I sit there staring out the window at the beauty of the day. It was really nice out; the sun shining brightly, not a cloud in the sky, birds singing the melody of the day all in tune with one another, and a gentle breeze i can only feel through the open window on this warm summer day.
How i wish i could just go out and lay in the grass under a nice big tree and just enjoy the day but... "Kobu-kun!" i'm stuck in class. It's been a couple of weeks now since i've arrives and i'm getting a bit used to the flow of things here. "If your done day dreaming. Can you translate line ten?" My English teacher asks me.
"Yes sir." As i go to read the sentience i forgot that i'm supposed to stand and earn a cold glare from my teacher. Embarrassing myself once again all the girls giggle and the boys calling me 'stupid', 'idiot', etc. "Sorry, umm...lets see line ten?" i say to myself and get more laughter from the class for talking to myself. "Ah, here it is. It was late at night and the young girl walking home decides to take a shortcut through an ally and has yet to realize what awaits her there." Flawless as usual. "Eh, thats scarey why would the school be making us read this?" I didn't realize i said that out loud.
"Don't worry Hoshi-kun i'll protect you! So dont be scared!" Mayu one of my classmates says/screams and gets closer and closer to me and soon more of the girls join in saying 'No i'll protect you!', 'Dont be scared!', yaddy yada so on and so forth. All the girls seem to have made a likeing to me in such a short time that i've been here and it's really annoying since i'm a GIRL but they dont know so it's not their fault.
The teacher has to hit his ruler on the desk to get the girls to stop. "Well done Kobu-kun now-" the bell rings to signal the end of school interrupts him. "Well continue this lesson tomorrow your dismissed."
I try to gather my things quickly to meet up with Ryuo and Hiroko to get on home but in the hallway Mayu spots me and "Hoshi-kun, you were grate in class today your English is incredible!." she exclaims happily.
"Thank you, but where i'm from it's not that great." Opps mistake there.
"Oh, really where are you from?"I just stand there frozen and trying to come up with an excuse once again. "Well?"
"Oh, umm...er...o,o,Okinawa!" That was the first place in Japan that i could think of so i'm just gunna have to remember that encase anyone else asks.
"Oh, the schools there must be really advanced then or your all really smart. That also would explain such tan skin." She giggles. "But...i'm still puzzled by your hair is it dyed?"
"No, it's 100% natural. It's genetic from my mothers side of the family. Sorry Mayu-san but i really have to get going, bye!" I say running off just leaving here there all confused.
"Your late!" Hiroko yells at me. I say my 'sorry' again this happens almost everyday.
"Girl trouble again." Ryuo says laughing at me and Hiroko joins in on the joke. They both love teasing me and it's really annoying!
"It's not funny!" My voice cracks which just makes him laugh even more that happens whenever i get embarrassed or frustrated.
"Ca'mon we gotta pick up the twins today. I know a short chut we can take." He says still laughing.
On our way to get the twins we come across what to me looks like a manor of some kind. It was HUGE and as i got a better look at it it had many buildings in it so it coldn't be a manor or at lease not one i've ever seen and why would one be in the middle of the city. So i ask "Hay guys what's this place?"
Hiroko 'puffs' and says "A stupid rich kid school that's what it is!"
"Eh, thats a school it's so big!" I say in amazement. Even private schools in America weren't this big.
"Yeah, it Ouran Academy. It goes from grade school to high school. It's a good school but-"
Hiroko interrupts "All the kids there are snobs and dont know the meaning of hard work. The only reason this guy here isn't like that is because his parents raised him as though he was like you and me." He pauses for a second or two then continues "Also theirs the Host Club-"
I cut in "A H-Host Club? Isn't that where they..."
Ryuo jumps in again "I dont know what kind of Host Club they are but who knows i've never actually seen them i left the school before it was made but i know some girls that go to it and they seem to really enjoy it and that all the guys are really handsome. I'm not about to judge before i get to know them unlike someone i know." He say the last part looking toward Hiroko. He just glares at Ryuo. "Anyway we should get hurrying or we'll get in trouble."
With that we left the Ouran academy behind us running to the kids school. It doesn't take to long for us to get there and Sakura and Aiji come running towards us as soon as were in sight and wave goodbye to their teacher and take off to home.
I don't get to much time to relax when we get there because i have work that night and had to get ready. Yes even at work i had to be a boy. I work at this big time restaurant but it also serves as other things for party's and stuff for executive people and of course rich people as well. Tonight was a big night apparently and this really important guy was coming some guy by the name of Suou or something some Japanese names are hard to pronounce. And for some wakey reason i was the one that was to greet him greaaat i'm gunna totally embarrass myself again by pronouncing his name wrong. Well at least the boss showed me a picture so i know which one he is.
Speaking of which here he comes. "Welcome, Suou-sama, we are very pleased to have you here today." I bow respectfully before him in the way i was told to.
He smiled warmly at me and then laughed."Now boy there is no need to bow down so low."
"Sorry sir this is my first time meeting someone so high up" i apologize.
"You are quite young to be working at a place like this. You must be a very skilled worker and such a cute face. You look just like a girl." He laughs some more.
"N-not really sir but thank you for the complement. Now shall i show you to your seat. Oh, i'm sorry i didn't notice your acquaintance there." I say noticing a boy with blonde hair that looked to be around my age.
"Oh, yes i forgot he was there as well. This is my son Tamaki."
"Very nice to meet you." I say bowing once again.
"Yes, verry nice to meet you as well. Umm..." he looks down at my name tag. "Kobu-kun" He says very happy and then grabs my had and shakes it.
"P-please dont call me that Hoshi is just fine." I say showing them to their table.
"Here you go and here are the menu's. I'll be back in a couple of minutes to take your orders." I smile then walk away into the kitchen.
I sigh deeply when i get in there in relief of getting through the first part. I hear giggles from one of the workers, Hikari. "Having fun?" She teases.
"Hay it's not funny. I was so nervous but those guys are just plain weird. Especially the son he's really friendly." i state simply.
"Yeah, alot of rich people are But Tamaki-sama is cute." she giggles."Well you better get back out there here are the waters for them." She hands me a tray with to waters on champagne glasses to me and I say my thanks then leave.
I give them their drinks and as i'm about to take their orders i hear noises and then a guy with a gun comes running in and aimes for Mr. Suou and without even thinking, my feet are just moving on their own i go and push him out of the way and the bulet grazes my arm.
That's when the police swarm the place. "Hoshi are you alright?" Tamaki asks.
"Yeah, this is nothen i've gotten worse." I say laughing
"Eh, Hoshi you are very brave to be laughing with a wound like that. Come on we'll take you to the hospital to get you all fixed up." He says worried.
"Dont worry i'm fine really."
"No, you're going to the hospital young man and on our expenses too." Tamaki's dad demands of me.
"But.." I just sigh in defeat "yes sir."
They take me to an helicopter that is on the roof and fly me to the hospital. Which i didn't get since their was a hospital right down the street and they took me one that was farther away as well as the Suou's accompanied me the entire way. I just needed a couple of stitches and that was it.
"Young man, you should be very proud of yourself not many people would through themselves in front of a bullet to save someone they don't know." The doctor say acknowledging me.
"It was nothing. I've done it several times before."
"Is that so then you must have many scars form all of those bullets." Mr. Suou say coming in to see how i was doing.
"HOSHI!"Tamaki comes in and gives me a giant hug seeing that i was okay. I must have made an impression for him to hug me. "I'm so glad my new friend is okay!" He's crying now.
"Don't worry i'm a pritty tough guy. I won't let some dumn old bulet stop me." I say confidently.
They all laugh at my remark and Mr. Suou coughs so he could talk. "Now, to show my gratitude toward you i am offering you a full scholarship to Ouran Highschool." He says and Tamaki eyes sparkle with joy and me well i just sit there in shock of what was just said.
"That's great, Hoshi, we'll be going to the same school together please say you'll go." Tamaki does puppy dog eyes.
"Umm, thanks but..." Then everyone starts giving me puppy dog eyes and i just sigh. "I'll think about it and have a discussion with my family."
"That's fine here's my card and give me a call to give me your decision and we'll scheduled a walk around the school." He says handing me his card. "Come with us and we'll take you home."
"O-okay"
"I really hope you do come to the school it's great!" Tamaki tells me excitedly and with that we left the hospital.
