Ouran Hosts' Party

"Why did we tell Haru-chan that it's her day off?" Hani asked with a mouth full of cake.

Takashi temderly wiped a bit of frosting from Hani's cheeks. "Don't talk with your mouth full."

"Because, Hani," Tamaki started, "We need to plan out the ball. You know… make sure that it's perfect." By the end of the sentence, Tamaki was drooling with a glazed look in his eye, obviously thinking about his so-called daughter.

"Now," Tamaki commanded, getting back his sanity, "Let's see…" The host club immediately began to whisper to each other, thinking of ideas for the party and trying to come up with their ultimate plan.

This left the girls at a loss. "Ummmm… Tamaki-sempai…" One brave girl began.

"…We're still here," Another finished dryly.

"Ahhhh! But I don't mind!" This time, a squealing red faced girl cried.

"Why?"

"They're SO close together!" All the girls looked to observe again and, sure enough, each of the hosts were unconsciously invading the other's personal space as they huddled together to whisper.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"

Friday came in the blink of an eye. Almost all the men from Osaka were attending the party held by the hosts. However, there had another interesting development in the past two days…

"Nanba-sempai," A blushing Nakao said nervously. "G-Good morning!"

"Oh, yeah. You too," Nanba hurriedly answered as he walked down the hall.

Nakao stood there, clutching his rapidly beating heart. "Sempai…"

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAA!" A certain blonde/orange haired girl cried. "Beautiful. Just beautiful," Renge continued.

"KYAAAA! Fight, Nakao-kun! We're with you all the way!" Another fan girl encouraged.

"But it's so hard when the person you like is so cold to you…" Nakao cutely sighed bringing his hand to his cheek in a distressed manner.

"KYAAAAAAAAAA! Don't worry Nakao-kun! We're here for you! FIGHT!"

…Nakao has somehow gotten popular.

"Sano! Sano! Sano!" Mizuki's hyper voice rang. She was currently sitting on the bed in Sano's room. She watched Sano treat his red cheek (from the punch when he tried to kiss Haruhi). Of course, Mizuki failed to tell him who gave him the pink cheek.

"Yes?" Sano asked while he massaged his cheek with an ice pack.

"Today's the ball!"

Sano winced a little. Keeping the girl out of trouble in a crowd like a ball was going to be so fun. "Yeah."

Mizuki puffed out her cheeks. "Is that all? Aren't you excited?"

Sano stood up from the bed, "Anyway, what are we supposed to wear? It's formal, isn't it?"

"I'm not sure. I asked them and they said to come and they'll provide the clothes for everyone," Mizuki answered. Sano nodded in understanding. Sano turned around to look at almost all his belongings that were neatly tucked away in a gym bag. He looked at the clock that read six twenty five.

"Did you pack your stuff?" Mizuki nodded in response. "Then I guess it's time to go."

Groups of men and women filed into the large ballroom rented by the hosts. Tamaki, the twins, Takashi, and Hani waited anxiously for the arrival of their new friend.

"What's taking her so long?" Hikaru demanded.

"She should be here…" Kaoru agreed.

Haruhi took a chance to look at the doorway and saw the brunette beauty. "There she is!" Haruhi alerted the host club. Hikaru and Kaoru responded with identical evil grins.

As soon as the ball room was filled with the boys and girls from both schools, Tamaki stepped up to speak to the crowd.

"Thank you all so very much for coming here tonight; it's a pleasure seeing all of you. Now will the boys go through those doors where some maids will show you to your suits and changing rooms." Tamaki paused to point to huge doors at the right side of the room. He turned and pointed to the left, "Ladies, please make your way through these doors."

Mizuki walked fast to keep up with Sano's larger feet. Sano watched the people around the girl like a hawk, have to make sure the idiot doesn't get found out…

"Mizuki-kun, will you come here a minute," Mizuki looked back to see that Tamaki was signaling her to come over to them. I wonder what's wrong, the girl thought as she skipped over to the gorgeous men. Tamaki cleared his throat, "I'm afraid we didn't have enough suits to go around."

"O-Oh?" Ashiya responded, feeling a bad aura.

"So we've prepared something a bit… different for you."

"E-Eh?" Mizuki questioned, totally confused.

Haruhi clutched her guilty heart. I'm sorry sempai, I can't do anything about what they're gonna do to you. The most I can do now is hope you'll pull thrugh…

As if on cue, Tamaki quickly turned to Haruhi, "The same goes for you, Haruhi."

Haruhi froze, "E-Eh? But that wasn't part of the plan…" She said a little panicked.

Tamaki made a gesture with his hand, "Hikaru, Kaoru, take them away." With that, the two girls were forced off by the twins leaving a very confused and worried Sano at the sidelines.

"Oh. My. Gosh!" Mizuki blushed as she looked at herself in the mirror. Hikaru and Kaoru had threatened not to let her out of the changing room if she didn't wear the dress, so, in the end, she wore it. Mizuki twirled around in her white frilly dress(tinted pink) in front of the mirror. Her short hair housed a huge ribbon and her stilettos were starting to hurt.

It's the Christmas dance all over again… Mizuki sighed.

Haruhi sighed in front of her own mirror. I wouldn't mind if my secret was given away and I don't really mind wearing a dress to this ball… But did they have to add these? Haruhi's hands unconsciously went up to feel the bunny ears on her head. Her yellow tinted white dress was a perfect match for the cute ears. Haruhi sighed.


I'm very sorrry for the horribly late update!
