Song: Ordinary Day
Artist: Vanessa Carlton
It was now Saturday morning- no school- no stupid Host Club- no Tamaki- no Kyoya- no crazed girls- just me, Haruhi, and a relaxing day. Sadly, that's not what Tamaki had in plan. I walked out of the apartment and knocked on Haruhi's door.
"Oh, good morning Ranka," I smiled, when he opened the door," Is Haruhi here?"
"Yes- please do come right in!" Ranka exclaimed, letting me in.
"Thank you." I stepped into the apartment, slipped off my shoes, and waited patiently. After about five minutes Haruhi emerged into the room, and we put our shoes on and opened her door. When we walked outside, we froze in unison. The whole Host Club was there- and I felt a shiver run down my spine.
"You've got to be kidding me," I moaned," It's Saturday- Haruhi's and my day off from the Club- you cant seriously be invading that.."
"Oh- that's where you are wrong," Kaoru smiled deviously.
"You never really have a day off," Hikaru continued. Sighing, I decided it was best to not fight it- and just go along with it.
"Fine. But any stupidness, and I'm out," I warned.
"What would you consider stupidness?" Tamaki asked, curiously.
"Probably anything you have in mind," I answered, and he was instantly gone. Looking around, I saw him squatting in the corner of the landing, drawing circles on the circles on the cement. Giving Haruhi the WTF look, she shrugged; so once again I sighed.
"Tamaki sempai- what do you have in mind- it might not be stupid- I have my own range of thoughts- so at times you'll have to ignore comments like that," I said, and instantly he was back in front of me with the rest of the club.
"Come with us!" Tamaki cried happily, taking Haruhi's hand and dragging her along behind him. I dared anyone try that with me- and no one did; the twins were probably to frightened to, Mori kept Hunny beside him, and Kyoya…well, I couldn't picture Kyoya doing that. I still haven't quite forgiven the little devil for finding some way to force me into this…club… of his and Tamaki's.
"You'll forgive me sooner or later," Kyoya said, making me stop in my tracks, gawking after him. How the heck did he do that? It's just like his randomness on appearing out of nowhere! Sighing and shrugging my shoulders, I jogged to catch up to the others.
--Five hrs later—
"Okay," I said, as Tamaki stood in front of me, waiting for my response," Today was…fun."
"YAY!" Tamaki cried, glomping me.
"Off." I ordered, poking him softly in his pressure point. Instantly he winced and let go; I smiled sweetly and innocently at him.
"Bye!" I smiled, walking up towards my apartment door, waving my hand nonchalantly.
"See you Monday everyone," Haruhi said, following me.
"But-"
"Monday sempai," Haruhi and I said in unison; his shoulders sagged, but he nodded nonetheless. He had ended up taking us to an amusement park, with roller coasters and what not- and it had been fun- extremely fun, but I wouldn't admit that. Nor would I admit that had been my first time ever going to a place like that.
"'Night Haruhi," I smiled as we reached our doors.
"Night Kaori," she smiled back and we went inside our respective apartments.
Monday came quicker then I planned, and I placed the sheet I had worked on all yesterday into my schoolbag. Secretly, I had been working on a song- purely piano and voice. No one- not even Hikari or Hideo new about it; I was kind of to nervous and shy to let them know or hear it. I walked with Haruhi to school- like normal, but my mind was thinking about how I could possibly practice the song. That's when it hit me- there was piano in the third music room- where the host club meets.
"Um- Haruhi," I said, and she looked over at me," I'm going to go ahead- I want to do something before school starts."
"Alright- I'll see you in first class then," Haruhi said, not asking me what it was that I was going to do- which I loved. I didn't want to lie to her- nor did I want to tell her about my song. Rushing ahead without running, I quickly made it to Ouran Academy and without drawing much attention to myself- I rushed to the third music room. Closing the doors behind me, I looked around. No one was in there- and the piano was near the back- kind of- so I should be safe. Walking up to it, I set down my bag- took out the composed music- set it on the stand on the piano and sat down. Closing my eyes and taking a deep breath, I prepared myself. My hands traveled up and softly landed on the keys. Then, with a glance at the sheet, I began.
"Just a day,
Just an ordinary day.
Just trying to get by.
Just a boy,
Just an ordinary boy.
But he was looking to the sky.
And as he asked if I would come along
I started to realize
That everyday you find
Just what he's looking for,
Like a shooting star he shines.
He said take my hand,
Live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
And as he spoke, he spoke ordinary words
Although they did not feel
For I felt what I had not felt before
You'd swear those words could heal.
And as I looked up into those eyes
His vision borrows mine.
And I know he's no stranger,
For I feel I've held him for all of time.
And he said take my hand,
Live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
In the palm of your hand.
Please come with me,
See what I see.
Touch the stars for time will not flee.
Time will not flee.
Can you see?
Just a dream, just an ordinary dream.
As I wake in bed
and the boy, that ordinary boy
or was it all in my head?
Did he ask if I would come along
it all seemed so real.
But as I looked to the door,
I saw that boy standing there with a deal.
And he said take my hand,
Live while you can,
Don't you see all your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
In the palm of your hand,
In the palm of your hand.
Just a day, just an ordinary day
just trying to get by.
Just a boy,
Just an ordinary boy.
But he was looking to the sky."
Finishing, I smiled to myself- it had been better then I imagined. Looking at my watch- I jumped. Class would be starting in two minutes! Quickly, I grabbed the piece of paper, shoved it hastily into my bag, and ran out of the room. Making it to classroom 1A seconds before the bell rang, I allowed myself to relax.
"So- why were you almost late Kaori-san?" Hikaru asked, as I took my seat beside him.
"I had something I had to do, and lost track of time," I answered, keeping a straight face.
"Right," he said slowly, looking at me blankly- I blinked at him once, and we started a staring contest.
"Alright class- attention up here!" the teacher called, and sighing in unison, Hikaru and I broke our staring contest at the same time- we turned at the same time, and gave our attention to the teacher.
