Disclaimer: I don't own Ouran or any of its characters. Seriously. Heavens know what I'd do with Kyouya if I owned Ouran… Well anyways, on with the story!


"Remind me again why I'm wearing this outfit." Maya stated as soon as their customers started filing in. Tamaki had insisted that she wear a maid costume that included a frilly ribbons for her hair, the black little black dress with the white apron on the front and black stockings .

"Because you look absolutely adorable in it. Now, get on with the hosting." He said as he lightly shoved her towards the awaiting males. She sighed.

It was bad enough that she was the only one cosplaying that day, Tamaki even made her call each of the Host members "Master" for the day. In her mind, she was stabbing a Tamaki voodoo doll with thousands of pins and needles. The costume even had a garter belt! Maya thinks that they have officially gone crazy. To top it off, the twins gave her a tray that held several exotic teas in it to serve the host members and the customers.

"Tamaki-sama. Which tea would you like?" She asked, trying not to sound too irritated. He grinned at the 'sama' part.

"The usual." He replied as he returned to a swooning female by his side who was ready to burst at the King's words. She poured his tea into a cup and set it down gently on a table.

"Hani-senpai? Mori-senpai? Would you like tea as well?" She asked, glad to be away from the stupendously annoying Host Club King. Hani thanked her with one of his signature smiles and declined. Seeing as Hani had refused the tea, Mori also shook his head in response. Maya smiled and nodded and walked to where the twins were, mentally preparing herself for their outbursts soon to be voiced.

"Kaoru-sama. Hikaru-sama. Would you like anything?" She asked politely so as not to scare the timid girls away. They were also happy for being called 'master' even though they were younger than she.

"Yes we would. In fact…" Kaoru said as he inched closer to her.

"We would like you." Hikaru concluded, also moving towards the girl. "Not now, you idiots. Now those girls will think they have competition." Maya whispered as the girls looked uncertainly at how close the twins were to Maya.

"So you mean we'll get to have you later?" Hikaru asked as he cupped her cheek.

"Yes, later." Kaoru said as he rested his elbow on her shoulder. She shrugged. Frankly, she really didn't care right now. She just wanted to get away. They snickered and returned to the awaiting girls.

Now, just one more left… Him. That's right, the Shadow King, who was busy advertising a few possessions of the Host Club that were for sale.

"Kyouya-sama." He glanced at her through the corner of his eye and smirked. 'Of course. He's probably enjoying this the most.' She thought with a forced smile.

"Yes?"

"Would you like…tea?" She set down the tray and gestured towards the several multi-colored teabags.

"That would be nice. The black teabag please." He smiled at her. She shuddered. It matched him. Sure did. Black. She nodded and picked up the black teabag and carefully dropped it's contents into a cup and handed it to him.

"Here you go, Kyouya-sama." She had emphasized the 'sama' part for fun, hopefully others didn't notice, but she sure hoped he did.

"Thank you. You're a great help. Maybe you should be our servant more often." Right then, she was about to strangle him. She hoped to god that Tamaki didn't hear him.

"Ah! That's a great idea! Maya, from now on you will serve us three times a week!" Tamaki declared heartily. Maya groaned loudly. She spun around to face the Host Club King, now not knowing what to expect.

"You… You…Do you really want to die? Already? We're only seventeen, but if you want an early funeral, I can handle it." She growled as she grasped his shirt collar.

"Eh? Ahaha… Maya, you can let go now." Tamaki squeaked with a pleading grin. She grasped even tighter.

"Ah, okay, okay! You'll only serve us one day a week then." Tamaki cried as she wrapped on of her legs around one of his.

"Um, what are you doing Maya?" He asked, looking down. She smiled and let go of his collar and pulled her foot towards her so it tripped him. He fell on the ground with a thud, once again capturing an audience of his customers that were pleading Maya to stop it. The twins grinned at the clever move. Hani just kept shoveling cake in his mouth with Mori watching.

xXxXxXxXx

"Say, Tamaki."

"Yes, Maya?"

"Do you believe in superstitions?"

"Of course not. Who would believe in such things? Besides, I was blessed with such good looks that it must mean I am a very fortunate person." He said arrogantly as he ran his fingers through his hair. Maya's eye twitched. She'd get him for that later.

"Umehito-kun! Would you do me a huge favor and let me have a Beelzenef hand puppet?" Maya asked as girly as she could. He smiled, she was one of the only people who called him by his first name.

"Of course. Are you sure you don't want to join either?" He asked with his dark followers behind him. She shook her head and grinned when he handed the doll to her.

"No thanks but thanks!" She kissed his cheek happily. This oughtta teach him…

"Tamaki, Our next class is in there." Maya said as she pointed towards a classroom. It wasn't really their next class, but it was part of her plan. He nodded happily and while he was walking, he heard a loud squish underneath his foot. He looked down and saw that he had tread upon a Beelzenef puppet. He gasped. 'Oh well.' He thought 'It won't do anything to me.' Although, he had to admit, he felt glares directed at him as he continued walking.

"Tamaki, you can go on ahead of me, I forgot something in our last class." Maya said with a grin and ran off, knowing that he had stepped on the doll. And Umehito even saw! Oh, her plan was going great!

Tamaki walked into a classroom and when he sat down, he couldn't help but notice the odd stares he was receiving. He looked down and saw a piece of paper with odd writing on it. He didn't recognize anybody in the classroom.

'Oh, no… Don't tell me I got cursed for stepping on the doll and ended up in another dimension!' He thought, letting odd and stupid things go through his mind.

'Hahaha. Tamaki actually fell for it. My plan worked. He's probably fidgeting like an idiot in the Greek classroom.' Maya thought with a smug smile.

"Where's Tamaki?" Kyouya asked as he lifted his gaze from his book to rest on Maya.

"He's…somewhere." Maya replied. She was very happy. Everything was going according to plan, there was even going to be a marathon later. Everything seemed perfect.

As soon as the bell rung, Tamaki burst out of the classroom. He scanned the crowd of students to find Kyouya. He jumped on him and crocodile tears started streaming down his face.

"It was horrible! I'll never do it again! Ever!" Tamaki cried as Kyouya awkwardly pet him.

Maya laughed.

Maya tied her shoelaces tighter, they had to go on a 5k run. Tamaki was still sulking over what happened.

"Hello Suoh-kun." Umehito said as he creeped behind them. Tamaki's eyes and mouth widened in horror and he backed away from him.

"Everybody! Get in a line so we can begin the race." The class president yelled.

Originally, the race was for boys only seeing as girls didn't need the physical strain but Maya pleaded her way into the race. She wanted to prove that a girl can do anything a boy can, even if there were some girls who just didn't care.

'Bang' That was the signal of the race beginning. Maya took off at a brisk pace with Kyouya next to her and Tamaki trailing behind them, glancing every which way just in case. She took long strides with her knees lifting higher for each step. She loved the feeling of running. Of letting the wind become a part with her. Without knowing it, she went faster and faster until she was first. A boy in their class narrowed his eyes. He always won the races and he would not let a girl beat him today. He sprinted towards her as fast as he could, forgetting that he was losing air that way. When he ran past her, he stuck his tongue at her. Maya wasn't paying attention to him though. All she had in her vision was the road. Soon, she passed him again, not realizing it though. A few guys that were in the back, already worn out, glanced at the tiny dot that was supposed to be Maya.

"Wow."

"She's fast."

"Yeah."

The boy snarled. She kept passing him. As Maya neared the finish line, she sprinted the fastest she could towards it, knowing nothing could beat her now. The boy glanced at the girl, who was stretching at the finish line, already won. She wasn't even gasping for breath! He had to admit, she was pretty fast and he was part of the sports club. When he got to the finish line, he shouted "Maya Tateishi! Please join our club!"

"Huh?" She glanced at a burly and slightly hairy teenager "Are you talking to me?" He stared at her confused face.

"Yes! We need somebody like you in our club!" He shouted as he started towards her.

"Ah!" Was he chasing her? 'What the hell?' She thought as she ran away from him. He was kind of creepy, staggering towards her like a ghoul. He was still chasing her though, nothing would make him stop seeing as there was such a good runner right here.

Without knowing it, Maya had run the whole course twice. Once for the race and once for avoiding the guy who kept trying to recruit her. She had even passed all the guys (again) who commented on her fastness before.

"So fast…"

"Wait for us…" They all fell to the ground, sweating profusely.

"Ah… That felt nice." Maya said as soon as she had reached the finish line(again).

"Good exercise!" She shouted. Kyouya looked at her amusedly. He had come in at 8th place with Tamaki at 10th. He was especially slow and weary today from his scare.

She had come in first then came in 12th.

"Is he gone?" She asked as she tried to hide behind Kyouya.

"Who?"

"That guy who was following me."

"There was somebody following you?" He asked, mentally making a note of it so one of his bodyguards could take care of the said person.

"Yeah. Some guy wanted to recruit me for the Sports Club." Maya replied as she glanced from side to side, now sure that he was gone.

He smiled. "You're not going are you?" "Of course not." Black met green as their eyes connected and Maya swore she felt the same tingle when he kissed her. She blushed and looked away. He could not help but chuckle at her antics.

xXxXxXxXx

The next day, Tamaki kept complaining on how his legs felt like lead. Maya laughed at him when he said he thought it was Umehito's fault.

"So, do you believe in dark magic now?" Maya asked with a smirk.

"Yes! I most certainly do! I will never anger Beelzenef or Nekozawa ever again!" Tamaki cried.

"Good. You deserved it." Tamaki gasped at her words and went into his depressed corner. Kyouya hid his eyes behind the glare of his glasses, he could not shake the feeling that Maya was the one who got him to believe in superstitions now.

xXxXxXxXx

Maya took a blade out and started sharpening her pencils, a girl who was standing behind her glared at her. The girl hated her, she was jealous of Maya because she was so close to Tamaki and Kyouya . She thought of Maya as her rival in love. She saw Maya was sharpening her pencil and then she got an idea. She lightly used her arm to push Maya's, thus resulting in Maya cutting her finger.

"Ouch." Maya looked down at the now red skin of her forefinger.

The girl turned around to face Maya. "Oh, my! I'm so sorry! It was an accident, I assure you!" Maya could tell her apology was fake from just seeing the girls eyes that burned conceitedly. Maya smiled gently at the girl, which made her even more angry, "No problem."

Kyouya glanced at Maya who was holding her finger that was bleeding quite a bit. He set down his book promptly and snatched her finger from her and placed it in his mouth. The girl blushed with jealousy and stared at Kyouya, now diligently cleaning off Maya's finger.

Maya also couldn't help but turn a little red.

"You should be more careful next time." Kyouya murmured to the girl, now using bandage from his first aid kit to wrap up her finger.

"Oh. Um, of course." The girl ran away, embarrassed.

Maya laughed, "You sure got her."

"She got you too. If I didn't do hat I just did, your cut might have become infected." Kyouya replied, inspecting her finger to see if there were any other wounds.

Maya looked at him "Well, thank you very much." She removed her finger from his grasp.

xXxXxXxXx

Soon, the bell rang and everybody except Kyouya and Maya left the classroom.

"What are you reading?" She asked, mildly interested.

"What do you care?" He glanced at her through the corner of his eye.

"I don't." He smiled, "So would you care…" He got up and walked over to her desk and bent down, "If I do this…?"

"Probably not…" She trailed off as she leaned in and closed the space between them.

He got up and sat down next to her, never taking his eyes off her, twirling a strand of her almost black hair in his fingers. She picked up a book and started to read, barely taking in the text at all.

"I noticed…that you don't look all that Japanese." He said quietly.

"I'm half." She replied, eyes moving back and forth along the literature.

"What's the other half?" He asked.

"Greek." He nodded, "I bet your mother was as pretty as you."

She laughed, "No, she was gorgeous. I am nothing compared to her."

He smirked, how couldn't she see how pretty she was? He cleared the thoughts in his head and started to think about what he heard the other day. He had heard two of his servants talking about how 'Yoshio-sama wanted Kyouya-sama to marry that girl that came the other day'.

He smirked. He was already working on it, regardless of his father's thoughts.

"Would…you…marry me?" She asked, her voice cutting through the silence like a knife.

He froze, was she reading his thoughts? Impossible.

"I…would…" and then hastily added "If I had to". She nodded, seemingly unaffected by his choice of words. But inside, it did hurt a little, as if something stabbed her in her heart, she didn't know why. "I guess that's true." Maya replied. Suddenly, the door burst open.

"Maya, Kyouya! What are you two doing? Come on, let's go." Tamaki said, dragging both female and male out the door. Maya smiled brightly at his cheerfulness with Kyouya wondering what on earth about his blonde friend could make her smile like that.


Muahha. Kyouya...Jealous? Impossible. Or is it? Hah.

LittleAngel22493-Yep! Yay Kyouya indeed.

summer-loven-2-Lol. Yep!! Thanks!

hermonine-Thanks! And yep! Can't wait till the next book comes out!
