Chapter 1: Paranoia
I do not own Ouran High School Host Club! I only own my characters.

I'm scared of men, wait, let me rephrase that, I am terrified of contact with men.
I am not crazy...Although, my doctor did tell my mother I have Androphobia. I mean, I don't hate men at all. I love my father but, he's the only exception. My parents were devastated to know I had trouble being in the same classroom with boys at my previous school. So, their supposedly wonderful idea was to enroll me into Ouran Academy. Not because Lulubell, my older sister went there but, because of my personal matters.
It's a horrible idea and female private schools like Lobelia was not an option for me. My parents are persistent, a bit too persistent. They believe that if I was to rid my fear of men; I should try to establish a 'foundation' with my 'enemy' first.
'Hard Work' was their motto, not mines.
I am not from Japan nor am I of Japanese descent. I am actually from the United States; my father is American and my mother is Arabian. They met at some type of computer technician training in India. The two of them later set up one of their large computer companies known as Maple in Japan. I'm Emelia Harper by the way.
"Are you all set and ready?" A melodious voice asked me.
"No, I don't want to." I said gripping the seat of the chair with both my hands. I was uncomfortable in my yellow dress. "The uniform is strange and this school is strange." Lulu raised an eyebrow.
"I feel it in my gut!" I complained.
"Don't be such a party pooper. Up you go." My sister lifted me and my chair up from the main office and into the principal's office. Lulu stood a few inches away from me. She was quite tall, white porcelain skin, curly brown hair in a bun, green eyes, and a teal suit. She looks a lot like my father, unlike me, who stood at only a mere five feet, slightly tanned skin tone, and straight black hair that barely reached my shoulder blades. The only thing in common was our eye color.
"Stop it…Why did you have to take those weight training classes for?" I whined. Lulu just grinned and set me down next to the couch.
At first, the man standing from behind his desk looked over at us bewildered, but then smiled. He has caramel colored hair that matched his eyes, a fatherly face, and a white suit. I stayed quiet in my seat.
"Lulu-chan, it's nice to see you!" He greeted giving my sister a hug.
"Aren't principals supposed to be professional?" I muttered to myself.
"Mr. Suoh it's been a while. Sorry to bother you at such a time." She gave me a quick glare.
"Nonsense, a former student is always welcomed."
I wanted to leave and get this over with. I coughed to get my sister's attention.
"Oh my, and who is this darling little angel?" I heard my soon-to-be principal inquire.
"This is my little sister I told you about last week."
"Hello Ms. Emelia, I've heard so much about you. I am Yuzuru Suoh, welcome to Ouran." My heart was beating rapidly as he approached my imaginary personal space of two feet in radius. He extended his hand out for me to shake. I did the most shocking thing that a student wouldn't dare do.
I slapped his hand away.
"Emelia Eli Harper!" My sister scolded. She gave me mother's signature I-will-deal-with-you-when-we-get-home look. Lulu turned towards the principal and apologized for my action.
It took me a few seconds for me to register what had just happened. When I realized what I had just done, I quickly got off my chair and backed away.
"I am so sorry! I didn't mean to!" I shouted, blushing from across the room trying to keep my distance while bowing.
He chuckled and called out, "It's quite alright; I should have remembered my discussion with your sister. One of my students will give you a tour. She has your class schedule as well and is waiting outside."
I waved my arms to signal I was leaving the two adults and exited out the room.

'Wow that was so stupid of me. He's very nice, his reaction was a bit strange though. I thought I was going to be kicked out…How am I going to survive school?' I mentally thought.
"Hello there would you happen to be Harper-san?" I jumped a bit from the voice belonging to a brunette. She had an oddly-cute hairstyle.
"Y-yes, are you the student who's showing me around?" She nodded.
"I'm Momoka Kurakano, your homeroom vice president."
"It's a pleasure to meet you. I guess you already know who I am by now. You can call me, Eli by the way." I wasn't used to formalities in Japan. It was just a whole new world to me.
"The principal already arranged your seating charts for your classes. I already informed your other teachers about your 'troubles'." She handed me my schedule.
"Thank you and sorry for the trouble I caused." I gave a small bow and followed her down the halls. Momoka escorted me to my classes and I went with her to explore more of the prestigious school. I noticed an enormous crowd of girls swarming at a certain room.
"Hey Momo, what's going on over there?"
"Ah, I almost forgot. Today is the Physical Examination Day; there should be a doctor in the Special Clinic Room waiting for you if I recall correctly."
"It's Haruhi's turn to get checked!" One of the girls screamed.
I turned my head slightly to see the commotion. Before I knew it, Momoka was gone in a flash diving towards the crowd of girls. I followed in after her and poked my head out the crowd. In the room, there were boys undressing and getting measured. My eyes widened in horror and I wiggled my way back out screaming for dear life.
I sighed in relief.
"Excuse me, which way is the Special Clinic?"
"It's right down the hallway, first door to the left." A girl replied. I thanked her and walked to my destination.
I opened the door to the clinic and found no one around. I was about to leave until I saw someone entering a dressing room in a white doctor's coat. I followed the doctor behind the curtain.
"Excuse me-"
I cut off my sentence short. I was utterly shocked at the scene: A girl in her pink cami and a strange perverted looking doctor. When I was about to scream until he clamped his hand over my mouth. I started to hear my heart beat rapidly again.
"Please don't scream. It's not what you thin-"
On instinct, I rammed my right knee to his groin without a second thought. I kicked his stomach to forcefully push him away. He grunted and fell to the floor. I huffed to let out a breath, but it didn't stop my heart from beating rapidly of fear. I grabbed the girl's arm and dragged her out of the dressing room.
"Run!" I yelled. Then the 'doctor' got up slowly approaching us. I felt my legs lock in place.
I then noticed a yellow blur from the corner of my eye.
"Tama-chan Kick!" A blonde screamed kicking the face of the attacker. I stared at the impact that broke the wall. Five voices appeared from behind me.
"One: good looks that attract the public eye." A pair of twins said.
"Two: more wealth than you can ever imagine." Someone in glasses continued, stepping out from the shadows.
"Three: Chivalry that will never be able to overlook-" A very tall teenager said.
"-the hideous wickedness of this world." The blonde Lolita finished his friend's sentence.
"That's what makes up the Ouran Host Club!" The boy from earlier exclaimed.
"We're here! Watch out!" They all said in unison.
That's weird with a capital 'W'
"A-a-h..." I stuttered, trying to get the words out of my mouth.
All seven of the students noticed me trembling and stared. I couldn't handle so many events in one day so I did the reasonable thing anyone would do in this situation.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LULUBELL, MOMOKA, HELP ME!" I screamed running out the office.
Today didn't go so well. I do not hope to come back tomorrow either…
-Insert ending music: Shissou-
