Chapter Fourteen

"Remind me again how the hell this happened?" I was currently standing in front of Kyouya-san's family's resort. It was a large building, but it had a certain elegance to it. The roof was made out of thick glass tiles, and it looked very wide and open. The perfect place if you felt the world was closing in on you.

Anyways, I wasn't really sure how they had managed to get me in that limo, but I do know that when they tried to put a blindfold on me, like they did to Haruhi, I flipped out at them. So here I was, standing in front of the building with a confused expression on my face.

"We're having a family trip. Didn't you say you wanted to have more family bonding?" I glared over at Kyouya-san, who didn't even look up at me while he spoke.

"Whatever. Let's just go in already."

"Will someone please tell me where the hell we're at?" I gave a pitying glance in Haruhi's direction, comforted by the fact I was able to see the building.

"We're at-" I yelped as Kaoru tackled me to the ground. "Ow." I mumbled to myself for a moment, before opening my eyes and realizing that Kaoru was still hovering over my body, his mouth close to my ear.

"Nori, it's a secret. And don't forget that Hikaru and I have complete control of you this weekend." I gasped up at him in horror, worried about what they might make me do if I told Haruhi where we were.

"You wouldn't?" Even I could hear the disbelief in my voice. He flashed me a 'host' smile, while he briefly nodded.

"We would."

"Come on love birds, we need to get inside." My face flushed, and I glared at Hikaru, as Kaoru, calmly stood up and away from me. I sighed, pushing myself up before stomping toward the building with a tight frown.

"Nori, wait up! You don't know where you're going!" I whirled around, glaring at Tamaki-san, before taking a deep breath, and counting to twenty.

"What's he doing?" I closed my eye, continuing my counting, despite the interruption when I reached the number five.

"Counting, it's a calming technique Tamaki-san. So lead the way." I gave a gesture with my arms, indicating that he should go first. After I gestured, Kyouya-san walked into the building, closely followed by Takashi-san who had Mitsukuni-san on his shoulders. I chuckled as Hikaru and Kaoru both grabbed onto Haruhi's arms, dragging her into the building, with Tamaki-san rushing after them protesting their treatment of Haruhi. We followed Kyouya-san for a few minutes, Tamaki-san still protesting, before they finally took the blindfold off of Haruhi, who was confused by the forest set up.

"I'll show Tamaki, Honey, Mori, and Nori to the changing room, and Kaoru and Hikaru can take Haruhi to her changing room. It's right up the path."

"No, no, no, no! That's not okay! My darling Haruhi cannot be left alone with those two nefarious twins!" I took my chance to jump in, relived to have an excuse not to change with the others.

"If it makes you feel any better Tamaki-san, I can go with them." He smiled brightly, grabbing my hands, his face in front of my own.

"Thank you for protecting Haruhi's honor Nori!" I could feel my eye twitch, her honor? And couldn't she protect herself just fine from the two?

"Uh, sure?" Once again relief pored into my body, as Kyouya-san pulled Tamaki-san away from me, and pulled him off towards the male changing rooms. Then Kaoru and Hikaru continued to literally drag Haruhi behind them. She gave me a pleading, and confused look, to which I just shrugged. There wasn't really anything I could do, because if I did do anything then Kaoru would make my life miserable. I followed the three of them with a slow pace, catching up with them when Kaoru and Hikaru tossed Haruhi at a pair of maid, twins with long black hair.

"Okay, take care of her."

"Very well. Miss Fujioka, right this way." Upon seeing the creepy, if not evil, grins that stretched across the maids' faces, Haruhi backed away, only to back up into Kaoru and Hikaru. I chuckled to myself as they gave her a similar smile, while Haruhi yelled out in confusion,

"W-wait! Why?" Of course she still didn't know anything, since Kaoru wouldn't let me tell her, so naturally she didn't know we were at a pool. The maids then grabbed Haruhi, pulled her into the dressing room.

"I'll also have to borrow a bathing suit, in case you forgot." The two barely even glanced at me, before responding,

"Don't worry, we have that covered." I nodded hesitantly, wondering about what exactly they meant by that.

"Just a minute! Just a minute!" I jumped in shock when I heard Haruhi's shout from inside the dressing room.

"We have been asked to help you choose a swimsuit." For once I was glad that I was an undercover guy, and that the twins couldn't dress me up. I glanced over at Kaoru as he yelled out,

"We brought all of this year's latest, that our mom designed. You can choose whichever one you want." Wow, that must be a whole lot of bathing suits then.

"Okay Miss Fujioka, please choose one."

"Thanks, but I don't need a swimsuit." I had a feeling that if Haruhi refused, than those maids would pick a swimsuit for her to wear.

"Well then Miss Fujioka, I will select one for you." Both Hikaru and Kaoru chuckled along with me.

"Hold on, not that one. I don't want a bikini." It's really not surprising that she wouldn't want a bikini, considering that she's usually dressed up like a guy.

"But you'd look so good in this one…" I glanced over at Tamaki-san, now in his bathing suit, as he started creeping towards the changing room.

"Oh wait… This one would be cute."

"Eh? But that's nothing more then strings, isn't it!" I blushed lightly, trying to imagine how that type of bathing suit would look. Hearing a thump, I glanced down noticing that Tamaki-san had fallen to the ground, his face bright red. I raised an eyebrow at him, wondering if he realized that he likes Haruhi or not, considering that he calls her his daughter.

"We should probably go change now." Hikaru and Kaoru both whirled around to look at me, surprise showing on their faces.

"But don't you want to see Haruhi in her bathing suit?" I gave them both a dry look, with my eyebrow raised at them. They couldn't have really forgotten, could they?

"Right, sorry." I nodded my head at Kaoru, before stating,

"Let's go, it's really warm in here and I want to go change. And I get grumpy when I overheat, so let's go." I grabbed onto their arms, pulling them behind me with ease, until we entered the dressing room for us. I gave a silent sigh of relief over the fact that none of the other hosts were currently in here. I then removed my jacket, and my tie, before starting on the buttons keeping my shirt together. I started to pull off my shirt, which would leave me in my bandages and tanktop. I turned around, picking up my jacket as to hang it, when I saw the shocked look on their faces.

"What are you doing?" I gave them a look of confusion, not sure what they were talking about.

"Changing?" They raised their eyebrows at me, confused themselves.

"But you're a girl." I started laughing, and was laughing so hard that I fell down holding my stomach. It took a few minutes before I could properly breath, and by then the two were giving me a look that clearly stated that they thought I was insane.

"Sorry, but shouldn't it be obvious? It's not like I'm taking my tanktop or bandages off, so it really doesn't matter. But if it makes you uncomfortable, you can wait outside." They continued to give me a 'you're crazy' look, but didn't move towards the door. "Okay, stop giving me that look. I'm not completely crazy. Now hurry up and change, the others are waiting for us."

C-H-A-N: Also! In the next chapter, maybe two, one of the hosts finds out Nori's secret. Anyone want to take a guess on who, or how? ;D
