Waltz
Kyouya had arranged for a music room similar to their old club's music room to be empty for the school year. They would be opening a "mini" host club. It would be open on weekends and on holidays. After Tamaki's rigorous begging, Kyouya added Suzume's name to the club list (A/N: they have to sign up and sign people into clubs using a form. Then, once it's all filled up, they sent it to the main office/building). Since it was still the morning (of Friday), Haruhi had enough time to cut Suzume's hair. They arrived at the music room, which was conveniently called the "3rd music room" and opened the door.
Everyone stopped what he was doing at the time. Suzume had completely changed. Haruhi had cut Suzume's hair into layers. Two pieces of hair fell onto Suzume's forehead and reached her nose. On either side of the two bangs, two smaller snips hung over the eyes. The layered hair framed her face, curving in slightly at mid-cheek. Underneath her face, Suzume's coal-black hair curved out a bit. The layers also curved a little, causing a fuller hair appearance. The bangs curved slightly right, thus covering her right eye more than her left. She looked more like a boy than Haruhi. Since Suzume was flat - like Haruhi-, she looked like a guy.
Suzume blushed a bit. "Do I still look like a girl?" she asked timidly.
"No, on the contrary you look like a boy," answered Kyouya, "Would you like to join our club? You're help would be quite useful."
Suzume grinned and said, "Would I ever! Tamaki has told me all about the Host Club! Wait, that's what you're starting, right? Really? Cool! Now, lemme see if I can name all of you. Um…Tamaki and Haruhi, of coarse…Kyouya, Honey-senpai, Mori-senpai, and you're Kaoru and you're Hikaru!" Hikaru and Kaoru were shocked.
"How-how did you know which one of us is which?" asked Hikaru cautiously.
"Oh, I have twin older brothers." Answered Suzume truthfully, "Adrien and Vincent. Nowadays, they're really busy, but when we were younger, they used to play a game with me"-the Hitachiin twins exchanged glances-"they called it 'The Which is Adrien' game. I always won, because if you looked at them in the eyes, you'd see Adrien had solid brown eyes and Vincent has flecks of gold in his. You guys have almost the same eyes. But, Kaoru, you have more emerald flecks in your eyes than Hikaru does. Also, Kaoru has a softer voice." The Hitachiin twins looked at each other, then at Suzume. Before she knew it, she was being tackle-glomped by the brothers. Hearts danced around them. Tamaki immediately roared, "Get away from my daughter, you beasts!"
The twins exchanged confused glances. "Whaddaya mean, milord?" asked Hikaru. "Isn't Haruhi your 'daughter'?" Kaoru added.
Tamaki nodded, but answered, "No, now she's got a sister! In the car, I didn't get to explain to Suzume. Also, with all this commotion, I forgot. Mom! Can we adopt Suzume?"
Kyouya adjusted his glasses, and replied, "Okay, it'll help with the finances. Welcome to the family, Suzume. Oh, and ignore Tamaki's 'nick name' for me."
"Oh you mean 'Mom'?" asked Suzume.
"Yes, just call me Kyouya."
"Okay...um Kyouya, don't we have class today?"
"No we don't" answered Honey-senpai, "We have class on Monday thru Thursday and a study hall on Sunday, but that's optional. Friday to Sunday we open our club. It'd be just like the old times!" He smiled happily and ate some of his strawberry shortcake.
"Ah, that reminds me, Suzume, won't we catch tuberculosis from you?" asked Kyouya. Everyone but Kyouya and Mori-senpai paled and backed up to the wall.
Suzume tucked her hands in her hoody and said, "No, this type of tuberculosis can't be transmitted. I just have to take my medicine every day so the bacteria doesnt multiply. If I get twice the amount of bacteria I have now, I'll fall into a coma."
"Suzume, how do you know that?" asked Haruhi cautiously, "Unless it's actually happened...No! It did? How can you be so calm about it? You have a disease that can fatally injure you! And you act as though it is a common cold!"
Suzume's black eyes flashed red for a split-second. "You don't think I know that?" asked Suzume slowly, "You don't think I've been surviving all these years just pretending? Pretending to be fine? My lungs are messed up! Look, the main reason I even considered coming here is because my mom gave me insurance that only activated when I was in Japan! I don't need people pestering me about something I already know about!"
Haruhi's eyes widened a little. She realized that Suzume's disease was a sore spot for her (Suzume). Haruhi made a mental note to never mention it if she had the choice to stay silent. "O-oh...I never knew..." murmured Haruhi, "Hey you know, I think you're my room mate." Suzume smiled and gave Haruhi a "thank-you-for-changing-the-subject" grin.
"Mom...do you see this? The first day of college..." started Suzume, "And I already have friends and an awesome roommate! Oh, but why is only Honey-senpai and Mori-senpai in their uniforms?"
"We have to wear our uniforms 24/7." answered Honey-senpai, "Oh, but not in your sleep! You can wear your own clothes! Don't worry Suzu-chan! You'll adjust! I just know it!"
Suzume nodded and said, "Well, let's switch into our uniforms before we get in trouble! And meet back here when you're done!" The others happily obliged.
"Kyouya, what do you think?" asked Tamaki as they headed out the door, "do you think she has what it takes?"
Kyouya was silent, then answered, "She displays flawless leadership skills, but uses them as a helper to others. I think she'll get many customers."
'No, Kyouya, not that you baka...' Tamaki thought, 'do you think she has what it takes to capture your heart?'
