Thanks to those who reviewed on the last part!
"Lauren?" I said, standing shocked at the girl in front of me.
"Hey Haruko. Never thought I would see you here." she said nervously.
"Why are you so nervous? There is nothing to hide." I said, smiling as I went to hug her.
"Maybe it's just nerves, you know. From being in a new place." she said, scanning her eyes around.
"Hey Baby! I got us a table over here, so hurry up and get the food, I'm starving!" an all to familiar voice called out.
I looked past her and sucked in a deep breath.
I turned to her, my eyes narrowed in a glare. "Nice to know friendships continue even after I'm gone, huh Lauren." I said.
"I'm sorry! It just happened!" she protested.
"Just like it "just happened" with your ex and I. As I recall, you didn't speak to me for a week." I said, crossing my arms. (She doesn't mean...that...by "just happened")
"Haruko?" I turned to the voice of Mark, my ex-boyfriend.
"Well, fancy meeting you here. Can you let us know were the Kohls is? We are really lost." Mark said, smiling as he put his arm around Lauren.
"Sure. You go up one level and walk straight. You should see the Kohls dead ahead." I said smiling.
"Cool, thanks." He said, walking home with Lauren.
"...Haruko...there isn't a Kohls...whatever that is...here in Japan." Emi said, smiling nervously at me.
"Oh, I know." I said, smiling.
"So, who's hungry?" I said, turning to them with a bright smile on my face.

"Haruko, we are so sorry! Please forgive us!" Hikaru and Kaoru begged me, holding my feet.
I ignored them to the best of my ability, trying to walk over to my station so I could get ready for the club.
"Hikaru, Kaoru, please get off of Haruko so she can get ready." Kyoya calmly stated.
"Hello young maiden!" A short girl with short brown hair burst into the room.
"We have come to try and rescue you again!" Another girl burst into the room, tall with dirty-blonde hair.
"We won't take no for an answer." Finally, a very tall, dark brown-haired girl came into the room.
"Uh..." Aya, Ayano, Emi, and I just looked at each other.
"Oh! Four more maidens! It seems the girls at this school need our help now more then ever!" The first girl screeched, running up to us.
"Oh, my poor girls. Please explain to use what horrible deeds these boys have done to you." The tall one said, somehow flipping her short brown hair.
Emi looked at her with shining eyes. "You're my new idol!" she screeched, hugging the tall girl around her waist.
"Emi!" The entire host club yelled.
Emi began walking out with the girls that had burst in just a moment ago.
"EMI! You barely now them!" I screeched, running after them.
"Oh, we completely forgot to introduce ourselves." The tall short-haired one said, turning around and flipping her hair...again...what's with this chick?
Then, she and her friends started on some long rant about them and some Zuka Club. I turned to Kyoya.
"Hinako, Chizuru, and Benio." he said, pointing them out.
"Ah." I followed Emi and the three of them out. Aya and Ayano followed after me.
"Wait! Haruko!" The twins came running after us.
"What, I'm a little busy." I said coldly turning to them.
"How could you go with them? They are enemies of the Host Club!" The screeched, latching onto me.
"Let go of me!" I wrestled my way from their grasp.
"OH MY POOR MAIDEN!" The three girls screamed, jumping in front of me.
"How dare you hold her in such a manner!" The Benio screamed, shaking a fist at Hikaru and Kaoru.
…...
"Umm... they're my brothers." I stated, looking at them like they're crazy.
"Oh, I'm so sorry." The Benio said, walking up to me.
"Can we make it up to you by taking you on a shopping trip?" Chizuru asked.
"Sure. You had me at shopping." I said, running to catch up with Aya, Ayano, and Emi.
"Haruko!" The twins screamed.

"So they ruined your date?" Hinako asked, putting her arms around my shoulders.
"Yeah." I said sadly.
"Oh, you poor girl!" she screamed, sobbing into Benio's chest.
"Sorry. She's a little emotional." Chizuru said.
"It's ok. Thanks for the trip." I said, hopping out of the limo.
"OMG! THAT WAS AMAZING!" Emi screamed.
We walked back to the Host Club. As expected, they were still there. We had only been gone an hour.
"I'm really tired now." I said, laying on the couch, closing my eyes.
I felt a presence over me and opened my eyes a crack.
"Can I help you?" I asked, turning over.
The twins turned me back over.
"We have to go home." They said.
"But I don't want to move. I just laid down." I complained.
Hikaru picked me up and Kaoru grabbed my bags.
"Gosh Haruko, what have you been eating. You're heavy." Hikaru joked.
I grumbled and snuggled closer to his chest.
"I don't even know why I am talking to you guys. I'm still pretty angry." I said.
"Why am I carrying you then?" Hikaru asked.
"Because you're the older brother, it's your job." I stated.
We climbed into the limo.
"We are really sorry." Kaoru blurted out.
I cracked an eye open and looked at him.
"Well see if I forgive you." I said, turning back in towards Hikaru, smiling.
Kaoru breathed a sigh of relief.
"We are here." I climbed out of the limo, and turned around, waiting for Hikaru to pick me up.
"Hey sweetie." I turned and saw...him.
"YOU!"
Once again ending with an unknown character...sorry. I have a pretty good idea how I want this story to end, so a couple more chapters, then the finale in the story, then the sequel- already know what I'm doing for that- and if I still have fans, maybe a special prequel about Haruko's time in America!
