A Love Of Few Words
A Mori/Takashi Love Story
Part One
A Strange Homecoming
I stood outside my families private airplane taking one last look at London the city I had fallen in love with two years ago when I had come here as the Japanese foreign exchange student. I pulled my jacket tighter around me as a sudden wind whipped through my hair. "Miss Kairi please it is time to go now." my butler said behind me. I nodded and let him guide me into the plane with just one last look at Big Ben from over my shoulder.
I took a seat and looked out my window until England was nothing but a small got in the big blue ocean. I relaxed into my chair and smiled, I may be leaving a country I loved but I was going back to my family and most importantly my big brother.
As I sat reading a book to pass the time I heard a voice call out "Miss Kairi is that really you?" I turned to see the happy bubbly face of my favorite maid Saiyu. She rushed over to me and turned my face this way and that saying "You look so much like your sister, Fuyumi. The long black curls, the soft pale skin, and those beautiful gray eyes! Oh I bet you just had those english boys just fawning over you."
"Please Saiyu don't make me blush. My sister is way prettier then I am and sure I had a few guy friends but they were nothing really." I said trying hard to hind behind my book. I had never been told I looked anything like my beautiful older sister before. Im sure it was just flattery because I had never been the pretty one in my family.
"Oh don't be so shy my dear if you have it flaunt it! Now I bet you are just dieing for some real food after two whole years of that english crap they call food. I just don't know how you handled it. Now you just sit here and relax while I go make you some Tempura." she said as she swept out of the room in her flashy fashion. I couldn't help but laugh a little. It was good to be home.
I landed and as I exited the plane was greeted by my father. "Welcome back Kairi I assume you had a good time in London. Now that your back I am happy to inform you that you shall be attending Ouran Academy with your brother starting tomorrow. If you wish you can go over there to get your schedule and look around. Your brother is still there with his little club" he said with a scowl. I couldn't help but wonder what big brother had done to make father so mad at him. "You will find him in music room three. Now I have business to attend so good day and I look forward to hearing about your trip at dinner." he said then without another word he turned around and took off in his own limo. I was slightly disappointed that my father had not staid longer but by now I was use to it. Besides I was ready to look at my new school and to see my big brother again.
I climbed out of the car and looked up at the huge clock tower that marked the entrance of my school. "Wow this place is huge." I whispered to myself as I made my way to the front office to get my schedule. The lady was pretty nice and I left with a wave as I studied my classes for the semester. They all seemed pretty tough I hoped that I would be able to pass them all. My mind dwindled on this as I made my way up a spiral staircase that my map said led to music room three.
I opened the door and was blinded by a bright light and bombarded with thousands of rose petals. I stepped into the blinding light and swatted at the petals annoyed. As soon as my eyes adjusted a tall blonde swept in front of me dramatically taking my hand in his. "Hello princess I am happy to say you are our first customer of the day. Now tell me what type of guy is for you."
I let out a small squeak and I closed my eyes calling out "Kyoya! Help me!" the blonde boy looked at me surprised but kept an even tighter grip on my hand much to my discomfort. I tried to run away but he pulled me into a tight hug.
"Princess why would you call out for help I have done nothing. And especially for Kyoya why princess why!" the blonde said through a whimper. I tried to push him off but he proved to strong for his appearance. I was just about to scream for help again when the blonde suddenly let go of me and I heard an exasperated sigh as I fell to the ground.
"Tamaki I am going to have to ask you to refrain from touching Kairi. After all that is my little sister." I looked up to see the face of my big brother Kyoya looking down at me. He held out his hand to help me up and I took it and hugged him tight. "Kairi I am sure we have gone over this before I am not the hugging type." he said wiggling in my grasp.
I giggled "Im sorry Kyoya but it has been two years since I have seen you! Didn't you miss me big brother?" I asked looking up at him with big puppy dog eyes. He never could resist my puppy dog eyes. He sighed again and opened his arms. I squealed with delight and tackle hugged him almost causing him to lose his balance. "I knew you missed me!" I said as I let go of him.
"Yes of course I missed you your my little sister" Kyoya said softly as he swept my bangs out of my eyes. I smiled up at him and in return I got a small smile back. That was more then I could of asked for considering that my brother wasn't the warmest person in the world.
"Yeah yeah you missed each other we get it but what we want to know" a red haired boy said followed by a boy who could only be his twin who said "is since when has Kyoya sempai had a younger sister?" followed again by his twin "And such a pretty one at that." I laughed as they hooked there arms through mine and pulled me down on the couch with them.
"Are you really Kyo-Sans sister? You sure seem different from him. You actually smile!" a cute small blonde boy with large eyes said. He was so cute I just wanted to give him a great big hug. I couldn't help but wonder what he was doing at a high school though. His cuteness was contrasted highly by the tall dark haired rather mean looking boy behind him. Yet I was more intrigued by the dark haired boy then the cute blonde one.
"Come on you guys give her some room. She hasn't even introduced herself yet I know she doesn't want all of you crowding around her the moment she arrives." a rather girlish looking boy said as she pushed all the boys out of the way giving me plenty of room to breath. I looked up at him with a thankful smile.
"Oh I am sorry I didn't introduce myself. My name is Kairi Ootari younger sister to Kyoya Ootari and the newest student at Ouran Academy. Its a pleasure to meet any friends of my big brother." I said smiling around at all of them. Looking at them all I couldn't help but notice they were all really good looking. And I mean like extremely good looking! Even though they were all equally cute my eyes kept going back to to the tall dark haired boy.
"Its very nice to meet you too Kairi its glad to finally meet Kyoya's younger sister. Excuse me for earlier my name is Tamaki king of the famous Host Club which I am pleased to announce you are now currently in the presence of my dear." the blonde boy who had taken my hand earlier. He didn't seem so bad now. "And this is Haruhi, Hikaru and Karou, Takashi aka Mori, and Mitsukuni aka Honey. Of course you already know Kyoya." Tamaki laughed taking a seat next to me.
The host club all greeted me and I nodded in return since I was at a loss of words. This was definitely not what I had expected to be greeted with my first day back in Japan. "So Kairi-San where have you been if your starting school so late?" Honey asked through a mouthful of cake. I frowned a little as a sadness overtook me. So Kyoya hadn't mentioned me at all.
"Oh so Kyoya didn't tell you." I said sadly then added trying to be a bit more cheerful "Well that's ok I guess. I have been in England studying as a foreign exchange student for two years. I just got back today and I am so excited. I have really missed spending time with my big brother." I smiled at Kyoya and this was met from a round of "awwwww"s from Hikaru, Karou, Tamaki and Honey.
"Well you are welcome here any time Kairi. Heck if your anything like Kyoya I bet you will be a big help around here. So tell me are you good at business like Kyoya?" Karou asked as he and Hikaru pushed Tamaki out if the way to regain there seats next to me.
"Well im not nearly as good with numbers and marketing as big brother but I am a really good organizer. I planned all of the balls at my school in England. Everyone said it was the best they had ever seen." I said nodding proud of myself. I had been so happy to hear so many compliments from my party planning.
"Well that's great! How about you be our new party planner because Kyoya is great with business and all but he lacks a certain feminine touch when it comes to planning. Besides what could be better then a sister brother duo! Oh I am sure it will be just wonderful to have you join the Host Club team Kairi." Tamaki said giving me a hug.
I could help but laugh at his sudden decision "You will come to learn that Tamaki often acts on a whim, Kairi. But if you want feel free to become the party planner for us though I must warn you it is no easy task. It takes a lot of organization and patience. Just don't come running to me if something goes wrong understand?" Kyoya said coldly as he wrote down something in his notebook.
I nodded. I knew it was going to be a lot of work but I wanted to spend time with my big brother and if this is what I have to do then so be it. I was going to prove to him I could handle this so maybe he would be proud of me. Also the Host Club seemed like they were all so nice if not a bit eccentric. Day one back in Japan turned out to be a very interesting day indeed and I had a feeling it was just the beginning to a very interesting new life.
