Chap. 3
Well the Host Club was..interesting. I found out each of the hosts' types. Tamaki is the prince charming, Hunny is, of course, the loli-shota type, Mori is the wild type, Haruhi is the natural type, Kyouya is the shadow king, which explains a lot, and the twins were the little devil type.
Oh yeah, and the twins had this act. They call it their 'forbidden brotherly love'. I sat at Haruhi's table and observed how she did her job. I figure since I'm also a girl and I have to entertain the ladies, I should watch how Haruhi does the hosting. It was pretty simple, answer questions and smile. This should be easy.
After the Host Club was closed, we all just stayed there for a bit. Aiko had gone over to a friend's house.
"So, did you learned anything?" I felt two bodies lean on each of my shoulders. I Knew it was Hikaru and Kaoru. Who else would it be?
"Yeah, I learned that you guys have a thing for each other, that we're just playing with everyone's feelings to get money out of it." I said plainly.
The twins glared at me. And Tamaki yelled out "I WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING TO MY PRINCESSES!"
I sigh and looked at the twins.
"Am I some kind of tree for you to lean on or something?" I asked my eyebrow raised.
The corner of each twin's lips pulled up into a smirk.
"You're our new toy now," Hikaru said, his cat like eyes glinting mischiveously.
My eyebrows furrowed. Then I felt someone pat my shoulder. I turned my head to see Haruhi.
"You'll get use to it." She said.
I nodded and sigh.
Just then someone came bursting through the door. It was a girl with a fuchsia coloured bow in her long, light brown hair. And she came running towards me. I hope she doesn't tackle me. But I was wrong, she just stopped in front of me, grabbing my hand shaking it.
"I'm Houshakuji Renge, manager of the Host Club!" she greeted.
"...Hayashi Rin," I replied flatly. This was kinda random. Bursting in here to introduce herself?
She smiled then turns towards Kyouya.
"How come I wasn't inform that there was going to be a new host!"
Oh so that's why she's here.
Kyouya just sighed, not saying anything. It seems that this goes around often. Renge turns back towards me, her smile back on.
"Your're hosting tomorrow, I presume?"
"Yeah," I said, uninterested.
"What's your type?" She asked.
Then Tamaki joined in the conversation. "He doesn't have a type yet."
"Hmmm." Renge thought for awhile, then she snap her fingers with an idea as if a light bulb just switched over her head.
"I got it! The emotionless type!" She said happily.
"Why not emotionless, but caring type?" Hunny asked.
"I always see Rin caring for Aiko. Like, giving her his lunch and things. He always seems to be beside his sister, Aiko-chan." Hunny said looking up at me.
"And you say WE have a thing for each other," Kaoru sneered.
"At least I don't try to kiss my blood related sibling," I dead pan.
"Hai! The emotionless, but caring type it is!" Renge announced. Not noticing me and the twins glaring at each other.
I checked the time on my cellphone. 5 o'clock.
"I should be leaving now," I said while walking slowly to the door.
"Remember, you will be hosting tomorrow after school."
"Hn, fine," I mumbled and left.
When I got back home, it was probably an hour before Aiko got home also. We received a call from our aunt and uncle. They were in some part of Japan now and they wanted us to do a photo shoot right away. Uncle said I didn't have to dress like a boy for this one, so yeah, I came as myself. Anyway, me and Aiko had to pack up our things right then and there and take a long road trip to wherever. We arrived back home around 2 a.m in the morning. Auntie and Uncle had to catch a plane back to London to continue with their fashion business, so they didn't come home with us.
The next morning was a work out. I fell asleep in all the classes and got caught in all of them. I tried explaining that I had this photo shoot thing, which made all the girls in the classroom squeal, but the teacher couldn't care less so I had detention. Same goes with Aiko.
So the bell rung, signaling the end of school. I had to stay for detention, though I didn't mind. Actually, I just went back to sleep. I honestly didn't want to do the hosting thing today, I'm way too exhausted. I was sleeping peacefully until I was RUDELY interrupted by someone poking me. I opened one eye to see a Hitachiin poking my shoulder.
"What?" I mumbled.
"Nothing," The orange haired teen said innocently.
I groan and placed my head back on the desk. It was probably 10 seconds 'til I felt another poke but this time it was on my left. I turned my head to see the other twin.
"Hai?"
"Oh, nothing." The twin said in a sweet tone.
"Shouldn't you guys be at the Host Club?" I asked sleepily.
They just shrugged.
"It's more fun bothering you while you try to sleep," They said in unison.
"You can leave now," Sensei said when he walked into the room.
I only got to get up halfway before the twins grabbed both my arms and dashed out, dragging me behind them. I didn't know how they did it but we reached the double doors of the 3rd music room in only a few seconds. Hikaru and Kaoru burst opened the door still holding onto my arms.
"We're heeeere~!" They said in unison.
"You're late," Kyouya said without looking up from his black note book.
"Gomen! Rin had detention!" Koaru said.
"Don't be late next time." Kyouya said his voice low.
He gestured me to a table where there were girls seated in comfy couches. I guess that was my table and customers.
I walked over to the table and sat down. "I guess I'm your type?" I asked my facial expression screaming out boredom.
The girls nodded and a each of them wore a blush on their faces.
I didn't talk much. Other than answering questions from the customers, that was all the talking I did. Soon the girls knew that I wasn't going to talk so they just kept on asking me questions to get me to speak.
"Rin-kun, why did you join the host club?" One of the girls asked.
I saw Kyouya looked over at me. I didn't want to know what he'll do if I told the customers that I got in because I found out that Haruhi was a girl so I gave everyone a dreamy look.
"Didn't you request for me?" I asked my voice smooth and soft.
Instantly a blush crept over everyone's faces and two probably fainted. I saw Kyouya nod and write something in his notebook. Just then, I saw Aiko bounce over to me.
"HI!" She clearly was high on sugar when I saw a stack of cakes over at Hunny's table.
"Good to see you, Aiko."I said to her.
"It looks like you and Aiko have a strong bond."One of my customers said quietly.
I gave a nod.
"Could it be like the twin's forbidden brotherly love?" Another girl asked excitedly.
"I do love her very much and we really do care for each other, but I'm afriad there isn't more than that. Gomenasai if you were hoping for something like the twins." I said my voice soft.
I then turned to Aiko who was already gone skipping back towards Hunny's table. I looked around the room watching the other hosts do their thing. When I shifted my gaze to Koaru and Hikaru, they had a cookie in their mouth and was a inch away from kissing. My eyes widen but they broke the cookie before their lips touched, the girls from their table squealed at the scene. Imagine me and Aiko doing that.
So after all the questioning and anwsering was finished, Host Club hours was closed. I plopped myself onto one of the fluffy couches and looked at Aiko with a tired and bored expression. She just giggled and nodded, saying that she was also tired probably from bouncing around the room high on sugar.
"First day and you did pretty good. Keep up the good work, there's more people requesting for you now," Kyouya said.
"RIN IS STEALING ALL MY PRINCESSES AWAY FROM ME!" Tamaki cried.
"No, they just decided that they couldn't put up with your drama and made a right choice to move away from you." I dead pan.
Tamaki went over to sulk in a corner drawing circles with his index finger on the floor. "So cruel..." He muttered.
The twins burst out laughing. "Nice job Rin, you got boss to run over to his little emo corner," They laughed.
"Rin, we should be leaving," Aiko said.
"Hai, let's go," I said.
"Ja!" Akio called out.
"Ja," I said before turning away.
When we left the room I notice that there was something bothering Aiko. I didn't bother asking until we reached the limo that was waiting to pick us up.
"Aik, are you feeling alright?" I asked worriedly.
"What will happen if the Host Club finds out?" She asked biting her lower lip.
"Are you going to continue with this?" Aiko continued.
It took awhile for me to answer, but afterwards I said, "I don't know, I'm not sure if I should tell them or not," I said, unsure.
"They may end up finding out themselves, though I doubt that."
Akio just nodded.
"I'm okay with whatever. Auntie and Uncle will too and-"
She paused. I just nodded understanding her point, but I really wasn't sure.
