Well, this is my first story I have written but I would really like it if you told me what you think. I do not care if it is bad or not just tell me what you think...just be mature about it. Here is the first chapter. I hope you like. ^_^

Disclaimer: I do not own ouran high school host club. I do own Miharu, her mom, and her story.



There stood Miharu with wide opened eyes and jaw dropping down as she heard what her mother was telling her. She could not believe what she was hearing coming out of her mothers mouth.

"You are going to Japan and going to finish your studies there."

It seemed so unrealistic that it seemed like her words were unraveling from her tongue through her lips and slowly wrapping Miharu's body into a paralyzed state. Miharu was so surprised that it seemed like the whole world stopped moving.

"Miharu did you hear me?" yelled her mother as she faced the computer while doing her work.

Miharu snapped out of her paralysis state and exclaimed, "I'm what?"

"I think you should open up your world honey. You need to explore and have excitement in your life. Be more spontaneous."

"But I like living here mom. I like my life the way it is now."

"I'm sorry honey but I already sent your application and they have accepted you."

Miharu couldn't believe this was happening to her. She liked her quiet calm life that she has with her mom. She just couldn't accept it. Miharu opened her mouth to disagree with her mom.

"It's final," her mother said as if she knew that Miharu was going to say something.

Miharu crossed her arms and said, "Fine. Can you at least tell me the name of this school? And pleeeease tell me it's an all girls school."

"The school is called Ouran Academy, and no, it's co-ed"

Miharu's world has once again stopped. Her mother's words kept echoing inside her head. "no. no. no. no." Miharu couldn't take it anymore and so she fainted.

**************

Miharu opened her eyes slowly and noticed that she was lying on her bed.

She sighed and said, "Oh good it was only a dream." She laughed and got up to go to the living room to where her mother was doing her work on the computer.

"Hey mom. I just had the craziest dream."

As if she didn't hear what Miharu was saying her mother said, "You should pack your bags Hun, your flight leaves early tomorrow."

Miharu was confused. She had to think about what was going on for a minute.

"Wait you mean that wasn't a dream?"

"Miharu stop fooling around and get ready for tomorrow."

Miharu stood behind her mother speechless. Everything was rushing around her like a merry go round. As Miharu walked to her room to pack she could not stop thinking of everything that was happening. The thing that amazed her the most was that her mother would even apply her to a co-ed school, especially when she knows her fear of boys.

"How could she do this to me? She knows I'm afraid of b-b-boys. I even struggle saying the word. Awww, man I can't believe this."

By the time she finished packing it seemed like she was moving out of her house for good because of how empty the room looked. The only things left in her room were her stuffed animals, her T.V, and her bed. Miharu was so tired that she went straight to bed but the bad thing was she could not sleep. She was scared and did not want to leave. As everything swirled around her head, her eyes began to get heavy, and she finally got to sleep.

With the alarm clock ringing right next to Miharu's head, she jolted out of her sleep and fell off her bed onto the floor, "Ouch," she said and moaned right after. "I don't want to get up."

"Miharu wake up! You're gonna miss your flight."

Miharu sat up and rubbed her crazy bed hair. She yawned while stretching her arms and stood up so she could get ready to leave. Miharu looked at herself in the mirror and said, "What am I doing? I can't believe I forgot I was going to Japan." She laughed, but not of happiness, but of nerves and fright. Miharu knew very well that many un-enjoyable events were going to happen to her.

She walked to her drawers and took out the ugliest outfit she could pick since she did not want to attract any attention from any guys. In the end she picked out light blue jeans, which were ripped up all around, a lilac colored shirt that was stained dark blue from the wash, black sneakers, and to top it all off, a navy blue cap with red spots on it. Although her clothes were horrendous, because of her beautiful looks, the outfit did not look half bad. She brushed her long dark hair and put it up in a ponytail. Miharu was ready so she grabbed her luggage and walked out of her room.

"Oh honey you look beautiful. I love how your hair came out. Those curls look incredible."

Miharu's eyes widened and thought she was doomed. She tried so hard to look horrible so she wont get picked up by boys but it didn't even work on her mom. Miharu sighed and walked slowly to the entrance door of the house with her head hanging low.

Her mother saw that she seemed kind of down so she said concernedly, "Honey are you okay?"

Miharu let out another sigh and said, "No not really. Can we just go? I want to get this over with."

"What about breakfast?"

"I'm not hungry."

Miharu walked outside and went straight to the car. Her mother later joined Miharu and drove off to the airport.

*******

They finally got to the airport and Miharu was not looking forward to this trip at all. Her mother started to clean Miharu off. She dusted her off as if she had something on her and gave her a hug.

"Okay Miharu. Time to go. Now don't worry about a thing. You will be living with a great friend of mine. He has a daughter that is the same age as yourself and I know everything will go great."

Miharu looked up at her mom and said, "HE?"

"Yes he. But don't you worry he is practically gay." She laughed and gave Miharu a smile.

"Honey don't look so down. You're gonna make me regret this."

"Then regret it. I don't want to go."

"Miharu what did I say?"

"I know, I know. It's final."

"That's right. Now get on that plane with a great big smile and hope for the best. When you get off the plane just look for a cab and have them take you to this address."

Miharu's mother gave her a piece of paper with the address of the home in which she will be staying. Miharu smiles and says in a happy voice, "Oh. I remember this street. We didn't live to far from it before."

"You remember? Wow. I thought that you have forgotten all about our real home since we came here to America."

Miharu looked up at her mom's bright face and hugged her like she never did before. "I love you mom. I'm gonna miss you."

"I'm gonna miss you too baby. Now go and have the adventure I never had."

Miharu smiled at her mom and nodded. She gripped her handbag, turned around, and walked toward the flight gate. Although her walk seemed confident, Miharu was as nervous as a little kid going through a first day of school. She walked into the plane greeted the flight attendant, found her seat, and sat down as fast as she could. She saw that she was the only one on her row. The good news was that she got the window seat, the bad news was that the passenger next to her might be a guy. Miharu slumped on her chair, put her hat down to cover her face and tried to fall asleep. Miharu said to herself, "Maybe if I go to sleep I wont have the chance to see the person next to me. That would be good especially if it's a guy." Miharu shivered as the thought came across her head. Since she woke up so early, she was actually quite drowsy, so she slowly fell into a deep slumber for the whole ride.

****************

After the flight Miharu woke up grabbed her things and ended up being the first one off the plane. She got her luggage from the belts and walked out the airport to call for a taxi.

"oh man, I hope the driver is a girl," she said with a wine.

Miharu took a deep breath and walked up to one of the taxis. She jumped into the car and looked at the driver. It was a guy, of coarse. Miharu put her hat down as low as she could so the man could not see her eyes, or face even, and she disguised her voice to make it sound manly. The cab driver started to drive and asked where she had to go.

"This is the address. Please take me here."

"okay. We'll be there in a few minutes, it is not to far," the driver said very joyfully.

Miharu slumped down into her seat again just so she wont look attractive. "I sure hope this ride doesn't take long," she whispered to herself. In no time the driver stopped and told her to pay up. Miharu gave him the money as quick as she could and slammed the door open and speed walked to the door of her new home. The cab driver beeped and said, "hey how bout we go out and get a drink later?" Miharu just ignored him and knocked on the door nervously and repeatedly until someone came to open the door. Right when it opened the cab driver left, he didn't want any trouble. Miharu looked up and through the door and there stood a man dressed up in a long red dress with a black thin scarf around his neck and long lengthed light brown color hair. Miharu's jaw just snapped open and thought, "this is the guy I'm going to be living with? Oh dear god. Why don't you just take me away now?" The man just stood there staring at Miharu with a shocked face. His eyes opened up and yelled out, "OH MY GOD! Miharu your finally arrived!" He gave her a great big bear hug, almost suffocating her. Miharu was so surprised that she didn't know how to react to this situation. The cross dresser puts her down and says, "Look at how much you have grown. We've been waiting for you." Miharu stairs at him and says,

"we?"

"yeah…. Haruhi! Come over here! Why don't you come in?"

As Miharu walked in she looked over and saw a girl her age walking toward them.

"Hi," she sticks her hand out at her, "I'm Haruhi Fujioka." Miharu grabbed her small thin hand and shook it.

She gave a great big smile and said, "Nice to meet you. I'm Miharu Mizuhashi"

"Wow. You're really pretty," Haruhi said.

"Isn't she Haruhi. She has always been a beautiful child since she was a baby. Just like you Haruhi."

"oh, thank you Mr. Fujioka," said Miharu. She didn't expect him to say something like that.

"Oh dear. Please call me Ranka."

"Ummm, okay."

"Why don't you come with me, I'll show you to your room."

Mr. Fujioka picked up her bags and lead Miharu to the room. Although the house was not that big, it was still beautiful and comfortable. Mr. Fujioka put the bags down and Miharu noticed there were two beds in the room.

Mr. Fujioka then said, " You are going to be sleeping in here with Haruhi. I hope you don't mind sharing a room?"

"Oh..no..i don't mind. I hope I'm not intruding or anything." Miharu said with concern.

Haruhi then came in and said, "Don't worry about it. I don't mind sharing a room at all. It was my idea to have you sleep here with me."

Miharu was very glad about this. Even though she was an outsider, she was being treated like someone who matters, a part of the family.

Mr. Fujioka saw that Miharu was content so he decides it was time for him to go to work.

"okay ladies. I'll be heading out to work now. Don't get into too much trouble," he said while smiling big. Miharu watched him leave to grab his purse and out the front door.

"I've moved some of my clothes into this drawer so you can have this other one. I also moved most of my clothes to one side of the closet so you can have the other side and I also left space on the ground to put your shoes."

Miharu turned quickly toward Haruhi to see what she was showing her in the room.

"Thank you Haruhi." Miharu was still thinking what could Mr. Fujioka's job be, so she asked.

"umm…Haruhi?"

"Yeah," she asked with a questioned look on her face.

"In what does your father work?"

Haruhi smiled and said, "oh. He works at an okama bar"

Miharu gave a puzzled face, "okama?"

"yeah. It's a bar for cross dressers"

Miharu felt a little embarrassed and said, "oh. Okay" and turned around to fix her things. Haruhi just giggled and said, "don't worry. No matter how weird he is, he is a great man, and a great father."

Miharu saw that Haruhi was very proud of her father so she smiled and said, "I bet he is. Your lucky to have such a great father."

They both started giggling, which led to laughter and both Miharu and Haruhi became best of friends.

*****************

The next morning Miharu woke up early to take a quick shower and pick out her close. She was having a little trouble deciding what to wear, especially since she did not know what this Ouran High School was like. Miharu did not feel like standing out so she chose normal light blue colored capris, a white t-shirt with red sleeves, a black and white cap, and for shoes she chose all black high top converse. Little did she know that this high school she was going to was a high and rich school. Haruhi made breakfast and saw that Miharu was ready.

"Wow. Your hair is really long," said Haruhi. "I didn't notice how long your hair was since you had it up in a ponytail.

Miharu combed her fingers through her long black hair and said, "thank you. Sometimes it's hard to handle but I love my hair." Miharu giggled and gave Haruhi a big smile.

"you still haven't received the uniforms?" asked Haruhi.

"no. not yet. They told me to go pick them up when I get to the school, so I'll just pick them up before we come back home," Miharu said while eating the omelet that Haruhi has made. "This is really good. Wow. You have to teach me your secret. My omelet's have never come out this good before."

Haruhi giggled and came to a stop when she remembered about the host club, "oh yes. Before I forget. I have a club meetings everyday so to come back home you can wait for me or you can just come back home on your own."

Miharu was kind of taken by surprise so she did not know what to say. Then she decided after thinking about it for a few seconds, "okay. I'll wait for you while you finish your club meeting. I'll just take that time to browse around the school and possibly study a bit in the library or something. But don't worry about me. I'll cope somehow." Miharu was actually very nervous about this. She hasn't told Haruhi about her fear yet but she just did not want her to worry.

Both Haruhi and Miharu finished breakfast and began walking to the school. Miharu finally noticed the uniform that Haruhi was wearing. She was a bit surprised how much it made her look like a very cute boy so she got a little embarrassed. Miharu then said,

"Haruhi……is that the school uniform you are wearing?" while looking down.

"hmm? Oh yes it is actually, but this is the boys uniform."

"Huh?" Miharu had to think really hard about what Haruhi just said so she had to stop thinking which made a very long pause. Then Miharu suddenly burst out saying,

"WHY ARE YOU WEARING THE BOYS UNIFORM!!!???" This almost blew Haruhi off her feet but she kept her balance and laughed. Haruhi simply said,

"It's kind of complicated. I'll explain it to you another time. Just for the mean time, pretend that I'm a boy at school. Okay?" Haruhi said with a nervous smile on her face and her arm rubbing the back of her head.

Miharu couldn't believe what she was hearing coming out of Haruhi's mouth. As they walked the rest of the way Miharu was thinking to her self saying, "aww. I thought Haruhi was such a normal person but I guess like father like daughter." Miharu sighed out loud and Haruhi said,

"We're here!"

This surprised Miharu so much that it made her jump really high.

"Welcome to Ouran Academy!" said Haruhi with a great big smile.

As Miharu caught her breath from the startle Haruhi has given her she lost it again from the sight of the humongous school she was staring at. Her eyes sparkled and face shined like it never did before. She said to herself, "ALRIGHT! I'M GONNA STUDDY AT A CASTLE!!!" She just could not believe it. It was kind of like all her nerves were blown away just like Haruhi's presence did.

"huh?" Miharu remarked. "Where did Haruhi go?"

Miharu looked around and said confidently, "oh well. It's all good. I know I can do this. One step forward and a giant leap to my future." Miharu walked confidently through the gates on her way for her first day of Ouran Academy.
