Chapter 2 - The Job Of a High School Host

'Fuck, Fuck, Fuck' I thought running as fast as I could along the corridors of my school Ouran Academy. 'I'm never gonna hear the end of it if I show up late.'

Every muscle in my body was moving as fast as it could to the club room which was my destination, Skidding to stop myself colliding with the door when I got near it. Feeling my body shudder as I regained my lost breath and after a moment or so I sorted my wig , grabbed the handle and opened the door, peering as slowly as possible inside. As you know last time I was blinded by flying rose petals so I have reason to be cautious.

But this time however the place was decked out as a tropical paradise.

'Where the hell am I? Its so amazing!'

It was beautiful, I always saw things like this in my dreams. The lushes green plants, the bright but subtle tropical flowers, the breath taking wildlife that for some reason seemed to be here aswell, it captivated and amazed me. And I have to admit. I kinda really liked it. But I wasn't going to admit that to the club, whom I saw after entering the room were dressed up in clothes tropical enough that I believe they must have come with all of this.

'Dad I hope you can see this from heaven. (AN: I am going to start having Hisoka speak like this as if she was speaking to her dad at times in the story. I think it might show some more of Hisoka's emotions and the reasons behind what she does.) This club. The one I was forced to join and I hate to admit I am enjoying. They are crazy!'

I felt as though my point was proven when a pecan I think hopped out of a tree and decided it would be nice to rest in my hair.

"So then Hisoka..." The twins said to me and my gaze was directed to them "You finally decided to show up. Your so late." They concluded and I glared at them.

"Yeh." I agreed "And you all seemed to have failed to notice that it still early spring." I picked the bird up from off my head and knelt down and placed it down next to me on the floor.

"But Hisoka..." Tamaki informed me from behind my back somewhere "... Huddling under a kotatsu table, fearing the cold is nonsense. And besides the heating system we have is the best."

'Yeh I have to agree with that dad. They kind of do.'

I sighed and stood up and was about to wonder off when Kyoya spoke to me whilst writing in his black book.

"Do you have a problem with the way we run our club, Hisoka?" He asked and I shook my head. I sure he knew my response but that didn't stop him from carrying on "Be careful what you say. You owe us 8 million yen, remember?"

I glared at him and he looked at me with a smile on his face.

'Well dad.' I thought 'That guy is Kyoya Ootori and he sure as hell love ta mess we' me. Whether intentional or not.'

And here interrupted Tamaki. He had a very bad habit of interrupting my train of thought...As did all the hosts actually but he's the worst.

"Gentlemen don't bundle up in bulky clothing. It may be a chilly early spring out there in the real world, but here at the club we want to surprise our chilly little kittens with a warm tropical paradise."

'Good idea' I tensed, as he placed his arm over my shoulders. Obviously forgetting that I can't stand being touched.

" Oh yes." He droned waving one arm in the air, gesturing at everything around us "We've turned this place into nirvana, a balmy tropical island of everlasting summer."

"Gee, thats rich." I told him, being able to move again "Because all I feel is a massive chill right now."

"What heartlessness. Even with my lustrous skin shining like brilliant ivory, exposed by my Balinese king outfit, I'm no more than a slave before my goddess. I kneel before you and swear my loyalty."

Picking up empty glasses and placing them on a tray, I watched as Tamaki woed the girls he was currently hosting, one of his hands bringing one girls face close to his as he did so leaving the girls to sigh his name before abruptly changing subject.

" Oh yes. I almost forgot to mention to you, ladies." The girls attention was focused on him once again instantly "Next week, the Ouran host club is sponsoring a party."

That caught my interest. 'A party, Gee dad. I didn't know that.' I walked over to Hikaru and Kaoru who were currently informing their guests of the party aswell. Knowing nothing about it I listened in.

"What kind of party is it going to be?" a guest of theirs asked "Is it going to be formal?"

"Yes," Hikaru replied to her question "...in fact we've rented the school's largest hall."

"It's a perfect place for dancing." Kaoru finished and suddenly his face was grabbed by Hikaru who brought it up close to his. (I like the twins well enough but their host act makes me sick.) "But I really wanted to spend some alone time with you, Kaoru." Hikaru whispered to his twin and saw Kaoru blush slightly " Don't be upset, Hikaru." He whispered back sadly "I know exactly how you feel."

Their guests went totally fangirl on them at that point (For future reference 'fangirl mode' includes the squeals, shouts and other annoying noises that our guests make at times like this.)

'So dad' I laughed in my mind, walking over to a drinks bar that had been set up and placed my tray down before turning to face the guests of the twins who still hadn't stopped fangirling. 'Bet your glad that I'm not fangirl like that. I don't know what you would have done if I was.' I sighed "The guests seem to be so much more worked up than usual."

Of course not realizing that I had said that out loud, I almost jumped when Kyoya appeared beside me writing all the while.

"Showing some skin proves popular with the ladies."

I looked at Kyoya. I agreed with that statement.

'I mean even I find myself glancing at the hosts more than I normally would. Especially him...'

To distract myself from my thoughts I picked up a drink up and had some of this tropical juice that everyone had been having myself. It tasted good. "So..." I asked "Were you the one who came up we' this tropical paradise idea?"

"I have no decision-making authority." He told me and I took another drink from my glass "All the club's policies have been laid out by the club's king, Tamaki." I glanced at him and he stopped writing to push his glasses up his nose.

"But I guess there's no harm in admitting to casually slipping a Bali photo book onto his desk." He admitted with a smile that almost made me smile aswell (You know what they say. Smiles are contagious. Most of all when they come from good looking guys...)

'Oh God no!' I thought suddenly 'Please don't tell me I'm attracted to this guy!'

I realized I had zoned out again when i relised something. Kyoya had just confirmed what i had thought all along. He's the real brains behind this operation. I was right.

I glanced at him yet again and I knew instantly. Kyoya was just as cunning, smart, sly and sneaky as the snake slithering up the tree behind him.

'yet for some reason...I find that rather sexy, It seems to work with him. I don't see why I thought anything else. You can see the cunning in his eyes.(Not that I've been looking in his eyes or anything.)...God I have to stop this'

And there you have it. I sighed (notice that sighing is kind of my thing) and walked over to cater myself to the whims of my guests that had sat down at my table, ready for my to whisk them to the worlds in their dreams.

"Um...Hisoka."

I turned my attention too of my regulars who were sitting opposite me with drinks infront of them.

"Yes?" I asked her kindly with a small smile on my face "Are you going to wear a tropical outfit like the other boys?"

I thought back to earlier, Tamaki had tried to dress me up as a Balinese queen but I instantly told him no.

"..."

"I just don't think it's appropriate to wear anything but early spring attire in early spring, you know?" I told them, that being the lamest excuse I could come up with though they seemed to by it so I played with a piece of my hair/wig and they lost all interest soon enough.

"I think thats great..." One of the girls announced "I hope we're lucky enough that the cherry blossoms are in full bloom on the night of the party."

'Yeh so do I. It would be the perfect touch.'

"The two of us dancing among the cherry blossoms. It's so dreamy." Another one sighed and I fought the urge to sigh at the thought too. 'It would be nice for them if the blossoms were in bloom. Sakura blossoms have always been stunning to me, and have inspired many of my drawings and writing before.'

"You know, ladies." I told them softly and they looked at me with their eyes sparkling "I think it's so amazingly cute when you dream like that. I reminds me of how I see your beauty in my own dreams..." I played around with more strands of my hair for effect.

I saw small blushes on the guests faces as I smiled at them and turned when I heard someone address me.

" Excuse me." The voice was kind and soft. I turned to face where the voice had come from and saw a girl with chin length dark brown hair and kind brown eyes looking at me from where she was standing. " I hate to disturb, but I think it's time for the hosts to switch clients."

'Good point.'

"Oh, I'm sorry." I told her in a sincer voice. I picked up my schedule and looked at it, trying to find her name. "You must be my next appointment, Miss..."

"My name is Kanako, Kanako Kasugazaki." She informed me and I nodded, she used her fingers to reach underneath my chin and bring my face up to look at hers. I managed not to flinch or freeze at the sudden contact, as it would seem highly rude.

"You're even cuter than I expected." She mused.

'I am, well thats a suprise. I wonder just what she was expecting from the dreamer type.

"I've decided. From now on, you're going to be my new favorite host, Hisoka."

New favourite host?

Somewhere behind me I heard Tamaki freaking out but I paid him no heed and smiled my dreamer smile at Kanako. She smiled too and dropped her hand, secretly relived. Not because of her but from my fear of contact in general.

I noticed that my 3 regulars had vanished somewhere and she took an empty seat next to me.

"Welcome then. Kanako." I told her brightly, my act perfect (In truth I actually enjoyed the host club so my good mood wasn't so much of an act for a change.) and took her hands in mine. "I welcome you to my dreamers paradise." I gestured around at the plants and flowers around us. "...and you how you will enjoy your time here, as only an angel of my dreams would." I smiled my cute dreamer smile at her and she smiled too.

'What can I say. I enjoy hosting.'

I wanted to laugh slightly.

After the guests were gone, everything had been cleared away to God knows where and for reasons unknown to me Tamaki was currently sitting in his 'corner of despair' eating Ramen I had had in my bag earlier (I don't want to know where he got it from), While the rest of us were crowed round Kyoya while we planned for our party.

"Hey boss, why don't you stop eating that commoner's ramen and come over here to help us with the party planning?" Hikaru called over to him, (For the record I can tell the twins apart. I have had practice, I have two younger totally identical twin brothers so I always knew.) Hikaru got no response so Kaoru piped in "Does it really bother you that princess Kasuga has taken a liking to Hisoka here?"

"He shouldn't be surprised..." Kyoya chimed in and I looked over at him, he hadn't even looked up from typing on his laptop "She's had the illness for a while now, hasn't she?"

'What illness do you think he's talking about dad?'

"Illness?" I questioned and the twins came up behind Kyoya.

"She's got the host hopping disease." Hikaru informed me and I frowned. That didn't help. Neither did Kaoru's explanation "AKA never-the-same-boy-twice disease."

Bit better but not much. I glanced at Kyoya who looked at me, still typing and decided to elaborate me.

"Usually, our customers choose a favorite host and see them regularly. However, princess Kanako tends to change her favorites on a regular basis."

'So thats why he's depressed. Was she with him before or something?'

As if reading my mind Hunni appeared beside me with Usa-Chan and answered my question.

"That's right. 'Cause before she chose you, she was with Tama-chan."

I deadpanned. "Your sayin' he's jealous 'cause I took her from him."

"Shut Up! I couldn't care less!"

Tamaki leaving his 'corner of despair' ran over and began shouting in my face, while my face just remained indifferent.

"I'm running out of patience." He declared and I sighed.

'Whats he out of patience with now?, There always so much choice.'

"Hisoka, it's time you started dressing like a girl." He commanded pointing at me. I sighed again and rested my head on the table.

"I don't understand how you could be so popular with the ladies, when you yourself are a lady. No one in the entire school knows the truth except for those of us here."

"Yeh!" I heard Hikaru agree to Tamaki's statement "she opted out of taking gym classes."

"And the attendance numbers are all mixed together so no one can tell." Karou added. At this point I was lightly hitting my head off the table in exasperation. I saw Kyoya and Mori glance at me. Hunni was too busy watching the insanity in front of us.

"That's enough, Hisoka." Tamaki yelled at me and I heard rummaging but didn't stop hitting my head off the table.

"Now you listen to Daddy."

'Yeh, no thanks!'

"Daddy wants you to go back to the way you were."

I sighed and pulled my wig off, letting my hair fall toward the floor. It stopping just below the seat of the chair. 'You want me to go back to how I was before, not possible. I carry too many mental and physical scars...Wait. He can't know that. So what the hell is he talking about?..'

I got my answer when I looked up. Right infront of me was a massive picture of me from before I wore an eyepatch. That was from around the time I was 12 years old.

I looked so different back then. My midnight hair only reached my mid-back and I didn't have a fringe that covered my left eye. What surprised me most was when I looked at my eyes in the picture. They were still the same silver they were now but there were two eyes instead of one silver and one covered one.

Once I got over my shock all I felt was anger. 'Where the fuck did they get that picture?'

I can't remember feeling angry like this in quite a while. I know it would seem like I was getting angry over such a little thing to the hosts but that wasn't the case. Seeing any picture of myself from the past brought up memories I would much rather keep buried.

"Where the hell did you get a picture of me like that?" I yelled at Tamaki who was currently in my face at the moment. He seemed taken slightly aback by my outburst. It certainly was different than my normal, passive and uninterested character. He seemed to get over it quickly and within seconds the picture was hung up on a wall with everyone but me surrounding it. 'The idiot' on the other hand seemed to be sobbing beneath the photo in sadness.

I sighed again and felt my anger disappear. I made a point of trying not to stay angry at anyone for long. The repercussions weren't always pretty.

"The more I look at this picture, the more amazed I am." Hikaru admitted but then his tone changed to one of curiosity. I stood up and began to walk over to the hosts but stopped when I heard his next question. "How could this beauty possibly become what it was when it walked in here for the first time?"

I noticed everyone was looking at me in expectance for me to answer that question.

"Well..." I told them "...Alot of stuff happened after that picture was taken and I had next to no clean washing when you guys first met me so I ended up wearing dark clothes that were far to big for me." I shrugged at their gazed and just continued "I wear what I want and don't care what others think about it so it didn't matter a fuck ta me if I looked like a dude when I walked in here."

Of course this caused Tamaki to go into over-react mode.

"Girls should never refer to themselves as a dude." He yelled in my face and I fought the urge to hit him.

"Momma," He yelled at supposedly empty air "Hisoka's using those dirty boy words again and whats worse, she's swearing. Why is she so foul mouthed?"

"I'm sorry, but who is momma?" Karou asked looking at each of the hosts waiting for an answer.

"Based on club position" Kyoya informed everyone "...I assume it's me."

'Dad. You have to admit, that is funny.'

I snorted, trying to hold back laughter, but it was hard. I glanced over at Kyoya and saw him glaring at me. It made it harder for me to hold back laughter now.

"Hate to change the subject, but do you have formal dancing experience?" Hikaru interrupted and I was thankful for the interruption, I don't think I would have lasted much longer.

"You'll need it at the party."

I thought about it. I did have some formal dancing experience (I used to dance with my dad)... but even so. An evening party, I can't do evenings. I have my siblings to sort out.

"Uh...I..." I stammered causing everyone to look at me. "...I can't make it to evening events 'cause I have stuff to do at home. But even so, the party doesn't have anything to do with my quota, right? I can't really make time to go to events, so if I could be excused..." I waved my hand infront of my face as I said this, as if trying to brush the conversation of this party away.

"Definitely not." Tamaki interrupted and I glowered at him "A refined gentleman must know how to dance."

'One i'm not a guy and two I already know how to dance.'

"If you want to live the life of a host that badly, you're going to have to show us how far you're willing to go, Hisoka."

'Where is this going?'

"I order you to master dancing the waltz in one week and you will demonstrate it for us at the party."

'Fuck!'

"Or I'll tell the entire school that you're a girl and knock you back down to an errand boy."

'Your kiddin', your fuckin' kidden'.'

"I already know how to dance you know." I said but unfortunately no-one seemed to hear me. Kyoya did seem to smirk at me when I said that though.

'Ugh...' I thought to myself '...I'm doomed.'

"Thank you so much for allowing me to practice with you. I really appreciate it." I smiled at Kanako. She smiled back as I served her tea after she sat sown at a table we had prepared for her. After doing so I stepped a step or so to let her have some space while she had her tea.

"Oh, no problem. I heard that you're not seeing any customers today so that you can practice dancing." She explained (I really seemed to like her, she seemed kind and yet at the same time I got the feeling she was trying to play me. It was rather interesting.)

"I'm glad I got to spend this time alone with you." She continued looking up into my eye. She was really pretty and I know it seemed strange for me to say that but she was.

"Well...Uh..." I stammered to her previous statement.

"Oh, my!" She exclaimed happily, interrupting me "This is a new tea set, isn't it? It's Ginori."

'Da Fuck?'

I noticed that Kyoya had appeared from no-where yet again and pretty much told me what I wanted to know. All whilst speaking to Kanako. (It was rather handy)

" You have a keen eye, mademoiselle." He complimented her "In fact, we just received them yesterday. We decided that it was about time for the club to upgrade its tea sets."

'Well you probably did anyway.' I mentally snickered.

"I see." Kanako responded gazing into the teacup "What a pretty color. Lovely."

I watched her. Her whole aura seemed to change the moment she picked up that cup. Her expressions softened, her eyes almost losing themselves in the depths of the dark liquid. She seemed so content. So happy.

"You must really be into table wear, huh." I said to her brightly and in truth her reaction startled me slightly. She almost seemed to go into to instant denial.

"Not really, I mean no, of course, I'm not. Whatever would give you that idea?" Her response made her much less convincing than her actions.

'What the hell, if she knows so much than why lie?'

A thought rushed through my head.

'She's hiding something and she doesn't want anyone finding out what it is. It's so much like me.'

My hand unconsciously began to reach to my left eye but I stopped myself before anyone seemed to notice.

'If she is hiding something, than she's not the only one.'

(AN: You will find out everything, all in good time.)

A voice called me out of my thoughts and I looked up at the door, Kanako seemed to recognize the voice as she seemed slightly startled when she heard it, she also then seemed to be plunged into thoughts, just as I was pulled out of them.

"Hello?" The voice announced "I'm here with the new tea cups you ordered."

"Ah, thank you very much." Kyoya thanked starting over to him "Every item that you've chosen for us has been extremely popular with the ladies. I'm quite impressed."

"Well, that's good to hear." He replied smiling and I became curious. I played with a strand of my wig and walked over to him aswell.

"So, do you sell tea sets?" I asked taking the box from him and he laughed slightly, I noticed his hair was a murky brown color and his eyes were grey. I saw his eyes linger on my eye-patch for a moment and I gave him a small smile, almost as if telling him not to ask. He took my 'advice' and went on to answer my question.

"No, I'm just a regular student. Can't you tell by the uniform?" He told me and I nodded as a response.

'I couldn't really tell sorry mate.'

A laugh came from where Kanako was sitting and I turned to her just as she spoke to me "Oh Hisoka, you're so funny. I can't blame you for not knowing."

'Not knowing what?'

"After all, he doesn't really look like an heir to a first-class company." She finished and I seemed taken aback.

"First-class company?" I quizzed and if on que Kyoya spoke up again. (It really was handy when he did that)

"His family's business, the Suzushima trading company, deals primarily in the importing of tableware. They currently have the top market share in the country."

'Hell. Thats impressive!'

"So whenever something exceptional comes in, we've asked him to send it our way." I glanced at Kanako, she was staring at Suzushima.

'Do they know each other or somethin'?'

"He has a great eye for fine china. Don't you, Suzushima?"

Kyoya obviously directed that last part at Suzushima because he glanced at Kyoya and seemed to become bashful at the sudden compliment.

"You think? I've still got a lot to learn, but thank you."

I gazed at Kanako. She seemed sad now. It was so different from just a few minutes ago, and it all started when Suzushima walked in. I get the feeling that if she is hiding something than...it all has something to do with that guy.

I didn't notice right away when Suzushima left but after he did I walked up to Kanako and stole a quick glance at her face.

'I was right dad, she does seem depressed.'

"You know." I said to her quietly "It appears that you two are kinda close."

At this Kanako jumped out of her skin and turned around to face me, I noticed she was shaking. "Don't be ridiculous. We hardly know each other."

'The denial again. This really is suspicious right dad?'

What makes you say that, Hisoka?" She continued and the stood up, practily running out the door.

"Now, if you'll please excuse me. Take care."

"Uh..." I paused for a moment before regaining my sense "...What the fuck just happened?"

"Momma!" Tamaki whined "Hisoka's swearing again!"

Kyoya glanced at me and sighed "I thought I told you to stop that, Tamaki does react badly to it as you have discovered."

I saw Tamaki muttering something about 'how a lady should speak' but I disregarded it and turned back to Kyoya.

"I also thought I told you that i'm no' gonna go round change the way I've spoken all my life. I put enough effort in when I'm around our guests." I shrugged when I said this and I got the feeling that Kyoya was going to say something. Before a call from behind me interrupted him of course.

"Hiso-chan!"

It was Hunni. He began jumping around me and told me something I found interesting.

"Guess what? They do know each other. Suzushima is Kasuga-chan's fiancé."

'What? That must explain why she seemed to change when he entered the room. But why become so sad? Is there something going on that has changed the relationship the two of them should have...I mean if they are engaged than they should be happy when they see each other right. There's obviously something going on behind the scenes that only the two of them know about. But just what is it?'

I managed to regain my sense of awareness to hear Tamaki announce something to the rest of the club.

"All right, everyone." He called focusing everyones attention onto him "We'll have to work on our strategy."

'Gee, How much did I miss by zonin' out?'

"Which one?" The host club asked to Tamaki's announcement...to which he responded.

"Men, it is our responsibility as members of the elite Ouran host club to make every girl happy."

'Oh no!, what now'

"It is so good to see you here tonight, my little lambs. The Ouran host club would like to bid you welcome."

With these words the lights in the room came on showing all us host and our guests to the rest of the world. The music started and I was able to listen to the beautiful melody for about 2 seconds before the guests clapping started.

'Dad. I know you can see this from heaven. Now please save me! Please!'

My plese went unheard and I regained my sense of awareness to hear Kyoya announcing something to the girls.

"Based on her dancing skills, one lucky young lady will be chosen as tonight's queen. The queen's reward will be a passionate kiss on the cheek from our king."

I glanced up at our 'king' who was saying something to the girls. In truth because he was above us I was surprised they could hear him.

"Good luck to you, my darlings."

At this all the girls in the room (Minus me) went into fangirl mode. I groaned and fought the urge to hit my head off something.

"Oh come on Hisoka..." The twins drawled coming up behind me "...Actually show some enthusiasm. It is a party after all."

'Yeh its a Party. Why do you think I'm this unenthusiastic?'

"You know guys. I like your idea of a party for the girls but even so. It's a party so I can't help but be unenthusiastic."

"And whys that?" Hikaru and Kaoru asked me in unison and I sighed. For guys that could come up with such a good idea for helping to get two people together they sure could forget something that should have been perfectly obvious.

"Oh for gods sake. My no physical contact thing remember."

"Ah!" The twins commented, obviously remembering now that I can't very well touch people without freezing. If I touch them first then it's okay but these girls liked to grab you first so odds weren't very well in my favor.

"Well..." Kyoya said obviously thinking about this "...If Kanako arrives sooner rather than later, then you won't have to worry too much about anyone having to touch you." I looked over at him, and of course he was writing on a clipboard. (Seriously. Is that thing attached to his arm or somethin'?)

'Does he ever stop that. But in truth he does have a point, I sure as hell hope Kanako arrives sooner rather than later.'

I sighed and began to walk down the stairs. "Might aswell start tending to ours guests wills then." I called to the hosts giving them a slight wave as I said this.

'This is a train wreck!'

I am happy to admit that none of my guests have had the courage to ask me to dance so far. At this moment in time they were currently hiding behind the pillar I was leaning on and at the same time were building up the courage for a dance.

"Um..." They began but disappeared as soon as Kanako arrived (Thank you, you have no idea how good your timing was.)

"Hello, Hisoka. I've been looking all over for you." I looked at her, she was dressed very nicely in a blue dress with a while shall fastened around her body (AN: In case you haven't already noticed, I can not describe clothes. It is beyond me.)

"Do you think maybe I could have the next dance?" She asked. I gave her my host smile and nodded

"Course ya can." I responded and took her hand, we then began to walk to the dance floor. Thankfully as I took her hand I didn't freeze.

I kept my eye contact on her and she did the same. We were just about to begin our dance when I felt Mori and Hunni grab me and rush me out of the room.

By the time we were out of the main hall where all the guests were I was already fighting against them.

"Let me go!" I demanded, squirming as I shouted at them, and without noticing that we had already arrived in the room where the rest of the hosts when I heard one of the twins comment on the fact that I was finally here. Upon being placed on the ground I was abit out of it, I was still trying to get over the fact that I had been grabbed so forcefully. "Uh...uh..." I stammered before falling to the floor.

"Hisoka!" I heard the twins cry out. I rolled onto my back and looked up at them, Hikaru, Kaoru, Kyoya, Hunni and Mori we looking down at me.

"I told ya'll this would happen. It's your own fault so suck it up." I groaned and after being able to move again sat up slowly.

"Sorry Hiso-chan." Hunni apologized with small tears in his eyes. I smiled at him and the tears disappeared. "No biggie." I replied being pulled up by Mori by the hand "It could of been worse, believe me. Once I stopped breathing for about a minute out of shock so I'm okay as long as I find my sense of stability."

Hunni nodded and jumped up onto Mori's shoulders. Before I could do anything else I was handed a parcel and ushered into a changing room to get changed into it.

I sighed and looked at the package, as long as it's not pink no-one will die.

"This had better not be pink, or someones gonna die!" I called out at them whilst I took my wig off, letting my hair fall.

"Just open it and see for yourself." Hikaru called to me and I sighed again, opening it. Thankfully it wasn't pink.

"Thank god." I muttered undressing and then putting it on.

"A little accident towards the end of night would be quite thrilling." I heard Kyoya say to the other hosts. 'He has something up his sleeve doesn't he?'

"And remember, Hisoka," He told me "...there are only 20 minutes remaining before the party reaches its climax. Suzushima is already waiting for you in the classroom across the hall."

"Yeh I know." I muttered but didn't say anything else. I was too busy concentrating on the fact that I hated dresses. This one was okay but the bust was abit to tight, seeing as the guys hadn't really seen me with my chest unbound more than once I couldn't really blame them, I was just thankful they hadn't given me anything pink.

I stood up after putting on the black heels that had been left outside the curtain and drew the curtain back.

The dress I was wearing was black and hung to my figure, it jutted out abit at the waist and had a belt with a silver buckle at my waist. The dress also reached about 10 centimeters above my knees.

'I get the feeling it was meant to be longer and less tight around my breasts...but what can ya do now?'

The hosts reactions were strange. Mori remained as emotionless as normal. Hunni was gazing at me as if I was the most beautiful thing in the world (In a cute way). The twins were staring at the complete change that I had under gone and the fact the dress was tighter than I would have liked. Kyoya was looking at me in a different way altogether, you could see the slight suprise in my 'transformation' but it was different. His eyes showed something and I knew he was calculating something that would involve me, it wasn't the normal calculating though it was different and I couldn't place how so.

Trying to place these thoughts aside I tried to attack the twins when they came near me with make-up.

'Dad! The dress is one thing. Make-up is whole different story. I refuse to let it near me!'

"No way, No way." I told them backing away as they advanced, make-up at the ready "I don't do make-up. Ever, I don't let people anywhere near my face."

I began to run (I can run in heels. I don't like wearing them but even so) around the room with the twins from hell running close after. I heard Hunni telling Hikaru and Kaoru to stop chasing me and Kyoya sigh.

"Hisoka. With such a short window of time until the party reaches it's climax we really don't need you wasting time here."

I stopped and frowned at him. The twins narrowly avoiding crashing into me.

"I'll stop wasting time" I told him in a sarcastic tone "...when they stop trying to put make up on me. I can't put up with people touching my face." With those words I moved my side fringe out of the way and pointed at my eyepatch. "Don't even bother saying it's stupid because I have a very good reason for them not to."

Everyone in the room seemed slightly taken a back by my words. I had never even mentioned my eyepatch and that quite obviously to them a subject they had silently swore not to bring up.

Kyoya seemed to think it over for a minute and then sighed. "Hikaru, Kaoru leave her alone." They nodded and stepped away from me. "Hisoka, just get to Suzushima, already."

I nodded, perfectly content with this arrangement and reached the door just as it burst open, narrowly avoiding Tamaki by ducking under his arm and walking away.

"See you later!" I laughed waving slightly at them. They all then came out into the hallway and I swear I could hear Tamaki saying something about how beautiful his daughter looked.

'Idiot!'

I reached the door and moved my fringe so it was completely infront of and covering the left side of my face. The eyepatch was kind of a big give away to who I was.

After doing this I slowly opened the door.

I walked in slowly, Suzushima was just the same as he was the last time I saw him only this time he had a look of suprise on his face.

"You are the one who wrote this letter?" He asked as I walked up to him, trying and surprising staying upright in my heels "You're totally different from what I imagined."

'What do you mean?'

"Letter?" I questioned and he handed it to me, I opened it up and began to read. Before instantly wish I had a lighter so I could burn the paper. It read...

I'm in love-love.

From the first time I saw you, I've been head over heels in love. Tee-hee-hee.

It's like my heart is stuck in a never-ending typhoon.

All these feelings of love keep whipping around in my heart like the breaking waves.

When the typhoon's rising water's come, I want to rendezvous with you on Noah's Ark!

I do! I do!

'When I find who wrote such a fuckin' stupid letter I am going to kill them. I mean the letter is written blasted PINK!, but also because of that I already have my ideas of who wrote it. (Twins your dead!')

"Excuse me." Suzushima addressed me and I looked up at him "Have we met somewhere before?"

'Oh shit! Quick go into denial!'

"No!" I cried out waving my hands franticly infront of my face "This is the first time I've ever talked to you."

'God that was such a shit lie.' I pulled more hair to my left eye and looked at him. He was looking at the ground, away from me.

"I'm sorry. I'm flattered by your letter but I'm afraid I don't feel the same way." Suzushima apologized and in truth, in a way he actually sounded sincere "You see..." He explained "... another girl already has my heart."

'God. And now the lies start pouring out.'

"Oh." I replied trying to sound disappointed "I didn't know you had a girlfriend."

"Unfortunately, she is not my girlfriend. In fact, I think she's completely over me." He did actually sound upset by this and gazed out the window and I felt sorry for him "In all honesty, she'd be happier with someone more self-confident than me."

'In my opinion, she seems to really like you so all you need to do is actually tell her that you like, even love her.'

"That's why I decided I need to change." Suzushima continued and I listened, I wanted to help them. They really deserved each other "I want to see the world, hopefully become a better man. I know it's selfish, but I wonder if she'll wait for me.

"Yeh." I agreed "That is pretty selfish." At my words it seemed like someone stabbed him but the way he flinched 'Not good!'

"But maybe she would wait for you." I told him and he looked at me in something almost like new hope at my words "You'll never know if you don't tell her how you feel. You obviously have strong feelings for her, so why not go head and talk to her?"

I paused before continuing, trying to find a good way to word my next line "I think..." I admitted "...once you decided to change, then you've already begun your transformation."

As soon as I finished those words I heard the door open. Suzushima seemed to freeze and I turned to see why.

'Fuck!'

It was Kanako, and suddenly I felt so bad. She had on her face an expression on shock and I understood why, given what this must look like.

"Kanako..." Suzushima whispered and I saw her begin to cry (I felt like such a doosh, right now.)

"I'm so sorry." She choked out and I saw tears begin to fall down her cheeks "I didn't mean to interrupt you two. I just..." With that she ran. I didn't know where and in truth I was glad when Suzushima ran after her. They really did deserve each other. They both loved each other so deeply and it was clear to see, I wish one day I will love someone that much and that they will love me enough to run after me.

I sighed and walked out into the corridor.

"It's our responsibility..." I began happily "...as members of the elite Ouran host club to make every girl happy."

"Ladies and gentlemen. It is now time for us to begin the final dance of this evening's festivities. The last waltz of the night has been chosen by the host club for this couple." Tamaki announced, gesturing Kanako and Suzushima to everyone as they walked outside to watch them.

After returning to my original clothes (Thank god) I had arrived back at the dance hall just in time to join the hosts walking outside to the balcony, to where you had a perfect view of Kanako and Suzushima.

I watched Suzushima bow to Kanako and soon after they began to dance. They were beautiful together, they moved together in perfect harmony and if you needed more proof that they were perfect together than the looks of their faces were proof enough.

"And now we'll announce the queen of the ball." Hikaru started from behind me and I had a feeling I knew who it was

"Congratulations, Princess Kanako Kasugazaki." Kaoru announced and I fought off a smile. 'So I was right.'

"And for her reward, a kiss on the cheek from the king..." Hikaru continued and I heard Tamaki say something along the lines of 'You ready?' but all that went through my head was good grief. That was until...

"Hisoka Matsumei will stand in for Tamaki."

'What da Fuck!'

"Kyoya did say that a little accident towards the end of night might make even more thrilling for everyone." The twins explained and I sighed.

'Eternally damn that Jackass to hell.'

"I can't kiss her!" I told them shaking my head at the thought, until Kyoya interrupted.

"If you do it, we'll cut your debt by one-third."

'Oh damn him. Damn him!, But then again...'

"Screw the physical contact thing, it is only just a peck on the cheek right." I said, trying to convince myself to do this, and quickly began walking down the stairs before approaching Kanako slowly.

When I reached her I saw she was just as nervous about this as I was. I gave her a quick smile and she gave me a quick one in return. Slowly I cupped her face with my hands and brought my face to hers when...

I felt something push into my back causing my lips to claim hers. It was strange, I had never kissed anyone before and in truth I was abit sad that my first kiss had been given away like this.

Within a second I jumped away from her with a blush across my face and saw she had one aswell.

'Well dad, what a strange end to such and amazing night. In truth I never imagined I'd give my first kiss to another girl...But even so, I guess this night couldn't have gone any other way.'
