"What am I support to sing?" Chi asked. Everyone started to think, including Tamaki. Kyouya opened his mouth, but Tamaki spoke, "Do you any songs that have piano?" Everyone looked at Tamaki, with wide eyes except for Chi, who nodded. Tamaki smiled and lead her to the grand piano. She told
Tamaki the song so quietly that the others couldn't hear and he smiled slightly. Everyone looked at them as if the two were scheming something that could destroy the world. Tamaki started to play the piano, and then Chi opened her mouth. A beautiful sound came out from her mouth.
Paper flowers
Paper flowers
I linger in the doorway
Of alarm clocks screaming monsters calling my name
Let me stay where the wind will whisper to me
Where the rain drops as they're falling tell a story
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby (paper flowers)
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me (paper flowers)
Don't say I'm out of touch
With this rampant chaos, your reality
I know well what lies beyond my sleeping refuge
The nightmare I built my own world to escape
In my field of paper flowers
And candy clouds of lullaby (paper flowers)
I lie inside myself for hours
And watch my purple sky fly over me (paper flowers)
Paper flowers
Paper flowers
The host clapped enthusiastically. Tamaki smiled as he got up from the piano. Chi blushed lightly from the clapping and what happened next didn't help her either. The king of the host spun her around to face him. He kissed the back of her hand before saying, "That was beautiful, Chi. You should sing more often. Ever think of joining the choir? You would probably get every female solo." Chi's blushed deepened from the kiss, but vanished after the choir comment.
Tamaki raised an eyebrow in question. Chi said, "I did, but getting bossed around by snobby, rich girls really isn't my thing." A slight laugh came from everyone. The twins shared a wink before asking, "Hey Kyouya?" The raven haired looked at them, "Yes?" They started to walk toward Chi while asking, "Have you chosen the entertainment for the ball, yet?" Kyouya held his chin in thought, "I'm not decided yet. Why do you have a suggestion?"
One of the twins came from behind; wrapping around Chi's shoulders, nuzzling his head into the crook of her neck started saying, "Actually yes. She's very talented and sweet…" The other one came from the front, hugging around the waist finished his brother's thought, "Yes, and I know she wouldn't ask for money in return." The twins used their best seductive eyes, but Chi was immune.
Kyouya looked at Chi and asked, "Well Chi would you like to perform at the ball?" Chi looked at the raven hair man with her blue grey eyes brushing some white hair away from her eyes. The twins had let go of her and looked at her with begging eyes. She looked at the rest of the host club. They all had a look of wanting in their eyes including Mori, but his was less visible.
"Only if you want me to sing," she said. Everyone let out a cheer of happiness. Chi smiled at them. She looked at Kyouya, "I must thank you for letting practice here, but it wouldn't feel right if I was granted this without having to pay." Everyone gasped as Kyouya said, "You are correct. Besides I wouldn't let you practice here for free." Lifting her hand to hold her chin with her thumb and curved forefinger, she said, "Maybe I could work for you."
"It's a little late for that. Everyone knows you're a girl, so you becoming a host is impossible," the twins said. Chi looked up in thought then around the room till something caught her eye, "You have to leave your guest in order to get cake and tea, correct?" They all nodded. She smiled, "I could wheel the cart, which would give you more time with your guest and raise profits by at least five percent."
Everyone looked at her as if she was crazy or a genius. Tamaki smiled and patted her head, "She's right you know." Chi looked up at Tamaki with a slight blush. He looked at the others, "Boys, we have a new maid." Chi raised an eyebrow at him before he said, "In a since." Everyone looked at Tamaki, especially Haruhi and Chi.
"What do you mean by, 'in a since'," Haruhi asked. Tamaki looked at her, "Well she's going to bringing us food and drink." "OW!" he yelled. Chi moved her hand from his head, "I'm not your servant." He rubbed his head looking at her, from that angle Chi had a slight glow, even with her dark clothing, that made her look somewhat like a goddess.
"With you joining us you're going to need all of our phone numbers, just in case something comes up," Kyouya said. Chi pulled out her phone, a midnight blue touch screen full key board, and handed it to him, "Insert your phone numbers." They looked at her with wide eyes. Raising an eyebrow she asked, "What is there something wrong?" The twins were the first to speak, "How'd a commoner get a phone like that?" Chi sighed, "My grandfather bought it for me a few years ago and pays for the plan." Everyone nodded and entered their cell phone numbers. Tamaki was the last one to enter his number.
She put the phone back in the bag and looked at Tamaki. "What period do you have pre calculus, Tamaki?" Tamaki thought for a moment then said, "Third period, why?" She smiled, "I've been transferred to your pre calculus class." His eyes widened as Chi's soft, gentile, and very rare smile grew. His mouth opened slightly, he was causing her to smile. And it was her true smile, not one she might put on to make people not be so worried.
The host club and Chi then had a meeting about that week's cosplays. Once that was finished everyone went to class. Everything was very boring until third period that is.
Tamaki was sitting in his seat as the teacher, Miss Cook, walked in with Chi following her. A few of the boys were mumbling something about "using" the new girl while the girls in the class were talking about how she wasn't wearing a uniform and guessing why, but Tamaki didn't notice. He was looking right at Chi and thought of reasons she may have been transferred to his math class, she was a grade behind him after all. The only time a student might have a class in the grade above was for Advance Placement.
After a while his mind moved to different questions like; why was her hair white? Was it dye or oddly natural? Why was she usually so quiet? Why didn't she wear clothes that accented her best parts? What was with all the dark clothes? They really didn't fit her personality. And that collar, what was it for? She wore it all the time. He also felt like she was hiding something from everyone, but he didn't know what and it was starting to annoy him like that itch you can't scratch.
Miss Cook cleared her throat before saying, "Class we are getting a new student. Her name is Chi Kagi and this is an AP class for her. Yes she is a first year, unlike you second years, so I suspect you to be polite to her. Seeing that the only open seat is next to Mr. Suoh, you will be sitting there unless I decide otherwise, understand?" Chi nodded and went to her seat. When she looked over Tamaki smiled at her, causing her to shift her eyes away and try to hide a deep blush, which came out as a soft rose type pink.
Tamaki saw this and smiled to himself. Another girl on the hook, but something felt different. All he could think about the rest of the period was Chi with her small yet beautiful smile. Once class was over he saw that Chi was the first to leave the room. He collected his things and went to his locker.
He walked down the hallway that lead to the lunch room and stopped just as he turned the corner. Two male students with very greasy hair and their uniforms worn in a way that made you think the just took the garb from someone on the streets were pinning a student to the lockers. Tamaki tried to get a better look at the student they were pinning to the lockers, but he couldn't see. He continued to walk down the hall to get a better view of the student only to be shocked. The student being pinned to the lockers was Chi.
"What do you to think you're doing?" Tamaki asked, trying to sound tough. One of the boys looked at him then said, "This bitch wouldn't do as we fucking said so we're putting some fucking sense into her." Tamaki didn't really listen to them because he was too busy looking at Chi, her eyes looked so scared. He then stared at them as they looked at him like he was an idiot. Something unexpected happened after that.
Tamaki kicked one of them sending him flying. The one that was still pinning her said, "What's with you? You want to protect the nerd or something?" Chi took this opportunity to become free. She grabbed the guys hand and twisted it causing his to scream in pain and drop her to the ground. She moved herself to stand behind Tamaki as the guy held his hand and said, "Shit! Bitch is going to fucken pay for that! Move Suoh!" Tamaki stud his ground and said something that sounded like a command, "I'm not moving unless it's with Chi, understand." The guy was about to punch him in the face but the speakers came on, "Tamaki Suoh, Chi Kagi, Shao Kahn, and Kane Cage report to the principal's office. I repeat report to the principal's office."
