"I still can't believe it's our last day!" Haruhi exclaimed for the tenth time that morning as she walked to the lunch room, one twin on each side.
"Same," the boys replied, grinning.
"But I will miss this place," Kaoru admitted, looking around the halls. Most students we're already in the lunch room, but Haruhi had to finish an exam and the twins had waited for her.
"How many applications have you filled out, Haruhi?" Hikaru asked, remembering the letter he had gotten that morning.
"Twenty," she replied, shifting her books in her arms so that she could fix her skirts. "But I'm really hoping for Keio. After my year in America, that is." Haruhi had opted to dress as a girl her final year. The school took it quite well, excluding a few jealous girls that were quickly taken care of by the club's Shadow King.
"Wouldn't it be cool if we all got accepted there? Especially because Tamaki-senpai, Kyouya-senpai, Hunny-senpai, and Mori-senpai all go there," Kaoru noted with a grin at Hikaru. The twins had just received their acceptance letters.
"Yeah, it would," Haruhi sighed wistfully as the three entered the cafeteria. They were immediately surrounded by a group of their peers who greeted them, asking about their day, asking what they were getting for lunch. Haruhi put on her best hostess face, batting her eyes and giggling as her male peers complemented her hair and eyes. The twins managed to get through the crowd fairly quickly, pulling Haruhi.
They all got their lunches and finally sat down at the Host Club table. Already sitting there were the new recruits. Deciding to add two boys a year, the club now contained seven hosts. The additions were current second years Akifumi Kobayashi and Kazuo Sato, and first years Nozomu Ochi and Reiji Higa. Akifumi had short, kind of spiky blond hair and bright green eyes, and was the new 'Prince-type'. Kazuo had unusually curly black hair and very light blue, almost gray eyes, and was the new 'Quiet-type'. Nozomu also had black hair, though his was straight, and green eyes, and was the 'Rebel-type'. Reiji had dark brown hair and big, amber eyes, and was the new 'Lolita-type' because he was only five foot one.
The group of hosts, and their hostess, chatted and ate happily until the bell rang, signifying the end of lunch period and the start of their fifth hour. The seven said their goodbyes and parted ways, heading to their classes.
The last four hours dragged on painfully for Haruhi and the twins, listening to lecture after lecture on how they needed to prepare themselves for a good future and to try hard. Haruhi zoned out halfway through.
Hey mom, she said silently to herself. It's almost your birthday. Dad's going to throw you a party. He bought a cake and everything. Also, today is my last day! What do you think America will be like? Kyouya-senpai said I need to watch out for hippies and muggers. Haruhi smiled to herself, suddenly snapped out of her thoughts as the bell rang, and the twins yelled,
"We're free!"
