~With Host Club~

The majority of the group was chattering about what the theme would be tomorrow for the club. Being so deep into the conversation, the boys did not notice the man that had walked to their table. He put the check on the table and started to clean off the dishes.

Kaoru turned, seeing that the dishes started to disappear, expecting to see Rose but met with a built man. "Uh…you are not our waitress," catching the attention of the rest of the Hosts. Tamaki blinked in confusion. "What happened t the beautiful princess?" making the man cross his arms.

The man raised a brow to Tamaki. "Well, I sure hope I did not turn into a waitress suddenly, and why are you calling her a princess buddy?" Hikaru glanced at the man, annoyed. "Why are you her boyfriend or something?" which made the guy smirk.

"Nope, not at all, my name is Artie, and she is not my girlfriend; she is my employee…oh and also my little sister fellas. So mind answering the question now?" as Artie finished cleaning the table, waiting for a response.

Tamaki's and Hikaru's faces drained of color as they stared at Artie, who rolled his eyes. "Right, that is what I thought. The so-called 'Princess' has left early today. Anyway's thanks for coming to Twilight; Come back soon!" with a smile and wave, Artie headed back to the kitchen.

"Well, that was awkward…." Kaoru looked around the table as Kyoya paid the bill and got up. Slowly each host climbed from the booth and followed out. At the entrance, Tamaki turned to the group. "Since the princess has left, we shall just catch her in the morning. Whoever finds Rose will invite her to the club, remember to use your charm gentleman" as the group disbursed to their cars.

~With Rose~

After getting my bag from my locker, I took hold of Lily's tiny hand and exited through the back door to avoid Eric. *Do not need to deal with him right now…I will suffer another time* as we stepped onto the sidewalk, continuing to our destination. "Hey, sissy!" Lily looked up at me.

Looking to see her face full of excitement. "Is it true that you are watching Harry and me this Friday?" she kept her eyes focused on me, waiting for confirmation. I tilted my head to her with a grin. "Of course! I will make dinner, then I will make my awesome ice cream sundaes, which we will eat watching a Harry Potter marathon!" using one hand to do a jazz hand.

Lily's eyes lit up more, "Really?! Can you teach me how to fly too?" with a few chuckles escaping from me. "Well, hmm, I could, but it won't be easy. Now let's go pick up your brother, shall we?" Lily nod's and began to tell me about her day as we walked a few blocks until we stopped in front of a building that looked to be the place.

Getting to the door, I opened it as Lily slipped quietly behind me and became her very private self as we got closer to the practice room. Coming to a stop at the door was a sign with big block letters 'Mrs. Vander' *This is their teacher's name from what my Aunt told me…* knocking loudly three times.

Lily pressed herself into me more, trying to hide in my shirt as she heard the heels click on the other side of the door. As the doorknob turned open, I could feel Lily become stiff. Going to ask her if she was alright when I came face to face with their teacher.

The woman stood tall about six feet in very high red heels causing her to tower over me. She wore a tight black dress that was way too small for her body and a gray blazer over her arms. Icy blue eyes glared straight into my soul as dark strands of her hair fell out of her bun resting on her head. *Alright, I can see why Lily might call her a witch but, you can not judge by appearance, right?* looking over the woman's shoulder. I found my other cousin sitting at the piano.

Messy light brown locks cover his head as some pieces fall in front of his dark chocolate eyes *Harry…* that brighten at the sight of me at the doorway. He jumped from his spot, stumbling out of his seat, but caught himself right before landing on his face. Harry lifted his head, sending me a silly grin translating to 'I'm alright, no worries as he rushed to grab his bag.

In a snobby high pitched voice, "And who are YOU?" broke my gaze. "Uh, I am Rose, and the boy you have is my little brother who I am picking up…." I stared back into those icicles on her face. Her eyes scanned me, judging me with each glance. I crossed my arms with an emotionless look as Harry approached us.

Sliding by Vander, Harry latched onto me for a quick hug before turning to her. "Thank you, Miss. Vander, for the lesson…" causing a devilish smirk to appear on her face. "Of course, sweetie," Harry cringed at her word of endearment. I placed a hand on his shoulder and the other on his sisters as I guided them towards the exit.

Moving quick as possible since neither one wants to be there another minute. "Oh, also make sure that little rugrat there comes to the next lesson will you darling thanks…" as the crude woman shut her door, not waiting for a response.
