The French (Ex-)Countessa In Japan

~*~

Haha. I know the title is kind of like, "well duh!", but I was in the mood to use the word 'countessa.' I previously was going to put "The Frenchian/Japanese Duchess" but I kind of decided to use something very similar for another story, which I should be working on, but all I can think about is my plot for this story...so...yeah.

R&R, enjoy, do my laundry if you must--you get the point, right? I want you to do all of this. (But the laundry, I guess you don't HAVE to do that...)

The Host Club Summer Sleep-over

~*~

Yuki POV

~*~

"Trop de substance à faire!! Non!! Aucune heure! Toute la ceci est Tamaki's défaut!!" (too much stuff to do!! no!! no time! all of this is tamaki's fault)

Although it wasn't really Tamaki's fault.

As I was pacing in the hallway between my younger sister's and my room, the doorbell rang.

I dashed down the stairs and swung the door open.

Saku-chan, Hunny, and Mori were there.

I managed to hold back from laughing when Mori had to duck really low because of the small doorway. "You guys are early. Would you like to help me bake a cake?"

Hunny's eyes lit up and he nodded vigorously. Sakura just rolled her eyes, sat down in the middle of the living room, and started flipping through the channels. Mori simply followed Hunny as he bounded into the kitchen.

As we got the cake batter and all of the ingrediants into the bowl, the doorbell rang again. I heard Sakura greet Haruhi and Tamaki. And then Haruhi came into the kitchen to grace us with his all-knowing knowledge of cooking while Tamaki was squealing about Sakura in her pajamas (she was just wearing a tank top and shorts and stockings).

As the cake cooked, Kyoya just came into the house (because he has permission to due to the whole engagement). He sat calcualating things at the kitchen table as we starting mixing the frosting. Sakura came into the room and started poking fun at Kyoya. It was kind of crowded in the five person kitchen (which had seven people in it right now.) The twins arrived, and sat on the counter while we started frosting the cake.

Soon, Hunny ate the entire finished cake because no one wanted to eat it right now. "Mitsukuni, brush your teeth after you finish eating that!!" Sakura said in an annoyed tone. He nodded and then ate the rest of the cake.

He eyed the empty plate, then looked at Sakura. "Saku-chan, you have frosting on your face~!" he bounced forward and licked her cheek.

Mori smiled, Sakura blushed, and Haruhi laughed.

We all crammed into the living room and started a movie.

I somehow managed to get my laptop on without anyone noticing. It was literally running on the charger--if someone unplugged it, it would turn off. I hid in the corner and started my summer homework that my tutor assigned. And then everything went pitch black.

~*~

I screamed and flew up the stairs into my sister's room. I hid under the covers and started wailing. The darkness reminded me of the night my parents were murdered. After the tears were gone, I hid under the blanket and kept quiet.

I heard everyone looking for me, but none of them were on this floor. But--

creeeeeaaaakkkkkkk~ the floorboards wailed. Someone was near my bedroom door. I kept quiet. I thought everyone had split up into teams--

--meaning that this person wasn't from the host club.

I wanted to scream, but I was surprisingly calm. Something in me told me that I shouldn't be scared, but that was extremly illogical.

I heard the door open, and someone whispered.

"Yuki...?"

I was shocked that I recognized the voice. A flashlight turned on and shone on the comforter.

"Who--" I was interrupted as I remembered the voice. "K-Kao-chan...?" I muttered, and I realized I was sobbing.

"Why did you--" he saw my tear streaked face. "Are you...scared of the dark...?"

I was about to lie, but instead I nodded.

He walked towards me and sat down next to me. "Why are you scared of it...?"

"It was dark like this when my parents were killed..." I muttered, hearing my voice crack. He hesitated, then wrapped his arms around me.

"I'm sorry..."

"You don't have to apolog--" I was interrupted by a loud crash.

"Ow-ness~!!" Sakura shreiked somewhere down the hallway.

"Are you alright, Sakura?" Tamaki asked, a little muffled.

"Aww, shit, I didn't mean to fall on you Tamaki-senpai..." we heard Sakura get up, and I felt like laughing. And then she fell down again.

I started howling with laughter.

"Yuki?" Tamaki asked, walking up to the door. Kaoru was about to move his arms, but I held them in place. "Why did you scream?"

"I kind of hate the dark--"

"More like Nyctophobia," Sakura muttered, stumbling into the room. She started scrambling for something to hold onto with her hand, and she hit the light switch. While she fell (and was caught by Tamaki), we found out that the lights were back on.

And then everyone was shocked to see what my sister's room looked like.

~*~

Me: Wow. I think everyone is back to normal, yes? No more OOC, I hope....?

~*~

Gabby: Who keeps attacking Hikaru?!

Sakura: Whyyyyyy~~~????

Me: Why does Tamaki get all of these French death threats?!

Yuki: In the next chapter, My Rabid, Deadly Stalker!

~*~

Gabby: I thought the next chapter was supposed to be--

Me: I know, but I want to get this new character over and done with!

Gabby: Agh!! You said that Yuki's stalker would be another story!

Me: It will be, and their appearance will be short, okay?

...

Gabby: Pedobear Krai.
