and Gals! Crossover

When I'm With You

Chapter 3- Get Over It

Aya tossed and turned in her bed as she tried to get some sleep, but she couldn't. She kept thinking about the events that had happened during the day. The Host Club had come and they had met her friends.

As the wind blew on her window, Aya opened her eyes for the hundreth time. She inhaled and exhaled slowly as she stared at the blank white ceiling that was above her.

It didn't bother her that the Host Club had met her friends.

What disturbed her was that Rei left as soon as he saw her.

After The Twins had pulled her out the park, her friends and the Host Club followed them, but Rei Otohata wasn't with them. He had left.

Aya turned to face the door of her room. Beside the door, her yellow Ouran dress hanged on a hanger.

She sighed. Kyouya had given her that dress since she couldn't afford.

Aya turned herself to face the window.

What would she do without the Host Club?

Thanks to them, she was finally able to find some happiness in her life again. There was not a day that they didn't make her smile, laugh, or feel happy. She was so glad that she had met them because if she hadn't, she would probably more depressed than she already was.

She remembered when she was crying in front of the Host Club's Music Room and Kyouya had seen her. Instead of questioning her, he simply gave her a hankercheif.

Aya looked at the night table that was beside her bed and reached her hand to it. She slowly grabbed the hankercheif she had placed there earlier.

Looking closely at it, Aya carefully held it in her palm.

In the bottom of the left corner, she could see Kyouya's initials.

K.O.

Even though her room was dark, she could still see Kyouya's initials.

Aya sighed. Kyouya was such a mysterious fellow. From the Host Club, he was the only one that was pretty serious and 'normal'. Kyouya also had the strange habit of writing in that black journal of his. She had asked him what he would write and he simply said 'Everything and anything.' He also was the vice-president of the Host Club and the one who would manage the money. Of course, he would handle the money since he was very smart.

Aya quietly laughed to herself as she raised the hankercheif from her eyes.

Why was she thinking about Kyouya Ootori?

He was very handsome and he was very kind to her, but that was it. Nothing more.

Aya sighed as she laid the hankercheif over her face.

Kyouya Ootori, for some strange reason, reminded her of Rei Otohata.

Ootori.

Otohata.

With the hankercheif over her face, Aya finally closed her eyes as her watch ticked.

Ootori and Otohata. Even there last names sound alike.

As Aya slept, the watch continued to tick.

Tick. Tock. Tick. Tick. Tock.

Until morning finally arrived...

The yellow bright sun rays hit Aya's face as smell of breakfast ran through Aya's nostrils. Aya groaned since it felt like she didn't sleep one bit.

She had slept for about 3 hours.

Aya streched her hands as far as she could and streched her feet as well. With her eyes half open, she looked at the clock that hung on her white wall above her desk.

It was about to be 8 o' clock.

Aya groaned as she lazily sat up on her bed. She really wasn't a morning person.

"Five more minutes," Aya suddenly said as she dropped herself back on the bed and covered herself with her pink bed sheets. She felt so comfortable in her bed.

She wanted to sleep, but why couldn't she sleep at night?

Why?

Because you spent all night thinking about Rei, Aya!

Then Aya looked beside her pillow and there laid Kyouya's hankercheif.

Aya sighed, pulled off her bed sheets, and got up.

She had to get ready for school, so she went to the bathroom.

Meanwhile, Aya's mother was busy downstairs making breakfast and attending the guest, so when she finally heard Aya coming from downstairs, she was relived.

"Oh, Aya! You look so cute in that Ouran dress!" Aya's mother commented sweetly.

Aya stood in front of the kitchen and she looked down at her dress. She ruffled it down and looked at her mother.

Her mother always told her that.

"Thank you, Mother," Aya said with a lack of interest as she rolled her eyes.

Aya's mother smiled.

"I agree with your mother, Hoshino-san."

As soon as she heard that voice, Aya flinched.

She only knew one person that called her Hoshino-san.

As he walked out of the living room, Kyouya Ootori stood in front of Aya.

Aya stared at Kyouya as he adjusted his glasses in his face.

What was he doing in her house at this hour!

"Kyouya Senpai? What are you doing here?" Aya asked as she blushed like crazy. She didn't know what to say or do. She didn't understand what Kyouya was doing at her house.

"Well," Kyouya started as he smirked with mischief. "I decided to stop by for a visit."

Aya blushed even more. Kyouya wasn't being serious.

Cleaning her hands on her apron, Aya's mother came out of the kitchen. "Sweetie, he offered to take you to school!"

Shocked, Aya's eyes got wide. "Oh, no! Kyouya senpai! Please don't bother. I have a ride. Don't worry about me! I'm fine!"

"Aya, I think it's a good idea!" Aya's mother insisted. "Riding the bus isn't safe for a girl dressed like that."

Aya's mother got close to Aya and whispered. "There are many weirdos out there. It's not safe."

Aya considered Kyouya a 'weirdo.'

Laughing and smiling, Aya's mother patted Aya on the back. "Go with Kyouya, dear. He's a good fellow."

Aya smiled a little worried. Her mother didn't even know Kyouya and yet, she called him a good fellow. Aya sighed, but it was pointless arguing.

"Okay, mother." Aya quietly agreed as she blushed.

Aya's mother nodded.

"Well, then," Kyouya suddenly said as he walked ahead of Aya. "Let's go."

"Umm, I-" Aya started she really wanted to eat breakfast, but Kyouya was already outside. Aya sighed as she quickly adjusted her backpack in her arm.

"Well, Mother, I'm going now."

Aya's mother nodded. "Okay, sweetie. Be safe!"

Aya clenched her teeth. She tells her to be safe, but sends her to school with a stranger.

"Sure thing, mother." Aya replied as she gave her mom a hug and a peck on the cheek.

For some strange reason, Aya didn't want to let go of her mom.

"Okay. Kyouya's is waiting for you. Go with him." Aya's mother said as she broke up the hug.

Aya smiled as she nodded. "Okay! See you later, mom! Be safe." Aya said as she walked out the door, but then turned around again to face her mother. "I love you!"

Aya's mother smiled. "Me too!"

As she closed the door, Aya looked at Kyouya who was leaning on his black shiney car. It was really beautiful and it looked new. Aya took a deep breathe as she walked toward him.

Kyouya walked to the other side of the car as his driver, wearing a black suit, opened the door for her. Aya slowly got in the car. As she got inside, she found herself sitting beside Kyouya.

Aya's heart began to thump really load as her mind began screaming like crazy.

Sitting next to Ootori, made her feel very uncomfortable. She wanted to run outside and go to the bus stop.

Of course, she wouldn't do it.

"Are you hungry?" Kyouya suddenly asked which caused Aya to jump in surprisement.

"No! No! Please, don't worry about me!" Aya said even though she was starving. To make matters worse, she had forgotton to pack her lunch.

She would have to wait until she got home from school.

The driver got into his seat, turned on the car, and began to slowly drive away.

As the car drove away, Aya turned to look at her house.

Then, for some strange reason, Aya's chest began to feel heavy.

"Oh, Tamaki! The sun feels so good and warm today!"

"You are the one that's brights up the day, my princess!"

"I'm so glad we can spend this day together!"

Tamaki brushed the girl's hair with his long fingers. "You don't know the joy I feel by being with you, princess."

"Oh, Tamaki!" The girl said as she blushed her face off.

Aya sighed. It was a typical day in the Host Club, but instead of being inside the club, they were outside having a tea party and she was the one serving the tea, coffee, or sweets.

Of course, she would serve the tea. She was the maid, after all.

Aya walked beside the tables as she cleaned up.

"Oh, Hikaru and Kaoru! You guys look so adorable in those outfits!"

Shifting her eyes towards The Twins, sitting in a nearby table, Aya really didn't see their clothes attractive. They looked like wild motorcycle drivers to Aya.

Aya tried her best to hold her laughter.

"Thank you, Ladies." Hikaru replied. "I did enjoy dressing up Kaoru."

Kaoru blushed as he looked at Hikaru. "Hikaru! I don't like it when you say stuff like that!"

Hikaru smirked as he placed his finger on Kaoru's chin and got near his face.

"Oh, really?" Hikaru asked. "But you do like when I undress you."

Kaoru closed his eyes. "Oh, Hikaru."

The girls all around them began to squeal with delight. "Oh! Brotherly Love!" They said at once.

Aya sighed as she smiled to herself. They all dripped with personality while she lacked it.

As she sighed to herself, Aya looked at the sky. It was so beautiful and sun felt so warm on her skin. She loved it when days were like these.

"Hey, Aya."

Aya turned around to see who was talking to her.

"Oh! Hello, Haruhi!" Aya looked at Haruhi. She was all by herself. "You don't have any customers today?"

"Eh? Oh, yeah. I did, but there gone now." Haruhi replied with a small smile.

Aya giggled. "It must be hard being a boy and being chased by girls."

Haruhi smiled as she walked under a tree and sat down on the soft grass. Aya smiled, walked toward Haruhi, and sat down next to her.

The breeze blew on them and the tree's leaves.

"At first," Haruhi bagan. "It was kinda of hard and annoying, but I got used to it. I don't think it's that bad. I kind of like it, to be honest."

Aya nodded. "Yeah. I'm so glad that I'm with the Host Club, too! I haven't been this happy in a long time."

"Really? Why weren't you happy before?" Haruhi asked her.

Aya sighed. Rei was the reason.

Kyouya had been walking along when he heard Haruhi and Aya talking. He decided to listen for a bit as he hid from their sight.

"Aya?" Haruhi asked concerned. "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to."

Aya shook her head quickly as her hands trembled. "No. I want to tell you."

Haruhi didn't see Aya ready.

"I'm in love with Rei Otohata." Aya said quietly and quickly as Kyouya clenched his fists.

"Rei Otohata?" Haruhi questioned as she looked at Aya. She had tears in her eyes. "He was the guy you were sitting next to in the picture, right?"

Aya nodded quietly. "Yes. We were going out in that time."

Haruhi didn't quite understand. In the picture, they didn't look happy at all.

"But," Aya continued. "He went out with me out of pity."

As she played with the grass she sat on, Haruhi listened to Aya's story.

"Ran would tell him to go out with me and he would. He was forced to take me on dates and places. He never took me out from his will. When Ran would ask him to take me out, I guess he would feel obliagted. He never cared about me. He just pretended to like me."

"He liked my friend Ran. He probably still does." Aya continued as she began to cry.

"Wait. Wait, Aya. Don't jump yourself to conclusions. You don't know if he likes Ran or not. "

Aya shook her head and tried to stop crying. "Haruhi, I am not jumping to conclusions. I know. He would reject me many times because he liked Ran. He told me that he liked Ran the day before I moved to Ouran."

Haruhi didn't know what to say. She knew nothing about love or guys.

"He was always very mean with me. He would call me a burden, a bother. Rei hates me!" Aya cried as she buried her face in her hands. She hadn't cried like this in a long time.

Patting Aya's back, Haruhi sighed. "Aya, it's okay. We're here for you and I'm going to help you move on. It's not going to be easy, but I promise that if you put the effort, you will be able to forget about that Otohata."

Aya nodded as she pulled out Kyouya's hankercheif, again. She carefully whiped her tears and took a deep breathe. "I hope so."

"Trust me. Time heals."

Time heals.

Aya had heard that phrase many times. "But," Aya continued. "What if it doesn't?"

Haruhi shrugged. "My mother died ten years ago and to this very day, I still miss her. It's hard to move on, but you need to try."

Aya stood in silence. She had no idea that Haruhi's mom was dead.

She looked at Haruhi. "I'm so sorry about that."

Haruhi smiled. "Don't worry about it. I just wanted to make a point."

Since that very moment, Aya admired Haruhi. She was so strong and so nice.

"Thank you, very much for your advice. I'm determined to forget about Rei even if I have to pull my heart out in the process!"

Haruhi sighed. Aya didn't understand what she was trying to say.

After hearing Aya's story, Kyouya hated Rei Otohata more than ever.

"Ah! There you guys are."

Haruhi quickly turned around and stood up while Aya whiped her face.

"Tamaki senpai? Kyouya senpai?" Haruhi said. "What do you want?"

"My Dear Haruhi," Tamaki said as he grabbed Haruhi's hand. "It's time to go!"

Tamaki pulled Haruhi out of the garden, leaving Kyouya and Aya behind. Then Tamaki suddenly turned around again and pointed at Aya. "Don't forget to clean up, Maid-chan!"

Maid-chan? Guess that's my new nickname.

Aya stood up quietly and looked at Kyouya senpai. He was holding his journal with one hand and adjusting his glasses with the other hand.

To Aya, Kyouya was such a mysterious fellow.

"Well, Hoshino-san?" Kyouya said snapping Aya from her thoughts.

"Should we get going as well?"

Aya nodded franticly. "Ah! Of course! But I have to clean-"

Kyouya shook his hand. "Ignore him."

Aya hesitated as he watched Kyouya senpai leave. She looked at the tables that were quite dirty. She was hired as the maid as her punishment.

Aya sighed as she decided to go and clean up the tables.

As she cleaned up, Aya thought about what Haruhi had said.

Time heals.

Could that be true? Would she be able to forget about Rei as time goes on?

Aya sighed as she collected the tea cups from the table and placed them on the cart she had.

One day...

I'll be able to say...

That I used to be in love...

With Rei Otohata.

...

Aya quickly ran out the doors of Ouran Acadamy.

It was past 5 o' clock. If she didn't hurry she would miss her bus. She wanted to get home as soon as possible so she could eat and see her mom.

She had worried about her mother all day. Aya thought it was because Haruhi said that her mom had died. Aya wouldn't know what to do with her mom.

As Aya reached the bus stop, she tried to catch her breathe. She bent and leaned her hands on her knees as she took deep breathes. Then she looked up and saw the bus at a distance.

She had missed it!

"Oh no!" Aya exclaimed. She was about to run after it when someone grabbed her hand. She quickly tried to let herself go.

"That bus isn't going to come back."

Aya knew that voice.

"I"ll be glad to take you home, Hoshino-san."

It was the same voice from the morning. Kyouya Ootori.

Aya quickly took her hand away from Kyouya as she blushed a deep color of red.

"No! No! It's okay! Don't worry about me! I'll find another way!" Aya insisted.

"Really?" Kyouya asked as he adjusted his glasses.

Aya placed her hand on her forehead as she thought. There was no other way for her to get home. Why did she say that?

The cold breeze blew on Aya's yellow Ouran dress as she continued to ponder.

"Well, Okay then." Kyouya said at last as he began to walk away.

Aya couldn't let him leave! If he left, she'd have no way to get home! By saying this in her mind, isn't going to stop Kyouya from leaving. She has to speak for herself and out loud.

"Kyouya senpai!" Aya exclaimed as Kyouya was about to get inside the car.

"What is it, Hoshino-san" Kyouya said as he smirked to himself.

Aya sighed with emberressment. "Can you please take me home, Kyouya senpai?" Aya said quietly and shyly.

"Come along then." Kyouya replied.

Aya smiled as she walked toward him and the car. The driver opened the door for Aya once again. She quickly got in since she was feeling a little cold.

As she sat down, Aya fixed and ruffled her dress while Kyouya looked outside the window.

She was sitting next to Kyouya.

Without a word, the driver sat down and drove away.

Again in this akward situation.

The rest of the way, they rode in complete silence.

After a 30 minutes or so, they had arrived in Shibuya. Aya looked around and saw that they were near the park. She really didn't want to bother Kyouya any longer.

"Mr. Driver, you may stop here." Aya quietly said without looking at Kyouya.

The driver did what he was told. Aya smiled to herself. The driver seemed like a robot.

She quickly got off the car, closed the car's door, and began to walk away at a very fast speed. She was walking with her head looking at the ground. Then she stopped and very slowly looked up.

She saw Kyouya's car at a distance. It had drove away.

She sighed with relief as she placed her bag around her arm. Aya continued to walk but at a much slower pace.

Deep down in her heart, she thought that Kyouya would stop her from getting off the car.

He didn't. He had let her get off.

Aya suddenly stop walking.

Did she want Kyouya to stop her?

"You shouldn't stand by yourself. You could get kiddnapped."

Aya jumped as she quickly turned around.

Her eyes got wide with surprisement.

"Kyouya senpai! What are you doing here? I thought you had left and-I-" Aya stuttered as she tried to find the right words.

"Well, are you finished?" Kyouya asked as he lifted an eyebrow.

"Kyouya senpai, what are you doing here?" She asked again.

"Came to walk you home. So, let's go." He said as he grabbed Aya's hand.

He got off the car to come after her.

Aya blushed madly as she saw Kyouya's hand hold hers and as they walked together down the street.

They walked in complete silence.

Kyouya walked in front of her as she walked behind him. Aya secretly smiled to herself. She didn't understand why her heart was thumping really fast. She didn't understand why her cheeks felt warm. She didn't understand why she felt happy, but she didn't care.

Kyouya made her forget everything and everyone.

Aya smiled again to herself.

Last night, she had compared Kyouya and Rei. She thought that they were alike. They are both mysterous and very unexpecting. She even thought that their last names sounded alike.

Ootori.

Otohata.

Then she realized something right now.

Ootori and Otohata were nothing alike.

Otohata would never hold her hand like the way Kyouya was.

Just then, someone bumped into Aya snapping he out of her thoughts. Aya stumbled and bumped into Kyouya's back.

"Oh! I'm so sorry, Miss!" The guy said as he contiued to run.

Then she and Kyouya realized everyone around them were running in the same direction as the guy was.

Aya's heart began thump like crazy.

"I wonder what's going on," She said to Kyouya.

"Aya?"

"Y-Yes?" Aya said alarmed. It was the first time Kyouya called her Aya. He would usually call her Hoshino-san.

"Isn't your house in that direction?" Kyouya asked seriously.

Aya's eyes got wide as she began to tremble. Her house was in that direction that everyone was running to. Something bad was happening in that direction.

Aya dropped her bag and began to run with everyone else.

Something bad was happening.

As Aya ran, Kyouya followed her.

Then Aya realized that they were running to her house.

Why are they running to my house! What's happening?

Aya didn't stop running until she saw her house.

Aya's breathe increased as she saw the scene. She stood there in shock as Kyouya finally caught up to her. He looked in Aya's direction.

Aya's house was covered in flames.

Her house was on fire.

She looked around. Aya saw fire trucks, polices, and her neighbors. She saw people she didn't even know trying to put out the gigantic flames.

The person she was looking for wasn't anywhere in sight.

She spotted Ran, Miyu, Yuuya, and Rei at a distance. Then they began to run toward her.

Aya didn't care about them right now.

She was looking for her mother.

"MOTHER!" Aya screamed as she was about to run inside. She was stopped by Kyouya, of course. Aya squirmed as Kyouya held on to her from the waist.

"KYOUYA! LET ME GO! MY MOTHER IS IN THERE! SHE'S INSIDE!" Aya screamed as she hit and kicked Kyouya to let her go.

"No, Aya! It's too dangerous!" Kyouya would yell over everyone elses screams.

"I DON'T CARE! LET ME GO! I HAVE TO SAVE HER!" Aya cried as she continued to squirm in Kyouya's arms. He was to strong for her.

"No Aya! I won't let you!"

"WHY! WHY! MY MOM NEEDS ME! SHE NEEDS ME! LET ME GO, KYOUYA!" Aya insisted.

Then she suddenly stopped squirming and moving around.

She started crying. "Kyouya. My mother. She's in there. She's in there."

"Aya. Calm down. Maybe she's in the store or something-"

"NO! My mom doesn't leave the house!" Aya cried louder as she trembled. "SHE'S IN THERE! PLEASE! LET ME GO TO HER!"

"No! Aya!" Kyouya yelled. "I'm sorry!"

Aya continued to cry as she gave up. Kyouya wasn't going to let her go find her mom.

She turned herself around as she hugged Kyouya tightly.

"Kyouya. My Mother! Someone needs to save her!" Aya cried as she trembled.

Kyouya hugged her back. "The firemen are going to save her, okay?"

Aya cried as she held on tight to Kyouya.

Her mother was in the fire! Someone save her!

She continued to cry as she heard her house collapse behind her back.

Mother, I'm sorry.

I love you.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story.

Pretty tragic, huh?
