Here is the next chapter! It is a bit longer than the rest because I couldn't find a good way to stop it for the next chapter. I hope you all enjoy!


In the morning, she was awoken by her alarm blaring. She slowly sat up and started her bath. As she soaked she heard Eugene knock and she shouted from the tub.

"I'm in the bath! The door is unlocked if you need to come in and talk to me!"

She heard the door open and she heard him walk to the edge of the bathroom. Her bathroom was separated, as his was, into two rooms. One part held her claw foot bathtub and a grand view of the garden, while the other part held the linen closet, the sink and toilet. She didn't need to worry about him peeking, she trusted him with her life.

"Lady Olivia, I fear I made a mistake."

She raised a brow and popped her head out of the water.

"What do you mean?"

He sighed and told her that he used his real last name in one of his classes and he feared that he might be found out, which would mean she would be found out. She let out a small giggle.

"Eugene, I think you're over thinking! I'm sure it will be fine. I don't think anyone in Japan has any problems with my family. We have good relations with Japan actually. Or last time I heard, we did. Mother and father wouldn't have let me come here if we didn't!"

He sighed, "I supposed you're right. I just don't want to be the reason you are thrown into danger!"

She laughed and her foot slipped. Before she knew it she was under the water. Eugene heard her laughing and then there was nothing but the sound of her going underwater. Was she being attacked?! He rushed in and she came up for a breath. She hadn't expected that, and she certainly didn't expect him to rush in. Her face went red, as did his. Luckily she was covered in bubbles, so he didn't actually see anything but her shoulders and knees.

"S-sorry!" He rushed out and she stared at where he was.

What in the world just happened?

She shook her head and rinsed off, he meant nothing by it. It was a poor time for her to slip underwater. Though, to be honest, she wasn't expecting to laugh so hard at his comment. She stood and grabbed her towel before walking out. Eugene was sitting in a chair in her room and she smiled.

"It was an accident. Plus we used to take baths together all the time when we were little so really it's nothing you haven't seen before… well… sort of."

He laughed a little and rubbed his head, "Again, I'm very sorry."

She shooed him out of her room and began getting read. Today she had chosen the color red. She picked out a brilliant red ribbon. She put her uniform on and tied half of her hair in a ponytail and left some out. She smiled and walked to the kitchen. There were scones on the table and a pour over coffee with her name on it. Eugene walked in behind her and took the other cup.

"Today is the day I ask the Host Club to help me with my upcoming projects! My first one is for the orphanage a few blocks down."

Eugene sighed, "Are you sure they'll help?"

She nodded, she was positive they would. She took some scones in a small container and headed towards the car. When they arrived at school they went about their normal routine they participated in class and spoke with their classmates. Olivia was more interested in talking to the Host Club though. She had a very important task to ask of them and she was nervous that they'd decline.

"Hello Maribelle." Tamaki said as he took his seat in front of her.

She smiled at him, "Hello Tamaki! How has your day been?"

He smiled, "Well, it's been okay. I've been thinking about what you said last night—"

"What she said?" Eugene looked at her and she smiled sheepishly.

The girls in the class all blushed and looked at Tamaki, they wanted to know what she had said to him. To her surprise a lot of the girls didn't hate her for becoming close to Tamaki in the short time she had been there. They actually said that she and him looked cute together. There were the occasional girls that would be rude and scoff at the idea. Eugene sat next to her in his seatis face said everything.

"You said you were coming to the music hall to practice, what did you mean?"

Eugene took a breath, he knew what she meant but the rest of the girls didn't. They all were still waiting.

"I, uh… I want to practice music… It is a music room after all."

She didn't want to give away too many details, but she had been wanting to play piano for a while at the school. The rooms were bigger and the sound carried nicely. She noticed when she walked to some of her classes, her footsteps echoed in a lovely way. Eugene noticed as well.

"So you do play music! I thought you were in this class to be closer to me."

She laughed and shook her head, "No not at all. In fact, why are you here?"

Before he could answer the teacher walked in and everyone took their seats. A few girls would whisper and make eye contact with her. She knew they were talking about her. She was glad no one hated her, or not that she knew at least.

The rest of the day went on, things were generally normal until lunch. The group all came and sat with them as they had started to since the first day. She liked them, the twins were fun to tease about being different as much as they tried to be similar. Haruhi held up conversations with Eugene fairly well, he rarely spoke to anyone else. Though, this lunch was a little more… alarming.

Kyoya took a seat across from Eugene. Honey and Mori sat next to Olivia, Tamaki across from Haruhi and the twins were on the other side of Tamaki. It was a little confusing today, she hadn't sat apart from Eugene in a long time. But hse didn't mind, she loved Honey.

"So I was reading last night that the future Queen of England's daughter is studying abroad."

Eugene glanced up at Kyoya and continued eating, He'd noticed, Kyoya noticed everything.

"That is interesting! Where did she go?"

He grinned slightly and adjusted his glasses.

"She came to Japan—"

Olivia laughed and everyone looked at her, she was trying to lighten the tension because she was pretty sure Eugene was about to say something rash to him. Sometimes, if he felt threatened, he'd snap and this looked to be one of those times.

"What are the odds?" She concluded.

"I heard she likes to show off and put on plays for everyone." Hikaru said as he grew board of Kyoya's conversation.

"Yeah, but she's supposed to be really pretty. I'd like to meet her one day." Haruhi added on with a genuine smile.

Eugene smiled at her, "As would I. Now what were you saying?"

She smiled, Olivia liked that Eugene made a friend. He doesn't have many, he spends a lot of him time with her.

"Oh I was telling you about this new book I started! It's called the Life of Pi."

"I love that book!" Olivia blurted out and startled Haruhi.

"Sorry, I read it a few years ago. I've tried getting Eugene to read it but he refuses for some reason…"

"I'll read it if you let me barrow it Haruhi."

Olivia looked at him confused. She had the book. Why was he asking her to borrow it? Before she could delve into the thought any further, Tamaki tapped her arm slightly.

"You asked me earlier what I play, remember in Music?"

She nodded and took a bite of the pie that Honey and Mori brought her, she smiled in delight at the sweetness of the cake.

"Yes, I wanted to know what instrument you play."

He put his fingers on his chin as though he were thinking about it, "Instead of telling you, why don't I show you?"

"Oh?"

He nodded, "Yes! Today after school!"

She laughed at his excitement, "Deal. I'll show you what I play as well. Or one of the instruments I can play."

He raised a brow, "You play several?"

She nodded happily and Honey handed her another piece of cake. She took a bite and smiled in delight again. Honey really did know his stuff when it came to sweets.

"You are from England correct?"

Kouru had slipped between Tamaki and herself. Eugene glanced over but she moved her hand to gesture she was alright, even though he was a little close for comfort. Before she could speak she felt an arm around her shoulder and it was Hikaru. She, again, made the slight gesture she was okay. A little freaked out but okay.

"You can't just crowd her like that! Have you no manners?!" Tamaki shouted and Olivia laughed.

"Yes, we are from England. It's such a wonderful place. We should all go visit one day! Eugene knows of the best places to get food! He's an expert. I know of all the cute little shops and things, Haruhi would probably enjoy that more than the rest of you guys."

"I'd like to see where you live Mari-Chan!"

She stopped and looked at him confused, "What did you call me?"

He stopped smiling and seemed a little confused as well, thinking he might have offended her.

"I'm sorry, do you not like the nickname? I thought Mari-chan was cuter than Maribelle."

She felt a lump in her throat. She didn't have any nicknames. Or nothing that stuck with her at least. The only one she has was Olive. Eugene would call her that when they were little. She felt her eyes getting a little wet and smiled.

"No, I think it's perfect. Thank you Honey."

He went back to his smiling self. Mori nodded, he was very quiet most of the time. She had hoped to get to know him a little more, one day perhaps. The twins sighed and walked to Haruhi. It was time for them all to go to class again.

After school, Olivia dragged Eugene to Music Room 3 so they could practice. She had a song she really wanted to show the group. She had a few actually. No one really was amazed at her piano playing in England because it was something she did since she was a child. She opened the doors and there were several girls in there as usual. Olivia shook her head with a smiled.

"Ah, Maribelle! Welcome! The piano is right over here."

Tamaki gracefully waved her over to the piano. She smiled and took a seat. She sat at one end and Eugene at the other.

"Are we playing Beethoven?"

She nodded, "Yes. Beethoven's 5th Symphony in C Minor Opus 67."

Tamaki raised his brow. So she wanted to practice piano? How good was she?

She nodded to Eugene and he started, she quickly picked up after him. Soon, everyone in the room was watching them play. The girls were swooning over Eugene and Tamaki was starting to like Olivia more and more. Everyone was.

Eugene and Olivia were one unit when they played. Her body swayed softly as she played, his did as well. She even closed her eyes for a few notes and kept up perfectly. She hit one wrong note and Eugene noticed, Tamaki too. She flinched a little but kept going. Once the song was over everyone clapped. Olivia's face went flush. Eugene rubbed her head and she smiled.

"I had no idea you could play like that!" Tamaki was clearly blown away.

She smiled, her cheeks still slightly red, "Yes, I can play violin as well, but I prefer piano. My parents were adamant we learned to play."

Tamaki could hardly form words and his face was slightly pink. Olivia smiled at his reaction. It was cute She'd never been around anyone that was impressed by her other than her parents and her instructor. She had a limited group of people she was allowed to socialize with. This whole ordeal was new to her in a way.

"I'm… I'm glad you all liked it." She said shyly.

Eugene pulled her to him, "You missed the same note. Luckily you can play it off, but it's pretty obvious."

She laughed a little and rubbed her head, "I know. I'll work on that section."

"Can you play more?" a girl asked and she nodded.

Olivia began to play to her heart's content; she played anything and everything that came to her head. Eugene sat and watched her. She had never really played for anyone. But she was never asked to play by a stranger before. Her willingness to accept the challenge was inspiring to him. She was growing up and he could see it. This school was doing wonders for her. She concluded what she was playing and stood, curtsied and smiled at everyone. They all were all smiling back. After a few moments everyone went back to the hosts they had been with before she started playing. Eugene took a seat and Olivia sat across from him.

"Would you like some tea?" Haruhi asked and Olivia smiled.

"Yes please, what kind do you have?"

She laughed slightly, "I'm not exactly sure what this is. But it tastes good."

"Can you show me?" Eugene asked, he loved tea and he loved making it.

"Uh, sure?" She looked at Olivia as though she were overstepping her boundaries. No one really knew their relationship other than her calling him her Guardian.

"He loves tea, he'll love to see what kind you have here." Olivia said with a smiled and took a cup form her before she left with Eugene.

"So, when are you going to tell us you're the princess?"

She took a sip and looked up, Kyoya was standing in front of her.

She wasn't smiling anymore. She looked at him, not with anger or hate but with curiosity. She didn't know how he found out or why he hadn't told anyone.

"Why are you pushing this so hard? Why don't you just leave me to my studies—"

"There are people here that could be directly affected by this news. I know how royalty works; you can't fall in love with just anyone. I know you have a ring waiting to be put on your finger and I know there are people here that like you as more than a friend."

She looked up at him confused, was he saying he liked her? No, it wasn't him. But who was it? She glanced around and then looked up at him.

"I'll tell them when I'm ready. Please do not push me, I am not an enemy you want to make."

She shot him a look and he knew what she meant, she could shut him down with a single phone call. She wouldn't do that, but she did have that power. He took a seat and set his notebook down.

"Miss Wellington, I'm not trying to blackmail you. I'm just telling you, as a friend."

She looked at him, stared as hard as she could and realized he was being sincere. Olivia sighed and nodded. She would let them know.

"How did you find out?"

"I do background checks on everyone the club is interested in. Tamaki was thinking of recruiting Eugene, he seems to be a natural with the ladies. Then he realized you two were together—"

Olivia burst into laughter, "We are NOT together. I grew up with him; he's meant to protect me. In a way, he's like my twin. The same as the Hatchin twins. He is my Guardian, I told you. Please inform Tamaki that he is mistaken."

"Mistaken about what?"

She heard his voice and she froze, "I wanted to tell you that… I um… uh"

She couldn't find her words. She glanced back and he looked so confused, her face went flush and she looked down at her cup.

"Well, I'll leave you to this. I have a client."

Kyoya stood and Tamaki took his seat. Olivia couldn't look at him. Her telling him that Eugene wasn't her boyfriend made it seem like she liked him or that he liked her. He didn't like her, he barely knew her. She glanced up at him and he smiled.

"You don't have to tell me if you're uncomfortable."

"Tamaki, I wanted to tell you that… umm. Eugene and I are not a couple. That's all. If you want him for your club he's yours! I mean…. Not yours' but you know what I mean!"

She looked up at him blushing slightly, she smiled and he laughed a little.

"This is the first time I've seen you actually being yourself."

Her face went a little redder and she rubbed the back of her head, "It's a little harder when Eugene is around. He's a tough love kind of guy."

He laughed and nodded, "I can tell!"

She smiled, "Oh! Hey, I wanted to ask the club for help! I'm putting on a play."

Tamaki looked at her a bit confused before he really thought about it.

"A play? That sounds like a lot of fun!"
