A/N: I would like to thank all my adoring fans, new and old! And an extra special thanks tojusticeintheworldofhp-yearight and Death-the –Kitten –Meister and Miz Shoelaces, for reviewing my story! So yeah, the once a week is probably not gonna work out all perfect and stuff, so I'll be updating as much as I possibly can! Always remember, family will always love you, you'll most likely always walk on the ground, and the glass is always full, it just might not seem like it! I also noticed something on this site, no one seems to like Tamaki! What's up with that? Any who…Enjoy Chapter three! BTW I'm planning on making this a longish chapter so, yeah. Enjoy!

Disclaimer: If I owned Ouran High School Host Club, I could afford my own laptop…which I still don't own so, you do the math…so all you lawyers out for blood, GO AWAY! I also don't own any, and I mean ANY, music that I put in this unless I tell you otherwise!

Claimer: I own my OC's and sort of my storyline, not the basic, but you know, like character situations and how it comes together.

Last chapter:

After the Host Club introduced themselves, Rose made an announcement.

"Well, we have to go set up for practice, so if you excuse us we'll see you around!"

Chapter three: Family doesn't mean you have to be related.

Hikaru's point of view:

"Can we watch?" Kaoru asked with a mischievous glint in his eye. He was up to something, and I want in!

"Um, we'd love to have you come, but we still have to set up and stuff, our first practice is on Thursday next week at 4:00, so if you want to come that'd be cool!" Rose said looking apologetic.

"Well," Kyoya spoke up, "We hope you will be able to join us at for the dance we're holding tomorrow night."

I saw one of their twins perk up. I think it's Lilly, because of the lily she wore in her hair.

"Is it formal, semi-formal, or what?" I swear I saw stars in her eyes. Tamaki being the bumbling idiot that he is spoke up about how it would be all formal and that they would look lovely no matter what they wore. But I was shocked at Rose's expression. She heaved a heavy sigh.

"Well, I got work to do then so I better start now, come on girls…and Ash. If you guys wanna help, or watch go ahead. Marigold, you're in charge while I work."

Work? Haha funny, but I do want to watch. So I decided to follow them out, Kaoru by my side.

"You guys coming or not?" I asked them quizzically. First off, I was bored, and secondly, I wanted to know why Rose was so depressed. I mean she was a dancer and all, why would she like a dance?

We followed them into Stage Room 3. When we walked in, there were no rose petals or bright light, just boxes everywhere, and costume racks. There was a low stage that went wall to wall with red velvet curtains pulled to the side. The only area that looked like it was ready to use was a corner with 6 dress forms. Four of them had a sheet over them, like whatever was under them was meant to be a surprise. I think I'm going to go take a peak later.

"Alright dancers, get to work, Mary, sort it out." Rose said before walking to the sewing corner. Damn. Now I'll never know. She got right to works sewing stuff.

"Hey Kaoru, you thinking what I'm thinking?"

"Of course I am Hikaru," he said slyly. Fun, fun!

Mary's point of view:

"Alright Lilly, Ivy, you unpack the costumes, Belle, you make sure the lights and sound systems are working properly."

"What can I do to help Marigold?" An eager Daisy asked. I looked down at Daisy. I really didn't have anything for the childish 3rd year to do.

"Go help Rose with anything she needs," I said bluntly. She skipped down to Rose and started talking to her, but I saw her face drop and she walked over to the stage and sat down on a stool. I felt bad for her, so I got a lemon from the fridge and tossed it at her. Her face lit up like a Christmas tree and darted off to cut it up. I will never understand how a girl so sweet could eat something so sour.

"Are you guys going to just stand there, or are you going to do something?" I asked. One of the red heads spoke up, the one with the lower voice.

"I think we'll just watch, thank for asking!"

I could already tell he was going to be just as bad as Ivy…great. If I'm correct, the red heads are up to something. I swear, if they screw something up, they are so dead. I made a note of it on my IPad (I'm not Steve Jobs, he's dead, me no own)

I notice Lilly and Ivy moving some boxes around. They seem fine, so I decided to check to see if the sound system was functioning.

"Belles, you got the sound system in check?"

"Yeah, so do the lights," she said, glancing up at me and smiling. Sometimes I wish she would be less shy around people. She's really fun to be around, but that's only when she's with us and not random people…aka, the Host Club. That's when I heard a impolite interjection coming from Ivy.

"Damn it! Where the hell did those boxes go? They were here a minute ago!" Lilly tried to calm her screaming twin down, but to no avail. I rushed down from the sound box. I saw Ivy pacing and searching frantically, and Lilly just sat on the stage and sighed. I heard two people snickering behind me. Okay, now I'm pissed. I spun on my heels and gave them my best death glare.

"I advise you to give those boxes back to Ivy, now," my voice was as cold as ice. They looked about ready to pee their pants. I tried ridiculously hard not to laugh at their expression. They nodded and decided to play it cool. They walked around to a corner where the boxes were.

"Hey Ivy, I think I found the costumes!" The twin with the softer voice said. Ivy sprinted over to where he was, shoving him to the side. She grabbed the boxes and walked back to the racks.

"Kaoru! Are you okay, are you hurt?" the twin who is Hikaru asked, getting really close, I mean, nose to nose.

"Please, do that at home, not here. It's disgusting!" I said looking away.

"You don't enjoy the "brotherly love" act Ms. Golden?" A cold, calculating voice asked from behind me.

"No I don't, and not just me, we all think it's kind of creepy," I told him, not even bothering to look at him. I knew about him. Kyoya Ootori was the kind of guy who only did something if he had something to gain. You can't trust him.

"Hmm…interesting," that was all he said before he walked away and wrote something down in his notebook. Damn Ootori. I was about to go back to the sound box when two arms wrapped around my shoulders.

"So-" Hikaru started

"-we don't have to act all lovey dovey around here?" Kaoru finished.

"Yes, we would prefer if you didn't." I coolly replied. They both high-fived, looking relieved that they didn't have to act homo. I went to check on Rose's progress. This is going to be a long rest of the day.

Rose's point of view

Finally I finished the last two dresses. I did mine last because I had an old dress, but I wanted a new one, but the rest of them had to get done first. They were originally going to be for Marigold's family masquerade party, but the Host Club dance happened to come up.

"You ready to go?" Mary asked.

"Yeah, I finished the gowns so we can use them for the dance tomorrow night," I said, I just want to go home. The Host Club was still here. I can't believe they stayed here the whole time and none of them helped.

"ASHYY! I wanna go home!" I whined. I'm so tired, and I still have to work with Lainy, and help Kelly with the chores. Ugh.

"Yes Ashton, we would love to see where you live!" Tamaki interjected, eyes wide like a child's. I didn't want to deal with this, so I caved.

"Fine, but I highly doubt you will be interested, anyways, your limo driver will have to follow us, we can't fit all of you in the truck."

"Truck," they all looked at me curiously. Dude, there dumb.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"DAAADDYYYYY!" a boisterous girl with short cropped brown hair yelled, jumping into my arms.

"Hey Lainy! How are you! You didn't give aunty Kelly any trouble today did you?" She looked at me with a big smirk on her face.

"I was extra good today because Ms. Marley said that if I was good, she would make spaghetti for all of us!" She peeked behind me to see a bunch of guys behind me. "Daddy look out there are strange boys behind you." I hushed her. She knows not to yell in the house.

"Lainy, shush, these are some new friends from school," I introduced her to the Host Club and she warmed up to them immediately, especially Tamaki.

"Daddy, Ms. Marley wants you to help her with dinner, 'specially cuz you we have seven more people to feed."

Seven? Who else is here? Just then, Kelly Marley walked in with Haruhi behind her.

"I hope you don't mind if I invited her over, it's just that, she hasn't been over ever since elementary school, and now you two go to school together. And I see that I'm not the only on inviting people over." She said to me in a matter-oh-fact voice.

"Well, you must be Rose and Ashton's mother, it's a pleasure to meet you! I am Tamaki Suoh, king of the Host Club! And this is the rest of the Host Club, Kyoya, Hikaru, Kaoru, Honey, and Mori!" I face palmed as my aunt gave me a quizzical look.

"They followed us home," Ash said bluntly. Honey started talking about how it was so cool that we rode in the back of a covered truck instead of a limo. I just sighed and shook my head.

"Hey, Rose, I was wondering, why does Lainy call you daddy?" Haruhi asked me. I gave a light chuckle. I kind have thought she would get it.

"You don't have to be blood related to be a family. Heck, I only have my AUNT, and Ash as my real family here." I made sure to say aunt really loud so Tamaki and the others could hear. "But everyone here is part of my strange and wacky family. Here, I'm Daddy, Marigold's Mommy, Lilly and Ivy are my sister's, Daisy and Belles are Mary's sisters, and all the kids here are our kids, Elaine, Vlademar, and Axel. But the other kids here consider us family too." Lainy looked at me and crinkled her nose.

"I told you not to call me that!" She whined.

"What, Elaine? Elaine, Elaine, Elaine, ELAINE!" I mocked her in a sing song voice. Haruhi laughed as she struggled out of my reach.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Foods ready!" I exclaimed proudly. Not to boast or anything, but I am awesome at Italian food. Pasta, breadsticks, Caesar salad, and sparkling grape juice in massive proportions. When you live in an orphanage with 20 other kids, you have to make big meals. No I myself am not an orphan, but I might as well be. This is where my aunt lives. It's her orphanage anyways. At first, she wouldn't let Ash and I help pay for it, but after much begging and the broken leg I got in our old neighborhood, she caved in. Since my parents are rich, they gave us shit loads of money for birthdays, Christmas, Easter, any day that they could use as an excuse to say, "Sorry for dumping you in Japan." I'm happier here anyways. Sure I miss America, but hey, now I know so many new people. I inwardly smiled.

It was hilarious to watch the Host Club's reaction when 15 other kids ran in ready to eat.

"Why on Earth are there so many kids here?" Tamaki exclaimed as Axel clung to his arm. All of the other Host's had kids climbing on them, even Kyoya had Vlademar attached to him. Kyoya shot Vlad a death glare, but Vlademar just looked up and smiled.

"I don't know, maybe because it's an orphanage!" Mary smiled, removing Vlad from Kyoya. He then clung to her.

"Did you not notice-"

"-the sign outside that says-"

"Ms. Marley's Home for Orphan Families?" Lilly and Ivy asked giving them a look that would make Steven Hawking feel like an idiot. They all kind of looked dumbfounded, except for Kyoya, who probably knew since we came to Ouran. I can tell that this is going to be an interesting year.
