Hi again people! and sorry this chapter's late! I've been down in England so I couldn't update at all! I hope you enjoy
as always- i don't (and never will) own Ouran high School host Club.
:D
Yuki's POV!
Finally, Lunch. For the past two hours, I was harassed by Ootori and that blonde doofus friend of his. I can swear that if he hadn't of been there, Suoh would have been half way to the moon and back by now… about ten times.
"Finally free," I grumbled as I deserted my maths room for the hallway. Without thinking, I lifted one arm and stretched it, accidentally hitting someone in the face in the process. "Oh sorr-" I started- stopping once I noticed it was only Ootori. "Oh, it's you," I said and he looked at me.
"Yes, it's me," he said as the blonde idiot bounded out of the room.
"Ah Yuki my daughter, how nice to see you again!" he exclaimed and I narrowed my eyes.
"One, you saw me less than a minute ago. Two, wish I could say the same. Three, I'm not your daughter!" I yelled the last one. I'm guessing he got the message as he ran off to his emo corner and started growing mushrooms again.
"So then, are you coming up to the host club?" Kyouya asked whilst pushing his glasses up his nose.
"Meh, might as well," I said before remembering about our little talk. "And I need to talk to you mister," I said and Kyouya looked intrigued.
"About?" he asked and I turned to him.
"You know what, about Haruhi and the twins' debt," I said and he nodded.
"If you're going to try to get them out of it, it will be of no use. I have already written down what each of them is due," he said and I sighed- well plan B was worth a try.
"Actually, I was going to suggest a way for them to pay back a part of it…"
"No need," he cut me off. "We've already decided that Miss Fujioka will work in the host club as a boy. The twins will work bringing out extra sweets or drinks from the kitchen. Of course, neither will be paid jobs for them," he explained and I sighed- never mind!
"Okay, don't even listen to me," I grumbled as we approached the third floor corridor.
"What was that?" Kyouya asked and I shook my head.
"Never mind." I replied. I doubt that he would want to know that the twins, Miki, Sakura, and I are all getting part time jobs in a café which Miki's Godmother Gina owns. She was nice enough to offer us the jobs and she's decided to pay us for it too. The café isn't too big, though it is suited to both rich and non-rich folks tastes. The cakes are delicious, nobody can say otherwise-that's why we asked the twins if they had given the host club Gina's cakes.
"No really, what is it?" he asked as we approached the host club doors.
"Basically, the five of are getting work in one of our friend Gina's café in town. Just thought you would want to know," I said and he smirked.
"How interesting, we may have to pay a visit sometime," he said as we pushed open the double doors.
"I guess," I muttered and looked inside. Miki was sitting down with Sakura talking to Mori and Honey, while the twins were- well I couldn't see them, or the Hitachiins' either.
"Hey Miki, Sakura. Where are the twins?" I asked and both girls shrugged.
"Dunno," Miki answered.
"We don't know Yu-Chan. I was going to ask you," Sakura said and I turned upon hearing the door open.
"You idiot!" Akira yelled as she and Hikaru walked in- dripping water all over the floor?
"What happened to you two?" I laughed and 'Kira pouted.
"I was walking passed the pond outside and he gave ran up behind me giving me a fright. As expected, I grabbed him as I fell into the water so obviously he fell in too," she explained as Akiko and Kaoru walked in.
"Whoa, what happened here?" Kaoru asked.
"Don't ask," Hikaru grumbled. I laughed again.
"You're lucky I brought an extra set of clothing just in case," 'Kiko giggled and Akira nodded, grinning.
"Mm hmm,"
"Well go get changed then," she said and Tamaki ran in.
"My daughter!" he yelled and Akira winced before slowly walking away towards a door in the left wall of the room where Haruhi was.
"Oh yes! I need to go and see Haruhi!" he continued and I gripped onto his shoulder as he tried to run to the other room.
"Nuh uh, not a good idea idiot," Miki said and he shrugged.
"Why not? Haruhi's male, Akira's female. It's not like they'll be in the same changing cubicle!" he said and I sighed letting him go.
"Do you think we should have told him that there is only one available cubicle… and that Haru-Chan is a girl?" Honey said and we all turned upon hearing a scream from the room.
"Get out!" we heard Akira scream and Tamaki ran out of the room with a few huge lumps on his head. I ran into the room with Akiko and we noticed Haruhi and Akira sitting there staring at the wall.
"Idiot," I murmured and the two sighed.
"Seriously…" Akira said and Haruhi coughed.
"Damn him…" she said before shoving on the uniform that had been shoved in her hands. We walked out together and Haruhi smoothed down her uniform.
"Hikaru, Kaoru!" Kyouya ordered whilst snapping his fingers. The twins in question grabbed Haruhi and dragged her away leaving the twins and me standing there. I sighed again- it was becoming a bit of a habit now.
I sat down on one of the couches and pulled out a small blue notepad and a mechanical pencil before beginning to sketch. Slowly but surely, a picture emerged from the lines and by that time, all the girls plus Kyouya, Tamaki, Mori and Honey were around me. I turned to them.
"Do you know how hard it is to concentrate with all of you around me?" I asked sarcastically and they all mumbled sorry- or in Honey's case hugged me around the waist. I laughed as they dispersed and Kyouya sat across from me. He reached over the table and took the book out of my hands, before inspecting it and smirking.
"You're a very good drawer you know," he said and I looked down at my feet.
"Yeah, I have been told that," I said and he flipped through the pages.
"Where is this?" he asked turning the notepad round so I could see the picture he was talking about. The picture was of a garden filled with flowers and different plants. In the foreground, flower bushes framed the edge of the page, along with the occasional bee or butterfly. Behind that, there was a cobble path and the grass. Next to the path sat a wooden bench, with two girls sitting on it- one younger and one older. In the background, the ground sloped up and on the top of the slope were a few cherry blossom trees and a high fence leading out onto a main street. Throughout the picture, a few loose cherry blossoms were placed blowing through the wind.
"It's in a public garden in Scotland. We visited the twins' pen-pals and they took us there. Miki had taken a picture of this scene so I used the picture and drew what I saw. The only difference is that it was autumn when we went and this is set in spring," I explained and he nodded.
"I had realised," he said and turned to the next page. On the next one I had drawn a rose alone in a vase filled with a lot of water, positioned on top of a table. Also, I had shaded the picture and the background and table were dark, the rose light, and a middle shade for a small glow around the vase. "I get the feeling that this may symbolise something," Ootori said and I moved around to sit next to him.
"It does. The shadows symbolise being left alone, and singled out among a crowd. The rose represents what is being singled out and the water represents the life. Although the rose is alone, it keeps on living and believing in itself and that the others around it would turn around and accept it one day…" I trailed off. Kyouya smiled.
"Like how you felt with you father?" he and I nodded meekly. "I understand. I'm the youngest of three and I've always been working to try and make my own Father see me over my brothers," he said and I nodded- he really did understand.
"Yu-Chan can I see your pictures?" Sakura asked as she bounded over to us and Kyouya handed her the book. "Thanks!" she exclaimed before we watched her run off towards everyone else that was around a small table.
"Cake?" I asked and Kyouya shrugged before getting up and walking over to the table behind Kyouya. Maybe our life in Japan wouldn't be so bad after all.
Well there we go, chapter 5 is finished!
