Chapter 1- Loud:

Third Person:
Mia hesitantly made her way through the doors to try and find the office. This place is so big…how do they get around here so easily? She saw a lot of people staring at her and whispering- which made me more embarrassed than she already was. Please…let me just fade into the background… Though she knew no matter how much I wished people would ignore her- it never happened. She was always too tall for someone her age, too matured. Too something. She never fit in not matter where she went.

"Is that the new student," Haruhi asked.
"Indeed," Kyoya said pushing up his glasses as they all watched her enter through the large doors, "Mia Carter, here on a scholarship. Age fourteen, rather young for a first year I suppose. Though she incredibly smart for someone her age."
"Wow," the twins whistled, "is she smarter than our Haruhi?"
"Perhaps," Kyoya answered honestly, "though no one might notice as she is said to be rather shy- preferring the background rather than the spotlight."
The twins raised an eyebrow. Haruhi's sweat dropped, thanks for the ego boost Kyoya-senpai. She looked back out the window at the new student. She is a bit taller than me, Haruhi mused. The new student has long blonde hair that was a bit curly and Haruhi could see her big round golden eyes from her spot at the window. The new student didn't wear the uniform, instead she had on regular jeans and a dark blue turtle-neck with long sleeves. She doesn't look fourteen, Haruhi thought as her face got a hint of jealousy at the matured fourteen-year-old.

Mia:

I could feel everyone's eyes on me and I hated it. I felt my face get hot as I went into the office. The secretary smiled at me,
"Good morning," she said cheerfully.
"…I'm the new student," I said softly.
"I can see that dear," she winked, "here's your schedule."
I took the schedule and got a confused look. The secretary chuckled slightly,

"You're classes are a bit mixed up since you're also in advanced classes…have fun dear…and be careful."
I blushed and quickly left. I looked at her schedule, class 1-D, class 1-A…I think that's alright. Though it will get a bit confusing with so many people. I started to look around for my first class.

When I got to my first class, 1-D. I was a bit embarrassed. Everyone there was guys, making me the only girl and the youngest. I bowed to the sensei and he nodded.

"Please introduce yourself."

My face got hot and I was glad my bangs hid most of it. I looked at him horrified. He sighed,
"This is Mia Carter, transferred from America."

I bowed slightly to the class and then headed to the only empty seat- which was in the back next to a redheaded guy that looked to be about one or two years older than I was. He had a sort of mean face, but not really. I mean, looking around every guy there seemed to look very tough- making me stand out even more….great.

I blew the bangs out of my face in annoyance and the guy next to me seemed a bit flustered. He then glared at me. I blushed, but I continued my gaze at him- I wasn't glaring, but I wasn't going to back down either.

"I'm Kasanoda, Ritsu," he finally whispered- now I have a name.

"Carter Mia," I softly replied, blushing.

He smiled slightly with a blush of his own.

After that class, I headed towards 1-A.

"I'll see you later Kasanoda-senpai," I whispered as I left. He nodded.

Now it took my ten minutes to find my class, so I was a bit late, but at least I found it. I bowed to the sensei. He nodded,

"You're late."

I blushed and he sighed,
"But you are new- don't let it happen again."

I nodded and quickly took an empty seat- ignoring the whispers.

"How come she comes in late and doesn't get detention," these twins were whispering but a short-haired brunette smacked them upside the head,

"Give her a break," she harshly whispered, "she is new here."

I blushed underneath my hair. I really wish I could just fade away.

"She looks so shy," one of the twins said as he turned around and poked my side. I laid my head on the desk and buried myself under my hair.

"She needs to open up more," the other said.

"Stop bothering her," the brunette snapped. I peaked from my make-shift hiding spot and saw the twins shrug and bug the person in front of them. The brunette turned to me. He looks a bit…girly. He smiled,
"I'm Fujioka Haruhi."
"Carter Mia," I greeted softly, while blushing. Haruhi chuckled,
"Sorry about them," he nodded to the twins. The twins looked to each other, at me, and at Haruhi, and then smirked.
"Why, if you want to hang out with Haruhi," they said with a devilish smile, "come to Music Room Number Three after school."
"Wait," Haruhi protested but I couldn't hear her over the sound of the bell ringing.
Did we really talk the whole time? Well, they talked. I tried to ignore them.

After school, I ran into Ritsu again- literally. I had a red face,

"I'm sorry," I kept muttering. He smiled and ruffled my hair,

"It's okay…honestly, you have to be the only person here not scared of me."
"You're not scary," I pointed out shyly, "a bit tough and rough though."

He smiled slightly and then blushed. I blushed as well and then continued on to Music Room Three- only to be greeted by bright lights and flower petals. Really bright…handsome men…handsome men? I blinked rapidly and saw that I wasn't imagining the handsome guys. One was Haruhi, two were the twins, one was a small blonde that was a lot shorter than everyone else, one was a tall black haired guy, one was a taller blonde, and one had black hair and looked…creepy.

"Welcome!"
"Ah," the blonde one said as he kissed my hand, "I see we have a new customer."

I blushed and jerked my hand away.

"Where…am I," I asked quietly.

"You are at the Ouran High School Host Club," the black haired one that gave me a bit of a creepy feeling said.
"Who would you like to host you," the blonde one asked as he bowed.

"Wah?"
"Which type would like to host you," the blonde pondered, "I'm Tamaki, the 'Princely Type,' Haruhi the 'Natural type', the twins 'the devilish types,' Mori the 'Silent type', Kyoya the 'cool type,' and Hunny, the boy-lolita."

"Mori," I answered quietly.

He raised an eyebrow and I blushed furiously.

"Why did you choose Mori-kun," Hunny asked cutely.

"…he's the quietest," I answered softly.

Hunny giggled.

"You're kind of like him- so quiet! But you're so shy! Ohh. Mia-chan you are just so cute!"

He hugged me tightly and I blushed at the contact and Mori smiled faintly- ruffling my hair.

When I got back to the orphanage, Tsuki-sensei greeted me.
"How was your first day," she asked cheerfully.

I hung my head low in thought- my hair falling front of my face,

"Loud."
