Disclaimer: I do not own Hana Yori Dango.
Note to the Reader: Hey, everybody! I have so many more chapters to put up! Well, here goes nothing. This is chapter 3, I know that I said that I promised to keep it short but I have decided that I can only try... Sorry! In addition, a note for the cliffhanger haters, I am LAZY! Do not expect updates regularly. Although I do review for every story, I read so it is all proper and we have reached equilibrium. Megumi is turning bad… Hehehehehe…
Chapter 3
Two beautiful women step gracefully into the elegant dining hall, which many wealthy people desire, and they simply saunter through the doors and sat down at the table nearest the window. They did not even need to wait for a second.
"Megumi, what would you like to eat honey?" asked Tsukushi.
"Um…anything is fine with me mother," Replied Megumi. "May I be excused? I need to go to the restroom."
"Of course but be back soon. I will place our orders then, alright?"
"Yes, that will be fine," replied Megumi.
She headed for the women restroom with her bag and she sat down on the couch in the restroom, grabbed the new manga out of her book bag and began reading it with fresh ecstasy. She was excited to be able to read Hana Yori Dango, volume 14. It has been on the hold list at that particular bookstore for quite some time now.
Megumi scanned through the pages a bit and noted all the drawings done by the well-known Yoko Kamio. She loved reading her work. Megumi is reading it and if you want to know what it says inside then go buy it! Support Ms. Kamio!
'Hmm…how weird, is it a coincidence that all my mother, father, uncles and aunts names are in this manga?'
After five minutes of sitting on the couch in the restroom, she stood up, washed her hands, left the restroom as to look as if she had just finished using the restroom, and did nothing out of the ordinary.
"Megumi, you're back. I have ordered the special for us, is that alright?" asked Tsukushi.
"Of course," replied Megumi.
…
"Well, I was going to tell you this later but since we have nothing to discuss I will tell you about the party," said Tsukushi.
'Wait. Did she say party? Am I hearing things? No…!'
"It will be held tomorrow evening in the ballroom. Megumi, please try to mingle. Do not sit back in your gorgeous dresses and play with your younger brother and sister. Be more like T.J. and enjoy life. Is staying in your bedroom all night really so interesting?"
"Yes," replied Megumi. "I can read, write, and do what I enjoy doing all in one room."
"Well, this one you will have to attend completely because all of your cousins and friends will be attending. Also, is there anyone in particular that you would like to not invite?"
"No…"
They dined in peace at the restaurant and had a lovely meal of lobster and lasagna with cheesecake for dessert.
In the Domyoji mansion
Megumi and Tsukushi both entered the mansion. The driver brought in all the bags of clothing bought today and Sana handled the rest. Being the good girl that she is, she helped put away the clothes.
When they reached the last bag, Megumi took the last article out of the bag and found it was a gorgeous silk dress. Obviously, this meant that this was her dress for tonight.
Kira peered over at Megumi from the enormous closet and noticed the young girl standing there with an elegant, long, black dress cut in all the right areas to be sexy but not too revealing. Then there were rhinestones on the v-neck cut all the way down to the high-cut sides. It seems as if it were sent from the heavens in a wild color but gorgeous nonetheless.
"Wow, sugoi!" exclaimed Kira.
Of all the dresses she had seen her young mistress wear, this one is probably the first one that seemed mature, elegant, and dangerous all in one.
Carefully, Megumi placed the dress on her bed and told Kira to get the instructions from her mother about the preparation for this evening.
Skip the night and to the evening of dance
The time had gone by quickly and the adorable younger children (sorry, including T.J.) have arrived home.
What about following T.J. for a while? After all, it is boring to listen to one character...
T.J. stumbled inside the mansion, heading towards his bedroom to change for the evening. This morning, during breakfast, when Megumi left, their father told them about the party held this evening and they had to all go straight home after school.
He stepped into his bedroom to find all that he needed on his dresser and a stylist preparing to help him dress. His suit was a navy blue blazer with matching slacks and a white suit shirt under. Then, his tie consists of blue and gold crossing downwards until it reaches the very tips.
He took a shower and came out in thirty minutes. The stylist had already begun to help him put on his suit and tie with the matching shoes. His wet hair was blow dried and put up into a half spiked, half not spiked hairdo. Overall, he looked terrific after his makeover.
Stepping out of his room, the time was 4:45pm. His little brother and sister were also ready. Yuki is wearing a black suit with a little penguin tail and even wore a stovepipe hat and Kisa is wearing a pink dress with two ponytails curled so that they were bouncy. She looked so adorable and innocent that he grabbed her up and swung her around three times.
'Where's Megumi?'
Megumi is always the girl on time and today she seemed to be a bit late. He went over to her bedroom door and was about to knock but Megumi had already opened the door.
She stepped out, revealing a goddess before his very eyes. Her dress covered her body just right and her heels made her look even taller, adding a few inches to her regular height and her hair blew radiantly as each wave flounced from side to side as she walked.
'…will the guests be surprised about this…'
Never before had he seen his sister actually being force to attend a party so she rarely dressed up for long unless their mother forced her to. This time though, she had to dress up all night and actually do something.
He stared at his sister with everyone else who had gathered in the huge hallway.
"Megumi, you look beautiful dear," breaking the silence with Tsukasa's strong voice.
He went over and hugged his daughter. Tsukushi stood there with lots of pride and happiness at how well her daughter turned out. She walked closer to Megumi and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"You look wonderful sweetie!"
Clap-clap
"Okay, the party will begin in fifteen minutes. Tsukasa and I will head towards the door and greet the guests entering. The children will enter in fifteen after their names announced. Please be ready."
With that, Tsukushi left everyone standing in the hall and waiting to come down the steps.
Fifteen minutes later…
Tsukasa: We thank you all for attending Megumi Domyoji's seventeenth birthday. It is my honor to introduce the Domyoji family.
Tsukushi: First, we have our youngest daughter, Kisa Domyoji.
Kisa's appearance when she walked down the steps caused the whole audience to coo over the little girl's adorable appearance. Kisa ran over to her father as soon as she reached the bottom.
Tsukushi: Next, is our youngest son, Yuki.
Yuki walked down the steps with a cold glare and bored strut as the younger, unmarried women scream over the young heartbreaker. Yuki just stood next to his father.
Tsukushi: Please welcome our eldest son, Tsukasa Domyoji, Jr.
T.J. came down the stairs with Yuki's same ignorance but all the girls in his age rank screamed and hoped to get a better look at him.
Tsukushi: …and now please welcome our eldest daughter Megumi Domyoji…
The audience clapped politely but as soon as Megumi came close enough so that everyone could see her, the men and teens all drooled and wolf whistled at how hot she looked. While the women and her female classmates, stared at her in envy and admiration.
Tsukasa: Happy Birthday Megumi! Now how about a speech?
Megumi: Good evening to all the guests in this ballroom tonight. I would like to thank every one of you for attending and hope everyone will have a blast tonight. Thank you!
Applause
She stepped down from the podium and the Domyoji family set out to mingle with the guests.
Yuki and Kisa left with their parents while Megumi and T.J. went around finding their friends. Everywhere the two went, either boys ogled over Megumi or girls fainting over T.J.'s handsome features.
After awhile, they still could not find anyone and the dance was about to begin. All of a sudden, Kin comes over and asks Megumi to dance. Megumi agrees and in the background, as they danced, a young man in the dark is scheming carefully as he watched Megumi swirling gracefully on the dance floor.
