This is the second chapter of my The Not so Jerky Jerk. I hope you like it.
And thank you for all the reviews and alerts.
Enjoy. XD
I stared at my new room's ceiling while thinking about the things that happened awhile ago and I still can't believe what the two men in black told me when I asked them about the family I will live with. (I only remembered to ask them after those four guys entered the mansion since I was pretty much occupied with the sceneries on our way here.) I came here knowing nothing about Tamaki Suoh except that my grandfather worked for him and he is rich but, boy, never in my wildest dreams did I think he's this filthy rich. For the information of everyone, Tamahi Suoh is the CEO of the world's biggest conglomerate, the Suoh Group of Corporations. If I am stupid because I thought the rest of world is filled with grasslands, then, I am hopeless for not noticing that the man is a Suoh. Tamaki Suoh. Suoh Group of Corporations. Get it? I certainly deserve the dumb folded looks those two men gave me.
According to them, Tamaki Suoh, inherited SG (Suoh Group) after graduating from college and because of his genius he made the then Asia's no. 1 conglomerate to the world's biggest. They also added that despite his amazing brains, he acts stupid and is often reprimanded by his wife and son.
They continued on their tales about the man's feats, but, I was too surprised to remember, or even hear, anything.
After regaining my composure, I asked them about those four guys and their cars. After all, it's not every day that you see such cool cars, oh, let me correct myself, I didn't even know such cool cars are manufactured. Typical me.
And here is what they told me.
Kokoroyomi and Kitsuneme are the only sons of Hikaru Hitachin, a world-renowned fashion designer. The Hitachins rank 15th in Forbes List of the World's Richest Families. Koko came in a red McLaren F1. In 1994, it was the fastest and most expensive car. Even though it was built 15 years ago, it has an unbelievable top speed of 240 mph and reaching 60 mph in 3.2 seconds. Even as of today, the McLaren F1 is still top on the list and it outperformed many other supercars. While Kitsu's is a blue Koenigsigg Agera. It can burn 0-60 in 2.8 seconds, reaching a maximum speed of 235 mph. It has the parts to reach 270 mph, but the supercar is electronically capped at 235 mph. Their cars are sold at 80 million yen and 130 million yen, respectively.
Ruka Nogi Haninozuka, on the other hand, is from a family of martial artists. His house is filled with trophies, medals, plaques, certificates, etc. of martial arts competitions. Aside from owning the biggest martial arts school in the world, the Haninozukas also own the most advanced medical center in Asia, the only reason the hospital is not ranked the best in the world is because of Cambridge Hospital. At the 9th position they rank higher than the Hitachins. Ruka's car is a white Lamborghini Reventon. It is the most powerful and the most expensive Lamborghini ever built. It takes 3.3 seconds to reach 60 mph and it has a top speed of 211 mph. Its rarity (limited to 20) and slick design are the reasons why it is so expensive and costly to own. It is sold at 130 million yen.
And last, but definitely not the least, is the heir of the SG, Natsume Hyuuga Suoh. Like his father and mother he is an acclaimed genius. A bachelor's magazine defines him: "With his messy raven hair, crimson eyes, God-like body and money to boot; he is number one in the World's Most Sought After Bachelor". I don't really understand why he's a bachelor, because from what I've heard he is only two years older than me, which makes him eighteen years old. But if you think about his 'business achievements', might as well, consider it reasonable. He came in a black and red Buggatti Veyron Super Sports. This is by far the most expensive street legal car available on the market today. It is the fastest accelerating car reaching 0-60 in 2.5 seconds and with a top speed of 267mph. It's sold at 195 million yen. The Suohs stand proudly at 4th position in Forbes' list.
Those four, practically grew up together, since their parents are bestfriends. They are seniors at Ouran High School Host Club, a school owned by SG and which only caters to the elite. Those cars. Those wealth. Those looks. I bet those four can get any girl they want.
Typical rich guys.
Before I can continue my thoughts, a blonde man came bursting from the door.
"Mikan-chan. I'm so glad you arrived safely. I wanted to pick you up from your hometown, but, my secretary won't let me." The man said while trying to hug me.
"Ano….."
"Tamaki-sempai, she looks confused. Maybe you should introduce yourself first." A lady with long brown hair wearing a blue office suit instructed while heading towards the two us.
". I missed you. I came to pick you at your office but you weren't there," The man, who I guessed is Tamaki Suoh, released me from his grasp, and went to cuddle with his wife. He was pouting, which looked really silly.
"Now. Now. Tamaki-sempai. I missed you too. I just went with Hikaru to help him pick an anniversary gift for his wife." The woman was trying to free herself from his husband's strangling hug.
Her husband continued hugging her, oblivious to her actions. Knowing her attempts were futile, she let his husband do as he wished and looked at me.
"You must be Mikan, right? I'm Haruhi Suoh and I'm sorry if my husband nearly strangled you awhile ago, believe it or not, that's just his way of showing his love." She smiled at me and, boy, she is gorgeous. I'm not lesbian, or anything, but she really looks pretty, especially the way how her eyes correspond to her actions. I can't believe she's already a mom, she appears young.
"It's okay." I said while returning her smile.
She returned her gaze at her husband who was still hugging her happily. "Tamaki-sempai, maybe you should stop hugging me and introduce yourself to Mikan-chan."
The man let go of his wife, directed his attention to me and kissed my hand. His wife rolled her eyes at this.
"Good afternoon, my lady. I am Tamaki Suoh. It is my honor to be your adopted father."
"Wait. What?" I asked with confusion obvious in my voice.
"Didn't I tell in the letter?" The man also looked confused. I showed him his letter and the confusion in his face was replaced with an 'Oh, crap! Haruhi's gonna get mad when she sees this' look. His wife tried to sneak a look at the letter, but, the blonde, whose purple colored look nervous, tried to hide it.
His wife eyed him suspiciously, while he gave off a nervous laugh.
"Excuse me, but, what's with the adoption. I didn't hear anything about it. I thought I'll only live here." I asked trying to break the tension in the room.
His wife shrugged and gave a knowing look. "I guess this idiot here forgot to tell you because he can't help but talk about himself." If only looks could kill, Tamaki Suoh, should be lying dead, right now, because of the eye daggers his wife was sending him. "Since you are still an underage, we filled for an adoption paper a week ago, right after we read your grandpa's letter. It was approved yesterday."
"Oh. Okay." I said while digesting the information.
"Mikan-chan, so, how do you like your room? It's wonderful isn't it? Well, no wonder, I chose most of the designs here." The man, who has already forgotten the contents of the letter, asked before twirling around the room in a fancy manner. I never thought one could look silly and fancy at the same time.
I've already inspected the room awhile ago. But for the sake of I dunno what, I looked around it again, and my initial thoughts remain. This room is something ordinary for a typical princess. Normal for a princess? Get it? Meaning it's out of the world for a country bumpkin like me.
A queen sized bed covered with pink sheets with a large Panther Doll in the middle lies in center of the room. Two side tables, one on each side, hold two pink lampshades. Oh did I mention, that pink laptop is also on the bed? On my right is a walk-in closet, seriously a walk in closet, I only have one luggage, for goodness' sake. The room has its own living room, meaning, it has a sala set, a 62' inch LED Flat Screen television, a Dvd player, and wait what is that? Is that a PS3? Seriously! The room also has its own bathroom, which is even bigger than my entire house in the countryside. A split type Carrier airconditioner is mounted to the wall opposite my bed. A fridge is also found in the room. The wall is painted light pink and a cute painting is hung above my bed.
"It's beautiful, but, maybe it's too expensive for. . . . . ."
"Of course it's too expensive for a beggar like you." The same raven haired man I saw awhile ago said while leaning on the room's doorframe. What a jerk!
"Natsume! What are you saying?" Her mom went towards him, while his dad stopped his twirling before following his wife.
"Take back what you said." She instructed.
"But, mom. Why are we taking in somebody like her?" The crimson eyed lad said, trying to reason out with his mother.
"My Natsume has become such a bad boy." His father tried to him hug but to the young Suoh quickly avoided his father's affection.
"Haruhi! Haruhi! Did you see that? My son avoided me." The blonde is hugging his wife with tears falling from his beautiful eyes.
"Oh come on, dad!" Natsume said sarcastically, which only made his father wail louder. "Haruhi! Haruhi! Haruhi! My son is being sarcastic with me!"
The woman ignored his husband. "Natsume, I want you to be nice to her. After all, his grandfather was practically your father's dad."
"Tsk!" "Okay, mom" I guess he doesn't want his mom mad. "And dad, stop crying already. I'm sorry, okay?" He said before leaving. Maybe he's that bad, after all, no jerk says sorry. "But, she's ugly and she isn't even sexy!" Crap! Did I just say he's not such a jerk? If I did, then forget it because Natsume Hyuuga is a total jerk.
I'm really sorry if there aren't much NatsumeXMikan moments here. I'm not a fan of fast-paced stories and since this is only the second chapter I limited their scenes. I'm really sorry if I disappointed, but, expect more scenes of them in the next chapter.
Thank you very much for reading.
Comments and suggestions are appreciated.
By the way, check out my other story, it's entitled 'Deadly Encounter Equals Love'. It's still incomplete, in fact, it only has two chapters. I started writing it six months ago, but, because of school I became too busy to write. Now that I have time on my hands, unfortunately, all of my ideas before were forgotten. I really need some help with it. Thanks.
