Chapter 7 – Welcome to the Host Club

Wow, I haven't updated in ages... I'm sorry! I'm gonna write a small chapter next, so it should be up soon!

I don't know if what I have written about the dances is correct so I'm sorry if the information is wrong – please correct me if you know I am wrong (It's a ballroom dancing competition by the way). I got all the dances from Strictly Come Dancing...

I don't own anything you recognise...

Thanks to all my wonderful reviewers! You guys all rock!

The time passed quickly. I watched as all the Hosts, wearing suits of armour, welcomed their customers into the room and I observed all of their hosting styles and techniques. I didn't want to get involved so I just sat at the side and thought about what I was going to say to them after about the question they wanted answering. I had the answer planned out though so I needed something else to occupy my mind. I decided to go over my guitar piece, I hadn't played it in ages but I knew it off by heart. After I was certain I wouldn't make a mistake, I just carried on listening to music and before I knew it, the Hosts were waving goodbye to their guests and they started clearing up. I decided to help because I had nothing better to do. Soon everything was cleared away and everyone was back in their normal uniforms.

We sat around in a circle and Tamaki started the 'meeting'.

'The Host Club has been chosen to represent the school in a dance competition so we should all do our best to win! So, what dances did you all pick?'

'I got a Waltz.' (Kyoya)

'I have a Jive!' (Hunny)

'Quickstep...' (Mori)

'I have a Samba.' (Hikaru)

'I have a Cha Cha Cha.' (Kaoru)

'I have the Paso Doble.' (Haruhi)

'And I have the Tango!' (Tamaki)

'Okay, well, we all have to find a suitable dance partner! Now there is already a partner available (he gestured at me) so who would like to partner with Kiyoshi?'

Everyone started talking at once. It seemed they all wanted to partner with me. No one wanted to have to find a partner.

'Okay, since everyone wants to be with Kiyoshi, Kiyoshi, you decide...'

Oh great! I was gonna have to decide and see their feelings hurt when I didn't choose them. I hated choosing things... I decided to be logical about it so they would be let down easily.

'Well, I suppose a male dance partner should be slightly taller than the female... So we are roughly about the same height...'

This took out Hunny Senpai and Haruhi as they were shorter than me. And Mori Senpai, Tamaki Senpai and Kyoya Senpai were way taller than me. That left... the twins... Great! Now how was I supposed to choose out of them?

'Well, that means you have to dance with me or Kaoru...' Hikaru said.

'Yeah...'

I couldn't decide and they were looking at me expectantly. I got it!

'Well, okay, I'm quite good at dance, so I can do most dances. Which one of you has the harder dance? It will be easier for the other person to find a partner for an easier dance...'

Kyoya Senpai stepped in, 'Yes, that is true and Kaoru's dance is statistically harder than Hikaru's. (AN: Don't know if this is true... sorry if it isn't). So I guess you're partnered with Kaoru then...'

'Yeah, I guess I am...'

'Right men! We all have to find our partners so make sure you look out for ladies that can dance and it helps if you get along with them too! I suppose that concludes our meeting. We will meet after the Host Club every day to discuss our progress and to practice.' Tamaki announced.

'Kiyoshi, the Host Club closes at 5, just so you don't have to wait around. You can go home and come back again.' Kyoya Senpai told me.

'Thanks Senpai, I guess i'll go then.'

I looked out the window and saw that it was raining. I sighed to myself; I had forgotten my umbrella because I was late that morning. I grabbed my bag and started heading to the door.

'Kiyo Chan, wait!'

I turned around to face Hunny Senpai.

'You said you would play us something on your guitar!'

I had totally forgotten about that because of the pressure of having to choose a partner.

'Oh yeah! I'll play it for you another time, okay? It's just that I have to get home before it starts to rain more. I forgot my umbrella and I don't want to get sick...'

'Oh... Yeah, that's okay, I guess. Just make sure you play for me sometime though...'

'Of course I'll play for you, I promise, just on a day when it isn't raining.'

I started for the door again.

'Don't you have a car to pick you up?'

I turned back around to face Hikaru (I think it was anyway).

'Well, yeah, I guess. But my Dad doesn't want me to use it. You know the whole 'we're commoners' thing. Plus, I suppose my house isn't that far away...'

'Oh... okay. See you tomorrow then!'

'Bye...'

Everyone waved to me and said 'bye'. At last I left the room and got to the entrance of Ouran Academy. I looked up at the sky then ran through the rain back to my house.

When I got home, I was soaking wet so I changed into some dry clothes then went to find my Dad.

'Daaaad! Why did you tell them I was good at dancing? You know I don't like to do these things!'

'Kiyoshi, you can't hide forever! I want you to do this to become more confident. Trust me Kiyoshi, you'll thank me later.'

'Whatever...' I mumbled.

I went up to my room and found my drum sticks. Playing the drum was stress relief to me and as I sat playing, I started to feel better. I picked up my guitar and rehearsed my first composition. Then I decided to go to bed, so I would feel refreshed and in a good mood the next day. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad, being in a dance competition...

Sooo, what do you think? Review please! If you would like me to change anything please say... If you have any suggestions or requests please tell me and i'll try fit them into the story!
