I'm sorry if it took to long. To tell you the truth I'm slightly disappointed in myself for not posting in so long. I'm asking that along with your regular reviews you tell me why I shouldn't bash my head across the keyboard in hopes of a concussion. Because I'm likely to at this rate since I'm at a bit of a stump in all my stories and no one has made any one shot requests, on top of the fact that my home life is falling apart at the moment.
Classes went as normal. I got a few looks from the rest of the club as they tried to figure out if I was ok but I ignored them. If they wants to know they could ask me themselves, not assume I read their minds. I walked in and Mori lead me through the halls like normal to our first period maths class. As soon as I opened the door I was bombarded by a very excited Hunny. He grabbed into a suffocating hug and spun me around and around many times. Thanks to my spinning mastery I managed to make certain we didn't fall, that is, until Hunny decided he would hop off and that sent me toward the floor. In a flash Mori had caught me around the shoulders, ensuring that my head stayed in tact for at least one more day.
"I'm sorry Saya-chan! I didn't mean to!" cried Hunny sadly as his eyes began to tear up.
Once my head stopped spinning I replied nicely, picking him up, "It's O.K. Hunny, I'm O.K.. See? Mori caught me before I could get hurt."
He cheered up and then jumped onto Mori's back, who carried them both over to their desks. I took my seat as well and chatted lightly with the two of them until the bell rang for class to start.
Throughout the day nothing exciting seemed to happen. I walked to each class like normal and, other than Tamaki's random outbursts, nothing unusual happened. I got to lunch and Sat with Tamaki and Kyouya, silently munching on my home made bento while they planned for club later today. I faintly heard mentions of 'dress up' and 'fancy outfits' but I paid them no mind. I was to busy thinking that this was one of the best days I have had at a school in a very, very long time. Then again the Host club seems to make everything seem just a little bit brighter, seeing as they are almost all so cheery. All but Kyouya -who I wonder about sometimes…he scares me a little, and that's saying something- and Mori -I can't help but wonder what is going on in his head sometimes…and he's so cute- Wait! I DID NOT just think that right?! I shook my head quickly and felt a slight blush taint my cheeks. Kyouya looked past the oblivious blonde between us and gave a strange look, one that almost said 'I don't even WANT to know, do I?'. Haha his expression is pretty accurate! I shook my head and he just nodded, turning back to their planning talk. I stood slowly and put my bento back in my bag. I walked into the classroom and noting that I had twenty minutes before class restarted, I left class in favor of the warm sunshine that shone brightly right outside. I stepped out into the garden and looked at all the lovely flowers that were just beginning to bloom in the warm spring weather. I hummed a light tune to myself and sat at the base of a large tree. I began to sing 'A thousand miles-by Vanessa Carlton' to myself to pass the time. Just when I sang the last note I saw a movement in front of me. I stayed still, curious as to what it was, and waited until it moved out more. It didn't move and so I switched to a more lighthearted song and sang 'Bubbly' by Colbie Caillat. The thing jumped out onto my lap and I noticed that is was the cat from the first day I met the Host Club.
"Hello neko-san! What was your name again….I think Hunny said it was….hm…..Cora? Yeah that's it!" I said aloud, only speaking to the cat because no one else was there..
I picked it up and fed her some of the leftovers from my bento. Cora settled on my lap happily and purred in content. Suddenly the five minutes bell rang and snapped my out of my peaceful thoughts. I picked Cora up and set her on my head for the time being so that I could gather my stuff. I picked up my bag and slung it over one shoulder and when I went to pick up Cora off my head she batted my hand away as if to say 'don't, I like it up here'. I chuckled and dashed to class. I made it on time and got a good number of strange looks from the people in my class. Mori raised his eyebrow at Cora on my head but just shook his head in amusement.
"I'm glad I could amuse you. I ran into her at break and I set her on my head when I heard the bell ring and she won't get off my head now so I just left her be," I explained in a tome that sounded like I was describing the weather and not explaining why I hat a kitten on my head.
Mori nodded slightly and commented, "I leave her outside so that she can play around during school. I just feed her every morning and let her hunt for dinner."
I chuckled slightly at the though of cute little Cora hunting rats on campus. The picture didn't seem to fit so I just shook it out of my head when I saw the teacher stand and begin teaching.
The rest of my day went as normal as you could expect. In other words: it was insane and full of craziness that you would never expect to be able to get used to. But I was used to it, in fact, I found that I enjoyed it.
Finally club time came around and I walked slowly to club while playing over a song I was working on in guitar. I pushed the door open and walked in. Suddenly I was pulled into the room and I heard Cora meow in displeasure. I caught her before she fell and cradled her close. She meowed in my face cutely and I turned to scold whoever had nearly made her fall. I saw not only the host club, but the Zuka club from before. Oh come on! Seriously? Them AGAIN?! I felt a large bead of sweat roll down the side of my face and I smacked Benio's hand off of my arm. Chizuru saw Cora and tried to grab her from me. I saw it coming and pulled her away, hissing like a cat (A/N: I seriously do this sometimes, if I don't like something I hiss at it like a kitty). Hinako came up on my other side when I wasn't looking and tried to remove Cora from my grasp. None of us expected for Core to bat her away like I did Chizuru, but to all of our amazement, that is exactly what she did.
"YAY!! Cora-Neko-chan likes me! Ha Zuka club! She likes me better!" I yelled in hyper excitement.
The three of them visibly drooped and held each other in comfort.
"The maiden doesn't like us!" 'She prefers this horrible club to ours?!' "Princess! Please don't hate us!"
They all cried around me. With each remark the irk mark on my forehead got bigger and at the last one I set my deadly gaze on Benio, the one who called me princess.
"DON'T CALL ME PRINCESS!!!" I yelled in my most scary voice.
Everyone quickly hid behind something/one and only Benio was left standing in front of me.
"NO ONE CAN CALL ME PRINCESS!!" I continued.
Benio cowered and tried to apologize to me but I ignored it and began walking toward her, with every honest intention to cause her an extreme amount of pain.
Suddenly Mori was in front of me, Hands on my shoulders, trying to keep me from injuring anyone, including myself.
"Sayuri, calm down. This isn't worth letting anyone get hurt over. I know your father called you that but I don't think he would like you hurting anyone just because they called you princess. I think he would be glad that someone else cares enough to call you that," Mori whispered soothingly.
Once Benio heard about my father she was quick to come over and apologize, "I didn't know and I offer only the most sincere of apologies."
She bowed deeply and I just shrugged Mori's hands off my shoulders and turned to leave the room. He was right, my dad wouldn't be proud of me for hurting anyone unless it was self defense. And especially not if he knew that it was just because I got called his special nickname. He knows I don't like anyone calling me that but he always did tell me that it was just because they cared. But I doubt they cared, they use that nickname on every female that walks through the door of the host club. It's not because I'm special, it's what they do, they do it to almost every girl. To try to make them feel good, to make them feel special and loved. I was inwardly fuming now that I had thought it through. It isn't a term of endearment, it's almost a catchphrase, they say it to every girl that walks though the doors. It's not because I'm special, I'm not special! They all lied! I felt my old mindset from Ronny set in. I grabbed Cora off my head and set her on the ground. She wasn't to pleased with me for that, if her annoyed meow was anything to go by, but I ignored it and walked out of the campus. Shortly after leaving I realized that I had no clue where on earth I was GOING. I ignored that small, yet very important, detail and continued down the road. Soon enough I came across a children's park. No one was there, which I thought was a bit odd but none the less I walked over to the swing and sat heavily on the hard plastic seat.
I chuckled bitterly before remarking to myself, "This is the most normal day I've had with them since I've met them. I'd hate to see their weird days."
I felt my phone vibrate in the pocket of the short shorts I had on under my dress. Pulling it out I saw that most of the host club was trying to call me. I ignored it and continued to swing idly I heard a soft rustle in the bush right behind me but I didn't let it show that I had taken any notice. I closed my eyes and thought, deeply, about everything. About how my mom was basically selling satan my soul and that there was nothing I could do about it. About how my daddy wasn't here to cradle me in his arms and tell me that somehow, someway, he'd find a way to make it better. About how Ronny was right, everyone did lie, they only liked me because they felt bad for me. They just made it all worse by letting me dream, if even for a little while, that someone other than my dad truly cared.
Like I said up top: home life sucks, why shouldn't I bash my head repeatedly into the keyboard in hopes of a concussion, one shout reviews or story suggestions. Yadayada thanks for reading ^_^
