A/N!
Okay, this one's going to be a filler. Not just because I'm lazy and trying to come up with good ideas that aren't as cliché as I usually am, (Or more cliché,) it's because I want to show their states of mind. Haha, I think I might do this after every day. Give me your input on if you like this or not! Love you all! ♥

+Chapter Eleven+
Hopes and Dreams of a Host
11:00 p.m. Finally, Tamaki had been able to get to sleep. As much as his trouble and dejection consumed his thoughts and blocked his clustered being from having a siesta, the catastrophe of the cruise ship, the S.S. Suou, finally made it possible for the fatigue to catch up to him. Something as big as that was not going to let anybody go a night without forty winks. On the flipside, that didn't mean that the drama wouldn't cause the hosts to dream. Something so treacherous didn't go without at least one trance.
With the first to fall asleep, Mitsukini Haniozuka lay cozy as he normally did. By now, he was deep into a snooze, and very little would snap him out of it. It's not like anybody'd try with his rival to Kyouya's look of evil that emitted from such a delectable boy such as Hunny. He slept without a twitch or deep breath.
Hunny
For a while I'd been skipping through this meadow. Nothing bad has happened. I'm so happy! It's a good thing I decided to stay back from Tama-chan's cruise. If I'd gone, Takashi and I would have had no time alone, and we would've had to watch Haruhi have a bad time! Boo! Now instead of a cruise, Takashi is sitting with me at a small plastic table. It has my favorite tea set on it, and he has the cutest hat on! I picked it out myself. Kawaii ne!!
The sky was deep blue with little marshmallows in the sky for clouds. For some reason, those clouds of marshmallows had cherries on top of them. Trees were in the shape of lollipops, and the mountains in the distance were big chocolate cakes with various icings and fruits atop their peaks. It was paradise, and now Mori and Hunny were no longer alone. Kaoru began to skip up, laughing happily as can be with Hikaru at hand. He was dragging his brother.
When Kao-chan got here, he had this really cute dress on! I dunno why he was in a dress, but Hika-chan was in a matching suit! I've never seen those two do anything so great before! I'm so glad Kao-chan and Hika-chan decided to stay back, too!
"Hunny-sempai, look! I found Hikaru! He's not missing!" Kaoru told me, and he was eating an orange the way Kuze did, with the peel still on. I like oranges! Never before had my giggle been so loud and clear! I wish I could stay in this moment forever!
Now the table was slightly bigger. At it sat a happy Kaoru, conversing with Usa-chan, Hikaru looking bored and running his finger along the edge of a teacup, Mori serving cake after cake to Hunny, and Hunny turning to all of them with great big smiles. Now, he'd grown a pair of bunny ears and whiskers. It felt nice. The air was thin and smelled of strawberries. Now came Kyouya.
Kyou-chan! He made it! Wow, now only Haruhi was with Tama-chan! I wonder why they decided to come with Takashi and me instead of going on such a great cruise! Oh well, at least we're together! I just wish Tama-chan and Haru-chan could come…
"Hunny-sempai, your cakes taste great! They're very good for you! They have eight essential vitamins and sugar is no longer bad for you! Well, at least when you're in Sugar Candy Mountain."
Kyou-chan's so knowledgeable! He's amazing, and he loves my cakes! Wow, I don't think this could get any better!
"Hunny-sempai! Wait up!"
Oh, Haru-chan did come!
In the distance was now Haruhi, holding up one hand and running in the most feminine way possible. Her laugh was euphoric and she wore a bunny suit, real ears and all. It was seemingly slow motion with the sun beaming on her radiantly and wind blowing only where she ran. When she'd approached, she took a seat in between Hikaru and Usa-chan.
I swear, Haru-chan looks amazing! She should wear that every day! To school, even! And in the shower and to sleep! She looks so amazing, I can see Hikaru turn away from too much beauty! Hee hee, Hika-chan's so cute with his little hormones!
Because Hunny knew about Hikaru's little crush, it appeared in his dream. Hikaru had turned away, blushing and grabbed Kaoru's hand fast. Kaoru simply giggled and took another bite of cake.
"Hikaru, don't be so neglectful! I wore this just for you!" Haru-chan is such a kidder!! Why would she lie like that to Hika-chan? Haha, she must know about his little crush, too! She's so fun! I love her!
"No you didn't." Hika-chan believes her, but he's just so cautious! Hika-chan, you dodged a bullet there! Haha! I love him, too!
"You're right, I didn't, but that doesn't mean you should look away!" Haru-chan's toying with him now. Why would she do something so mean…?
Haruhi hugged Hikaru, and he jumped up in anger. Now the happy scenery was changing. Marshmallow clouds were roasted into ash, lollipop trees were infested with ants, and cake mountains became stale and turned quickly into rocks. Hunny's whiskers were bent up, and the ears flopped down. Lightning struck the table, and Mori suddenly vanished.
"Don't make fun of me!!"
Hika-chan's scary when he gets like this!! If Haru-chan wasn't here, I would've still been in Sugar Candy Mountain! Wah, why did she have to come? Why did she have to put our friendship in danger!
"Hikaru!" Kao-chan's scared! His brother ran off, and now he's alone again!
Oranges toppled over Kaoru's shoulders. Hikaru was nowhere in sight. Haruhi looked like her own sour, mean self with a dirty yellow hoodie and sloppy berets in her hair. She talked about how all of them were babies and needed to grow up.
Haru-chan's so mean!! How dare she—
The mountains crumbled, and out came a giant cruise ship. On the side, it said S.S. Suou. Hunny could see Tamaki steering as hard as he could until he lost total control. A rock formed from Haruhi. She transformed into what had gotten them shipwrecked, the devil rock. Very vaguely, Hunny saw Mori drop seven cell phones into the pool on the deck.
"Takashi!! Tama-chan, turn left!!"
"Un!" Hunny shot up from his dream. Had Tamaki hit him with the monster cruise ship? No… It was just a dream. He had to be careful… Hunny believed that dreams did come true. Looking at Haruhi a moment, Hunny sighed.
"No way she's like that. Haru-chan's my friend."
With that being said, Hunny went back to sleep.
Kaoru and Hikaru
I'm so happy. My brother is by my side. His hands are so warm, his breath is soothing, and the rest of his body fits perfectly by mine. I never want to leave this position… Ever. Even if we are lying on dirt, grass, and maybe even bugs, all I care about is that I'm by my brother. I only care… about him.
Each of the brothers started out with the same dream. They were lying in the cabin in the same position they were in when they went to sleep. They faced each other, almost nose to nose, hands clasped together under their chins. Legs were intertwined, but for some reason no other member of the Host Club was inside. It was only them. It was their world.
Kaoru
I'm so glad I have Hikaru to myself. He's my one and only brother, and nothing will ever tear him away from me. There's nobody else in here… They all left us to starve. I know that Hikaru won't let that happen to me. We'll live on our own without the help of dono-sama or any of the others. Even Haruhi left us for dead. I'm actually rather grateful that I have Hikaru to me. I love him so much. I love him more than myself.
…Huh?
By the doorway, a shadowy figure stood. It was short and dark, but with a squint, the figure became clear as Haruhi.
She held a hand out to Hikaru, winking and motioning for him to follow.
Hikaru, she left us. Don't go with her. I love you. Please stay with me, and let's have our own world again forever and forever. Haruhi's just… and outsider.
Hikaru stood up without looking at his brother, and took Haruhi's hand fast. Kaoru caught a quick glimpse of her face, twisted and evil with horns sprouting from her head. She was coming to take Hikaru away purposely.
"Hikaru!!" He's leaving me… And he didn't even take one last look or say goodbye! How could he be so stupid! I love him more than any girl could!
Especially Haruhi!!
Kaoru stood up as well, and dashed out the door where the two had just departed. Suddenly, it was a change of scenery.
It's all… white. Where's my brother? Where's Haruhi? Why do I hear bells? I don't understand… Surely it's not… a wedding…
Hikaru and Haruhi stood at the top of a podium and a preacher spoke to them so softly that all Kaoru could hear was the deep, devilish voice he had. Again, he caught Haruhi turning back to him and sticking her tongue out, looking like the Grinch when he had his evil plan.
"Hikaru!! What the hell are you--"
"I'm so happy, Haruhi. I'm so happy you finally took me away from that disgusting boy who thought he looked like me. I never loved him."
Hikaru… Doesn't mean that. Surely, he loves me more than—
"You're welcome… darling."
THAT'S IT!!
Kaoru sprang through a horde of white dressed demons, and slapped Haruhi clear across the face. Looking at Hikaru who had a look of pure insolence, he began to cry.
How do I prove my love to this idiot… I-… I love him so much!!
"Hikaru, I LOVE you!" Oh no, what am I—
Finally, Kaoru caught himself in a white wedding gown and veil, kissing his brother deeply. It was creepy and strange. Surely he only loved Hikaru as a brother and he was just trying to prove it, but that was bound to make things worse.
Hikaru…
Hikaru
I'm happy. Kaoru loves me so much. He's all I'd ever want. That bumbling buffoon dono-sama wouldn't understand. If they had the nerve to leave us for dead, I say good riddance. We can find out way back ourselves All we need is teamwork and our brotherly love. We can do it. We can… We can live by ourselves.
Finally, Hikaru looked up to speak to his brother. In Kaoru's place was a dummy.
K-K-Kaoru?! Where is—
Sitting up, his eyes widened at the scene. It was Kaoru sitting in a chair with a spotlight over him, face buried in his hands. He was sobbing uncontrollably, the rest of the Host Club surrounding him.
"He… Hikaru used me as his property! He never loved me! I just wish… I just wish Hikaru would leave me alone!"
Kaoru… How could he think that? I do love him, and more than anything including myself combined! I have to tell him! I—What?!
He found himself with a lock over his mouth. Hikaru was then tied to a chair by the Hosts, all looking like heartless with hair covering their eyes and a gleam escaping the darkness. Kaoru looked up, red puffy eyes and a sniffle. It made him look unbelievably cute to Hikaru. The way he always looked.
"I say we leave him here."
"No… Take him with us and make him suffer."
"I think we should decapitate him slowly."
How could my friends say that…? Just because of Kaoru's false complaints? Were they false? Am I guilty of this crime I'm being persecuted for? Ah.. Kaoru's about to speak. His smile… It looks so… Gentle.
"Dump him."
Suddenly, scenery changed. Kaoru stood with an overlord's cloak and Tamaki's captain's hat. A smirk was upon his face, and four minions stood on either side of him. One was gigantic, one was tiny with big white gleams. On the other side, one had ellipses for eyes, and the other was sparkling.
"I gave you an order! Dunk him into the water!"
"Kaoru!!"
I can't stand this! Why would he do this to me?! He knows how much I love him! He knows—Wait.. Where's Haruhi? Why isn't she coming after me?
Behind him, Hikaru was lifted up by Haruhi. She wasn't the heartless looking creature anymore, and she looked sympathetic.
"I'm sorry, Hikaru… But I caused all of this. I wish I could take it back, but… You abused your brother."
Huh…? How did she cause all of this? This is all Kaoru's fault!! I want him back!
"Kaoru! I'm sorry for whatever I did!"
"Oh, so now you're sorry? It's time to do what I've always wanted to. HARUHI!"
She turned to the railing, and as Hikaru stared at the devil rock, he was heaved down towards it. As he flew, he began to cry and told himself how he deserved it. He deserved death. All of the sudden, the rock opened up and showed the overhead view of the inside of the cabin. He was thrown right into where he was lying, kicking about, and snapped up.
He and Kaoru were now awake now, calling each other's names, and hugging with sobs all around.
"Hikaru… Don't leave me! I love you!" Kaoru cried.
"Never! I'm sorry for everything I've done! I love you, too!"
Still… Kaoru was confused. Why did he go that far… The hug had been slightly awkward for the first time in his life.
Kyouya
Hmm.. This is rather strange. Even in my dreaming I'm standing at the shore of that stupid island. It is really tranquil and quiet, just the type of place to get my work done. I wonder…
Kyouya looked back from his place on the shore. The cabin was empty, and he found himself wearing Haruhi's yellow hoodie.
That's odd… Oh well. It is rather chilly out here. It can be as cold as the snow in the sun in any dream, so… Whatever.
Now to see if my best friend is awake.
Retreating quietly and slowly into the cabin, Kyouya smiled. There was a laptop case instead of grass sitting in the corner where he left it. Bending over to pick it up, he exited just as fast and took a seat at one of the "destroyed" lounge chairs. Next to it was a small table and one of the fruit sculptures. It was as new looking as can be, fresh fruit and not crushed from the crash. Still, in the corner of his eye, Kyouya could see the rubble that was left of the S.S. Suou. It didn't matter.
Hm?
The rubble came together. As Kyouya was powering up his laptop, each piece of rubble seemingly magically fit pieces together to create a radio tower. It even blinked a red light at the top.
I'll be. It gave me internet access.
Smiling, Kyouya began to type.
Life is good.
Tamaki
Tamaki's dream was very vague. Due to his sadness, he couldn't even dream straight. All he heard and saw were angry faces and insults.
My family… They don't love me the way I love them…! Haruhi, even my daughter doesn't want to look at me! I just want… I just want to go back to before this stupid cruise started!!
Or at least make the best of this…
Tamaki's imagination changed. It was a different island, and there were now huts separating everybody. He was standing in between them all, a red baggy shirt, a tan bucket hat, and matching shorts and flip-flops. He looked like… Gilligan.
"Tamiggan!!"
Oh no… It's the skipper! I'm in trouble now!
"Why did you cast me as the fat one!! These clothes are simply too big!!"
It looks like the skipper came from nowhere, the left of the island. Could it be stage left? Never mind… He's angry at me. I'd better reason with him.
"Because, skipper Mori, you're the biggest!" I gave the skipper a salute, but he shot my hand down and told me to stop making goofy faces… I'm offended.
Tamaki sighed and crawled into a corner, huddling up.
"Look darling, the dumb red boy is upset!"
Huh?! Dumb red boy!?!
"Ooh, yes, how ravishing! Dumb red boy, hoo hoo hoo!"
That rich couple, millionaire Hikaru and his wife, Kaoru!! They make it so hard to attend to the whole island! They're so picky… I wish they would just stop annoying me!
"Shut up, you unscrupulous couple!!" Skipper must not like when I insult the others… He hit me on the top of the head, and it hurt! .
Mori seemed a lot more lively to Tamaki, and he just realized it when he was ht on the head. For some reason, there was even a laugh track installed into his dream. Maybe it wouldn't be such a nightmare after all…
"Oh dear! Skipper Takashi, don't so that!! Tamiggan's very delicate, and he bruises easily!"
"I agree. If Tamiggan's not in shape, we may not be able to fix the radio and might not get off of this island!"
Now came Hunny. He was dressed in a big red sparkling dress, too much makeup, and his hair was long and red, up in a stylish manner. Beside him was Kyouya in a button up shirt that was tucked in to pleated pants. Shifting his glasses, he smiled.
"Oh, Professor Kyouya and Hunny-sama! I'm sorry… In front of a movie star and one prominently smarter than me… I won't embarrass myself any longer!!"
Standing up straight and saluting again, I did my best obedient pose. You should've seen the sparkles! I'm so beautiful. It made even movie star Hunny-sama jealous!
Hunny and Kyouya sweat dropped. They had asked Mori to stop, not Tamiggan.
"Oh, I see." Augh, millionaire Hikaru started making sounds again.
"He's trying to impress Haru-ann! What a fool, tee hee!"
A fool?! How could millionaire's wife Kaoru call me that?! I'm better than… her by a long shot!! Is he a her, or…
"Who's tryin' to impress me?"
Haruhi stepped out of one of the huts. Her hair was long and in braids, a tied up red checkered shirt and short denim shorts. She looked like a prostitute almost, and that make Tamaki flip out.
"Haru-Ann, cover up!" She looked so indecent, how could she?! She needs some more clothes! Daddy's on it! I don't want any rich bastards like Hikaru or Kaoru looking at her, even if they are married!!
But I don't understand why Skipper had to punch me in the head for giving her my shirt!! .
"Put your shirt back on, Tamiggan! We have to go find food! C'mon everybody, let's move!"
Hmph. Skipper Mori must not like the Host Club… Oh well! At least I could go and do something that doesn't involve being physically abused anymore. Movie star Hunny-sama is going with Skipper Mori, The rich couple is staying back, lazy as ever, and professor Kyouya is working on the radio.
That just leaves me and my daughter! I can protect her! WOO-HOO!!
All the others had left. Tamaki stood eager, giggling like a child and Haruhi was irritated. Her weight was shifted on one foot causing her hip to stick out a bit, and her arms were crossed.
"Sempai, why do I have to dress like this? D'you want to switch roles or something? I'd rather dress as Haruggan than Haru-ann… I'd probably do the work without getting distracted so easily, anyway."
My daughter is so cute!! I love her so much! But wait… I used to watch Gilligan's island with papa-san… Didn't Mary-ann… Have a love triangle?! With the professor and Gilligan?!
I had to act fast!!
"Haru-ann!! Don't love anybody on this island! I'm your father, and the professor is a pervert!!"
"…" she said nothing! I had to continue!!
"Haru-ann!! PERVERT!"
"Get your grimy fingers off of Haru-ann!"
Uh-oh… Professor Kyouya heard me.
Tamaki was being as dumb as he usually was in real life. Even a dream wouldn't change that. Kyouya had shoved him off of Haruhi and the scene changed to a spotlight on a shiny stage. Haruhi gazed up at Kyouya, Kyouya holding her close. One of her legs was poking out behind her.
"He'll never touch you again… Baby."
WHAAAAAAAT?!?!
"Haru-ann!!" Tamaki gasped, turning to his side and seeing Haruhi sleeping like an angel. With a frown, he got up and pulled her by her legs a little farther from Kyouya, towards the door.
Haruhi
Augh… My head hurts. That cruise was boring. Well, not boring, but really bothersome and aggravating. Hikaru and Kaoru wouldn't stop teasing me about makeup, Hunny-sempai and Mori-sempai were always asking me to join them in the stupidest things when I just wanted to read, Kyouya-sempai wouldn't stop talking about my debt, and don't even get me started on Tamaki-sempai.
Oh well, at least I'm home now… and debt free.
Haruhi's dream took place in front of her apartment. She was just dropped off and she was walking up the stairs right now. For some reason, she was wearing Tamaki's summer wear shirt. Her dad wasn't home, for it was time for him to be working at the okama bar. When she opened her door, her chocolate eyes widened.
Oh no… What are they doing there?!
"Haruhi." What does sempai want? Why is he sitting on my living room chair? They all look so organized… Him and Kyouya-sempai are sitting in the chairs next to each other, Hika and Kao on one side and Hunny-sempai and Mori-sempai on the other… Why do they look… So serious?
"You got a stain on my $7,000 shirt."
Huh?! I did not—Sempai's right! How did that get there?! I didn't eat today… That reminds me, I'm hungry…
"You know what that means, Haruhi."
Kyouya-sempai… He was as cold as usual.
"You will be Tamaki's slave… For life."
How cold must his heart get before he's satisfied?!
The chairs rose and transformed into thrones. The chairs on the sides grew tables until it looked like a courthouse, and Haruhi could feel the chain being linked to her ankle. Her clothes were tattered, and her face was dirt stained. Fatigue grew, and finally it was enough to make her fall to her knees.
"Unh! Tamaki-sempai…"
He smiled, wearing formal king attire, a crown and red cloak with the black lines along the white fuzz. All of the others evaporated into clouds, and the king rose a hand.
"Uh—ahh!" Tamaki-sempai's powers… He really is a king!
As a platform rose rapidly under Haruhi to elevate her to match Tamaki's throne, she looked up at him timidly. She had been wrong.
"My daughter…"
Huh? I'm still Tamaki-sempai's daughter..? How could I be the daughter of royalty, my clothes so tattered and so—Huh?
When she looked down, Haruhi let out a small gasp. She was wearing a princess' dress. It was red and pink, her hair long and pinned up in a bun, two decorative chopsticks poking out on one side. Makeup was on her face instead of dirt, and she felt refreshed. Now it was only a black space with spotlights. She stood, facing Tamaki as he smiled back.
Sempai… The vibe in here is so… Huh?
"Haruhi. You will always be royalty."
Tamaki's acting so strange… I wonder what's going on. Is he being serious, or is he using a metaphor?
Haruhi gasped again when she felt Tamaki's hand on her cheek.
"I love you."
What?!
He leaned in and kissed her cheek. Still, he was holding her cheek. Retreating, he looked at Haruhi with suave, delicate eyes. Haruhi felt a crown being placed on her head, and it all was swept away.
"Unh… Tamaki…Sempai.."
"Ha-Ha-Haruhi?!" Tamaki gasped. He dropped her legs fast and stood as scared as an elephant to a mouse. Oh no… She woke up when he was taking her away from Kyouya! What was he going to say on his behalf?!
Oh no… Now she was sitting upright and looking at him.
There was a short silence, awkward for Tamaki and rather peaceful for Haruhi. She smiled, and lay back down.
"Goodnight, Tamaki-sempai."

A/N!
My GOD that was a lot of work!! Oh my jesus!! Haha… But I like what I came up with. I had a feeling I didn't have enough Tama X Haru, so I added some at the end. There was some twincest, but in more of a creepy way… XD
And I love that one line from Hunny's dream:
Hee hee, Hika-chan's so cute with his little hormones!
That made me lmao every time I proofread. XDDD
