Thoughts of worry did soon leave Lenne. The thought of food quickly pushed out any nerves when a lovely scent came her way. It beckoned her to the dining room. When she got there, she had to just barely stop herself from drooling. The table was covered in food for all the major food groups. There was a sliced ham in the middle, a few different types of salads, white rice, and lots of different types of fruits.

Honey laughed at my reaction and said, "come on Lenne-chan, join us."

She nodded and sat in front of Honey. To his left was the already eating Mori. She grabbed a bit of everything onto her plate and began eating. Instantly she was in bliss. During the meal, Lenne told Honey how he was going to get a phone call soon. As if on cue, his phone rang. He was going to leave the room so he wouldn't be rude but Lenne made him stay.

"Hey Hika-chan, what up?" Honey simply asked Hikaru. Lenne watched as Honey's expression went from curiosity to shock. She smiled a bit and continued eating. "I'm sorry but I can't," Honey finished the conversation.

He put his phone back in his pocket and looked at the amused Lenne. He watched her for a good ten seconds before asking, "is it true?"

"Every word," she simply answered.

"But you're so cute! How is that possible?" he asked trying to figure it out.

She couldn't help but grow her smile hearing that, but simply shrugged her shoulders. During this whole time, Mori just kept eating. He didn't show any sign of interest. Honey just shook his head in disbelief. For a few more minutes, the three ate in silence again.

Honey broke it by asking Lenne, "why did you drop out of school?"

She took a moment to figure out the best way to say it before answering, "I didn't have the time. I worked fulltime to pay for my dad's hospital bills. I tried to stay in school but all I ended up doing was sleep in class."

"Lenne-chan..."

She suddenly lost her appetite and put down her fork. "Excuse me," she whispered before standing up and leaving the room.

Honey sadly looked up at his cousin who has also stopped eating. He climbed onto Mori's shoulders. Mori, then, stood up and walked into the unlit living room. He would have kept walking if Honey didn't stop him. They both looked down at the curled girl sitting just outside of the doorway. Mori sat down next to her. Lenne didn't even twitch at his presence; she just sat there, holding her knees to her chest. Honey got off his shoulders and stood in front of her. He grabbed her head and made her look up at him. His eyes saddened when he saw hers. Her eyes were full of tears; it was a matter of time before they fell. Not just that, but it was obvious to both Honey and Mori that she was doing all she could to stop herself from fully crying.

Honey's own eyes began to water as he said, "I'm sorry Lenne-chan..."

She let go of her knees so that she could hold him. He held her tightly. She tightened her grasp on him and whispered, "thank you... You really are like the little brother I never had..."

He looked up at her and asked, "does that make Takashi your little brother too?"

"Well... If you're my little brother, Takashi here," she began, looking over at Mori. "He would be my nephew." He looked at her when she said that and she poked his forehead saying, "I have one strange family."

"Family..." whispered Honey. Both Mori and Lenne looked at him. "I'll be right back," he said getting free from her grasp. He left the room right after.

"That was odd," Lenne whispered, leaning against Mori.

He simply nodded. She let out a shaky sigh and wiped away her stray tear. The urge for her to cry was gone but the sadness was still there. He rested his hand on her head and she closed her eyes.

"There's no way you could be my nephew. You're too quiet to be related to me," she spoke in a low voice.

He smiled his usual smile and ruffled her hair.

"Really?" Honey exclaimed from the next room.

Lenne and Mori looked at each other confused. Lenne glanced around the corner to see Honey on his phone in the dining room. He looked simply thrilled. He made eye contact with her and his smile grew.

"Thanks Tama-chan!" he said just before ending the call.

Right after that, he ran over to her and held her tightly. She held him, completely confused.

"Guess what Lenne-chan?" he asked her happily.

"What is it?" she simply asked.

"You're going to be in class with me and Takashi!"

"Huh?"

"Because your grades were so high before you left school, you can get a scholarship like Haru-chan!"

"Are you serious!"

"Yep!"

She smiled and held him tightly whispering, "thank you..."

"Now you can be our guest at the host club!"

"Not going to happen," she said flatly.

"Awe... Why not?"

"Both of your fan girls are ready to murder me." She looked up at Mori and said, "especially yours."

Honey pouted and rested his head on her shoulder. She smiled and rested her head on his.

"How about this Honey," she began. He looked at her as she kept talking. "I'll stop by the club when it's over."

"Every day?"

She smiled and nodded, "every day."

The rest of the day was relaxing. For the most part, Lenne stayed at Mori's side. She helped him with his homework when he needed it. He comforted her when she thought of her father. Even though he wasn't working with the twins anymore, Honey stayed away from the two just to see if anything would progress. The only thing that happened between the two was learning the true meaning of pure silence.

The next day, Lenne woke up to Honey jumping on her bed. She didn't get up right away so he pulled her up. She was about to crash back down, but something stopped her from doing so. She looked up seeing Mori watching her. His hand was on her back to stop her from lying back down. To counter his hand, she simply leaned against him and reclosed her eyes. He stepped back, making her fall on the floor.

"Ow..." she muttered, rubbing her head.

She looked up at him to see that he had an amused smile on his lips. That annoyed her just enough to grab onto his ankle. She wanted to knock him over just as easily as he did to her. No matter how hard she pulled on it however, he would not budge. She looked up at him seeing that his smile was now a lot wider. She gave in and sat up. He offered his hand to help her stand. She pretended like it wasn't there though. She stood on her own and brushed herself off.

"Hey Lenne-chan," Honey called out to her.

She looked at him seeing that he was handing her a puffy, yellow dress. She frowned at it and asked him, "is that really the uniform?"

"Yep."

"Aren't I lucky?"

"Don't worry, it'll look cute on you."

She sighed, having no choice but to give in. She muttered under her breath, "whatever you say."

"Come on Takashi, she needs to change," he said as he grabbed onto his cousin's arm.

Mori nodded and the two left the room, shutting the door behind them.

"Are you tired Takashi?" Honey asked curiously. He simply shrugged and Honey continued, "it was strange seeing you tease Lenne-chan. I know you did it to wake her up but still weird for 'uncertain'.

Mori glanced down at him. He couldn't seem to find the right words and so he just looked away. Soon after that, a depressed Lenne soon left her room. Honey walked over to her concerned.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"This dress is ugly..." she pouted.

He laughed and jumped onto her shoulders. She looked at him confused until he said, "let's get some breakfast."

She smiled and nodded. Ignoring the watchful Mori, she made her way to the dining room. Her stomach growled on cue when she saw the food on the table. There were pancakes, eggs, oatmeal, the works. She sat down so she'd be close to the pancakes. Honey climbed off her shoulders so that he could sit to her right. Mori just sat in front of them. The three began to eat. As the meal progressed, Honey watched the two carefully. This was reminding him of the time Haruhi upset Tamaki because she didn't ask for any help. This case just wasn't as serious. Not one word was uttered during the meal.

By the time breakfast was over, the three were running late. Honey jumped back on Lenne's shoulders and Mori just followed and she made her way outside. Right when she did, she shuddered. It was so cold outside, she could see her breath. She quickened her pace to the limo. Honey just jumped in before Lenne got in. Mori followed shortly and sat next to her. Right away she leaned against him for his warmth.

"I'm still mad at you..." she muttered, closing her eyes.

"Stay awake," Mori told her.

She groaned in annoyance but reopened her eyes. Honey leaned against her, to help warm her up. She smiled and wrapped her arm around him. They arrived at Ouran shortly after. Mori got out with Lenne shortly following. Honey jumped onto her back to keep her warm the best he could.

Already feeling the glares, Lenne smiled saying, "you being my jacket is going to get me killed."

"I'm not going to let you get sick," he said.

Keeping her smile she said, "thanks."

They made it inside and Honey switched over to Mori. He then looked down at her saying, "the office is right over there Lenne-chan, we'll see you in class 'kay?"

She smiled and nodded. The two watched her make her way to the office before they made their way to the classroom.

By the time Lenne arrived to the classroom, the first class was already half over. It was difficult for her to get away from Tamaki's father when he's apologizing for her misfortune even if he didn't do anything. She sighed deeply, grasping onto the door handle. It took her a few seconds to open the door. When she did, all eyes were on her. Her nerves hit her so hard that moment she was shocked she wasn't throwing up. The teacher had her introduce herself and she did that by simply saying her name. Before she had a chance to take a step on her own, Honey got up and grabbed her arm. He pulled her so that she was sitting next to him and behind Mori. When she felt glares on her back she realized that this was going to be one long day.
