I felt like doing a cute chapter, which included Kirimi, since she is so adorable and tiny and cute! Her debut episode was absolutely cute, and I just had to include a chapter of her in this story! :) Reviews and feedback are encouraged! Enjoy!

Chapter 11- Kirimi, not Sashimi!

"Your golden hair that glows in the flickering candlelight…" Nekozawa-senpai recites. "Your shining, ivory skin… your smile, mysterious as a flower in the moonlight… yes, it's like… it's like you're a cursed wax doll, burning with malevolence!" he suddenly growls evilly, only to be whacked upside the head by an enraged Renge.

"You've got it all wrong, you numbskull! Who told you to say those lines?! I thought we agreed that occult terms were off-limits!" she snarls.

What are we doing? Well, we're trying to help Nekozawa-senpai, the leader of the Black Magic Club, reform his character, to help him convince his five-year-old sister, Nekozawa Kirimi, that he's her princely big brother. When she first came into the Host Club, she said a bunch of things that were in shoujo manga, and it shocked us quite a bit. She's afraid of the dark, which Nekozawa-senpai loves. He, on the other hand, is afraid of the light. So, we're trying to help him with that. Renge had given him some lines for him to recite, but that has failed pretty badly.

As she continues to yell and scold Nekozawa-senpai like a Spartan general, I turn to Kyoya, suddenly remembering the incident from a few days ago. "Hey Kyoya?" I ask. He turns to me. "Listen, a few days ago, my ex-best friend came after me and beat me up, because I had apparently put up a picture of him and Mayumi kissing, which humiliated him and ruined his reputation. However, I did no such thing, because I don't have Facebook or any social media, and it's clear that a poser did this. Do you think you could try and find out who did it?" I ask.

Kyoya adjusts his glasses. "Well, I need to see what the photo is," he says, taking out his laptop. I immediately show him the actual link on Facebook, and he takes a closer look. "I believe what you say, Tetsuya. It is possible for me to trace the IP address of this person through Facebook chat, and I just have to see if they have done any chatting on Facebook…" he trails off. "This is very strange. It appears that this person simply created an account under your name just to put this photo up. There's no other photos or activity on this."

"Huh?!" I ask. "So it is a poser!"

Kyoya closes his laptop. "I'll try and find out the source of this image, Tetsuya," he tells me. "I have connections who will help me out. When I find out the information, I will let you know as soon as possible."

"Thanks," I say.

Right then, Kyoya steps up. "Okay, Nekozawa-senpai, you can have a break," he says. "Renge, let's take a break from this. Oh, and since we all took turns looking after Kirimi, you and Tetsuya are in charge of Kirimi." A glare shines off his glasses as he smirks.

What?! Why me?! However, I keep my mouth shut as Renge and I take Kirimi outside. We sit down on a bench in the courtyard and watch over Kirimi, who's happily playing with some flowers. She soon comes up to us, crying. "I fell and cut my elbow!" she sobs, showing me a small cut on her elbow.

For some reason, I find my heartstrings being pulled at the girl's tears. I gently hold her shoulders. "Oi, oi, oi, don't cry," I say softly, wiping away her tears. I take a small band aid box out of my pocket which I carry with me a lot. After cleaning out the cut, I place the band aid on her elbow. "There. It's all better."

She smiles at me. "Thanks, Onii-tan!" she thanks me. I smile as I ruffle her hair.

"No problem," I say. She's so cute and adorable. I can't help it. Her big innocent eyes are enough to melt the heart of probably even the most toughest delinquent out there.

Renge smiles. "You know, you're very good with little kids, especially little girls," she compliments.

I smile shyly. "Well, a good friend of mine has a little sister around her age, and whenever I hung out with my friend, she always loved to play with the both of us, especially me. I also kind of have a weak spot for little kids and babies," I say, blushing slightly.

She giggles. "That's so cute!" she says. "I never knew that kids were your soft spot!"

I blush even further. "Yeah. In all honesty, I can't wait to be an uncle, for when my soon-to-be sister-in-law has kids."

Renge looks at me in excitement. "Oh right! You said your brother's going to get married soon! When's their wedding?" she asks.

"It's going to be in the summer," I say. "It's going to be at a chapel, and we're inviting our grandparents, our aunt and uncle, and some close friends."

"Oh, that's great!" she says. "Congratulations!"

"Thanks," I say. "I'm kind of excited for the wedding."

"The last wedding I ever attended was for my aunt when I was seven," Renge tells me. "She had it in a castle in France, and it was one of the most amazing weddings ever. I was a flower girl, and it was so much fun."

Right then, we hear Kirimi coming up to us. "Can you two come and play with me?" she asks.

"Okay, Kirimi-chan," I say. "What would you like to play?"

Kirimi smiles. "Let's pretend that we're at a wedding!" she declares. "You'll be the groom," she says, pointing to me. "And you'll be the bride!" she says to Renge.

I feel my face heating up right then. "A-And you…?"

"I'll be the person to marry you!" she says happily.

Her smile is so cute and sweet that we just can't say no. In the end, we just go along. She quickly runs off, and comes back with a bunch of daisies, and a single daisy. "Here's your bouquet," she says, giving the bouquet to Renge. "And here's your tuxedo flower!"

Okay, this girl is just too cute right now. We turn and look at each other as Kirimi starts talking. "We have come here today to see this man and woman get married. Will you take this woman as your wife?" she asks me.

I blush slightly. "I-I do," I say shyly.

"Will you take this man as your husband?" she asks Renge.

Renge blushes. "I do."

"Yay! Now, you may kiss!" she cheers.

I blanch. "W-Wait, we're supposed to…"

Kirimi starts to pout, tears filling her eyes. I sigh. "Okay. But on the cheek," I say.

I gently hold Renge's face, brushing away a strand of her caramel-coloured hair. I slowly lean into her cheek as she stares at me with wide eyes, and I give a slight kiss on the cheek. Actually, I just barely brush my lips against her soft cheek, but even then, it's enough to send a slight thrill of joy through me. Her skin is so soft, and I could get a slight whiff of her hair, and it smells nice, like lotus flowers. I quickly pull away, turning away so she doesn't see me blushing.

"Yay! I now declare you husband and wife!" she cheers.

We both smile at her. "Let's go back to the club," I say. Renge nods.

"Yeah," she agrees.

We arrive back at the club, which is in the science room, but Kirimi starts to cry because it's too dark. When Tamaki starts to comfort her, Nekozawa-senpai suddenly starts to repeat, "I am a fantastic princely big brother" over and over, before shining a flashlight in his face.

"Amazing! Nekozawa-senpai's finally able to shine a flashlight in his own face!" Renge praises.

"See Kirimi-chan? That's your real big brother!" Tamaki says.

Kirimi walks up to Nekozawa-senpai… only to be terrified out of her wits when seeing him with a flashlight under his chin. She starts bawling in terror before running out of the room. "K-Kirimi!" Nekozawa-senpai calls in despair.

That must've been pretty terrifying for her. Poor thing. I think as her cries resonate through the hallways.

"Enough," he says. "Even if I go through more training, Kirimi won't accept me. Suoh-kun, you should be her replacement brother."

Tamaki steps up, a firm look on his face. "You're the one whom she truly wants to see, right? Then, if you're a man, you should face your fears, even if it kills you!"

"Oi, isn't that your sister in the courtyard?" Hikaru asks, looking through the now open windows.

"There's something down there with her," Kaoru adds. "Oh, it's a cat."

"Your family really loves cats, right?" I ask.

"No! It can't be!" Nekozawa-senpai suddenly exclaims. "Even though the Nekozawa family worships cats, there can't be something as occult as Kirimi becoming all friendly with a stray cat! Kirimi's afraid of animals, especially live cats!"

Much to our shock, Nekozawa-senpai suddenly breaks through the window. Even I'm shocked. I've seen guys punch each other through classrooms and hallways, but never break through windows! However, it all turns out to be great in the end, because Kirimi recognizes him as her real older brother, and there's a happy brother/sister reunion.

As we walk out of the school, I see Renge walking towards her limousine. "Oi, Renge!" I call. She turns around. "W-Would you like to attend my brother's wedding this summer?" I ask. "My brother said I could invite maybe one or two close friends."

She smiles. "I'd love to! Thanks for the invite, Tetsuya!"

"Okay then, see you tomorrow at school," I say. As I turn to walk away, I suddenly hear her call my name. "Wait, Tetsuya!"

I turn around. "What is it?" I ask. Suddenly, I'm given a kiss on the cheek. My eyes widen in shock as I touch my cheek, blushing. Renge looks down shyly.

"You kissed me on the cheek, so I thought I should do the same," she stammers. "Good night!" She quickly runs off.

I walk away, my mind already fuzzy. "R-Renge just… kissed my cheek…" I say, dazed. And it has given me a warm feeling, a warm, happy feeling.
