Just a heads up:

Bold= English

But that's only used once here. There are two "Author's Tabs", "Author's Bookmarks", "Author's Notes" (whatever you call the little buggers) in here, too, though.

A/U's will be Bold and Underlined, like this header. ANYWHO! Enjoy~!


"Wow, we're pathetic." Sophia commented as we all stood around akwardly. I laughed loudly.

"Yeah- but hey, we're undercover spies. Who can blame us for not knowing how to say a heartfelt reply?" I said in a normal volume voice. The twins and Sophia shushed me frantically.

"Are you insane?" Blake asked incredously.

"Have you gone mental?" Drake breathed.

"You could get us discovered!" Sophia accused.

I blinked then laughed shrilly. "Guys- we're in New York. No one here cares what you say."

To prove my point, I walked up to a random buisness man and tapped his shoulder. He looked down at me questioningly. I felt the anxious gazes of my friends on me.

"Excuse me, sir," I smiled politely. "I'm a secret, undercover spy."

He blinked then chuckled, shaking his head and walking away. I swear I heard him mutter "kids these days..."

I grinned and turned to my team. "See?"

Kenji was full blown laughing while the twins and Sophia were staring at me in utter shock.

The twins recovered and leaned on my shoulders yet again. "We're really gonna miss you, Willow."

My grin shrunk a bit. "We've never been apart, come to think of it..."

Kenji looked at me thoughtfully. "Huh... you know, you're right. Seperating may be harder than we thought."

I felt my lower lip jut out. "Aw~! Why so negitive?"

Kenji laughed lightly, ruffling my hair. "Don't you go looking for trouble."

I sighed. "You know I don't go looking for trouble."

"Yeah," Drake begun. "She doesn't go looking for trouble..."

"... Trouble goes looking for her." Blake finished smoothly.

My pout intensified. Sophia broke the warm scene up.

"Sorry to interupt, guys, but Kenji- your plane is boarding."

We looked to Kenji's gate a few gates away and he sighed. "Well, see you in a few weeks." Then left to go to his gate. He gave the woman at the counter of his gate his ticket and spared us a glance, and a quick smile, before disappearing into the entrance of the gate.

I felt my heart tug to the right painfully. The twins turned to me. "Why the sad face? We'll see him again in a few weeks."

"I know..." I sighed heavily. "It's just... we've all gotten used to his book-loving, know-it-all, optomistic attitude, right?"

They nodded, the air filled with melancholy. Then Sophia smiled sadly. "My turn, I suppose."

"Don't go crazy at those Venezuelian beaches and shops- we don't want Leneorard Spy Academy to go poor and bankrupt, now, do we?"

Sophia pouted as the twins snickered. I threw an arm around her shoulder. "Aw, Soph, I'm just kidding around. But seriously- watch yourself. Don't get distracted easily, 'kay?"

She grinned and nodded. She waved to us once before turning and flitting in the opposite direction. We saw her enter her gate excitedly, her blond hair flying out behind her.

My heart tugged left.

"You do realize we're going to be leaving here in a few minutes, right Will?" The twins asked in sync.

I blinked away the oncoming tears I knew would come as my eyes stung. "Shuddap. Don't say that. Can you come to Japan with me? Please~?"

"Nope," They replied, grinning. They then saw how upset I really was. I just didn't want to be alone again. Was that a crime? The twins frowned. "H-hey, we're sorry. Don't cry. C'mon, you know we hate it when you cry! Even though you rarely cry... But still!"

I looked up in surprise. Did I really look like I was going to cry? Something hot rolled down my cheek and moistened my lips. It tasted salty.

"Oh, God," I groaned. "And I was so sure I wouldn't cry, too!"

The twins chuckled and each wrapped their arms around me. Drake wrapped his around my neck and Blake constricted his around my waist.

"So tragic!" Drake wailed dramatically.

"The three musketeers becoming brutally seperated!" Blake wailed loudly. I grinned and added my share.

"Oh~! It's just not fair!"

We all cried and wailed playfully until the twins really did have to leave me.

"Hey," Drake looked me dead in the eye, as did Blake.

"We're always going to be best friends, right?" Blake asked expectantly.

"Right? Right?" Drake backed him up.

I grinned and held up my fist. "Joined at the hip!"

We knocked fists and the twins said another heartfelt goodbye before heading to their gate. It was then I felt it. My heart tugged to the right once more, beat up and bruised. I was alone again. Only for two weeks, but my fragile heart couldn't take anymore. I looked around akwardly as I waited in front of my gate. The heat pulsed off of each bystander who jostled me as I tried to stand still. One bystander inparticular bumped into me, knocking me to the ground in that small contact. I looked up at the rude man who didn't even bother to apologize. He just stared. My breath caught and the world seemed to stop. This man looked inebrated or insane. His left eye was twitching slightly and his unshaved, stubby chin was jutting out slightly. He stood above me, twitching eyes wide and jaw tight. In a flash, he had disappeared in the crowd. I blinked and stood, brushing myself off and hearing the distant notice that my plane was boarding. I took in a breath, completely ignoring the fact my heart was still racing from that frightening encounter.

I boarded the plane, looking out the window sadly. No going back now. I was headed to Japan wether I liked it or not.

I chose not.


"Ah, Japan, what a wonderful place to be." I hummed as I sat in the back of a slim limousene. (SP??) I was currently chatting with the driver, ignoring the annoyance in his expression. "But don't you think it's weird to be here in summer? I mean, it's so unbearably hot!" When we got to my stop, the taxi driver looked relieved. I payed then waved goodbye until I couldn't see him anymore.

I turned to face the Leneorard Spy Academy of Japan. I walked through the large glass front doors and was greeted with a whole room full of the Academy's teachers.

"Willow Blume?" One came up to me, smiling sweetly.

I nodded at her and smiled back. "Yep! You got my room ready?"

The woman blinked at my unprofesional appearance but nodded. She led me to my room –which coincidentally happened to be on the top floor- and let me unpack alone. I stared out the large window that took up a whole wall, looking out at Japan. In the distance, not too far from Leneorard Academy, I saw the pompous Ouran Academy. I sighed, smiling slightly.

"Look out, Ouran, here I come!"

Looking around the room I smirked. I truly respected their ability to keep a low profile on Leneorard Academy. They dressed it up to seem like a fancy hotel. I had learned whenever someone requested a room to stay in, the Academy would simply say they were full. The Governments of each country knew about Leneorard Academy and its students and –surprisingly- kept it secret and discreet.

I looked at the clock and found surprisingly I only had a few hours until School started- it was already four thirty seven a.m.!

I shrugged, not feeling tired at all. I had two choices.

A) Wear that disgusting, vile banana-cream colored... thing.

B) Go in what I'm wearing now. (A/N: Explained in last chapter.)

I chose the latter.

I smiled and dropped myself onto the silky, crimson colored couch and relaxed into the world of my favorite book.

I read silently, smiling occasionally. As I read, I recited the words in my mind.

'The young, brave knight drew his sword, watching it gleam shamlessly in the rays of the sun. He turned his comely face to the sun, and held the beaming blade to the sun's gegenschein. The dapper prepubescent man's eyes were glossy, illuminated, as he shouted in victory to the daystar above.'

I read through a few long chapters before sighing and turning to the clock. It was nearly time to go. I had decided to walk to school –considering it was only eighteen blocks away- and knew leaving in a few minutes was only smart.

I grabbed my bookbag and slung it over my shoulder, heading out of Leneorard Academy. I was halfway there when my phone buzzed quietly. Due to my keen hearing, I noticed that and flipped it open casually.

Before speaking into the phone I giggled and murmured, "my phone went 'green, green' and I said 'yellow'!" I then spoke into the phone. "Yel- um, hello?"

"Hey, Will!" Two identicle voices chimed happily. I grinned, feeling better already.

"Hey, you two!" I replied, laughing. "What're you up to? Don't you have to go to school?"

"No~pe!" They sang giddily. I gaped.

"What!?" I shrieked, causing a few bystanders to look at me curiously. I was speaking English, so I knew they didn't understand. Unless they spoke English, too.... Ugh, whatever. "How can you not have school? That's so unfair~!"

"Why? Do you have to go to school?"

"Ugh- yes."

A pause, followed by hysterical laughter.

"Shuddap!" I pouted. Then I noticed the overly large Ouran Academy and sighed. "I'm going to school now, so don't call in the middle of class or anything. Seriously. I might get my phone taken away and you know that can't happen since this is the Academy's property."

I could almost hear the mischevious grins on their faces as they spoke slyly. "No promises~!"

I flipped the phone shut and walked through the front doors of Ouran Academy. I fearlessly walked through the student-filled halls, ignoring the glances shot my way. I stepped into classroom 1-A, and thanked God the only people in there were the teacher and one other student. I handed a few documents to the teacher –who eyed my choice of clothing- and she told me an empty seat was in front of the other student in the room.

I took the seat and smiled. I turned around to look at her. "Hey- I'm Willow Blume. Oh, wait. In Japan last names go first. I'm Blume Willow."

The student smiled and stuck out her hand. "Fujoka Haruhi."

I leaned back in my chair and sighed. "If I knew females could wear the male uniform I would've done that." I flashed a grin. "It's so much better than those ugly drapes us girls are required to wear, right?"

She stared at me with wide eyes. She blinked, blinked again, and blinked once more. She opened her mouth to reply, but a loud, ringing bell brought my attention to the door as students filed in.

A pair of red headed twins caught my attention.

Just like Drake and Blake!! I thought excitedly. But Drake and Blake have blue eyes and black hair... whatever. I'm the only one who can tell 'em apart! Twins... who would've thought, huh?

The teacher patiently recited a new student was in the class, and all eyes turned to me. I smiled and she asked me to stand and introduce myself.

Great...

I stood and looked around at everyone. "Hey, I'm Wil- ugh; I mean I'm Blume Willow."

They smiled and nodded, girls begun to gossip and –surprisingly- guys began gossipping, too. I sat back down and a hand tapped my shoulder. No- make that two hands tapped my shoulder simultaniously. I turned around and immediately broke into a grin. It was those twins from before.

"Yeah?" I asked.

The eyed me cautiously. Their voices lowered. "You know Haruhi is a girl?"

"Yep- why?" I was utterly confused. "Aren't you supposed to be able to tell the genders apart?"

The twins blinked. At the same freaking time! Just like Drake and Blake!

I giggled. "You two remind me of my best friends." Then I full blown laughed.

They looked confused.

"Nevermind," I kept smiling, though. I turned to Haruhi. "By the way, I don't mind keeping your, erm, gender a secret."

She frowned. "Why?"

"Why not?" I retorted smartly. She smiled slightly and the twins laughed.

"You should come visit our club!" The one on the right suggested. The one on the left nodded helpfully.

"I will if you tell me your names." I reasoned, grinning. They obligued.

"I am Hikaru," The one on the left stated.

The one on the right smiled. "I'm Kaoru."

I frowned, knowing the glint in their eyes. I'd seen it from Drake and Blake all the time. "No... You are liars!" I laughed. They looked at me in surprise.

"How did you know?" Haruhi asked incredously, despite the twins reasoning she was wrong. They gave in.

"Yeah- the only one who can tell us apart is Haruhi."

I grinned, winked, and tapped my right temple with my index finger, turning back to the front. I watched the teacher fumble over math problems for about an hour before the bell rang again. I went through the day like that. Introducing myself, ignoring the gossip and chatter about me (good and bad).

But something interesting happened in three of my classes. In my first class I had met the handsome Hikaru and Kaoru and Haruhi. Then, in my next class, I had met two interesting figures. One black haired, glasses wearing dude with a blonde, overly hyper friend. In my third class I met a cake loving shota Lolita and a tall, phlegmatic kendo-guy. Amazing how easily you can get to know a person in one hour- and get this! They all invited me to this "Host Club" shindig. This school sure was interesting.

I made my way down the hall quietly, and having already memorized the school's layout from a map provided, I was on my way to the Ouran High School Host Club.

As I walked through a hall in the west wing of the school, I looked around at the pictures hung on the wall. Famous people from way-back-when were in gold and copper frames. No other hallway was like that. I cocked my head to one side, deliberating wether to bring the team here or not. Keep it a secret until I'm sure about it? Tell them right away even though I don't know anything about it? Hm...

My forhead collided with a door, and I stumbled backward, but kept on my feet. I looked up at the small plaque and grinned. "Music Room #3, finally!"

I gracefully cast aside the doors and was exposed to a bright light, then a flurry of rose petals.

"Augh!" I threw my hands up to my face. When I was sure the light and the petals were gone, I lowered my hands. "Jeez...!"

"Will-chan!" A small, slightly familiar voice squeaked. I saw a flash of blond before Hunny tackled me. I giggled down at his small face.

"Hey, Hunny-Senpai." I greeted kindly. Hunny's eyes lit up.

"Hey, hey- do you want some cake? Do you?"

I smiled politely. "Maybe later, 'kay?"

"O-tay!" He spun, flitting to a small table. I saw Mori sitting there, too. When I caught his eye, I smiled, receiving a small smile in return.

"You know Hunny-Senpai?" Two people leaned on my shoulders. I heard Haruhi sigh in annoyance, knowing how it felt. But I didn't mind. "We didn't know that."

"Hello Hikaru, Kaoru," I grinned wider. "Actually, I met them two classes after you guys. Before that I met-"

"WILLOW!" An excited shriek filled the air. I had so little time to prepare for the blond mass of Tamaki glomped me and sent the twins aside. I staggered as he hugged the life out of me.

"Um- hi, Tamaki," I gagged. "I... I can't b-breathe...!"

He immediately let go, but kept that goofy grin plastered on his face.

I looked over at Kyouya and smiled. "Hello, Kyouya."

He smiled politely in return. "How are you faring at this school so far, Willow?"

"Just fine, thanks."

"You knew Kyouya-Senpai and Tono, too?" The twins asked, once more leaning on me. I nodded.

"Right after I met you guys. They were in my next class. Hunny-Senpai and Mori-Senpai were in the class after that."

"Oh~!" The twins seemed relieved.

"Why is that so important?" Suspicious as it was, I couldn't help my curious side get the better of me. And trust me; eighty five percent of my immune system is curiosity. The other fifteen percent is that useful crap like awareness and sensability and stuff.

"Because it saves us the hassle of introductions," They said in a 'no-duh!' tone.

"Right..." I nodded slowly. "So... what do you do for fun here, anyhow?"

They grinned mischeviously. "Oh... so you're like that."

I frowned. "Huh?"

The twins laughed loudly. "We're going to get along just fine~!"


I just so happen to like that ending A LOT. xD
