Guess what has been updated, you guessed it, this chapter has been as well! I tried to add more dialogue and correct what I saw needed to be corrected. I hope you all stick with me as I write more of this story and see how Rei grows and how my writing will change and hopefully, get better. I enjoy my character so much, she honestly kind of molded herself. When I write what she does or says, I never know what exactly will happen next! With that,.. Please enjoy this next chapter and more to come!
Chapter 2: Woah there, Partna'!
As soon as I got into the cafeteria, the bell rang for class switch. Damn twins, holding me up... Damn school, for being so complicated with all these rooms and twisty turvy halls that form a labrynth of impossibility. I had enough time to notice there was no buffet, but it did look like a beautiful cafeteria and the food liked like heaven on a fancy tray. Sadly, with a rumbling tummy I trudged my way to my class.
The rest of the day was me trying to find where everything is. Making myself manage to look even more uncool, and seeing the twins around every corner. I don't know if it was a coincidence, or if they are following me...
What did they say earlier? Something about a music room 3? Why is there 3 music rooms? Is music that popular here? Is it split into like, classical, jazz, and maybe, folk? Is that how music works? They have so many rooms here its unbelievable.
As my thoughts wander into country music, imagining the students tuning up a banjo in overalls with a piece of straw in their mouths, while lil' ladies do' si' doed to their hearts content, I so elegantly walked smack-dab into someone. So naturally, I said the first thing that popped into my head without looking up.
"Woah ho ho! Sorry there, Partna'"
What the hell is wrong with me? Can't I be normal for once?!
Blushing, I looked up to see a giant of a man. He was stone-faced and looked slightly like one of those easter island heads. He looked like he could literally, take on anyone. I would definitely root for him. On top of his well built shoulders was a cute, little blondie with big ole adorable eyes. I instantly wanted to squeel, but thinking better of it, I tried to mantain my face, even if it was currently red from my inner cowboy/girl coming out.
"Takashi, who is that? Is he a foreigner? He is talking like a cowboy! Wow!" The little guy leaned in to get a better look at me. Which only caused the redness to spread.
"hn"
The blondie scurried down from Takashi and walked right up to me with a huge adorable smile on his face.
"Ne, what is your name? Are you new here? What year are you? Do you like cake? You have to like it, please tell me you do!"
One after another I was thrown question after question, and all I could do was was just staring at me with a arched brow.
"Uh... I am Rei. Mitsuchi Rei. And... Yes?" I said the last bit like a question becasue honestly, I forgot what all he asked.
" I am Mitsukini Haninozuka, but you can call me Hani, The guy you bumped into is Takashi Morinuzka, but you can call him Mori! We are third years in class 3-A. What is your class Rei-Chan?!"
Did...He just call me Rei-Chan?
Blushing I stammered, "1-A...I...I am...The uh...a new." If you haven't guessed by now I have a weakness for cute and cute makes me nervous. Like, how does one even become cute? I have tried for years. I have yet to find the secret!
Hani was looking up at me, his head arched. He could clearly tell I was having a hard time with speaking. He giggled and gave me another big grin.
"The twins are in the same class as you, have you talked to them yet?"
Speaking of twins, that brought me back to the whole music room thing. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad to go check it out. It wouldn't hurt to try and make friends with these high classers, gain assets to appease Soma maybe even get some cool points.
"Uh, yeah. Actually, they wanted me to meet them at a music room... The third one. Do you happen to know where that is?" Finally, I am taking control of my actions again. His cuteness isn't affecting me as much. Maybe picturing the devil twins has subsided the cute blonde.
But then, his face lit up in a way I have never seen before. My cheeks are red again. Oh I wish I could pinch his cheeks! My eyes never fully recovered.
"Yes! Yes! Takashi and I are heading there now. Follow..." He starts jogging off at this point, "me!" And he is gone. Leaving me and Mori behind.
I look up to the tall man, "What now, partna?"
He just looked at me and even though he seems like the type of person who never shows any emotion, I swear I saw his brow arch in a way that says, "Really?"
He walks past me towards the way Hani ran.
Might as well follow.
The walk to the room was very unentertaining. Honestly, it was just filled with an awkward silence as I followed Mori. Hani was no where in sight the whole time. He must have sprinted the whole way to the room. For a short dude, he sure knew how to run.
Mori stopped in front of two large doors, over-top was a sign that said, "Music room 3". He paused at the doors, successfully causing a dramatic feel that slightly unsettled my stomach. I couldn't help but nervously twiddle my thumbs as Mori pulled open the doors.
Inside, was a moronathon of epic proportions.
Hani was seated comfortably at a chair, looking over various desserts deciding in what order he would eat them. The twins seem to be harrasing the kid from class while a tall, elegant blonde guy screeches at them to, "get a way from my precious 'Haruhi!'" followed by out of place black haired dude who types away on a laptop like he is in a Starbucks just enjoying the atmosphere.
Mori had already waltzed right over to Hani's side, leaving me to gap at the scene in my lonesome.
So, of course, I did the only logical thing I could think of in that moment, and tried to slowly back out of the place as quietly as possible...
"Hey look Hikaru, Rei-Kun showed up."
"Of course he would. I mean, who wouldn't want to try and improve that monstrosity of a hair-do?"
The twin that noticed me when I was backing out started to visibly droop.
"Hikaru,... I bet you like the idea of doing Rei's hair. Finally, someone to model for you without looking at someone that is so similar to you..."
What the fuck is going on...?
"Oh Karou..." Que dramatic pose in which Hikaru caresses Karous face.
"I would rather you model for me, you are indeed perfection. No one could possibly take your place."
"Hikaru..."
"I knew this school was fucked up! I thought rich people didn't do the whole incest thing anymore, at least, not in this century! I'm gone. Done. Heading on the Nope train to Fuck-its-Ville!" Must. Escape. Abort...Abort...!
"Why, who is this? A young man has wandered into my kingdom wishing to join its ranks perhaps? Or maybe, he is here to meet the one and only king?"
The blonde guy who was yelling at the twins approached me as I was for the second time, trying to leave. I'll admit, he was a pretty handsome guy. Tall, elegant, with strange violet eyes that seemed to entrance any lady who looks. But, he seemed to annoyingly perfect.
"Actually, I'm just trying to leave.. Sorry for disturbing you all. Won't happen again. See ya'll.."
I managed to take one more step backwards before I was grabbed by blondie.
"Wait! What is your name? I have never seen you around before."
"That is because I am new. Rei... Mitsuchi Rei. Can I go now..."
"Ah yes, Rei Mistuchi. Recently adopted by Soma Mitsuchi of the famous Mitsuchi Go! leading cell phone provider of Japan. Originally born commoner."
The black haired guy was now standing next to us.
"Have you been stalking me?" Honestly, this wouldn't be the most surprising thing today. With a sensei that reminds me of Donald Trump, Ironically is named Don-Sensei, incestious twins, a pink school filled with snobby kids, me pretending to be a boy, stalking just seems...normal. Well, not normal. But, you get what I mean.
The dark haired man pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, causing them to somehow shade his eyes and bring about a dark look.
"No. I just like to be well informed of potential business opportunities. I am Kyoya Ootori. The idiot that has been rambling to you is Tamaki Souh. Over there is Haruhi, he is our newest member, commoner born. It seems you know the twins, and have met Hani and Mori senpai. We all make up the Host Club. Surely, you have already heard of us."
I took in the information Kyoya threw at me, letting it roll around my head for a few. The name Souh sounds familiar. I think Soma was telling me something important about them a while ago, that I of course was hardly listening to.
"Wait..Host Club? What is that?"
"(Gasp) Mommy! He hasn't heard of us!"
"Senpai, this is his first day here. of course he might not know what the host club is." The short brown haired guy with the big ole eyes quirked in.
"Yeah, what uh... Haruhi, was it? said. I've barely talked to anyone in this strange school. I just came here because I was curious of what these freaking twins wanted to do!"
Tamaki swept back into the spotlight.
"Well my little curious kitty, the Host Club is a group of young men with way to much time on their hands, to entertain young ladies who also have to much time on their hands. We all have a type. I..." He knelt down on one knee, and looked up at me. I couldn't help but quirk an eyebrow. 'What is this idiot doing?'
"Am the Princely type!"
"Are you sure, you seem to be more of the Jester type."
