"You guys have been making me get a lot of stuff lately" Kaoru said entering the music room but stopped when he saw me standing there.

Neither of us knew what to do, we stood there looking at each other .I looked down, I honestly felt ashamed to talk to him. But I have friends now; he can be my friend to right? What do I say? Hikaru took the bags out of his brother's hands, and everyone left the room. Haruhi whispred, "Good luck" The rest of the guys left the room and neither Kaoru nor I moved. I couldn't think of anything to say, but I had to say something.

"I-I'm sorry" was all I managed to spit out.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

"I was brought here. I'm really sorry Kaoru."

"Are you trying to take back what you said to me some time ago?"

"Well not exactly. I know that's not possible, but do you think we could start over?"

"What?"

"You know start over as friends?"

"I-I guess. But I thought you wanted to be left alone."

"I did. I used to, but today I learned that I could have friends. But you have to promise me one thing?"

"What is it?"

"Promise me that we will be friends even after I move."

"How do you know your going to move?"

"I just know it; please can you promise me that?"

"I promise."

"Thanks." I said with a smile.

"I never thought I'd see your smile again." Kaoru said honestly with a smile of his own.

"It's good to see your smile too."

Then everyone came back in. Tamaki came up to me and gave me a hug while pulling in Kaoru. "I'm so happy for you two!" he exclaimed.

"You guys were all listening! ...I knew it." Kaoru scoffed.

"H-hey! I'm allowed to look out for my brother." Hikaru defended himself.

"Whatever." I said.

"Alright guys the club is going to open soon." Tamaki said.

"What is your club again?" I wondered.

"It's a host club." Kaoru said.

"Ouran Host Club is about these handsome guys that have time giving hospitality to these lovely ladies who also have time and profit off them. It's an elegant game unique to this super-rich school." Tamaki explained.

"Ok," I said a little nervously, "What do you guys want me to do?"

"You don't have to do anything." Tamaki said.

"Hmm I'm not so sure about that." Kyoya said.

"What?" everyone questioned.

"Well I don't think the customers would like it if a girl was always hanging out here," he said.

"Ok, do you want me to be a waitress or something?" I said to give an idea.

"A waitress! Perfect! Mae would look so pretty in a waitress outfit. Hikaru Kaoru! Find an outfit for our new friend Mae." Tamaki dramatically said.

"Yes sir!" they answered and left the room.

"What did I get myself into?" I asked myself.

I was soon pulled into a room full of outfits, and some of them were scary! I don't even want to know how they got all of these it the two seconds they were gone. The twins picked a bunch of outfits and pushed me into a changing room. I refused to leave the room for a few of them. We eventually found one that worked, and joined the rest of the host club.

"Aww you look so cute Mae!" Haruhi told me.

"Hey Haruhi I've been wondering something, are you a girl? I mean you act differently and well I just think you are a girl," I inquired.

"Yeah I am." she replied.

"Great! I thought I might be the only girl in my new group of friends. But why are you dressed like a boy?" She then told me her whole story, and actually it made me laugh. I could tell that Haruhi and I would be best friends. So I asked that if I could help pay her debt by working there, Kyoya reluctantly agreed with some nudging from the rest of the club.

Soon the room was full of swooning girls and I was kept really busy. I was running around giving out drinks and cake, most of the cake went to Hunny. I barely had time to say hello to the 'customers' as Kyoya calls them. Unfortunately for me I passed Kaoru and Hikaru at a bad time.

"Hikaru don't say that! You'll embarrass me." Kaoru shyly cried.

"Kaoru. I'm sorry, please forgive me." Hikaru apologized as he lifted his brothers' chin pulling them closer together.

"Hikaru," whispered Kaoru with a blush.

That did it! I was as bad as the other girls. My face heated up I'm sure it was a dark shade of red. I couldn't help it, something about that was just...so...Ahh!! Once again luck was not on my side Hikaru saw me while I was blushing. He got a devilish grin then winked to his brother.

Hikaru crept over to me and asked, "Mae did you try the cake?"

"Umm, not yet...w-why?" I nervously responded unsure of what they were planning.

"Then you must try some." Kaoru coaxed as he put a fork full of cake in my mouth getting frosting all over me. It had to be on purpose!

"Oh Mea, you have frosting on your cheek." Hikaru exclaimed before he licked my cheek! Yes he LICKED my CHEEK! As he did that Kaoru leaned closer to me and took frosting off my nose with his finger then stuck it in his mouth just a centimeter away from my face. I was blushing so much I couldn't even speak or move! Then the twins started to laugh. That snapped me out of it. I hit both of their arms.

"How dare you guys! You are just evil!" I yelled, but then started laughing with them.

We then went back to our jobs. Soon the club was all cleared out. Just the club members and I were left, although I guess I'm like a club member now.

"You guys never told me how much work this was going to be!" I complained.

"But you had fun didn't you?" Hunny asked sweetly.

"Yeah I guess I did. Oh crap! I forgot to call home!"

"What's going to happen to you?" Haruhi asked with concern.

"Umm I'm not sure. Maybe nothing, I mean my dad isn't home so I shouldn't get into trouble."

"Where's your dad?" Kyoya questioned.

"He's away on business, he's been gone a month and wont be back for another 3 months." I said.

"That's good because that means you'll be here for a long time!" Tamaki cried happily hugging me.

"You really like hugs don't you? Well I gotta go home. I'll see you all tomorrow, this is everyday right?" I wondered.

"Yup, every school day!" Hunny said.

"Ok bye!" I said.

"Mae, are you walking home?" Kaoru called after me.

"Well yeah, it's nice outside." I answered.

"I'll walk with you, wanna come Hikaru?" Karou asked his brother.

"Sure I guess." He said.

We all said bye and began to walk home. I was walking between them. At first it was a little awkward because there was still some tension between Kaoru and I. Then Hikaru started talking and soon we were all laughing together. Next thing I know I agreed to help them on some prank the next day. We got to their house and I stopped walking.

"I'll see you guys tomorrow; I think I can make it the rest of my way home."

"Ok." They said together.

"Umm thank you. I had a fun time today, and if it were for you both I never would have had friends. So thank you." I said.

"Your welcome!" They both said as they hugged me. I still think it's a little creepy when they talk at the same time.

"You deserve friends; no one should end up alone." Kaoru told me.

I hugged them both, and then started walking away and waved goodbye.
