Tamaki was bored, never a good thing for the hosts as they were often dragged further into his little and slightly deranged world than they'd like.
"Lets play truth or dare!" the king announced out of the blue. Haruhi felt a feeling of dread overcome her, she loathed dares and with the twins she dread to think what she would be made to do. Hopefully, she thought, "daddy" would prevent them from doing anything too evil. As if sensing her worry tamaki told the twins very firmly that:
"if my daughter is in anyway damaged during this game there shall be hell to pay" Haruhi smiled. Tamaki could be an arse some days, but he took good care of her.
"Tami~chan! Tami~Chan! Me and Mori~chan want to play too!" a certain boy lolita cried while sitting upon Mori's shoulders, clutching a pink rabbit. Honey was a 17 year old martial arts expert, although you wouldn't think so to look at him.
"Of course you can play honey, it'd be little fun without you" Haruhi said
"Yay!" the boy lolita cried while hopping off of Mori's shoulders.
"thanks" was all mori, the maybe-not-so-gentle-giant said and gave a small, but genuine smile.
"Are you not joining us Koyouya?" Tamaki asked
"no"
"aww, c'mon please? Don't be such a killjoy" the twins chanted in unison
"no"
"please Koyo~chan? I'll let you have some cake!" Honey thrust a plate with a strawberry covered cake on it at him.
"although, I do love strawberrys, maybe we could share and go halfsies? But maybe the others might want some-"
"Honey, i said no." Koyouya declared firmly. Honey began to well up after being reprimanded in what he thought to be an unnessesarly harsh manner. Mori bent down to Honeys level and started comforting the boy.
Sighing, Koyuoya stood up, he was a sucker for tears.
"fine, i'll play. Just to shut you guys up and so i can laugh when it all goes wrong"
"Great! So, who's first?"
Giving everyone his most dazzling smile Tamaki produced a jewel ectrusted bottle, seemingly from nowhere. Haruhi went pale
"whoa, whoa, whoa! Hang on! I thought we were playing truth or dare, not spin the bottle!"
The others shot her a bemused look
"This is just a small refreshment... Unless you want to play spin the bottle?" The twins said, smiling mischeviously.
"no, no, it's ok. Truth Or Dare is fine by me" haruhi replied quickly.
"ok then, lets begin! We'll do 21 dares, but with the option of truth. I'll start. 1,2,3..." declarded Tamaki
"4" said Hikaru
"5" said Kaoru
"6, 7, 8" said honey, bouncing up and down in anticipation
"9" grunted mori
"10, 11" sighed Kyouya
"12, 13, 14" Haruhi said, her stomach somersaulting
They continued in this fashion until...
"21" a mortified Haruhi whispered.
"Truth Or Dare?" the other hosts chanted
Mom? Please forgive me if i embarrass you in heaven, haruhi thought.
"truth..."
The other hosts huddled for several minutes, discussing whatever question they were about to embarrass Haruhi with. Tamaki obviously didn't like some of the questions the twins were proposing, as small cries of pain were heard. Eventually they came up with, what they deemed to be a sensible question.
"Why are girls so moody on their periods? They seem perfectly nice one minute then they're telling us to 'get out of their faces' and insulting us. We don't get it."Hikaru asked. It was true, the boys did look genuinly confused by it.
"well, it's not much fun really," Haruhi began, blushing a deep red,
"I mean 3-5 days of stomach pains and raging hormones make life difficult. Especially when there are guys who seem not to understand much about periods and such about"
"It hurts?" Tamaki asked
"we just thought girls used it as an excuse for sympathy..." the twins added
"It's not too bad to be honest. Once you have some decent painkillers and a good night sleep its ok."
What odd questions to ask, and why ask me? Haruhi thought
Of course, How dumb I am, i'm the only girl who they're friends with and they feel comfortable talking about this with. Whats more-
haruhi didn't get time to finish her thought before she was being hugged by the boys and having them be sympathetic to her about it. Even though the host club was at that time closed they still felt the need to occasionally practised hosting on each other, this was one of those moments.
"Right, lets move on before we embarrass Haruhi anymore" Kyouya announced, much to Harhuri's relief.
Once again they went around and each said numbers until once again someone called 21.
That someone was Tamaki.
"I chose DARE!" The king cried excitedly. He loved dares, the funnier the better. Although, that was only when the dares were for other people. Ah, hell, tamaki thought, have i made a huge mistake? He looked over at the rest of the group, the twins were crying with laughter. Yes, this was a mistake.
"We dare you to KISS KYOUYA!" The twins yelled
"What!?!" cried both Tamaki and Kyouya, obviously, this was not the original dare, but one the twins had formulated.
"well, you two always act like husband and wife, so you have to do something like this. Unless you don't want to do it?"
"NO" They yelled in unison
"well, you'll have to do the forfeit, Kiss you-know-who" the twins pointed at the double doors, behind which lurked the dark magic club head with his cat puppet which he used to curse people. Tamaki went pale. He feared Nekozawa and his cat puppet, belznuf like no other.
"Fine, I'll kiss Kyouya." Tamaki quickly said. He'd only lose part of his dignaty kissing Kyouya, but going anywhere near Nekozawa could be almost fatal.
"Do I not get any say in this matter?" Kyouya asked, a hint of annoyance in his voice
"No." the twins stated, "but videoing this and selling copies to fangirls would earn a killing"
Kyouya thought about this for a moment. "well, we DID overspend on out fair, so we could do with the money... Fine, i'll do it, but ONLY because we need some more money. NOT because I want to."
The twins produced a high tech video camera, that was probably worth the same as several caravans.
Tamaki and Kyouya moved towards each other nervously. They were best friends, this was going to be awkward. Tamaki, being Tamaki, made the first move, uncertainly beginning to kiss Kyouya. Knowing the cameras where watching Kyouya began to kiss Tamaki just as hesitantly, like he was unsure of what he was doing. Tamaki began to kiss more passionately, knowing that he'd probably never get this oppourtunity again, for you see, Tamaki always had a bit of a soft spot for Kyouya. He hid it expertly though, knowing that if it got out he'd never be able the face the host club again. Kyouya began to kiss him just as passionatly, swept up in the kings emotion. Kyouya was always cool and calm and hid his feelings for Tamaki just as expertly. Neither of them wanted this moment to end, nor did they want the other to figure out how they felt about them. When they did eventually brake apart, the other host clubs stared at them, mouths open. They didn't know what to say. To put an end to the awkward silence Honey suddenly yelled:
"ONE, TWO, THREE"
and the game resumed. This time, it was mori's turn.
