Arc-en: *Sighs* De's sulking in some kind of corner now because 1, she doesn't own anything related to this except for her OC's, and 2, because all the people who didn't win the contest had some really good ideas…. Stupid Author… -_-'
Me: I'M SO SORRY! TToTT
WARNING: This is a filler before the beach episode since we left off right after lunch! Also, now we find out why Ichi didn't want the twins to call her Foxy! Also, Arc-en is pronounced like Arson.
Ch.17 New boyfriend?
Normal P.O.V
A few hours after Ichi had made lunch, Cho was at the neighbors playing with her niece, and Ichi was on the way to work. When she walked into Taberu, she was instantly glomped onto the floor.
"FOXY! You look terrible! Come on, I'll fix you up!" The strange, open-shirted, boy yelled and dragged her up. Ichi looked annoyed but followed anyway.
"Well gee, thanks Arcy… Where's your Aunt when I need her..?" Ichi was trying to get out of his grasp, but he was bigger and more muscular than her… Heck, he could have a fair fight with both of the twins if he tried…
"Foxy, you idiot… Taberu isn't open today! We're just getting things ready for tomorrow night and then you can come eat dinner with us. I won't take no for an answer!" She grumbled a response and just let him drag her over to the bar.
"Hiya Blacks! Arc-en, hun, please quit dragging the workers…" Sheila scolded. He grinned and set Ichi down on top of the counter before going into the back to get his latest works. Ichi rubbed her now sore arms and glared at Sheila.
"How many nicknames do I have anyway? Never mind, more importantly…" She then looked over her shoulder as Arc-en came out of the back with a large suitcase in tow. "What are you doing here Arcy? I thought you were staying with the G-rents?"
"I was, but I got a free ride to your school for a music class starting in two days! Isn't that great?" Ichi's face paled before she sunk into her very own emo-corner while growing what looked like small leaves.
"Just… great…" She groaned. Arc-en just laughed boldly and ruffled her already messy hair. When he laughed, you could clearly see the bright flash of silver on his tongue.
"It's only for that class Foxy, and it's the last one right? How come they're just now starting it?" He clearly looked confused because he always tried to find reason for something.
"Because I've been working my butt off during school setting up the equipment and working as a host…" She slapped a hand over her mouth as soon as she realized what she said. She groaned at the look of interest on Arc-en's face.
"I thought hosts were boys? What are you doing as a 'host' then?" Unfortunately, now she would have to explain everything to him while they set up for the next day. After explaining everything she's been up to since the last time he visited, Ichi breathed out in relied and finished cleaning up.
"Hmm… I'd like to meet these other hosts… They sound like egotistical and stereotypical rich kids…" He sneered at the image in his head while Ichi snorted.
"You have no idea… Can I go try on your outfits now so we can eat?" She blushed embarrassedly from the noise coming from her stomach while Arc-en laughed and dragged her all the way to Sheila's with new clothes in tow… Sheila had left awhile ago.
Soon the two teens arrived at Sheila's and Arc-en quickly dragged Ichi into one of the bathrooms with the suitcase.
"Here, try these on! If you don't like them, be honest ok Foxy?" Arc-en waited in the hallway after getting shoved out of the bathroom. He had made three different outfits for her to try on.
"Dang Arcy! Are you trying to suffocate me?" Ichi walked out of the bathroom with a skin-tight black body suit with rips and cuts all over it to make it look almost illusion-like. Chains hung from various places and a large choker brace was around her neck.
"You have the body for it. Besides, that's why I put in the cuts… Oh well, there are two more outfits…" He shoved her back into the bathroom and stole her regular clothes and cell phone the twins gave her.
"Ooh~ Nice phone… Is this what you get for being the pretty play thing for those dogs you call friends?" She sighed at the usual acts Arc-en used and replied plainly.
"Yes, friends… The twins gave me the phone… I told you about the Hitachiin twins…" He agreed and searched through the contacts before looking at Ichi's next outfit.
It was a two piece outfit this time with amber flares up the sides of a black skirt that had little silver sparkles lining the flares. The top was all white but had three different colored spark-like designs on the front and back. They were amber, black, and silver.
"I feel as if this one was made for my colors…" She smiled knowingly at Arc-en before giving him a hug. He secretly took a picture of it with her phone and hugged her back.
"Ok, you got me! Go try on the last one though! You'll look great!" She went back in and he quickly found the twins on her contacts list. He set up two picture messages in the draft box and waited for her to come out for the last time.
"Oh wow! I love it Arcy! You really need to sell these someday!" Ichi said while walking out. He laughed and spun her before catching her in his arms and taking a picture when she wasn't looking.
"That dress isn't one of my best, though it looks just great on you!" It's true, the dress looked like it was made just for Ichi.
It framed her curves and chest perfectly while covering the scarred shoulder and showing the smooth one. The cloth was a smoky onyx color with a charred ash black kind of dust covering it in a dazzling fashion. When she moved, the ash looked like it shined with a dull fire from the lights and her amber eyes shone bright.
"Do I get to keep this?" She asked looking at him shyly. He ruffled Ichi's hair and sent her back into the bathroom with her normal clothes.
"Of course Foxy! Now go change into your street rat clothes and I'll be downstairs with your phone and other stuff…" He went downstairs and sent the two pictures to the twins. The text was this:
'From Ichi: *Pictures*
Hey! This is NOT Foxy! I'm the guy in the pictures! Aren't these outfits cool? I heard your mom was a designer and wanted to show you my designs! Do what you want with the pics though!'
He snickered and waited for the reply.
Ding!
'From Hitachiin-Sama's:
Woah! Are you Foxy's new boyfriend or something? That was fast! These designs are really good… They look like they were made for her… Yeah, we'll show these to mom and then we have another idea for these pictures… Thanks and tell Foxy we said Hey!'
Arc-en laughed and smiled evilly. An idea had been formed and he didn't care what would happen if he went with it.
'From Ichi:
Yes, yes I am her new boyfriend! Fusei is forgotten! Anyway, thanks a lot and I can meet you both after school in 2 days… Foxy told me about the hosting and I'll keep it secret! I will, bye!'
He chuckled and deleted all evidence when he heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Arc-en put her phone on the counter and pulled her chair out at the table.
"Ok, I'm done! Ah~ Did Sheila cook? Where is she?" Ichi asked while looking at the table filled with good looking food.
"Yeah, Aunt Sheila went out to get some soda for us but she said to go ahead and eat…" He said and soon they were seated. Ichi always enjoyed Sheila's cooking. It always had a different style or taste to it, she thought.
"Oh, the twins said hey…." Ichi nodded in response before her head snapped up and she looked at him.
"When did you talk to them? Ah! My phone! Arcy…" She groaned. He smirked before adding more information.
"I showed them some pictures of the outfits and they said they wanted to talk to me at the club! Isn't that great?" Ichi nodded in defeat before the door opened and Sheila walked in.
"Here ya go, I bought your favorites! For Arc-en, a cherry Dr. Pepper, and for Blacks, a Wild Cherry Pepsi!" She set the drinks down in front of the two before pulling her own chair out and taking a Cream Soda out of the bag.
"Thanks Sheila! What do I owe you this time?" Ichi asked while reaching into a small purse hanging down from her shoulder and neck.
"Nothing much, I can just take a dollar out of your pay anyway, not that it matters. Just shut up and eat." She laughed while Ichi deadpanned. Arc-en took a swig of his drink before saying his thanks, and soon they had finished their meal.
"Hey, you wanna ride to school tomorrow? I rode here on my Harley this time!" Arc-en asked while walking Ichi home. She pumped her fist in the air excitedly.
"Heck yeah! Thanks Arcy!" She hugged him tightly before letting go and they kept walking.
"No problem Foxy~! I can't wait to start music class after tomorrow! I just hope the outfits aren't as god-awful as you say they are…" He stuck out his tongue and Ichi laughed.
"Only the girl's outfit! We get to wear the boy's suits! You're going to freak at the dresses they have to wear… They're yellow!" Arc-en practically shrieked and Ichi covered her ears.
"Oh dear Kami-sama! That's horrendous! Yellow is to much of a happy and bright color…" He shivered. "Hey Foxy, wanna sing with me!" Ichi cocked her eyebrow.
"Right now?" Arc-en nodded. "Sure! What should we sing?" She was laughing when Arc-en grabbed her hand in a romantic gesture.
"Why, a love song of course!" He said dramatically. Ichi went along with the act and spun him around before dipping him.
"Haha, but of course~!" She giggled and then brought him up. They started walking down the road swinging their arms hand in hand. "Which one?"
"Oh jeez…" Suddenly he started laughing before singing, "Don't go breaking my heart~"
Ichi laughed before starting as well. (Ichi, Arc-en, both)
"I couldn't if I tried~"
"Honey if I get restless~"
"Baby you're not that kind~"
"Bum bum bum, bum bum! Ahaha~"
"Don't go breaking my heart~"
"You take the weight off of me~"
"Oh Honey, when you knocked on my door~"
"I gave you my key~"
"Ooohooh~"
"Nobody knows it~! When I was down~"
"I was your clown~"
"Ooohooh, nobody knows it! Nobody knows~"
"Right from the start~"
"I gave you my heart~ Oooooh oh! I gave you my heart~"
"So don't go breaking my heart~"
"I won't go breaking your heart~"
"Don't go breaking my heart!"
At the pause, they danced around a bit while laughing and having fun. Secretly, the twins and Tamaki watched with shocked faces.
"And nobody told us~"
"'Cause nobody showed us~"
"And now it's up to us babe~"
"Woah, I think we can make it~"
"So don't misunderstand me~"
"You put the light in my life~"
"Oh you put the spark to the flame~"
"I've got your heart in my sights~"
"Ooohoo! Nobody knows it~"
"When I was down~"
"I was your clown~"
"Ooohoo! Nobody knows it~"
"Right from the start~"
"I gave you my heart~ Oooh oh! I gave you my heart~"
"So don't go breaking my heart~"
"I won't go breaking your heart~"
"Don't go breaking my heart~"
While they waited for the right timing, they spun each other around and this time, Arc-en dipped Ichi and made a fake romantic pose like he was going to kiss her before lifting her up.
"Ooohoo! Nobody knows it~"
"When I was down~"
"I was your clown~"
"Right from the start~"
"I gave you my heart~"
"Oooh~"
"I gave you my heart~"
"So don't go breaking my heart~"
"I won't go breaking your heart!"
"Don't go breaking my-"
"Don't go breaking my-"
"Don't go breaking my heart~"
"Don't go breaking my-"
"Don't go breaking my-"
"I won't go breaking your heart~"
"Don't go breaking my heart~"
"I won't go breaking your heart~"
"Don't go breaking my heart~"
"I won't go breaking your heart~"
They sang that until they faded into whispers and burst out laughing. The twins were smirking and taking pictures while Tamaki was crying because, 'Sister was keeping secrets…'
Soon Ichi was home and they both kissed each of the other's cheeks before parting ways.
"Ah~ At least he's a Frenchman and a gentleman!" Tamaki whispered. Arc-en walked past their hiding place and smirked.
"Night boys!" He called as he walked past. The trio anime fell out of the bush and Arc-en just chuckled while walking away,
"Boss this is all your fault!" Kaoru teased.
"Yeah, if you hadn't said anything, he wouldn't have noticed us!" Hikaru added, making Tamaki freak out.
"What? This isn't my fault! Besides! You dragged me here!" He kept flailing about before they all left, arguing with each other.
Time skip… Next morning
'Knock knock!'
"Ah, just in time Arcy! Bye Maman! Bye Cho! Have a good day with the neighbors!" Ichi called before shutting the door.
"Mornin' Foxy! Hop on!" Arc-en said and tossed her a black helmet with 'Foxy~' written in amber on the side. She quickly put it on and got behind Arc-en on the bike.
"Morning! I'm all set!" He started the bike and she held on tight while he sped down the road. Ichi saw Haruhi's figure walking down the road and told Arc-en to stop beside of her.
"Haruhi!" Ichi called and hugged said startled girl. Haruhi tried to look through the helmet when Ichi laughed and pulled it off.
"Oh! Good morning Ichi! What are you doing?" Haruhi looked at her and then at Arc-en. "And who's that?" She pointed at Arc-en.
"Oh! Arcy's taking me to school! He's a good friend of mine and Sheila's nephew… You wanna lift?" Ichi asked, but before Haruhi could respond, Ichi's helmet was on her head and she was sat behind Arc-en. Haruhi held tightly to Arc-en while Ichi climbed on top of the handle bars without a helmet.
"GO!" Ichi shouted and suddenly they took off. Twenty minutes later they had arrived. Girls squealed as they saw Ichi ride in on top of the handle bars of some strangers Harley and waited anxiously to see who the others were.
"Morning ladies~" Ichi said, 'Seductively.' She wore her hair messy with a fringe covering one eye, her blazer was undone and the baggy dress shirt was undone a little with the tie hanging around her shoulders. She had a smirk on her face as she pried Haruhi off of Arc-en's waist.
"Haruhi, don't tell me, this is your first time on a bike?" Haruhi nodded slowly as millions of squeals were heard. Ichi took her helmet off the poor girl and handed it back to Arcy before hugging him. He nodded and sped off.
Girls booed as he left because they didn't get to see who he was, but then crowded around Haruhi and Ichi. The hosts had also seen there arrival and came to investigate as well.
"Haruhi~ You looked so cool on that bike!" Some of the girls cheered. Along with several other things… They fussed over the dizzy student while some of Ichi's regulars surrounded her.
"Ichi-kun! You shouldn't be riding like that, it's dangerous!" A girl said. Ichi quickly flashed a smirk at her before suddenly spinning her in a dip and leaning right towards her face.
"But… I'm The Dark Prince. What would my title be if I didn't live dangerously, hmm?" He lifted her back up and spun her into a standing position with her friends. She nearly fainted. The others blushed before an even braver girl came up to her.
"Ehem… Ichi-kun? Are you… g-gay?" Ichi chuckled deeply before shaking her head.
"No, my little princesses… I am not gay…" She then smiled wickedly, "I'm merely an amazing actor! That was just a show I put on for you all! Did you like it?" She then looked down sadly and held her heart as if it hurt.
"KYA~ NO WE LOVED IT!" They all shouted. Ichi looked up and put on a grateful smile.
"Thank you all! It means so much to me! I may be called a Dark Prince, but I am merely a shadowed boy when it comes to the other hosts…" The boys looked shocked. Some knew she was acting, others were oblivious.
"Especially to the shining white prince! Tamaki Suoh!" She called while gesturing towards said boy. The girls all turned their attention to him while he looked at Ichi surprisingly. He knew how similar that act was to how Kyouya acted…
'Ichi will never do anything to upstage the Suoh's or anyone else of higher stature… She will only try to be as good as everyone expects her to be before making the other, look better…' Tamaki thought with a small sad smile on his face. Ichi escaped to her class with the other second year while Tamaki was being swooned over.
"I know what you're doing…" Kyouya said with a smart smirk on his face. Ichi just looked at him plainly. "You shouldn't hold back next ti-"
"I'm sorry Kyouya, but you can't tell me what to do when you're doing the exact same thing. I respect your wisdom and knowledge, but I'm going to kindly ask you to watch what you say to me. I'm smarter than I let on…." Ichi held a firm gaze on his slightly shocked features before her faint smile appeared on her face.
"Besides… The only reason we do this… Is because we don't know how much we're capable of… right?" Her faint smile made his eyes widen more, but he quickly flashed his glasses.
"I believe you are correct. I apologize for underestimating you." He said back. She smiled faintly once more before they both returned to their seats. Kyouya was surprised that she had grown to love the host club and trust them so quickly, but when he thought about it, it wasn't really surprising with her…
'I'll have to keep an eye on that one… Any sign of love shown to Ichi can make her do anything that person wants… Fusei was a living example…' Kyouya thought. It was true… Ichi had grown up without a lot of love from one part of her family, so anyone who gives it to her now, would be like a hero in her eyes… A hero she would be indebted to…
At lunch, the hosts saw Ichi about to leave the building while walking to the cafeteria.
"Kit-chan! Where are you going?" Ichi turned around in surprise and waved over to the guys who all walked towards her.
"Hey guys, and Haruhi…" She rubbed her neck sheepishly, "I'm going out to lunch! What are you guys doing?" She looked confusedly at the hosts while she still had her hands on the door handles.
"We're going to the cafeteria." Haruhi said. An engine sounded and Ichi jumped. "Oh, are you going out to eat with Arcy?"
"Yeah! I'm trying to catch up with him because I only get to see him every few months but now he'll be starting school here tomorrow! Well, see you later guys!" She ran out the doors and hugged Arc-en who spun her around a few times in the hug. They laughed and the hosts all watched.
"Who's that guy, Arcy?" Hani questioned. Tamaki and the twins all gave an answer at the same time.
"Ichi's new boyfriend…" Haruhi had another answer though.
"Sheila's nephew and her good friend." Sadly, Haruhi's sentence was only heard by Kyouya. A strange feeling bubbled up in Mori and his eyes flashed to the boy with black and wine colored hair. He was very handsome and his torn shirt easily showed his muscular form.
When he laughed the hosts could see his tongue ring flash and all of his piercings shone in the light of the sun. Ichi quickly tossed him his helmet and they could see 'Sky~' and a wand in blue on opposite sides of it. He tossed Ichi her own helmet with the same 'Foxy~' on it, but now they could see the flirty looking fox on the other side.
Before they sped off, Ichi turned back and waved. At that time, Arc-en jerked the bike and she squeaked before clinging to his waist. Some laughed and waved back while others nodded or didn't respond at all.
"He seems way better than that Fusei jerk so we approve!" The twins cheered.
"Mon ami looks like she's having fun so I approve as well…" Tamaki smiled.
"He didn't say anything to me when we rode to school today, but he seems nice enough…" Haruhi thought out loud.
"Hmm…" Mori just hummed really. He wasn't sure what to think or feel about the guy.
"I wonder if he likes cake?" Hani asked while hugging his Usa-chan.
Everyone looked at Kyouya who was now sitting on a bench and typing away on his laptop.
"Arc-en D'sorcellerie, or Sky Of Sorcery. Age eighteen, he's five foot nine, his hair is naturally black but he bleached and dyed his tips a wine-like magenta color. He is the nephew of Sheila, but he lives with her only occasionally. His parents disowned him for… Reasons unspecified..?" Kyouya was confused but didn't show it.
"Otherwise lives with his grandparents. He shares a lot in common with Ichi and has known her for a very long time. He seems like an ok guy so I have no reason to dislike him… Yet." Kyouya finished. The others nodded while Kyouya got up and they all started to head to the cafeteria once more.
"Did you all hear his name? It's French!" Tamaki gushed while bouncing around like a hyper child. "I wonder why he doesn't have a friendship bracelet though..?" This peaked the other's interest as they all looked down at their arm bands. Now that they looked, they were numbered by tails…
Tamaki had one tail, Kyouya two, Haruhi three, Hikaru four, Kaoru five, Hani six, and Mori seven. Haruhi looked confused at the numbers though.
"Ichi has a head and nine tails on her band though… Maybe he does have an arm band but he's number eight..?" The hosts all nodded and soon they were all seated for lunch.
"Who knows~?"
"Who cares~?" The twins replied while looking bored. Lunch passed with the usual annoyances and everything seemed back to normal. They waited outside for Ichi to return and were shocked when they saw her driving the bike back into the school.
"MON AMI! YOU SHOULDN'T BE RIDING SUCH A DANGEROUS VEHICLE! YOUR BROTHER DEMANDS YOU TO STOP RIGHT NOW!" Tamaki yelled while flailing about. Arc-en flipped off the bike and made Ichi do a wheely before going to the ground again with a laugh.
"Uh oh!" Ichi laughed when she saw Arc-en pull his helmet off and toss it to Haruhi. She caught it and looked nervous trying to decide what to do now. Arc-en grabbed Tamaki's shirt collar and looked him in the eyes.
"He's dumb, but he honestly means everything he says… He's alright with me…" Tamaki nearly fainted when Arc-en let go of him. "But, if he keeps telling you what to do, I might have to have a talk with him…" Ichi ran over with her helmet already off and helped Tamaki up.
"Now, Arcy, be nice! He's Mon Ami! I told you about the hosts! Oh, and Hitachiin-sama's? Never text back if it isn't me…" She glared playfully in their direction and they smiled sheepishly.
"Fine… The name's Arc-en but you all can call me Arcy…" He looked over at Mori. "Hey that's Tallness! Aunty Sheila told me about you to~" He teased. Mori glared slightly and Arc-en looked confused before sticking his hand out.
"You're a good man Morinozuka-san…. I am forever grateful to you for keeping Foxy safe…" Mori hesitantly shook his hand and Arc-en didn't squeeze it like he thought he would. He just lightly shook his hand and spun back around to face Ichi.
"Oh boy… Time for the dramatics right?" Ichi deadpanned. Arc-en quickly spun her around and dipped her before bringing her back up.
"Why of course Mon amour! Our parting is such sweet sorrow~ I will see you after hosting, correct?" (My love) Ichi nodded. "Ok! Au revoir Mon Amour! Je t'aime!" (Good bye my love! I love you!)
"Haha, Au revoir Mon Ami! Je t'aime aussi!" (Also) Ichi waved goodbye as he drove off down the rode. Tamaki had tears in his eyes and glomped Ichi.
"How come you never tell me you love me? I'm your friend and your brother!" He wailed. Ichi laughed and patted his head.
"Je t'aime Rene!" She said and he cheered while hugging her a little tighter. "Besides, I love all of you! You all will always have a special place in my heart, I've just known Arcy longer!" The twins and Hani hugged her this time as well.
"Does Arc-chan have a friendship bracelet too?" Hani asked. Ichi's smile quickly flashed to a frown before she put on another smile.
"No, Arcy and I have another thing we do…" She had a sad and lost look in her eyes as she spoke without thinking. "The eighth tail will forever belong to Maman…" They smiled at the thought before Ichi walked back into the building. Once inside, Ichi grabbed her heart in pain. "Even after she's gone…" She choked out before another sob silently choked her. She went into the club room and leaned against the pillar closest to the door.
"Quit Ichi… Everything's going to get better… Mori-senpai said so! Ah! It hurts…" She moaned. Ichi regained her breath and her heart stopped hurting soon after. She quickly made her way to class, and apologized for being late.
Music class was finally done being set up for tomorrow and the ones who had helped, especially Ichi, were proud with their large ensemble of instruments. They got to leave class early for their hard work, so after Ichi escaped from the girls in there, she made her way to the club to hopefully get ready quicker.
She changed into an all black and grey outfit… Black skinnies, converse, a grey silk dress shirt, and a long black trench coat with grey buckles instead of buttons. A straightener was lying over on a counter in front of a mirror and she got an idea. She heated it up and straightened her bangs out to make a spiky look with a fringe in front. She then put on some dark make up around her eyes and added black lipstick to bring out her pale face and amber eyes.
She looked amazingly dark, but she was missing the prince part… Until she saw it…
It was a little crown on a wire headband that would blend into her hair so that it looked like the crown was floating. She put it on and admired the black and grey colors that surrounded her glowing amber eyes. She walked out of the room and into the actual hosting area, just in time to…
"Oof!" Run into the light prince. Tamaki was dressed in the exact opposite fashion. White and blue were his colors and he wore a white and blue crown on the opposite side of his wavy blonde hair. A kingly robe was around his person and he even had a staff.
"Haha, sorry Rene! I didn't see you there! Hey, where's my staff?" She joked. He helped her up before tossing her a dark staff with grey bat wings on the side of the ball on top.
"Hiya Tallis! Sorry, I was just coming to bring it to you!" He said while twirling his own staff. Ichi smiled faintly at him before they all got in their positions.
"Mon ami! Come sit with me on my throne for today!" Tamaki called. Ichi looked up with a surprised face but blushed and quickly shook her head and hands.
"Non Merci Mon Ami! I couldn't do that! You're the white prince, I'm just an extra! Please, Ah! I shouldn't be wearing this… Or using this…" Ichi freaked while removing her crown and putting her staff on a table. She kept flitting about the room trying to make herself look less princely but Tamaki snapped his fingers.
"Mori-senpai… Hold her still…" Mori immediately picked her two feet off the ground. She froze up and blushed embarrassingly.
"Thank you! Now Tallis, if you don't listen to me, how can I be called a king?" The hosts looked puzzled at the word he had used before his question, but he didn't explain. Ichi's face softened and she frowned.
"Je regrette Rene… Je regrette…" (I'm sorry, I'm sorry) He placed her crown back on her head, fixed her hair, and handed her the cane before Mori set her down.
"Now come over here and sit with me Mon Ami!" He commanded. Ichi jumped and hurried to sit side by side with him while Kyouya eyed her with a hint of sadness in his eyes. "Wrap your arm around mine, and that foot… Now smile!" Ichi did as she was told and soon the door handle jiggled.
"Welcome!" They all sounded at the same time. Kyouya looked over at Ichi once more to see the absolute trust in her eyes as she stared at Tamaki.
'She'll do anything for a chance at a real family… Or just an ounce of love from those near her…' He thought. Kyouya would have to keep more tabs on the people around her… After all, she was a lot like him in some ways…
Later, right before Ichi goes to bed;
Ding! Ichi's phone went off beside her. She tiredly flipped it open and read the message from Kaoru.
'From, Kaoru:
So how long has that Arc-en guy been your boyfriend?'
She looked at the message confusedly before replying.
'From, Ichi:
What do you mean? Arcy's not my boyfriend! Ha! I'll tell you a secret if you can keep it!'
On the other end, Kaoru looked at his sleeping brother before quickly replying an 'Ok?' Ichi smiled sheepishly while replying to the message.
'From, Ichi:
Arc-en's gay! That's why he lives with other family… PLEASE! Don't tell Hikaru! I will owe you somehow if you don't! Goodnight Kaoru~'
He didn't reply back as he quickly deleted the messages and turned off his phone. He was shocked at the news, but looking back on it, it made sense… Ichi didn't wait up either as she too, deleted the messages before turning her phone off. They both fell asleep with one thought on their minds.
'We've got a secret~!'
Ending it here! Next will be a twist on the beach chapter! Will Arcy come, or not? You'll have to wait and find out! Thank you all for reading, and please review!
