Of Actresses and the Rich.
Chapter 1- Coffee Spills and Acting Thrills
Kyoya's POV
Why am I in the commoners' mall? Oh, that's right, Tamaki dragged all of us here again. Moron. Where am I? I pick up a map that's sitting on the bench behind me and try to determine where the closest exit is. Next thing I know, the map and I are soaked and so is the girl who slammed into me.
"Damn I wanted that coffee too. Oh! Sorry! I wasn't paying attention, I was reading my script," she says and holds up the partially coffee covered script, "Hey, can you help me with this line? I can't get it right and the guy I'm acting with won't be around until rehearsal later."
Having no idea where to get another map or where Tamaki is, I sigh and nod. She's interesting. I want to keep talking to her. She closes the script and takes a deep breath.
"Rin, you idiot, you know what that would mean for you! To go to Hollywood, to make it big. But you can't go." she says, grabbing a wad of my shirt in her fist and dragging me down to where she is looking me in the eyes, "Not without me at least."
She leans forward, closing the gap between us. She pulls away and grins.
"I think I finally got it! Thanks so much!" she says, waving as she walks away.
I wave back absentmindedly. I slump down on the bench and wait for Tamaki. Who the hell was she? And how does she figure she can kiss random guys in the mall whom she just ran into? Literally. She was pretty though. With long, straight brown hair and bright green eyes. That wasn't exactly how I had imagined my first kiss though.
"Um Kyoya? Who was that girl? The one you were kissing? And why is there coffee all over you?" Tamaki asks, shocked.
It was then that it hit me, I had just had my first kiss with some girl I didn't even know in the middle of the commoner's mall. A quick look around told me that everyone around was staring at me. Shit.
Tamaki's POV
Mommy kissing a strange girl? NO!
"Wow, Kyoya-senpai with a girlfriend?" Hikaru asks.
"That's unexpected." Kauru says, nodding.
"She is not my girlfriend." Mommy said simply.
"So what? She's just some random girl who came up and kissed you?" Haruhi asks jokingly.
Mommy turns and fixes her with a stare and says, "Basically yes. And she also spilled coffee all over me. Are you ready to leave now?"
I nod and Mommy turns to walk out but notices something on the ground.
"What is it Mommy?" I ask, getting excited for a mystery.
"She dropped her cell phone." he mumbles, bending down to pick it up.
He flips it open and his eyes grow wide. He starts walking in the direction of the door we pointed out.
"Wait! Where are we going?" I ask, running after him.
"To return her phone." he says simply.
"Do you know her?" Haruhi asks.
"No but we all know her step brother." he says, shoving the phone back at us.
Hikaru takes it and flips it open. The banner at the top says 'Step-bro and me!' and the picture is of the beautiful girl we saw Kyoya with and Bossanova.
"No way." Hikaru said.
"We are going to visit Kasanoda." Mommy said, climbing into the limo, waiting for us to follow.
Kyoya's POV
We arrive and Tetsuya opens the gate for us.
"Hello! How are you guys?" he asks happily.
"Fine. We would like to speak to Kasanoda." I say.
"Oh, alright! He's around back." he says, turning and leading us around.
Kasanoda seems to be working in a garden. He looks up and his eyes light up when he sees Haruhi.
"Oh! H-hello." he says.
"Kasanoda, what is your step-sister's name?" I ask.
"Oh Mizuki Wanakano. Why do you ask? Have you met her?" he asks.
"Kind of. Do you know where she is right now?" I ask.
"She should be at rehearsal at UAR by now." he says. (Yes I know I used it in Wild Child)
"Thank you Bossa Nova." Tamaki said dramatically.
Moron.
Kasanoda's POV
After they leave, I turn to Tetsuya and say, "Well that was weird."
He only nods.
_Mizuki's POV
"Rin, I would like you to come back to Hollywood with me and be in movies. It's a great opportunity." Tiko says, leaning back on the prop desk.
"Thank you sir, I'll have to think about it though." Asuka says thoughtfully, that was my cue.
"Rin, you idiot, you know what that would mean for you! To go to Hollywood, to make it big. But you can't go." I say, grabbing a wad of his shirt in my fist and dragging him down to where I am looking him in the eyes, "Not without me at least."
I kiss him until the director calls scene.
"Perfect Mizuki! I loved the action you put into that! Fabulous!" he yelled from the fifth row.
"Thanks! I practiced today!" I yell back.
"Ooh who'd you practice with? Your boyfriend?" Asuka asks jokingly.
"You know good and well I don't have a boyfriend. And it was with some guy I met at the mall." I say.
"You practiced THAT line with some random guy? The blocking too?" Tiko asks.
"You guys know I'm not afraid to do anything." I say, jumping off of the stage and almost landing on a red-headed boy.
"Oh, sorry! Say, who are you? I haven't seen you before." I ask him, leaning back against the raised stage.
"I'm Hikaru. And you've met my friend." he says, pointing to the glasses wearing boy from earlier.
"Oh hi! Why are you here? And how did you find me?" I ask confused.
He holds out my purple cell phone and flips it open.
"We know Kasanoda. You dropped your phone at the mall." he says.
"So I bet you know my name is Mizuki Wanakano right? Who are you?" I ask, stuffing my phone into the pocket of my costume, baggy jeans and a camisole.
"Kyoya Ootori. And this is Tamaki Suoh, Hikaru and Kauru Hitachin, Mitskuni Haninozuka, Takashi Morinozuka, and Haruhi Fujioka." he says, smiling at me.
"Hey, you guys are the host club!" I say, recognizing the names.
"How did you know that, Mizu-chan?" asks Hani-senpai.
"My friend Renge Houshakuji works with ya'll!" I say, "Guess what? I'm transferring to Ouran on an acting scholarship too! Me and Pan is gonna rock dat house." I say in my best gangster voice.
"Who is Pan?" Haruhi asks.
I take off the ball cap I'm wearing and there is Pan, my flying squirrel, sitting on top of my wig. I also pull off the shiny black shoulder length hair, letting my real, long brown hair fall down my back, almost to my ass. I should probably get it cut. I hold Pan out in my hand for them to see.
"Pantalaimon. The name of the daemon from the American play, The Golden Compass." I explain.
"So what year are you?" Hikaru asks.
"First year, class A I think?" I wonder.
"That's the class we're in!" the twins yell and wrap their arms around my waist.
I see Kyoya's eye twitch. It's the most inconspicuous thing in the world, anyone but an actor wouldn't even see it. But, we're trained to understand subtle signals like that. Very interesting.
I very much enjoyed writing this and putting in Kasanoda and Renge. As you can probably tell from the story Wild Child, if you've read it, and this one, I am and actress. So Jooka-freaking-lorum! I think that was also in Turning Ouran Upside Down. But, yeah. That's the play I'm in at the moment. Cool.
