Author's note: Hey! Yeah! I know I suck for not updating anything I said I was supposed to update but I've been really busy with school. We just had our 1st quarterly exams and I'm proud to say that my scores were kinda good! I might not look it, but I'm actually smart. Anyways, inspiration goes to my crappy superior(s) and our adviser being mad at us (I'm a class officer).

Disclaimer: I do not own Ouran High School Host Club. It is Bisco Hatori-sensei's. If it was mine... stuff would've gone very differently.


I stomped down the halls of my ridiculously enormous school. I mean, seriously? It's not even practical! Think of all the wasted funds! Did they even think of how many students would enrol here?

Anyways, back to business. Where is that stupid President anyway!

"Ah, Arisu-chan-kaichou?* I think she went to that host club in the west wing," Kobayashi Sachiko, our secretary, said. I thanked her before storming out of our club room in the friggin EAST wing, which brings us to the present.

I stand in front of the Third Music room, an abandoned music room, a waste of space and money. Whoever built this place was stupid. Why build three friggin music rooms? Okay, breathe Amaya, breathe.

I resist the urge to kick open the doors and slowly push it open. Flower petals fly into my face and I swat them away. What the fuck, man? And why is it so friggin bright in here? I squint as my eyes adjust. The sight that greeted me was... weird.

All I could see was a sea of the pale yellow of the girl's uniform. I looked harder and found a few figures in blue, the hosts probably. How the heck am I supposed to find Arisu here? I just stood there like an idiot, my eyes scanning the crowd frantically.

"Welcome Shiraga-chan." I looked to my right and saw Ootori Kyouya approaching me. "What brings you here?"

"Ah, Ootori-kun," I nodded at him politely as a greeting. "Don't mind me, I intend to leave soon." I offered a small smile.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" He asked. At that moment I found a head of curly brown hair bouncing up and down in what seems like giddy excitement.

"No thank you." Target acquired. "It seems my idiot is with your idiot. Excuse me," I smiled apologetically at him before taking a deep breath. "OI! KAICHOU!" I felt a smile tugging at my lips when Arisu flinched.

She slowly turned around and I mustered up the most soul-searing glare I could. She reluctantly met my gaze then quickly looked at the floor. I seriously saw a flash of fear in her eyes. Keep your poker face on Amaya! You cannot lose the facade of anger you've tried so hard to put up. Well, not that hard actually.

"Ehehehe... Amaya-chan, y-you've... found me?" She smiled nervously. A sigh hissed past my lips and I took a step closer. Her head snapped up to look at me with a look that said 'I'm sorry' and 'please don't kill me'.

"Kaichou, it's time to go. You've wasted enough time." I said, exasperated. How's a student council supposed to function without a president? Easy! By using the vice president as a friggin sacrificial lamb. Maybe, just maybe, next year I'll run for president, but right now, I was only forced to run. More on that later. She quickly turned around to face the baffled Suoh Tamaki and smiled.

"Umm... I'm sorry Tamaki-kun, I'm afraid I have to leave early." She bowed and briskly walked to the door.

"Wait just one minute, Kaichou," I said sternly. I walked to the door and opened it. "Sadao-kun, Aoki," Yamasaki Sadao, Treasurer, and Aoki Eiji, General Affairs Manager, walked in. I swear I heard 'Kya's' in the background. "Escort Arisu-kaichou to the Student Council Office, and make sure she doesn't get away this time." Aoki put his hands up in mock-surrender.

"Hey, it isn't my fault she's a friggin escape artist." You see, there was this one time that Kaichou escaped from the girl's restroom on the third floor, and that one time that she managed to escape through the maze. There are other incidents but the point is it was all on Aoki's watch.

"That's why this time Sadao-kun's here to help out." I put my hands on my hips and leaned forward. Any glimmer of hope left in Arisu-kaichou's eyes quickly faded.

"You're no fun Amaya-chan." She pouted. I let out a small laugh.

"That's my job as long as you're not doing yours Kaichou." I smiled at her and she stuck out her tongue. I nodded at Aoki and Sadao and they left with Arisu-kaichou. I straightened myself out and stretched my arms above my head. Kaichou can be a pain in the neck sometimes. I know she can do this, I mean, she's a third year in class A. In Ouran. These are pretty high achievements that she's done easy-peasy. She gets a little distracted is all.

"OURAN HAS A STUDENT COUNCIL!" I almost leaped out of my skin. I thought that, since I managed to capture our president, all the excitement was done. Boy was I wrong. I clutched my heart in an effort to slow down my heartbeat. I turned to see that it had been the Host Club King that caused my almost heart-attack.

"Of course there is, don't all schools have them?" Says a cute girl in boy's clothing. Her name's Fuji-something. It's on the tip of my tongue, I swear. Two pairs of arms latch onto me and I feel myself being dragged forward to the King, who, by the way, happens to be a classmate of mine.

"I can't believe it! Sweet little Arisu-senpai is the President!" He cries into oblivion. I vaguely see Mori-senpai and Hunny-senpai herding out the remaining customers. Oh please herd me out along with the rest of them. I'm a girl too! Why can't you mistake me for a customer? Oh, right, these two.

I look to my left and see an auburn-haired first year. I look to my right- and quickly look to my left again. Mirror images? Realization clicks in my mind and I remember. There's only one pair of twins in the Host Club, the Hitachiin's. See? That's how good a potential-president I am. I almost know almost everybody's names. Almost.

"Yes, and Shiraga-chan's the Vice President," Ootori states almost monotonously. Suoh looks at me, squinting his eyes with effort to recognize me. I try backing away. Oh, look! I'm being dragged forward again. "You know, our classmate, Shiraga Amaya." His eyes widen.

"Ah! Amaya-chan, the princess filled with mystery! Alas, I've unravelled one of your riddles," he said with a majestic sweeping gesture. He swooped in to grab my hand but I managed to yank it out of his reach at the last minute. He seemed lost for a moment but managed to recover by kneeling on one knee and offering up a rose. "I look forward to getting to know you even more."

"..." I opened my mouth to reply but nothing came out. I took a deep breath. Screw thinking about what I'm about to say, I'm talking to the Idiot-King here. He is sweet and he is smart sometimes, but he is very naive and very clueless. "Suoh-kun, stand up, you're just making yourself look even more stupid."

So blunt it hurt, his face showed exactly that, pain, a really big blow to his ego nonetheless. He looked at me teary-eyed before retreating into a dark corner of the room. I stared wide-eyed at him. I wasn't expecting that reaction. The twins whose arms used to be around my shoulders were currently laughing their butts off. I saw Ootori let out a small chuckle. Fuji...wara? Fuji...yoshi? Fuji-chan sighed and shook her head.

"Oh my God, I did not mean to break him. I'm so sorry!" I was about to panic.

"Don't worry, that always happens." Fuji-chan said.

"Eh... Still, I feel bad..." I looked back at Suoh and remembered Arisu-kaichou. "Ah! I know just what to do." I walked up to Suoh's corner and looked at him meekly. I must admit, I am a DAMN good actress. I said a few words, looked at him innocently and he was up and bouncing to the club's kitchen to get me what I asked for. I looked to Fuji-chan and gave my best grin along with a thumbs-up. A second later, I was being attacked by the Twins with questions.

"How did you do that?" "I didn't know that was possible!" "Do you have superpowers?" Yes, I do have the power to control idiots. Anyway, I wasn't able to answer any of them and was saved by Ootori.

"Kaoru, Hikaru, stop." And almost magically, they did. I muttered my thanks and gave a small smile. Ootori then began introducing me to the club. "This is Shiraga Amaya of class 2-A. She's the Student Council's Vice President and the Daughter of Kinomoto Miko of Kinomoto Electronics and Shiraga Toshirou, a cutting-edge lawyer that owns a large law firm."

"Hey." I raised a hand as if to say hi. "I was forced into being the Vice President by my cousin's idiot niece." You see my cousin, Mika-nee, got married last winter, and during their wedding I met Arisu-kaichou. The following spring, I found out she was my senpai and she managed to latch onto me and pull me into her world of high school politics."It's nice to meet you," I smiled at them.

The twins looked about ready to say something when Suoh began shouting about 'commoner coffee'. That got their attention pretty quick. They ran off. Freedom! With the twins and Suoh gone and occupied, there aren't any idiots left to keep me here.

"Thanks for your time," I smiled at Ootori. "It was nice meeting you...?"

"I'm Fujioka Haruhi," she offered. Fujioka!

"Fujioka-chan," I smiled warmly at her and noticed Ootori's eyebrows arch a fraction of an inch higher. "Keep up the good work, yes? And please keep an eye on those three for me." I gestured over to the now arguing idiots. She laughed.

"Yes Senpai." With that, I left.

That was the first time I met the Host club.


*Kaichou- It's the title given to the president; can be used as an honorific or as a pronoun, kinda like how you use "Senpai". Fukukaichou's gonna be used in the future, which means Vice President.

A/N: What did you think? Reviews would be appreciated.

I seriously just wrote this out of frustration. I don't think I specified why she's a shadow queen yet. If you're good at reading between the lines, you might have guessed the correct answer yet. I'll tell you the back story to my frustration next time. Thanks for reading :D
