Author's note: It's been a long while everyone! I am really sorry that my laptop's cpu failed so I was unable to provide the next chapter to you all. A lot has happened from then and now. Hopefully my writing has been improved even more so the chapters could get better. I sometimes think about rewriting the previous chapters but then I realize I should really just keep writing you know? Well I'll try to make this one lengthier than before. It would be great If my chapters could reach 3,000 words. Let me not keep you waiting any longer here is the anticipated chapter!

EDITED:2/13/2014 Not much is edited but the last time summary.

Tea with Honey

Chapter 6

Can This Lady Be Entertained? Is She Even Bored?


Last time on Tea with Honey:"But Tina, you defended me… even though you know I'm a boy?" I looked at him like he was crazy. Maybe he wasn't as confident as I thought. It's is true that I usually don't do these kind of things like defending people I barely know but... It felt like I was at home watching an anime. When there is an underdog being pressured with no one to help makes me want to speak my mind. Trying to act as a confident girl is hard but if there is one thing I am good at is acting.

"Of course I did. Aren't you my new little brother?" Am I being too forward? You two are all I have right now…

Aki looked away and said "And you're…my new big sister?" I gave a mostly genuinely happy grin, "Smart and pretty? We're definitely related!" Aki gave a small smile and laughed. As we continued on our way to Ouran there was one thing I didn't notice. One more blush.


The 3rd music room at Ouran Academy was a perfectly normal room. Well as normal as everything else at such a school. What perhaps really made this room peculiar was its eccentric occupants. You see, the room is not actually used for music (usually) but it is instead inhabited by Ouran Academy's strangest creatures... the Host Club.

Maybe you do not believe me I mean really a host club?

Is that even legal?

Well no matter and besides this club has nothing indecent-er well nothing obnoxious-aah! I mean evil-uh... hmm.

The point is Ouran High school Host Club is a place where ladies who are bored may be entertained by gentlemen who are also bored. These so called gentlemen hosts were favored by the ladies and maybe even by some of the gentlemen as well but let's not be presumptuous. This is possibly why this was the best time for a twist in their life to happen was now when they least expect it. Who would be most astounded I wonder? How about one of the most unsuspecting and oblivious (at least in appearance) members of the host club? The oldest, shortest, and pretty much uncontested cutest member of the host club was going to have the change of his life.

This particular host was happily clutching his stuffed pink bunny Usa-chan while sitting at a table that was holding a multitude of sweet cake. He gulped down another bite of cake when the sounds of the other hosts temporarily interrupts his eating.

The woes of the "king" of the host club Tamaki rang throughout the room.

"What do I do Kyoya?" Tamaki whined as he slouched down in a chair.

Kyoya, a bespectacled raven haired host barely paused in the methodical typing of his black laptop to reply.

"About what Tamaki?" Kyoya inquired.

" I have a foreign princess's luggage in the back of my limo!" Tamaki confessed.

This caught not only Kyoya's attention but also the rest of the host club's attention. The identical pair of spiked orange haired twins exchanged a sly look and together said "So the boss is a thief then?"

Tamaki turned sharply and pointed at the twins. "How dare you shady twins accuse your king of thievery!" He shouted.

"Her belongings were forgotten in the limo when I was forced to retreat from some scary girls!"

The twins shared a incredulous look.

"So boss is a cowardly thief?"

Distraught, Tamaki crouched in a shady corner of the room and tended to some mushrooms. The older twin Hikaru laughed loudly with his younger twin Kaoru.

Giving the three a small glance, Kyoya sighed as he continued to type. His thoughts centered on what type of compensation he may have to provide for Tamaki's foolishness. The tallest and quietest host with the jet black hair said nothing. "What do you think Takashi." Our tiny blonde asked. Takashi gave a small ah but said nothing more.

Struck by a curious feeling, our small host carried Usa-chan and went towards the large window. His eyes widened by the sight of our dark skinned heroine Tina walking to school with Aki Nakamura. The pair was strolling through the courtyard with other students gazing inquisitively at them. As though someone called her name, Tina tilts her head towards the window and gives an uncertain wave. With a precious smile the host gives a friendly wave of his hand then as an after thought has Usa-chan wave too.

"Mitsukuni." Takashi calls.

Mitsukuni gives one last smile and wave then leaves the window.


Tina's POV

My hand falters in its movements. Was that. . .?

"Is something wrong?" Aki asks from beside me.

I take one last glance before turning away and shaking my head no.

"I just saw someone in the window." I reply honestly.

Aki gives a small smile and continues to lead me to his school. We were receiving plenty of attention from the other students. I felt as if we were surrounded by a sea of yellow and periwinkle flowers. Its a wonder from all this attention that Aki was never found out before. It was definitely getting a little overwhelming. I take a look at how Aki is doing and he appeared as composed as ever. He would give an elegant smile and nod to the students we passed though I smile a little when I see his eye twitch at the males.

Noticing my staring Aki's eyes widened and he whips out his fan and covers his face. Maybe the staring is bothering him and my staring isn't helping anything. Eyes downcast he says that we've arrived.

"Okay." And then I follow Aki as he leads me to the front office. Things go by very smoothly at the office as I receive a very posh visitor pass that resembled more of a credit card than a pass. Though I guess I shouldn't be too surprised considering my surroundings. Ruby red carpet beneath my feet, everything that could be polished was shined to perfection, the school had palace size proportions with towering windows and an equally impressive garden. I would say students littered the halls, if that did not seem so impossible. Aki walks up to a teacher and explains my visiting.I wonder what class this is.

Aki gestures for me to enter and says that I just need to be introduced. Aki faces the students with a calm air and states, "This is my host sister from America Tina Arwood. Please treat her kindly." That sounded more like a warning than a request...

I give a small bow.

"Nice to meet you." I take a look across the room at all the curious stares. The teacher clears his throat.

"I know you are all wondering about Miss Arwood but hold your questions for after class." Among all the students I see a glaring change of a student in dark casual clothing. A head of shaggy brown hair on a student with large glasses that covered big brown eyes tilted up to peek at me. I blink and then my eyes widen. That's. . ! "Please take your seat with Miss Nakamura behind Haruhi Fujioka."

'I wonder if Haruhi can feel my stare at the back of her head?' I can see her fidget in her seat a bit. I look away. I knew Haruhi would be here she is the main character after all. But to be in this class with her already?! And those clothes mean that this is likely the first episode! Aki taps my shoulder gently. "Is something the matter... sister?" I give a small smile as my chest swells with a warm feeling. Sister huh?.

"I'll tell you later Aki." He smiles in reply and gives Haruhi a odd glance then returns his attention to the teacher.

'What did that look mean?'

As the class ends I rush over to Haruhi as the students whisper to each other. . "Hello." Haruhi jumps a little in surprise and looks at me. "Hello." she says. I decide to be straight forward with my approach.

"I'm Tina Arwood" I glance at her books.

"Looking for a place to study huh?"

Haruhi grins a little. "I'm Haruhi Fujioka and yes I am." I look back at the other students and realize that they aren't going to approach me. "Mind if I accompany you?" Haruhi tilts her head to the side as she gathers her books.

"I don't see why you would want to but you can if you want."

"Thanks just wait here please." She shrugs. I move away from her desk and go over to Aki who waits for me at the door.

"Aki do you mind if we follow Haruhi for awhile?"

Aki's gives a look of surprise. "Fujioka?" Aki glances to Haruhi. "...I suppose its alright since this trip wasn't planned...I'll come too." I thought Aki would not really want to. "Okay. Thanks Aki!" I grin as I make my way to Haruhi and gesture to Aki. "We're ready Haruhi!"

We took out time exploring the school. No one really spoke and the air was burdened with silence. Aki had his face covered with a fan and an irate Haruhi walked. We had already tried about seven rooms! I thought as we climbed up the stairs. No wonder Haruhi was so annoyed in the episode.

"So do you two know each other?" Haruhi and Aki look at each other.

"No." They answer.

Well this is kind of awkward... Aki gives Haruhi suspicious looks. Oh! Aki doesn't know that Haruhi is a girl. I guess it was silly to think that Aki would just be able to sense it or something. Aki steps starts to slow as he looks at the windows and around the hall. Aki's hand clenches on his fan.

"Fujioka.." We had stopped in front of a large door. Haruhi didn't seem to hear Aki as she looks up at the sign above the door. Music room 3...

We're here already? I brace myself as she turns the door knob. Aki's eyes widen and he raises his hand to stop her. "No wait!" Too late as Haruhi has already opened the door. We shield our eyes as we are overcome by a flurry of rose petals.

"Welcome."
