It had been 3 days since Sol had been forced to join to Host Club as their "dog", or errand boy. Although he was only the clubs dog, he was actually eyed by a few girls. A matter of fact, there were a few girls who asked about him. It was actually surprising. Sol didn't expect girls to be interested in him.
"Tamaki. I see you have a new member in the club. Is he a host member?"Tamaki and Kyoya were asked the most questions about Sol, which most of the time had the same answer. "No. For the moment he is just our errand boy."
Finally, all of the club members started to wonder about whether Sol should stay their errand boy. While Sol wasn't there, they would talk about whether he should be a host. They would say that he could be like Haruhi, getting a makeover and becoming a host. But they also had to think about if Sol would even want to be a host. But who cared! If he was gonna be like Haruhi, he wouldn't have a choice.
Girls flooded the garden gates outside the school, trying to peek through and see the handsome men that they would soon be sitting right next to. As the gates opened, the girls could see the beautiful cherry blossoms growing on the trees and the seven handsome men standing in front of them. "Welcome ladies!"
As all the girls sat on picnic blankets around their favorite hosts, Sol walked around to each blanket serving instant coffee on a platter. Of course, even though he had been at Ouran for four days, he didn't have a uniform yet. And since it was warm outside, he was just wearing shorts and a t-shirt, also making him the only one who wasn't dressed in a uniform.
"Excuse me. Would you like to sit with us," a young girl sitting with Haruhi asked Sol. At first, Sol didn't say a word and stared at Haruhi, but then Haruhi nodded and said he could. He sat beside Haruhi and the girl who asked, him feeling a bit awkward around these girls.
"Where did you get those scratches on your face?"
"Yes, I have been wondering the same thing."
"Did something happen to you?"
The three girls sitting with him and Haruhi truly didn't seem to be paying attention to Haruhi, but more to Sol. The first questions they asked were about the two scratches he had on his right cheek, which didn't really surprise him.
"My room mate was throwing two pencils at me when I was at home and I couldn't catch them. So they ended up cutting my face," Sol explained, rolling his eyes at the very thought of Gin. Of course, the three girls looked at each other with shocked faces. "Why in the world would they throw things at you? That's so mean," one of the girls complained, looking at his scratches closer.
"My room mate isn't exactly the most friendly person. He throws things at me all the time, no matter what it is," Sol sighed, looking at the girl each time she touched his cheek. Even though when she touched his scratches it didn't hurt, it felt weird having other people touch him, especially girls. He didn't know why it was odd having girls touch him, but it just was odd having someone other then his parents touch him.
While Sol, the three girls, and Haruhi talked, Tamaki, Kyoya, and the other club members watched in amazement. "Wow. He's getting quite a bit of attention, huh boss?," the twins stated as they watched each of the girls touch Sol's scratches. "With the way things are going, he could bring in more customers,"Kyoya pointed out, pushing up his glasses and staring down at his black book."For once the girls aren't paying much attention to Haru-chan. They seem to like Sol-chan now," little Honey giggled, holding onto Usa-chan, his pink stuffed bunny. As usual, Mori said nothing about it, but he still watched like the others did. "Men. I think it's about time we use him as an advantage. If we make him a host, we could get plenty of girls to come to the Host club," Tamaki stated with pride, thinking of many scenarios that could happen, although one stood out.
*Theater of Tamaki's mind*
As usual, girls flooded the hall as they waited for the doors of the Host Club to be opened. Only this time there were more girls then there ever were, all with excited faces. As the doors opened, the bright light appeared, and rose petals came at them, the sight of eight gorgeous boys stood there in front of them.
"Welcome back ladies!"
Sitting in a chair in the middle of the group was the amazingly handsome Tamaki, standing right behind the chair with his arms on the back of the chair was the smart Kyoya, on one side of Kyoya was Mori with Honey on his shoulders, on the other side of Kyoya was the mischievous Hikaru and Kaoru, and beside Honey and Mori was the cute Haruhi. Last but not least, standing beside the twins was the glorious Sol, his uniform making him look ten times handsomer then his old clothes did, his red hair being brushed down, his two scratches making him seem more cool, and his large orange-yellow eyes shining in the light of the room.
As always, girls sat with their favorite hosts. Four girls surrounded Tamaki, three circled Kyoya, two squealed over Hikaru and Kaoru's brotherly love, three girls giggled at Honey rolling around on Mori, three girls sat around Haruhi asking about his past, and four girls sat around Sol talking about his life out of school and who knew what else. Sol sat there with a grin on his face, answering each of the girls' questions and letting them look at and touch his scratches.
After a moment, Sol had looked over at Tamaki, smiled while showing his teeth, and making a cute little wink.
*End of Tamaki Theater*
"Men! Let operation 'Turn Sol into a Host' begin," Tamaki shouted.
When all the boys were inside and the guests were gone, Tamaki approached Sol and Haruhi with a large grin that usually meant he had something to say or he was planning something. "Sol! We have decided that your good looks shouldn't be wasted. So from now on you are going to be taught the ways of a host. You will be trained to be a gentlemen and a full fledged host."
Wait what? A host? Is he really going to make me a host, Sol thought as he and Haruhi both took in what Tamaki was saying. Tamaki then handed Haruhi a male's uniform and gave him and Sol a little push. "Go help our newbie get changed Haruhi." Haruhi did try to say something, but he was only yelled at."Go help him change! Now!"
Without wanting to hear him yell again, Haruhi took a hold of one of Sol's hands and tugged him to the back room where the hosts all changed. Almost as soon as Haruhi grabbed his hand, a small blush appeared on Sol's face. What was this? Why was he blushing? He had only ever blushed when someone grabbed his hand once, but that was when a girl did when he was little. But if it was only a girl he blushed from, why was he blushing when Haruhi did? Was Haruhi a girl? Impossible.
When they got there, Haruhi handed the uniform to Sol and he started to leave. But before he left, Haruhi had wanted to ask Sol what he thought about becoming a host. When he looked back, Sol was just getting the shirt on. But Haruhi saw something under the shirt, almost like a vest. Why would Sol have a vest on? Though, when he thought about it, there were some students in the school who wore vests under their uniforms for safety reasons. So Haruhi ignored it and went out of the room.
After a hair stylist came and Sol had his uniform on, everyone was amazed. When Sol walked out of the room, he was so handsome it was unbelievable! Like in Tamaki's mind theater, Sol had his uniform on which made him look good, his scratches looked more concealed and cool, his eyes were standing out a bit more, and his hair was brushed down so it wasn't so messy.
"Ohhhhh! You look so cute Sol-chan!"
"You really do. That uniform fits you perfectly."
Each of the other host members complimented Sol on how good he looked. It was kind of odd to him. He usually never styled his hair, he never wore a uniform, and he never tried to look handsome on purpose. But this felt kind of good. It wasn't often he was told that he looked good. He kind of liked it really.
"Now I see my decision has paid off," Tamaki stated with a proud voice, clearly impressed by his work.
For the rest of that day each of the hosts took turns being around Sol, trying to figure out what kind of host Sol would be. Of course, there were the seven original types to consider. Tamaki, the Princely type. Kyoya, the Cool type. Hikaru and Kaoru, the Little Devil types. Mori, the Strong Silent type. Honey, the Boy Lolita type. And Haruhi, the Natural type. Each of those types went to their own hosts, which meant Sol would need his own type. But what would it be?
When each of the hosts all got together and talked about what they found out, each of them said something similar.
"He doesn't seem all that social," the twins stated.
"He is a little smart but he isn't the smartest there is," Kyoya said.
"He was like Haru-chan! He likes cake and he liked Usa-chan," Honey happily added in, glad that he had someone who liked what he did.
"He isn't quite the princely type, plus he doesn't seem like much of a flirt. He could learn though," Tamaki pointed out, once again imagining himself teaching Sol the ways of a rich gentleman.
For a moment, Haruhi looked surprised. Sol is kinda like that, but that doesn't really seem like him, he thought. "In my opinion he seems more shy then anything."
Bingo. There was the word they all were trying to think of. "The Shy type," they all said at one time. Each of them told Haruhi good job for thinking of shy and they all went to their tables, thinking about how much more popular the host club would be now that they had a new host.
Well, here is chapter 2! It didn't really take long for Sol to become a host, huh? Anyway, I hope all y'all liked this one! I'll get the third chapter finished soon!
