Hey guys! I am currently watching The Host Club (some of my friends persuaded me to) and I absolutely love it! I really wanted to write something with it so I decided on a crossover. I really hope you like it! Oh, and I'm really sorry if I get some of the personalities messed up, I'm trying to get them as close as possible to the characters. Please comment your opinions of how I'm doing on that, I'd really appreciate the feedback. Anyhoo, enjoy!
Disclaimer: I do not own Fruits Basket or The Host club but I do own this plot. (So please don't sue me!)
Chapter 1
Surprising News
"Tohru, you didn't have to make dinner, I already had something planned." Kyo said, slightly annoyed. Tohru looked surprised.
"Oh, sorry Kyo, I didn't know." She smiled sheepishly.
"Maybe you should have told her, stupid cat." Yuki added, coming into the dining room.
"Shut up, you darn rat!" Kyo growled. "I was planning on surprising her!"
"Well maybe-"
"Oh look, dinner's getting cold!" Tohru cut in before their fight could get any worse. "Let's eat!" Yuki and Kyo sat at the table, still glaring at each other. Tohru sighed and went into the hall. "Shigure! Dinner!"
"Oh, good! I was in need of a break." Shigure's voice came from inside his office. He opened his door and stretched. "Ahh, now, what are we having for dinner tonight?"
"Oh, nothing much." Tohru said. The two of them walked into the dining room and Shigure's jaw dropped at the sight of the banquet that Tohru had set for them.
"My dear, you are much to humble." Shigure told her, rubbing the back of his head.
"I do what I can." Tohru laughed, sitting down. "Now, shall we eat?"
"I think we should." Shigure replied, sitting. "Dig in!" The four of them filled their plates and began to eat.
"Amazing as always!" Shigure exclaimed.
"The roasted leaks are amazing." Yuki said happily. Kyo stuck out his tongue in disgust.
"The chicken is better." The orange haired boy muttered. Yuki whapped him upside the head and shoved some leaks into his mouth.
"Shut up and eat." The rat said, chewing. Grumbling, Kyo shoveled another piece of chicken into his mouth. Tohru giggled. The four of them sat, eating and talking about their day at school for a little while. When the food had been finished, the four of them began to clear the table and do the dishes. Then the phone rang.
"I've got it!" Shigure announced, running from the room.
"Ditcher." Kyo said. "He just doesn't want to finish the chores." He handed the plate he had been washing to Tohru.
"It could have been someone important, you never know." Tohru said, drying the plate with a towel and handing it to Yuki.
"He was expecting his editor to call, maybe that's her." Yuki told them. Shigure appeared then.
"Tohru, it's for you." He looked surprised.
"Oh?" Tohru went to the phone in the hallway. "Hello?"
"Tohru!" an older voice replied. "How are you?"
"Grandpa!" Tohru exclaimed. "I'm doing well, how about you?"
"I'm fine, though your aunt and uncle are getting on my nerves quite often." He grandfather mumbled. Tohru laughed.
"I'm glad you are doing well." She said.
"And I you." He said. "But that's not why I called. I have something to talk to you about."
"Oh?"
"Yes, I hear you are excelling in your school."
"I guess. The classes are pretty easy this year."
"That's good." He paused. "Would you like more of a challenge?"
"A challenge?" Tohru asked.
"Yes, have you heard of Ouran High School?" Tohru searched her brain.
"I've heard of it, yes." She said. "Hmm. Oh! Is it that huge school a few blocks away that is really hard to get into?"
"Yes, they rarely let anyone but rich people into it. But they're doing something special." Her grandfather said, his tone lightening. "The headmaster there is a good friend of mine. When I told him about you, he was very impressed. If you are willing, he has asked if you would consider attending Ouran High this week. If you like it, then you'll get a full scholarship for next year. If not, you may go back to your own school."
"A full week of classes?" Tohru said. "Wow, are you sure?"
"I am very sure." Her grandfather replied. "And you won't have to worry about the school work you'll miss. They have a similar teaching system as your school does so they'll be teaching you the same material, just at a little more difficult level."
"Wow, this is…incredible." Tohru muttered. "I don't know though."
"It's just one week, Tohru." Grandfather assured her. "I'm not putting you in for the rest of the year. And I am certainly not pulling you from the Sohma house. They have agreed to watch over you and I will not break my promise."
"I can stay here?"
"Yes, it was your choice to live there and I will not take you away from the friends you have made there." Tohru thought silently for a few minutes. It would be worth it to challenge herself, if even for a week. The classes she was taking were a little too easy at the moment, and she might like a new school. You never know until you try she thought to herself. She took a deep breath.
"Alright, I'll take the offer and go to Ouran this week."
"Wonderful!" grandfather exclaimed. "I shall let the headmaster know. Sleep well Tohru!"
"I love you, grandpa!" Tohru said.
"I love you to! Goodbye!" he hung up. Tohru took the phone from her ear and set it back into the holder. Was it a good idea that she had taken the offer? Well, Kyo had told her to start doing things for herself. She walked back into the kitchen to give the boys her news.
"Welcome back Tohru!" Shigure said happily.
"Who was it?" Yuki asked.
"It was my grandfather." Tohru answered. She took a deep breath and rushed on. "He said he talked to the headmaster at Ouran High School about me. He was really impressed and asked if I would like to attend Ouran for a week of classes. And I agreed."
"Ouran High?" Kyo said. "Isn't that the academy down the block that all those fancy rich people go to?"
"I've heard its near impossible to get into if you're not rich." Yuki said, looking surprised. "I'm surprised you've been given such an offer."
"Well, good for you Tohru!" Shigure said. "It's about time you started making decisions that will impact your future."
"You're still staying here right?" Kyo asked.
"Of course! I wouldn't leave here again. You need me too much." That made the boys laugh. With a happy heart, Tohru wished the boys a good night and climbed into bed, soon falling asleep with a smile on her face.
Hope you guys liked it! Please review, it'll make me update faster. ;) Oh, and to all the readers that read this before, I'm sorry about the mistakes. I uploaded it wrong and made it look funky. I guess I'll see you next chapter!
