Hello lovely readers I would like to say thank you so much for the reviews I have 100+ now! I won the bet I told my sister I would get one hundred reviews in less than twenty chapters so thank you so much now she has to watch one episode of OHSHC. (She doesn't like anime). Oh I also posted a new POLL in my profile so go check it out if you want. Now enjoy this chapter!
Disclaimer: You know what just forget it it's already 20 years late…okay I'll say it, I do not own OHSHC.
The rest of the day passed like I wasn't even here well physically yes, mentally no. Even my mom's co-workers noticed I was acting strange. But all that was in my mind was that kiss. What had that kiss meant? Was it even on purpose? Maybe he tripped forward?
I felt a sharp pain hit my skin that brought me back to earth. "Ow" I said rubbing my arm.
"Sorry about that," one of the tailors said. I couldn't really remember why I was being measured I was still in a daze when my mom explained it to me.
"It's alright" I sighed.
"What's wrong?" she asked. Should I really tell her my problems I mean I barely know this lady and she's one of my mom friends….
"Just tired" I lied. She could probably tell I was lying. But I really didn't care I was already thinking about that kiss again. I was happy about it but at the same time I felt nervous and scared. What if he did that out of pity? Since I was already moving forward if he didn't kiss me it would have been awkward right? Ugh what if it was that! The rest of the day I kept contradicting myself on what that kiss actually meant. The thought of the kiss being out of pity was winning. I wish I had seen his face…maybe then I could have figured it out and I wouldn't be thinking about it this much...
It surprised me that my mom had let me out of work early. She said something about her staying to work late. Now I was heading back outside and it was only 1:45. The limo was already there parked in front. I walked down the stairs of the building. I saw the driver get out I wasn't paying much attention to him.
"Hey, I haven't seen you in a while." Said a very familiar voice, I looked up to see my driver grinning.
"Yeah" I said as he opened the door for me. I stepped inside he closed the door and headed to the front.
"So that's all I'm going to get one word?"
"Huh? Oh sorry it's …I really don't know." I said leaning my head against window as he started driving.
"What do you mean?" He asked concerned.
"I well um…I don't want to talk about it…" I said remembering the kiss that could have not meant anything to Mitsukuni.
"Boy problems?" He said making a turn. My eyes widened I sat up straight.
"How do you know?" I said shocked.
"Lucky guess…and I kind of saw you making out with some little kid."
"You saw! Are you stalking me? WAIT little kid!" I yelled.
"No I'm not stalking you, I have a life you know. I happen to be picking up some groceries from across that bakery and saw you in there with that kid…perv."
"HE IS NOT A KID!" I yelled. "HE'S TWO YEARS OLDER THEN ME! AND I'M NOT A PERVERT!"
"Ha ha just messing with you." He said laughing. "I know that guy isn't really a kid. He's pretty well known for his martial arts you know." He said turning back grinning at me. My fist balled up.
"I hate you!" I said getting closer to him I grabbed his shoulders and started shaking him. My eyes winded when I realized he wasn't even looking at the road.
"Hey, hey, hey! Keep your eyes on the road!" I said trying to turn him around.
"Relax…" he said leaning back leaving the wheel unattended. My mouth was gaping open as I started at him, he slowly closed his eyes about to take a nap. I leaned forward to grab the steering wheel. My lower half of my body was still in the back and my upper half at the front of the limo.
"Damn it get up you!" I yelled at him. Sure there were no cars around when he was driving but now…the street was full of them. My heart started beating faster. What the hell I never driven a car before. And I didn't want my first lesson to be from the backseat of a limo!
"If die I'm killing you!" I said dramatically as I steered.
"That makes no sense at all." He said in a sleepy voice with his eyes still closed. My jaw dropped.
"Son of a bitch get up, get up!" I yelled I wish I could take my hands off the steering wheel so I could at least punch him. My eyes widened.
"Red light, red light! Get your foot off the gas pedal!" I said in a worried voice. We were getting closer to the light and he wasn't moving his foot. Ugh that's it I took my hands off the steering wheel and began hitting him. "We're going to die because of you! All you have to do is take your foot off the gas pedal!" I whined like a little girl telling her mom to buy her a new doll. "Why are you still fake sleeping! Ahh I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"
"Hey, we passed the light already." He said.
"Huh?" I looked at the back window to see the light had turned green. I looked back to the front were he was now holding the steering wheel.
My eyebrow and upper lip twitched. "ARE YOU CRAZY WE COULD'VE DIED!" I yelled hitting the back of his head.
"Hey keep that up and I'll probably pass out" He said.
"Oh sorry I didn't know that." I said in a sympathetic voice. "Well guess what I don't care anymore!" I said hitting his head even harder. "I've had way too many near death experiences I swear I'll probably dye from a heart attack before anything else." I said leaning back on my seat.
"Well someone is living life to its fullest" He said with a chuckle.
"Right" I laughed angrily.
"Aww don't stay mad" He said turning back to face me.
"Hey turn around!" I said pointing a figure at him.
"Alright geez, someone's paranoid…"
"I have every right to be paranoid" I said glaring at him.
"Hey we're alive aren't we?" My eyes widened.
"I don't think you get how crazy that was!"
"It can get crazier." He said deviously.
"No, no more crazy" I said in a worried voice. Damn I sounded like a scared five year old….
"We're here!" He said in a cherry voice.
"Thank Kami!" I said getting out of the limo before he had the chance to get out and open my door. I was still pretty shaken up by that, my legs were still a little weak. I looked back to see him smiling, a demon smile I thought sweat dropping.
I walked to the front door, it opened before I had a chance to touch the door handle.
"Welcome home Miss Hitachiin" The twin maids said with slight blushes on their faces. Hmm I wonder were my brothers are.
"Hey" I said passing them. I was about to walk up the stairs when I heard laughter coming from the dinning room. I slowly walked towards the familiar voices. I could see the maids peaking at something inside. That was unusual why was the door to the dinning room closed? Well actually the most unusual thing here was the maids who seemed to be fighting for the small crack in the door.
"What's going on?" I said. They both jumped and turned around slowly.
"Miss Hitachiin" The one of the right said.
"We were just uh-cleaning this door. Oh look dust let's go!" The twin from the left dragged her sister off towards the supposed dusty spot.
"That was weird.." I said mumbled. I pushed open the doors to see my brothers on top of the table with their shirts off covered in cake frosting. If that wasn't bad enough Hikaru was trying to feed Kaoru a piece of cake forcefully. "Hikaru, no…" Kaoru said in a very vulnerable voice.
"What the hell…" I said.
"Oh, your not one of the maids" Hikaru said in a disappointed voice. I hung my head I was starting to feel dizzy. I put one hand on the wall to support myself from falling. This was just not right. Seeing them being overfriendly with each other on a daily basis at the Host club was one thing. But seeing them like this was something else. Uh….
"Is this what you guys do when I'm gone" I said lowly.
"Well we got bored and decided to tease the maids" Hikaru said getting off Kaoru. I still wasn't looking up at them.
"Oh come on Hanako you love cake" Hikaru said.
"Yeah almost as much as Honey-senpai" Kaoru added. At the mention of his name my face started to heat up. Memories of the kiss stared floating into my mind.
"Oh, what's this" Hikaru said lifting my face up by the chin. "Why are you blushing little sister?" He said smirking."Is it because we said something about Hone-"
"Work" I said quickly "It's been a hard day I'm-I'm just going to take a looong bath" I said.
"Hard day?" They both said in unison. "But it's barley two, way earlier than usual." They said looking at the clock. I took that chance to sneak away from them. I was barley on the third step when they came running after me.
"You won't get away that fast" Hikaru yelled from the bottom of the staircase. I started skipping steps so I would get upstairs faster. As I reached the top I saw the twin maids. I grabbed them by the shoulders and twirled them around.
"Hey have you seen my brothers" I said smirking as my brothers reached the top of the stairs. The maids swooned over them blocking them from going anywhere. I started running down the hallway. Okay that was going to buy me some time I just need to go hide in one of the guest rooms. They'll get lazy, they won't look for me for to long.
~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.
Okay it was a really bad idea to assume that. ..Who knew they had that much determination to find me? I looked up at them from the ground. They had tied a rope around me I looked at the door to see if I could make a run for it. But it even if I did get there it would be impossible to open the door when my hands are tied down…Wait why did they even do this?
"So mind explaining why you guys had to tie me up?" I asked looking back and forth between them. They shrugged. "We just liked the look on the maid's faces." They said with smirks.
"You guys are horrible" I said with an exaggerated voice full of fake horror. They looked unfazed by it. Damn…I got up and tried to balance myself out so I wouldn't fall but that was hard when you couldn't use your arms.
"We're just trying to have some fun on such a boring Saturday."Hikaru said running his had over my shoulder. His eyes were full of mischief. Hmm having fun huh that's not what they're trying to do.
"Don't you?" He said twirling me around sending me across the room spinning. Someone cached me before I fell on the ground. I looked behind me to see Kaoru smirking.
It almost matched Hikaru's. Almost...
My head snapped back to Hikaru when I heard classical music start to play. Okay I didn't know this room had a record player.
"Kaoru." Hikaru said snapping his fingers. I felt myself being twirled around again and I landed back in Hikaru's grasp. Hikaru put his hands were my hips would've been if rope wasn't on them. He started moving me side to side along with the music. My eyebrow twitched why were we ballroom dancing right now? He twirled me around pretty hard I felt sort of dizzy now.
"So, Hanako are you going to tell us who is responsible for the blush on your face?" Hikaru said. I looked away from his face. No way was he going to make me say it. He tossed me over to Kaoru. I looked him in the eye.
"You know you don't want to do this" I said trying to make the puppy eyes look but I'm not sure if I was doing right.
"Do What?" He asked starting to dance. "You have to be more specific." He said grinning. They kept on tossing me back and forth between them. The music had already stopped playing.
"Come on Hanako all this can be over if you just tell us what we want to hear." I hear them say I stumbled around a bit I was really dizzy now.
"Noo way!" I said making a run for the door. Shoot now that I'm here how do I open it? I looked back at my brothers who hadn't moved from there spots, smirking.
"Just let me go…" I said a little girl voice. "Please these ropes are hurting my arms." I pretend to flinch when I moved my arms a little.
I looked up to see Kaoru walking to me with a concerned look on his face.
"What are you doing Kaoru" Hikaru yelled.
"Look at her" He said gesturing a hand to me.
"Yeah, just look at her" Hikaru said. Kaoru looked back at me I tried to look innocent.
"Well you sure are sneaky" Kaoru said. "But I guess we can take off those awful things hurting you."
"Really!" I said excitedly.
"Yeah!" Kaoru said dragging me away from the door. As soon as the ropes were off two pair of hands started tickling my sides.
"Ha ha ha st-st-ha" I was trying to tell them to stop but I couldn't even say it all.
"Huh? What's that?" Hikaru said putting a hand behind his ear.
"We don't know what 'st' means" Kaoru said.
"But what we want to know is who you like?" Hikaru said. I felt like I was going to get tickled to death if I didn't tell them.
"Ha ha okay ha" I barely managed to say. They finally stopped and I rested one of my hands on Kaoru's shoulder. My stomach felt really weak now...I looked up to see both of their faces beaming with satisfaction.
"Okay the person I like…" I said taking a dramatic pause. "Will remain a mystery." I said running past them to the door. I grabbed the door handle and slightly twisted it before I was jerked back, I had a hard time keeping my balance and I fell on the ground luckily I wasn't the only one down here.
"You guys are never letting this one go are you?" I asked them.
"Never." They chimed from the sides next to me.
"Um Miss Hitachiin…" I looked up to see my maid.
"Hellooo~" I said in a chirpy voice still on the ground.
"You have a phone call"
"Phone call?" I said getting up. "From who?"
"From a person named Ryuku Hayashi " She handed me the phone as Hikaru and Kaoru got up.
"How boring" They whined. "We're going to the pool" They said walking towards my maid. "You can help us pick out our swimming trunks" They teased her.
"I'm sorry, I can't, I have other work to attend to." She said with a blank face. Wow at least I know one maid doesn't get all crazy over them. They walked away grumbling.
"Hello hello!" Ryuku screamed from the other side of the line.
"Oh hey I forgot about you" I said putting the phone by my ear as I walked over to the guest bed.
"Damn right you did, you haven't can't called me in the last six days.." I laughed. It was true I started calling Ryuku after I joined the Host club.
"Are you PMSing or something?" I said lying down on the bed.
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"You sound like a girl who hasn't gotten a call from her new boyfriend in like five minutes."
"Shut up, so what have you been up to? Still in that gay Host Club?"
"What it's not gay." I said."And…yeah I'm still in it..."
"Well that just sucks I can't believe you're being controlled by some rich guy."
"Well yeah he does have all this information about me it's kind of creeping me out I think he's still researching more things." I had told Ryuku everything Kyoya had told me, leaving out the part about Ryuku's criminal record which I was a little bit curious about.
"Well it can't get worse right? I mean it's not like he'll find out what you did every single day in the last three years." He said.
"I'm starting to think he can.."
"You're being paranoid"
"I heard that once already…maybe I am being paranoid."
"Really who else told you?" He asked. I explained what had happened with the chauffeur almost killing me ordeal. He laughed saying he would have done the same thing. We chatted for a little but the kiss crawled back into my mind and almost slipped out while I was talking to Ryuku. Ugh I need to tell someone but I can't tell Ryuku…
"Hey do you have Amaya's phone number?" I said twirling my hair hoping he wouldn't ask why.
"Yeah hold on" I heard rumbling before he told me her phone number.
"Alright thanks," I said.
"No problem…I have to go alright?" He said making sure I was alright with that.
"Yeah okay." I smiled.
"Ha, are you smiling?"
"Um no…" My smile just got wider.
"Don't lie I can hear you smiling."
"Okay people can't hear smiles"
"Well I can," He laughed. "Bye"
"Bye" I beamed.
"Your smi-" I hung up before he finished his sentence. I tried to fight off the smile on my face. I don't know why but I always ended up with a big cheesy smile on my face after I talked to Ryuku. I quickly called Amaya while I still had some privacy I had to tell someone about this kiss and since that one person couldn't be Ryuku, Amaya was the next person in line.
I only had to wait a few seconds before someone picked up.
"Yeah" a girl said.
"Is Amaya there?" I asked.
"Who wants to know?" She said. Yeah okay that was Amaya.
"I'm hurt you don't even recognize my own voice…" I said pretending to sound sad. She gasped.
"Okay I remember now! I was totally going to call you after that one party but-wait wait wait how did you get my phone number? ARE YOU STALKING ME!"
"What? Amaya it's me! Hana! I said saying the name she knew me by."Hey do I really sound like a dude?"
"Oh Hana! I'm sorry, no you don't! I thought you were this guy who had a very high pitched voice, you know how I like guys looking all vulnerable and-WAIT! Bitch aren't you supposed to be locked up?" She said loudly.
"What? No, didn't Ryuku tell you anything?"
"No!" She shouted I had to pull the phone away from my ear. I sighed and told her the whole story leaving out some unnecessary details I explained to her how my real name was Hanako Hitachiin.
"Ryuku that cocky bastard" She said laughing in anger. "No wonder he always had a mocking grin every time I saw him. I just knew he knew something about you but he wasn't the only one I suspected Aki and his little gang looked like they knew something too!" She kept rambling on about what she was going to do to them. I wonder if I picked the right person…
"Sorry about that" Amaya laughed she must have hear herself talking. "So what's up with you?" She asked in a different tone of voice, a calmer one.
"Well I-"
"YOU'RE PREGNET! She yelled.
"WHAT? NO!" I yelled back.
"Oh sowy" she said a little girl voice. "It's cause you said 'well I'm' and well you know I assumed…"
"No what I said was 'well I' you cut me off before I could finish."
"Oh right, right sorry..so you were saying?"
"I don't know if I should tell you anymore…" I said teasing her.
"What no you can trust me, I won't interrupt anymore." She said in a serious voice.
"Well okay…well I know you have experience in all this, so I what does a kiss mean?"
"Kyyyaa!" She screamed, this time I didn't move the phone away from my ear since I was afraid I would miss anything she would say.
"Hana you've had you're first kiss! Haven't you haven't you?" She asked. I was about to answer but she spoke again.
"With who, with who-wait don't tell me over the phone this is something that should be discussed face to face. Can you come over?"
"Well I don't think so..Hey! You should come over to my house…I'll send a…um car over." I said not to sure if we had a normal car. "Or just expect a limousine."
"A limo! Alright then, see yeah in…?"
"Twenty minutes"
"Alright bye!" She said cheerfully before hanging up. I sighed and looked over at the door well at least I told someone. Now to go find my chauffeur.
~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.
"So, you want me to go pick up one of your friends?" My chauffeur said leaning against his the limo.
"Yeah you know were this is right?" I said handing him the address. He looked at it.
"Yeah, so what does this person look like?"
"Well last time I saw her she had short her up to here" I said pointing at my neck. "Her name is Amaya you can't miss her."
"Well alright Miss Hitachiin." He grinned getting into the limo. I sighed and walked back inside I could see my brothers were now in the pool from the living room. Guess they weren't lying about that. I was glad Amaya was the only one coming over. I took out my cell phone which I rarely used and speed dialed my mom.
"Hey Hanako I'm really busy at the moment so whatever it is can you please say it quickly." My mom said in a rush.
"Uh yeah I'm having a friend over." I said.
"A friend! That's too bad I want to meet them…Well alright then I'll be home by ten the latest eleven, okay?"
"Yeah okay"
"Say hi to your brothers for me, bye."
"Okay, bye" I shut the phone and looked at the time. It was now four I slumped down on the couch. At least I could rest until Amaya got here. Ugh thinking about her made me remember what she had said. I was the only one of my friends who was the most innocent I never had a boyfriend or made out with a drunk stranger at parties like they did. But I was the only one who lived with a guy which they always liked to remind me of.
Someone rang the doorbell I sat up. "Well that was fast" I said under my breath.
"Don't get up I'll get it" My maid said. I leaned back on the couch looking out the glass door. Did that pool get bigger? I thought.
"I'll take that to the kitchen" I hear my maid say from the other room. It was unlike Amaya to bring something especially food…
"Yes, she's right over there in the living room." I got up to greet Amaya.
"Hey Ama-" My eyes widened when I saw it was Mitsukuni.
"Oh, were you expecting someone else?" He asked. I blushed looking away.
"No um I was going to um say ama get some drinks-yeah be right back take a seat." I said about to walk into the kitchen.
"There's no need for that" My maid said coming out with drinks. Oh no! What am I going to do I don't think I can handle the embarrassment what if he came back here to clear up this whole mess and tell me to forget about the kiss! No I'll tell him exactly what's on my mind I'll tell him what that kiss meant right now!
"So what brings you here?" I asked casually taking a sip from my drink. Damn. Why did I have to chicken out at the last moment…
"Oh I just brought you the cakes you left behind at the…bakery." I looked up to see a tint of pink on his cheek. He was sitting on the couch across from me.
"Oh yeah thanks…" I said blushing even more. Then the worst thing that could happen happened. THE AWKWARD SILENCE!
"…."
"…."
That's it I can't take it anymore.
"About that kiss" We both said at the same time. We both looked away why was this so hard? I felt him sit next to me I turned to face him wondering when he had gotten up.
"Hanako that kiss it meant a lot to me…." He said in a low voice.
"So it wasn't out of pity"
"What no!" He said loudly. Had I said that out loud my face got even redder.
"I wouldn't kiss you out of pity." He leaned closer to me. "I only kiss people I-" He was cut of by the doorbell ringing. I heard someone open the door.
"Wow this place is HUGE!" I heard Amaya shout.
"Yeah Amaya just keep making us look less mannered." Someone else said I recognized that voice. It was Akiko but what was she doing here? Who else had come?
"Come this way" my maid said. I couldn't believe who I saw it was Amaya, Akiko, Mai, and oh no Ryuku…
