Chapter 4

[Ciel's POV]

Crossing my arms across my chest I turn away from them and say "I refuse to wear such a ridiculous outfit you can't make me." Hikaoru starts "If you are going to be a host you are going to wear this outfit." Kaoru says "Even if we have to put it on you ourselves, and if I remember you didn't like it when we tried to dress you last time." I growl and say "Don't you dare even try to touch me you disgusting perverts!" they both say in unison "That's a little harsh Ciel don't you think?" I reply "No it's true because your disgusting and perverts." The chuckle and say "Ok you asked for it." They start pulling at my shirt causing me to yell "Fine just let go of me!" The laugh high fiving each other throwing the cos-play outfit and leave me to get dressed. I hated that they wanted me to dress in such weird outfits and now they want me to dress in some sort of Egyptian costume, idiots. Slipping on the outfit I look at myself in the mirror and scoff at my appearance, it reminds me of something Agni and Soma would wear.

When I come out of the dressing room the twins say "Now was that so hard Ciel, you look just fine even cute." I say "See what I mean perverts!" they sigh and they pat me on the head saying "So young and confused." Groaning I get away from the annoying twins and get together with the group waiting for the girls to arrive for club hours. The doors open but instead of the normal girls there stands a little boy a little younger then me who seems pretty confused; I bet he just has the wrong room, unless he is gay. Hikaoru says "Oh it's just a kid," Kaoru finishes the sentence "Not only that it's a boy." He falls back in confusion and at that Tamaki says "What's wrong little boy did you come to my palace searching for something?" The boy stands up and asks "Are you the king of this place?" Did he really just call him the king, that's going to get Tamaki pepped up. Tamaki replies "Come closer lost one." The kid asks "Well are you?" Tamaki starts up "What did you just call me little boy?" He says "King." Tamaki starts having a little dramatic fit and says "Yes I am the Ouran host club king, long live the host club king!" The little boy says "I am an elementary fifth year, Shiro Takoji and I want the host club king to take me on as an apprentice!" He points to Tamaki and the whole club seems to stop looking at him in confusion, why would such a young kid want to be a host.

"Oh my Tamaki you have an apprentice?" Tamaki's guest asks. Tamaki replies "Yes he is only an elementary student but I like the fire in his eyes." She asks "But are you sure it's ok if such a young kid becomes a host?" Tamaki takes her by her chin and says "Why wouldn't it be love has nothing to do with age. Take us for instance when I look into your eyes I feel like a love sick child." Looking towards them I shutter and say "Isn't it just a bit weird that Tamaki wants him to just sit there and watch them?" Kyoya says "Well Tamaki says sometimes when you look closer you seem to see more beauty and he seems to live by that rule. Well let's leave them alone." I turn away from them before chuckling when I hear Tamaki yelling at the kid and the girl is crying probably running away, I like the apprentice a lot now. Turning around I see the twins going on with their brother love act Shiro stands up in surprise and says "There homos and... and brothers that's insexuous!" Tamaki looks down on him and says "I think you meant incestuous." Honey jumps on top of Shiro and says "Hey Shiro you want to have a piece of cake with me? We have three kinds' chocolate, strawberry, and lime." He pushes Honey off and says "Hey why are you wearing a high school uniform what grade are you in anyways?" Poor confused kid he seems pretty confused with all that's going on. Mori comes up behind them and asks "Is something wrong Mitskuni?" Honey cowers onto Mori's back when Shiro says "That's not fair a little kid like you isn't supposed to have a cool older friend like him!"

Shiro backs away from them and bumps into Haruhi, she asks "Are you alright?" he turns around in surprise looking over her. Something tells me he doesn't buy the Haruhi is a boy act; it's not his fault that Haruhi actually looks like a girl. Haruhi continues "I know it's kind of hard getting used to all the weirdoes around here it took me a long time so don't freak out, I'm sure you'll get adjusted to it. Is something wrong?" He stares at her blankly until he lets out "Are you a cross dresser?" I knew he didn't buy it, but it doesn't take a smart person to see Haruhi is a girl. Tamaki and the twins rush over to them and Tamaki covers the kid's eyes saying "What do you mean by that he's a guy of course." The twins nervously laugh while saying "Wow Haruhi you look extra manly today. Just do what boss said and give the tea set to Shiro you're to macho for a tea set." I say while walking by "What a lame way to block a secret, even I could do better." They all glare daggers at me while I'm smiling acting all happy go lucky for ruining that. Haruhi hands Shiro the tea set and says "Be careful with that it's heavy." Right at her words he drops the set on the floor and says "It's not my fault I dropped it it's yours because you made me take it in the first place. Besides why don't you make the cross dresser do all you dirty work that isn't what I'm here for I'm here so you can teach me to make girls happy."

Tamaki says while twitching "You won't get anywhere with that attitude and I won't let you disrespect Haruhi, boys put him in isolation!" In perfect unison the twins say "You got it boss." and a cage drops from nowhere right around him, I better be careful I could be next if they want something from me. He yells "Hey what's going on here why did you put me in a cage all of a sudden?" Haruhi says "Yeah where did this even come from I thought this was a music room." Tamaki says "Well I thought you were serious about becoming a host but I guess I was wrong." Shiro says "I am serious I just need to know how to make women happy please, I'll run out of time." Hm run out of time, I think he is directing this towards one girl who is probably leaving if he says he will run out of time. I walk over to him and say "You really just want to make one girl happy don't you, that one girl is leaving isn't she; you are the one who said you're going to run out of time." He looks up at me with big eyes and says "How did you know kid?" I shrug and say "The wording helped me figure it out, it's not to hard to figure this out."

"You're a host because you like girls, you like bringing a smile to a girls face. That's why you do it right? Won't you teach me to be like you, you're the genius at it, the king?" Tamaki looks up at him and says "You may be a brat but I like your enthusiasm to become a host so I'll teach you." Shiro says in a happy tone "So you'll teach me to be the kind of host who can make any girl happy!" Tamaki replies "Of course making women happy is the main purpose of being a host. So Shiro we'll have to teach you to use the materials you already have." Shiro asks "What does that mean?" Kyoya says "Well in our club we each are categorized as a certain type for example there is Tamaki who is the princely type, the strong silent type, the boy Lolita type, the tragic type, the little devil type, and the cool type; it's all about variety. And now our group is complete with Haruhi the natural type." Haruhi questions "The natural?" while Kyoya finishes "Our group seems to be complete so it will be hard to find a type for you, Shiro." Hikaoru says "If you go by his age he would be the boy Lolita type." Kaoru says "But Honey already has that taken care of." Honey asks "Is he going to replace me?" in tears. Suddenly the ground starts to shake and rumble and I hear Renge say "Is that all you got?"

Renge rises from nowhere in some sort of machine and says "I'm sorry to interrupt boys but what is up with the lack of character definition. I'm really disappointed I thought I taught you better." Tamaki says while looking up to her "Alright Renge work your character magic if you think you can do better." She says "Well you don't seem to get that Shota can be broke down into many different categories. There are many girls that are into the boy Lolita type or baby faced kids, they'd be called Shota fans. If we break it down there are many types of categories, and if I had to choose on for him he'd be...yes! The naughty boy type," More like the bratty boy type but if this boy is going to be a host being called a brat won't get him anywhere. The cage lifts and Renge takes out a whistle and says "Ok to be naughty boy type he needs to be wearing shorts, and he needs some bumps and bruises; give him some scars!" The twins are sticking band-aids and drawing marks on the kid while Shiro is just sitting there with a confused expression. Renge suddenly blows a whistle and says "Now run like spoiled kid and trip, make it a big one!" He trips over a rope and Renge goes to his side and asks "Are you alright little boy?*Blows whistle* Now give them your catch phrase!" Shiro sits up and says "No big deal it was nothing." Renge says "Aww that was perfect absolutely perfect." Tamaki claps and says "That was outstanding I never knew you were such a great coach Renge."

Shiro rises up and yells "I've had enough of you people you're all a bunch of idiots, I don't see how any of this could help me get her. I'm running out of time!" He runs out of the room leaving the whole host club baffled. Tamaki says "Wait we haven't taught you how to use the techniques you've learned!" Renge descends and says "I swear little boys are a bunch of good for nothings. I went through all that trouble to coach him then him quits." Tamaki says "I can't believe he quit just because he didn't like the lesson what a little brat." I say "Not many people would enjoy that lesson but did you not hear the hints he was giving us. 'He is running out of time, none of it would help to get her.' He is talking about a girl he must like and I think for some reason he won't have much time to get this girl he might like." Tamaki says "Well we better take action and help him, as the host club we must make all girls happy; but this time we are helping a boy get a girl. So Haruhi, Honey, and Ciel we need you for something." I look at him in confusion until I get the message; he's going to make us sneak in cause we are the small ones. Sighing I say "Really, you're going to make us just because we're small enough to be taken as younger classes." He is grinning deviously and says "Something like that."

"We stick out so much what is the point of disguises?' Haruhi questions while looking down at her middle school outfit. I sigh and say "Why did he need me for this exactly? It would've been just fine without me having to following you guys around, it is not like I know this kid or anything like that." Haruhi replies "Well you are good with figuring stuff out so maybe they thought you could help find him or something, I don't know!" We walk through the hallway until we get to a small empty classroom with the host club following behind; why exactly did they make us dress up if they are going to walk around with us! "Huh, there is no one here." Tamaki says while walking in "So the kid's classroom is empty." I walk over to the back of the classroom to see a bunch of pictures that portrayed some of the students doing things like playing instruments. Suddenly Haruhi says "Teacher!" and we all get down looking towards Haruhi who whispers "Just zip it guys!" I guess someone was talking.

Once the teacher was gone we were exploring the classroom until Kyoya and Haruhi come to where I am and look at the pictures. "Hey look at this, it's Shiro he's in the classical music club." Haruhi says "So he must be in the club right now, right?" Tamaki says "We can go check." Walking down the hall we soon reach a room where some kids where sitting around talking and a piano is in the middle of the room. I spot Shiro sitting in the window staring out into space then a girl walks up to him and starts talking to her. The girl giggles before walking over to the grand piano and sits down preparing to start playing from what I could tell; I'm curious what she is going to play. A smile forms on Shiro's face when the girls start moving on the keys of the piano, it's pretty obvious that he likes this girl. Another girl walks out and Tamaki says "Hello young lady I've never seen such a beautiful rose as you, this is for you." he gives her a white rose and continues "Can you do me favor? Could you tell me about that girl playing the piano in there?" She replies "Oh her sure, that's Hina Kamishiro." Tamaki says "So her name is Hina." the girl replies "That's right but you better not fall in love with her." Tamaki asks "And why is that?" she says "Don't you know Hina is moving this weekend, her dad got a new job in Germany so they have to move."

We all look up when we hear Shiro yell "What do you think your doing? I want you idiots to leave immediately!" Tamaki picks up Shiro and we leave the scene with a screaming child and a couple confused kids watching us leave. Tamaki throws him on a couch in the music room causing him to yell "What is your problem you big idiot!" Tamaki says "I'm sorry but you're the idiot; you came to me asking to learn how to make women happy but that isn't it. You don't want to make women happy you want to make one single girl in mind and that is Hina Kamishiro." Shiro gasps and Tamaki continues "But I'm afraid there is nothing I can do to help you with that, listen Shiro I know I said it's the job of a host to make women happy but when you care for someone you have to find the courage to tell her how you feel. You didn't come to me wanting to become a full fledged host you wanted to become a full fledged man." Shiro replies "It doesn't matter anymore I've run out of time, all I wanted was to hear her play the piano once more before she left for good, that's all

Tamaki walks over to where there is a yellow curtain removing it to reveal a grand piano and he says "That piece she was playing, it was Mozart's Sonata D major for two pianos right?" Well then I guess we had a piano in here apparently, and I guess Tamaki can play the piano. Haruhi asks in confusion "When did we get a piano in here? I've never seen it before." Hikaoru says "Well it is a music room after all." and Kaoru finishes "So why wouldn't it have a piano." I say "It is a music room Haruhi most music rooms have one." Kyoya says "It is a music room after all." Mori says "It is a music room." and Honey finishes "We've always had it we've just had it covered that's all." I stare in awe as Tamaki starts to play the piano flawlessly, I don't think I'd ever be able to play that well he's amazing at it. "For the next week you will spend your mornings, lunches, recesses, and evening free times here with me for piano lessons." Tamaki says. Shiro asks "Why?" and Tamaki replies "You wanted to be my apprentice right, besides it looked like that girl wanted nothing more then to play the piano with you."

1 week later:

Fixing my tie I get in line with the rest and just wait, it is about time she should be here so she should be arriving any minute; I hope she knows where to go or else this is for nothing. When the door opens I snap my head towards the door and with a gentle smile I say in unison with the rest of the club "Welcome princess we've been waiting for you." Tamaki says "We welcome you to Shiro Takaoji's piano recital, would you my lady?" he gestures to the piano's seat which is right beside Shiro's seat in front of the grand piano. Shiro smiles in her direction and says "Lets play together Hina." she giggles and replies "Okay." and sits in the seat preparing to play the song. Smiling at each other they both begin the piece of music, Haruhi says "He loves with all his heart I guess that is one way he also takes after you sempai." Tamaki smiles at Haruhi and says "Why yes I'd say so, we did a good thing."

"Where did all my usual girls go?" I ask standing beside Haruhi looking over the room then I spot almost all the girls sitting with Shiro and giggling. "God almost every single girl went to him I have practically no one." Haruhi shrugs and says "Yeah he is pretty popular I don't have any customers today, and I could really use some thanks to that extra one hundred thousand yen he gave me." I look over to Tamaki and he says towards Shiro "You brat those are my guest!" Shiro replies "Well it looks like they found someone new they like, it's so easy to steal all you guys guest. Looks like there is a new host club king in town," Tamaki starts to have a fit trying to get to Shiro probably wanting to tear him to shreds, that's how he was acting. "Shiro really does have a lot in common with Tamaki-sempai; I'm getting a feeling that he was also a spoiled brat when he was a kid." Tamaki yells "I WAS NOT A SPOILED BRAT! I WAS NOTHING LIKE HIM WHEN I WAS A KID! I WAS A SWEET, INNOCENT, PRECOCIOUS, ADORABLE CHILD!" I laugh and say "I don't know about that Tamaki you sure?" I know I was probably pretty spoiled when I was younger until that month, which changed everything.

I hate that this one was shorter then the others and junk but I'd call it a filler chapter just cause it happens in the show I decided to still do it in this fan fiction, so I hope you liked it and I hope you will give me reviews and fave the story :) ~Roxy 3 [I don't own any characters or animes :(]
