Hey everyone! First of all, I wanna thank everyone who reviewed, added this story in their favorite and story alerts, and everything! You guys are amazing! So I just came back from Japan; I actually got here on Friday in the morning. Let me just say that I had horrible jetlag when I relived my Friday and it didn't help that I had a wedding to go to on Saturday. But one thing for sure is that I'm gonna miss Japan. I left my heart there. Oh and funny little fact, I made a friend there whose name is Takashi. Ah, I'll miss him and all my other native Japanese friends. Anyways, enjoy the chapter!

P.S.: My birthday is coming up in three days. ^_^

Chapter 23: Meeting the Sibs and Super Smash Bros.

On way to school Monday morning, I was walking on air. I was wearing a black skirt today – shorts underneath, of course – with black flats and I had on my normal Ouran blazer, white blouse shirt, and tie. All morning, I had a smile on my face and I felt like nothing could bring me down. Even my iPod seemed to have agreed to my mood as it kept on playing those happy romance songs.

"But I can't help falling in love with you," I sang as I approached Ouran.

Taking out my cell phone I took notice that I was forty minutes early than I normally am. I sighed and began walking to the Third Music Room. It took me about ten minutes to get there and once I did, I walked in.

The room was silent and empty. I walked towards the first empty table that I saw and sat down on the chair. After sitting down, I pulled out my laptop that I had brought with me. I turned it on and waited for everything to load. In about a minute it was ready for my use.

"Okay, time to check my email," I told myself as I opened the internet browser and went to check my mail.

I deleted the unnecessary items and began looking through the important ones. One of them caught my attention. I opened it and read it aloud.

"Dear Setsuna, this is Niwa Ami. Hope things are going well for you. I just wanted to let you know that thanks to you I was able to get the job with the fashion magazine. They loved how the shots came out and they were surprised to take notice that the model I used was you. Apparently there were already some photos of you that were going to be used in the issue that my photos were going to come out in.

But once again, thank you very much for everything. I mailed you the photos and a copy of the magazine where the photos are going to appear. Also, I attached digital copies for you too. Take care and thank you once again! Sincerely, Ami," I finished reading.

I was in shock. Wow, I couldn't believe that Ami got the job! Before I decided to email her back, I quickly downloaded the photos and without looking at them I emailed her back.

"Dear Ami, it's Setsuna! Wow congratulations on getting the job! I knew that you were going to be able to do it. They had photos of me already? Weird. I know that you're gonna be a success! Thank you for the copies and I wish you a lot of success! Take care! Sincerely, Setsuna," I typed in the message. With a click, I sent it to her.

That reminds me, I did see a package for me when I checked the mail box before leaving. Luckily for me, I placed in my messenger bag. I pulled it out and saw that it was from Ami. I opened it and indeed I found copies of the photos from the wedding that she had taken of me. There were about nine copies of each shot. So in total there were about forty-five pictures. Hmm, what an odd number of copies. The next thing I pulled out was the magazine.

I looked through a few pages when I suddenly shouted, "Holy shiznits!"

There in the magazine were a lot of photos of me, but not just me. Takashi also came out in it; well kinda since you couldn't tell that it was him, except for a few. I went through all the photos and saw that there were some from the sleepover and even when we went to Kyoya's water park thingy. A blush was plastered on my face. I turned back to look at the cover and that's when I noticed whose magazine it was.

"Hitachiin Fashion. No wonder," I contemplated. Before looking at the other photos, I checked the time. "Crap, class starts in fifteen minutes."

I put my laptop on hibernate and packed it up. I placed the magazine back into the package with my photos and into my messenger bag. Once that was complete, I walked out of the Third Music Room and headed towards my homeroom. I was glad that Takashi and Hunny weren't here yet since I still felt that blush on my face.

I kept on listening to my iPod and was now listening to The Bravery's Believe. I bobbed my head and lip-synced as the music kept on playing. I closed my eyes for a second and once I opened them my blush reappeared.

Takashi walked in the door and he looked hot like he always did. Stupid hormones calm down! But it wouldn't go away since the image of him kissing my corner lip kept on appearing before my eyes. Behind him came Hunny and once he saw me, he ran towards my direction with Takashi behind him. I then took off my iPod and placed it into the pocket of my blazer.

"Good morning, Suna-chan!" Hunny smiled at me as he took his seat.

"Morning, Hunny. Morning, Takashi," I blushed when I said Takashi's name.

"Good morning, Setsuna," Takashi said to me. I looked at him and I saw that he had a blush on his face too.

Wow!

Lecture began and it was a bit hard to concentrate. Luckily, it was based on the Shakespearean play Othello. If it was about A Midsummers Night Dream, my absolute favorite play, then for sure I would have paid more attention. I couldn't help but keep on stealing glances at Takashi.

When lunch came by, we all walked together to the lunch room to meet up with the others. Like before, I carried Hunny while Takashi would walk next to me and carried my bento for me. As we walked by some of the customers, they would shout out their "Kyaa!" which would get annoying. Once we arrived, we were flagged down by Hikaru and Kaoru.

Before I took my seat, I pointed directly at the twins, "You guys have a fashion magazine, ne?"

They blinked a couple of times before responding, "Yeah. Why?"

"Because I just found out today that all those photos of me are in your okaa-san's magazine!" I straight out told them. "Watch, I'll be right back. Haruhi, watch my food please," I asked her to do me the favor.

Once she nodded her head, I ran off. I made sure to dodge all of the people that would get in my way. I would stumble occasionally, but I managed to get there without falling. Thank Kami-sama for my reflexes. I walked over to my desk and from my messenger bag, I got the package. Now that I had the package, I ran out of the room and headed towards my destination.

"Phew that was close," I said to myself after my close collision with the door as I now walked over to the table where everyone was at. Haurhi handed over my bento as soon as I got there and I said my thanks.

I now stood at the head of the table. To my right was an empty seat – mine – then Hunny, followed by Takashi and Kyoya. On my left were Kaoru, Haruhi, Hikaru, and Tamaki. I pulled out the magazine and handed it to Haruhi.

"Thanks for letting me know!" I told them as everyone gathered around Haruhi as they began to flip open the magazine.

"Ahh, now we remember!" I heard Hikaru and Kaoru say.

"We helped okaa-san pick the pictures that she wanted in her magazine," Kaoru said as he looked at me. "All of the pictures were beautiful, but we chose the best ones."

"Everyone at okaa-san's company has wanted to know who you are," Hikaru told me.

"Look Takashi, you come out!" Hunny pointed out the image of me and Takashi sleeping together on the same bed.

'Noo! They weren't supposed to know about that!' I thought when everyone looked at a blushing me and a blushing Takashi.

Once they finished looking at the pictures, I immediately grabbed the magazine, placed it back into the package, grabbed my bento, and walked off.

"Suna-chan, where are you going?" I heard Hunny say.

"Somewhere to think," I shouted and walked out. I went out of the building and headed towards the gardens. I found a tree that wasn't occupied and sat down. I pulled out my bento and began to eat all the food that was in there. I finished in a few minutes and was about to finish eating an apple when I saw a squirrel right in front of me.

"Hey little fella," I smiled at the squirrel. It walked closer to me as it sniffed whether it was a safe or not to come near me. "It's okay. Here," I handed out my apple to it. The squirrel came closer to me and grabbed the apple and began to eat it. It was uber cute! "You're so cute!" I told the squirrel as it kept on eating the apple. Once the squirrel finished eating it and it ran off.

"Hi! Are you Ayase Setsuna?" A voice said in front of me.

I looked up and saw someone that seriously looked like Takashi. The only thing that was different though was that this guy had on the middle school uniform and had a huge smile on his face.

I blinked a couple of times before responding, "Um, yes?"

"I knew it! I was right when I saw you sitting there. Wow, you are really pretty like Taka said," The boy in front of me said. Takashi talks about me? "Oh! I didn't introduce myself. I'm Morinozuka Satoshi!" Satoshi held his hand out for me to shake.

I shook his hand while introducing myself while smiling, "Ayase Setsuna. Nice to meet you."

Satoshi then turned around and shouted, "Yasuchika! I told you that it was her. Come over here!"

I moved my body to look at who Satoshi was calling over. I almost tipped over in shock after seeing the boy who was now walking towards our direction. He looked like Hunny! The only difference was that this boy looked taller, wore glasses, had brown hair instead of Hunny's light brown hair, and looked serious. He too wore the middle school uniform.

"What is it, Satoshi?" The brown haired boy asked.

"Setsuna-senpai, this is Haninozuka Yasuchika. Yasuchika, this is Ayase Setsuna! The one that Taka and Mitsukuni always talk about," Satoshi introduced me.

"Nice to me you," I smiled at Yasuchika.

"It's a pleasure to meet you," Yasuchika said.

"May we join you, Setsuna-senpai?" Satoshi asked as he smiled.

"Oh, sure. Go ahead," I moved some of my stuff to let them sit down.

Satoshi sat next to me while Yasuchika sat right in front of us. I grabbed the bottle of water that I had with my and opened it. As I drank it, I moved my eyes to look at them back and forth. It was rather creepy in a sense how they look like their siblings but yet are opposite from them. Imagine when they are older! Girls will be all over those two. Hehe.

"What year are you both in?" I asked after taking a few gulps of my water.

"We're Third years in the middle school division. How do you like Ouran so far since you transferred over here?" Satoshi first answered and then asked.

"Oh, well I really like it. There are lots of nice people and I really like my classes. Plus I have fun with your brothers too!"

"You don't think Mitsukuni is weird?" Yasuchika asked me as he looked at me.

I was confused, "What do you mean by weird?"

"About the fact that he eats all these enormous cakes on his own and how he always has his pink rabbit on him and the fact that he likes sweets. It's not right! He should be tough and serious," Yasuchika somewhat ranted.

"Really? I never thought about it that way. But then, wouldn't that make me weird too since I do have an obsession with candy and sweets and anime and Ichigo and Shuuhei and Kakashi and Kiba and Zero and Dark Mousey and Kyou and Hatsuharu and Mamoru AKA Tuxedo Mask and Zoro and, um who am I missing?" I ranted.

I looked over at Satoshi and Yasuchika and took notice that they had a sweat drop over their heads. Damn I did it again. I somehow ended up ranting on all the guys I had an anime crush on. Great.

"Heheh, but yeah back to the point. I don't think that makes him weird. But that's my view. It's what makes him unique and cute. Just like how you have your own cuteness, Yasuchika."

Then suddenly, little blue fluffy birds surrounded Yasuchika as he got a bit excited over my comment about his cuteness. Holy snaps! It happens to him too! But once Yasuchika noticed that the little blue birds appeared, he immediately began to bat them away and regained his cool expression.

"Hmph, I still think that there is something wrong with Mitsukuni, even though I do somewhat look up after him," Yasuchika stubbornly said and silently whispered the last part.

That's when Satoshi made his move. He jumped over to Yasuchika and began to playfully give him a noogie. While he did that he said, "Yasuchika you should be respectful to your onii-san. No need to be rude."

"Satoshi, stop it!" Yasuchika cried out.

"Alright, alright."

Just looking at the two made me giggle. It was just a cute scene. The two younger boys looked at me and while Satoshi gave me a big smile, Yasuchika gave me a small but shy smile. I smiled back at them and then looked at my cell phone. Class was going to start in ten minutes.

"Well boys, I should be heading back to class now since it starts in ten minutes," I said to them as I got up and grabbed my empty bento.

"Aww, already?" Satoshi said as he too took out his cell phone and looked at the time. "Oh well. I know! Maybe we can hang out again during lunch or something."

I smiled and nodded my head, "Sure! Well boys, it was very nice to finally meet you two. See you later!" I waved and began to walk away.

"Bye-bye Setsuna-senpai!" Satoshi enthusiastically waved.

"Good-bye, Setsuna-senpai," Yasuchika said with a wave.

I waved back at the two and began to head back into the building. I grabbed my iPod from my blazer and placed the ear buds on. While I walked I listened to the sound of Paramore.

Right when I was about to enter the classroom, I felt someone grab my wrist. I pulled out on ear bud as I turned to look at who the person was. There was Takashi with Hunny on his shoulders.

"There you are Suna-chan! Where were you? We were worried about you, ne Takashi?" Hunny said as a few pink flowers appeared around him.

"Ah," Takashi replied as he looked directly at me.

I smiled at the two and said, "Let's just say that I met your opposites."

"Opposites? Ah, you mean Chika-chan and Satoshi, ne?" Hunny happily said.

"Bingo!" I replied as I walked into the classroom with the two following behind me. Once I reached my seat, I sat down and removed the last ear bud from my ear. Hunny sat down on his seat in front of me while Takashi sat on his.

"How did you meet them?" Takashi asked as he turned to look at me.

"Well it was really out of the blue. I was looking at this really cute squirrel and then Satoshi came up to me. He then called over Yasuchika and yeah," I explained to them with a smile.

Then class began. Now since we all now what happens during class time, let us skip to Host Club time.

Immediately once I stepped into the Third Music Room, I was in a death trap. Hikaru and Kaoru were hugging me.

"We are sorry, Setsuna-senpai, if you got mad about the magazine!" The cried as their hug kept on getting tighter and tighter. What is up with people hugging me to death, dag nabbit!

"Hikaru! Kaoru! I'm not mad, just please let me go! I can't breathe!" I was barely able to shout out.

"Huh?" The two let go of me and immediately I began to take deep breathes. They stared at me confused.

"I don't really care if my pictures are in Yuzuha-san's magazine. Just next time let me now, okay?" I smiled at them while stars surrounded me.

Great, it's happening to me again.

"Cute!" The two hugged me again.

I just sighed and gave up.

"So are we doing a theme today?" I asked the two as they still kept hugging me.

"Yup! We are doing Super Smash Bros.," Hikaru said to me as he was the first to let go.

"After the sleep over, we suggested to Tono that we should do one. He got really excited and then said that we are going to do it soon," Kaoru said as we began to walk towards the dressing room.

"Also this time, it's open to everyone since he put posters up saying that we are supposedly going to fight," they both dully said.

"Wait that means guys are going to come too?! Wow, this was Kyoya's idea, huh?" All they did was had to nod their heads and immediately I sweat dropped. 'I guess he wanted more profits. Damn Shadow King. He should be that one bad guy that Link always beats up in the Legend of Zelda games.'

Once we walked into the dressing rooms, we each parted to our changing rooms not before the two told me that they were gonna help me with my hair since I am going to need long and possibly blonde hair. Wait don't tell me I am going to be Princess Peach?!

I walked into my changing room and there I already found my costume. There in front of me was a blue and dark blue with red symbols spandex or leather full body suit waiting for me. I sighed in relief; I really didn't want to be Peach. I just don't like the pink.

Zero-Suit Samus had to be one of the coolest female characters in the Smash world or so I believe. I zipped down the zipper that was on the back and I was glad that the material the costume was made of allowed me to keep my undergarments on. I quickly undressed, removing all my clothes except for my bra, underwear and socks. I got dressed really fast, being the excited person I am. I was a bit hard to zip up the costume but I managed with my now gloved hands.

I looked at the mirror and I thought that I looked really cool. I just noticed that the costume really shows my figure. Crap, I better not see many hormonal guys. I checked to see if any of Samus's weapons were around. I found none. Hopefully it's outside.

"Hikaru, Kaoru, I'm ready to get my hair done!" I gleamed with excitement as I walked out in my costume.

"Wow, you were right, Hikaru. She does look better as Samus," I heard Kaoru as he and Hikaru walked over to me.

I looked at the two and laughed at their costumes. Of course, they decided to be the Mario Bros. Hikaru was dressed as Mario. He had everything: the white gloves, the blue denim overalls, the red shirt, the brown shoes, and the red cap with the M for Mario. Kaoru was Luigi. Just like his brother he had everything except in green and his hat had the L for Luigi.

"Well then Mario and Luigi, how are you going to do my hair?" I teased as I took a seat on one of the chairs that faced a mirror.

"Seeing that you would look better in your natural black hair instead of blonde, we are gonna put a wig on you since your hair is short," Hikaru explained as he held the wig up to let me see.

"Ah, okay. Do your stuff."

And they did. In a matter of a few minutes they had the wig nicely placed on my head. It looked just liked Samus's long blonde hair, except black and had bangs since I didn't have any. They even placed the red hair tie!

I got up from the chair and said, "Let's go and see the others. I wanna see what characters they are."

"Okay!" The two said in unison.

We walked back towards the main room and there I found everyone else. I walked towards the first person.

"Hiya, Pokémon Trainer! Where's all your Pokémon at?" I poked the person in front of me.

"Suna-chan, that hurt," Haruhi said as she rubbed her arm. She was fully clad in her Pokémon Trainer costume. She had the hat, the red shirt with black sleeves and collar and the blue symbol on it and white vertical stripe, the black wristband on her left wrist, the blue jeans with red and black shoes, and the yellow backpack. She also held a poké ball in her hand.

"Haruhi, your costume is cool! I wish I was Pokémon Trainer. I wanna go crazy throwing the poké ball around," I said as I walked around her to look at the costume fully. "We should go and find you a Pikachu!"

She sweat dropped at my last comment and said, "You look cool in your costume too, Suna-chan. You're Zero-Suit Samus, ne?"

"Yes I am!" I proudly said as I placed my hands on my hips.

I looked over to my right and there I found Link and Marth. I dragged Haruhi and walked over to the two characters. My nerdy self was rising as I said, "Wow, Tamaki! Kyoya! You guys look awesome!"

Tamaki was dresses as the Hero of Time, Link. He had on the brown boots that reached to his knees, the tan colored pants underneath the green tunic shirt, as well as his tanned long sleeved shirt that covered his neck. The left sleeve was being covered by an arm guard and his hand was covered by a brown fingerless glove which held a sword as well as his right which held his shield. On top of his head was the green long hat and around his waist was a brown leather belt that also went vertically cross his chest since it head the sheathe for the sword that was on his back.

Kyoya was dressed as Prince Marth. He had on a blue tunic shirt and a dark shade of blue pants. He had darker blue boots that had a strap on top of it going vertically. Over the blue tunic was a blue cape that hung over his shoulders. A red jewel seemed to hold it in place. His arms were covered in gloves that were fingerless, reached a bit below his elbow and were the same shade of blue as the cape. Around his waist was a brown belt which held the sheathe that was on his left side for the sword in which he held with his right hand. A headband was on top of his head.

"My daughters, you looked super cute!" Tamaki tried to glomp us as he saw us. All we had to do was move to the side and let him fall.

"Tamaki, you shouldn't do that since Link doesn't do that. Be in character!" I told him as I looked over him.

He immediately got up and said, "You're right! I must save my fair maidens when they arrive." As he finished saying that, he struck a pose with his sword.

Haruhi and I sweat dropped.

I looked over at Kyoya and asked, "Why is it that we are making today open for guys as well?"

"No reason," His glasses gleamed as he answered. "By the way here are your props, Setsuna-senpai," He handed me the gun and the whip.

'No reason, my ass,' I thought as I grabbed the weapons, placed them where they had to go which was on the belt on my waist and turned around. The next person I saw had to be the cutest little thing. Person is a better word for it.

I walked over to the Ice Climber and said, "Now don't you look cute, Hunny!"

Hunny and Usa-chan were dressed as the Ice Climbers. Hunny wore his blue/purplish looking jacket that had white trimming on the end of the sleeves, jacket, up vertically, around his neck, and around the edge of the hood that covered his hair. His pants were the same color as the jacket. He even had on the brown gloves and the white shoes with a horizontal stripe of the same color of the jacket. Usa-chan looked exactly like he did except in pink. It was just too cute! On both their hands, they held a hammer.

"Thankie, Suna-chan. You look super, super cool! Ne, Usa-chan?" Hunny asked his pink bunny.

I swear I thought I saw Usa-chan nod his little head. I blinked before a couple of times and just concluded that I was imagining it. I heard foot steps coming from behind me so I turned to look at who it was. Behind me was one of the characters that I thought was always hot, Ike.

I knew from the start that if Takashi was dressed as Ike, he was going to look super hot and I was right! He wore a navy blue tunic that had gold trimming on the collar, vertically down his chest, at the hem of the tunic including the long part of it on the back. He wore light tan colored pants with boots that were brown and grey looking which had a metal plate at the front of it. On his chest up to his left shoulder was a brown guard and a belt was wrapped around his waist. Draped over his shoulders was a red cape that had torn pieces at the bottom and a headband was tied around his forehead with the ends hanging lose and had torn pieces as well. On his hands were fingerless gloves that reached halfway his arms and had a metal plate covering it in which was currently holding a sword.

I have died and gone to heaven.

"Takashi, you look super cool!" I smiled at him as blush silently began to creep.

A blush immediately showed up on his face as he said, "Thank you." He then walked towards me and said, "You look amazing."

My blush got bigger as I rubbed the back of my neck and said, "Thanks!"

"Places people, our customers are coming!" Tamaki shouted at us as began to walk towards the center of the room.

I sighed and followed his movements. When we were all together, we did our poses. Tamaki was in the middle, like always. He held his shield in his right hand while his left hand held out his sword. On his left was Kyoya, who held his sword on his right hand and placed his left hand on his left hip. A bit in front of him were Hikaru and Kaoru who were back to back and held the tips of their caps. On Tamaki's right was Haruhi who held out her poke ball with her right hand and her left hand she held up a fist. In front of Haruhi was Hunny with Usa-chan and he posed by holding Usa-chan up to his chest. My pose consisted of me holding my gun on my right hand and I placed most of my weight on my right leg while having my left hand on my hip. Lastly, Takashi had placed his sword on his right shoulder.

The door soon opened and that's when we said, "Welcome."

Our first batch of customers to walk in was a mix of boys and girls. There were about seven girls and four boys. Kyoya being our money man and our mommy, he walks over to the group and begins to see who our customers want to be designated to. I just stared into space until I hear my name being called.

"Yeah?" I looked over towards Kyoya with the four boys behind him.

"Setsuna-senpai, these are your customers for the first half hour," Kyoya told me.

"Alright," I said as I looked at him. I then looked towards the boys and said, "Hi boys!"

"H-Hi," I heard them stutter out.

'What did I just get myself into?'
