Here's the next chapter! Hope I didn't make any mistakes here ehehehe.
Pension Misuzu
Lobby
8:30 a.m.
"Haruhi's middle school friend?" Kyouya said as he sat on a table with Mori and Hani away from Haruhi and her friend, Arai.
"I'd call him former middle school classmate." Hikaru said icily.
"What's up with you, mister grumpy?" Suzu set a glass of lemonade in front of Hikaru and patted his head.
Hikaru: *pouts* "I'm not grumpy…" *sips lemonade*
"Thanks for the lemonade, Suzu-sempai." Kaouru said trying to cover up Hikaru's nasty mood.
Suzu gave Mori, Hani and Kyouya their share of the lemonade "*giggles* Just make sure he feels better."
"Hai!" Kaouru said in a sing–song voice "Hear that, Hika-"
Hey Haruhi, do you think you can just stop working like that?! Hey! Someone's slacking off here!
"Misuzu-san gave me a break, Hikaru." Haruhi scolded "Ah. Thanks, Suzu-sempai."
"Just ignore Hikaru." Suzu whispered playfully after she set a glass for Haruhi and Arai "He seems to be in a bad mood."
"Yeah. I guess I should" Haruhi said with her usual bored expression "Sempai, what are you doing?"
Tamaki started stripping sheets of paper in to the ground "I'm making a hamster home…"
"But you don't have a hamster, sempai."
"I'm not your sempai. I'm just someone you know."
"Honestly, Tamaki-kun." Suzu set a glass of lemonade on the floor beside his "nest" "You should choose your instructions more carefully next time if you're going to end up like this."
Suzu walked over to Mori's side just as Hikaru said something rude towards Arai.
"Kaouru, please control your brother." Suzu scolded.
"Sorry!" Kaouru defended "It's just that-"
Well actually, I did have a crush on Fujihoka-san. But I was already dumped.
.
.
.
"Whaaaat?!" everyone screamed.
Right after the flashback about Haruhi "dumping" Arai, her "police interrogation" and some heart-to-heart bonding…
SLAP!
"I can't tolerate you for insulting my friends like that!"
"But we're your friends, too!"
"Oh boy…" Tamaki sighed as the twins ran upstairs "They're still so narrow-minded."
"Takashi-kun." Suzu pleaded.
"It's all right." Mori nodded.
Suzu ran upstairs after the twins.
Pension Misuzu
2nd Floor
Hitachiin Brothers' Room
*knock* *knock* "It's me."
"Come on in, Suzu-sempai." Kaouru called out.
"For how long have you been standing out there, Sempai?" Hikaru asked glumly.
"A while."
"How much did you hear?"
"I think you should ask me how much didn't I hear."
"*sigh* You're not gonna tell, are you?" Hikaru said finally looking at her straight.
"Nope. Not telling a single soul." Suzu reassured "But I am telling Takashi-kun that I saw another man half- naked."
"Eeeeeeehh??"
Hikaru lay naked under the sheets exposing only his upper body while Kaouru changed into Hikaru's clothes.
"Well, I'm going to apologize to Arai-kun now." Kaouru said as he left.
"So." Suzu lay her hand on Hikaru's head "Why don't you cool off for the time being? I'll keep you company."
Hikaru nodded and lay back on the bed playing his video game while Suzu sat on the edge of his bed both silent.
Karuizawa Streets
The Next Day
2:00 p.m.
"I think the Ice Cream did smooth things out."
"No. It didn't."
Kaouru apparently asked Haruhi on a date but then he got "sick" and asked Hikaru to go instead.
Now, the entire Host club (the ones that are left anyway) is out "keeping an eye" on the progress.
"Let's head back. If we blow our cover now, everything will go down the drain." The "sick" Kaouru suggested.
"Yeah. Let's." Suzu agreed
"But Suzu-sempai." Kyouya looked at Suzu up and down "Why are you dressed like that?"

(KhAeL: Sorry for just the pic of the outfit you guys! I have a drawing of Suzu wearing it but I didn't get the time to color and clean it! So sorry! Oh, and she's wearing hair extensions just like Haruhi only hers isn't bundled up and instead, flowing. Making it appear as if she has long hair that reaches her lower back. Hope you saw the Karuizawa episode of OHSHC! And if it isn't showing in this story, check my profile! The link is there with the descrip.)
"*blush* I-I don't really know…" Suzu sheepishly said "Kaouru had his maids dress me up just after they finished with Haruhi and they didn't tell me why… Kaouru, why am I dressed like this?"
"That's 'coz you're going on a date with Mori-sempai." Kaouru said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Wh-what?" Suzu and Mori said in union.
"When Suzu-sempai went on a date with Kyouya-sempai, Mori-sempai seemed so upset." Kaouru started explaining "So I thought "since Hikaru and Haruhi are going on a date, why shouldn't Mori-sempai and Suzu-sempai go on one as well? They're gonna get married anyway." You see what I mean?"
Mori: *blushing but not making it obvious* *twitching*
Suzu: *blushing unknowingly making it really obvious* *twitching*
"And I kinda feel guilty about conspiring with Hani-sempai at that time." Kouru cheekily grinned "So go on now! Don't let us stop you! Shoo! Shoo!"
Kaouru pushed everyone away leaving Mori and Suzu alone.
"Well" Suzu said still shaky "I guess we can't do anything about this now can we?"
"Yeah" Mori said snapping out of the shock "You're right."
"So where do you want to go next?"
They spent the past hour looking around and shopping for sweets and souvenirs for everyone. Mori had to hold five boxes stacked together and bound with a rope in each hand all filled with different kinds of sweets Suzu thought Hani would love. All that and at the same time, avoiding Hikaru and Haruhi.
"I'm really sorry about that" Suzu apologized after they both sat on a bench to rest "I just thought Mitskuni and the others would like to have a taste."
"It's fine." Mori lifted her chin "You look like you enjoyed yourself. Isn't that the whole point of this date?"
"Thank you. For everything." Suzu smiled genuinely.
Mori placed a warm kiss on her forehead.
Tee heee heee…
"What was that?" Mori's ears perked up.
"It must be him…" Suzu whispered "I've felt him following us this whole time… but I didn't tell you… I'm sorry…"
Mori grabbed Suzu's wrist and their things and made a run for it "Come on."
They dashed past the crowd on the streets, turned a sharp corner and finally stopped somewhere in the outskirts of the town.
"*pant* *pant* *pant* I think *pant* we've lost him…" Suzu held a tight grip on Mori's arm as they hid behind a tree.
"I don't think so." Mori said calmly not breaking a single sweat.
'Must be the daily training.' Suzu guessed.
Just then a shadowy figured stopped on the other side of the tree also out of breath.
"I'm gonna jump him." Mori whispered.
Suzu protested "You don't have to. It' really no big de-"
"I told you I'd protect you." Mori quietly took his position.
GRAB!
Let me go you big bully you! LET GO! LET GO! LET GO!
"Wh-what?" Suzu stood from her hiding spot shocked to see the identity of her "stalker".
A small girl at about the same size as Hani (or maybe even smaller) squirmed under Mori's grasp. She had healthy reddish hair that was bound in a pig-tail- like form and wore round glasses that were too big for her.
"Takashi-kun…" Suzu said still shocked.
Mori put her down not saying a word.
"You're mean, Mister! I don't like you! I don't know why Princess wants to be with you!" the child wailed while kicking and punching Mori's waist.
"He-hello there, sweetheart." Suzu crouched down to her level "May I know your name?"
The child stopped what she was doing and turned around facing Suzu.
"*blush*… Hello, Princess… My name is Hime… tee hee…"
"It's nice to meet you, Hime. May I ask why you were following me?"
"Stop treating me like a little girl!" The child suddenly yelled "I'm 18 now! My growth hormones just haven't kicked in, that's all!"
"18?" Mori and Suzu asked in union 'Is her case like… Mitskuni's?'
"Princess is so perfect!" The "child" explained "I want to be just like her! I thought she was the same age as me. So I started following her around so I can be just like her!"
"I'm not perfect, Hime. I'm just human." Suzu smiled gently at the girl "You're very lucky, you know. That you can be so carefree like that…"
'I think she's talking about her condition…' Mori thought as he looked at Suzu.
"Tell you what" Suzu took out her cellphone "Why don't we keep in contact? DO you have a cellphone?"
"H-Hai!" Hime rummaged through her pockets taking out a cute mobile.
"I'm sure we'll be great friends, Hime. Oh and by the way, I' don't mind you calling me princess and all but my real name is Sasazuka Suzu, ok?"
"*stars in eyes* H-Hai!"
"That girl was a handful."
Mori and Suzu stayed under a bus stop shed to take shelter from the rain.
"I wouldn't say that." Suzu chuckled "I know we had to spend the rest of our date with her and bring her home but it was fun while it lasted."
"I guess." Mori put down the cake boxes and draped an arm around Suzu "Anyway, How did you hide all those *blush* *ahem* hi…ckeys?"
"*giggles* Hikaru's maids saw them when they changed me. But I made them not tell anyone." Suzu looked up at him "They used a stick concealer like the one Hikaru used to disguise himself."
"Well that's good. You don't have to wear that turtle-neck sweater you wore yesterday."
"Yeah. Everyone was asking a lot about it. Especially Tamaki."
Mori and Suzu: *blush* *laughs*
Kimino mi teru…
"Takashi, your phone is ringing."
Mori took it out and flipped it open
"Hello?... *frowns*What?... Alright."
"Something wrong?"
"Haruhi is in trouble."
Pension Misuzu
The Next Day
10:00 a.m.
"All's well that ends well, ne?" Suzu stood on the balcony that overlooked the lobby "Hikaru seems to be in a better mood now. And he's talking to Arai!"
"Looks like the date plan worked." Kaouru grinned.
"But… Did you not realize it could cause feelings of love?" Kyouya pointed out.
"It's too early for that." Kaouru looked at his twin "Hikaru's an idiot after all."
Hey! Let's cut open the watermelon together!
"Coming!" Suzu excitedly ran downstairs "Cone on you two!"
Kaouru and Kyoya: *smirk*
"Well, our club is full of idiots."
This is The End of This Chapter.
I hope you all enjoyed it.
The stalker idea © Shadowess 88
I'm really sorry that it didn't turn out the way you want it T_T but no matter how hard I try to make a thrilling and dark-mooded storyline, it never turns out well. So I'm really sorry.
And I also apologize to everyone else for not making this chap "exciting" or "hilarious".
So please tell me what you think and maybe give me some ideas that I can work with. Thank you. Critiques are also welcome.
