I walk to school the next day. When I lock the apartment I see Haruhi come out of the one next to mine. "Yo Haru-chan!" She turns around, "Salet-chan! I didn't know you lived her!" "Hey ditto girly. How bout we walk to school together." She smiles, "Sounds good. Listen Scarlet I'm really sorry about yesterday. But I should give you a far warning, their not gonna give up until you decide to join." "Why? What's so special about me? There like 20,000 other girls at that school." She laughs a little, "Well I don't know how they think but you and Tamaki have a lot in common with your pasts." I stop and hold my head down, "I have nothing in common with a pretty rich boy. Trust me." She cracks a smile, "You called him pretty." "Eh?" She rolled her eyes, "Let's just go."

First class sucked because Hikaru and Kaoru. Kaoru leaned over and handed me a note. I sighed and opened it. "Will you join the Host Club?" I take out my pencil and write "No. Not now not ever." And I hand it back to him. Hikaru hands me one 'Why not?' 'Just because.' "You're no fun." 'I know, not leave me alone.' The first bell rang and I stood up walking out. I trot down some stairs and into a courtyard. I lie down on the bench and put my headphones on. I left something tackle my stomach and I fall back off the bench. "Ow," I open my eyes to see Hunnie-sempia. "Hey Hunnie, hi Mori what are you guys doing here?" Hunnie smiled really big, "We came here to ask you to join the Host Club! Isn't that right Takashi?" "Yeah," Mori says putting Hunnie back on his shoulders. "Look guys I would love to but I'm not going to." Hunnie got big sad eyes, "Why not Salet-chan!" I sigh, "I'll tell you later okay? I have to go right now."

"Scarlet," I hear Kyouya call from behind me. "Kyouya-sempia, I thought you were a 2nd year." "I am but upper and lower classes have the same electives." "I see," I said. Right now I was in art drawing. I had finally finished my sketch of the Host Club's doors. Kyouya smirked, "Please Scarlet, you and I both know you want to join." I grit my teeth, "No I don't…" He smirks wider, "Then why did you hesitate?" I slightly shrug looking up at him, "No reason." I answer but it sounds a lot more timid than I meant it to sound. "Right, well you will join eventually Miss Rouge," he calls as he's walking off. He turns back to look at me, "You can count on that."

I stand outside waiting for Haruhi. It flashes lightning and I smile, but my smile quickly fades when it stares pouring rain. I stay glued in my stop, terrified of storms. A limo pulls up and the door opens I feel the rain stop and an umbrella is over me. It continues to drench who ever is holding the umbrella over me. I'm shaking now because I'm scared and cold from the rain. "Well now we can't have you go home by yourself can we? Allow me to escort you back home." I squint because I faintly know that voice, "S-s-Souh?" He smile and gives a chuckle, "Please just Tamaki, let's get you out of this rain." He opens the door of the limo and I hop in. He follows after and tells the driver how to get back to my place. "H-how'd you k-know that?" "Kyouya told me you lived beside Haruhi. What were you doing out there?" "Waiting on he-him. Waiting on him why were you out there?" "I was on my way home when I saw you. Scarlet, your scared of storms arnt you?" I freeze, "Uh n-no. I was just waiting for Haruhi is all." I know he's not convinced but he asks, "Why won't you join the Host Club?" I shrug not wanting to say anything to him. The limo stops and I stand up, "Thank you Tamaki." I run out and to my house. I see Haruhi waiting; she runs over ad hugs me, "I'm sorry I left early today! I'm just so scared of storms-." "Me too, but Tamaki helped." She led me back to her house, "Well come on. You can stay with me tonight. My dad has work so it'll just be us." I give her a tiny smile, "Thank you Haruhi." She smiles until thunder cracks and we both run inside.
