"Hello" -Talking

'Hello' -Karou's thoughts

Hello -Mister Director

Hello -Anything bolded has a very important role in the story, so pay attention to them! You'll find out why they are so important in later chapters, though.

Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran High School Host Club. I do, however, own Mister Director and the plot bunnies for this story.

You… You IDIOT! That's it! You're going to pay for stopping the play, for messing up the act, and, for letting them touch you!

Pain went through my head, and I let out a short cry, clinging to whomevers-hugging-me's shirt.

I felt a lot of orbs watching me.

Orbs that are beautiful and colorful.

Orbs that are shining with worry.

Orbs that are in my friends heads.

Orbs that are eyes.

I can't believe you, you brat! Letting them hug you, of all things!

I felt more wetness pour out of my eyes as I realized something; Mister Director hates me now.

I'm going to have to fix that, aren't I?

Puffiness in the sky, why do you puff?

How can you stay so white and pure when there's so much hate in the world?

Tell me your secret, puffiness in the sky.

Tell me how you do it, how you survive.

Brown tree, how can you stay standing?

After everything that people put you through, cutting down your friends and family, how?

Is there some unknown secret to this, too?

Is there some secret to everything?

I don't understand!

It's so confusing!

And you all are so misunderstood!

You really are!

How can you just sit there, doing nothing, as your leaves, oh so green, sway and dance with the wind?

(Don't you get jealous?)

How can you stand it when two seasons later, they leave you, all cold and alone?

(Don't you get upset?)

What keeps you sane?

Is it knowing that they'll come back?

Is it knowing that there was nothing you could do to stop it?

Or, can you not stand it, and are you truly insane, crying the tears that only trees could as you fall into a deep slumber?

Do you truly hate the winter season for you're always alone, save for other trees?

Do you truly hate the autumn season, for your leaves fall to the ground, and you have to watch as they slowly decay and rot?

Is the only thing keeping you trees sane, knowing that you're not the only one going through it?

Well?

Is it?

Yes! That's right! Push them away! Never look back! Keep the show going! Be the best actor there is! Never let your true emotions filter through and onto your mask! That's right, you're doing it!

I'm running now.

I don't know where I am.

I miss the club room.

It was warm back there.

I never did see who was hugging me.

I pushed them away, and ran out of the room.

Why?

Why did I run when I was perfectly happy, and had people caring about me, for once?

Why?

Why did I do it?

So many whys…

The reason I did it though was so that Mister Director could be happy with me again.

I don't want him to stay mad at me.

Although, he is.

He's keeping my headache going, because he's angry at me for letting my mask fall.

Run! Keep running! Don't let them get you! They were breaking through! That's it; you're banned from talking to them!

A broken heart is a worse pain than a broken bone… Isn't that what they say?

Isn't that what the unicorns and bunnies believe?

Are you going to answer?

Ahh, of course not.

Why would I answer myself?

Maybe, because, I'm all that I have left?

That must be it.

You are becoming smarter, Karou-Hime! Next time that you reach a new level of smartness, I'll take away the pain. Do you believe me? Do you trust me?

Cackling madly!

Such a fun sport!

Its great exercise at scaring people and at becoming insane~

Although, I think I already am a professional at both.

The rain comes down, and I watch, laughing.

It smears on the mirror, for the wet droplets are coming in through the open window.

How exciting!

The water on the mirror goes; Drip, drip, drip!

And then, it hits the floor with a plop, plop, plop!

I stand there, laughing, and as I fling open my balcony doors a torrent of rain comes, saying hello!

Now, I begin to dance, if it can even be called that.

Spin. Twirl. Giggle. Fall. Grin. It's like the play, I realize, as I begin laughing again.

Within seconds, I'm fully soaked as I lay on the balcony connected to my room, grinning up at the sky stupidly.

"Hello, rain! And how might you be on this fine evening?"

A flash of lightning, followed closely by a roar of thunder was my answer.

"Ahh, that's not too good, then, is it? Just let it all out now! I promise that you'll feel much better! Give me all you've got! Hahaha!"

It's raining harder, and I now wonder if I could drown if I stayed like this long enough… Hmm…

I continue lying there thinking about if it was possible or not, when my bedroom door gets slammed open, and the Host Club is standing there, soaked.

Is that because they were searching for me…?

Oopsies!

"Karou! What the Hell are you doing?"

Uh oh! Hika-Chan seems angry!

"What am I doing? Laying here, of course! I thought that was obvious...!"

Gasp!

His eye brow twitched!

He's angry with me!

Nooooo!

Am I at the next step on the road to insanity?

I believe I am!

And it's fun!

This time, it's Tamaki that speaks up.

"Karou! Where were you? We were so incredibly worried!"

"Where was I?" I repeat him, curious.

I don't believe that I can answer that…

For, I don't even know where I was!

Is that strange?

"Hum… Well, I don't know! For all I'm sure of right now, I could've been in Germany, or some other bizarre place!"

Now, they're dumbfounded, I see.

I would be too, if I were them!

I now return to the storm clouds, laughing as more rain comes and pounds down on my face.

I hear the door shut, and I look over to see them standing in the room, looking around, shocked.

My eyes close, as I smile, letting the rain continue to hit my face.

With my eyes closed, it feels like I'm under water!

Where is a place that has a lot of water…?

Aha! The ocean!

So, now, I imagine that I'm in the ocean!

Who knew the ocean could be this fun?

Blank: That was the chapter! Yay! Sorry for such a long update, but I was busy… with... stuff. Anywho, did you like it? Hate it? Absolutely despise it and now you're running after me with pitchforks? EEK! So, if anyone read this, I would love to hear your opinions so PM me or review and tell me about what you thought of the story! I guess that I'll see you all next chapter!
