After school I went straight to the high school building. I pulled out a piece of paper from my uniform pocket. The third music room, huh? Alright a right,then another right, then a left.I hoped my insticnts were correct about which way I should be going. It was taking a while so I was getting scared by the fact that I could be lost in this huge building. I started running blindly with my eyes clinched shut. Suddenly there was a WACK!, "WACK!"? I thought as I snapped my eyes open to find two boys that looked identical aside from the different ways their hair was parted.
"Well, hello there! We're the Hitachiin Brothers," they said in unison.
"I'm Kaoru and this is Hikaru," said te one on the right, "Who are you?"
"I...um...ah...I-I'm T-T-Tohru F-Fujioka," I managed to stutter out.
The brothers turned to each other and questioned each other, "Fujioka?" Then they turned back to me, "Do you know anyone named Haruhi Fujioka?"
"Ah...yeah, I'm ah...looking for Haruhi."
"Great!" they replied. The doppelgangers grabbed my scrawny arms and dragged me away. Being me I had completely lost control of my voice.
It had been a few minutes since they grabbed me so I let my mind flicker across the things in the halls.Oh! Up ahead, it's music room #3! Wait a sec, I think they're running to music room #3.And sure enough the brothers skidded to a hault in front of the music room door. They practically busted the door and shoved me forward.
"Haruhi, this girl..." Kaoru started
"Is looking for you!" Hikaru finished
"Huh?" Haruhi looked up with a blank face.
"Haruhi!" I exclaimed and ran to her with tears in her my eyes. I clung to her like she was my lifline.
"What did you two do?" Haruhi asked deadpanned.
"Nothing, we just brought her to you!" they protested.
"Who is that anyway?" piped up a tall blonde.
"I-I'm Haruhi's s-s-sister," I whispered quietly.
"Tohru Fujioka, 9th grade scholarship student at ouran middle school. The younger sister of Haruhi Fujioka," stated a guy with black hair and glasses.
"Younger sister!?" exclaimed the tall blonde and the twins.
"Yeah, who did you think she was?" Haruhi asked.
"Your oldersister!" they exclaimed.
"Really?" I finally spoke without stuttering.
"Yeah," said Hikaru, "How old are you anyway?"
I tilted my head down and moved my eyes up to look at him, "Fifteen."
"Oh, well now that's out of the way, my princess, I'm Tamaki Suoh. I'm the king of the Host Club!" said the blonde that I now knew as Tamaki Suoh.
I bent down and whispered to Haruhi, "Is that idiot really the leader of this club?"
"Yeah," she replied loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Nice to m-meet you, Suoh-sempai." I had turned back to the group of boys and spotted the guys from this morning.
"I am Kyoya Ootori, are you here to be a guest?" interrupted the guy with glasses.
"Um, no...Honey-sempai just suggested that I, um...check it out," I answered his question.
"Oh, you met Honey-sempai?" Suoh-sempai asked, "How about Mori-sempai?"
"Yes," I replied.
~~20 minutes later~~
About 20minutes ago customers started pouring in. I wandered around the music room, observing the hosts, but soon I got bored. I asked (more stuttering then anything) Ootori-sempai what I could do and he suggested that I sit with Haruhi.
Haruhi just used me like a prop but I didn't mind. It was actually kind of fun acting out a scene for Haruhi's customers. It's strange when I'm acting, I don't feel shy at all. I sat with Haruhi till the meeting was over. When we were about to leave, Ootori-sempai stopped us.
"Tohru, you seemed to make Haruhi's popularity rise,"Ootori-sempaiacknowledged then continued, "Would you like to come here after school everyday?"
My business side kicked in, I love money,"I would like that. Though if I'm making you money I would like 30% of of the profits I make you." Ha,when I'm business I'm not shy, I should be business all the time!
"3%" Ootori-sempai threw back.
"15%"
"5%"
"10%, think about it Ootori-sempai,"I coaxed.
Ootori-sempai was silent a minute then replied, "Fine. You can call me Kyoya-sempai by the way."
"Ok! Bye...Kyoya-sempai." My confidence slowly faded and I became my shy self again.
