Thanks for all of the reviews! They really helped me keep going with this!
So once again, special thanks for the reviewers: Jazzy, Escape to Ouran, emogirllikes-ANIME, Mormonsrock, Death-the-kitten-Meister and Magicjewel !
And of course, my fantablous, amazing, fantasic, beautiful BETA reader: my-forgotten-rose!
Sorry it took so long, I had to re-write it 3 times to get the characters right!
"Oh my God!" I exclaimed, kneeling down to check if the poor guy was ok "I am so sorry! Are you alright?"
Alex began to laugh, smirking slightly before kneeling down and prodding the unconscious blonde.
"It finally happened" She said "You killed a man with the crotch kick!"
"I didn't mean to!" I exclaimed "It was only reflexes!"
Somehow both Alex and I had completely forgotten about the 5 other boys on the other end of the room, who were looking down at the scene with a mix of amusement and concern.
"Do you think we should help them?" The one who looked to be the youngest of the group asked, looking up at the tallest member of the group with a questioning look.
"Ah" The tall man replied
This conversation managed to draw my attention away from the unconscious man that I had possibly killed and towards the rest of the guys in the centre of the room. I noticed that Alex had done the same, and was currently going bright red at the sight of them.
"Hi there" I said, raising my hand half-heartedly and trying to calmly smile at the group "Sorry, but I may have killed your…guy" I finished.
Two redheaded guys, which look suspiciously like twins to me suddenly burst out laughing; and not just a light chuckle either. They were properly laughing their heads off, to the extent of clutching their sides and slapping the ground.
"Sorry boss!" They exclaimed between gasps "But this is so. Damn. Funny!"
Alex's strange yet useful temper then kicked into 'Angry' mode, and she stomped up to the twins, giving them the death glare
One of the shorter boys, one with brown hair and extremely feminine eyes separated himself from the group and looked down at the unconscious man at my feet
"Senpai" He asked "Are you alright?"
At this, the blonde somehow felt immediately revitalized, and leapt off of the ground and knelt before the brunette
"My darling Haruhi!" He exclaimed "My beloved daughter truly cares for her father!"
At this moment, I swear they guys eyes turned into sparkles, much into contrast to Haruhi's indifferent expression "This brings joy into my forever grateful heart!"
At this, Haruhi rolled his eyes "I wasn't worried about you, Senpai. I was actually just making sure that the girl over here isn't going to die of a heart attack." I was guessing that Haruhi was talking about me, as he nodded in my direction
"You should be really more considerate Senpai" He commented "I think you almost scared her to death"
As suddenly as he had awoken, the blonde's mood suddenly plummeted at this remark, and he ended up sulking in the corner.
"Wait a second…" Alex said, turning back to face Haruhi and me "Haruhi Fujioka?"
"Yeah" The brunette replied, equally turning to face Alex
"I'm so sorry!" Alex exclaimed, running back over to us "You look so different with your hair short! I thought for sure you were a dude! It's Alexandria, from class 1-A in Middle School, remember?"
Wait a second…this guy was a girl? And I thought I was confused with the cross-dressing dad, geez, Japan is full of surprises!
"This is Haruhi?" I exclaimed, looking at Alex and then back to Haruhi. Looking closely, those eyes did look a little too feminine, I should have guessed it.
Like me, Haruhi had short brown hair, except mine was slightly longer, long enough for it to flick out more at the edges, and instead of my green eyes, Haruhi had honest, soft and beautiful deep brown eyes. I could easily tell that she was intelligent, and telling by the way she had backhanded the blonde so swiftly, she must be pretty frank too.
I liked her already.
"Yeah" Haruhi replied, swiftly running a hand through her short hair "I cut my hair short"
"How come?" Alex asked, her blue eyes looking at Haruhi questioningly "I thought you always looked so cute with long hair! Though, you don't look too bad with short hair either, I must say!"
"Ahem" Another member of the club coughed, one wearing glasses and was writing in a black notebook. "Haruhi, would you mind introducing the rest of the club to your two friends?"
Haruhi seemed unfazed by the interruption and simply turned back to the group of boys.
"These are the Host Club" Haruhi said, indicating to the group "Host Club; meet Alexandria, she was in my class in Middle School"
The blonde had apparently gotten out of his spiraling depression, and suddenly appeared in front of Alex and me again
"My beautiful maidens" He said, bowing "If I may introduce you to the Ouran High School Host Club; this man" The blonde indicated to the one wearing glasses "He is Kyoya; the 'Cool Type' "
Kyoya nodded, gave a brief, very fake smile, and continued his writing
"The Twins" The blonde continued "Are Kaoru and Hikaru; the 'Little Devil Type' "
At that, the twins grinned, and said in perfect harmony and timing "I hope you like games, cuz' we've got the perfect one later!"
Something about this remark immediately made me dread ever encountering these guys again; I hate troublesome people.
"The small guy is Hunny-senpai; the 'Loli-shōta Type' " The guy said, indicating to a small blonde boy on a taller guy's shoulders.
If I know my languages right, which I glad to say I do; Senpai is meant to be used for somebody your senior in Japanese, right? But, this guy doesn't even look like a high-schooler!
"Hi!" Hunny exclaimed, throwing his hands up in the air and catching the pink-stuffed rabbit in the air "I'm Honey! And this" He indicated to the tall guy whose shoulders he sat "Is Takashi"
"Mori-senpai is the 'Strong, Silent Type' " The blonde explained.
Well, I could believe this guy being older than the rest! He was so tall, and sort of intimidating, if you asked me.
"You already know Haruhi" The blonde continued "The 'Natural Type' and I" He gestured to himself "Am Tamaki, the 'Princely Type' a pleasure to meet you!"
"Hey" I said, half-heartedly waving to the rest of the group "I'm Kate, my friend's Alex"
Alex grinned to the group, as if the really long, over the top introduction didn't faze her at all "Sup!"
I elbowed Alex in the ribs sharply, and whispered in her ear "The note"
"Ow! Careful Kate!" She exclaimed, taking the piece of paper from her blazer pocket "Haruhi, your mom wanted me to give this to you"
Haruhi took the piece of paper, and began reading the note aloud
"My darling Haruhi,
I just came across these two adorable girls! One of them used to go to Middle School with you, remember? She was the one who brought home your homework!
Anyway, they looked a bit bored, and all alone! So I sent them over to you!
Treat them nicely my darling! Oh, and keep that Tamaki guy away from them!
Lots of Love,
Ranka xxx"
"He's evil" Alex said, shaking her head "Pure evil"
"So you are old school friends of Haruhi?" Asked Hunny innocently, jumping down from Mori's shoulders and walking over to us
"I am" Alex said "Kate never knew Haruhi though; she was at boarding school at the time, right?"
"Yeah" I replied "I only moved to Japan about a year and a half ago, and even then half of that was spent boarding overseas. I only met Alex pretty recently"
"Ah, so you're foreigners?" Kyoya asked, still writing in his notebook as he pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose "That explains the names then."
I suddenly felt incredibly uncomfortable in front of the group, not only because they are a group of very attractive guys, plus one girl, but because each one of the seemed to be judging me at that moment in time. It felt just the same as when I first went to boarding school, and I hatedthat place.
"Alex, can we go now?" I said, my nerves clearly showing in my voice as I looked at her.
Luckily, she seemed to pick up on this, and nodded.
The next thing she said though, I will never forgive her for.
"Sorry, we have to go!" Alex said, waving to the group and pushing me towards the door "Kate's having women's problems"
"What?" I exclaimed as I was dragged out of the door and down the hallways of the posh school.
COOL TRANSITION
"Well" Alex said, looking once again at the huge gates of Ouran "That was eventful!"
I had calmed slightly about Alex's comment after leaving that god-awful pink room, and looked back at Alex, a small smile on my face "I somehow feel enlightened on the goings-on at Ouran Academy"
"Me too" She said, beginning to laugh "Let's get going, it's getting dark"
We began walking to our neighbourhood, and before we knew it, we parted and went our separate ways back to our homes.
The Ouran High School Host Club was strange, wacky and intimidating all at the same time, and whether I liked it or not, I had a feeling that I was going to be seeing them again very soon.
Once again, sorry about the late update!
I don't think I can update until next Wednesday or Thursday, I'm on a school trip. But, you never know, I may just be able to whip up a going away present to you guys!
Thanks again!
