Chapter two. The Ouran Idiots.
"ALRIGHT! Listen up men!" Tamaki yelled to the other hosts. "My cousin Lucy is coming to live with me! I have no idea what she looks like!" he seemed almost proud of the fact. "I have asked my driver to drop her off here, at the school, when she gets off the train". The twins looked at each other with their signature cheeky smirk. "We'll greet her, won't we Karou?" "But of course, Hikarou." "We're curious to see if she's as whacked up as the Boss is!" they ended speaking in synch.
"Kyou-chan, do you know anything about Tama-chans cousin?" Honey asked, clutching Usa-chan to his chest. "It pains me to say this, but I know very little about the lady" Kyouya replied, pushing his glasses up his nose, obviously irritated by this. "She should be arriving soon, though" she said, as final words to his short senpai, before walking away, writing in his little black book.
"Princess, are you sure about this?" Leo asked his mistress, Lucy. "Not much we can do about it now, Leo" she returned, smiling. "Miss Lucy?" The driver called over from the front seat. "We're almost there" he said, his face remaining expressionless. A few minutes later, the driver stopped in front of an enormous school. Leo got out of the car before the driver, holding the door open for the girl he so obviously liked. As Lucy lightly stepped out the car, her boots click-clacking on the cobble stone pathway, leaving the limo to return to the Suoh estate, to drop off her luggage. "Well...This is it" She breathed to her spirit companion. Leo led the way to Music Room 3, somehow knowing where it was. "Oh, wait!" She said, as Leo wrapped his fingers around the door handle. Lucy started ducting off her blue mini skirt, and straightening her white shirt with the blue cross on it, and as a finishing touch, pulled a mirror from her handbag, checking her hair. Leo just sighed happily, happy to see his mistress so excited. "Ok, go" she waved her hand to him to open the door, grinning at her cunning plan. "Excuse me; I am looking for a Mister Tamaki Suoh?" Leo said, in a proud voice, going along with Lucy's idea. "Hey look, it's a guy" the twins mumbled to each other, recalling the incident with Haruhi, suddenly placing expensive vases around. "I'm sorry, but the Host club is closed for today. You see our prince's cousin Lucy is coming today" Kyouya said, sounding like an official. "But, I AM Lucy" Leo said, trying to act girly, for the sake of Lucy's plan. Lucy had to cover her mouth to keep from bursting out with laughter, while the Host Club just stood there, looking shocked. 'You...you're Lucy?" Kyouya asked, trying to keep the disbelief from his voice. Leo just nodded, trying just as hard as his princess to keep from wetting themselves with laughter. The twins entered host mode, both extending a single red rose each, presenting them to the celestial spirit. "We're sorry for being so rude, Miss, please, won't you come in?" they said in synch, using their flirty voices. Leo glanced at Lucy, to see if it was ok to laugh now. She gave a quick nod, and within a millisecond of that nod, the man in the black suit and light orange hair burst out laughing, dropping to the floor, clutching his sides. Then another burst of laughter erupted, this one behind the door. The twins warily pulled the door towards them, finding a cute blonde on the floor, clutching her sides like her companion. "Please tell us you're Lucy" The breathed, taken back by the beauty on the floor. "A...Aye, that's me, Lucy Heartfilia" she grinned, in between the laughter.
Lucy sat on the plush red velvet sofa Leo standing behind her protectively, still laughing a bit at their prank. "OK, let's try this again" She stated, regaining most of her composure. "My name is Lucy Heartfilia, and this is my celestial spirit, Leo. Say hello, Leo" she said, turning to behind her. "Hello everyone" he said, still grinning ear-to-ear. "Uhm, where is Tamaki?" Lucy asked innocently. The twins jerked their thumbs towards a dark corner in the brightly lit room, where her cousin was sulking, and for some odd reason, was growing mushrooms. She stood up, and slowly approached him, unsure of how he would react to her. "Tamaki~. " She sang out to him, in an almost bewitching voice. He slowly turned his head around from his mushroom farm, eyes widening at the sight of the pretty blonde in front of him, leaning forward slightly, and singing out his name to him. "L...Lucy?" he asked stupidly. She smiled brightly. "YAY! Tamaki remembers me! I'm so happy!" she clapped her palms together, and did a sort of happy dance. "Hey, Lu-Chan! You wanna have some cake with me?" a little boy with honey-blonde hair asked. "Of course I will, but only if you not call me 'Lu-Chan, ok?" she replied, bending over to see eye to eye with him. "Heart-Chan then?" he asked, determined to find a nick-name for her. "Heart-Chan is fine" she smiled, and took his hand, as he led her to a small table with cake already set up for them.
~xXx~ Meanwhile, in Magnolia.
"MINNA! WE'RE HOME!" Natsu shouted, as he kicked the double doors open of the guild, everybody chatting happily to one another, a few acknowledging Natsu's greeting. The usual "Welcome home, Natsu" from Lucy didn't come, which was strange. He strode up to the bar, where the bar maid, and ex S-class wizard, Mira-Jane stood, cleaning a glass. "Hey Mira, where's Luce?" He asked, sitting in his usual spot, next to where Lucy would normally be. "I don't know, she went in to see the master yesterday, and hasn't been back since." She said, worry written all over her face. Natsu frowned. This wasn't like Lucy. "I'm gonna ask Master!" he said, brightening up again, racing towards the office. Natsu hadn't bothered knocking and just barged straight in, finding the room dark and gloomy. The master only did this when he was seriously upset about something. "Jii-San! What's up? Why are you sulking here in the dark?" he asked, one at a time, quietly approaching the old man's desk. Makarov looked up, seeing one of his children at his desk "What? You can't decide who you wanna chase away next? Or do you wannah leave yourself?" He hiccupped, obviously dead drunk. "What're you talking about?" he asked, "unless you figure it out yashelf, i won't say notin to yah" He mumbled determined to not tell a thing to the pink haired dragon slayer. Natsu was as dense as ever, and it seemed Makarov wasn't going to say.
