Hey! Here's a new story!! I know I kinda keep starting them but this is the last one I swear!! I'll finish all my other ones then I'll start again!

Me- I'm sorry I'm overworking you guys!

Kyouya- Well, if you keep writing silly little stories about the Host Club, and others, then you won't have time to do much more important things, like working off your debt.

Me- I didn't know I had a debt to you Senpai?!

Kyouya- Yes, when you paired me with her (points to Emiko *see Taking Over Me*) and she destroyed my alarm clock I put that under your name. (pushes up glasses and smirks)

Me- ...oh that... I remember...

Emiko- (pops out of nowhere) I loved doing that!!!

Me- Well, how do you like your pairings, Mori?

Mori- ... ah

Me- See, Mori's appreciative!

Kyouya- Whatever... (walks away taking Emiko with him)

Emiko- Bye! See ya later!

Clumsy and loveless. Two words can explain a person so well...

'Real people don't do such things to a small, quite little girl.'

My name is Amaterasu, Akane. My hair is up in a messy bun and my fringe covers my left eye down to my perfect cheek bones. My eyes shine a bright ice blue. Some say they can freeze a thousand men ready for battle. I can sing like a ghost, soft yet powerful. I'm 5" 3' and 86.4 pounds.

I'm sitting outside the Third Music Room against my will and I don't say anything, I almost never do.

My friends dragged me here to meet their beautiful Tamaki. It's 2:59 and even I'm getting impatient.

The doors open and rose petals fly our way.I cover my eyes when a bright light comes. I peek see seniors fall, top of their class, and they aren't smart enough to cover their eyes?

'Dumb brods...'

I remove my hand from my face and open my eyes. I look about the room, my so called 'friends' had already abandoned me and I was left to fend for myself in my own Wonderland.

I walked to a boy with a black notebook and glasses. I tapped his shoulder and he turned with a smile.

"Hello. My name is Kyouya Ootori. Do you have an appointment?"

I shook my head.

"Well, can I make one for you?"

I shook my head again.

"What can I do for you?"

I shook my head again looking like a mute idiot.

"Well, can I help you in anyway? I am the Host Club Manager."

"No, but thank you Ootori-san." I back-tracked what he said and my eyes shot wide open.

'Did he just say 'HOST CLUB'?'

I turned and walked to the door. I tried to get out of there as fast as I could.

I go to where my hands touched the handle, but I felt like someone was watching me very intently so I turned to see a little boy staring at me and tears falling.

"What's wrong, hun?"

"Takashi, took all of my cake away just 'cause I got a tooth ache." I pulled him in a hug and stood as he wrapped his legs around my waist. I rubbed his back and rocked back and forth lulling him to sleep.

"Eh?" I felt a hand on my shoulder so I turned and see another blue blazer in the room. I slowly look up matching my icy blues with his dark greys. This giant in front of me just stares down at me like I'm a filthy mutt.

"Give him here. I'll lay him down."

'What do you know the giant speaks! And not very nicely either.'

"I don't want to wake him. I'll lay him down." I turned from the boy and walked to the Ootori boy.

I got to Ootori-san and told him the problem. He looked like I was a hero of some sort and told me I could put 'Hunny' in the back room in a bed.

I walked in the door that Ootori-san held open for me. I pulled the covers and unraveled his hands from my neck. He dropped in the bed and I pulled the pink covers over him. I turned to walk out of the room but his stopped by yet another one of these 'Hosts'. This one was shorter than me, but not by much. He had brown hair and huge brown eyes, they were a simple brown, yet a magnificent shade.

'If only I had my sketchbook...'

"Hi, I'm Haruhi. I was just wondering how you talked to Mori-senpai like that? Don't you think he's a little scary?"

"What do you mean, that tall guy? I just told him that I didn't want to wake Hunny. But he didn't need to talk to me like that. I mean, did you hear him. 'Give him here. I'll lay him down.' He was so rude!" I stretched out my hand. "Hi, I'm Amaterasu, Akane. It's nice to meet you Haruhi." He looked at my hand like it was diseased. I whipped my hand up behind my head and rubbed my neck.

"Oh right you guys don't shake here in Japan, do you?"

"No, I suppose we don't."

"Well, it was nice meeting you Haruhi." I bowed and walked away from the small boy and out of the back room. I waved to Ootori-san and walked out of the Host room.

'I hope I never go there again.'I pulled my bun tighter and walked faster to my waiting driver. Joey is 5 years older than me and is taller but way less mature than me. I thought it best to have someone younger driving me around instead of some old geezer my mother picked out for me. I've known Joey since I was five and I really like having him around. He's really nice and lots of fun. He's kinda like an older brother to me but he still has that aura or protection over me, he hates seeing me hurt. One time when I was about 10 I was riding my bike alone and it started to rain and the thunder was coming. I tried to take a short cut Joey showed me but some teenagers came around and told me this was their block and when I tried to leave they punched and kicked me until I couldn't move. Hours later Joey came and took me home, he left me with my mother and tracked the teens down and punched their faces in. When he came home he was covered in blood but all I could do was cry in his arms. Everyday after that I can't even look at a bike and I'm terrified of thunder.

"Hey, Joey! How was your day?" I gave Joey a high five and jumped in the passenger seat. He jogged around the front and got in and started the car.

"Perfect. How was your day Akane?"

"Weird I met a few new people, but they were mostly all nice. That one. Takashi. He wasn't... he... he meant well but the way he talked to me was rude and he looked at me like I was trash." I felt my eyes water. I stopped talking and so did Joey. He understood, no one got that.

We got to the house and I jumped out of the car and ran to my room. At the top of the stairs, last room on the left. I walked in and slammed the door

"How dare he make me cry in front of Joey! Two sentences and he has me crying!" I throw my backpack on my bed. I walk into my bathroom and start the shower. The hot water pours from the shower head as I pull my long hair free, letting it fall to my waist. I try to remove my awful yellow dress and stockings, but the zipper got caught in my hair. I moved the zipper up and down trying to free my black locks from the evil dress. I walk out of the bathroom in my bedroom to the hall. I yell for my mother but no one answers. I yell for Joey and he comes jogging up the stairs.

"Joey, um... my hair..." I turn around and he helps my hair free. He puts it up again and pulls the zipper down a couple more inches. I turn around and he puts a hand on my cheek. His eyes close and he leans in to my face. He stops and waits for me to close the gap between us but I put my hand on his and remove it from my face. He opens his eyes and kisses my forehead and walks away.

I close my door and take off my uniform and walk into my bathroom in my undergarments. I walk in my bathroom and remove the rest of my clothing. I open the second drawer under the sink on the left side and grab an over used crimson stained razor. I walk in the shower, stunned from the hot water and put the razor on the ledge and grab my pomegranate scented shampoo and lathered my hair. I rinsed and grabbed the razor again and sat down it the shower leaning away from the water. I placed it to my wrist and repeatedly swiped it across my bleeding arm. Numbness overcame my pain. Everything in my life seemed to disappear. My thoughts swayed and my head spun. I looked down at the damage and found three large cuts and seven or eight rather small ones.

I get out and grab a towel. Water and tears cover my face. My eyes are red and my head is throbbing. I wrap the towel around my body and get my kit to cover my cuts.

Hours later I finished my homework so I go down stairs and find Takashi, Hunny, and Joey in my living room. I turn and try so walk back upstairs because of my attire; an over-sized T-shirt that has a big sun on it with sunglasses and it's saying "Hey if you were a couple thousand degrees you be wearing sunglasses too!", that comes down mid-thigh and short-shorts that can't be seen under my tee, and a wrapped up arm. My hair was down and still a little damp.

"Hey, Akane! Come down here and meet these guys!" I turn and smile while I think of ways to kill Joey later.

"I have homework and I really don't know why I walked down here in the first place." Joey stood.

"Now, come down here and meet our guests or I'll tie you up and throw you in the cellar!" He'll do it I know it. I slowly walk down the stairs and into the living room. I sit next to Joey and cross my legs.

"Hi." I tried not to make eye contact with either of them so I messed with my bandages.

"So. I obviously didn't invite these nice boys over for nothing. I just want to know what happened today." I opened my mouth but Joey put his hand over it.

"So, what happened?" He looked at Takashi, "Akane said something about you and then she broke down crying." I looked over to Takashi and he returned the stare.

I closed my eyes and dug my nails in Joey hand and he instantly let me go. I stood closing my eyes.

"You can go I'm sorry for the inconvenience." I felt tears come but my eyes were sealed shut. I heard the door open and slowly close.

I turned to Joey and I slapped him as hard as I could.

"You can't fight my battle for me anymore Joey! I need to fight for myself! You can't protect me and love me at the same time! So pick one or leave! No, just leave and never ever come back! I hate you!"

I turned and saw that they were still here. I ran upstairs into my room and ripped the bandages off my arm leaving pieces of gauze in the hallway like a bread trail and started scratching my wrist. I sat on my bed and rocked back and forth, feeling everything I deserve. I fall back on my bed and started to black out.

I heard the door open and then felt strong arms pick me up and then I slowly drifted into a deep slumber.
