The first day had passed by with ease and suprisingly fast. Tora's worries of being isolated from the rest were discarded and she had spent most of the day giggling with Haruhi. The longer she joked and giggled with Haruhi, Tora felt the same feeling that something was different about Haruhi. The odd femininity, the high-pitched voice, were just the few of many observations that Tora had made that made Haruhi seem odd. It wasn't until close to lunch that Tora finally understood what the nagging difference was.
Haruhi was a girl.
At first Tora was shocked. It was hard to understand why she wore the male's uniform, but then again who was Tora to judge when she couldn't even afford a uniform. After getting over the shock and disbelief, Tora soon felt ashamed.. She was a girl and wasn't able to see that Haruhi wasn't a guy. At least she wasn't the only one, almost half of the school was fooled into thinking that she was indeed a guy.
Haruhi has asked if her being a girl would be a problem, which Tora had to laugh at. Her being a girl being a problem? Hardly. As long as she still thought of Tora as a friend, then Tora was satisified with whatever she gender she choose to protray. It had been a fairly long time since Tora had a friend. Her life was a complete mess and frankly she scared people. She was told countless times that her calm personality un-nerved people. Tora never understood why and soon gave up trying to understand. She figured that if no one would be-friend her or even acknowledge that she existed then she was better off alone. And that was what she soon became. Alone
"Tora!" Haruhi stood next to Tora and was waving her hand in front of her face, trying to catch her attention. Tora shook her head slightly, pulling herself out of her thoughts.
"Yeah?" Tora smiled at Haruhi. They were near the entrance of the school, the crowds of students swarming into the main area. The two were closer to the wall so that they weren't trampled in the large herd of students.
"I won't be able to walk out with you. I have a meeting that I need to go to." Haruhi smiled sympathetically. The two had planned on walking to a near-by ice cream shop, a commoner shop as titled by the wealthy students. The two didn't care, they were commoner's and one wasn't richer then the other.
Tora nodded in understanding and patted Haruhi's shoulder. "Don't worry. I need some extra couple of hours to catch up. I got a feeling that Sensei isn't exactly pleased with me being in his class."
Haruhi chuckled and waved good-bye before she slid through the crowd. Tora still stood in the same spot as she thought over the places that she could study silently. Throughout the day, Haruhi had shown her around the school to help her have more success in finding the right rooms. Almost every room that they passed or had gone into, students were chatting away and casually sipping their tea. The same went for the library, where Tora thought studying was suppose to occur. Silence was needed and Tora was positive that all the different aroma's and giggling would catch her attention and her stomach's.
After spending a good couple of minutes on debating on where to be in, Tora finally decided to walk around until something caught her attention, or if she didn't hear any giggling or chatter behind the doors. Maneuvering through the crowd, Tora looked around the spacious school. It was still hard to take in that she was actually attending an elite school. Ouran High school was well-known around Japan and it was a complete miracle that Tora was actually accepted. She was sure that her being poor and having no status in society would take a huge toll in the presidents decision. It had been Tora's dream of going to school that would give her a challenge. Honestly, her other school's were pathetic and Tora was surprised that she even learned anything from the run-down schools. Not only was it her dream, but this was a chance to show her Mother and Father that she wouldn't take the easy route in life. She needed to show them that she was strong and she needed them to be proud. Tora knew that they were looking down from heaven.
Tora smiled softly to herself as she thought of her parents. A day didn't go by that she wished that they weren't gone. Life seemed duller without them, the once bright colors of life were beginning to fade and Tora was beginning to realize that she was becoming a shadow. Something that she didn't want her parents to see her become. She needed to stay bright and positive, to show everyone that her life may be a struggle but that doesn't mean that she has to stop living. It would just have to take time for Tora to start to believe that.
It was while Tora was down a hall that a sign above a door caught her attention. It was near two cases of stairs and seemed to be the only room down the long hallway. Looking around, Tora saw that no one was around. Listening for a bit, Tora heard no laughter or the clatter of tea cups. Tora smiled in triumph of finally finding a quiet place, looking up at the sign Tora saw that it was a music room.
"Perfect! I can get some practice in."
Re-arranging her bag so that her strap didn't dig into her skin, Tora twisted the gold knob. The minute the door opened a soft breeze blew through her short hair. Petals of roses brushed against her skin and caught in her light hair. Tora's mouth was agape as she caught the sight before. A long, fancy couch was in the middle of the room with chairs spread around it. The room practically screamed rich with it's sparkling white floor and smooth wood tables. But it wasn't the nice furniture and blinding floor, it was the five handsome men that were seated on the couch.
Tora was in shock and could only make a gurgle noise, she only did make a clear noise when a stray rose petal blew into her mouth. Bending over, Tora began to cough and hack, trying to removed the wet object from her mouth.
Finally getting the wet petal out of her mouth, Tora sheepishly looked at the group in front of her. Her cheeks were burning red with embarrassment and she smiled sheepishly when she saw the raised eyebrows and shocked expressions.
The air held an awkward feel and Tora stood still as she tried to think of what to do. She had planned on coming here to study in peace but that proved to be impossible with floating petals that held death sentences and five handsome guys-
Tora's attention snapped back when a simple sentence escaped the beautiful blonde's lips, his pale skin glistened and his eyes twinkled as he leaned forward to look at her better. His face was bright as his smile crinkled the corner of his eyes. He was beyond beautiful, his looks almost made Tora gag with shock. How could one be so beautiful?
Tora shook her head lightly, trying to get rid of the awe and tried to process the words that were coming out of his mouth. Eyes growing wide with curiosity and shock, Tora gaped at the five beautiful creatures.
"H-Host club?"
So here's my second chapter. I hope that everyone likes it. I went back to my first one and changed the fact that Tora was an honors student. Instead she was accepted into the Ouran High School on a scholarship for her musical ability. Explains why she went into the Music Room. I was planning on introducing the Host club in this chapter, but that will happen in the next. Please leave a review, I would highly appreciate it!
