My job as the Librarian Chapter 3
So I have to go to work today, on a Saturday. This sucks, but on the positive side no kids will be there which makes this a little better. I got to Ouran and walked inside. Man this place looks pretty bare. I unlocked the library doors and walked over to my desk.
There was a humongous stack of paperwork and files there with a sticky note on top. It read, 'Thanks for doing this, you're the best. Love, Nobuko :)'. Wow she's so tacky, now time to get to work.
I was about ¾ of the way done with filing when the doors opened to reveal the Hitachiin twins coming in. "What are you two doing in here," I question them.
"We're here on official host club business. Tamaki wants to do a theme on Rome. So naturally we're here to pick up some books on the place," one said smugly.
"But its Saturday," I retort.
"Well Tono wanted to hold a meeting today. Trust me we don't want to be here just as much as you," the other one said.
"Fair enough, do you need help finding anything?" I ask.
"Yeah help us find some books on Rome," they smiled.
I grabbed my map off the desk, "Alright follow me."
"This is taking forever we're not lost, are we?" one complained.
"No, I think we're almost there," I reply.
"I would hope so," he crosses his arms.
"Stop being rude Hikaru," Kaoru says elbowing him. He just huffs in reply.
"Here we are. These books are all on Rome. Have fun," I start walking off.
"No you have to stay so we don't get lost on the way back," they whine.
I groan and grab a seat at one of the tables. Their eyes viciously scan the rows of books and pick out a few. They turn to me, each of them holding a couple books.
"You done?" I ask. They nod their heads.
"Well let's go then." They lay all the books out on the desk when we get there.
"So this is all the stuff you guys want to check out?" I grab one of the books.
"I don't know, would it be possible for me to check you out," one of them said roughly and winked at me.
The other one pushed him out the way, "I'm sorry, sometimes Hikaru is too much of a flirt for his own good."
"Oh you just want her all to yourself don't you Kaoru?" Hikaru pushes him back.
"You're such an idiot," Kaoru replies sticking his tongue out at him.
I laugh at them, "You guys are way too young for me."
"The older the better," Hikaru purred.
"Gross," I say and finish checking out their books.
"You're loss," he teases.
"Oh yeah I bet," I say sarcastically. "Now are you gonna let me get back to work, or are you going to keep bothering me?" I ask.
"Depends, what do I get out of it?" he leans on the desk.
"What you're going to get, is kicked out if you don't wipe that smug little grin off your face," I reply and tap my fingers on the desk.
"Oh really," he smirks.
"Come on Hikaru, we have to get back to the meeting anyway," Kaoru tugs on his arm.
The doors opened and Tamaki came bursting in. "There you guys are, what's been taking so long. We're all waiting for you," Tamaki scolds them.
"Well Hikaru's been too busy flirting it up with the new librarian," Kaoru scoffs.
"Don't be jealous that she likes me more than you," Hikaru crosses his arms.
Tamaki comes up to me pushing both twins out of the way, "Dear maiden I'm sorry that those two unscrupulous twins bothered you. Let the Host Club make it up to you." He grabs my hand and gives it a kiss, "We're hosting a ball next weekend, feel free to come and indulge yourself in the wondrous ambiance that is the Host Club. It's on Saturday at 5:30, I'll be expecting to see you there."
Great, yet another thing to get in the way of one of my relaxing Saturdays. "I'd love to really, but I uh have to help my friend plan some arrangements for her wedding," I replied. Yeah that sounds believable, right?
Tamaki frowned, "That's really a shame. If your plans change I'd love to see you there. I must bid you adieu, I have to go finish our meeting." He points a finger at the twins, "I trust next time you two will be better behaved."
"But it was Hikaru who-," Kaoru started but Hikaru cut him off, "Yes boss we'll be on our best behavior." Kaoru grumbled and crossed his arms, Hikaru just smirked at him. Tamaki starts exiting and the twins came over to get the books.
"You know Hikaru; it seems that whenever I'm innocent I always get wrapped into your mischief," Kaoru complained.
"Oh wah, cause I'm sure we all want to hear about the problems in the life of Kaoru Hitachiin," Hikaru mocked him. They continued bickering as they left the library.
Well that was interesting. I better finish up this paperwork or Nobuko will have my head.
When I got back to my place Nobuko was there packing stuff. This will probably be the last day she has to do that.
"Hey Mizuki, how was work? I bet it was terrible without me" she laughed.
"Well it was actually kinda funny. The Hitachiin twins showed up and so did Tamaki. He invited me to some ball their hosting next weekend. I mean as if, can you imagine me at a ball," I start laughing at the thought of me trying to dance.
Her face lights up and she turns to me, "You should go! All you ever do is sit around all weekend and go eat pie at the coffee shop. You need to go get a life of some sort!"
"Well gee thanks. And even if I did go, which I'm not saying I am, I would have nothing to wear," I go over to the fridge and grab an apple.
"You could wear something of mine. You know how my mom always sends me tons of girly stuff. I have plenty of fancy dresses," she exclaims.
I take a bite of my apple, "Yeah well, I just don't want to go. It sounds really stupid"
She crosses her arms, "Don't be so stubborn. It's either that or I'm going to call Cole and set up a date for you two this weekend."
I glare at her, "You wouldn't."
"Try me," she smirks.
"Fine I'll go to the stupid thing. I hate you, you know that?" I mumble at her.
"You'll thank me for it one day," she smiles.
"Yeah I doubt it," I say as she grabs my arm.
"You know speaking of Cole, I don't get why you won't go out with him. He's such a nice guy and really smart. Not to mention very attractive. With that shaggy blonde hair, bright blue eyes, and great build. Hell if I didn't have Tadashi I'd be after him in a second," she states.
"Yeah well that's you. He's just a friend, nothing more nothing less, get the picture," I explain.
"Yeah yeah, now let's go pick out a dress. Luckily I haven't packed up this stuff yet," she says dragging me into her room.
