A/N: The idiot that I am made this chapter based on Halloween...so in light of these events I will take requests and ideas to replace the Halloween special and if you have any awesome ideas for a Christmas special as well. If I really like many ideas, I'll write two Christmas specials! Yay!
Barging In Remix Chapter 1
"I'm glad you're my friends Hikaru, Kaoru," the small boy said to both boys sitting on the bench. It was a breezy summer day and the three young boys were in the park, their lazy caretakers not in sight. "Thank you for being my best friends but…I have to move soon."
"But why? Just stay with us! We have fun don't we!" Hikaru cried. The small boy just nodded solemnly. Kaoru clenched his fist before standing and hugging him fiercely. "Don't forget us okay?" he whispered. The small boy smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
"I won't Kaoru. I won't forget you either Hikaru," he said, his blue eyes staring deeply into Hikaru's.

The teen woke up with a gasp. "Hikaru…go back to sleep," his twin groaned as his arm snaked around his brother's waist. Hikaru let himself be pulled down by his brother and moved closer to him. "Kaoru, I had a dream. I think it was someone we knew from long ago…" he whispered to his brother. Kaoru nodded his head sleepily. "Sleep now, talk later…"
Hikaru observed his brother and continued to do so until he fell into a deep slumber, completely forgetting about the dream.

The grand door swung open with light flooding from the entrance, blinding the student standing in front of it.
"Irasshai-masu!" The room revealed six boys (and is that a girl?) dressed up in the most immaculate Halloween attire. A tall blonde was wearing an elegant white and gold prince outfit. The bespectacled one was wearing a dark suit and cape, his smile revealing fangs. The girl wore a hideous and tattered outfit. The smallest wore a bunny rabbit costume. The tall looming boy wore a Spartan outfit.
But it was the two twins that caught the newcomer's attention. And not because of what they were wearing but because he felt like he has met them from so long ago. He turned his head away from the devil outfits of the twins and bowed his head quickly.
"I'm sorry! I believe I'm in the wrong room," the brown-eyed boy said confusedly. "I was looking for the study room and I thought this would be empty."
"That's what I first thought too…" the scarecrow-clad girl mumbled.
"Nonsense. Everyone is welcome here in the host club. No matter your gender," the prince said charmingly. "We welcome you to the Ouran Host Club. I am Suoh Tamaki," he said as cherry blossom petals started falling out of nowhere.
"This is Ootori Kyouya," the blonde pointed to the man with the glasses. "Pleasure to meet you," Kyouya said.
"Fujioka Haruhi," Tamaki continued, pointing to the scarecrow, who waved and smiled gently.
"Haninozuka Mitsukuni," the small bunny waved cheerily. "Call me Hunny-chan!"
"Morinozuka Takashi," the tall man merely nodded. "Mori-kun will do."
"And Hitachiin Kaoru and Hikaru," the blonde prince pointed to the redheaded twins, who grinned mischievously. "Pleased to meet you!"
"Thank you everyone. I'm Takahashi Shunsuke. It's been amazing to meet you all," Shunsuke said, bowing profusely. "But I really must leave. Got a lot of studying to do! Besides, all this amazing decoration will distract me…" He replied, mumbling the last part to himself.
The dark haired boy started to turn for the door when a beep and a sound of a lock resounded through the room. "Please don't leave! Be our first male customer! Please! It will be amazing we promise!" Tamaki said, blubbering and looking at the once again confused boy.
"Alright, alright! I'll stay. You didn't have to lock the door…I don't even know what a host club is, for goodness' sakes…" he said as he placed down his book bag on the table.
"Our host club," Tamaki started, his composure once again intact, "is a way for everyone to spend time and enjoy talking with one of us as we relax with tea and sweets," he explained, with crudely drawn illustrations on a blackboard.
"I have no idea what you just showed me there but I got the gist of it, I guess," he sighed. "Hmm…alright. Well, I guess I can spend the time with the girl…Haruhi-chan. Is it okay if call you that?" he asked.
The whole club looked a bit panicked at the stranger's knowledge of Haruhi being a girl as Haruhi nodded numbly. "Great! Let's sit," he said, looping an arm through Haruhi's arm as he mildly dragged her to sit in a corner.

The club was now in full swing as girls entered and marveled at the decorations around the room.
Shunsuke smiled gently at Haruhi as he sipped at his tea. "Hey, this is good. What is this?"
"It's tea…" Haruhi replied confusedly. Who didn't know what tea was?
"Oh this is tea! I usually just have coffee at home. So what are you doing here? Are you like the lesbian type here?" he asked as he glanced over the other host members. Haruhi got flustered. "No-no! It's nothing like that! It's just I broke one of their priceless vases and now I must be a host in order to pay them back," she said quietly.
"Why don't you just pay them with money then?" Shunsuke asked, taking a forkful of his strawberry shortcake. "Cake not risen enough…" he mumbled.
"I don't have money to pay them back really. They said it cost 8 million yen, at least," she replied, thinking back on the incident. The boy merely nodded his head. "But we do need to keep it a secret or else I'll never be able to pay them back. More troublesome really but I don't mind if I'm treated as a boy," she said.
"So tell me how you got into this overdressed high school anyway," the boy asked as he sipped the last of his tea.
Haruhi and Shunsuke's conversation continued, light laughs coming from both occasionally as they kept talking. The blonde prince continued to get distracted watching both and narrowing his eyes.
"Is something the matter, Tamaki-kun?" the girls surrounding him asked. He shook himself out of his daze and returned to his conversation. "Of course not, my lovely princess. You are here to shine light here after all." He replied easily.
Poorly concealed snickers and giggles emitted from where Haruhi and Shunsuke was as they tried, and failed, to laugh at Tamaki's corny lines.
"He does that everyday?" Shunsuke asked, laughing quietly. Haruhi tried to suppress her laughter, nodding. She was glad to have found someone that won't get offended with poking fun of Tamaki once in a while. His antics are endearing but funny as well.
The laugh subsided as they tried to catch their breaths. "Oh man, that is a good one too. Those lines never work on me though. Last year, some guy…" he continued his tale.
Hikaru was half lying down Kaoru's chest as they continued their 'pretend' forbidden brotherly love 'act'. However, both minds were stuck in the past as their mouths were in the present, trying to figure out exactly why the boy with Haruhi seemed so familiar and as if he was a kindred soul.

Shunsuke stayed behind talking animatedly with Haruhi as everyone seemed to have left until only the club has remained. When they glanced around again, the rest of the club was uncomfortably close, staring avidly at them.
"Gyahhh! What are you doing?" They asked as they jumped out of the sofa. They merely continued to look on as Hikaru replied, "We were interested in your conversation and how exactly it is commoners communicate."
"Commoner?" he looked at them curiously. "We talk the same as everyone else, Hikaru," she said, mildly annoyed.
"Oh! A commoner! Well I am sorry to pop your bubble, but I'm not a commoner. I just don't advertise I am rich. It's how we did things where I was growing up." He shrugged as most of the club, except Kyouya and Haruhi still dumbstruck.
"Well, I must go now. I still have to get home and make dinner! Haruhi, can I go with you? I live close to you anyways," he asked as he rose and picked up his book bag. She nodded as Shunsuke strode to the door. "Goodnight! We'll see you tomorrow!" he said, bowing quickly and exiting through the door.
"Wait! If you're not a commoner, then why do you wear hideous clothes to school?" Tamaki asked curiously. Shunsuke sighed. "Well, if it'll really make you happy Tamaki-san, I am going to wear my proper uniform tomorrow. I just forgot to wear it today as I woke up late." He said sheepishly.
"But—"
"Tamaki-san, we really must go! Train to catch!" Haruhi called as she dragged Shunsuke away.

"Wow, he's really prying isn't he?" Shunsuke asked tiredly as he plopped on the seat of the train.
"Everyday, they have such bizarre questions about the most common of things. Last month they were so fascinated by instant coffee! But they are quite the characters…" she said but trailed off as she saw the boy fell asleep.
He woke up exactly just before they reached their stop. "Let's go Haruhi-chan. Would you like to come over for a little bit? We can have some snacks," he offered but she shook her head.
"I still have to prepare for dinner tonight. My dad is coming home a bit earlier tonight. Maybe some other time," she said, politely declining. "Ah don't worry about it! I'll see ya then! This is my place," he said as he waved at Haruhi and went inside his apartment.
Haruhi waved back before taking 10 steps up the street and going up her complex, thoughts in what to make for dinner that night.*
*The joke is they live really close together. Not much of a joke but I thought it'd be something funny for later chapters.

Hikaru and Kaoru were splayed on the carpeted as they rooted through the few photos they had of their childhood, looking for nothing in particular but for something to remind their memories about the mysterious boy.
It was then that Kaoru gasped lightly as he touched his cheek, a picture in hand. A young voice echoed in his mind. Don't forget me, Kaoru!
"Kaoru, what is it?" his brother asked as he stopped rooting through the photos and placed his hand on his shoulder.
"The boy is Shun-chan, Hika," Kaoru said as he handed the worn photo to his twin. It was a photo taken by them; their heads close together as one hand held the camera and took the pictures.
"We promised we wouldn't forget him, Kaoru," Hikaru whispered guiltily. "Well, he probably forgot too! So it's not just us…" he said defensively. "Besides, we remember now, don't we?" he continued stubbornly.
Hikaru laughed lightly and kissed his twin before standing and hauling him on his shoulder as they crossed their room. "Well tomorrow, we can talk to our best friend again can't we? The first person that was able to tell us apart. And he doesn't even have to look at us."

Flashback::
"Guess who?" the nine year old's sight was blocked by a pair of hands. "Hikaru!" the boy laughed as he pulled the younger one closer.
"How'd you know it was me?" Hikaru asked as the young Shunsuke moved to hug the other twin. "I guess I just know…" he shrugged carelessly, smiling brightly at them.
Flashback End::

It was just before the host club starts again when the door opens and Shunsuke enters. As he walked towards Kyouya, a pair of hands covered his glasses and eyes. "Kaoru?" he asked before he was enveloped in a hug. His eyes widened in shock before his shoulders sagged and hugged the boy back just as fiercely.
"I'm glad you still remember me, Kaoru," Shunsuke mumbled to his best friend's neck. Kaoru let go of him only to be hugged just as tightly by Hikaru.
"Shun-chan. I'm happy you're back," he whispered to his ear. The brown-haired boy just nodded and held on tighter. Moments after, they parted as the whole club watched avidly.
"Wahhh! It's the reunion of long lost friends!" Tamaki cried, spinning around the room. "That should be like us, my daughter! Reuniting and hugging!" he said, happy tears flowing from his eyes and shiny glittery thoughts of him and Haruhi twirling happily together from his mind.
"We never really…parted Tamaki-senpai…" Haruhi said awkwardly.
Shunsuke pulled the twins close and mumbled quickly, twin heads nodding profusely. All three nodded in affirmative before parting. Shunsuke confidently strode up to Kyouya and said, "I want to be the Host Club's new pâtissière!" he grinned. "And why is that?" he asked challengingly.
Shunsuke huffed. "Your pastries are terrible. I assume someone searched for you a really high class pâtissière and you just hired him. Full of artificial stuff you did not even notice." He ranted.
Kyouya merely raised an eyebrow. "Is that so?" Shunsuke smirked and in a flash, a fork was shoved in Kyouya's mouth, shocking everyone but the twins into silence.
The bespectacled man chewed slowly as, deep in thought. He swallowed and closed his eyes in bliss before quickly regaining his composure. "Very well. You shall be our new pâtissière starting today!" he announced, making Shunsuke smile victoriously.

A/N: Honestly, I did not know how to write the ending any better way than that and for that I apologize. Hopefully, you were able to stomach it and is eager to REVIEW! I will post up the second chapter when I finish the third chapter :D *So that should be a while...*
