A/N.: I know, I know right now, it doesn't look like a romantic fic, but it will be, trust me! So I hope I will live up to the romantic/humor genre. I'm actually more afraid of the "humor" part, as I've only written romantic stuff and angst before…
And please, I must say once again, but please review! Though I wouldn't be able to update the next chapter this quickly, because now I will have to go study, and in the weekend I will have my own class trip :D but I promise I will write as soon as I can! So review please, make me want to write more and more and more!
Oh, and if someone, maybe wants to know a bit more about Hungary, then go to wikipedia, and type in Hungary into search.
Also, I would like the readers to feel closer to the story, so I'm gonna do lil' videos for each chapter with the pronounciation of foreign words. And I will also take pictures of acutal locations of later chapters. So tune in for them!
For the vids, go to youtube and type: "Class trip to hell chapter" into the search bar!
Chapter two: Choosing of hosts
The classes were over, but this time Haruhi was closely paying attention. And besides, their homeroom teacher was in front of the blackboard, not the class rep. But unlike Haruhi's, most eyes weren't fixed on the teacher, rather everyone was staring at the neat boxes on his desk next to him.
"I'm sorry, but you will have to wait a little longer, as first, I must explain some important things about this program."
The twins next to Haruhi groaned loudly in clear annoyance.
"But don't worry, right after you can get your hands on these." he pointed on the boxes, while speaking.
"First of all, lets talk about the wherewithal."
"How typical." remarked Haruhi silently.
"As most of the hosts are commoners, they may lack some provisions, you may think of as essential, though all of their financial background is steady, so don't expect some extremly poor people, starving to death in front of your eyes. But you must understand, that most of your needs are very different from the normal people's, so if you want some special treatment, you should contact your hosts, and send them money to arrange it. Though this is optional, we don't want to hear any complaints, if you don't bother to do this."
The teacher looked around menancingly. Next to Haruhi the twins were already bored to death, and Hikaru was even snoring, but it didn't bother the least the girl.
"Also, the school is providing an additioanal amount of money/person to every host. This will most likely help them a lot, but we would advise you to bring there money, and pay for additional fees like taxi charges, or admissions, as your financial sources are most likely to be much more superior, than theirs."
Haruhi had to wonder if this applied to her as well.
"Now on with the guideline!" said the teacher happily, while several people groaned, but of course, most loudly the twins.
"We have about two weeks before the departure. We will take private jet ont he 3th of June, Sunday, at 10 a.m., and will arrive in Budapest around 5 p.m. Right after, everyone will meet their respective hosts, who will take them to their home towns. We will book some trucks, from a delivery company for the luggages, but please don't bring more than 10 suitcase/per person."
"Rich bastards…" thought Haruhi, as she was reminded, that they had only 3 suitcases at home, and she took notes while everyone else just stared blankly, or kept him or herself busy, like Kaoru, who was reading a magazine under his desk, unlike Hikaru, who acted out his death by boredom very theatrically
"For the first week, you will stay at your host's homes, and they will arrange you programs, and intorduce you to their culture. Be nice to them, we don't want anyone having a bad impression of Ouran."
The teacher, once again tried to act menancingly, but it was obvious, that expect for Haruhi, and maybe the class rep, no one was paying him attention, so he just sighed, and continued.
"On the 10th of June, Sunday, everyone should get back to Budapest, and for the second week, we will have collective programs, travelling around the country. The last two days we will spend in Budapest, and on the 18th of June, Monday, we will take a flight back to Japan."
In the back rows some girls were chatting excitedly, while others were giggling at Hikaru, who was imitating a gun with his hand, and shoothing his head with it, then collapsing on his desk.
The teacher rolled his eyes.
"As for those, who unfortunately now missed some important things, don't worry, some time later a guideline will be provided to everyone with a full description of the program. But please don't forget, that we are going on the 3th of June! Everyone should arrive, at least an hour before the departure, which means, that you should be there by 9 a.m."
"Why soooo early!?" whined Hikaru.
"Sensei, which airport should we go to?" asked Kaoru, ignoring his twin's whining.
"Well, Hitachiin-sama, it's still not decided. We still don't know whose private jet we will take." Answered the teacher, also ignoring Hikaru, who got really annoyed, but didn't say anything.
"Then, we should take ours!" stated Kaoru cheerfully.
"If your parents approve, I don't see why not, Hitachiin-sama." nodded the teacher.
"Yay Haruhi, you got the see our awesome jet!" cried out Hikaru to her, who already recovered from his annoyance.
"Great, just great…" she whispered to herself, but tried to put on a smiling face. She didn't know what to expect, and to be honest, she really didn't like how the twins were smiling at her right now.
"Any other question?" asked the teacher.
"Sensei, I still don't have a passport…" raised her hand Haruhi.
"Oh sorry Fujioka-san, I forgot to give it to you earlier." The man said, while he got out a little package frim his bag, and handed it to the girl, who bowed her head in response, and looked inside it, to find a shiny, very new passport. It amused her, that they were able to get her a passport in less than 4 days.
"And now, if there isn't any more problems, we should start choosing the hosts."
Immediately every eye were fixed on the teacher, who became pleased with the attention at last.
"As you can see, there're three boxes, which means we have three categories. There're certain hosts who for some reason can't, or doesn't want to host a certain gender. We must respect their requests, so only girls should choose from the pink box, and only boys should choose a host from the blue box. However, from the third, the yellow box, anyone can choose from.
Also, Hitachiin-samas, please choose a profile, on wich there's a red circle. Only those said, that they can host two people at once."
Hikaru and Kaoru nodded eagerly, wanting to put their hands on the profiles at last.
"Now, don't waste any more time! Lets choose a host!"
Like the twins were waiting only for this, they immediately jumped up, and snatched the yellow box from the desk, before anyone else could get it.
They started rummaging through it, until finally they pulled out two papers from it, then they handed back the box to a very angry teacher, and finally others could see the profiles in it.
"I thought you were going to have one host." Said Haruhi to the pleased twins, while she waited for the crowd to lessen. She wasn't that eager to get a host. She was okay with nearly anyone. Still, she hoped, that she can get a host, whose home was very, very far from where the twins would stay.
"And you were absolutely right!" singsonged the devilish pair, big grins on their faces.
"This is for you!" they handed one of the papers to a puzzled Hruhi, who blinked at it, unsure what to do, but she read it nonetheless.
N.o.: 13
Name: Gyertyás Csaba
Age: 16
Sex: Male
Hometown: Szeged
At this point though, she was interrupted.
"You got an even weirder name, than ours." remarked Kaoru staring at the paper above Haruhi's shoulder.
"How the hell are you supposed to pronounce that?" asked Hikaru above her other shoulder.
"Well I definitely didn't choose this, and I won't let you choose instead of me, so put it back, I will have my own choice." said Haruhi firmly, and handed back the profile to the twins.
"But Ha-ru-hiiiiiiiiiii" they whined with identical, tear-filled, puppy-dog eyes. "We just wanted to be in the same town as you, to have fun together! Now wouldn't you want us to be with you, and have a lot of fun together?"
Haruhi struggeled, but in the end she couldn't resist the two pleading look, even if she feared the meaning of the word "fun", coming from the mouth of the Hitachiin twins.
"Alright." Was all she said, annoyed, and snatched back the profile.
"Thanks Haruhiiii" whined the twins together, and jumped onto the poor girl, to embrace her in a hug.
"Ugh, stop it you two!" cried Haruhi, when she caught her breath. „Or I may reconsider it."
The twins, still grinning widely let go of her.
"So, who did you get?" asked the girl. The twins gave her their host's profile.
N.o.: 25
Name: Dobó Zsófia Emese
Age: 15
Sex: Female
Hometown: Szeged
Requested gender: None
Able to host two students at once (use X/O): O
Inetersts:…
This time the teacher's voice interrupted her.
"Did everyone get a host? Good, now please sit back to your seats, and I will ask everyone for their host's identification number."
Haruhi handed back the girl's profile to the twins, while considering how much she will have endure in this class trip. To her dismay, it later turned out, that she was the only one, other than the twins, who got a host in the town Szeged.
Only then, it hit her, that in this case, the twins will be able to try and get her wear girly outfits, as none of their classmates will be around to notice.
After all, this excursion really seemed to be a class trip to hell. Well, at least for Haruhi.
"It's NO faiiiiiiiiiiir!"
There was till some time until the opening of the host club for the day, but Tamaki was already whining.
"It's not our fault, that we're MUCH MORE important!" the twins said to the host king, who started to sob.
"I want to choose my host too! Now, now!" he was in a tantrum, like a 6 six-year-old. "And I want to go to class trip with my darling daughter! I want to go with heeeeeer!"
Kyoya rolled his eyes, while taking notes, and Honey offered some cake to the devasted Tamaki.
"Senpai, please don't act like a child. I'm not in the same class as you, I cannot go on a class trip with you." explained to him Haruhi calmly.
"Bu-but at least we should go with the same flight, ne? Your country is in Europe too, now isn't it?" asked the host king hopefully.
"We are going with OUR private jet! You can't come!" said the twins immediately, and Tamaki began to sob again.
"But, how comes, that you can choose your hosts so early? Only four days passed since you pulled out the country." wondered Honey loudly, while in a corner the twins continued teasing a grumpy Tamaki.
"Well, apparently Hungary has an excellent database of expectional students." Commented Kyoya suddenly. "Most countries invite applications, and then go through them, and choose the eligible ones. Some even helds competitions. As far as I know, the hungarian government asked only the best schools in their country to choose their best students from the grade, who also had a language examination, from a foreign language. A much more effective way, if you ask me. That's why they were able to arrange this so quickly."
"Wow, you know a real lot Kyo-chan!" said Honey, amused.
Haruhi also wondered where could the boy get all this infomation. But she didn't had much more time to think about it, as the host club was about to start, and they still had to separate the fighting twins and Tamaki. It was hell a lot of work, but they managed, after Kyoya helped a bit…
The club was over, and Haruhi was heading home. It was a nice, shiny afternoon.
But the idyll was soon crushed by two, identical, grinning face.
"Ha-ru-hiiii!" cried the twins, and glomped her. The pull girl tried to pry them off, but to no avail. By now she was rather used to getting glomped… Not that she liked it.
"Hikaru, Kaoru, what do you want? And… ugh, let go of me for crying out loud! I can't even breath!"
The boys at least loosened their grip, but didn't let go of Haruhi.
"We just thought, that because it was a friday afternoon…" started Hikaru.
"… and such a beautiful one too!" chimed in Kaoru.
"That maybe, we should go shopping for the class trip…" continued the older twin.
"As you would probably don't have anything else to do." finished Kaoru.
The girl stared at the two grinning face.
"Well, you've been wrong, I still have to go to the supermarket." said Haruhi, though, itwasn't really true, she just wanted to escape from the devilish twins hands.
"We can go to there too." said Hikaru immediately.
"Our limo is just waiting by the corner." added Kaoru.
"But it's still two weeks until the journey!" tried the girl again.
"Doing it early saves you from a lot of srtess! You better do it earlier, than to forget something!" remarked the twins together. Haruhi started to feel very uncomfortable.
"I don't even have money with me! Just some to buy vegetables in the supermarket!"
"Don't worry, we will pay for everything!" said the twins happily.
"I don't want you to pay for me!" stated an angry Haruhi.
"But yes, you do!" retorted the twins stubbornly.
"No, I don't!" resisted the girl.
"Yes, you do!"
"No, I don't!"
"Yes, you do!"
"No, I don't, and I don't really need anything!"
"But yes, you do!"
"No, I don't!"
"Yes, you do!"
"No, I… argh! This is so childish! Leave me alone!" fumed the very annoyed Haruhi.
"Well," started Hikaru with a devilish grin.
"If you don't want to go with us shopping…" continued on Kaoru.
"…we can go to our home, to have dinner…" smiled Hikaru.
" … with OUR mom!" they finished together, grining. "And it will a perfect chance for you to try on some of mom's new designs."
Haruhi's eyes began to twitch, as she imagined the scene.
"Oi, Hikaru, you remember that new blood red coctail-dress mom's fond of?" asked the younger twin, an evil smile playing on his lips.
"You mean, THAT one? Which is sliced up to…"
"Alright, alright! I'm going with you two shopping!" cut in quickly Haruhi.
"Yay!" squealed the twins, and glomped her again.
"Rich, rich BASTARDS!" cursed silently the helpless girl as she was dragged to the limo.
Yes, this was definitely going to be a class trip to hell.
To the deepest pits.
With only two devils accompanying her.
And there was absolutely no way out.
Damn those rich bastard.
