This chapter is in Haruhi's POV and is based on the song Underdog by Imagine Dragons.
Hey, that sounds like my luck
I get the short end of it
Oh I love to be
I love to be the underdog, Hey!
I have always been the underdog. Well, since I first attended Ouran anyway. I wanted to better myself as I wanted to pursue a career in law as did my late mom. I worked my ass off to get in and shortly after receiving my acceptance letter, this cheeky little guy in my neighbourhood threw chewing gum into my hair.
It was impossible to remove so I decided that the easiest thing was to simply cut off my long hair. Of course my dad being the drama queen he is almost required bereavement counselling afterwards he was so upset.
I told him that I didn't care that I looked like a boy. I am comfortable enough within myself that it doesn't bother me.
But since joining (ie being forced to join because of a little accident that involved an $80,000 vase and my clumsy self) the host club, it has become harder and harder to appear indifferent. Mostly because they are each so extraordinary in their own individual way but Hikaru stands out for me.
He knew from the moment that I walked in the door, that perhaps I may not be who I appear. It is refreshing to not be judged based on appearances...
With him, I don't feel like an underdog and that to me is the greatest gift of all.
It's difficult to appear nonchalant when you are surrounded by rich beautiful people who dislike you because of your financial situation. But I must persevere because what kind of lawyer tumbles at the very first hurdle?
And so I am proud to call Hikaru my friend and perhaps in the future maybe more? He has helped me (whilst also being an arrogant lovable rich bastard!)
Please read and review; I know this is absolutely appalling but please spare a thought!

I am so sorry that this chapter is so short; the next chapter will be much longer!
