I'M BAAAAAACK! :D Miss me? ;) Sorry I took so long, busy busy busy! Musical started, have to practice for District Chorus, have to study PreCalc for my final...oh, and a lovely end-of-semester project. Yet here I am! Because I love you! This one is mainly just fluff, if even that. Just a little bit.
"Brrrrrriiiiiiiiiinggg!" Went the bell. Another choir class and another school day was over. Ella was a little relieved: The piece of music they were learning was difficult and tedious. On top of that, she was eager to get to the Host Club. Today they wouldn't have any guests, which meant more free time with Kyoya. It had been a week, and they were at full-on honeymoon phase: They couldn't get enough of each other. Sometimes in the halls, Ella swore she felt the glares of some of his old guests in the halls. It was pretty impossible to keep something like this quiet for long (especially since Terri knew). The whole school knew about "Kyellya" in a day.
"Gee, Ella, where are you hurrying to?" Terri asked sarcastically. Ella simply rolled her eyes in response as she hooked her bag over her shoulder.
"Ugh, it's gonna be so cute, Kyoya and Ella with no guests around?" Mizune said wistfully. "I wish I could be a fly on the wall…"
Ella looked at her strangely, though smiling. "You watch us?"
Mizune nodded, grinning, perhaps a bit guiltily. "Oh yeah. Lots of us do. It's like watching a romance movie!"
Ella giggled. "Well, I'm glad you find us so entertaining." She turned to leave. "I'll see you later, guys."
"Bye!" they said knowingly.
…
Ella slipped in the door of Music Room 3 quietly, shutting it behind her unnoticed. She liked to observe what was going on around her sometimes. The chaos created by their combined personalities was almost peaceful, in its own way.
For example, right now Mori, Honey, Tamaki, and the Twins were playing Marco Polo in the middle of the room. It was rather comical: They had Mori blindfolded, and he was walking around with his arms held out in front of him, occasionally calling out "Marco." In his deep, monotone voice. Meanwhile, around him, the three boys ran and giggled and ducked from his every grab.
Haruhi was sitting on the windowsill, reading a book, apparently completely absorbed. "Could you guys keep it down a little, please?" she called. "This is a really good book…" she mumbled.
Tamaki rushed to her side. "Ah, but Haruhi dear, wouldn't you like to join us playing the games of your childhood?"
"Thanks Tamaki-senpai, but I got enough of those games when I was a kid."
Tamaki put his hands on his hips. "Haruhi?" he said expectantly.
She looked up. "Oh, sorry Tamaki. I forgot."
He grinned. "Oh, I could never be mad at you!" he pulled her close to him and hugged her tightly.
"Tamaki…you're…crushing…me!" she managed.
"Oh. Sorry." He said. He let her go, kissed the top of her head, and returned to the game. She smiled, rolled her eyes, and sat back down.
Ella looked around for the one missing member, but she couldn't find him…
"Looking for me?" a smooth, cool voice asked from behind her. She gasped and turned around, her hand over her heart.
"Don't do that, you scared me!" she laughed.
He smirked. "I'm sorry, darling." He said, wrapping is arms around her waist.
"No you're not." She said knowingly, wrapping her arms around his neck. He chuckled as she stood tiptoe to kiss him.
"You know me too well." He said. Her eyes were still closed, and their noses were touching. "Open your eyes." He commanded gently. She obliged. "Lovely." He said, smiling.
"Ellie-chaaaaaan!" came Honey's high voice as he ran across the room. Ella let go of Kyoya just in time to catch him as he jumped into her arms.
She laughed. "Well hello to you too, Honey."
"Ellie-chan, I got a special cake for you today!" he said proudly. "It's chocolate chocolate with caramel drizzle! 'Cause I asked Kyoya, and he told me that was your favorite!"
Ella smiled and raised her eyebrows in surprise. "It IS my favorite, how did Kyoya know?" she looked at him.
"I am a very observant individual." He grinned. "Go have your cake, I have things to go over." He kissed her on the cheek and pushed her in the direction of what he dubbed the "snack table" and sat down at his own table. Ella set Honey down, and he ran over giggling to the aforementioned snack table.
"Oh, wait." Ella paused and turned back to Kyoya, who looked up. "I got you a present."
"Oh?"
"Here." She grinned.
It was a leather bound notebook, lined on the inside, dark blue, with a heart stitched into a corner. Kyoya took it and admired it, slightly amazed. "Why, thank you, Ella…" he said.
She giggled proudly. "You're not the only one who's observant." She kissed him on the cheek and then went to join Honey at his table.
He sighed and laughed to himself, only thinking of how perfect she was and how lucky he was.
Suddenly, there came the sound of a loud motor and a piercing laugh.
"What on earth…" Ella wondered aloud.
"That's Renege-chan." Honey said. "I kinda forgot about her, How about you, Takashi?" Mori nodded.
Finally, from nowhere, a platform emerged, atop which stood a girl, arms extended to the sky in a dramatic pose. "Bet you all forgot about me, didn't ya?" she said, winking. "What are the boys of my lovely Host Club up to today, huh?" she asked. She stepped down and surveyed the room, hands on her hips. "Let's see…Haruhi is currently ensnared in the throes of his newest novel!" she said dramatically. "Meanwhile, Tamaki and the twins seem to be having an animated argument, and Kyoya is writing in what appears to be a brand new notebook!" And Honey and Mori are enjoying cake with…" she cocked her head. "Who is this."
Tamaki stood up. "Terribly sorry, Renege, I completely forgot: This is Ella Flynn. She's our official cosplay organizer."
Ella stood and smiled. She walked over and went to shake Renege's hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you."
Renege's eyes narrowed, and she turned her head slowly to look at Tamaki. "I'm sorry, I seem to have misheard you, do you mean to tell me that you hired a new member WITHOUT ASKING YOUR LADY MANAGER?!"
"AAAAAHHHH MOMMY HELLLLLLP MEEE SHE'S GONNA EAT MEEE!" Tamaki cried. (Truthfully, she did look very scary: She had the red eyes and the snake hair and appeared twice as large as Tamaki, who had tears in his eyes.)
Kyoya put a hand lightly on Renege's shoulder. "In all fairness, Renege, Tamaki is the president, he can do whatever he wants."
Renege sputtered for a moment, then sighed. "Well, logically I suppose you're right. Though I resent the idea of a need for a cosplay organizer…" she mumbled. She turned back to Ella with a smile. "Regardless, it's nice to meet you!" she said. "I'm sure it'll be nice to have another girl to share my love of the boys of the host club with. Are you a Honey fan, then?"
The twins snickered. "Not exactly." Kaouru said.
"Oh. Mori, then?" she smiled.
They laughed again. "Nope!" Hikaru said.
She turned in annoyance. "What is so funny?!"
Kyoya motioned mischievously for Ella to come sit in his lap. Ella grinned and obliged. "I love this game." She whispered.
"Me too." He whispered back, before kissing her.
"WHAT?!" The two heard Renege's voice. "What is going—what?!"
"What, you mean you haven't heard yet?" Kyoya said innocently. "Ella is my girlfriend."
Renege sputtered. "But—I—you—b—b—but…YOU KNOW I WAS IN FRANCE VISITING MY FATHER THIS WEEK HOW WAS I SUPPOSED TO KNOW THAT KYOYA SUDDENLY DECIDED SOMEBODY WAS GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM?!"
"Finally?" Ella asked.
"Renege came here under the delusion that she was engaged to Kyoya." Hikaru explained.
"Oh?" Ella was confused.
"Something about a video game character that looked just like him." Kaouru went on.
"Oh!" Ella said excitedly. "I've heard about those games, they're like interactive relationship games!"
"Uh huh!" Renege said excitedly.
"The storyline detail on those things must be incredible…" Ella said thoughtfully.
"Oh they are. So intricate!" she said, clasping Ella's hand's. "Would you like to come over and try one after this?"
"I'd love to!" Ella enthused.
The two walked, arm in arm, back to the table with the snacks, gossiping all the way.
"Well…it's nice they're getting along so well…" Tamaki said unsurely.
Kyoya frowned thoughtfully. "I agree." He said. "Though I can't help but feel I was just forgotten…"
He shrugged thoughtfully and turned to go back to his desk. Suddenly he felt a hand on his arm and turned around. Before he could even think the was being kissed.
"Don't worry." Ella said. "I didn't forget you." She winked and handed him a folder. "Here's my cosplay idea. Talk to you in a little." She kissed him one more time before darting off to rejoin Renege, Honey, and Mori."
He chuckled as he returned to his table. "She knows me too well." He thought.
I have SOOOOOOO many ideas! I'll be back soon, super duper promise! It's supposed to snow here this week. So probably that day. Love you all, R&R, hugs and kisses, see you soon!
