Hey guys! Don't really have much to say, so here's chapter 1! Enjoy!
Tamaki arrived at Music Room Three. "Tama-chan!" Honey exclaimed. He dashed over to Tamaki and gave him a hug. Tamaki smiled, "Hi Honey."
Honey let go of him and held Usa-chan against himself. "Who was that girl I saw you with earlier?" he asked smirking.
"That was Hikari Ichinose; she's in my class," Tamaki replied. He didn't know that anyone else was around. Had there been anyone else?
"What did you talk about?"
"Well, we talked and now... I"m taking her to dinner tomorrow night."
Honey faked a cheesy smile, "Oh I see, so are you dating her then?" Honey didn't want to make a big deal of it, but he didn't like hearing this.
Tamaki thought about this. She confessed her love to him and he asked her to dinner. What did that mean? He didn't really know her all that well. He didn't clearly think it all through at the time. "I don't know to be honest," he replied.
"Oh... Well good luck then I guess!"
"Thanks Honey."
Haruhi now entered the room. "Sorry I'm late!" she exclaimed.
"It's alright Haru-chan! Tama-chan was late too!" Honey exclaimed hugging her like he hugged Tamaki earlier.
"Oh okay. That's unusual for the 'president' of all people to be late," Haruhi said teasingly.
"Hey why the air quotes around president?!" Tamaki asked irritated.
"Well, your vice president does more work than you do," Hikaru said joining the conversation.
Haruhi nodded. "Yes, my point exactly."
Tamaki sighed. Then Kyoya, Kaoru and Mori walked over.
"Are we ready to start the meeting? We need to plan for the winter formal that's in a few weeks," Kyoya said with hidden irritation in his voice.
Tamaki zoned out not hearing what Kyoya said. He was thinking about Hikari. Sure he was the biggest flirt of all the hosts, but he had never had a crush on anyone. Or at least that he could think of. He didn't think he had one currently. Would he develop one?
"Tamaki?" Haruhi said. 'He seems deep in thought... That's strange,' she thought.
He quickly popped back to reality. "Huh?"
After an awkward silence, the club gathered and began their meeting. Haruhi wondered what was making Tamaki act this way; he was physically there, but it seemed that his mind was somewhere else. She decided to push the thought aside and ignore it.
Later after the meeting and after all the guests went home, Haruhi walked down the hall in a hurry to get home and study.
"Haruhi! Wait up!" Tamaki yelled after her breaking the silence of the empty hall.
Haruhi turned around. "Senpai?"
Tamaki stopped when he caught up with her.
"What's up senpai?" Haruhi asked.
"I need to ask you something," he said catching his breath. "Have you ever had a crush on anyone?"
Haruhi froze. What was this sudden question for? She didn't know what to say or how to react.
Tamaki waited for an answer. He realized that she seemed uneasy. "Are you alright?" he asked worriedly.
"I-I... No I haven't, not that I can remember anyway. Why do you ask?"
"Oh I see... Well today a girl confessed her love to me. Her name is Hikari Ichinose. I don't know her all that well, but I know that she is a good person. She doesn't have any friends, but she's very smart. I didn't tell her directly that I like her back, because to be honest, I don't know if I do. There's something inside me that is holding me back, I don't know what it is though... But I did offer to take her to dinner tomorrow. You're smart Haruhi, what should I do?"
Haruhi didn't say anything right away. Why was he telling her this? What idd she know about this kind of thing. "I don't know, why ask me of all people?"
"I don't know why, I just trust you very much."
Haruhi suddenly felt her heart pounding. 'What is going on? I don't feel right...' Then she said, "Well, maybe try getting to know her. Talk about things you like and ask her about her interests and see if you have anything in common."
Tamaki nodded, "Thank you Haruhi," he pulled her into a hug.
"No problem... Um I don't really feel very good so I think I'll head home. I need to study anyway," she replied. "See you tomorrow." Haruhi ran, her footsteps echoed through the hall. Tamaki's feet stayed planted where they were. What was wrong with Haruhi?
Kyoya was listening. 'I think she is starting to figure it out..' he thought.
When Haruhi arrived home, she noticed her dad wasn't home. She went into her room and lay on her bed with her history book in her hands, but she wasn't reading it. Why did she suddenly feel sick when she was with Tamaki earlier? Her heart was pounding, and although she felt hungry before, her stomach was now stuffed as if she ate a bit plate of food. What was it? Haruhi didn't understand it at all. Maybe it was just a coincidence. She closed her book, got ready for bed and decided to go to sleep early. Before she fell asleep she wondered, 'What's going on?'
End of chapter 2! So what do you guys think? Am I doing okay at keeping the characters prettymuch in character? Please let me know what you think by reviewing! :) Arigato!
