Here is the next chapter. I got it out sooner than I expected though. I hope you enjoy it!

I do not own Ouran High School Host Club. It is proporty of Bisco Hatori.


Everything was so peaceful. The courtyard was enveloped in a warm kiss from the sun; the birds were belting out love songs to one another and a light wind gently played with the emerald leaves that hung from the trees. The court yard that had been featured at the Host's Clubs Sakura viewing festival was so beautiful. Suddenly, a gust of wind swept in thousands of cherry blossoms. The trees changed from emerald to pink in a second. Lose petals floated around the yard, filling it with the light scent that only sakura could claim. And there, standing in the middle of it all was a man with such dark hair a shadow would be jealous. His glasses reflected the sunlight off of them, hiding his cool, shaded, grey eyes. As my leg dared one step towards him, a loud beeping noise started blasting in my ears.

I opened my eyes and saw Haruhi reaching over to turn off her alarm clock. Wait? Haruhi? Where am I?

"I'm sorry. Did I wake you?" The girl asked. Right, I got sucked into the world of Ouran Academy.

"I'm fine." I said with a yawn. "What time is it?"

"Six fifteen."

"Oh, okay."

"Are you going back to sleep?"

"No, I usually get up at six thirty so it's no problem." I push myself up off my stomach and into a sitting position. "So what are the plans for today?"

"School. What else would you do on a Saturday?"

"Saturday? School? Does not compute."

"What do you mean?"

"In Canada we don't have school on Saturday or Sunday. We get both days off every week."

"How do you get all of your school work done each year?"

"I think schools have less content in their subjects for students to learn. So in turn, we have less schooldays. So..." I started to look around the room for the pile of stuff I had set aside for the night. "Where are my clothes?"


"I'm sorry my dad put your stuff in the wash." Haruhi apologized for the second time this morning as we walked to Ouran.

"It's fine. They needed to be cleaned anyway. Thanks for lending me some of your stuff."

"It's no problem. I'm just glad I was able to find something that would fit you."

"So....Haruhi....do you know....what type of women Kyoya likes?"

"Kyoya-sempi? Hmm...Well wouldn't it make more sense to ask Kyoya that himself?"

"Never mind." I let my head drop down. This was going to be harder than I thought. Maybe Haruhi does know, but she just won't tell me so she can have him all to herself. No, bad Stacy. Haruhi is cannoned with Tamaki. Kyoya could still...be mine.


"Haruhi! There you are-why is Stacy wearing your clothes?" Tamaki greeted as we arrived. I looked down at the tattered old pull over that Haruhi had lent me. It was the same one that she had own when she found the Host Club.

"My stuff was put in the wash. It was either borrow something from Haruhi, or come here naked. Honestly I prefer this as apposed to losing every ounce of my dignity."

"Well that does make sense." Kaoru said.

"She would have been kicked off the grounds if she came here like that." Hikaru finished. I think they both missed my point but none the less, they too had a point.

"You know, I won't be able to just 'show up' at Ouran uninvited much longer."

"She is correct." Kyoya stated while writing in his book. Did he just carry that around to look like he's busy or something? "We need to come up with a reason for a commoner from Canada to be coming to the school for the next little while."

What am I? The 'Canadian Commoner' now?

"But it will only be until we can get Stacy back with her group. So don't start getting to attached to us."

"I wouldn't dream of it." My voice full of sarcasm. Kyoya is really cold....

"So what should we do Kyo-chan?" Honey asked.

"We should see if we could pass her off as a relative of one of the students. But we can save that for later during Club meeting." Kyoya answered.

"What am I supposed to do 'til then?"

"Just hang around the school." The twins said as everyone headed off to class.

"Why do I suddenly have abandonment issues?" Basically I found one of the libraries and just sat in there reading the whole day. I didn't even know I could read Japanese. This must be the effect of me going through some sort of wormhole in the space time continuum. At lunch Haruhi tracked me down and we ate together out by the statue from yesterday. Soon it was time for the Host Club to meet.

"Here, I printed a map of the school off for you." Haruhi said as we walked to the third music room.

"Thanks. Now maybe I won't get lost on my way to the bathroom anymore." We opened the doors to the Host Club where I was attacked by a bunny-loving, cake-eating, pixie. I quickly use the centrifugal force to spin my self as well as Honey before setting him down.

"Wow. She sure knows how to handle Honey-sempi." Kaoru speculated.

"Stacy-chan do you want some cake?" The pixie asked.

"Of course I would honey-sempi! I love cake!" I said with a bright smile. Honey grabbed my arm and lead me over to the table where Takashi and a large cheesecake was sitting. So Honey and I started on the cake while the rest of the Host Club began to discus my situation.

"Well we can't let her walk around in that for the rest of her stay in Japan." Kaoru said.

"Of course not gentlemen!" Tamaki said while in his infamous pose he goes into when he has a plan. "Which is why tomorrow we'll take her shopping for some proper clothing!"

"Why do I get the feeling this is going to get expensive?" I called out to the others. I just knew that I was going to end up with a massive debt to the Host Club.

"It probably will, so we'll just add what ever we spend onto Haruhi's debt." Kyoya said from behind his laptop.

"Gahh!" The poor girl cried.

"Sorry Haruhi." I said.

"Kyoya!" The King yelled. "How could you be so heartless to a girl who had come to Japan only to end up with nothing but unfortunate experiences?" The foolish King slid over and took my hand in his and said, "Je suis désolé de lui ma dame*."

"You're speaking French, right?"

"Yes. Don't Canadians know French?"

"Not all of them. Only those in the eastern Provinces really speak it. I'm from the west. The most I know is Bonjor, je m'appelle** Stacy."

"Oh, I see then. So Canada isn't as French as France is." Tamaki assumed his depress position off in the corner.

"Um...well everything to the east is in French. Especially in Quebec." Tamaki cheered right up.

"Then I will go to this 'Quebec' and see it for myself!" Tamaki is going to be the death of me. Ignoring Tamaki I went back to my cake.

"I didn't know that Canada was part French." Honey exclaimed.

"Yeah, well don't get too excited like Tama-sempi over there. By the way, I'm curious about the plan to sneak me into the school. We still haven't gone over it."

"Why I believe I have an idea...." A very creepy voice said from behind a large, dark, medieval style door. A guy with a black cloak was poking his head into the club room.

"Nekozawa-sempi." Haruhi said. "What are you doing here?"

"Maw-hahahaha. I heard the Host Club came across a lost kitten yesterday."

"Oh, so I'm a cat now? What happened to being a gaijin***?" I said, plopping another piece of cake into my mouth.

"What are you talking about Nekozawa-sempi?" Hikaru asked. With little Belzenef rubbing his paws together, Nekozawa told us of his plan.

"We could pass her off as my cousin. Maw-hahaha."

"But you two looking nothing alike." Tamaki countered in a weak voice. "And how do we know that Stacy could pull it off?" Nekozawa turned off all the lights so that only the flame from a single candle illuminated the room. The then pulled off his cloak and wig to reveal his face. Tamaki wasn't watching though because this WAS Nekozawa. The President of the Black Magic Club had short blond hair and blue eyes, just like mine. I pulled off my glasses and took the only thing that had made the transfer to this world, aside from my watch and necklace, my glasses cloth and cleaned my spectacles.

"This would never work." I said. But my words fell of deaf ears. Everyone was staring at me in shock. "What?"

"Y-you look..."Tamaki tried to speak.

"You and Nekozawa could pass for brother and sister." The twins said. I looked back over at the 'Shadow Prince'. He did look a lot like me.

"If you say so. So why are you deciding to help me Nekozawa?"

"Because when I saw you yesterday, I could sense a deep, inner darkness about you."

"She's like a ball of sunshine." Kaoru said.

"No way would she ever-" The second twin started to say when I interrupted.

"Wow, not many people get that about me right away. I'm impressed." Everyone but Kyoya and Nekozawa looked shocked.

"So it's settled then, we'll pass you off as my visiting cousin." The human shadow said as he replaced his cloak and wig before leaving. Once he left the room the lights came back on.

"Well he seems like a nice guy." I said. I looked over to the corner of the room where the Hosts stood, dumbfounded. "What? You all look like you've seen a ghost."

"Ah, well we never would have suspected you to get along so well with Nekozawa." Tamaki admitted.

"Tamaki, every one has a dark side. It's just that I happen to have two."

"What do you mean Stacy-chan?" Honey asked.

"I have my cynic side which is normal for me, and then I have my newly discovered evil side."

"Evil side...." Tamaki was not taking this well.

"You'll meet her in due time Tamaki. But be warned. She's unlike anything you've ever faced before. By the way, isn't it about time you guys opened the Host Club for business?"

"Yes, you are right." The King said, regaining his composure. "So will you be requesting Kyoya again today?"

"I think I'll request Honey-sempi today. If you don't mind that is."

"Not at all Stacy-chan! You have to try to Angel food cake. Doesn't she Tama-chan?"

"Let me guess, it's heavenly? Hey Tamaki, could you bring me some milk. All this cake is getting me thirsty." I smile sweetly up at him.

"That was so cute!" Tamaki spazzed out, grabbed me, and spinning around like he did with Haruhi in episode 1.

"Ah! Personal space! PERSONAL SPACE! Ahh!" And just like with Haruhi, Takashi sprang into action and gently pulled me out of Tamaki's grasp.

"Um...Light." Was all Mori had to say.

"You can put me down Takashi." I said. When my feet did touch the ground I quietly added. "Arigato Mori-sempi." I looked up at him with soft, sincere eyes.

Is it just me, or does she know how to handle everyone here in the Host Club? Haruhi asked herself.


The Ouran Host Club is now open for business.

And like yesterday, no cosplay. Phooey.

"So Haruhi, I hear the Host club had made a new friend." One of Haruhi's regulars asked.

"Yes. Nekozawa's cousin came over to Japan for a visit. She wondered into the club room yesterday so we've been keeping her company while Nekozawa runs the Black Magic Club."

Wow, Haruhi has mastered the art of deception. But then again, so have I...

"Honey, Mori, can you guys keep a secret?" The former was nodding his head so much I thought it'd fall off while the later gave a subtle nod. They were polar opposites.

"What is it Stacy-chan?" Mitsukuni asked.

"I think I have a plan to get Kyoya to fall in love with me. Do you guys want to hear it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Honey was very excited by all this.

"Okay. But you can't tell anyone. Got it?" They both nodded only once this time.

"Well you both saw how I was flirting with Kyoya yesterday. Right?"

"Umhm." Honey nodded.

"Well, for the next few days I'm going to ignore him and see what happens. So if it looks like I'm host hopping, I'm just trying to get Kyoya's attention. But don't tell anyone about this. Agreed?"

"Yep!"

"Um." That could have meant anything but I took it as a yes.

"So Kyoya, what do you think about our guest, Stacy?" Tamaki asked his dear friend while between guests. "She seemed to be pretty in to you yesterday."

"Why should I care? It's obvious that she was putting on a show to make someone jealous. Besides how do you explain her reason for choosing Honey-Sempi today?"

"Ah well....I'm not sure. I'm sorry I bothered you Kyoya."

What an unusual person. The Shadow King thought as he looked over at Stacy. She became a different person in the blink of an eye depending on who was talking with her. Somewhat like him...


The Ouran Host Club is now closed for today.

"So it is agreed that we will all meet at the Fujioka residence tomorrow for commoner shopping?" Tamaki asked.

"Sure." The twins said.

"I have no problems with it." Kyoya said from over his laptop.

"Takashi and I will be there too!" Honey called.

"I can't believe they are all making such a big deal out of this." Haruhi whispered to me.

"Same here. Do you think we'll survive tomorrow?" I asked the cross-dresser.

"I have no idea."

"We're doomed." The two of us said together.


*Je suis désolé de lui ma dame-French for 'I am sorry about him my lady'. (there was translation issues.)

**Bonjor, je m'appelle Stacy-Freanch for 'Hello, my name is Stacy'.

***Gaijin-Japanese for 'outsider'.
