Chapter 15: Enter Host Club

All the while Tamaki and Haruhi were fritting about in the garden with the twins and Mori on their tails, Kyoya and Hunny were back in the springs actually enjoying what this whole field trip was for in the first place. "What do you think is happening with them right now, Hunny-senpai?" Kyoya asked as he was soaking in the springs. He really didn't care much for Hunny's opinion. But it was boring just sitting in the springs. Besides, if he was always forced to state his thoughts, he would have to force things out of other more often, just for fun.

Hunny looked up at the sky for quite awhile before answering. While he was still looking up at the blue sky, he said, "I'm not really sure..." Hunny sighed and then gazed at the Shadow King. "I think we better go find out. It's better than just sitting here and guessing." Hunny stood up and made his way for the locker room, with Kyoya following him from behind.

As quickly as he could, Hunny changed back into his clothes and then waited for Kyoya to finish up. As soon as he got himself re-dressed, him & Hunny left the locker room in search for Haruhi & Tamaki. Where would they be...? he thought to himself as they wandered around the hotel for a couple minutes. As they began to walk past the ballroom, Hunny stopped and noticed that the back doors leading to the garden were open. It wouldn't hurt to look.

Hunny looked up at Kyoya and said, "Let's try the garden, Kyo-chan! But we have to be sneaky so they don't see us! Got it?" With that, Hunny dashed over to the garden's entrance, and peaked inside from the side, not wanting to put himself out in the open. Odds were that Tamaki & Haurhi were in fact wandering around in the garden together. Not only that, Hunny saw the twins hiding behind some bushes and Mori behind a tree.

Hunny kept an eye on Tamaki & Haruhi until he was sure that Kyoya and he wouldn't be seen. When he was 100% positive, Hunny dashed over to the bushes that Hikaru & Kaoru were hiding behind while Kyoya hid behind the tree with Mori. Hunny gently poked Kaoru, who was closest to him, on the shoulder and whispered, "Has anything happened between them?"

Hikaru and Kaoru glanced over to Hunny, but they really weren't that surprised that him and Kyoya had decided to come spy as well. The twins smirked. "Well, not really." They said in unison.

"Tamaki almost confessed, but he chickened out." Kaoru explained.

Hunny pouted his lip in disappointment. Of course Tamaki had to chicken ou, He thought. However, he did try to confess, so that was something. From the looks of things though, Tamaki and Haruhi still needed some help. Just a little push is all either of them needed, or so it seemed.

"Alright, looking around the garden doesn't sound too bad," Haruhi said to Tamaki with a nod. She took a bite out of her own peach and followed after Tamaki. They randomly walked through the garden, being sure to reach every area they possibly could. Normally, Haruhi didn't care for flowers too much, but Tamaki seemed to be having a good time. In Haruhi's mind, if Tamaki was happy, so was she.

After about another half hour or so, Haruhi & Tamaki had gone through the entire garden, yet again. Glancing over at the ballroom's entrance, Haruhi sighed. She wondered if they should get going soon, or at least go somewhere else. Haruhi gazed up at Tamaki and said calmly, "Well, do you think we should start heading back yet, or do you want to walk around the hotel some?" Haruhi was leaning more towards the second option, but she thought that they should make it back to the rooms before the others. But they didn't want to be seen walking around like this by the rest of the Host Club. Hikaru & Kaoru probably wouldn't let them, mainly Tamaki, live it down.

Tamaki looked at his watch as Haruhi asked about heading back in yet. 5:07 he thought as he contemplated about when the others would get back. "If you don't mind walking around some more, we could do that." Tamaki suggested as he threw away the pit of his peach and then walked with Haruhi towards the exit. On their way back Tamaki kept pointing out flowers hat he found to be exceptionally beautiful or interesting.

Hunny looked out from behind the bush just enough so he could see Tamaki & Haruhi. It wasn't a surprise to see them just walking around together, not really doing much of anything else. They pointed out a flower from time to time, but nothing else really.

Hunny went back behind the bush and glanced over at Mori and Kyoya. He waved for them to come over by them. When they did and crouched down as best as they could, Hunny held his finger up to his mouth and shushed them quietly, just so they know to be quiet (even though they were talking).

Quietly, Hunny said to them, "Okay! Since Tama-chan chickened out, that proves that he still needs a little push, and I'm sure Haru-chan does as well. So what if we help them out a little, by maybe pushing Haru-chan into Tama-chan by "accident", or maybe tripping them slightly so they could catch one another--Haru-chan would probably be that one that's tripped... Or we could even disguise ourselves!"

Hunny was getting excited, meaning his voice was rising. He took a deep breath, and then continued quietly again, "But you know, small stuff like that. We would have to stay out of sight, but I think the little things like that might do something... Any comments, or ideas of other little things we could do?" In Hunny's mind, this idea was sure to work in some way or another.

The twins glanced at each other, grins growing on their mischievous faces. This was going to be fun. "I think you pretty much covered everything." They spoke together. In their minds they were already formulating disguises, trying to decide the best way to look so that Haruhi and Tamaki wouldn't be able to recognize them. Tamaki would probably be easy to fool, but Haruhi wasn't as readily distractible as their king. "Anything to add, Mori?" They asked, looking at the usually silent teen.

Mori thought about the plan for a few moments before saying, "Well if you want to use disguises, why don't you four go upstairs and ransack you wardrobes for clothes to use? And make sure you grab a few hats." the last thing they wanted was Tamaki and Haruhi recognizing any of them and surely their hair might give them away. "I'll keep an eye on them from here and see what I can do to make them fall for each other." Mori said giving a mocking emphasis on the word "fall."

"We're on it!" Hikaru and Kaoru exclaimed (quietly). Not bothering to see if the others were following, they crawled behind the bushes until they reached a good enough distance away, and then began sprinting while Hunny and Kyoya simply walked away stealthily.

Once the four of them left, Mori observed the area to see what he could do to possibly get Haruhi to fall into Tamaki or something of the like. Ahead of the couple's path, Mori saw a decent sized stick lying by a tree and a bush off to the side of the road and hatched an idea. Stealthily as possible, without Tamaki and Haruhi looking, Mori sneaked from his current tree to the next tree and positioned himself to watch and Tamaki and Haruhi pass by through the bush. Mori kept a hand on the stick and waited for them to walk by.

Once he saw their legs walk by the bush, he waited for Tamaki's legs to pass first and then when Haruhi's came by, Mori raised the stick up just slightly and tripped Haruhi.

As Tamaki and Haruhi walked on, Tamaki turned around to check on Haruhi only to see her in mid fall. Tamaki reacted quickly and stepped in front of her and caught her in his arms. "Haruhi!" he said in a distressed voice as she fell into his chest. Tamaki blushed a little as he looked down at Haruhi in his arms and then stood her up. "A-Are you alright?" he asked as he stood her back up still staying close, incase she'd fall again.

Haruhi was caught off guard--she didn't really know what happened, since it all happened so fast. All Haruhi knew for sure was that she was now in Tamaki's arms, staring up into his indigo-colored eyes. She was speechless.

Before the other Hosts made it out of the gaurden, the four of them heard Haruhi's outcry. Quickly Hunny ran to see what had happened (without revealing himself of course), while dragging Kyoya along with him. He them ran behind the nearest tree, then poked his head out slightly from behind. Hunny's eyes widened with excitement; Haruhi had literally fallen into Tamaki's arms. But before Hunny could shout out and reveal himself, he ran away after the twins, pulling Kyoya along with him once again.

"D'ya think... that this plan will work?" Kaoru breathed, after the twins ran back to view the scene with Hunny and Kyoya.

Hikaru nodded. "Yeah... did you see how Tamaki caught Haruhi? We could've stayed to see her reaction..."

"But we want to cause our own form of mischief!" They said as they turned around and sprinted past Hunny and Kyoya towards their room. Once they reached it they took a moment to catch their breaths, before running into the room and turning it into chaos.

They figured, since everyone was going to be using all their clothes anyways, the other's, excluding Tamaki, wouldn't mind if they checked their wardrobes as well, right? The twins began grabbing all the clothes they saw fit for disguises, pulling out really random and odd things that they would never wear in any other situation. They were packed to be prepared for anything. You never knew what the Host Club might get into!

Once hunny and Kyoya approached their room, Hunny stopped running to take a breather. While knocking on the door (Hunny knew Hikaru & Kaoru were already inside), Hunny said, "Did you see that, Kyo-chan?! I bet Takashi had a lot to do with that!" Hunny paused a moment then added, "Okay...I know Takashi caused that."

As Haruhi balanced herself on her own feet again, she stared down at the ground in front of her, still unsure of what just happened. After a few moments though, Haruhi turned to Tamaki and gazed up at him. He seemed very concerned for her safety, and she liked that.

Finally, Haruhi nodded slowly and managed to say, "Y-yeah, I'm alright. T-thank you for catching me...Tamaki. But I wonder how--" she said as she looked back down at her feet. There was a stick...right where she had fallen. "Eh...how careless of me... I tripped over a stick..." Haruhi sighed, along with a forming sweat-drop. I thought I stepped over that thing... Guess not.

Tamaki breathed a sigh of relief as he realized Haruhi was alright. Thank goodness, he thought to himself, I don't know what I'd do if I let her get hurt.

Attempting to let the surprising event pass as if it were nothing, Haruhi looked back up at Tamaki and said, "Anyway...sorry for the slight trouble. I'll be more careful."

"Don't be sorry Haruhi." Tamaki said as he stepped away slightly to give her breathing room, "Accidents happen. I'm just grateful that I caught you in time and that you're okay." Tamaki held his hand out towards the exit and asked Haruhi, "Shall we press onward?"

Haruhi just stared at Tamaki with a smile; no more than that was to be said. Just hearing that he cared about her safety filled her with joy. Of course, that was just as friends. Knowing Tamaki, he cared about everyone's safety, and not just one person alone, or more than everyone else (in this case probably).

When Tamaki asked if they should press onward, she nodded and said, "Yeah, let's go." They then left the garden, going in the direction of the internet cafe.

Mori pumped his fist and thought to himself, score one for the boys back home...or more like back up in the room. Mori watched the couple leave the garden through the exit by the internet cafe and Mori followed the stealthily. As he discreetly followed the two out of the garden, he pulled out his cell phone and texted Hunny.

Mitzukuani
They're headed for the cafe
be ready
Mori

Just as Hunny stuffed a bunch of hats into a plastic bag, he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. Urgently, Hunny pulled it out and opened it up, then read Mori's text.

Hunny flipped his phone shut and shouted over to everyone, "Tama-chan & Haru-chan are heading for the internet cafe! We have to get down there now!" Hunny quickly grabbed a bottle of water, and with that, everyone was out the door, running for the internet cafe. As they approached it, they walked cautiously, being sure to keep quiet. Just around the corner Hunny could see Tamaki & Haruhi making their way towards them. They were running out of time. The small third-year stuck looked up at Kaoru and said, "Kao-chan, I'll need your help with this one!"

Hunny then urgently went through their many bags of clothes and hats, forcing Kaoru to do the same. Hunny settled with an indigo baseball cap, decently nice dark shades, and a medium sized white t-shirt with a red stripe going all around horizontally around the center of his chest (which was just thrown on over his original shirt). Hunny hid most of his hair inside his cap, doing his best to hide his dark blonde hair. If he had more time, Hunny would've even thrown on a different pair of shorts.

Kaoru dug through the bag, finally settling on dark shades, a black, striped fedora, and a black button up shirt. After carefully tucking in his hair, he nodded at Hunny, and the two began to walk towards their targets.

Hunny walked ahead of Kaoru a short way, placing his hands in his pockets and kept his eyes away from Tamaki & Haruhi's as they came closer. Hunny was sure to get on the same side as Tamaki. He wouldn't want their plan going wrong. As they came closer and closer, Hunny lifted up his bottle of water and took a drink. Now, Kao-chan! he thought when Hunny was just feet away from passing by Tamaki & Haruhi.

Kaoru put on an agitated face, scowling at the disguised Hunny. Once Hunny raised the bottle, Kaoru pretended to realize something, and quickly turned towards Hunny, reaching for the water bottle in his hands violently. "What the hell, Shermon?! First you steal my cheesecake, and now my water!? Give it back you kleptomaniac!"

As Tamaki led Haruhi onward to their next possible activity, he looked intently in front of them as he watched two boys arguing over something. As the two of them became rowdier, Tamaki stepped slightly in front of Haruhi as means to discreetly protect her.

Hunny turned around to face Kaoru with a barely noticeable smirk. Lowering his voice, Hunny answered loudly, "What?! I didn't steal this from you, Kain! I bought it!" Hunny jumped away from Kaoru, making sure that he wouldn't be able to actually grab it. Along with that, Hunny was sure to lift the bottle just enough in front of Tamaki, causing it to spill all over him.

Pretending not to notice, Hunny ran away, shouting back at Kaoru, "If you want it so badly, try to get it from me!" With that, Hunny ran away at full speed.

Kaoru growled, completely ignoring the now soaked teen, and running after him. "Dammit! If you don't come back here RIGHT NOW I swear I'll tell everyone what you did last summer!" And with that, Kaoru was gone, chasing after Hunny.

Hunny ran for the entrance to the hot springs and hid in the boy's locker room, with Kaoru not that far behind him. Once Kaoru caught up to Hunny, they both leaned up against the building and started laughing histarically. There was no way that Haruhi & Tamaki could hear them now. But after a good, long minute of nonstop laughing, Hunny panted, "G-good job, Kao-chan! That...was great!" Hunny then pulled off his hat and shades as he dug into his pocket for his phone. He pulled it out and quickly texted Mori:

Takashi!
Kao-chan & I did it!
Anyway, where are you? We're over by the locker rooms.
- Hunny

Tamaki looked down at his shirt with an awkward stare as the smaller of the two dosed him with his water bottle. Well, he thought as he was becoming slightly irritable, at least they didn't break out into a fist fight.

Haruhi watched blankly as the two crazed boys ran off screaming at one another. She was too pre-occupied to notice that the smaller boy poured water all over Tamaki's front side. "Oh, Tamaki, you're soaking wet! C'mon, we better go get you a change of clothes," she said to him. Without thinking, Haruhi grabbed Tamaki by the hand and began to lead him through the crowd in at a faster pace from before. At least he didn't actually get injured.

Tamaki looked up just in time to have Haruhi grab him by the hand and drag him through the crowds. He averted his gaze from Haruhri out of embarrassment not only because she was holding his hand but also she was acting a little too motherly all over a bit of water. Of corse he didn't mind her grabbing him by the hand. In fact Tamaki gently tightened his grip round her hand as well and just let her take him along to where ever she was guiding him to.

Haruhi glanced over her shoulder a little when she felt Tamaki tighten his grip around her hand. It wasn't too noticable, but she could still feel it some. I wonder why he's doing that... I guess it doesn't matter too much though. It's not important anyway, she thought to herself while she continued to guide Tamaki through the crowd.

Without looking back at him, Haruhi said, "Well, I suppose we should go back to the room now... So you can change out of your wet clothes. But maybe if we still have time we could come back down and walk around some... What do you think?"

Tamaki looked at his watch to see the time was almost 5:30, almost time to be getting ready for supper. Tamaki sighed as he realized their date was at its end. Oh well, he thought to himself, there's always tomorrow. "By the time we get back upstairs, we'd need to be getting ready for supper," Tamaki said disappointingly, "Also, the guys should be finishing up in the springs soon anyways."

Instead of just letting Haruhi drag him, Tamaki just walked with Haruhi in the direction of the rooms. However, it wasn't until a little while after they started walking did Tamaki realize that they were still holding hands. He looked down bashfully as he considered letting go, however, he could still feel Haruhi's grip tight around his hand. That's odd, he thought to himself as they continued walking, you'd think she'd want to let go. He glanced over at Haruhi looking a different direction as he tried to figure out in his head why she didn't let go.

Haruhi nodded to Tamaki's reply without speaking another word. Well, he is right. But still, I don't want this time with him to end, she thought as they began to walk toward the rooms together.

This is strange, thought Haruhi. He won't let go of my hand... Wonder why... Haruhi glanced down at their hands with her eyes; her head told her to let go, but her heart just wouldn't allow it.

Mori watched the whole scene from inside the cafe, and smiled at his little cousin's work. Not bad you two, he thought as he noticed them now holding hands, The argument was a nice touch.

Hunny & Hikaru made their way to the internet cafe, making sure that Haruhi or Tamaki weren't around to see them. They made their way inside and right away found Mori looking out one of the windows. Hunny ran over to him and glomped him from behind, shouting, "Takashi!"

Hunny let go of his cousin and looked out the window as well, trying to find Haruhi & Tamaki among the large crowd. He smiled when he saw them holding hands. "Kawaii! You see that, Kao-chan?" he said over his shoulder to Kaoru.

It was then that Hunny noticed that Haruhi & Tamaki were going in Kyoya & Hikaru's general direction. From the looks of it, they were going to be heading back to the rooms. Hunny urgently pulled out his phone and typed in:

Haru-chan & Tama-chan r going 2 pass u 2 up!
Hurry & do something, Kyo-chan!
- Hunny

Hunny sent the text to Kyoya, hoping that Kyoya would get it in time for them to do something.

Kyoya received Hunny's text and promptly began thinking. It didn't take him very long to think up an long, elaborate plan which would entertain him to no limit.

"That was Hunny-sempai," Kyoya said to Hikaru. "He says that Tamaki and Haruhi are coming this way." That being said, he began digging in the 'costume bag' for exactly what they would need.

"Alright." Hikaru said, noticing Kyoya's rummaging through the bag. "It seems like you've already thought of something... what have you got in mind?" Hikaru felt that he should be slightly afraid. This was a plan by KYOYA after all.

Kyoya smirked the smirk only the demon king could smirk. He joyfully told Hikaru of his plan.

Hikaru paled slightly. "But WHY! How come I have to be-" Hikaru was cut off when he noticed Haruhi and Tamaki coming closer and closer. He sighed in defeat. "Alright." Grumbling slightly, he dressed himself appropriately, and glared at Kyoya. It took slightly longer than he wanted. But Haruhi and Tamaki were far enough down the hall, that he had time to completely change his clothes. And a full body costume was definitely needed for the part he had to play. He ran out in front of the two targets heading straight for their hiding place.

Once he was standing directly in front of Tamaki, he smiled brightly, striking a pose and letting out a high pitched, girly giggle. He was sure if his king and Haruhi knew who he was, they would laugh until they died.

Hikaru was currently wearing long black leggings, which covered all the way down to the boots that crawled all the way up his calves. Also on his person was a hot pink mini-skirt, as well as a white tank top followed by a black jacket with long sleeves, that only fell down to about his navel. He had to wear SOMETHING to hide the fact that he was completely flat. Though, that was natural, seeing as he WAS a guy.

All the clothes were things that the twins had decided probably wouldn't have been the best to give Haruhi, and these came with a long black wig, that curled slightly at the ends. It was parted to the left, and the long bangs were hanging over one of Hikaru's eyes. On top of that was a black cap with a large skull on the front, tilted slightly to the side.

"Oh, what is such a HANDSOME boy like you doing here? And more importantly, WHY haven't we been introduced?" He squeaked in his best girly voice. He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively, popping his hip to one side. The smile was becoming painful to keep on his face.

Haruhi now focused her attention to the people in front of them. Oh wow...what a strange...girl...? I'm not one to talk...but still. Wow... she thought, with her eyes wide open as she stared at the bizzare-looking girl in front of them. She slowly backed away as Tamaki did; she did not want to be addressed by the strange girl just as Tamaki was. I feel bad for him...

Before He could think too more on that though, a girl wearing 80s rocker clothing came up to him talking sweet to him. Tamaki backed up a little as he could hardly stand the sight of her. Something about this girl is just...not right he thought to himself as he pulled Haruhi slightly behind him as means to protect her from this potential loon. However, to still be courteous to a potential customer, he bowed slightly as he said, "Hello my dear, I'm Tamaki, a member of Ouran Academy's Host Club. I'm sorry but I really have no time to really chat at the moment. As you can see, I'm of need a change of clothes and I'm busy at the moment with my friend here."

Haruhi was a little surprised when Tamaki pulled her behind him slightly, but over-joyed at the same time. Even if Tamaki was trying to hide her from the possible nut-job, Haruhi didn't want to just stand here and wait for this girl to reply. So instead, Haruhi spoke up some and said, "Y-yes, we really should be going... Our friends will be back soon and we're supposed to meet them up at our room shortly... I don't want to sound rude, but will you please excuse us? We really need to be going..."

"Oh, are you REALLY now?" Hikaru insisted, pouting almost comically. "That's such a shame." He shook his head, as if it really was a shame, before moving flipping his 'hair' over his shoulder, and striking a random pose. "But I would REALLY like to get to know you better..." He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively, really getting into the act.

Kyoya, like Hikaru, changed into a disguise, one that was significantly less humiliating.

He chose a black baseball cap to hide his 'rich boy' hair style. He also choose a white t-shirt that was much too big for him to wear on a normal basis. To top it off, he found a pair of jeans that were too large and pulled them on, but then pulled them down some to get the right affect. In addition, he slipped on a pair of Vans.
He instantly decided that he would NEVER dress like this again.

After the both of them had finished, they walked to their hiding space to wait for Tamaki and Haruhi. Kyoya noticed Hikaru leave as they approached.

Perfect, he thought. Everything was going as he planned so far, and Hikaru's outfit was the best part of it. It always entertained him to see his fellow host humiliate themselves. And, since Hikaru was actually taking this seriously, the outfit was perfectly convincing. Everything was going so perfectly that it made up for the completely ridiculous outfit he had to wear.

Kyoya stood from the on the sidelines and watched the scene. Suddenly remembered his 'schedule' and how they all had to be at dinner on time. That meant that he had to make this quick.

Meaning now was the time to intervene. He came out from his hiding spot and put his arm around Hikaru as un-awkwardly as possible. Luckily he was able to make it look natural. There was no doubt in his mind, however, that this wasn't natural in the least and he would NEVER do it of his own will again.
"Yo," he said in his best 'ghetto' impression, "Wha'cha doin' wit my girl, man?" He pretended to suddenly notice Haruhi and 'chd'. "Dude, yo cross-dresser girlfriend is right there, too. That's just sick, man!"

Hikaru pretended to suddenly be extremely interested in Kyoya and snubbed Tamaki, preparing to make the shadow king as uncomfortable as possible. He practically wrapped his upper body around Kyoya's torso, being the clingy girlfriend he was supposed to act like. "Ah! Baby!" He whined, and sounded surprised. "I wasn't doin' nuthin! He came up to me and was all like, 'hey girlfran! I swear!" He laid his head on Kyoya's shoulder. "I was so scared..."

Kyoya glared at Tamaki. He wasn't really mad at the guy, but thinking about some of the annoying things he did and all of the problems that he caused him made it easy for Kyoya to get upset enough to take some kind of action.

In a stroke of 'anger', Kyoya pushed Tamaki and half-shouted, "You like messin' wit girls man? You better watch yo back, or I'll get over here and kick yo ass." With that he turned around, dragging Hikaru with him and started walking down the hall.

To add to the fun, sort of, and to make the scene seem somewhat more realistic, Kyoya said "You, kno', this ain't the first time this happened, girl."

Hikaru giggled slightly as they sauntered off, clinging to his --erm, her 'boyfriends' arm. He flipped her(?!) hair again, just for show, before they disappeared from sight.

Once Hikaru was sure Tamaki and Haruhi could see them no longer, he began to run down the hall, the heels surprisingly giving him no hindrance, dragging Kyoya after him. "Come on, baby we gotta go change."

Kyoya glared at Hikaru when he called him 'baby'. The 'prank' was over now, why did he feel the need to continue it?

When they were in the room his gladly replaced the overly-large shirt with his original, took off his cap, and continued to take off his already half-off pants and put on his shorts. All of the way.

Ignoring whatever face Kyoya was making at the nickname, he pulled the shadow king until they reached their room, where Hikaru spared no time in throwing off the skirt he was wearing, sighing loudly in relief once it was tossed to the floor. After a few moments of silence, he spoke again. "So... do you think it worked?"

Kyoya replaced his glasses as he answered the question. "Probably. It was such a ridiculous get-up, and such a ridiculous conversation that it's bound to do something." Kyoya held back a shudder that was caused by the remembrance of his and Hikaru's previous "relationship", the way he had to talk, and the event in general.

After Hikaru and Kaoru woke him up the other day, it was great and highly enjoyable to torture him by forcing him to wear a skirt. Though, next time something like this happened, he would make sure he carefully assessed the situation so he didn't have to do anything so ridiculous again.

Hikaru nodded. "Right. Now we should probably hide that bag of clothing..." The Hitachiin brother suggested, moving towards said bag. He couldn't wait to meet back up with the others. Though, if he were lucky, Kaoru, Hunny, and Mori didn't catch his little cross-dressing escapade.

Mori of course had been watching over the scene the entire time. He was surprised he could restrain his laughter not only when he saw Hikaru in that girl's outfit, if you could call it that, but when he saw Kyoya dressed up in a rapper's getup. As the scene progressed, Mori had whipped out his phone and taken a few pictures on his cell phone, before they walked off to let whatever they were aiming for unfold.

Haruhi was speechless, and the fact that this man, and possibly the strange women, knew she was a "cross dresser" didn't make anything better. However, Haruhi did her best not to react to that. Normally she wouldn't care either way anyway. But now...she just didn't know. Unfortunately though, Haruhi's anger rose high just as soon as this gangster began bad-mouthing Tamaki. However, Tamaki reacted first.

The boyfriend of the psychotic girl talked so fast in hardly comprehensible sentences and walked away so fast that by the time Tamaki knew how to retaliate, the guy was gone. Tamaki let go of Haruhi's hand as his body tensed up as he said irritably to no one in particular, "Messing with girls huh? I would never! Women need attention, yes, but one guy shouldn't be giving attention to more than one girl. Even when I'm hosting I do my best to just pay attention to one girl at a time. God only knows how loyal I'd be if I ever got a girl--" Tamaki was so lost in his angry ranting that he almost forgot Haruhi was standing right next to him and caught himself as he realized what he was saying. Tamaki lost all of his rage to bashfulness as he finished in almost a mumble, "--friend..."

Haruhi's eyes widened as Tamaki finished his statement in just a quiet little mumble. This shocked her, a lot. She didn't quite know why, but it did. Either he's really embarrassed about the idea of having a...girlfriend. Or he just doesn't really like the idea at all, Haruhi thought as she stared up at Tamaki in a daze. Either way...I wouldn't be that girl.

He looked behind him at Haruhi who was staring at him with those big, brown eyes of her and sighed as he turned forward again. "C'mon Haruhi," he said in an almost depressed tone as he put his hands into his wet pockets, "Let's get going so we can be on time for dinner." With that, Tamaki lead his fellow host back up to their rooms.

Nodding, Haruhi followed Tamaki up to the rooms, refusing to look at him directly. So many thoughts were flowing through her head all at once: Why would he be embarrassed of the idea of having a...girlfriend. Because he doesn't want one? Or maybe because he never really thought of the idea before? ...Who came to mind when he said that...? Do I want to know? Obviously, Haruhi had no answers, especially for this random thought: And who the hell were those two?! Such a strange couple, realy...

As they approached their rooms, Haruhi pulled out her card key, and swiped it. Haruhi opened the door some, and said to Tamaki, without looking at him, "I--I'll see you in a bit, Tamaki." With that, Haruhi walked in her room and shut the door behind her.

Mori watched and listened as Tamaki ranted about being loyal girls and saw how he lost a lot of his steam after he mentioned the idea of girlfriends. Mori sighed as he though to himself, He's still embarrassed about the whole idea...Sheesh, what in the world will give him confidence? As the couple left, Mori turned around and said to Hunny and Kauro, "I think they had enough for today. Let's get going." Mori picked up his cousin and placed him on his shoulders and began walking back to the rooms on a quicker route than Tamaki as he texted Kyoya and Hikaru,

Alright guys let's give it a break
I think they've had enough
meet u 2 the room
Mori
