"Four library rooms, you would think one of them would be quiet." Haruhi sighed. "I'm starting to think that the kids only come to school to have a good time." She started to walk down the hallway in pursuit of a quiet place to study, slow enough for me to keep up with her on crutches.
"Well considering that all the kids that go to this school are rich, it is most likely that they will inherit the business that their families have. So school is pretty much a formality to them." I said. Even though it wouldn't hurt for them to study a little.
"Yeah I guess you're right."
~Time Skip~
We stood in front of the door to the abandoned music room 3. Wait, isn't there some sort of club here? Something to do with parasites or something.
"I guess this is the only place we can study in peace and quiet." Haruhi said while reaching for the door handle.
I grabbed her wrist stopping my cousin from opening the door "Wait, I heard some of the girls talking about this room. Maybe it's not as quiet as we think."
Haruhi thought about it before saying while she opened the door "Well there is only one way to find out."
When she opened the door we were blinded by rose petals.
Once I were able to see again what I saw was not what they were expecting. There was six handsome boys posed 10 feet away from the door.
Haruhi started to freak out once she realize that this was the host club. I should have known at there was no way that so many teenage girls would get excited over parasites. Maybe I am the stupid one out of my brothers.
"This is a Host club?" Haruhi started to back towards the door. Really Haruhi? There is no reason to freak out. Although I don't know what a Host club is, it can't be that bad. Can it?
"Oh it's two boys." the twins said in sync sounding board actually.
What?!Two boys? We're girls! But I guess it makes sense why they would think that, we don't exactly look the part. We are both wearing baggy clothes that would be classified as boy clothes, and our hair is cut to boy lengths. Haruhi cut it because a boy in her neighborhood got gum in it, and decided that long hair is a hassle so she cut it off. I on the other hand, was told that I would never willingly cut my hair short by my twin brother Danny, I took it as a dare and cut it. He also said I would never dye my hair but I only got red streaks, he called it cheating but there wasn't any rules in the first place. It's not a big mystery why my nickname is Dare.
"Hikaru, Kaoru I believe these young men are in the same class as you." The one with glasses said calmly.
"Yeah but they're shy. They don't act very sociably so we don't know much about them" the twins said. Do they practice that, I come from triplets and we can't do that, maybe because me and Danny hate each other and Merlin has to be the peace maker.
"Well that wasn't very polite." He said smirking. He knows something.
"Welcome to the Ouran Host club Mr. Honor students." Glasses said politely.
"What! You two must be Haruhi and Dare Fujioka, you must be the exceptional honor students we heard about." The tall blonde said.
Haruhi froze at this "How did you know our names?"
Really? This school has 4 libraries all used for socializing, two honor students suddenly coming to the school must have been a hot topic for a while especially when one of them uses crutches.
"Well you're infamous, it's not every day commoners gain entrance to the academy." Glasses said. I knew- wait, did he just call us commoners?
"You must have audacious nerve to fight you're way into this school as honor students Fujioka's." Ouch. And he called the twins rude.
"Thank you I guess." Haruhi said.
The taller blonde put his hand on her shoulder basically trapping the poor girl "You're welcome. You're a hero to our…" at that point I turned him out and limped to the door, it was too late to rescue Haruhi.
"Where do you think you're going?" I heard the twins say on either side of me.
"Somewhere interesting. This place seems . . . dull."
Both of them gasp before sharing dramatic horrified looks before the one on the left said "Did you hear that Kaoru he thinks the Host club is boring. It looks like we're going to have to show him how entertaining the Host club is."
So he must be Hikaru, so far the only way I can tell them apart is the part in his hair which is on the right. After I get to know them better I will be able to tell them apart- wait, what am I thinking?! I am not going to stay here any longer than necessary.
"You're right Hikaru. We have a reputation to maintain after all." Kaoru with a mischievous grin on his face.
Uh oh, I really wish I knew what a Host club is. I limp backwards away from them, which unfortunately puts me farther away from the door. I back away until I'm beside Haruhi. Then the tall blonde calls us gay and asks what type of guy we like. Um, there is no other way to interpret what a host club does.
"Ah, it's not like that! We were just looking for a quiet place to study!" Haruhi said backing away bring me along with her. I'm not complaining, I just want to leave here and never come back.
"Or are you into a guy like me." He says holding her chin. I am okay with being forgotten.
Haruhi panics and backs away without thinking bringing me with her. Causing us to bump into the pedestal knocking the vase that was on it on towards the ground. We both attempt to catch it, but it was just out of our reach. It shattered on impact.
Both of us stated horrified at the mess.
Fuck, we can't even afford the school lunches here! How the hell are we going to pay for the expensive vase?
"Aww" I heard the twins say behind us.
"We were going to feature that renascence vase at an upcoming school auction." One said.
"Oh now you've done it commoners, the bidding on that vase was to start at 8,000,000 yen." the other said.
Shit Shit Shit! Would Mycroft pay for it? No, probably not if we can find another way to pay it off, not to mention I hate asking my brothers for help. Shit!
"One 8,000,000 yen?! How many thousand yen is that? How many thousands are in a million?" Haruhi said panicking. Then turned to me silently asking if Mycroft would pay it. I shook my head, I probably looked really pale, this is defiantly not a good day.
""Um we're going to have to pay you back." Haruhi said turning back to face them. I turned back to them and sat on the floor in shock.
"With what money? You two can't even afford school uniforms" The twins said in sync.
"What is with those grubby outfits you've got on anyways?" Kaoru said. His voice sounds different from Hikaru's.
"Well what do you think we should do Tamaki?" Glasses said from behind us.
The tall blonde sat down in the chair. Oh so the tall blonde is Tamaki. "There is a famous saying you may have heard Fujioka's. When in Rome you should do as the Romans do. Since you have no money, you can pay with your bodies. That means starting today you're the host club dogs." Tamaki said.
He called us dogs and we owe them money, did he unintentionally call us his bitches?
Haruhi fainted. What the hell did we get ourselves into?!
~Time Skip~
So our first job was to go shopping, and since it would be a far walk I had to use my crutches, yay (please note my sarcasm I hate crutches).
Why does this school have so many stairs?!
Haruhi being the nice person that she is, walked a very slow easy peace for me keep up and waited patiently for me at each of the stairs.
"Sorry for slowing you down." I said after we got to the top of the last stair case we have to climb (Thank goodness!).
"It's okay. The more time we take the less time we spend at the club. They're a bunch of idiots sending you with me to go shopping when you obviously have an injury!" Haruhi said angrily.
"Yeah. But I would rather hobble around then be in there without another sane person in there." I replied.
"Yeah I understand. Kyoya Ootori is pretty scary. And they don't know the definition of personal space."
They introduced everyone after Haruhi regained consciousness.
"I don't think Kyoya is that scary. He actually reminds me of Mycroft. But you are right about their sense of personal space."
"Hmm, yeah I guess he does kinda remind me of Mycroft." Haruhi agreed after a moment.
We both entered the club room with Haruhi with the stuff they sent us to buy.
"Well speak of the devil. Thank you for doing the shopping little piglets. Did you get everything on our list?" Tamaki said to us winking.
Piglets? I thought we were his bitches, or 'dogs' as Tamaki said earlier. Oh maybe because there are guests here.
"What? Piglets?" I heard Haruhi say beside me. She noticed too.
"Hey, what is this?" Tamaki said holding a jar of instant coffee.
"Just what it looks like, coffee." Haruhi said.
"What, have you never seen coffee before?" I said sarcastically. Really there is a label there for a reason.
"I've never seen this brand before. Is this the kind that is already ground?" Tamaki asked.
Really? It says instant on the front label.
"What do you mean its instant coffee." Haruhi said. Like I said earlier Haruhi is the nice one.
"It's instant?" The girls sitting across from Tamaki asked tilting their heads to the side.
"Whoa. I've heard of this before. Its commoner's coffee. You just add hot water." Tamaki exclaimed.
"I didn't know there was such a thing." One of the girls on the other couth said.
"So it's true. Commoners don't even have enough time to grind their own coffee beans." The other one said.
What the heck?! More girls actually came over here.
"Commoners are pretty smart." Kyoya said beside Haruhi.
"100 grams for 300 yen?" Hikaru said beside him. So they can read labels.
"That is a lot less than what we usually pay." Kaoru said beside me. I still can only tell the difference by their voices and hair.
"Fine we can go back to the store and get something else. Excuse us for not buying you guy's expensive coffee." Haruhi said annoyed. Really, if they wanted the expensive kind they should have told us.
Tamaki raised his hand "No I'll keep it."
Tamaki stood up "I'm going to give it a try." The rich people gasped. Really. It's just coffee, not like some spicy chili pepper people.
Then he said dramatically "I will drink this coffee!" Then they started clapping.
They can't be serious. Maybe Sherlock is right, everyone outside our family are idiots.
"Aright Haruhi, Dare come over here and make some of this coffee." Tamaki said.
No.
"Oh Tamaki you're taking the joke too far. Your palate won't be able to stomach that crap. You don't have to drink it because they bought it." The red head said after it was just me and Haruhi and her.
"I'm sorry, I was just talking to myself." She said smiling to us.
Clearly Haruhi didn't know what to say. While I know quite a few things about her. Firstly she is from a rich family (obviously) and it must be a powerful one since she said it so openly. Secondly she believes that commoners (oh god they got me using it as well) are automatically her servants and are beneath her. Thirdly it looks like she is possessive of Tamaki judging by what she said and probably feels threatened by the attention that Haruhi and I are receiving from him. So that means she will try to defend her 'territory' which means trouble for us later (great a potential bully). Lastly it seems that she thinks that commoners are dirty and disgusting people because they don't have money or power.
"Haruhi, Dare~" I heard Tamaki call.
"We're coming." Haruhi said.
He should read the label there are instructions for idiots that don't know how to make it.
~Time Skip~
Haruhi had to make it since I'm still on crutches and we didn't want to break anything else.
"Here." She said.
"Let the tasting begin." Tamaki said. Why does he make everything sound like an event?
"I'm a little scared to drink this stuff." One girl said.
"I'm scared that if I drink this my father will yell at me." another one said. How is this any grosser (A/N is that a word? Oh well, it is now.) then esscargo?(A/N I don't know how to spell the word for the fancy French dish that has snails in it)
Tamaki does a fancy dance dip with the girl and says "What if I let you drink it from my mouth."
"Then I would drink it." The girl says dazed. I feel like puking.
Then the other girls start screaming. Seriously?! That would be like drinking his backwash!
"This is ridiculous." I heard Haruhi say quietly beside me. Yes! Haruhi you are the only other sane one here.
~Time Skip~
Haruhi and I walked past the twins doing their brotherly love act. We are bringing tea to the tables and they gave me a cart, at least they are being considerate, kind of.
"What are they so excited about? I just don't get it." Haruhi said.
Eww, how could they be like that? I can barely stand being in the same country as Danny, and Merlin, well he is an okay brother.
~Time Skip~
Haruhi and I are watching Honey's act.
"Is that boy really a 3rd year student?" Haruhi asked.
"Looks can be deceiving." I replied.
"Very true Dare. Honey-sempi may seem young and childish but he is a prodigy. And then Mori-sempi's allure is his strong and silent disposition." Kyoya said coming up beside us.
Haruhi looked nervous about him. Then again she hasn't spent much time around Mycroft.
"Haru-chan, Dare-chan." Honey cried before spinning Haruhi around. I explained to him that I had a leg injury earlier, so he doesn't surprise me like he does with Haruhi.
"Hey Haru-chan Dare-chan do you have some cake with me?" he said happily. Cake? I want cake.
"Thanks but I don't really like cake." Haruhi said looking dizzy.
"What about you Dare-chan?" Honey asked.
"Yeah of course!" I replied. I like cake but no one lets me have some because I get too hyper, and it's not good when you have to try and stay off your feet.
"No. Your brothers told me not to let you have any sweets until your leg is healed." Haruhi said sternly. Wow she's stricter than Mycroft.
I pouted, and she still held her ground. Dam it's going to be a long 4 months.
"Aww don't be sad Dare." He gave me a hug. Aww he is soo cute! What? If you can see him you would be saying the same thing. He turned to Haruhi "Then how would you like to hold my bunny Usa-chan."
"I'm not into bunnies." Haruhi said. How can you say no to a face like that?!
"Are you saying you don't like Usa-chan?" He said sadly holding his bunny in front of him.
"I guess he is kinda cute huh." Haruhi said.
"He is adorable!" I said. Honey looked surprised by what we said, then it looked like he realised something. I wonder what it was.
He gave the bunny to Haruhi and ran back to his guests. "Take good care of him okay." He called back to us.
"You'll notice that our club utilizes each man's characteristics to cater to the desires of our guests. Just so you know Tamaki is number one around here. He is the king. His request rate is 70%." Kyoya said.
"What is this world coming to?" Haruhi said, I nodded.
"And in order for you two to pay off your 8,000,000 yen debt with us. You will both act as the host clubs dogs until you graduate. I'm sorry I meant our errand boys." He said smiling. Why do they smile after they say something rude? It's not like it is something to smile about.
"You too can try to run away if you want to Fujioka's, but just so you know, my family employs a private police force of 100 officers. By the way do you two have a passport?" Kyoya said. Haruhi hid behind me. Huh, I guess she's scared.
I turn to him. "Is that threat Mr. Ootori?" I said challengingly.
He looks surprised for a moment before he composed himself. "No, just a friendly reminder."
"Good, because I thought we were going to have a problem. Rest assured Kyoya, Haruhi and I will pay off the debt one way or another." I said giving him a fake smile. Haruhi looked at me like I have a death wish. A Holmes backs down to no one. Besides if I am really in trouble with a company in Japan, Mycroft will just bail me out.
He looked at me surprised, and looked away to six his glasses.
Then Tamaki comes out of nowhere "You're going to have to work hard to pay off that debt my little nerds." He said the last part practically breathing down Haruhi's neck.
Haruhi jumped away with her hand on her neck "Please don't do that again."
"Pervert." I said quietly, only Kyoya heard me.
Unknown to me, I became Kyoya's mystery. So I will be under careful observation, and my secret will be reviled sooner then I hope.
"You two need a make-over or no girl is going to look twice at either of you." Tamaki said.
"Yeah but we're not trying to get girls to look at us." Haruhi and I said at the same time.
"That is the most important thing, you have to learn how to be gentlemen. And please the ladies, like me." Tamaki said holding a red rose. Where did he get the rose?
"I just think it's that important. Why should I care about appearances and labels anyway?" Haruhi said.
"All that really matters is what's on the inside." I said. I wish I didn't care about labels, my life would be so much easier.
Review to let me know what you think and if there is anything I should change.
