.
"Even when she tries to act tough she's still like a cute, little puppy!" Kaoru smirked, sitting back in the loveseat he occupied. Hikaru nodded in agreement before drawing his attention back to Kari, who was on the brink of tears laughing.
"So, I hear you two are twins," Hikaru starts causally, taking a sip of his coffee. Kari nodded, "Fraternal. That's why we look nothing alike," she told, flicking her long hair behind her shoulder.
It was true. We did look nothing alike. Kari stood tall at 5'7 with long, skinny legs and always perfect hair and makeup. She was elegant and beautiful, always catching the boys' eyes. I ,on the other hand, was the complete opposite, unruly hair, long torso, and stood at 5'3. I was not interested in the posh, frilly lifestyle my sister couldn't live without, I always felt that a person should work hard for what they had, not motch off their filthy, rich parents. But none the less, I was grateful for what I had.
I was brought out of my thoughts by Kaoru running his thumb up my arm, going up to my jaw and turning my head to face him. I sputtered, my cheeks burning bright red in embarrassment. I tried to advert my eyes from his own, which were staring at me intensely.
"You try to resist me, Roren-kun. Why?" his voice held mock hurt, eyes dampening. I rolled my brown eyes, trying to losen his grip on my face.
"You know, it either takes a real man to cry or a real p-" before I could finish my insult, Kari stomped on my toe, her small Mary Jane heels digging into my big toe. I let out a hiss of pain, pulling my foot out from under her and crossing my legs. Hikaru gazed at his watch, frowning deeply as he looked up to us.
"I'm so sorry, princesses. Your appointment has ended," he grabbed Kari's hand, stroking it lightly, "but please princess, promise me you'll come again," he pleaded, lip stuck out in a pout.
I quickly sat on my hands, not wanting Kaoru to grasp mine, my gaze locking onto a small, brown haired boy scratching some notes onto a sheet of paper. The two girls sitting across from him squealed happily, their hands flailing in the air. He looked back up to the two sheepily, a crooked grin forming on his face.
I snapped my head towards Kari, realizing what Hikaru had just said, "Okay, Kari! Let's get a move on! Chop, chop! Time's a wasting!" I all but yelled, pulling her and myself off of the couch and began to walk out of the hell hole.
"Good thing their father has set up multiple appointments for the two," Kaoru said solemnly to his brother.
"A very good thing indeed," the other evil twin agreed, shaking his head. I stopped dead in my tracks and looked back at them.
"W-What did you say?" I asked, my face full of fear. The two smiled evilly. I shuddered noticeably.
"Your father, Sumisu Jemuzu, he was kind enough to book you two appointments with us for the rest of the year," Hikaru smirked at the us, our faces probably looked crazy. My mouth hung open and my shoulders slumped, a dark rain cloud hanging over me. Kari most likely looked the same.
My shock turned into anger as I marched forward and jabbed a finger into Hikaru's chest, "Listen here, buster! If you think we're going to come here and listen to you falsely compliment us, you gotta nothing thing-"
"On the contrary, you adorable little fireball. You both will be coming here every week and do everything we say," he said, leaning down to pat my head.
My eyes widened, "What are you talking about? That's not how it works!" I screamed, causing the entire room of people to stare at us. The two smiled, a lingering silence engulfing us all.
"If you want our mother to work with your father you will," the two said together before turning around at the same time and walking off.
I held a finger in the air, opening and closing my mouth.
We would have to work for them?
Become their slaves?
I cringed, stalking out of the room with Kari behind me.
This would not and well.
