It has been a couple of days now and the Cultural festival was coming closer to being here. In the end everything for our candy shop would be ordered from professional pastry chefs since this is like a business school, I am a little disappointed but I can bake sweet at anytime. A bit awestruck about how huge and extravagant it was though but it is a rich kid's school after all. Classes have been canceled because of it and so I'm just walking around looking at what all the classes are doing and I'm not even sure what, my class doesn't need me now so I'm board. I let out a sigh, continue on my way, and somehow end up in the schools garden and it's huge and beautiful. "Ah, what beautiful flowers." I say in English not caring in trying to hide my voice since it seem as if no one was around. I go and sniff a red rose one of my favorite flowers and end up sneezing and giggled. "Must of breathed in some pollen." I just decide to walk around the garden for the time being.
Looking at all the beautiful flowers enjoying myself and humming a made up tune skipping along the pathway and come upon a cute little gazebo. Hmm, I think I'll go and sit under it. It's a hot and I'm a getten sweaty. I go and jog over to it and sit down in the cool shade and a nice breeze comes along. "Ah, this feels so good! He he!" I saw to myself again in English. When I talk to myself and no ones around I always talk in English though people may think it's weird that I talk to myself but who doesn't? And like my dad says, "As long as you don't answer yourself you're fine!"
It's nearing summer break so it's getting hotter out not that I'm complainen I love the summertime 'cedes summer here isn't as hot and in Southern California. The school system here in Japan is so different back home it'd be nearing the end of the school year and here it's just the beginning it sure is interesting.
I sit there thinking to myself it's really nice when I get some 'me' time. I wonder though why were having a festival so soon in the school year though...h~m...maybe to test them on how much they improve for the next one?... "Ha-ah, whatever like I care doesn't concern me!' I say putting my arms behind my head. My smile soon drops along with my arms and I let out a heavy sigh, "Everyone here is so lucky not a care in the world really besides taking over their parents business…" I smile a sad smile and feel tears sting at my eyes, "I really…" I shut my eyes and fell the warm teas slide down my cheeks, "…envy them." I lay my head on the back of the bench I was sitting on and star and the riveting sky and watch some sparrows fly above head and reach my hands to the sky out wide, tears still falling down my face and the same sad smile. "…I…" my voice cracks. "Oh, how I wish…I cold just fly away from my past…forever." Then I slowly bring my arms back down and bring them into my chest and drop my head close my eyes and grip at my blazer. Tears now pouring out stinging my eyes, "Then, then…then *hick* I-I cou-ld finally…forget *sniff sniff* everything!" I yell the last word and bring my hands to my heard. "I-I-I HATE THIS!" I tare off my hat bandana and wig, I just like wearing the hat and bandana is why I still wear it even though I have the wig now, and let my long messy hair fall on my shoulders and back. Then I take off my blazer tie and shirt, I have another underneath the uniform one, and then unwind the bandages around my chest that I use to hide my breasts, I still wear a bra with it.
I just throw everything to the ground on the side of me, and grip at my pants, "I'm such a fake…I bet everyone would hate me if they found out about me…Even Haruhi."
Closing my eyes again I put my elbows on my thighs and lay my face in my hand and start to rub my temples and groan, " I have a headache." I lye down on the bench to rest for a while and ended up falling asleep there.
At that time, though I had no idea that the entire time there were two mysterious figures in the shadows watching.
The two approach my sleeping body and hover over. "It looks like our suspicions about her were right, huh?" The first figure says to the second. The second just nods in reply. "I wonder what happened to her to make her so sad. Look, even in her sleep she cries." They look down with sorrow. "Do you think that we could help her smile a real smile?"
"Who knows we'll just have to see with time." The second figure says in reply to the first.
"Yeah, c'mon we should go before she wakes up!" The first says while starting to walk away.
"Wait!" He stops and turns to his friend with a confused look. "Do you really think it's a good idea to leave her like that?" He says pointing at me with me hair all out bandages off along with my shirt.
"Ah, you're right! We also don't want her to catch a cold!" The first person says frantically.
~Later~
I can feel someone gently shaking me and calling out to me but I don't want to get up I'm still tired so I groan in annoyance of whoever it is and open my eyes enough to see who it was, Haruhi. I go to roll to my other side but end up falling off the bench. "Ow~" I groan.
"A-are you alright?" She asks me concerned.
"Yeah," I say rubbing the arm, I fell on. "What's up?" I ask in English.
She looks at me weirdly "What's up is that we've all been looking everywhere for you!" She yells at me. *Wh-what'd I do?!*
"Why so mad? You guys did tell me you didn't need my help so I went walking around and took a short nap." I say
"…Schools practically over now…that was no short nap."
"Huh, seriously? ... I probably haven't been getting enough sleep." I say rubbing the back of my head.
"Probably? More like definitely. C'mon lets got back to class everyone's worried." She holds out a hand to me and I take it with a smile on my face. That is when I noticed that I had my blue blazer back on.
"Hay Haru," She looks up at me with a 'huh'. "Did you put my clothes back on me?"
She looks at me shocked "What are you talking about?"
"Well I was getting hot so I took of my shirt and wig an-"
"What are you crazy?! Someone could of seen you!" She scolds me and I wince a little at her rage.
"Ok, ok I'm sorry." I say trying to get her to calm down. "I won't do it again ok! … so if it wasn't you who?" I ask.
"I don't know but you'd think they'd turn you in so someone you know probably?"
"Hopefully, if not someone with a motive I'm sure." We look at each other for a couple of seconds then head off to class. *I really have to be more careful from now on.*
~Back at class~
"I found him!" Haruhi yells as soon as we enter the classroom. A lot of my classmates gathered around me asking me all sorts of questions like; 'are you ok?', 'where were you?', 'did something bad happen?' yeade yadda. Haruhi was still mad at me so she went to the other side of the room by the twins and just ignored me. While I'm desperately trying to get away from the bombshell of questions. When I finally do and go my them she just turns her back to me.
"Ruru-chan, I said I was sorry!" I say desperately.
"Don't call me that anymore it's annoying!" she says harshly and I can feel tears sting my eyes. Some classmates see this and try to cheer me up but I just kind of brush away from them.
I wipe the tears away "Humph, I don't know what you're so mad about it's not like anything happened to you." I say sharply.
"Because I worry about you, stupid!" That took me back a little. "You're so careless at times always worrying about others when you should really be taking care of yourself. Look at all the things that happened because you're like that." She looks to the floor clenching fists. "I-I don't want to loose you again after not seeing each other for so long I don't want you to leave me again." I'm quite shocked by all this she's even saying all this in front of all our classmates, something she normally never would do. "You're my best friend, I love you, and I don't want anyone to take you away from me." I just smile at her.
"Haruhi… look at me." I tell her and she does. I go, run, and hug her around the waist knocking the both of us to the floor taking her by surprise. My heads on her stomach rubbing my head against it saying "I'm so, so sorry!" Repeatedly, "I promise I'll be more careful. I-I don't want to leave again either!" I say tears streaming down my face. "so please forgive me!" I hear giggles coming from her.
"Ok, ok I for-give y-you now stop it!" She tries to say in between laughs. I ignore her and keep rubbing my head on her tummy and she keeps laughing. We didn't notice all the people watching us at first until we heard some 'awe's.
"So beautiful" on girl says. "I don't know what's going on but it's really touching one of the guys says. Huh, where they listening to the whole thing? Guess these rich kids don't have anything better to do. "Their love for one another is so deep!" I hear another girl say. "Yes, who knew we'd have another forbidden love in the Host Club!" Say what now; these chickadees sure have a wild imagination. It aint that kind of love.
"What!" I hear Hikaru yell. "That's not possible now let go of Haruhi!" He says flustered. I get and evil smirk on my face that no one sees because my face is still partly on Haruhis' stomach. Ah, I see now. He-he, this'll be fun!
"Oh, but it is." I say looking up at him all innocent like. "Ruru-chan and I been secret lovers for years now." I hear a bunch of girls' cream and some even fainted. Wo~w Haruhi is in shock by what I'm doing. I go and put my arms around her neck and look up at her all-innocent like and out the corner of my eye I can see Hikaru getting pissed and Kaoru trying to calm him down. "Looks like the cats out of the bag now." Then I get up with my arms still around her neck and push her back to the ground hovering over her now. Everyone is now looking over at us in anticipation even the teacher. Perverts "We shouldn't hide it from them anymore." I say seductively.
"WH-what are you doing Ami?' She whispers to me. I smile, wink and stick my tong out showing her I am just having some fun toying with everyone. She decides to play along, "Oh, but- but…everyone's watching us." She says bringing her hand to her mouth with a shy look in her eyes with a slight blush. I hear all the girls in the class squeal and the guys whispering stuff like; 'are they going to kiss?', 'what are they thinking?' stuff along those lines.
"Let them watch then." I say seductively leaning in closer and closer and so do our classmates. "After all snicker they are a bunch of perverts" I whisper and get up so I'm on my knees and my backs to everyone. I can hear people whispering 'did he get nervous?', 'maybe he's just to shy?', 'I think he wants Haruhi to make the first move'. *]These people are big bunch on idiots. Dude I should become an actress. I turn around on my knees still head down so no one can see my face and when I look up yell "PHYC!" wink, stick my tong out, and make the 'Rock On' sign in both hands. They were very confused. Haruhi and I just laugh. I get up dusting myself off. "Sorry guys but I don't roll that way. We were just having some fun with yall, sorry."
I turn around and help her up, "Yeah, we love each other but not that way. I'm actually quite surprised at how easy it was to trick every one."
"C'mon are ya kidden' me. I knew it'd be easy from the start. No offense but yall are stupid. You get so caught up in what's going on that you couldn't even notice that it was just an act." I say simply and wrap my arms around Haruhi.
"So, it was all an act?" Kaoru asked up. We just nodded. Everyone had a blatant look on their faces, speechless. We just look at each other since no one was talking and then hear clapping.
"Wow, you guys are just like the twins when their doing Host Club activates." I girl says to us with hearts in her eyes, that creeped me out a bit. wait what? "What you don't know?"
"That's our bid," The twins say in union. "Forbidden love between brothers."
"O~kay, there not really…" I whisper to Haruhi she sakes her head no. "Phew, good." I smile at her. "So, no-"The school bell chimed signaling the end of school. "Time ta go home yay! I've had a long day." I say all chipper.
"What are you talking about, you slept all" Haruhi started.
"Bye, bye see yall next week!" I say waving as I run out the door smiling. However, as soon as I'm far enough away I let my smile drop. I'm tired of this…I really like the people here but I'm a nuance to them all. I let out a sigh and look out the window. No matter the weather, no matter the day, it's all the same. These people are just too different from me. I love Haruhi and all but she deserves a better friend than me. I'm such a fake and liar…And I'm sick of it! I wipe away a stray tear and start walking again trying not to bump into anyone as I shuffle my feel along the tile floor.
"Why the long face?" I hear and unfamiliar voice say.
I look up to see a really hot guy obviously not from Ouran since he isn't wearing the uniform and is wearing normal street cloths. He has very light blonde hair it's like white and bright red eyes. I could feel a blush come to my face so I turn away trying to hid it and say "I'M BOUGHT!" By accident when I meant 'I'm not' and being snooty about it. I hear him try to cover up his laugh. "Fat, old bunny!" He laughs even harder and now I'm getting all flustered and pissed at myself. GAH, what the heck is wrong with my, why cant I get my Japanese straight?! I scream in my head.
"Ha-ah, I'd really love to see a 'fat, old, bunny', you're cute, I like you," He says patting my head. "I'm Shiro, what's your name?"
"Uh-ah-ah…" I was all dizzy and couldn't think straight I must have looked like a real idiot.
"Hoshi!" I hear a familiar voice scream. I turn around to see Kaoru running towards me out of breath. "Here"
"Ah, my bag" I say shocked. "I'm such a dolt I can't believe I forgot it. Thank you Kaoru."
"No problem, ah" He notices Shiro besides me. "Who's he?"
"I unno some random dude I bumped into." I reply.
"Hay now that's mean, Hoshi-Kun." He says with a smile.
"Hay I never told you my name how" He points to Kaoru who looks confused. Ah right he shouted out my name. What's wrong with me I'm being so mean and I don't know why! GAH!
"Are you alright?" Kaoru asked me worried.
I smile and nod yes "Just a rough day us all."
"Because of what happened in class? Oh right I forgot Boss wanted to know if you were coming today?"
"Nah, I just wanna go home right now."
"Ok, I'll tell him. Well, I have to go see you latter."
"Bye, bye." I wave to him as he runs off.
"Now why's it your Japanese is perfect when you talk to him but not me, hmm?" Shiro chimes in.
"SH-shut up! Why's it matter to ya anyways?" I asked. He just smiles a sexy smile at me, which made me blush even more. Man seriously, what is with me today falling asleep outside, doing that weird thing with Haru, and now I can't even talk to this guy with out getting flustered! Man that peeves me…maybe he's doing it on purpose! O~h he's gah! Humph "Whatever later dude"
"Wait!" He garbs my wrist as I was walking away. I turn to him with a 'huh?' "Actually, the truth is I'm kind of lost and was wondering if you'd help me, will you?"
"Sure but if that's all you wanted just straight up and say it don't beat around the bush. So what is it?" I ask getting my wrist back.
"Where's the Chairman's office? I have a meeting with him today but got lost in this huge school."
I giggled "The same happened to me my first day here as well I swear I still can barley find my classes." I point down another hallway completely different from the way he was going, "It's this way."
"You sure, you even just said that you can barley find your classes?"
"His office is the only room I know for sure"
He jogs up next to me "So Hoshi are you going to tell me your real name?"
"Nope … wait what?"
"I'm not an idiot I can easily tell that you're a girl and an American one as well."
"I-I don't get it besides the Chairman no one else has been able to tell." I say now not trying to sound like a boy.
"Then their all stupid you're too cute to be a guy." He says looking me in the eyes but I turn my gaze away.
"Thanks" I say with a slight smile and small blush that you couldn't even tell was there.
"Besides you let your voice slip way too much, ha-ha!" Uh, so that was the real reason. Che
"For your information it was just because you got me all frustrated." I say sharply.
"Flustered"
"As if! You just know how to say things which are impossible to say comebacks to!"
"So you're that kind of girl huh?"
"I don't know what kind you're thinking of but back home everyone just said I was feisty."
"Why's that"
I looked at him confused I didn't really think about it until now, "I unno probably 'cause I could talk to boys as easily as girls and would tease them back and new how to stand up to 'em." I say with a finger to my chin thinking more about it.
"Hmmm, interesting"
"What is?"
"Well if you could do as what you said then why couldn't you with me?" He says with a smirk.
"I- I don't know" I say flustered again he just laughs as me again. Then I stop in front of a door. "Here you go the Chairman's office."
"Thank you," He bends down and gives me a kiss on the corner of my mouth, "Next time I see you I wanna see you in girls' cloths," he says entering the office. I was in shock so I just stood there for a while. Huh, he-he-he-he kissed me! That jerk that was my first kiss I'm gunna get 'im for this! I punch the air with determination. I let my arm fall back down to my side and hung my head, who am i kidding i'll get all flustered again...
