Chapter 1 of my very first cross over fan fiction1? Please enjoy!
It was the first day of spring break at the beak of done when a loud shrilling noise filtered through the twins dreams.
"Ugh," Hikaru and Kaoru said in unison, rolling over and grabbing their pillows from under their heads and bending them to cover their ears.
"It's your turn," Hikaru said in a muffled tone.
Kaoru groaned again and reached over to grab the blue phone shrieking from the dresser. He hadn't even flipped it open when their boss's voice screamed. "She's gone, she's gone!"
"Not again," They said in unison while Tamaki kept screaming.
"She's gone!" He yelled. "Our beloved Haruhi is gone! Slipped away right under our noses! And I thought we were careless the last time!"
"Boss, relax." Kaoru said in a still tired voice. "Come on, you over reacting about nothing."
"Nothing?" Tamaki continued. "Nothing? Our dear friend Haruhi is missing and you're saying I'm over reacting about nothing? We need to find her! We need to call the army! We need-"
"Didn't you tell him she was visiting her cousin for the week?" Hikaru asked, watching his brother on his side with an amused expression.
Kaoru grinned. "Must have slipped my mind."
"Visiting her cousin?" Tamaki yelled. "Why did you tell me?"
"We just did," Kaoru and Hikaru replied each grinning grinned their mischievous grins.
. . .
"Thanks for letting me stay with you guys for the week, Tohru." Haruhi said while she rolled out her living arrangements for the week. "It's been too long since we've seen each other."
"I know," Tohru agreed, brushing out her long dark hair and placing a bow in one of her strands. "You've changed so much. I still can hardly recognize you without all your hair. You look beautiful."
Haruhi smiled. "Thanks, but it wasn't exactly my idea to cut it all off. Some boy stuck gum in my hair, remember?"
Tohru nodded in agreement. "I remember." She stood, walked over to her closet and pulled out a uniform matching her own. "Here's your uniform for the day."
Haruhi shuddered at what her cousin as holding. A blue blazer with a white color and under short that showed up along the sleeves along with a matching blue shirt much shorter than the girls uniforms from her school. Something under regular pretenses she wouldn't ever wear.
"Sorry," Tohru apologized, as her cousin stood and took the uniform with unsteady hands. "It's the only extra they had."
"No, it's alright." Haruhi replied brushing her short hair behind her ear and walking over to the mirror and held it up to her body. Yes, way too short." "As long as it's just for the day, right?"
Tohru smiled. "Mmhmm, then school is officially over and we can spend the week together."
"Well," Haruhi sighed, turning away from the mirror and taking off her shirt. "Okay." She tossed the shirt over her head and pulled her arms through the sleeves. Once she had, she pulled the skirt up around her waist and tugged it as far down as she could and turned to face her cousin. "How does it look?"
Tohru smiled. "You look beautiful," She replied, walking over to her cousin's side and turning her around slowly so they faced each other in the floor length mirror. "See?"
Haruhi stared at the reflection, and art her legs. She never wore skirts this short, and seeing this much of her legs was shocking. She could only imagine what the boys at the club would do if they saw her in this. Thank god they never will.
"What?" Tohru asked.
Haruhi started, turning to face her cousin. "What?"
"You looked like you were scared of something," Tohru explained. "What is it?"
"Nothing," She blushed, turning away from the mirror. "I was just thinking about what would happen if the guys from the Host club saw me wearing this."
"The Host club?" Tohru asked.
"Yeah," Haruhi shrugged. "It's this club were we um…." How could she put this without scaring her cousin to much? "We kind of entertain, girls I guess."
"Really?" Tohru asked. "That's….um…"
"Look, it wasn't my idea to join." Haruhi cried. "I broke a vase and I owe them a lot of money…so…"
"Oh," Tohru replied softly. She knew what it was like to be in money troubles. "Well don't worry. I won't judge whatever you do. You're my cousin and I love you no matter what. Right?"
Haruhi grinned at her cousin's fierceness. "I know, Tohru. I should have visited you sooner, you know? I've missed you so much."
Tohru smiled too. "Me too," She walked over to the window and opened it, while her cousin followed so that both girls were staring out at the beautiful blue morning sky. Early morning's chill twisted and twirled around them, ruffling their hair and their skirts.
"I miss her." Haruhi whispered.
"Who?" Tohru asked softly.
Haruhi sighed. "Kyoko,"
Tohru nodded. "I wish she could have seemed you with your short hair."
Both girls were silent for a moment as they watched the wind ruffle the world below.
. . .
"You can't be serious," Kyoya said bitterly when Tamaki was done talking.
"Of course I'm serious!" Tamaki replied dramatically. "We don't know who this Tohru Honda could be. She could be a mad woman or she could be an assassin or-"
The entire group as sitting down at Tamaki's home, seated around the table on tall chairs. Early morning light was streaming in from the large bay windows and everyone was slowly becoming more awake, each holding a cup of instant coffee.
"Will you please come down?" Kyoya asked, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. "She'll be fine."
"And how do you know?" Hikaru asked.
"Did you check up on her already?" Kaoru added.
"Actually, I did." Kyoya replied.
"Of course," The twins muttered rolling their eyes.
Kyoya typed onto his laptop and turned to show them. On the screen was a wholesome girl with long brown hair and row eyes with a smile on her face. She was wearing a blue jacket and was white shirt while she smiled into the camera, without a care in the world.
"Tohru Honda," He explained, his glasses shining. "In her third year at Kaibara High school. Good grades, except she had to retake on of her finals last year. Father died when she was three years old and her mother died almost three years ago. Currently living in the home of Shigure Sohma and his two younger cousins Kyo and Yuki Sohma. The Sohma's a very wealthy family. I'm surprised they haven't decided to attend Ouran. Though it is quite far from where they live."
"What!" Tamaki screamed, his face bright red. "Haruhi is spending the week with three older men? In a house where no one can protect her? Daddy will not stand for this at all! We are going to there this minute!"
"Come on, Tamaki," Hani whined, pulling Usa-chan closer to him. "Won't she be mad if we go to her cousin's house without permission?"
"I don't care!" Tamaki screamed slamming his fist down on the table. "Our beloved Haruhi is in a house filled with strange men who could take advantage of her. We need to make sure she'd not hurt!"
"So, Tamaki," Kyoya replied in a bored voice. "We're going to this Tohru Honda's house then?"
"Yes gentleman," Tamaki replied, his violet eyes shining. "That's exactly what we're going to do."
So, how'd I do? I'm hoping this fan fiction is going to go far because I really love Fruits Basket and the Ouran Host club characters. Please review!
