jychan: Hello everyone! I missed you all! And here goes nothing! I don't own Ouran High School Host Club, but I do own Akiko! The Seventh Chapter to the Sequel of Cappuccino, Iced Coffee, here goes nothing!
7. The Rest Of The Club At WacDoralds
Currently, I, Namikawa Akiko, formerly an heiress to the Namikawa Group, is being dragged by my new friend, Ikeda Mayu, towards WacDoralds, where the rest of the Host Club, my former clubmates and friends were.
Kami.
Help.
Me.
"Akiko-chan! Akiko-chan! How are your friends? Are they good?"
Mayu-san asked as she looked at me and anticipated for my answer,
How should I say reply to her?
Should I tell her that one is an obnoxious person, a cute-and-short-boy-but-is-the-oldest-among-us person, a Shadow King, an androgynous female, and a silent and stoic person?
Well, Mayu-san and Motoko-san have already met the devious twins, so, that's why I only described Tamaki, Hunny-senpai, Kyouya, Haruhi and Mori-senpai, respectively.
But should I really tell Mayu-san that kind of answer when she's waiting for my answer?
Kami, help me.
Please.
"Eto, they're good."
At the least.
"Eh? That's great! I'm sure we're going to be good friends then! Isn't that great, Motoko-chan?"
She said as I sighed.
That was a bad answer, after all.
"I suppose. But they're supposed to be a bocchama-tachi and an ojou-sama, right, Hitachiin-san-tachi?"
Motoko-san asked the twins, who replied,
"Hai, but one wrong answer. There isn't an ojou-sama with us. Haruhi's a commoner."
"I see... But wow. A commoner in Ouran, right?"
Motoko-san asked as I told her,
"There's a scholarship program for normal students like us. Too bad, when I was in Ouran, I was never number 1... It's because of that Shadow King who's the top student of the 2nd Year."
"Shadow King?"
She asked,
"That would be Ootori Kyouya. A former classmate of mine. The Vice-President of our Club, the Host Club."
"Host Club? Akiko-chan? Don't tell me..."
"NO. It's not like that."
I clarified Mayu-san's thoughts,
That would be absurd.
"It's just us, giving some time, talking to them. Then, they pay us in turn."
I explained as Motoko-san and Mayu-san nodded,
"Yamazaki-san, Ikeda-san, do you know that Kyouya-senpai is currently on a relationship with Akiko-senpai?"
K'so....
"Eh? Really? I never knew Akiko-chan had a boyfriend!"
"Wow. You have a relationship with an Ootori boy? And moreover, the top student of the 2nd Year? Wow!"
"Urusai. It's not currently. It's supposed to be 'had a relationship' or 'was on a relationship'. Either would do."
I replied as I was greeted by stares from the four of them,
"What?"
I asked,
"No way! Kyouya-senpai and Akiko-senpai broke? You were like the 'perfect' couple in Ouran!"
The twins said as I rolled my eyes on their over-exaggerated supposed-to-be-compliment,
"Perfect couple? Wow. That's just great Akiko-chan! But why?"
Mayu-san asked as I sighed and replied,
"Because we're not the perfect couple. OK? My status has degraded. So, how are we supposed to be the perfect couple. And we weren't the perfect couple from the start. Heck, we always argued. Damn that Shadow King and his smirks."
"Smirks?"
"Yes. Him and those smirks of him that makes him look more sexier. Heck. Damn him and his smirks."
I muttered as I continued walking,
"I didn't know that you thought that my smirks were sexy, Akiko."
"Right. Kyouya, you never kne- Wait a minute."
My smirks?
K'so!!!!
"Shimatta..."
I cursed out loud as I turned to see Kyouya, smirking,
Damn it...
I breathed in and out.
"Why the heck are you here? And wait a minute. Weren't you supposed to be in WacDoralds with the others?"
I asked the damn, sneaky, Shadow King.
Damn it...
"Tamaki told me to look for the twins, who I saw with you and these two girls, who should be your friends, neh, Akiko."
I rolled my eyes on his reply,
"Atashi wa Ikeda Mayu! Hajimemashite, Ootori-kun."
Mayu-san introduced herself as Kyouya nodded,
"Yamazaki Motoko. Dozo yoroshiku."
"Ah. Ore wa Ootori Kyouya. Domo."
Kyouya said as the two girls nodded,
Geesh. Does he have to introduce himself to Mayu-san and Motoko-san?
"Matakun... Do you have to go with us?"
I asked him as I frowned,
"Well, the twins after all, are with you. And it seems you are also going to WacDoralds with your friends."
I rolled my eyes as he sighed, while we went inside WacDoralds,
"Let's go order now."
I told Mayu-san and Motoko-san who said good-bye to the twins and Kyouya,
"Ja neh, Ootori-san, Hitachiin-san-tachi."
Motoko-san said,
"Ja neh, Ootori-kun! Hitachiin-kun-tachi!"
Wow. It seems the only difference would be the -kuns' and -sans'.
Wow.
"Burger and Cola."
I told the cashier as she nodded,
"Hotdog on a bun and a light Cola!"
"I'll have Burger and Cola."
Mayu-san and Motoko-san ordered, respectively, as the cashier nodded,
I gave out some cash equal to how much the amount was for my burger and cola. It was a dutch treat, after all.
"Okaa-san! Kaoru! Hikaru! Over here!"
That was Tamaki. I cannot be wrong.
"Kyou-chan! Kao-chan! Hika-chan! What took you so long! You try their cake here! It's good!"
Hunny-senpai.
"Tono! Hunny-senpai! Minna-san! We got lost around. By the way! We saw Akiko-senpai."
Shoot. I have got to hide now.
"Thank you! Come by once again!"
The cashier said as she handed out our food.
I have to go now before Tamaki sees me!
"Motoko-san, Mayu-san, I had a great time here,"
"Eh? You saw my other daughter? Where? Where?'
"Eh? But why so early Akiko-chan?"
"Aren't you going to eat your burger and drink your cola?"
"I'd love to but-"
"AKIKO-CHAAAAANN!!!!"
Shoot. Too late.
I was hugged by the obnoxious president of the Host Club, before I could step on a side so that he cannot hug me, but too late.
"Where have you been my daughter? Daddy has been looking all over Japan for you! But, Okaa-san told me that you would be fine, so that's why I never bothered..."
I looked at my other Mayu-san and Motoko-san, who had a surprised and amused look on their faces, respectively.
Normal POV
Akiko sighed upon seeing her friends reactions.
"Akiko-chan! Daddy really really missed you!"
Tamaki told Akiko, who was not responding anymore in shame,
"I heard from the twins. So, Tamaki, will you please release me? And where the damn heck is Okaa-san? Kyouya! Get this obnoxious blonde away from me!"
She called on the Shadow King, who was smirking on a side,
"Maa, maa, Tamaki, you heard her."
Kyouya said as Tamaki followed and released Akiko,
"That's good. Now, Mayu-san, Motoko-san, this is Tamaki."
"Are you Akiko-chan's friends? Nice to meet you! I'm Suoh Tamaki! Dozo yoroshiku!"
Tamaki said with his usual smile, which made the two girls blush,
"Atashi wa Ikeda Mayu! Hajimemashite, Suoh-kun!"
"Yamazaki Motoko. Domo."
The two girls introduced theirselves as Tamaki nodded,
"Why don't we sit on another table! Come on!"
Tamaki said as he dragged the three girls to a table where Hunny, Mori and Haruhi were.
"Aki-chan! Aki-chan! Hissashiburi!!!"
Hunny said as he went near Akiko,
"Hissashiburi Hunny-senpai! Seeing you here, I guess you're fine."
Akiko said as she sat beside one of the available seats,
"Haruhi. It seems you're fine there. So, how's life so far? Have you paid it all off?"
Akiko asked the younger girl, who replied,
"Iee. It seems it's just getting bigger."
"I see... That's quite bad. Oh well. You already had half a year with them, so, you'll still be able to survive. Anyways, still the top 1 student of the 1st year, as usual?"
"Ah hai."
Akiko sighed and said,
"If I was just intelligent, like you, Haruhi, then I'll be able to enroll to Ouran as a scholar, but too bad, back then in Ouran, I only remained in the Top 10 students, and not more than that. But, probably if I... That would not do. Things a Shadow King does. Heck, I can't even imagine why Tamaki's the Top 2 of our batch."
The others sweatdropped on what Akiko muttered,
"Eh? That's mean, my daughter!"
"Whatever, Tamaki. Geesh... Oh well, so, Mori-senpai, you're still in the kendo club as usual?"
Akiko asked the stoic and silent senpai who nodded,
"Sugoyi... Oh well... AH. By the way, these are my friends."
Akiko introduced Mayu and Motoko, who settled on some seats,
"Atashi wa Ikeda Mayu! Dozo yoroshiku!"
"Yamazaki Motoko. Domo."
The two introduced themselves as the others nodded and said,
"Haninozuka Mitsukuni! Hunny for short! Yoroshiku! Mayu-chan! Moto-chan!"
"Eto, 'Moko' would be much better..."
"Nnnn!!! Moko-chan! Mayu-chan! You want some cake?"
Hunny asked as the two shook their heads,
"Watashi wa Fujioka Haruhi desu. Hajimemashite, Ikeda-san, Yamazaki-san."
"Mayu-chan would be fine, Haruhi-chan!"
"I see..."
"Ore wa Morinozuka Takashi. Yoroshiku. Mori would do."
"Dozo yoroshiku, Mori-kun."
There was a cough behind Akiko, who turned around and saw Kyouya,
"What's the matter?"
"You're sitting on my chair, Akiko."
"There are other seats available where you can seat on, Kyouya."
"That is if there are still more seats available."
"Eh?"
Akiko looked around the table and saw that even if there was one space available, there were no seats available.
"Is that the problem? Oh, it's OK. I'll just go already. After all, I planned to go already earlier. It was just Tamaki saw me before going. Motoko-san, Mayu-san, it seems you're OK with the Host Club, so I'll go already. Ja, minna-san!"
Akiko said as she stood up and took her burger and cola,
"Aki-chan! Aki-chan! Don't go yet!"
'Must not fall for Hunny-senpai's doggy eyes... Too late...'
She thought as she looked at Hunny's expression,
"Eto... Senpai, there aren't any more seats available..."
Akiko said as she looked for a way to go home already,
"Aki-chan, I'm pretty sure Kyou-chan won't mind if the two of you share one seat, neh?"
Hunny said as the others choked on either their burgers or drinks, while Akiko went
"Eh?"
"I guess there's no problem to it, then. Unless if you're..."
"No. It's fine."
Akiko replied before Kyouya could finish his sentence, which made him smirk,
"I swear... This is all because of me, looking at Hunny-senpai's face, when I knew that I would always fall for his doggy eyes... Matakun..."
Akiko muttered as she ate her burger while Kyouya replied,
"If you already knew and still looked at him, then, you're an idiot."
"Whatever, Kyouya. Geesh. Of all the people around here, why do I have to sit beside you?"
Akiko muttered as she looked at the twins who were teasing their 'tono' as a pervert for who knows,
Kyouya smirked at Akiko's question as he pushed his glasses,
"Stop smirking."
"Hm?"
"In other words, get that smirk off your face."
"My sexy smirk?"
"Urusai."
"You said that yourself earlier."
"Which I regret deeply."
"Oh?"
"What the... Of course... I deeply regret it. Letting you hear those words coming from my mouth is one of the most embarrassing moments I ever had in my life. Second to when I told you then that I liked you. That was indeed, the most embarrassing."
"But you did stop me from going to US."
Kyouya said as Akiko looked at him,
"I suppose there was a good outcome, but then, when I said those words about you and your smir- Hey. Get that smirk out of your face or else!"
Akiko complained as Kyouya faced her with a smirk, having their faces in a close range, wherein Akiko could feel Kyouya's breath,
"Or else, what?"
"I-I don't know... Geesh. I hate you."
"Too bad. I like you."
"And I should believe that."
"Well, you have to."
"Why?"
"Or else."
"Or else, what?"
"Or else, I'll kiss you."
Akiko blushed at Kyouya's words as she turned around as soon as she felt her cheeks go hot,
"Urusai. As if I would allow you to kiss me. That would be PDA. And that would definitely not do you good. Kissing me won't do you profits."
"What an interesting perspective you have there, then."
"So, you don't like me at all, do you?"
"You were expecting?"
"U-U-Urusai yo."
Akiko said as she bit on her burger,
'This was going to be a long day after all.'
Akiko thought as she drank her Cola.
