CHAPTER 4

Back in Music Room #3, the members of the host club, minus Haruhi, were huddled around Kyoya and his laptop.

What were they look at?

Only Kimiko's information.

Scratch that. They were searching for her info.

Multiple 'Kimiko's, including one with a korean surname, popped up, but no 'Kimiko Itsuzuki' could be found.

"How very strange," Kyoya thought as he closed his computer. "How very strange indeed."

[The Following Day]

"I'll take some more tea when you can Kimi-senpai!" A female's voice rang above moderate chit-chatter.

"I'll be right there!" Our black-haired friend replied, exchanging her current teapot with one on her wheeled-cart.

She walked over, pouring the tea. Noting that Hunny was running low on sweets, she gave the room a once-over before heading into the Host Club's kitchen.

Kimiko selected a variety of cakes, including Hunny's favourite strawberry cake.

"Umph!" came from Kimiko, her head turning face-first into a broad chest.

She looked up to find charcoal eyes looking on her.

"Mianhae" Kimiko whispered. She was unable to tear her eyes away from his.

Neither forest green nor onyx lost connection, even as bubbly blonde came bouncing through the door.

"Taka-!" The boy prepared to speak. Upon viewing his cousin and the new girl in a stare-down, Hunny fell silent. "This could be interesting".

Unfortunately, the short-lived voicing had broken the two out of their daze.

"Ah, uh, M-mori-senpai," Kimiko tripped over her words, aware of the blush creeping onto her cheeks.

Hands on the cart, she pushed passed the stoic male to deliver snacks to the guests.

Rinsing off the remaining suds, Kimiko removed the rubber gloves and apron she had worn for cleaning.

Back in the front room the Hosts were huddled together, only dispersing once Kimiko exited the kitchen.

"I'll be leaving first" She announced as she gathered her things and shouldered her bag.

"Kimi-chan, wait!" A childlike voice rang through the room. Hunny bounded over. "Kyo-chan couldn't find anything about you, so would you stay and tell us about yourself, maybe like your past and how/why you decided to come to Ouran?"

Kimiko's eyes widened. "My past? Why I'm at Ouran? Would it be wise.." A million and one thoughts sprung throughout her mind. "Maybe I should just go. No. No more running." She scolded herself.

Silently bracing herself, Kimiko turned and nodded to Hunny. He latched onto her arm and lead her over to a couch. Haruhi sat to her left as Hunny joined her on the right. The twins had their heads on their hands as they leaned over the table across from them. Tamaki had pulled up a chair whilst Kyoya stood by Tamaki and Mori behind Hunny.

"Well, here goes nothing." Kimiko began her tale.

Notes: Thank you much for being patient with me. It is finals week, so I have been studying my ass off the past few weeks. Also, I'd love to hear your thoughts/opinions.
