The host club was in full swing as usual and all of the girls were especially gitty today.
One of the girls approached Tamaki and said " Oh Tamaki. My dearest Tamaki, why are you so beautiful?"
Tamaki bashfully looked away, ashamed of his answer. "I'm hoping to catch your eye even if for just one second."
While the girl blushed another one stepped in front of her, "Then why is your voice so very sweet and mellow?"
Tamaki turned his head once more "To set your nerves at ease, so that my true feelings might reach your heart."
The girl turned with his head and whispered."Why are your eyes filled with tears every time you look at me?"
When he heard those words he turned back towards the girls and whispered back. "Because the side of your beautiful smile causes the fountain inside of me to start overflowing."
The girls squealed in excitement and fainted around the king. "Oh, Tamaki."
Meanwhile in another corner of the room, the twins were entertaining there guests.
One of the girls glanced and the twins, scanning there outfits. "I think it's adorable that you're wearing matching kimonos."
Hikaru pointed towards there kimonos and said. "Our mother designed everything the hosts are wearing today. If you see something you like, we can take an order for you."
Karou joined in saying "Renette even helped us put them on."
Just as he finished he regretted what he had said. He saw his guests angry look over at Renette who was playing her violin in the corner. Jealous of what she had done.
Hikaru followed the gazes also but quickly decided to distract the girls, and grabbed Hikaru's body, pushing towards his own. "But you know the only one who will be undressing you is me, Kaoru."
Karou caught on and decided to shed a few tears to seal the deal. "Hikaru, you're embarrassing me, in front of everybody."
The girls seemed to forget about Renette and decided to swoon over the twins instead. "Oh! What a tender embrace!"
In another corner of the room Haruhi was gazing at the twins sighed. "They're up to that nonsense again."
One of Haruhi's guests smiled and said "Haruhi! You look so cute in your kimono. Almost like a girl."
Haruhi smiled back and said. 'Thanks."
Kyoya then interrupted her by saying. "Haruhi, you've booked another appointment. It seems you've had a pretty steady flow of new customers lately. Keep up the good work. I'm not going to charge you interest on your debt like I normally would. So keep this up, and you should be able to pay it off, although the rental fee on that kimono you're wearing is nothing to sneeze at."
Haruhi hung her head and sighed. "He's like some kind of heartless tax collector…"
Just then another girl walked up to Kyoya smiling "Hello Kyoya, I can't get over how great you look in that kimono. Are you planning to release any more picture books of the host club?
He flashed his fake grin back and checked his notebook. "Unfortunately, we don't have anything planned at present, ladies."
Suddenly Hikaru and Karou popped up form behind the couch. "But doesn't the club make a lot of money?"
"From the sale of promotional items?"
Kyoya responded by turning a page in his notebook. "That's true. But the items are poor quality. Those picture books were full of nothing but amateur hidden camera shots. However, if we want to create some higher-quality, money-making products, I'm afraid we'd have to draw money from the school's budget."
Just then, Renette popped up behind the couch also saying "So you do emit you stalk people! I knew it!"
When Kyoya didn't respond Hikaru and Karou pushed her head back behind the couch like a wack a mole game. They didn't need her swearing at Kyoya again because then there guests would feel unsettled.
Haruhi then shook her head looked away from Kyoya. "If it wasn't for Kyoya, the host club would spiral into the depths of bankruptcy."
Just then she felt someone poke her leg and looked down at a crying Honey. "Haru-chan, Haru-chan, I don't know how, but I lost one of my sandals."
Suddenly Mori appeared beside Honey and said. "Mitsukuni. I noticed that you dropped it."
Then he preceded to kneel on the floor, taking Honey's foot in his hand and placed the now found sandal on his foot Cinderella style.
Honey was elated by Mori's actions that he jumped into his arms while the girls watched, screaming in joy.
Haruhi walked away from the scene thinking Looks like tears are popular with the ladies today.
But how are they all able to cry so easily?
Suddenly Haruhi bumped against Hikaru and something fell out of his sleeve, falling to the floor. She picked it up and realized that it was eye drops. She turned to the twins and held up the evidence. What's this?"
Hikaru responded by shrugging his shoulders and turning to his brother. "For your information, it's common for a host to use eye drops."
Karou added. "No woman alive can resist a man on the brink of tears."
Just then Renette appeared behind Karou and said. "Well, I don't know if that's true. Men crying doesn't bother me."
Then she grabbed the eye drops out of Haruhi's hands and shrugged. "And they wanted me to use these stupid things also but I refused. I'm not going to turn into some sappy mambi iambi prissy girl."
Hikaru grabbed her shoulder and smiled. "Oh, don't be such a party-pooper you two."
Karou grabbed a small cake from behind him and gave one to Haruhi. "Here, Haruhi. This is for you."
Haruhi was genially surprised that someone was giving a present. " It's for me?"
Karou responded by smiling and one of the guest noticed the scene and asked. "I didn't know you liked sweets, Haruhi."
Harhui smiled at the girl and looked longly and the cake. "Well, to be honest with you, I don't really. But, you know, I think it would be a nice memorial offering for my mother."
The girls swooned and suddenly Tamaki came up behind her, spinning her around in one of his famous choke holds. "How admirable of you! Such devotion to your mother's memory."
He then grabbed more cakes off the table and placed them in her hand while having tears in his eyes. "Please, Haruhi, take as many of these as you like."
Renette then grabbed the cakes out of Haruhi's hands and placed them back. "Souh no one would want this many cakes, expect maybe Honey."
In which Honey smiled at while Haruhi pointed towards Tamaki's face. " Let me guess. The tears are fake."
Tamaki backed away in shame and ran his fingers through his hair, while red roses surrounded him. How could you? My tears are always genuine, Haruhi. Being able to cry without the use of eye drops is the mark of a true host."
Then he placed himself between Renette and Haruhi. (Which he does regularly) and smiled his signature smile. "Tell me. Do I impress you? Have you two fallen for me yet?"
Haruhi responded with "You wish."
While Renette chuckled and looked at Tamaki's hand on her shoulder . "I don't think you want me to answer that question Souh. And you have two seconds to get your hand off my shoulder before I lick it."
Ignoring Renette threat he pulled them both closer and said " My romantic overtures do not seem to be reaching you for some reason. Perhaps I should add a little more panache to my character."
Renette responded by backing away with her hands in front of her. "Oh God please don't. Your annoying as you are now."
Then she pretended to think for a second a said. "Alright two seconds is up! Give me your hand Souh!"
She then proceeded to try and lick Tamaki's hand while he ran around the room and said things like. " Renette don't do it!' and "You keep your dirty spit in your mouth!"and "Mommy save me!" (And so on.)
Renette had almost reached her target when her heard Hikaru and Karou say "Looks like the host club has a brand-new guest."
Everyone froze (while Renette having her tongue out.) and saw a girl watching them from behind a door in the corner.
Karou and Hikaru grabbed a rose from a near by vase and offered it to the mysteries girl saying. "Come on in. What are you waiting for?"
"Watching from afar is no fun."
"Please, Miss."
Tamaki then halted the twins and said. "Stop that. How many times do I have to tell you boys to be more courteous to our first-time guests."
He then walked up to the girl and offered his own rose. "Please, you don't have to be afraid, my princess. I welcome you to the Ouran host club."
The girl muttered something incoherent that no one could understand. Then she opened her mouth and screamed while pushing Tamaki away. "No! Don't touch me, you phony!"
Tamaki backed away and was shocked by the strangers words. "What do you mean I'm phony?"
The girl pointed accusing finger at the prince and stated. "Just what I said. You're phony. I find it hard to believe that someone like you is the prince character of this host club! You shouldn't go spreading your love around so easily like that, you stupid! You must be a dim-witted narcissist! You're incompetent! You're a commoner. You're disgusting."
After these words Tamaki was so shocked that he fell backwards in slow motion towards the ground. Everyone was surprised by the girls words, even Renette who's mouth was hung open in ether delight or annoyance, she wasn't sure which.
Kyoya stepped towards the girl and questioned. "I don't suppose you are…"
The girl brightened up immediately and stepped over Tamaki's body, and hugged a surprised Kyoya. "It's you, Kyoya. Oh, how I longed to meet you. My one and only prince charming."
Everyone had sat down on the sofa to discuss the new details they had learned besides Tamaki who was sitting in his corner, sulking.
Hikaru was just as confused as the rest of the club and asked. "Your fiancee?"
The girl smiled and said. "Of course. My name is Renge Hoshakuji, and I'm transferring into Ouran academy's 1st-year class A tomorrow."
Hikaru then looked over at Tamaki and sighed. "Why is he sulking?"
Karou answered with "Because mommy was keeping a secret from daddy."
Kyoya scoffed and rolled his eyes in response. He could be so dramatic sometimes. "Whatever. Why does everyone insist on referring to us like we're husband and wife?"
Renge put her hands together and thought longingly. "Oh this is a story of love at first sight. I couldn't resist the way you were adoring those flowers in the backyard when you thought no one else was looking. And how sweet it was when you reached out to that poor little injured kitten."
Both the twins and Renette looked at Renge like she was crazy. That didn't sound like Kyoya at all. "She serious?"
"Hey lady, are you on crack? I think you have the wrong person."
Renge then shot up out of her seat and pointed a finger at Renette. "No way! I could recognize my love anywhere. He's a gentleman who's kind to everyone and doesn't ask for anything in likes solitude, but in fact sometimes he gets lonely. He looks like the star of the popular dating sim, Uki-doki Memorial. You're my real-life Ichijo Miyabi."
Tamaki then shot up out of his corner and looked at Renge in horror. "Otaku!"
Hikaru pointed a nervous finger at Renge "Otaku?!"
Karou also pointed a finger "I've never seen one!"
And Renette hid behind the twins and said. "Ah! I didn't know they existed!"
Kyoya shook her head in annoyance and sighed. "I get it now. You're in love with that character. You're projecting the love onto me, and you somehow deluded yourself into thinking that we're engaged. I assume this Miyabi character probably wears glasses as well."
Tamaki then took a shaky step forward. "So, she made it up. You're not really her fiancé?"
Kyoya shook his head in response and stated. "Well no, I don't remember ever asking for her hand in marriage. Besides this is the first time I've ever met the woman."
Renge took a step closer to Kyoya and asked sweetly "According to my research, I understand that you are in charge managing the club. Is that true, Kyoya?"
Honey came up behind Renge and answered "That's right. Kyo-chan is our director."
Renge thought for a moment and then came up with a brilliant idea (her words not mine) "You're the club's director? That's perfect. Oh wow, I've always wanted to wear a sandwich board to advertise a business.I've made up my mind. From now on, I'm gonna be the manager of this host club."
Tamaki came up to Kyoya and whispered "Um, listen, Kyoya….."
In which Kyoya cut him off with "Miss Hoshokuji is the only daughter of a very important Otori family , please be polite and try not to offend her, all right?"
Which in Kyoya terms meant that they couldn't do anything to stop it. Renge grinned at the host club and held out her hand. "Well, boys, I can't wait to work with you."
Tomorrow came faster then expected and once again the group gathered in the music room. Tamaki turned towards the group and told them about his plan that he came up with not to long ago. "I thought about it a lot last night, and maybe having a lady manager isn't such a bad idea."
Hikaru and Karou were confused by the boss's idea and said. "Why do you say that?"
Tamaki smirked in response and pointed towards projected that began to play his idea. It showed Range, Renette, and Haruhi sitting on a large hill, looking out towards the town below. "Well, it's fairly obvious, isn't it? Renge just transferred into the same class as Haruhi and Renette. So if Haruhi has a girlfriend around, it could bring out the female within her. Renge's girlish air of tenderness might be able to stimulate both of there own sense of femininity.
When Renette heard Tamaki's plan she immediately got pissed off. "What the hell is that supposed to mean Souh? Am I not femin enough for you?"
Tamaki immediately backtracked his words in fear of being beaten to a pulp by the orange haired devil next to him. "Well I mean, sometimes you let of a more masculine presence."
Renette curled her fist a look towards the the twins for advice. "Can I hit him?"
Hikaru and Karou looked at the boss and then back to their best friend. They knew she was serious. "Not in public."
Renette sighed and placed her hands at her sides. He had won this round.
After Tamaki was sure that he wasn't going to get pummeled by the shadow figure next to him he continued his idea. "This is an important project, doesn't have any friends in class right now except for these two shady twins and that orange haired demon. That's not good for her."
Hikaru and Karou were equally insulted at his comment. The boss was brutal today. "Like you have room to talk."
Renette threw her arms up in response and said. "Is it lets make fun of Renette day or what Souh!?"
Before Renette could think about punching the king Renge bursted into the club room and a sweet smell filled Renette's nostrils.
Renge ran up to the center and waved a clothed package around. "Hey, everyone. "You'd be happy to know that your new manager, Renge has baked all of you some cookies."
Tamaki waltzed up to Renge and glanced at Renette, like to make a point. "oh, isn't she lady-like?
I'm so moved by your generosity. See, Renette you should take some advice from Renge, she knows how to be sophisticated."
Renette responded by rolling her eyes but stopped when Renge coldly said. "I didn't bake these cookies for you, you phony prince."
Which made Tamaki coil back and Renette chuckle loudly. sophisticated my ass.
Renge ran over to Kyoya with her batch of cookies and looked up at him expectedly. "I'm sorry, I burnt them a little bit. I did the best I could. And I already know what you're going to say."
Renge then acted as her favorite character from Oki Doki Memorial high and stated "Anything that you make for me is going to taste delicious, my dear."
She then blushed at her own words and swooned, while Kyoya was getting more annoyed and creeped out by the minute. "Oh, you're always so sweet to me, Kyoya."
Honey and Renette grabbed a cookie out of Renge's hand and took a bite and immediately regretted it. Honey looked at the group and gave a sad expression. "She wasn't kidding, these cookies really are burnt."
Renette on the other hand made a barfing sounds and rubbed her fingers on her tongue trying to get rid of the awful taste in her mouth. "Argh! What was that?! I don't think I've ever tasted a cookie that bad."
She then looked at the cookie and pressed it up to her face a made a sad expression. "Ohh you poor thing. You didn't even stand a chance my friend."
Suddenly Renge appeared behind the two, with snakes in her hair and red demon jumped back with tears in his eyes. "Waah, she's scaring me!"
Haruhi then took a cookie out of Renge's basket and took a small bite. She thought about it for a second and then concluded. "They're not that bad at all. They've got a good flavor to them."
Renette and Honey looked at Haruhi with shock and disgust. How can she think this piece of crap is good?
Hikaru and Karou watched the scene and glanced at the boss who was still frozen from Renge's pervious comment and thought of an idea.
They then grabbed another cookie and Karou circled Haruhi while Hikaru did the same to Renette.
Karou smirked and pretended to look surprised "Oh oh, Haruhi, you've got crumbs on your face." He then grabbed her face, stuck out his tongue and licked her check where the crumbs where.
This caused Tamaki to un-melt a bit and looked angry and Karou. Once he got this attention he looked at Hikaru who smiled and walked up to Renette.
Renette realized his presence and held the cookie in front of his face. "Honestly Haruhi, I don't understand how you think this crap is remotely enjoyable."
Hikaru then grabbed her face and pulled her close. "Well, maybe its because you aren't eating it right. May I try?"
He then made her bite one side of the cookie while Hikaru bit the other side so that there lips were almost touching. (It's pretty close but its not a kiss.)
When Hikaru pulled away he saw Tamaki's face explode. Tamaki ran up to Kyoya and screamed. "Did you see what they just did? He took a bite-"
In which Kyoya cut him off saying. "And suddenly, the group of classmates are closer than they've ever been before."
Haruhi acted normally and wiped off the place Karou licked. "You know, you could've just told me and I would've wiped it off. And if you wanted to try one, they're plenty here."
While Renette spit out the remains of the cookie in her mouth and coughed "Nope, sorry Hikaru but it still tastes like crap."
Tamaki rushed up to the girls and yelled "That's not the way you're supposed to react! You have to stay strong and reject them, then casually brush them to the side. Do you understand?"
Haruhi took a step back and sighed. "This is sexual harassment, senpai."
Tamaki was shocked and Haruhi's statement. "Sexual harassment? If that counts as sexual harassment, then they're twice as guilty! Someone, call the police."
Hikaru and Karou sighed and walked away from the boss. He was completely overrating. "Cut it out, boss. We're sorry."
Tamaki was still not convinced while Honey walked up to Renge, who was watching the whole scene and gave a piece offering. "Renge-chan, Renge-chan, want some? It's milk."
Renge muttered something under her breath that sounded like. "Lukewarm."
Honey was confused by her statement and said. "Huh?"
Renge then pointed her finger at all of them and and stated. "Every single one of you, except for Kyoya, all of your characters are lukewarm. Each of you needs to have some sort of dark side. You understand? Girls are vulnerable to handsome young men who are troubled. If you keep carrying on like this, it's only a matter of time before the girls get tired of you and stop coming all together. Are you trying to ruin my precious Kyoya's business? As your manager, it's my duty to change your character backgrounds. Let's start with you!"
Renge then pointed at Honey and stated " If all you are is cute, inside and out, then you're no different to a baby. Therefore, from now on, you are the baby-faced thug."
She then turned to Mori and said. "And Mori senpai, you're his childhood-friend, the flunky."
Next was Hikaru and Karou. "The twins will be basketball players enslaved in their own world."
Then Haruhi, "Haruhi, you're an honor student who's constantly being bullied."
Then Renette, "Renette, your the little sister of Tamaki who both the twins have confessed there undying love for you."
And then finally Tamaki. "And as for you, Tamaki, you're the the big brother of Renette who is secretly in love with her and has a sister complex and your also school idol who's admired for your good looks but you actually have an inferiority complex you're hiding from the world. The lonely prince."
Everyone was confused at Renge's statement expect for Tamaki who was having an identity crisis in the corner.
Renge then smiled up at Kyoya and said. "And Kyoya, you're perfect just the way you are now. So I want you to stay as kind and affectionate as ever, 'kay?"
Kyoya gave her a fake smile and said. "Thank you, I'm honored."
Tamaki leaned against a wall of to the side and looked like he was reasses his life. "The lonely prince. It's true. That title is perfect for me."
Haruhi scoffed on the other side of the room and sighed. "Yeah, right. She couldn't be farther from the truth."
Hikaru and Karou on the other hand weren't to thrilled with Renge's plan. "Come on, Kyoya senpai."
"You've gotta do something."
Kyoya responded by shrugging his shoulders. He didn't have a problem with Renge's idea. "Why? It seems like the boss is up for it."
Everyone shifted there eyes toward Tamaki who was trying out different poses. He turned to Renge and sadly asked. "How does this look, Renge? Do you think these poses work for a lonely prince?"
Renge was both surprised and impressed by Tamaki's actions. "Oh wow, you're pretty good at that, Tamaki. But you know it would be even more effective if you were standing in the rain."
Kyoya then turned away from the group and looked over his shoulder. "Let's just wait to see how things turn out. I bet it will be interesting. It always is."
Someone off in the distance cried "Get a stretcher! Take him to the infirmary, immediately!
Hikaru ran towards his brother not caring about the immediate game that had to take place "Kaoru, Kaoru, Kaoru!"
He kneeled on front of Karou and silent tears threatened to fall. How had this happened? He felt a man touch his shoulder and say. "You've got to get back in the game, Hikaru. We need you."
But Hikaru didn't care about the game all he cared about was his brother.
He suddenly heard loud foot steps and saw Renette running towards them. He was a little jealous that she was running towards Karou and not him. She stopped in front of them and fell to her knees "Karou….No no no! How could this happen! This is all my fault…"
Karou opened his eyes for a second and looked at both Hikaru and Renette. " Hikaru, Renette, listen to me. Please don't worry. There's nothing you can do. You can't share my pain. You are not the one who got hurt. Now, go on. And Renette…..I love you."
Renette crumbled to the ground, squeezing Karou's hand in the process while Hikaru hung his head and wispered. "I can't. It hurts. It hurts, Kaoru."
A sudden narrative could be heard overhead as it said. "Your pain is my doesn't matter to me if no one else understands. As long as we have each other, we can go on living."
Tamaki stood, his back being soaked by the rain that was falling above as he faced a tree. He turned around when he heard the sound of foot steps.
"Onii-chan! Kaou-chan is hurt! We have to go to the hospital!"
Tamaki looked at his little sister with sadness and felt a familiar feeling in the bottom of his chest. "Why?"
Renette was confused but he continued his statement. "Why must it be them? Why am I not good enough for you Renette?"
He then pulled Renette close to his chest and she could feel the rapid heart beats hammering in both of there soaked chest. "I am the schools idol. I have so many people that care about me but none of that matters. You are the only one that matters, Renette."
A soft blush came to her cheeks and she quietly pushed her brother away. "Onii-chan, I can't. This love that you want is forbidden. I can't give that to you."
She then looked back towards the school and said. "I have to go to the hospital."
Then she turned on her heels the ran towards the school, leaving the lonely prince behind.
The voice other appeared once again and said. "One lonely heart meets another. They pass each other, wounding one another. What are the hearts of these young duo made of?"
Haruhi ran briskly while checking over her shoulder, all the while hearing the wet sound of footprints in the distance. She tripped over the wet grass and fell on her face. Haruhi scrambled to get up while looking for her attacker.
Honey stepped out from the shadows with Mori by his side. He looked at Haruhi's fear and scoffed. "You can't run away forever. I'm gonna show you what happens to anyone that crosses me."
Mori tried to stop Honey's bullying by saying. "Don't do it, Mitsukuni. You should have realized by now that whenever you hurt others, you're really just hurting yourself."
Honey glared at Mori in response. He didn't need his help. "I didn't ask you for any want me to put you over my knee again?"
Mori looked away in response while the voiceover once more said. "Will it be the light of salvation that ultimately awaits these boys? Or will it be something else?"
Honey glared back to Haruhi and said. "You know, it really pisses me off when people don't know their place."
Suddenly Honey's rough exterior melted away and his eyes grew large with tears. He turn ran towards Haruhi and cried. " I'm so sorry, Haru-chan! I can't do this any more!"
Just then a loud voice, belonging to Renge yelled through a megaphone. "Cut! Cut! Cut! Cut!"
Then everything panned out to show a large camera crew and lights everywhere. "What's wrong with you? You got to stick to the script."
Honey whimpered to Renge and cried. "But I can't."
Renge rolled her eyes and pointed towards the camera crew. "Stop rolling, cameraman."
The camera man responded by giving Renge a thumbs up. "Yes, boss."
Hikaru and Karou went to sit in there cast chairs and questioned "How'd we go from changing our characters to shooting a movie about them?"
Haruhi looked around at the camera crew and said. "And why is there an entire film crew here to shoot it?"
Kyoya then came up behind them and stated. " Apparently, she flew them in from Hollywood. Don't you recognize the director? He directed the vampire movie, Millennial Snow. It was the No.1 grossing box-office hit in America last year."
Haruhi sighed and turned away. "Damn these rich people."
Hikaru ignored her comment and pointed towards the script. "And another thing, how come this stupid script portrays Kaoru as the pitcher?"
Haruhi was confused by his statement and asked. "What does that mean?"
Hikaru and Karou waved off her comment and shrugged. "If you don't now, never mind."
Haruhi was still confused but the thought disappeared when she saw Renette sitting in the corner. Haruhi then went over to her while smiling. "Hey, Renette your scene was really good."
Renette sighed and grabbed a bottle of water from the cooler underneath her. "Thanks Haruhi. Although, I still don't know how I agreed to this crap."
Haruhi gave her a sympathetic smile and sighed. Sometimes she didn't know what to make of Renette. Sometimes she was harsh and uncaring but then other times she showed a softer side to her. She was kind of hard to figure out.
Just then she heard footsteps and saw Tamaki running towards them. "Renette! Haruhi! So how was I? Did you like my performance?"
Haruhi smiled and stated. "It was pretty awesome. I'm surprised you were able to get into your character like that. You were really believable."
Renette wasn't going to answer his idiotic question until he looked other at her with puppy dog eyes. Like he was expecting her to give him an answer.
Renette sighed and ran her fingers through her hair and said. "Haruhi's right. It wasn't that bad Souh. It was actually pretty convincing."
Of course when you give Tamaki an inch he takes a mile so naturally when Renette said that he leaped up out of his seat and hugged Renette. "Ohh! Your so cute! I saw you blushing when I hugged you! You've fallen for me haven't you!"
Renette responded by pinching Tamaki's hand so that he would let her go and then she angry pointed her finger at him. All the while trying to hide a light blush that threatened to glaze her cheeks. "Wha...What! It's called acting Souh. Look it up! Plus you must be extremely delusional if you think Iv'e fallen for you. Only in your dreams Souh."
She then heard Renge say "Hey, Haruhi, Renette! You're on!"
Which caused her to turn around and walk away from the confused teen.
Renette and Haruhi turned the corner and saw Renge waving at them. When they came closer they saw a group of boys next to her. They looked kind of rough and annoyed for some reason. "Over here.
These two gentlemen have just agreed to make a special appearance in our film."
One of the boys looked over at her with a confused expression. "In your film?"
The other one was equally confused and asked. "What are you talking about?"
Renge ignored the boys questions and continued to fangirl. "After all, we're gonna need some tough guys for the big climax. That's when all of the club members come together to fight against the real villains at their school. According to this script, these two are from a wealthy family that got their wealth by being a part of the Japanese Mafia. Don't you think it's a brilliant casting choice?"
The boys were shocked about what Renge said. Franky they didn't even know who this girls was. "What's with this girl?"
"Whatever my dad does has nothing to do with me!"
Haruhi and Renette could tell that Renge was taking this script thing to far and Renette could tell that the boys were getting more and more pissed off by the second.
Of course Renge didn't listen to the boys and began to pull the boys sleeves. "Just come over here and wait for your cue."
Which resulted in one of the the boys pushing Renge away, forcefully. "Hey, you think you can push me around? You don't even know me."
Haruhi and Renette watched the altercation in horror. Before Renge could lose her footing Haruhi pushed Renge out of the way so that she wouldn't be injured. But in doing that, Haruhi lost her footing and began heading towards the solid wall and paint cans behind her.
CRASH
Haruhi opened her eyes and expected to feel pain in her head but she felt nothing. Then she heard a groan come from behind her and her eyes widened with shock.
There she saw Renette slump to the ground as she held her hand to her head. Had Renette saved her?
Renette opened her eyes and she had a look that could kill. She then looked at the shaken up Renge and stated. "God Damn it Renge! You can't do that! If you try to force people to do something then they are just going to get more pissed. I should know."
Haruhi crouched down next to Renette and looked her over for injuries. "Renette, are you ok?"
In which she grunted in response. Haruhi took that as a yes and turned to Renge with stern eyes. "Renette's right. You can't do that. If you judge people by their appearance you're stereotyping them, and you'll never see the person inside."
Renge was confused by the girls statements and muttered. "Um... I don't understand what you're trying to say."
Meanwhile, Back with the Host Club
Tamaki had just finished drying his hair when he heard a loud crash from where the girls had gone. He immediately thought the worst and rushed over to the back of the building. He turned the corner and asked worriedly. "What happened, Renette, Haruhi?"
His blood then froze when he saw the scene before him. Haruhi was crouched next to Renette who was slumped against the wall with her head down. When she heard his voice she looked up and Tamaki saw Renette's face, her eyes now filled with tears."
Tamaki immedilty looked for the perpetrators and saw two boys looking at the scene. He knew that if Renette was crying then this was serious.
He grabbed one of the boys by his shirt collar and pushed him agents the wall forcefully. He looked at the boy with murderish intend and hissed. "So, which one of you jerks started this?"
The boys tried to explain himself as fast as he could. "Wait, Souh! It's not what you think. That girl started it. She was giving us a hard time."
Haruhi then stood up and turned to Tamaki. She didn't need him to beat these guys up. "He's telling the truth, senpai. It wasn't their fault. They were provoked."
Tamaki believed Haruhi's statement and released the boys who ran away at lightning speed. "Let's get out of here."
He then ran up to Renette and crouched beside her, taking her head in his hand. "Renette, are you in any pain?"
Reunite grunted and rubbed her eyes in response. "Yeah, well I'm not doing that again. That hurt like a bitch. And my stupid contact came out."
Tamaki looked at Renette and released her head. So she hadn't been crying? "Your contact?"
Reunite gave him the are you dumb look and said. "Yeah. What do you think it was, stupid."
Tamaki gave a sighed a relief and started laughing. That's when he heard two panicked voices behind him. "Renette!"
Renette turned and saw the twins running over to her with frantic expressions. They both crouched down next to her and looked her over for injuries. Karou checked her head and cried. "Renette! Are you ok?!"
While Hikaru held her shoulders and exclaimed. "We heard a loud crash and we thought..."
Renette stopped Hikaru's sentence by placing her hand over his. "Hey, boys. Everything's ok. I'm ok."
Then they looked at each other and placed there heads on her shoulders. A sigh of relief escaped there mouths. Karou muttered something in her sleeves and then Hikaru followed.
"Thank god."
"I don't know what I would've done if you were hurt."
Reunite smiled and this a patted there orange spiky heads like if they were children.
That is until they heard Renge squealed with excitement and pointed to the cameraman. "You, you, please tell me you got that, Cameraman."
The cameraman respond giving Renge another thumbs up. "Yes, boss."
Renge then pointed to the host club who wasn't following "Other than Renette's contact falling-out it was perfect! Now all it needs is a moving narration by my sweet Kyoya."
Suddenly the club heard a loud crack and turned to see Kyoya with a rock in his hand and a shattered camera around him.
The cameraman couldn't believe what his saw and cried. "What'd you do to my camera?"
Kyoya walked up to the group and stated. "I'm terribly sorry, but I cannot allow there to be any record of a club member engaging in violence. I think it caused enough trouble around here, Renge. Please stop being such a pest."
Renge was shocked and petrified of what she just heard. This wasn't right. " A pest? But you're supposed to pat me on the head and told me not to worry. You're supposed to be kind and affectionate, Kyoya. Why are you acting so differently now? Tell me why."
Tamaki then came up behind Renge and sighed. "Because that's not the real Kyoya."
Renge looked down, depressed on what she just heard. Haruhi felt bad for her and said. "Does it really matter? Who cares if Kyoya is a little different than you expected him to be. Take a good look at the person inside and get to know him little by little. It's a lot more fun that way."
A few days past and when the movie was released the girls in the host club were in a tissy.
Tamaki smiled at his fellow princesses and said. "Hello ladies, come on in."
A few girls circled Tamaki and excitedly exclaimed "I bought the video of that film you made."
"I bought it too!"
"And so did I."
Tamaki was surprised at the girls reactions. He didn't even know the movie was released. "You did?"
The girls just continued there fangirling. "That scene in the rain was just phenomenal."
"I love the lonely prince."
"And the loving relationship between Hikaru and Kaoru was so sweet."
"I loved Renette's softer side! When she said Onii-chan...Ahh I kind of ship them now!"
"I want to see Honey acting like a thug again. He was so cute."
"I couldn't get enough of Haruhi's poignant expressions."
Tamaki looked over at Kyoya in confusion. "Kyoya?"
Kyoya smiled and looked at his black notebook. "I may have broken the camera's lens, but the footage that we had already shot wasn't damaged. Naturally, I did cut out that one violent scene. Sales have been pretty good so far. That Hollywood film crew did a fantastic job. But then I guess that's to be expected."
The twins shook there heads at his statement. "So, is this what you meant by interesting?"
Kyoya answered right away. Like he planned all of this. "It's best to have as much money as we can in the club's budget."
Tamaki glanced over at Renette who trying to get away from some girls who were complimenting her. She looked super uncomfortable Karou which made Tamaki chuckle under his breath.
The twins recognized this, looked at each other, then walked up to the boss. "Hey boss, why are you laughing?"
Tamaki looked at the twins, a bit embarrassed at his actions and back tracked. "Wha? Oh...I..was just thinking about a couple days ago when Renette's contact fell out. It was really funny."
The twins looked at each other in confusion and Tamaki recognized this. "What?"
They gave a silent look like if they were wondering if they were going to tell him or not. Then they looked and Tamaki and Hikaru spoke, then Karou.
"Uhh...Boss..."
"Renette doesn't wear contacts."
Tamaki let the words sink in and then his head whipped towards Renette.
Then did that mean that she really was crying?
Then why did she lie?
Somehow Tamaki realized that maybe Renette was more complex and difficult to understand then he thought.
Before he could think about this topic more Renge walked into the club room with a huge smile on her face. "Good day, everyone."
Tamaki walked up to Renge and questioned. "Renge? But I thought you had gone back to France already."
Rene looked at the club and smiled in response, grabbed Haruhi's hand and said "I can't believe I didn't realize this sooner. It was so chivalrous of you to risk your life to protect me. I could feel the love when you lectured me about judging people. When you said it was fun to get to know people little by little, you were talking about me."
Haurhi didn't realize what was going on but followed along with Renge. "Yeah..."
Renge then grabbed Haruhi's sleeve and pulled her out of the clubroom. "Come on, Haruhi.
Let's go to my house and play some games together. I think it's time you got to know me better."
Tamaki was furious with Renge's idea and started to run after Haruhi. Kyoya saw this and smiled. "But I thought you were the one who wanted her to have a female friend in the first place."
Tamaki pointed angrily at Renge and Haruhi and exclaimed. "Well, yeah, a female companion. Not a girlfriend!"
Tamaki then ran after the group saying. "No! Don't take Haruhi from me!"
