Introduction: Hi everyone, I'm Ellie Mayland. I've moved from America to Japan with my dad and a lot is happening! I have long Brown hair and Hazel eyes. I know English, Japanese and French. I also love to play Violin, Piano and Tennis. I've never known much about my mom and I don't really associate myself with my dad, but not because I don't love him! So, I took my mother's maiden name to try to be closer to her. I hope you enjoy my adventures!

WOW, THIS SCHOOL IS SO BIG! I'm glad I'll be going in on the full scholarship, it'll makes things much more entertaining. I thought back to how I got here and why I was standing in front of the elite Ouran Academy.

Flashback

"We're moving?! Where could we possibly be moving to?" I said staring at my dad

"Japan" He said with complete confidence, not even realizing how shocked I was

"Why are we moving to Japan?!" I was completely baffled

My dad looked up from his newspaper "Because it's much more peaceful and my company is investing a lot of money into companies there. So I need to stay close to them."

My mind was racing and I thought back to my childhood. I have been learning Japanese since I was three. My dad said that "The future is in Japan and, it would be of good use" now I see what he means. I guess he planned that one day we would be moving there and it best to prepare me.

I noticed my dad was talking again. "We're leaving in a few days" is all he had left to say before he left the room. My mind was racing, adrenaline was pumping, and I didn't expect to be this excited! I didn't want to leave all my friends, but I loved a new adventure, and have always loved to travel. I was already thinking of all the things I wanted to do once I got there! I started to research the schools in the area when I came across Ouran Academy. The school is nationally ranked and beautiful. Even though my dad and I don't always agree, I still enjoy his approval and that's exactly what this school will give him. I find him in his study and start my proposal.

"Hey dad, I found the school I want to attend"

My dad looked up, only slightly interested "yes, and which would that be?"

"Ouran Academy" I said slightly blushing from being so nervous

I now had my dad's full attention and he was beaming "Oh, that's marvelous. I knew that would be the right school for you. I'll call them right now and get you enrolled!"

I smiled "No need, I want to apply under a scholarship, it'll be more fun that way."

"Well, if that's what you wish. I know you'll easily get in though" my dad smirked.

I walked back to my room with a smile on my face. The reason I wanted to apply through the scholarship is simply for my own amusement, when you can have anything you want, life gets rather boring. Hopefully, this'll provide some entertainment. I sat in front of my computer and started the application and admissions test. I was so happy you can do most of this stuff online these days. I went to bed with the papers complete and drifted into a happy sleep.

I woke up to the warmth of the sun on my bed. The first thing I checked was my email. I immediately started jumping up and down in a fit of excitement. The email was from Ouran Admissions, it read:

Dear Ms. Mayland,

We want to congratulate you on your impressive test scores and application. You are a fine example of what we look for in students and want to say how much we look forward to you attending our academy this coming semester. You have received the Full Academic scholarship. Your interview will be held in one week from today. Have safe travels.

Sincerely,

Mr. Isamu Sato, Dean of Admissions

Knew I'd get in. I can't wait to get there and start having some fun.

End Flashback

That's how I got here, to this beautiful and amazing school. I looked down the long path and headed towards the school. I had arrived on the second week of the new school year and missed the opening ceremony. I was okay with all of this because I don't really like to be in front of a ton of people. My interview had gone quite well and I had been given a tour of the school. It was actually quite nice and I did happen to spy some handsome boys. It did seem weird they would be here when the school was on summer break. I loved the uniform too, I like being able to dress up. With my schedule in hand I strolled down the flower lined path. I reached my homeroom and was 10 minutes early. My class room was 1-A. As people started to fill the classroom I began to get stared at by almost everyone, well actually everyone. I did expect this seeing as how I am a gaijin. A few girls did come over to talk to me. It was cute seeing them try and use the little English they knew. I immediately started using my Japanese; they seemed both relived and impressed that I knew it so well. One of the girls finally asked a question.

"So, do you come from a well-known family?" She asked. I knew what she meant and that she wasn't trying to be mean.

I decided to play dumb "What do you mean well-known" I said in a disappointed tone

The girl immediately felt bad and said "Oh, I'm sorry. It's okay for you to be a commoner and all. This really is a great school and I'm glad you have the opportunity to attend"

"Thank you" is all I said in return. I was laughing so hard on the inside. I decided to go along with it and all. The truth is my father is quite wealthy. My father is Jonathan Barkly and the owner of Barkly Hewfold. They're a large stock company that owns many different companies. Its net worth is currently 52 billion. Using my dad's powers most people don't even know he has a daughter. You have to be pretty close to know who I even am. So that's why it will be easier to just pretend to be a commoner. After everything calmed down a bit the door opened and in walked a set of twins. I later found their names to be Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin. I recognized the last name because I actually had a few swimsuits by that brand. I had made a few girlfriends and we all ate lunch together. They started talking about a club that seemed rather intriguing.

"Omg, did you hear about the Host Club here?" One girl said.

"What's a Host Club?" I said rather confused. I had never heard of one before.

The girls seemed a little shocked but realized I am a gaijin and might not have them back home.

One girl explained "well, its clubs were handsome guys talk and hang around you. There all very charming and nice, it's a lot of fun." It seemed weird but I was in Japan and thought I might as well have the experience.

Another girl asked "Hey Ellie, if you don't have plans why don't you come with us after school?"

I probably looked really excited "Of course I would!" So, it was decided. Two girls and I from my class would be attending the famous Ouran host club after school.

After the final bell the three of us walked over to music room three. We arrived with a few other girls and we opened the doors together. Rose petals and the smell of strawberries rushed at our face. I thought that this was both weird and exhilarating. In front of us were seven handsomely dressed boys in suits. One girl told me they usually dress up in cosplay but I guess because it was only the second week they kept it simple. My friends grabbed my hands and directed me to a couch. We sat over there with a few other girls and one of the hosts came over. I assumed it was my friend's favorite and that of others. His name was Tamaki and he was the "King". His hair was blonde and he was quite the charmer. His eyes immediately fell on me. He stared talking to me with his sweet voice

"And who are you my foreign beauty?"

"Ellie, Ellie Mayland" I said almost blushing. Wow these guys are good.

"And where do you stray from princess?"

"America" I said hardly containing myself. I asked a question now "And where are you from?"

"Well France originally" he said with this dreamy look in his eyes. My eyes lit up and decided I might as well show off. I started to speak to him again, now in French.

In French

"So how are you Tamaki" I said with a small smile on my face. The girls around me seemed impressed and Tamaki was a little startled.

He replied then "Very well, now that I met you princess" He can even be dazzling in French. I said a few more things and cut the French. I wanted the other girls around me to get some attention. I excused myself to get some tea. I must have looked confused or the fact that I was new because a tall guy with glasses started to walk towards me. He had Black hair and an air of cool around him. Normally, glasses don't work on people, but on him the just reinforced his coolness. He had finally approached me and he said

"Princess, are you lost?"

"I was wondering where I may get some tea."

"Ah, I'll send some right over, and what might your name be?"

Ellie, Ellie Mayland."

"Well, nice to meet you princess Ellie. My name is Kyoya, Kyoya Ohtori."

One thing that perplexes me is the name Ohtori sounded very familiar. I'm sure I'll think of where I heard that name later, right now I have attractive men calling me princess, and thinking can wait.

"I am so sorry, but I must excuse myself. I do hope you return"

"No, it's alright" I went back to my new friends, enjoying the tea, cookies, and attention. This place was VERY amusing, I'll be sure to return.

Kyoya was perplexed. Hmm, who could that girl be? An American girl with perfect Japanese at an elite school like Ouran must be important. I think I will ask the guys what they thought and then continue my research on her. We were all circled on the couches ready to discuss the day's events. Tamaki started first "So, I'm sure you all noticed we have a very different new client"

"Yeah, it was weird seeing an American girl. Who is she?" Haruhi asked looking at me.

I was always the one to know everything about everyone. "Well, I did some research and she moved here with her father for his job and she's here on the academic scholarship. But, that's all I know" Everyone gasped a little because I didn't really know that much.

"So, is she a commoner like Haruhi?" Tamaki asked

"I don't know, although no one really needs to be on a scholarship unless you're a commoner it doesn't explain a few things. She can speak fluent Japanese and they don't move just regular workers all the way to japan." Kyoya replied

"She also speaks pretty good French" Tamaki replied. This was all very odd. Normally, I could find anything about a person but it's like she doesn't exist.

"Maybe she's trying to hide something" Haruhi said

"Well, if that's the case we must find out. It would be to unbearable not to know" Tamaki screamed in a girly shrill.

"Hey dad, how was your day?"

"Very well, how was your day at your new school?"

"Very Interesting. They have this thing called a host club there."

My dad looked around almost like he was about to faint "What!?"

"Yeah, it's just some really nice boys that hang around girls and make them feel special. Pretty different than back home."

My dad almost looked relived "Oh, that's all it is? I had just heard some awful things about those kinds of places. But it does sound rather different."

I can't wait to see what else this school has in store for me.
