It was enough to know that the moment he brushed his lips against mine I knew that his heart was pledged to me alone.

His tall physique was enough to catch her eye at first glance. But the rest of his features were all so perfect she couldn't help but stare from across the classroom, silently, for once.
He was chatting with his other classmates, one of which hung to arm smiling with flowers all around him. The tall man seemed to be listening more than talking. He kept nodding his head and smiling slightly at whatever they were discussing.
He's really hot…Sakura thought dreamily. She was a boy person. A boy-a-holic, you could say. She had been bit by the bug many years ago and the lingering symptoms had still not gone away. But no boy had caught her eye as much as the dark haired stranger three yards away.
"I see you have your eyes on Morinozuka-san," a girl stood smiling beside Sakura, who looked up and nodded her head.
"So that's his name. He's very handsome..." Sakura's voice drifted off into space as she basked in his looks some more.
"He's part of the Ouran Host Club. I'm a member, most of the girls are. Would you like to come with me this afternoon and request him?" The girl smiled sweetly at Sakura who straightened up and nodded her head vigorously.
"Yes! I would! Are you requesting him, too?"
"Nah, I'm more of a Kyouya person myself," the girl laughed and waved her hand in the air. "I bet Mori would fall for you in an instant when he saw your eyes."
Sakura blushed and silently wished that love at first sight was real. It wasn't, of course. Only attraction was. And she was surely attracted to Morinozuka-san.
"I'll meet you after afternoon classes," Sakura gave a nod to the girl, who ran back to her seat and waved as the teacher came in, slamming a briefcase down.
"You look nervous."
"Well, this is my first time going to a host club. I thought they were usually hosted by women…"
Sakura and her new friend, whose name turned out to be Midori, were making their way towards the third music room from the senior wing. Midori's friend, Karin, was rambling on about the handsome, devilish twin Hikaru who she requested every time they went.
"They all sound very wonderful," Sakura said as they reached the door to the music room.
"Oh they are…" Midori and Karin smiled mischievously as they pushed the door open to a swarm of rose peddles and a heavenly chorus of
"Welcome…"
And there he was. Standing tall and lean in the back, wearing nothing but plaid pajama pants.
"Now, now, I see we have a new guest," A handsome young man, who Sakura noticed as one of her underclassmen, walked gracefully over and took her hand, bending down on one knee.
"My princess, if it was night, and you were there, I would have no trouble falling asleep with you in my arms," he gave a stunning smile up at Sakura. There was loud "Eeeing" of fangirls in the background that changed quickly to gaps as Sakura punched Tamaki in the mouth.
"I'm here to request Morinozuka-san," she said sweetly, walking slowly away from Tamaki towards a man with a notebook.
"Ah, yes. Sakura Himura-sempai am I correct?" the man pushed up his glasses as he scanned Sakura head to toe.
"Yes. You are the Third son of the Ootori family, am I correct? My father does fine business with your father," Sakura gave Kyouya a polite smile, which he returned.
"All of the girls who have requested Mori are sitting over there with him," Kyouya pointed his pen to a corner of the room near a window. There was a small group of girls surrounding a dark haired figure.
"Thank you very much!" Sakura bowed and walked off just as Karin and Midori exclaimed "Hikaru!" and "Kyouya-san!"
She could feel her heart beating hard and took a deep breath to steady herself before taking a step towards the group.
"Hello, I'm new," she managed to choke out, and all of the girls waved.
"Hello," they all said, and one of the girls scooted over to make room.
"Have you requested Hunny or Mori-Sempai?" One of the smaller girls in the looked questioningly at Sakura.
"Mori…" Sakura looked at the poker faced man in front of her.
"Is that your nickname, Morinozuka-san?" She had innocent ceriousity written all over her face.
An unconscious flirt by nature.
"Yeah."
His deep voice sent a shiver down her spine much like an electric shock in water. He was so manly, it was almost too much.
Almost, but not quite.
All of the girls stared at her in surprise and some in envy.
"You got him to talk!" The little girl stared at with large green eyes.
"I did?" Sakura felt puzzled.
Maybe she was different from the other girls.
Sakura smiled to herself.
