Hi hi~
New chapter yay! Sorry for the wait…
I feel bad about not updating Playing Cupids or Ah, It's a Wonderful Cat Life in a while, but… no but, I feel awful! I'll get on it soon, I promise!
If I don't you PM me to get my ass off of YouTube and onto Word!
I command you!
DISCLAIMER: Honestly, if you think that I own OHSHC, UTAU or VOCALOID, then you obviously don't understand the term "Fan Fiction".
Luka POV
"I thought about it a lot last night, and it might actually be a good idea to have Teto-chan join the Host Club as manager!" Gakupo said as we were resetting up for the Thursday business session.
"And why is that?" Len and Rin asked.
"I would think it fairly obvious," Gakupo answered, "Teto is transferring into Class A, with Luka! If Luka can make female friends, then she may become more girly herself!"
"Oh, just great," I mumbled.
"This is a tremendous step in having Luka become more aware of what it is to be a fair maiden!" Gakupo finished passionately. "And it won't help at all when her only classmate friends are these unscrupulous twins," he added, glaring at said twins.
"Oh, someone's nice," They both said sarcastically.
The door creaked behind us and Teto walked in. "Hi, everybody!" she chirped, "Teto-chan, the Host Club Mascot Girl, has baked some cookies for you!"
I thought she was the manager? Mascot Girl?
"Oh! That's so ladylike!" Gakupo suddenly appeared beside her as she shot him a glare. "I am so touched, Te—"
"They're for Kiyoteru-sama, not you, Fake Prince," she sneered.
Gakupo proceeded to brood in the Emo Corner.
"I'm afraid they're a bit burnt…" Teto said, referring to her scorched cookies," But I know what you'll say, Kiyoteru-sama… 'Anything you've made has got to be delicious', right?"
Piko helped himself to a cookie and started nibbling on it. "This is a bit burnt," he commented.
"Piko, don't eat that," Kaito said quickly, "It's bad for you." Kaito quickly snatched the cookie away.
Teto shot the both of them a death glare, her twin-tails spinning in place like drills. "You take that back, you!" she roared, chasing them.
"Waaaah, Teto-chan's scary!" Piko cried.
I looked at the cookies in my hand and picked the one with the least amount of charred bits. I popped it into my mouth and commented, "It's actually not that bad. No better than anything you'd find in a store, but still…"
Rin and Len popped up next to me, smirks on their faces. Rin had spontaneously changed into the guy's uniform, and had pulled her hair into a ponytail, making it very hard to distinguish the two. "Really?" Rin asked smugly. "Can I try a bit?" she broke off a piece of cookie directly from my mouth.
Before I could react, Len walked over to my left side. "Oh, Luka," he said, "You have crumbs on your cheek." He licked my cheek.
What the hell?
Gakupo rushed out of the Emo Corner, screaming bloody murder at the grinning Kagamine Twins.
"And suddenly, the freshman trio is closer than ever before," Kiyoteru said.
"Ya know," I protested, feeling the spot where Len had licked me, "I can take it off myself if you tell me it's there." I turned to Rin, "And if you want one, Rin, you can pick one from the bag."
Gakupo looked utterly shocked as he grabbed my face. "Y-Y-Your reaction is all wrong, Luka! This is the part where the heroine should reject the Yuri coolly and move on, not let it pass by!"
"Senpai, this could be considered sexual harassment," I said flatly, annoyed.
"Sexual harassment?" he echoed. "If this is sexual harassment, then what do you call what Rin was doing?"
"Mediocre," I heard Teto mumble from a table.
"Pardon?" I asked.
"Every single one of you is mediocre!" she roared.
Gakupo turned around from his rant at the twins and everyone's attention was directed at the new manager/ mascot girl.
"Other than Kiyoteru-sama, your characters are all not good enough! All of your characters are lacking a darker side! That's what the ladies really fall for, you know?" Teto continued passionately. "With these ridiculous acts you put on, it's only a matter of time before the girls get bored of you and leave for good! Do you all intend on destroying my Kiyoteru-sama's business? As the manager, I shall set anew your characters from now on!"
You should have seen the twins' and Gakupo's faces. Sorry, but really.
"First, starting with you!" Teto pointed at Piko, who whimpered, clinging tighter to Kaito. "If you're cute and innocent inside and outside, you're no different than a baby! So from now on, you're Piko Utatane, the Ultra-Kawaii Thug!"
Piko wailed in fear.
"And Kaito-senpai, you can be his childhood friend, the Flunky," Teto added.
"The twins are now both boys!" she continued.
"Oy!" Rin protested.
"They're basketball players that close themselves off in their own little world! All they have is their mad twincest-yaoi love to support themselves!
"Luki-kun is the bullied nerd!"
Oh, don't I feel special.
"And Gakupo-san," she continued, focusing her intense gaze onto Gakupo.
"Y-Yes?" Gakupo asked nervously.
"Although everyone loves you for your looks as an idol, you have a serious inferiority complex. Gakupo Kamui, the Lonely Prince!"
Gakupo stumbled back in shock, teetering around the room for a bit.
"Ah, and Kiyoteru-sama, you're perfect, so please stay the affectionate and caring person that you are, okay?" Teto requested cutely.
"Hoo-hah?" Rin and Len called out, keeping the joke going, even interchapterly.
Suddenly the rest of the room went dark and a spotlight focused on Gakupo.
"The Lonely Prince…" he said dramatically. "It fits me perfectly!" he declared.
"That's probably the most contradictory character Teto assigned," I sighed.
The twins pulled Kiyoteru over to the side.
"Hey, Kiyoteru-senpai…" Len started.
"Please do something about this?" Rin pleaded.
"Well, the boss seems to be up for it," Kiyoteru said, pointing at Gakupo.
"Teto-kun," the Purple Idiot said dramatically, "Is a lonely pose something like this?"
Teto ran over. "My, that's beautiful, Tamaki-san! But you know, what? It would be even better in the rain!"
"Yes!" Gakupo cheered. "We need rain!"
Rin, Len and I sweatdropped.
"Well, we should give it a shot," Kiyoteru said nonchalantly. "I'm sure it'll turn out to be interesting."
I swear to god, he had an evil glint in his eye.
Machiawase wa Nijikan mae de Kokori hitomi Sore ga kota e desho (this is the only song I can list lyrics for without looking them up! This and Mozaik Role)
Um… I guess it's Teto's POV? It's the narrator of this twisted scene, how bout that?
The fan girls went wild as Len dashed across the court, dribbling like a boss (couldn't resist) under the heated lights of the gym, and shooting a slam-dunk, putting the team back in the lead. He smiled coolly and wiped the sweat off of his brow, when he looked over to see his brother, Rinta, on the ground, clutching his knee.
"Rinta!" he called out, his voice filled with worry for his brother.
"Kagamine's hurt!"
"Quick, get him to the hospital!"
"Rinta! Rinta!" Len shouted again, tears threatening to fall.
"Len, you can't! You have to get back in the game!" the coach ordered him.
"Shut up!" Len slapped back his hand. "Rinta!"
"Len…" his brother said softly, "Len, you need to calm down. You don't need to worry about my pain." Rinta put a hand on his brother's cheek. "Right now, you're not the one injured."
"I can't!" Len yelled, tears falling and grasping for his brother's hand. "It hurts! It hurts, Rinta!"
Your pain is my pain. Even if no one else in this world understands, we'll still have each other. As long as we have one another, we can live on.
The scene changes to a rainy afternoon in the courtyard. A shadow approaches the Kagamine Twins. "I'm so envious of you two," said Gakupo Kamui.
"Eh?" the twins asked.
"You two can support each other like that. There's someone there for you, always," Gakupo further elaborated.
"Kamui-senpai…" Len said.
"But you're the academy's idol, Kamui-senpai," Rinta added.
"Idol, huh?" Gakupo mumbled. He flipped his sopping wet hair out of his face and looked to the twins, his cobalt blue eyes boring into their very hearts. "If everyone can only know me by a superficial title such as 'idol', then I am better off being alone."
The grieving hearts cross each other… They pass each other… They wound each other. What are the hearts of these young (handsome) men?
Luki Megurine ran in terror through the wet forest, looking for a place to hide from his persecutor. His foot hit a tree root and he tumbled down into a puddle, stopping at a dead end at a large oak.
"You can't run anymore," a menacing voice said.
Luki swiveled around in horror, large, sky blue eyes meeting seafoam and powder blue.
"You should remember well what happens when you defy me," said Piko Utatane, the school's bad-ass heart throb.
"Stop this, Piko," his friend, Kaito Shion, said. "Every time you hurt others like this, you're only hurting yourself."
"Don't tell me what to do, Kaito. You want to be punished again?"
What kind of resolution will be waiting for them? Will it be the light of salvation… or…
Piko looked up smugly and wiped rain drops from his sexy little face. "Ya know, I really despise people who don't know their place." His smirk slowly melted away and…
"Waaaaah! I'm sorry, Lulu-chan, I would never hurt you like that!" Piko flew into the boy's arms, sobbing.
"Cut!"
Luka POV
"Cut, cut, cut!" Teto shouted through the megaphone, her drill-tails spinning threateningly. "You, follow the script already!" she yelled at Piko, who was currently sitting in my lap.
"But…" Piko sobbed.
"Hmph," Teto scoffed, turning to the camera crew. "Stop the cameras for now! We'll resume this scene later!"
"Yes, Boss!" the cameraman obeyed.
"Make the rain seem more realistic!" she roared again.
"How did changing our characters end up with us shooting a movie?" Len asked, pulling out Rin's ponytail as she wrung it out.
"But what an exaggerated filming crew," I added, wiping my hair with a towel.
"Kasane-san promptly booked that crew from Hollywood," Kiyoteru said. "Haven't you seen the director before? He did 'Early Evening, the vampire movie that was number one at the box office last year.
Damn these rich bastards!
"Luka!" I looked over my shoulder and saw Gakupo running up to me. I handed him a towel. "How was my acting?" he asked.
"It was amazing," I admitted. "I don't get how you can be so into this whole thing."
Gakupo began drying his hair. "I'm discovering a whole new side of me. It might not be such a bad idea to continue down this path."
"Really?" I asked skeptically. "I think you're fine just the way you are, Senpai."
"Y-You think so?" Gakupo stuttered, a blush forming. I nodded. "I-I see…"
Seriously though, if this guy had a dark side, he'd be even more problematic than he already is.
"Luki-kun! Can you come over here?" Teto called.
"Coming!" I answered, walking over to her position. "What's going on?"
"These two boys are going to make a guest appearance in the movie as the filler villains!" Teto said cheerfully, gesturing to the thugs next to her.
"Filler villains?" they both echoed.
"Of course, every story needs a filler villain. I'm not sure who we'll use for the real villain, but this is best I got right now. Anyway," she continued, taking a dynamic pose. "The Vocaloid High School Host Club will meet and team up against these two; who are sons of the Yakuza! It'll be a real climactic moment!"
"What do you think you're goin' on about?" one punk asked.
"Yeah, what my dad does has nothing to do with me!" the other protested.
"Wait, Teto-chan," I intervened, sensing that these guys were getting pissed.
"Now, come over here~" Teto gushed, pulling Thug 1 by the arm.
"Saying whatever you want, I'll show you!" Thug 1 pulled out of her grip, and swung his arm to hit her.
Teto flew through the air, about to hit the wall of the building.
"Watch out!" I called, placing myself between Teto and the school.
Yeah. It hurt. Not that much, but still.
Oh, shoot, my contact fell out, this is why I liked glasses…
Ugh, eyelash…
"Luka, is everything alright?" Gakupo walked around, and stopped when he saw me, tearing up from my contact lense.
Gakupo rushed at Thug 2, pushing him up against the wall. His eyes narrowed, he was unrecognizable (to a certain extent) to me. "Which one of you did this?" he asked threateningly.
"W-Wait, Kamui, it wasn't us, the Psycho-Drill Girl picked a fight!" Thug 1 defended.
"Don't you—"
"No, they're right, Gakupo-senpai," I said, standing up and wiping a few tears.
Gakupo immediately let go of Thug 2 and rushed to my side. He cupped my cheek and looked into my eyes. I fought the blush. "Luka… does it hurt?" he asked.
"Y-Yeah…" I answered. "I hate it when my contact lens falls out," I held out the contact.
"…Your contact?" Gakupo echoed.
"Yeah, it got unsettled during the hubbub," I answered with a smile.
Gakupo started snickering a little, which gradually turned into a laugh.
He was laughing a lot.
I didn't know if I should be offended or not.
"Cameraman! Did you get that footage!" Teto yelled at the employee.
"Yes, boss!" he answered with a thumbs-up.
"Except for the contact lens, that was the ideal final scene! Now all we need is for Kiyoteru-sama to do some Moe commentary and—"
~CRASH~
I turned to see Kiyoteru holding a rock to a shattered camera.
"No! My camera!" the cameraman wailed.
"K-Kiyoteru-sama?" Teto asked timidly. "Why did you—"
Kiyoteru dropped the rock. "My apologies, but there cannot be any record of our club members engaging in violence. I think you've caused enough trouble around here, Teto-san. Please stop being such a pest."
"That's our Kiyoteru-senpai!" Rin and Len shouted, big grins on their faces.
"A pest…?" Teto repeated, tears running down her face. "But… But you're supposed to tell me not to worry! You're supposed to pat me on the head and tell me everything's gonna be okay! Why are you so different now, Kiyoteru?"
Gakupo placed a hand on Teto's shoulder. "Because that's not the real Kiyoteru."
Teto turned around in shock before realizing what he meant. Her eyes widened and she sat down in a huddle, sobbing.
"Does it really matter?" I asked, trying to comfort her. "Who cares if Kiyoteru-senpai was a little different than you expected him to be. Take a good look at the person inside and get to know him little by little. That's what makes it fun, right?" I finished with a smile.
Teto looked up from the ground, nodded, and wiped her tears.
Ah mawatte mawatte mawatte uku noda a iki ga iki ga domaru no (keep in mind these might be wrong. Aw, hell, the song is Karakuri Pierrot. Listen to it. 40mP is awesome.)
"Luki-kun! I bought the movie today!" Miku chirped.
"I bought it too!" SeeU Dahi, a Gakupo fan, added.
"And so did I!" Lily squealed.
Everyone blinked, processing the information. "You did?" asked Gakupo.
"That scene in the rain was just phenomenal!" Miku cooed.
"I found the Lonely Prince refreshing," Gumi added from my table.
"And the loving relationship between Len and Rin(ta) was too sweet!" Neru squealed.
"I wanna see Piko-chu as a thug again~" gushed Lapis Aoki, a Piko fan (duh).
"I couldn't get enough of Luki's pitiful expressions, though!" Lily commented.
"Kiyoteru…" Gakupo said expectantly.
"I may have broken the camera lens, but the footage remained intact. Edit out the violence scene, and this movie has definitely made the impact I said I was looking for in the last chapter."
He pushed up his glasses and smiled (evilly?), "I did say this would be interesting, didn't I?"
Before you all comment, yes, Aoki Lapis is the Japanese order, the western order of her name is Lapis Aoki. Her first name is Lapis. Look it up on the Vocaloid Wiki, I don't like it any more than you do.
Seriously, it would be better the other way around, but I like to be correct.
OH MAH GAWD THE BALL'S TOMORROW YOU GUYS!
TAKE MY POLL ON WHO WOULD MAKE THE BEST SASSY GAY FRIEND OUT OF ALL THE VOCALOIDS! Sadly, Gakupo and Piko-chu are winning, and Kaito has no votes. He has the scarf down, guys, come on!
Anyway, QoTC:
