Katherina wandered around the flower garden in Ouran High. She was dropped off an hour early and the only interesting thing she can do was look at the garden.

She looked up at the cherry blossoms and took a deep breath. She just loved scent of the cherry blossoms, she found it calming. Her eyes closed and she just stood there, taking deep breaths. Suddenly, a petal landed on her lips, making her snap out of her short meditation to take the petal off.

"Out of all places you could've landed on," Katherina muttered to the petal. She let it go and watched it fall to the ground.

She walked away and scoffed, "A kiss from a cherry blossom petal, huh."

"Honey!" Katherina yelled from across the hallway. The little boy that clung onto Mori's shoulder turned his head and smiled.

He waved at her, "Rina-chan!" Mori stopped walking and turned around when Honey told him to. They watched her run to them and thought how the hallways became livelier ever since she transferred a month ago.

"Good morning, Honey! Mori-san!" she greeted them.

"G'mornin, Rina-chan!" Honey grinned.

Mori muttered a good morning and then picked Katherina up, placing her on his other shoulder. He's been doing this since Honey requested him to ever since he noticed how she wasn't the fastest walker.

"Thanks, Mori-san!" The girl laughed. "Don't you think we're heavy though? You've been doing this for weeks now."

"It's nothing."

Honey said, "You're not the fastest walker, so I requested him to do this everyday!"

"Hey! I walk fast for a short girl like me!" Katherina puffed out her cheeks. "It's just that Mori is pretty tall and obviously has long legs!"

"Either way," Honey giggled. "You're slow! When I watch you walk, I could see sloths walking past you."

Katherina furrowed her eyebrows, "But sloths are slow."

"Exactly," Mori deadpanned.

"I'm not that slow!" Katherina whined.

Honey ruffled her hair and just have her a big smile. "It sounds just as impossible as you achieving your height goal~!"

"You're so mean," the girl pouted. Honey's smile disappeared for a second and then came back, but even wider.

"Oh come on!" He laughed. "I was just kidding~!"

Katherina glared at him and then pinched his cheeks. "You're gonna eat my dust sooner or later," she said.

"Is that a challenge, Rina-chan?" Honey asked.

"I guess so," she smirked. The girl looked ahead and noticed that they just arrived in their class. "Oh wow. We came here fast!"

Honey teased, "It's because you're not walking, silly!"

"You little brat," Katherina scowled, jumping off of Mori.

The trio entered the classroom and was bombarded with greetings from their fellow classmates.

"Good morning, guys!" Katherina greeted them back, taking her seat next to the window.

"The teacher won't be here today," Honey said.

Katherina clapped her hands, "Yes! I can still finish my English work!"

"You're having trouble when you can speak fluently?" Honey asked. "Is it that hard?"

"It's not," she smiled sheepishly. "It's just I procrastinate a lot! I should really change my study habits though."

Honey put his head down and faced her. "Wow, and you still ace the rest of the subjects! You must be really smart!"

"I heard you were really smart too! Especially when you focus on a lot of things like the Host Club and martial arts."

The boy gasped, "Speaking of the club, have you decided what to join?"

Katherina nodded, "I'm planning to join the archery club! You can join multiple clubs, right?"

"Mhmm!" Honey answered. His eyes shone in delight, "Are you also planning to join the Host Club?"

"I'm sure it'll be fun hosting with you guys!" she said, giving him thumbs up. Honey jumped out of his desk and jumped on her.

Honey cheered, "Yaaay! Rina-chan will be the first ever hostess! Isn't that exciting, Takashi?"

"Yes," Mori answered with a small smile. It was probably the biggest smile that Katherina saw from him.

Students walked over to the two and gushed about it.

'Oh my! Is it true, Rina-san?'

'I'll make sure to request you next time I go there!'

Katherina laughed, "I haven't officially joined the club. I still have to talk to Tamaki and Kyoyo."

"How about at lunch period?" Honey asked.

"I can't," she frowned. "I have to show my archery skills to the president of the Archery Club so I can join."

The boy pouted, "Whaat? So you won't be eating cake with me and Takashi?"

"You know this is important, Honey!" Katherina wrinkled her nose and pinched his cheeks.

"Can we watch you?" he asked excitedly.

Katherina nodded, "Sure! Cheer me on! Anyone can go!"

The students began to gush again about how they're going to watch and support her. Katherina and Honey looked at each other and giggled.

The third-year trio walked out to the field, where the try-outs for the Archery Club was held at. Right behind them was a crowd of the students that had promised they would come and support her.

"It's just the try-outs," Katherina sighed. "I didn't expect this much of a crowd, but then again, I invited them."

"It's nice to have a lot of support, Rina-chan~!" Honey said, looking down at Katherina who decided to walk on her own instead of being carried.

The girl stopped abruptly and gave him a small smile that did not seem to reach her eyes. "I guess that's good! I've never really had support from anyone in years," she said. "Ever since my brothers left to spread the business!"

Honey stared at her for awhile and jumped off of Mori, landing right next to her. He gave her the biggest hug and said, "You have me!"

"Of course, I do!"

"And everyone else, right, Takashi?" Honey added. Mori nodded.

As soon as they met up with the club president, Yuuichi Tachibana, the try-outs began. Katherina looked at the variety of bows, carefully choosing the perfect one, which was pretty complicated since she was pretty picky.

"I wish I could've brought my own," the girl muttered under her breath. She decided to pick a random one and grabbed the quiver filled with arrows which she slung it on her back.

"My, that's a difficult bow you got there," Yuuichi said. "Are you sure?"

Katherina shrugged, "Yeah."

Everyone cheered when she got to her place. She looked at all the targets, each targets were place 50m away from each other, the furthest of 200m.

"That's not all. There are also moving targets, which you will be doing after passing this," the club president said smugly.

"Don't you think this is too much just for a try-out?" Katherina chuckled. "I wouldn't be surprised if it consisted of mounted archery."

Yuuichi patted her shoulder. "Well. This is the Archery Club."

"True, true."

The crowd including the whole Host Club watched in anticipation as Katherina nocked the arrow back ever so slowly.

"Is she doing that just to mess with everyone?" Hikaru blurted out.

Kaoru shouted, "Oi! Rina-senpai! Just let go of the arrow already!"

Haruhi hit him and scolded him, "Will you quit it? She needs to focus!"

"I've heard she was the best, but I truly wanna see her skills when she faces the moving targets," Kyoyo said as he fixed his glasses.

The girl turned her head and looked at them. "Hey!" she gasped, letting go of the arrow without focusing on the target. "When did you guys get here?"

"H-how did you do that?" Yuuichi asked in shock, gesturing to the arrow in the bull's eye.

Katherina smiled, "Luck?" She continued to shoot her arrows, each of them perfectly hitting the bull's eye except for the last target.

"That's okay, my daughter!" Tamaki cooed as he enveloped her in his arms. "You're still the amazing Katherina Daddy knows!"

The girl gasped and stared into Tamaki's violet eyes. "Tamaki! I want to join the Host Club!"

"D-did you here that, Mommy?" Tamaki stammered. "She said she wants to be just like us!"

"We will absolutely let you in," Kyoya said. "Seeing that the Rina album has been sold out, you might be a big asset in the Host Club's finance."

Haruhi sweat dropped. "Of course he'd take her in for the money. Greedy bastard."

"Rina-senpai's popular anyways," the twins said in unison. "She'd bring many customers to us." They gestured to the crowd.

Honey tore Tamaki and Katherina apart. "C'mon Rina-chan! They're done setting up all the moving targets! We need to hurry quick so we can eat cake together!"

§ • § • §

"You were amazing, Rina-chan!" Honey gushed before eating a huge piece of strawberry cake. "Yuu-chan really stepped down and asked you to replace him!"

Katherina smiled, "Thank you! I got my first bow when I was six."

"Are you going to take over the club?" the little boy asked.

"No. Too much work and responsibility. I'm also not the leader type," Katherina said. "Man! I'm so exhausted. I don't think it's necessary for them to make me shoot that many targets."

Honey put his fork down on his empty plate. "But you passed! You were really amazing. Takashi was also impressed." Mori slightly nodded.

Katherina quietly blushed from the compliments. "Thank you. I'm pretty sure I'd react the same way when I see you both do your thing!"

"Maybe we will show you!" Honey said. "If you have time to come over at my house!"

"Say! Capoeira is also a type of martial arts! Maybe we can fight! Your style and my style!" Katherina gushed in excitement.

Mori advised, "I do not recommend that. You'll get yourself hurt."

"It's fine, it's fine! Just as long as Honey goes easy on me," the girl laughed.

"Yeah! I'll go easy! I can never hurt Rina-chan," Honey said with a lot of seriousness at the last sentence.

Katherina stood up from her desk and excused herself to go to the bathroom. When she went inside a stall, a few girls entered the bathroom.

"Who does she think she is?" Girl 1 gasped. "Sticking to Honey-senpai and Mori-senpai as if she knew them. She just transferred here a month ago."

Katherina listened to the girls' conversation, quietly closing the toilet lid and sitting down. She was intrigued about what they were saying about her.

Girl 2 growled, "She's just a pest. Pretty much bothering the boys."

'Um. Excuse me?' Katherina thought.

"We need a plan to get rid of her," Girl 3 suggested.

Girl 2 agreed, "Yeah. We should start a fake scandal about her."

"Like what?" Girl 1 asked.

Katherina rolled her eyes and stood up from the toilet. She quickly opened the stall door and revealed herself.

"Pretty much anything," she suggested, surprising the girls. "Just make sure to leave the others out of it."

"Oh it's you," Girl 2 sneered.

"It's me alright," Katherina said smugly, opening her arms. "So? How bad will it be? The scandal?"

Girl 1 glared at her. "Bad enough to make you leave this school."

"Huh. Will it really affect me?" Katherina asked. "Imagine. If you spread this 'scandal' to the whole school, all the attention that you want will be on me. I could just tell them truth about it being false. Kyoya will track it down and everything will just lead up to you. What happens if you've been revealed?"

Katherina got closer to Girl 1 in a threatening way. "Everything will backfire. In the end, the only thing that will spread around Ouran will be about some pests leaving school for being — well, pests."

Girl 1 trembled and all of the sudden, a slap echoed throughout the bathroom. Katherina just stood there, black tendrils covering her face as she looked down at the ground to her left. She had been slapped.

"Ouch," Katherina said monotonously as she rubbed her cheek. She let out a sigh, "I'm not stopping any of you. Carry on with your stupid gossips." She left the bathroom and walked down the hall.

The girl frowned, "That was the only bathroom I know on this floor and I need to go so bad."


Hey! It's me, Elina! I just wanted to thank everyone who reviewed and followed/favorited this story. The four reviews that I received was pretty heartwarming, even though it was just a command for an update. It made me so happy knowing you guys liked it! I hope you guys give me an honest opinion about the story. I don't really mind if it's something bad so that way I can fix the story in the future.

Anywho, I think that this story is going pretty fast, but it's just me so whatever. I totally forgot to do the disclaimers that everyone usually puts before the story starts. But using your common sense, you know I definitely do not own OHSHC. I own Katherina.

I started writing this story because I fell in love with Honey. Oh lord. It's weird that he looks/sounds/acts like a kid, but I find him pretty attractive. Especially with the whole martial arts thing. Oh lord, oh lord.

Okay! Just a little notice, I update every three or four days! If I'm on a roll, then maybe less than that! Time to write Chapter Four now~!
