This is my first attempt at a crossover. Let me know what you guys think, will you? This is just a prologue, if you like it, I'll add on more chapters.
Features La Corda D'oro and Ouran High School Host Club.
"Len, may I come in?" The soft voice issued from outside the door.
Len let down his violin and turned towards the source. An impatient sigh escaped from his lips as he went to open the door, wanting nothing more than to continue playing.
"Mother."
The beautiful slim woman whom he resembled so immensely glided gracefully into his room.
"I'm sorry for disturbing Len, I know you were practicing, but I just wanted to inform you of something."
"Of what mother?" Len asked quietly.
"Your Uncle Suoh is planning on staying with us for the summer holidays. Tamaki is coming with him."
"What?" The little peace Len had managed to achieve from playing his violin vanished in one big puff.
Cousin Tamaki was coming? COUSIN TAMAKI?
"Now Len, don't make that face. Your Uncle Suoh is very fond of you. I know you're not very fond of Tamaki kun but why not give him a chance? He tries to make contact with you, why don't you try opening up to him a bit?"
"We have nothing in common." Len's reply was short and filled with irritance. He would have rather been told to live in the South Pole with the Abominable Snowman as a roommate than endure living under the same roof as cousin Tamaki.
"You do so. Both of you are very talented musicians. Tamaki plays piano very well after all."
"But that's all we have in common", emphasized Len, trying to make his mother see things from his point of view.
"It's as a good a topic as any to start with. There won't be any change in the matter Len, no matter how much you may dislike the idea. They'll be here in two weeks."
"And how long will they be staying?"
"That depends on your father. But at maximum, they might be here for a month."
"A month?" Repeated Len incredulously.
"It's summer vacation after all Len. It's a good opportunity for you to socialize instead of locking yourself in your room all the while."
"But…"
"Two weeks, Len", his mother repeated before exiting his room.
The second he heard her footsteps fading, Len closed his room door and resisted the urge to rip his hair out.
Tamaki wasn't a bad person exactly. He was just nauseatingly sweet and cheerful and loud. Not to mention an idiot. Yes, he was a loud-mouthed idiot who was always determined to see the better side of things. And Len was stuck with him for a whole month.
.X.X.X.
"Hosts, please listen up."
Attentively, the occupants of music room number three all looked up at the speaker. Tamaki Suoh cleared his throat for effect before continuing.
"I am taking a vacation in another two weeks time. I am going to Yokohama to spend time in my uncle's house."
"That's nice Tamaki, it'll do you some good." Haruhi looked at him with large brown eyes.
"All of you-" Tamaki swept his hand across the room "-are coming with me."
"But, won't that be problematic? I mean, it's a family gathering after all", Kyouya pointed out.
"I think there's a hotel owned by one of my relatives in Yokohama", Hunny senpai chimed in, his beloved Usa-chan tucked under one arm. "We can all stay there!"
"It's settled then! We're all going!" Exclaimed Tamaki, while glitter-joy appeared to emanate from his eyes.
"Karou? Hikaru? How come you haven't said anything?" enquired Kyouya, looking at the pair of flame-haired boys.
"This is kind of a let-down", Hikaru stated plainly as though he had been asked the time.
"Yeah, I was hoping for something more exotic. This is really sub-standard of you, milord", added Kaoru as he uninterestedly ran a finger across the rim of a tea-cup.
"That's no way to talk to family! Family is family, no matter what!" Tamaki shot passionately at the twins. "And that is no way to talk to your father!"
"All right then. Please tell us, Dad, why such a lame vacation spot?" retorted the twins sarcastically.
"Gah…I can't believe you just…Mommy!" Cried out Tamaki, addressing Kyouya as he quickly bent himself into a ball and turned away to the 'sulk corner'.
"It will certainly save the club of some expenses. I mean, with the lodging and food free, thanks to Hunny senpai's offer, the club will gain a profit of almost twelve percent if we go." Immediately, the shrewd thinker stated the pros and waited.
"Well, it beats being bored to death at home." Hikaru stretched and cast a lazy look at Tamaki's crouched form.
"Does…does that mean you'll come?" Hesitantly, Tamaki looked over his shoulder with puppy-dog eyes.
"Hmm." The twins muttered in agreement.
"That's great!" In a flash and with stars in his eyes, Tamaki gripped all the members of the Host Club into a tight embrace.
"You have no complaints, right Takashi?" Questioned Hunny senpai, addressing his question to the tall, silent Mori senpai.
"Um." Was all he said.
