Miranda woke up for the first time on her own. No alarm, no maid, nothing. She just simply woke up. usually, she would never wake up before her alarm goes, but this time she felt that something was off. She looked out the window and saw the sun was almost up. She slumped down on her pillow again and tried to sleep. But she couldn't. Miranda kept tossing back and forth on her bed. In the end she sat up.
"Looks like I'll be early for school today," she mumbled with a delighted smile on her face. She scratched her head and looked at the clock on her night drawer.
Not wanting to believe what she saw, she turned around and turned back, giving the clock a nasty glare.
"FUUUCK!"
Stumbling out of her bed, she ran to her closet and took out the hideous dress, that so called "school uniform."
She knew it would take her at least ten minutes to get into it and decided she would dress herself in the car. Clutching her dress and shoes, she bolted out of her room and down the stairway. As she ran down, she almost knocked down the chef.
"Good morning Miranda, today's breakfast will be…"
"No time for breakfast," Miranda said and ran past him. As she neared the door, she hit her toe on a nearby table. As she yelled curses she stumbled to the limo clutching her toe while she did so.
She yanked the door open, surprising the driver.
"Oh God morning Miranda-san," He said and eyed her. What he saw was a girl with messy hair, wearing Hello Kitty pajama as she rubbed her toe.
"Miranda-san is everything alright?" He asked.
"Drive, as fast as you can. Drive even faster than the speed limit!" she said urgently.
"But then I'll be breaking the law," the driver said as he started the car.
"Don't worry, if we get caught just lift up your shirt," she said.
The driver shook his head. He looked down on his clock.
"Miranda-san, why are you in a hurry?" he glanced back at her, she was struggling to put on her sock.
"Because it's past eight, duh," she answered.
"My clock says it's 6:30.," he said.
That made Miranda stop what she was doing. She got up on her seat and sat beside the chauffeur, watching the clock with big eyes. As if realization hit her; the early morning, the maids not waking her up. Someone must've fiddled with her clock. When she would get her hands on the culprit… hell will be waiting.
But still, she let out a sigh of relief.
The driver chuckled as he stopped for the red light.
"At least you are not late," he said, trying to comfort her.
"Yeah, which direction is it to school," she asked. The driver pointed to her right. Miranda opened the window and stuck her hand out, flashing her middle finger.
"You hear that, you aren't getting me in trouble!" she said and took out her other middle finger. The driver chuckled at her behavior, sure it wasn't proper, but it was funny. She then went back into her seat and closed the window. Her driver looked at her and they laughed together. Then suddenly he stopped.
"Huh? Why did you stop laughing?" Miranda asked, still laughing
He pointed to her right and said with a shaky voice, "Isn't that your teacher, Miranda-san?"
Miranda turned her head and looked out the window. Miranda stopped dead. She could hear her pulse banging in her ears and there was sweat dripping down her back.
There on the other side of the car, was Mr. Naito, her biology teacher, sitting in the driver seat. Is hands was on the wheel and his head turned to her direction, giving her a death stare. His lips pursed together and his eyes unblinking.
Miranda stared horrified back. She couldn't move a single muscle, not even to scream. As she kept eye contact she saw visions of her death.
God be mercy, she thought.
The traffic light turned green. It was only then she found her voice.
"HURRY, TAKE ME OUT OF HERE!" she yelled and the driver stepped on the gas pedal.
Miranda quickly exited the car and ran into the school building. She constantly locked behind her back, making sure that her teacher wasn't behind her. Then she stopped in front of her classroom. It wasn't a good idea to get in there. What if she was the only one there and her teacher would get in. It would make it easier for him to kill her. Deciding against it, she continued to speed walk through the corridor. She walked about ten minutes before she stopped in front of an another classroom. 2A it said.
"This is Tamaki's class," she mumbled.
Hesitantly, she opened the door to the classroom. There she saw Kyoya sitting reading a book... but no one else. Kyoya looked up from his book and saw Miranda. A smile crept on his face and his glasses flashed. "Well, hi there. You're here earl…"
"Wrong room," Miranda said and instantly shut the door. She knew he was going to pressure her about the hacking thing and then demand payment for his computer. But she would not fall into his trap.
Nice try Satan, she thought as she continued to walk down the hall. The sound of a door sliding open made Miranda stiff. She quickly turned around and saw Kyoya.
"Aren't you going to greet your senpai?" he asked, but this time without his fake smile. Only a frown. Miranda shivered.
How can someone look so evil, she thought. She shook her head and turned around only to bump into Tamaki.
"Good morning little sister!" Tamaki smiled. With Tamaki in front of her and Kyoya behind her, she felt as if she was trapped. She saw how Tamaki began to chuckle and Kyoya smile an amused smile.
"What?" she asked suspiciously.
"Hello Kitty," was Kyoya's simple answer as he pushes up his glasses. Miranda looked down and saw she was still in her pajama.
"Don't look!" she said embarrassed, a blush slowly creeping on her face.
"Don't worry little sister, you can borrow one of our spare uniforms," Tamaki said, patting her head. They went their club room and Miranda changed into the spare uniform. "Thanks!" she said gratefully and hugged Tamaki. She then looked at Kyoya.
Is he also expecting a hug from me? she thought. She hesitated, but decided he earned a hug for helping her. Miranda then stood in front of him. His glasses flashed from the sunlight that was seeping in from the window. She then extended her arms and gave him an awkward hug. A shiver ran down her spine and she could feel Kyoya tense. When she released him, they just stared at each other.
"Naw, Miranda hugged mommy," Tamaki said in delight. Miranda grimaced.
"Let's agree to refrain from hugging each other," Kyoya extended a hand to her.
"Agreed," Miranda said and shook his hand. She then started to dust herself, she didn't want his cooties on her uniform. Miranda then went to her classroom.
In the classroom
Miranda banged her head on her desk. It was only 6 minutes and 23 seconds left until the class begun.
A shadow loomed over her. Miranda looked up and saw a pair of golden eyes.
"What do you want?" she sighed. Hikaru looked at her annoyed.
"Haruhi has been calling out for you. Why aren't you responding?" He asked. Miranda pushed up her head and saw Haruhi leaning on her chair, looking in her direction. She waved her hand. Miranda responded with a nod and slumped back on her desk. But still, the Hitachiin twin was still there. She could feel his irritated gaze on her.
"May I help you," she said and sat properly in her seat. He kept on staring at her.
"Like do we have a problem?" The Hitachiin only furrowed his eyebrow and a tick mark was appearing in his head.
What is up with her? She's been fidgeting and mumbling to herself since she entered the classroom, Hikaru thought and stared intently at her as if he was trying to read her thoughts.
"Dafuq you looking at. Go back to your seat Hitachiin!" she said and pointed to his seat next to Haruhi.
"Hey, why are you so angry in the morning?" he snapped.
"Cuz I'm dead Hitachiin. Dead, like this area here is gonna be a crime scene," she snapped back and pointed to the floor. Then she saw her visions of her death. She started to wail and banged her head on her desk. Not understanding what she was talking about, Hikaru tried to poke out the reason from her.
"Go away Hitachiin…" Miranda muttered.
Hikaru almost growled at Miranda. That she only saw him as one of the twins only made him frustrated. But he didn't know why. He should be used to it by now. He and Kaoru didn't care if people couldn't tell them apart.
Then why does it bother me so much? he thought. Before he could think more into the matter he asked,
"Which one am I?" he said with a smirk.
"Not even looking at him she answered, "Hikaru."
That caught him off guard.
Does she know how to tell us apart, no, she probably guessed.
"Wrong, I'm Kaoru," he frowned. Miranda looked up at him with narrowed eyes and then to his brother.
"Yo Kaoru," she hollered. Kaoru stopped talking to Haruhi and turned around, "What is it Miranda?" he asked. Miranda looked at Hikaru with a devious smirk. "Thank you for proving me right!" she said while she looked at Hikaru's embarrassed face. He went back to his seat and then the teacher came in.
"Good morning class," he said. The class responded with a good morning and he started the lesson, but not before he gave Miranda a glare.
It was in the middle of the class when they heard a knock on the door. The teacher was writing the blackboard and had his back facing the class.
"Miranda, detention two hours for being late," he said.
"What the F… I'm here!" Miranda snapped.
"Then who could it be?" he said and walked to the door.
"Maybe it's the police, they've heard you've murdered all the unicorns in the world," Miranda muttered. The teacher sent her a glare, but Miranda only pointed at Daichi. "It was him!" she mouthed. Mr. Naito sighed and opened the door. "Ah, it's the new student," he said.
"Renge?" Haruhi questioned.
"OTAKU!" The twins and Miranda yelled.
Renge introduced herself and was placed in the middle. Then the teacher continued with the lesson, turning around again. While he wrote something down on the board, he said, "Miranda, you're still getting detention for your unacceptable behavior this morning in the traffic."
Miranda already saw this coming and held her poker face, only small tears slid down her face.
The day continued with Miranda having bad luck. She would trip over nothing, getting doors closed on her fingers, tackled by her brother and getting Honey-senpai's cake accidentally thrown in the face.
And now somehow… somehow Miranda ended up in a kitchen. The most dangerous place in the whole school. It was after school and Miranda should be in her classroom to sit off her detention. But Kyoya miraculously convinced the biology teacher, that she could spend it in the Host club. Well, she was grateful getting rid of that demon, but now she would spend it with Satan?
"Alright, let's make some cookies!" Renge said with her hand on her hips. The thought of giving Kyoya home baked cookies made her heart skip. While Renge was in her own world, Haruhi took out the ingredients. The boys had told Miranda that she would help Renge make cookies and thus, she had no choice than to be in the kitchen.
"Miranda, Renge do you know how to make cookies?" Haruhi asked.
Renge shook her head while Miranda nodded.
"Oh course. You call a number, then wait 20 minutes and taa-daa, a cake is outside your door," Miranda explained.
"Damn rich people," Haruhi mumbled.
Haruhi instructed how make cookies, being the only one with experience. She told Miranda to chop the chocolate into tiny bits while Renge made the dough.
"Miranda-san, please don't hold the knife like some murderer," Haruhi said and went over to Miranda. Even though she couldn't hold the knife properly, she was doing a great job.
"Good job Miranda, you can actually do it," Haruhi praised.
"Yeah, it's easier if you picture the chocolate as the biology teacher," Miranda said and continued to chop it, having a mad grin plastered on her face.
"Okay," Haruhi sweatdropped.
"Haruhi-kun, should I put more sugar in the cream?" Renge asked.
"Ah, yes. Miranda how's the chocolate going?"
"Great…" Miranda said in a dull voice.
"I can't wait to give these to my beloved Kyoya!" Renge squealed. Haruhi found that sweet and smiled.
"Miranda, who are you giving the cookies to?" Haruhi asked while she cleaned. The girls had made a huge mess.
"I'm giving these to Mr. Naito as an apology for showing him the finger in the highway," Miranda answered.
"That's quite sweet of you," Haruhi then turned around and saw Miranda put in chili sauce in the dough. "No, Miranda you aren't supposed to put that in there!"
"Don't worry, my intention is to kill him so I know what I'm doing," Miranda said in a calm voice.
"Good grief, she's even worse than Tamaki." Haruhi sighed.
The girls then put their cookies in the oven. When they took them out, Renge's cookies were slightly burned while Miranda's cookies had a nice color for some reason.
The girls then went to the Host club, Renge was the first one to step in.
"Hey everyone, you'll be happy to know that your new manager Renge has baked you some cookies," Renge exclaimed offering them cookies. Instantly, Tamaki was by her side.
"Isn't she ladylike? I'm so move by your generosity," Tamaki said in his usual dramatic tone.
"I didn't bake these cookies for you phony prince!" Renge shot down. That sent Tamaki to his emo corner. Miranda walked up to him and bowed down to his height. She showed him her cookies. What she didn't know that the other hosts also saw her bag of cookies.
"Oh little sister, are you offering your brother," he said, but Miranda didn't let him finish.
"You aren't getting any," she said with a sadistic smile. Tamaki began to cry rivers. Miranda then went back to Haruhi.
"How could you be so cruel!" Tamaki wailed after her.
Miranda's smile grew bigger.
"She wasn't kidding, these cookies are really burned," Miranda heard Honey say while eating Renge's cookie.
"Don't eat that Mitskuni, it's bad for you," Mori advised. Upon hearing their comments, Renge turned into Medusa and chased them around the clubroom.
"That's some scary shit right there," Miranda whispered to Haruhi, pointing to Renge. Haruhi tried a cookie.
"They are not that bad at all, they've got good flavor," Haruhi commented.
Suddenly there was a light bulb above the twins head, indicating that they had a plan.
They both got near the girls. Hikaru snatched the bag from Miranda, taking out a cookie from it.
"May I try?" Hikaru asked Miranda softly, placing the cookie in her mouth.
No, don't put the chili cookies in my mouth! Miranda thought. Hikaru then took a seductive bite, his lips almost brushing past Miranda's.
"Haruhi you've got crumbles in your face," Kaoru said, bending down and licked Haruhi's cheek.
While Haruhi was still calm, Miranda and Tamaki freaked out. Miranda quickly spit out the cookie and held Hikaru by his collar. Tamaki was freaking out in the background.
"Why in hell would you do that!" Miranda growled, teeth clinched of anger. Hikaru only grinned a victorious grin until his face reddened. Don't get it wrong, he wasn't blushing. His facial expression slowly changed to panic.
"Oh my God. WHAT IS THIS!" Hikaru said while he tried to fan his tongue with his hands.
"I put chili sauce in them. That's what you get from stealing!" She said.
"What is wrong with you?!" Hikaru questioned angrily. Feeling insulted Miranda kicked Hikaru, making him suffer more.
"You know, you could've just told me and I would have wiped it off. And if you wanted some cookies, you could've asked her nicely," Haruhi remarked.
"THAT'S NOT THE WAY YOU'RE MEANT TO ACT HARUHI" YOU HAVE TO BE STRONG AND REJECT THEM!" Tamaki exclaimed, holding Haruhi's face.
"That's right, you should've punched his face! That was way too indecent!" Miranda shouted out, standing beside Tamaki. She then noticed Tamakis grip on Haruhi's face. "Off with your hands you insolent!" Miranda said and slapped Tamaki's hands. Tamaki finally snapped.
"Calling me insolent, you're the hypocrite. I didn't see you punch him!" Tamaki retorted.
"Hypocrite? I didn't need to punch him cuz' my cookie would do even more damage than a punch. I mean look at him," She said and pointed to Hikaru. He was lying on the ground, panting with Kaoru by his side.
"Revenge me," he said with a hoarse voice.
"You have a point," Haruhi said.
"But…" Tamaki started.
"These cookies are for my teacher, besides, I protected you!" she said.
"Miranda," Tamaki sniffled and hugged her.
"EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU! ALL OF YOUR CHARACTER ARE LUKEWARM," Renge said, pointing to the confused host club and Miranda.
She continued to rant on.
"Each of you need to have some sort of dark side do you understand? Girls are vulnerable to young men who are in trouble. If you keep carrying on like this it's only a matter of time before the girls get tired of you and stop coming altogether. Are you trying to ruin my precious Kyoya's business?"
I should probably go while I can, Miranda thought, trying to sneak out, but Hikaru and Kaoru held her arms. Miranda glared at Them.
"As your manager, it is my duty to change your character backgrounds, let's start with you!" Renge said, pointing to Honey.
"If only you're as cute as inside as you're outside then you're no different than a baby. So from now on, you're the baby faced thug," Renge announced making Honey cry.
She then moved on to her next target.
"And Mori senpai, you're his childhood friend, the Flunky. The twins will be basketball players enslaved in their own world. Haruhi, you're an honor student who's constantly being bullied. As for you Tamaki you're the school idol who's admired for his good looks, but actually has an inferiority complex he's hiding from the world, the lonely prince.," Renge said, chocking everyone. She then set her eyes on Miranda.
"Miranda…" but she was cut off.
"Hey, I tried to kill my teacher, isn't that evil enough?" Miranda held up her hands in defense.
"NO! You being beautiful and having a nice personality will only make the girls jealous and crush their spirits. Also in every high school drama the heroes must always have an archenemy. Therefore Miranda you're the student council president who's admired both by her beauty and personality, but in reality you're evil and calculating. You won't do things that aren't beneficial and you want to crush the host club, you're the Tyrant." As Renge finished talking, Miranda was already at her emo corner.
"Hey! Why do I get to play the bitch? Do you have a grudge against me?" Miranda barked from her corner, tears flooding down her face.
And Kyoya, you're perfect the way you are. So I want you to be kind and as affectionate as ever, 'kay?" Renge added sweetly.
"Don't ignore me! You just hurt my feelings!" Miranda then realized something and walked over to Renge.
"Why do I get to play Kyoya for? He's the one who fits that description not me!" Miranda said, pointing behind her at Kyoya, who was at the moment writing something in his notebook. He looked up and sent her a glare. The twins broke out into a hysterical laughter.
"Kyoya is not like that at all!" Renge protested.
"Is too! And you know what I'm not even a part of this club so you can't change anything about me," Miranda huffed and stormed out to the door.
"Miranda, you don't want to go back to Mr. Hondo, do you," Kyoya said, looking at Miranda with a glint in his eyes. Miranda stopped dead in her tracks. She slowly turned around and looked at Kyoya with no emotion visible in her face.
"…"
"Well?" Kyoya said, daring her to say no.
"… Bruh"
