Hello all! How are you? Enjoy~
Chapter 2 "Hikaru! Kaoru!" Rusty yelled, running over to her new best friends. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *With Riku* Stupid girl and her stupid 'that's so scary'! Riku paced angrily around the room, avoiding the shattered mirror. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *After school* Toby shifted his headphones. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Throughout hosting, Russell stayed on Toby's shoulder, making his appearance even weirder.
Toby pulled his beanie down a bit, covering half of his headphones.
Guess I'd better go to the music room... He thought, shrugged, then made his way up the flights of stairs, and into the music room.
Kyoya was sitting down at one of the tables, typing away at his laptop.
Toby sat down on the other side.
"Hello Toby."
"Hey Kyoya."
The older boy shifted uncomfortably.
Kyoya looked up, "What is it?"
"I just... Uh..." Toby looked down at his feet, he wasn't used to saying 'thanks' or 'sorry'.
"Thank you for yesterday. With the glass and stuff."
"You're welcome," Said Kyoya, "How is that cut, by the way?"
Toby looked down at his arm instinctively, then frowned, "It's fine."
Really, the slash was throbbing and stinging all the time.
There was a soft knock on the door, and then it swung open.
A small, black-haired, onyx eyed girl stood, looking slightly upset.
"Yiu? What's wrong?" Kyoya asked, standing up.
The girl rushed forward, then hugged Kyoya.
She sniffled.
"Um..." Toby mumbled.
Kyoya looked up, "This is my little sister. Yiu Ootori."
Ah... That would explain the resemblance. Toby thought.
Kyoya looked back down to his sister, "Yiu, what's wrong?"
"Uh... Riku..."
Kyoya frowned, "What did Riku do?"
"She... She... She hit me." Yiu buried her face in Kyoya's jacket.
"She hit you?!"
Yiu nodded.
Kyoya glared at the door, seconds before a golden-brown-haired girl burst in, seething.
"Riku, go into the changing room." Kyoya said calmly.
"NO! WHY SHOULD I-"
She was lifted off the ground by strong arms.
Takashi held her up.
Riku thrashed about, "Hey! Taka-Chan! Let me go!"
"Go to the changing room."
Toby stared. It was the first time he'd heard Takashi speak.
Riku huffed, then got set down.
She glared over her shoulder as she stormed into the changing room.
There was a crash.
Takashi strode over to Yiu.
"Are you okay?"
Yiu leapt into Takashi's arms.
He hugged her close, smiling softly.
Hunny appeared in the doorway, "Takashi! Where's Ri-Chan?"
The tall boy looked over, then pointed to the changeroom.
Hunny rushed over, then slipped behind the curtain.
Toby was still looking around, confused, "Uh..."
Kyoya sat back down, "That was Riku Haninozuka. She has anger issues sometimes."
"Right..."
That explains everything, doesn't it?
"Toby?" Rusty peered around the door, Hikaru and Kaoru's heads appearing above hers, "Schools about to start... Soo..."
"Okay." The blue-haired boy stood up, nodded to Kyoya, then walked out of the room.
"Ri-Chan?" Hunny walked it.
"What?!" Riku snapped.
"Sit down."
The girl flopped down on the small couch.
Hunny winced at his sister's reaction.
Being Yasuchika's twin, both of them were angered quite easily, but she seemed to get really angry at minor things.
"Why were you in the High School anyway?"
Riku sighed, "I don't even know. Chika wanted me to."
"Huh? Where is Chika-Chan?"
Riku was silent for a minute, "He says he's in the dojo."
"Okay~!"
"... He wants us to go get him." Riku stood up.
Hunny smiled, "Alright."
"Toby! Come on!" Rusty said, holding a hand of each twin.
Her older brother sighed, eyes closed, before opening them and following the younger three to music room 3.
"Rust-head, learn to be patient." Toby said flatly.
"Hey!"
Without looking around, Kaoru put one arm protectively over her shoulders.
Hikaru smirked, earning a look from his brother.
Suddenly Rusty halted, "GINGER?!"
Kaoru looked down at her, "Huh?"
A girl down the hall turned around to look at the small group.
"Rusty?"
Rusty broke free from the twins' hold, and sprinted off to her friend.
The new girl smiled, brushing her brown hair out of her eyes.
"Toby's here too. Cool."
Hikaru was lost for words. This girl looked beautiful.
It was Kaoru's turn to smirk.
Hikaru turned pink, seeing his twin's face.
Toby kept a straight face, turned the corner, on his way to the music room.
Ginger hugged the younger and much shorter Rusty.
"Who are your friends?"
"Oh!" Rusty hopped away from Ginger, "This is Kaoru, and this is Hikaru."
Kaoru grinned, "Hi!"
Hikaru turned scarlet, "Uh... Hey..."
Rusty sniggered.
Kaoru checked his phone, "Guys, we're late."
Rusty immediately stopped smiling, "Kyoya'll kill us!" She turned to Ginger, "Do you want to come with us?"
"Are you going to the Host Club?"
The twins nod.
"Okay!"
All four of them ran down the hall to the big doors.
They opened a crack. Toby's purple eye could be seen through the gap.
"Let us in!" Rusty shouted.
A smile spread across his face.
"Come on!"
Toby's eye rolled before he swung the door open.
"Well he's different from what I remember..." Ginger mumbled.
Rusty nodded, "He's been like this since he was eleven."
"There you are!" Tamaki exclaimed.
While he was spouting some crap about 'daughter running off on him' and such, Toby went and sat down with Kyoya.
Takashi, Hunny, and Yiu were sitting in the corner of the room, talking and eating cake.
"So what's up Kyoya?" Toby asked. He wasn't all that moody around Kyoya.
"Looking at the cosplay for today."
"WHAT?!" Toby exclaimed, jumping up, "WE DRESS UP?!"
Kyoya nodded.
"I DIDN'T AGREE TO THIS!"
"Technically, you didn't even agree to being in the Host Club."
"B-But, dressing up!?"
"Yes. Your costume is in the changeroom, by the way. Go and get changed." Kyoya instructed, blocking any argument.
Toby seethed. Scratch that earlier statement, he was just as moody.
He stalked over to the changeroom.
A pair of leather pants and a black leather trenchcoat. Also added was a pair of black, silky angel's wings.
Wait, does that mean that I go shirtless?
Toby sighed and quickly got changed, then examined himself in the mirror. He looked good.
The wings rested firmly on his back, black feathers giving them a shimmering look.
He walked out of the room.
Everyone turned to look at him.
Tamaki was frozen.
Kyoya looked impressed.
Rusty looked vaguely disgusted.
Hikaru and Kaoru were grinning, ""You look great!""
His blue hair contrasted with the black leather and the wings, giving him a slightly odd appearance, but a great one nonetheless.
Ginger smiled.
Hunny beamed, "That's great Toby-Chan!"
Kyoya stood up, "These go with the outfit, too." He passed him a pair of leather gloves.
"Lots of leather..." Toby mumbled, tugging on the gloves.
Rusty was a little red angel, wearing a red hoodie, white jeans, and red wings.
The twins were blue angels, both wearing sleeveless blue shirts and jeans, blue wings.
Tamaki was a white angel, with a big white trenchcoat, white jeans, and a white top, with white wings.
Hunny was a little pink angel, pink hooded top, pink shorts, and pale pink wings
Takashi was dark blue, big dark blue trenchcoat, jeans, and wings.
Finally, Kyoya was dark purple. He wore a dark purple blazer and black pants, dark purple wings.
Toby smiled inside, slightly.
That's when the twins did something... unexpected.
""Hey Toby, can you come over here?""
"Uh... Sure." He walked over, trenchcoat billowing out behind him a bit.
""Well..."" They pulled out a kitten from behind them.
""We found your cat and..." Toby's cat, Russell, was dressed in a little pink tutu and a tiara.
Toby stared, before finally breaking down in hysterical laughing.
Rusty looked terrified, "YOU BROKE HIM! YOU BROKE MY BROTHER!"
Toby sat on the ground, tears of laughter sliding down his face.
Hikaru and Kaoru looked at the cat, ""Is it really that funny?""
Kyoya was surprised, but also inside, really happy. Toby's laughing face was much better than his usual straight face.
Russell squirmed around, falling to the ground, then trotted over to his owner to see was up.
"Mew!"
Toby looked at him, "Oh Russell." He scooped him up and hugged him to his chest.
The little grey tabby was confused.
Rusty was hiding behind Takashi.
Yiu was looking confused also.
Hunny was smiling, "Yay! Toby-Chan in laughing!"
Ginger sat down at one of the tables, That's the old Toby. The one I last saw.
A dark angel with blue hair, with a little tabby in a pink tutu on his shoulder.
All the girls thought it was adorable.
Also that Toby was in quite a good mood.
He was smiling the whole hosting session.
"Toby? Can I talk to you?" Kyoya called.
Toby looked up from scratching Russell's ears, the sound of Kyoya's voice made his heart speed up a bit, "Yeah, sure."
He took the kitten off his shoulder, then passed him to Rusty.
Kyoya smiled slightly.
Toby walked over, "What is it?"
"We're having a Host Club trip fairly soon. I was wondering whether you and your sister will be able to go." The shadow king said.
"Uh... Where to?"
"I was thinking Okinawa, probably."
Toby nodded, "We should be able to go... Unless there's something on..."
"Great. Tell me if something comes up."
"'Kay."
"Hey Toby!" Rusty yelled, "We have to show the girls that thing Russell does! Y'know... The dancing!"
Toby grinned, "He only does it with me anyway! He's my cat!"
Hope you liked it~!
