Episode II: The Aftermath of the Girls' Contract
~OHSHC; Debate Club Room~
"...can't believe..." Sakura fumed, angrily as she opened the door to her club room. "..Make me do... Urgh! Ootori!"
"What has he done that you're mad about this time?" asked a voice who Sakura recognized as her boyfriend.
The black-haired Untaki turned toward him as he stood nearby with a confused look in his dark green eyes. He was tall and he had black hair cut in a professional way. He wore the Ouran male uniform as well. He was third year and President of the Debate Club, Tenchi Fukui.
Sakura huffed, getting her bag. "I found out something that I shouldn't have and Ootori made me sign a silence contract for it." She sat on a couch nearby, a deep frown on her lips with her eyes narrowed.
Tenchi shrugged, sitting beside her. "Doesn't seem that bad."
"Oh," Sakura raised an eyebrow. "After I signed the contract, I spotted something that I should have before signing it: the fine print. It said, that the signer must have the same schedule as one of the Hosts to make sure we don't break the contract we signed."
"Oh," Tenchi blinked, wrapping one of his arms around her shoulders. "That seems bad."
"Yes," Sakura agreed, leaning into his arm. "And we have to report to Music Room #3 after club hours to help clean up the room. Can you believe that? I don't want to spend anymore with Ootori than I have t-"
Tenchi interrupted her by kissing her chastely on the lips. Sakura closed her eyes and returned the kiss, cupping his face with her hands to bring him closer. He simply replied with the kiss deepening and wrapping his arms around her. When the couple was running out of air, they pulled away. Sakura's eyes fluttered open lazily as Tenchi took one of his hands and cupped her cheek, looking softly into her eyes.
"It's bad enough that I don't spend time with you during classes," Tenchi sighed, tucking a strand behind her ear. "Now Kyoya Ootori wants your time after club hours? Must be some big secret to make sure you don't break the contract you signed."
"You have no idea," Sakura groaned softly, breathing though her nose. "But I can't tell you."
"I know," Tenchi smiled softly before pecking her nose, "but I won't pressure you to tell Me." he pecked her cheeks. "I'll deal with it..." He pecked her lips. "At least I get you after-after club hours and weekends." He kissed her deeply and she returned it, whole heartedly.
Tenchi deepened the kiss, wrapping his arms around her. She sighed, running her hands through his hair. Feeling a presence watching them, Tenchi opened his eyes to see a familiar figure by the door. Knowing who it was, Tenchi smirked inwardly and kissed Sakura even deeper. She moaned softly and the figure disappeared from the door. Tenchi released a breathless Sakura, fixing his ruffled hair.
"I have to get you home," Tenchi explained standing up. "Your father's probably waiting for you to come home."
By this time, Sakura had caught her breath. "Yes, we should get going." She stood up, grabbing her bag. "Even though we have been dating a year, you still have to warn me when you kiss me deeply like that."
Tenchi chuckled lowly, smirking cheekily. "Sorry, I will next time."
"Please do." With that, the couple linked hands and walked out of the room, closing the door behind them.
~OHSHC; the Akiyama home~
"So which of the Hosts do you think is cute?" Mayumi asked, as the two walked to the front door of their home.
"Mayumi!" Naomi hissed, glaring at her.
"What?" Mayumi drawled, feigning innocence. "I was just teasing you... unless you do like one of the Hosts."
"'You can't marry a man you just met'," Naomi quoted as the two approached the front door.
"Don't quote Frozen to me," Mayumi chuckled, wrapping her arms around her stomach. "Besides, what does that quote have to do with anything?"
"I can't like a guy I just met," Naomi explained, as the butler opened the door for them. "And we met these guys today."
"Whatever," Mayumi huffed, bored.
"Mayumi! Naomi!"
The girl twins heard the shout before their legs were hugged by a small boy. The boy's hair was a deep dark blonde tint, and covered his forehead. He wore a simple white shirt and lion pajama pants. His blue eyes lit up in excitement and adoration as he stared up at the twins.
"Jouta!" the twins exclaimed as they picked him up.
The boy giggled and squirmed as he was bombarded with kisses and nuzzles from the twins. They didn't notice the figure of a woman in the room, chuckling lowly at them. Her hair was blonde and long in a ponytail. Her eyes were the same of the twins, a light blue hue. She wore a red sundress with wide straps and a calf-length skirt.
"Come on, girls. Stop this torture and put your brother down." The twins and boy looked at the figure and smiled.
"Mom!" they shouted in unison before they all embraced her.
"Nice to see you too," their mother, Yuika, sighed, hugging them. "Mayumi and Naomi, get out of those dresses and relax. Dinner isn't until seven after your father gets home."
"Okay, mom," the twins nodded, releasing their mom and Jouta.
The two headed up the stairs and into their large bedroom. An entertainment center was set a few feet from the door. Across from the entertainment center, two queen-sized beds sat with a different color bed spread: one pink and one purple. Near the beds, closer to the pink bed, was a pair of double doors, which the two entered. Across the double doors, a large bay window with white curtains was letting the sun in the room. A desk set in the corner beside the entertainment center, collecting dust.
The twins emerged from the double doors, which turned out to be their bathroom/closet. Mayumi donned a pink tee with a M on the chest and pink sweat pants while Naomi wore something similar to Mayumi with the only differences of the color being purple and a 'N' on the chest of the tee.
"What do you want to do, Naomi?" Mayumi asked, plopping down in front of the entertainment center.
Naomi sat beside her, a confused look on her face. "I don't know... Maybe we should talk about the boys who grabbed us?"
"The Hitachiin twins?" Mayumi clarified, to which Naomi nodded. "What about them? Do you like one of them?"
Naomi shook her head slightly. "N-no! It's just... they might pull some pranks on us and all for finding out Haruhi's secret."
Mayumi raised an eyebrow, smirking mischievously. "Since when do you care about someone pranking us? If they do that, we'll just prank right back. We still have our prank book, right?"
Naomi thought about it, before smiling. "You're right, and guess what?" She paused, getting out a book that read 'Pranks' on the cover. "Since we're at a new school, we can use and do every prank in this book."
Mayumi chuckled mischievously, looking at the book. "Exactly, now let's see..."
~OHSHC; the Kuizumi Mansion~
"We're home!" Ukemo shouted as her and Karai came through the front door.
"Welcome home, young Mistresses." Various maids and butlers bowed to them in unison.
"Where's Mom and Dad?" Ukemo asked the head maid, Rin.
"The Master and the Mistress is in the tester's kitchen," Rin explained, before going off to finish a task.
"Okay, thanks," Ukemo smiled as Rin walked off. "Come on, Karai."
Karai nodded before following the short brunette. The tester's kitchen was beyond the family room behind a close door with an advanced locking system. The kitchen itself held the secret recipes of the sweets of Kui Delights that every other desert business wanted to get their hands on. The kitchen also allowed the Kuizumi's to test new recipes and decided if they would be added to the business or not.
The two girls had arrived to the door that lead to the tester's kitchen. Unlocking it, Ukemo stepped through the door to search for her parents and found them discussing what seemed to be a new recipe.
Ukemo's father, Okito Kuizumi, was a tall man, wearing a suit and tie. He had brown hair cut in a professional way. His eyes were a deep green, like leaves on a tree. His wife and Ukemo's mother, Amika, was of medium height and very slender in weight. She had black hair curled up into a bun, so her hair wouldn't get in their pastries and deserts, and robin-egg blue eyes like Ukemo. Amika wore a white chef's jacket, an apron with baking stains, and black pants with flour stains. Okito handled any business/finacce in Kui Delights while his wife handled the recipes and baking the treats with the workers.
"So what do you think?" Amika asked, on her toes in anticipation.
Okito looked to be munching on something with a content look on his face. "I believe we found a new wonderful addition to our recipes." He had stated with a smile.
Amika beamed, looking much like Ukemo at the moment. "Yay! Strawberry Cream Pie is officially a 'Kui Delight'!"
Okito chuckled adoringly at his wife. "So it has..."
"Hey, Mom! Dad!" Ukemo exclaimed, coming into the tester's kitchen with Karai shutting the door.
"Ukemo, Karai! Welcome home!" the couple engulfed their daughters in embraces.
"Mom!" Ukemo whined when she realized that her mother had gotten flour on her uniform. "You got flour on me!" The short brunette proceeded to pout, cutely to Karai and her parents, with flour on her face as well.
Amika giggled amusedly. "Don't worry, you can wash up before dinner."
"Which won't be ready until seven tonight," Okito added, picking up and tickling Ukemo who had giggled in response.
"C-cut it o-out-t, d-daddy-y," Ukemo laughed, trying to push the tickling hands away. "T-that t-tickl-les-s!"
Okito chuckled, increasing his 'attack'. "Well, that gives me every reason not to." His response was more giggling and wriggling in his arms.
"Alright, honey," Amika laughed, smiling softly with Karai at the display. "I think Ukemo has enough of that."
"Aw..." Her husband pouted childishly, ceasing his attack. "Way to ruin the fun..." He placed a panting/giggling Ukemo on the floor.
Amika rolled her eyes at Okito, amusingly. "Why don't you girls go upstairs and change into more comfortable clothes? Dinner won't be ready until a few hours."
"Okay, mom." Ukemo, finally breathing properly again, nodded to her. "Come on, Karai." The two exited out of the tester's kitchen.
Ukemo chatted to Karai as they headed up the stairs. Karai nodded her input as they entered the floor of their rooms. They separated in the direction of their respective bedrooms, which were beside each other's.
Ukemo opened her door tentatively and shut them close. The room was described as childish by designers, but it was perfect for Ukemo. Despite her growth disorder, the desert-baking heiress loved everything girly and pink. The wooden pieces of the furniture was white and the wallpaper was light pink with different designs stenciled in a darker pink. The bed was a canopy and was set in between the closet and the main door against the wall. Beside the closet door was a makeup table, but it was bare. A television hanged across from the bed between two large windows. Crossing the room and placing her bag down, Ukemo walked to her closet. A few minutes later, she emerged in a pair of pink flannel sleep-wear.
Karai went into her room after she saw that Ukemo did as well. Her room was white and almost bare. Selected pieces of furniture were placed in different parts of the room. Even though she had been with the Kuizumi's for about five years, she hasn't a lot to decorate her room with. Her awards and trophies were in a case in her closet. Karai put her bags away and went into her closet. She emerged in a pair of light green house pants and white sweatshirt.
Her door opened to reveal Ukemo, looking up at Karai with innocent blue eyes.
"Can we watch a couple of movies before dinner, Karai?" Ukemo asked, childishly.
Karai smiled softly before she replied, "Yes."
~OHSHC; the Untaki Manor~
"I'll see you tomorrow, okay?" Tenchi smiled at his girlfriend.
He walked Sakura to the front door of her house. Sakura glanced at him and nodded once. Tenchi's smile grew wide before he pulled her close and placed a chaste kiss on her lips. She kissed back momentarily before he pulled away, walking back to his family limo.
The door opened to reveal the butler of the house, Akari. "Welcome home, Young Mistress. Your father has informed me that he needs to see you in his office."
"Thank you," Sakura curtly replied, walking into the house. "I'm home!"
"Eeeee!"
"Y-young Mistress! W-wait!"
"Sakura!" A little girl hugged Sakura's knees, looking up at her with excited hazel eyes. Her hair curled to the top of her shoulders, the color of black ravens it was. She wore a light blue nightgown for little girls. "You're home!"
Sakura chuckled softly, picking the girl up. "Yes, Junika. I am."
A maid panted nearby, approaching the two sisters. "I'm sorry, Young Mistress Sakura. She just-"
Sakura cut her off. "It's okay, I don't mind. Would you tell my mother and Saki that I'm home?"
"Yes, madam," the maid bowed before leaving the room.
"Sakura, guess what Jouta and I did today?" Junika soon began to rant while Sakura smiled gently. Her story was finished when a woman and a short teenage boy came into the room. "Mommy! Saki! Sakura's home!"
"Welcome home, my darling," the woman smiled, a baby on her hip.
Sakura had received countless comments that she had her mother's looks. Karina had black hair, the very same as her daughter but shorter. Her hazel eyes matched those of Junika, but they held a sense of maturity and maternal within them. She wore a pink blouse and a long, loose white skirt.
Genichi, the youngest Untaki, started to reach for Sakura. The one-year old had the innocent hazel eyes of his mother, and the growing chestnut brown hair of his father. Sakura found it ood that her youngest brother never let the maids touch him, even crying if they tried to pick him up.
'Saki', or Sakito shook his head, amused at his sister's innocence. His hair was chestnut brown and laid flat on his head, navy eyes filled with amusement. He wore the boys' Ouran Middle Academy Uniform, and was of medium height.
"Thank you, Mother," Sakura replied, placing Junika on the ground. She plucked her youngest brother out of her mother's arms who cuddled closer to her. "How was fighting club, Saki?"
"I almost beat Chika-senpai today," Saki replied, crossing his arms. "Almost."
"One of these days you will," Sakura assured, gently tickling Genichi in her arms. The boy giggled, trying to avoid the attack. "I don't believe that I've met him yet."
"Yeah..."
"Has Akari told that your father wants to see you?" Karina asked, watching as her eldest slumped a bit.
Sakura tickled Genichi again, earning his giggles once more. "Yes, mother. I should start heading to his office."
"But, Sakura," Junika whimpered, looking up with teary eyes.
"I'll be out to play with you as soon as I can," Sakura replied, softly to her sister.
Sakura handed Genichi back to her mother, the baby whining to be out of his sister's hold. She walked calmly past the foyer and up the stairs into the hallway that led to her father's study. When she reached a dark-brown, wooden door, Sakura stopped and knocked on it.
"Enter," a deep voice boomed behind the door.
Sakura opened the door, real slowly to reveal bookshelves and a big desk made of the same wood as the door. Behind the desk sat her father in his chair, looking over some papers.
"Did you want to see me, father?" Sakura asked, bowing respectively to her father.
Her father, Daichi Untaki, looked up from the newspaper. Like his daughter, the top lawyer had navy eyes shielded by glasses. His hair was the same color as his son, Sakito, styled in a professional cut. He often wore black suits with different solid color ties and black Oxfords.
"Yes," Daichi nodded, looking up at her from the papers, "anything worth interesting happen today with the mission?"
"Nothing new with the mission, but I pulled an amateur move when signing a contrac-"
Her father interrupted her with a wave of his hand. "Before we get into that, why did you have to sign a contract and what or who for?"
"I found out something that I shouldn't have and Kyoya Ootori of the Host Club," Sakura rolled her eyes, "made me and several other girls sign a silence contract."
"Ootori, as in the son of Yoshio Ootori?" Daichi clarified, raising an eyebrow.
Sakura nodded her head. "The third son to be exact."
"Interesting, continued." Daichi hummed, motioning with her hand.
"Anyway, after I signed, I realized that I forgot to read the fine print," Sakura groaned, looking shameful at her father. "Forgive me, father, for pulling such an amateur move."
Daichi calculated this information and looked frustrated when finished. He took a couple of deep breaths before speaking clearly. "You're forgiven; just make sure that you read the fine print on a contract."
"Yes, father," Sakura replied, bowing.
"How's the secret mission going on?" Daichi asked, moving on from the previous subject. "Did you see your target?"
"Yes, he was able to not suspect anything," Sakura replied, nodding her head slightly. "What about your target? Did you see him, too?"
"The target tried to butter me up like a piece of toast," her father chuckled darkly. "However, I gave him what he wanted like a master to his dog."
"When will we need to expose them, father?" Sakura asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Soon, my dear daughter," Daichi smirked, getting up from his chair. "Now, you may leave. I will see at dinner." He embraced his daughter, placing a tender kiss on her head.
Sakura hugged her father back with a small sigh. "Yes, father," she muttered into his chest.
Daichi released his daughter and guided her to the door, opening like a true gentlemen. Sakura bowed to him as a farewell and left her father's office. The door closed behind as she walked on, exploring the hall. Realizing she still was in her school uniform, she started the walk to her room.
Sakura's bedroom was large and it was far from the rest of the Untaki mansion as well as being on the ground floor. From her door sat her large King-sized bed, two night stands on each side. Her bedroom had balcony doors that led to her own private yard. She would often go out to relax and/or to do her homework, weather permitted. Not far from her door, she had a little hallway that led to two more doors; one: her private bathroom and the other: her large closet. Near the little hallway, a beauty table sat with a mirror and a chair. This table had brushes with various pieces of jewelry and makeup neatly organized on it. A large screen television hang across from the bed in front of a couch. In that back corner of Sakura's was the final piece of her bedroom: a large desk with a layout that resembled a teacher's desk.
When she entered her large bedroom, Sakura closed the door and threw her school bag in frustration. She grumbled angrily, "Stupid Ootori" under breath and along with a declaration of revenge on the boy. She stomped into her closet and change into evening wear which was a sleeve-less, calf-length deep violet gown. She went into her private bathroom and removed her glasses to splash some cold water on her face to cool her anger. After a few deep breaths, she dried her face with a towel. She pulled her black locks up into a bun and left her bathroom as well as her bedroom to play with her sister as promised.
~OHSHC; the Akiyama Home~
The next morning, one lump laid on the pink bed and one on the purple bed of the Akiyama twins' room, each lump under the confronter. The morning sunlight shone in through the large bay windows as a melodious song played from the alarm clock on the small night table between the pink and purple beds.
"If you can dream, the wish we're making on star is coming true..."
A hand peeked from under the pink lump while an identical hand from the purple lump. They both reach for the 'Snooze' button on the alarm clock and shut off the song at the same time. They withdraw into their respective lumps, and the Akiyama twins came out from the lumps like butterflies from cocoons. Both stretched identical, yawning as they did.
The twins were clothed in identical night gowns: Mayumi in a light pink one and Naomi in a light violet one. The gowns were thigh-lengthen with adjustable thin straps, and were made of silk material. Little fabric roses line the hem of the top with a big one in the middle of the cleavage. A lace trim was on the bottom hem.
"Hey, Mayumi," Naomi looked over her twin. "Do you think the Host Club was serious when they said that we're going to a class change and we're on clean-up duty after club hours?"
Mayumi shrugged, "We did sign a contract saying that we would keep Haruhi's secret after all. So they might be serious about it. Plus," Mayumi looked at Naomi with soft smile, "it might be fun, know." She winked playfully.
Naomi giggled in agreement, before getting up to get in their closet. Mayumi followed closely after. They went in together and came out together in their school uniforms. Their blonde hair was curled and they wore their headbands; pink and purple respectively. Bags in their hands, they headed out the door and down the stairs to the dining room to join their family for breakfast.
~OHSHC; the Untaki Mansion~
In the bedroom of Sakura Untaki, the alarm cook on her night stand went off.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
A pale hand sharply slammed down on the alarm clock, turning the noise. A pair of eyes opened to reveal navy orbs, squinting to adjust to the see. A body rose and sat to stretch their muscles out. Reaching out to the side table with the alarm clock, arms grabbed a sleek black glass case to open and remove the spectacles within. Hands unfolded the item and placed it on the bridge of the body's nose, shielding the navy orbs.
Sakura slipped out of the bed, stretching their legs out before doing so. Her black hair was askew a bit, but kept that straight quality. She wore a night gown with thin, adjustable straps to hold it from her shoulders. The gown stopped at her knees and was made of satin in white. A brassiere was built into the gown to support her bosom. Sakura, stretching one final time, walked into her closet to change into her school uniform.
A few minutes later, Sakura stepped out of her closet, dressed in the yellow uniform. She stopped into her bathroom and brushed her teeth properly. When she was done, she shut off the water and exited the bathroom. She walked to her beauty table and picked one of the hair brushes, proceeding to brush her hair. When she was satisfied with her hairstyle, she walked to her desk, collecting any homework to place in her school bag. She made her bed before heading out the door, school bag in hand.
~OHSHC; the Kuizumi Mansion~
A couple of arms stretched above a layer of covers and a figure rose from the layer. Ukemo yawned childishly, rubbing her eyes. She crawled to the edge of the bed and stood up to reveal her night attire. She wore a light pink short-sleeved night gown that stopped at her knees. Her light pink lips smiled at the sunshine gleaming through the windows.
"I've got to wake up Karai," Ukemo muttered, remembering that her foster sister was still asleep.
Without changing, Ukemo dashed out of her bedroom and into the hallway. She walked a few doors down and paused in front of a door.
"K-karai?" Ukemo timidly asked, knocking on the door. "Are you awake?"
Receiving no response, the small brunette pushed the door and silently walked in. The already-made bed was empty, and the tenant was stretching in front of it. The figure Ukemo recognized was her foster sister, Karai. She wore an emerald silk gown. The gown was knee-lengthen and had slits on the sides up to her mid-thighs.
"Karai!" Ukemo exclaimed, rushing over to her.
"Hmm?" Karai perked up, stopping her stretches.
Ukemo sighed, slumping to the ground. "Today's the first day for that contract we signed. What do you think will happen?"
Karai shrugged, before returning to her stretches. Ukemo furrowed her eyebrows together, mouth gaping.
Karai never talks much, but I always thought she was shy...
"Young mistress?" a voice came from the door. "Your parents request you to get ready and come down for breakfast."
"Okay, you can go," Karai hummed, standing up. "Ukemo, go get ready."
"Hmm?" Ukemo mumbled, looking up at Karai.
"You're still dressed in your night gown," Karai explained simply, smirking.
Ukemo looked down at her attire and squeaked, blushing red. "R-right!"
The brunette scurried off to her room and quickly put on her school uniform. After she was finished with her hair, she walked out of her room with her school bag. Karai was already waiting by the door, uniform on and gym bag in hand.
"You ready to go, Karai?" Ukemo asked, blinking up at her innocently.
"Hmm," Karai replied, nodding her head a bit.
The two headed down the stairs, together.
~OHSHC; Ouran Academy Homeroom 1-A~
Haruhi walked through the door of her homeroom with a couple of minutes before the tardy bell rang. She walked to her seat between the twins and sat down in her seat.
"Hey, Haruhi," the twins, who were already there, greeted her.
"Hey, guys," Haruhi stated back. "So are the girls that signed the contracts going to follow through with the conditions?"
"They have to," Kaoru replied, leaning forward in his chair.
"Otherwise, they'll get sued for not following them," Hikaru shrugged, leaning back in his chair.
"I still don't think that Kyoya-senpai shouldn't have done that," Haruhi remarked, sighing. "He didn't do that with Bossa-Nova."
"Because he was making money for how Casanova was making a fool of himself in front of you," Hikaru explained, leaning back in his chair. "Which made the Moe fan go crazy."
"Plus, I think Kyoya-senpai made the contract after that incident," Kaoru added in.
Haruhi huffed. "Still, he didn't have to do that."
Suddenly, the students in their homeroom started whispering frantically. The three Hosts looked to the front of the room and saw the reason why. Mayumi and Naomi were holding hands while Mayumi placed a piece of paper in front of the teacher, who took it.
"Apparently, we have two students transferring into Class 1-A," the teacher explained, reading off the paper. "Students, this is Mayumi and Naomi Akiyama. Treat them with respect. You two may sit wherever you like."
"Yes, sensei," the Akiyama twins stated in unison, bowing.
The class watched as the twins sat in two empty desks by the windows. Mayumi sat in the front desk while Naomi sat behind her. They released their hands as they sat down. The two proceeded to talk to each other while the chatter returned to its regular octave and speed.
"How come they haven't acknowledge us?" Haruhi wondered out loud, raising an eyebrow.
"Don't know, don't care," the twins beside replied in unison.
With the Akiyama twins, the sisters talked back and forth with each other.
"Do you think we should have acknowledge them?" Naomi asked eyes toward the three Hosts.
Mayumi huffed, rolling her eyes. "If we have done that, the girls would have gotten suspicious about how close we are to them and blah, blah, blah..."
Naomi sighed, looking away from the group. "Maybe you're right, but we'll need to go over to the Host Club after club hours."
"Yeah, but we have the auditions to worry about today," Mayumi informed her, smiling comfortingly.
Her smile was mirrored on her twin's face.
~OHSHC; Ouran Academy Homeroom 2-A~
"Are you sure that you're fine, Sakura?" Tenchi asked, looking worried at his girlfriend.
"Yes, Tenchi," Sakura sighed, smiling convincingly. "Don't worry..."
Tenchi sighed, smiling in reply. "I can't help but worry..."
Students, girls especially, watched the couple interact outside the homeroom of the girl. Tenchi had his arms around Sakura's waist while her hands rested on his shoulders. Some girls were swooning at Tenchi's statement to his girlfriend. Tenchi's smile grew into a smirk at this.
Tenchi leaned down and whispered in Sakura's ear. "People are staring. Let's give them a show..."
"A teacher could see," Sakura whispered back, raising an eyebrow at her boyfriend's behavior. "Since when do you want to be affectionate in public?"
"I just want a kiss..." Tenchi softly explained, frowning slightly. "Is that too much to ask?"
Sakura sighed, wrapping her arms around his neck. "Well, since you ask for a kiss..." Not really "Alright."
Tenchi pulled with a satisfied grin on his face, and leaned in. Their lips touched lightly and the girls cooed about how cute the couple was. Tenchi tightened his grip around Sakura's waist and pressed his lips firmly against hers.
Tamaki, who was with Kyoya, walked and stared at the couple in awe. He stopped and gestured for Kyoya to stop as well. He leaned in to whisper to Kyoya.
"So that's Sakura and her boyfriend? They're make a pretty couple," Tamaki stated, not noticing his friend's small glare at the couple. "Who is the boy anyway?"
Kyoya sighed, before explaining the boy. "Tenchi Fukui. Third year. Age: 18. President of the Debate Club. His father works for Sakura's father in his firm. The two had been dating for the past year."
"Do you think they will still be together after he graduates?" Tamaki asked, hopeful.
"I doubt it," Kyoya replied, watching in amusement as Tamaki's hope deflated. "Untaki seems like the type of girl that won't bother with a relationship even if the boy has moved on with his life."
"But she's going out with him..." Tamaki shakily pointed out.
"She's probably doing it because of her father," Kyoya explained, before noticing that he contradicted himself.
"But you just told me that his father works for her father," Tamaki pointed out, raising an eyebrow. "Why would her father tell her to date if his father was already with the company in some way?"
Kyoya huffed, rolling his eyes. "Shut up, Tamaki."
The two noticed that the couple had release each other and were panting slightly with a flush on their cheeks. Sakura and Tenchi exchanged a few words before going their separate ways. Tamaki and Kyoya followed Sakura into their home room, and sat in their regular seats. Sakura's seat was beside Kyoya's and that was unfortunate for the both of them. The two glared sharply at each other. At this point, Sakura had stopped panting and her cheeks were back to normal.
"Untaki, do you get all the exercise you need from working these lip muscles?"
"Do you strain yourself coming up with that, Ootori? Frankly, you being near at the top of the class has not permit you from coming up with something as simple-minded like that one..."
Kyoya growled while Sakura smirked. At that moment, the bell rang and home room began.
~OHSHC; Ouran Academy Homeroom 3-A~
Ukemo and Karai entered the homeroom that they were going to attend until they graduated: 3-A.
"Hey, Ukemo, Karai," a familiar voice caught the two's attention. They found Hani waving to them from a desk, with Mori in the next desk beside him. The two Hosts were surrounded by girls who just glared at the two girls.
Ukemo flinched back when the glares hit while Karai stood in place stoically. Ukemo looked down to the ground sadly before moving to two empty desks on the opposite side of the room away from Mori and Hani. Karai placed a piece of paper on the teacher's desk before following Ukemo and sitting beside her.
Before Hani could further acknowledge the two, the bell ring for homeroom to start.
~OHSHC; Music Room #3~
After club hours, the five girls arrived to start cleaning up the room while the Hosts watched as they worked. Naomi collected the dirty teacups and plates and handed them to Ukemo. From then, Ukemo washed the dishes carefully. After that, Mayumi collected the clean dishes from Ukemo and walked them over to Sakura who put them away properly. Karai swept the room with a broom and dust pan.
"Oh, this is so boring..."
"...watching them clean up," the Hitachiin twins stated.
"Well, it was Kyoya's idea to have them clean up the room after club hours," Tamaki pointed out.
"Yeah, but they were supposed to help, not actually do the cleaning themselves," Haruhi grumbled. Damn rich people...
"Don't question my motives," Kyoya warned, typing away on his computer. "Besides they're almost done."
"Must be tiring clean up," Hani commented, mouth full of cake. "Right, Takashi?"
"Mmm…" was the reply Hani received from his cousin.
"But we're still bored," the Hitachiin twins whined in unison.
"You know that we can hear you, right?" Sakura asked, raising an eyebrow.
"You could help, you know," the Akiyama twins suggested in unison.
"There's no need," Kyoya replied, pushing his glasses up. "You girls seemed to have it under control."
"Damn Ootori," Sakura growled underneath her breath.
Naomi found the last dirty dish and brought it to Ukemo. The process was repeated one more time before the four ladies were done. Karai was done with the sweeping and dumped the trash into the garbage bin from the dust pan. The Akiyama twins and Ukemo collapsed on couches nearby, exhausted. Sakura calmly sat down on a vacant chair, irritation in her eyes as she rubbed her temples. Karai followed in the same manner on a chair near the couch where Ukemo laid.
"Congratulations, ladies," Kyoya stated walking over to where they were with the rest of the Hosts. "You managed to finish cleaning the room in 30 minutes."
"Fan-fricking-tastic," the Akiyama twins sarcastically stated, glaring at the boy.
"How long do we have to do this?" Ukemo asked, eyes drooping a bit.
"Just until Haruhi is revealed as a girl," Hikaru replied with a smirk.
"Which will be probably at the end of her third year," Kaoru explained, with the same smirk as his brother.
The Akiyama twins groaned in unison while the Hitachiin twins snickered in response.
Kyoya heard typing on a computer and turned to find Sakura on her computer, typing away.
"What do you think you are doing?" Kyoya curtly asked, walking over to Sakura.
"Finishing the book report for Advanced Literature," Sakura explained, glaring from the corner of her eye.
"Isn't that the assignment we got today that isn't due until next week?" Tamaki asked, scratching his head.
The second year girl paused in her typing. "Yes," Sakura simply replied before resuming her typing.
Tamaki pouted before realizing something, turning toward the only commoner of the room. Tamaki dragged Haruhi away from the group, going on about "commoner stuff". Haruhi, though complaining in her mind, went along with Tamaki's plan.
Hani, spotting Ukemo, beamed before moving toward her. He had Mori sat down a cake on the table near her.
"Hey, Ukemo," Hani greeted, sitting beside the now-surprised girl.
"How do you know my name?" Ukemo asked, blinking in confusion.
"You're in my class so how could I not know it?" Hani replied, before chumping on some cake. "I thought that I would share my cake with you. Want to?"
Ukemo's cheek turned slightly pink before she beamed, nodding her head. She picked an already cut piece of cake, due to Mori, and started to devour it.
The Hitachiin twins looked as their only source of getting out of boredom was dragged away before settling on the Akiyama twins. Mayumi was behind Naomi, braiding her sister hair. The Hitachiins shared a smirk before heading over to the couch across the girls. The twin girls blinked before turning their attention.
"What do you guys want?" the Akiyama twins asked in unison.
"We're bored so..."
"...entertain us," the Hitachiin twins stated.
"How are we supposed to..."
"...entertain you?" the Akiyama twins asked.
"You play a game with us," the Hitachiin twins replied in unison.
"What game?" the Akiyama twins raised an eyebrow.
"The 'Which One is Hikaru' game," the twin boys responded in unison. "Where you have to guess which one is Hikaru."
"How are we supposed to guess when we've only known you for a day?" Naomi asked, raising an eyebrow.
"What? Backing from the challenge?" Hikaru smirked challengingly.
"No, we accept," Mayumi replied, thoughtfully. "But there's a chance we might get it wrong."
"You two wouldn't be the first," the boy twins pointed out nonchalantly.
"However, there's a chance we might get it right," the girl twins explained.
"You never know," the Hitachiins shrugged.
The Hitachiin twins had brought out the green hats and smirked at the girl twins.
"Ready?" the boy twins asked, about to place the green hats on their heads.
"Ready," the girl twins nodded.
The Hitachiin twins placed the hats on their heads, covering up where they part their hair. They switched themselves animatedly, reminding the girls of an anime. The boys stopped and beamed at the girls.
"Now which one is Hikaru?" the Hitachiin twins asked in unison.
The Akiyama twins looked at the Hitachiin twins, thoughtful looks on their face. Mayumi pointed at the twin in front of her.
"Hikaru," she simply stated.
Naomi pointed at the twin in front of her, and stated in the same tone as her sister.
"Kaoru."
The Hitachiin twins smirked, "Wrong."
"No, we know we're right," the Akiyama twins smirked slightly.
"You girls are wrong~!" the boy twins sing-song.
"Think what you want..."
"...but we know and you know we got it right," the girl twins stated.
For the next 30 minutes, the Hosts and the girls bonded. Sakura was the first to leave, followed by Kyoya. The order of people leaving Music Room #3 was the same as the day before. Haruhi left the room with a thought,
'Mom, this day has been tiring, but it was a good day. I wonder what the future for me and the Hosts with these girls...'
And done!
