Some Call It Love
Chapter 2- Meet the Seino's
~*~
The last couple of days had been a blur for Haruhi. After the incident with the letter, every single person in school knew that the Seino's were coming to Ouran- including all the teachers and the principal. So after word had gotten out, all the students and faculty started making preparation- the school was polished from head to toe, new decorations were put up, and old antiques and paintings were replaced with new, up-to-date ones.
Since Haruhi hadn't told anyone how she knew the Seino's, there were many rumors going around. The most common one was that Haruhi was somehow related to the Seino's.
But rumors and the interior designing of Ouran were the least of Haruhi's worries. Her mind was on Kyoya and what he had said to her a few days ago.
The day after the letter was found out, Haruhi walked into one of Ouran's many libraries hoping to find a peaceful spot to study. That was when she noticed Kyoya in one of the aisles.
"Ah, Kyoya-senpai," Haruhi greeted.
"Oh, it's you Haruhi," and they ended up talking for a while.
The conversation was going quite smoothly until Haruhi asked, "Why do you take everything so seriously? Life isn't a competition, you know."
Kyoya sighed, slowly closing the book he was flipping through. "Well, since you're a commoner I don't expect you to understand."
And that was where Haruhi's thoughts ended, the last sentence still bugging her. I won't understand, huh? Gosh, he needs to add a little fun to his life. I'm sure Sakura can do something about that…unless she's already as serious as him. She sighed mentally, worrying about one of her best friends. True she was just a commoner, but Haruhi knew what it felt like to have a lot of pressure on one's back, and since Sakura was the oldest of the three sisters, she was sure to be heavily burdened. Rose and Lily should be okay, but what about Sakura… her thoughts trailed off. Ah! I shouldn't think like that! I should think positive. Yeah, positive.
"Haruhi!" Two voices shouted together, breaking her chain of thoughts.
"Oh, Hikaru, Kaoru?" She questioned, mostly to herself. She looked past the twins and saw the gates that guarded the entrance to Ouran. I'm here already.
"Are you okay? You seemed like you were in a daze," one of them asked.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine," Haruhi said, putting on the best smile she could muster.
Then Kaoru spotted something, "Hey, who's that?" His attention turned to something behind Haruhi.
"What?" She faced to see what he was pointing at.
Two girls, not wearing the traditional yellow Ouran High Uniform, stepped out of the black stretched limo that had stopped in front of them. Both flipped their brown hair before continuing an argument which had obviously started before they had gotten here.
"Well next time, maybe you should think before you do something stupid!" One of the two identical twins proclaimed to the other.
"I'm not the one who does stupid things. You don't see me burn my breakfast everyday!" The other girl stated, trying to make a point.
"I don't burn my breakfast!"
"Oh, I'm sorry. Did you not see the bowl of cereal that was on fire this morning, or were you too busy burning my coffee?"
Haruhi and the other twins just stood there in awe, having no idea what to say. Well, I know Rose and Lily are fine, but what about…
"Um, that would be them, right?" Hikaru asked.
Haruhi just sweat dropped, "If you mean the two brown haired, green eyed girls who are quarreling about flaming cereal, then yes. That's Rose and Lily."
Upon hearing their name they turned to see Haruhi and two other people next to her.
"No way, Haruhi!" Lily perked up, ecstatic to see her. "I can't believe it's really you! After so many years of the pain and suffering of being separated, we are reunited once more!" she now had fake tears coming out of her eyes and, in the whole process, had also thrown her arms around Haruhi, giving her a bear crushing hug.
Rose, being the more mature one at the time, just walked over to the commotion and separated Lily from Haruhi.
"Thanks for saving me Rose-," Haruhi started, but was cut off by a hug from Rose.
"I can't believe you! I wrote to you about every week and you replied only a few times!" Rose sounded sad.
"Hello to you too, Rose," Haruhi replied.
"So you two must be the famous Rose and Lily Seino that Haruhi always mentions," Hikaru started.
"It's so nice to finally meet you," Kaoru finished for his brother.
Rose and Lily were speechless
"Are people in Japan always so formal?" Rose asked.
"Hikaru, Kaoru, you don't have to do that. You can just normally talk with them," then Haruhi remembered something was missing. "Hey, where's Sakura?"
"Wait, I swear I put my cell phone in my purse. Where could it have gone?" A voice came from inside the limousine, "Well that's just great! I must've lost it when the cereal was on fire! And I had everything on there too! Now what do I tell that stupid cell phone company. 'Oh, I'm sorry, I think my cell phone burned in the bowl of cereal that my sister caught on fire.' Yes Sakura, they are so going to believe that." A blue-eyed, black haired girl, also not wearing a uniform, stepped out of the limo looking frantic and rummaging through her purse. "Lily, have you seen my cell?"
"Sorry, I have no idea where it is," she said innocently.
Haruhi stood there for a second or two as relief hit her, and then sighed, "I see you haven't changed a bit."
Sakura dropped everything she was doing and looked up. Her eyes grew wide. "Haruhi!" she screamed so loud that birds in the distance flew away. She nearly jumped on top of Haruhi. "Oh my gosh! It's really you! Do you have any idea how much I've missed you? It's been too long."
"Six years, I've been counting!" Haruhi smiled; glad to see her friend exactly the way she was when they had left. "Oh Sakura, this is Hikaru and Kaoru. They're part of the Host Club, and we're also in the same class."
"Nice to meet you," Sakura bowed, noticing the onlookers.
"The pleasure's all ours," they replied.
Haruhi heard the warning bell ring and turned. "Well we better get going- we don't want to be late." As soon as they stepped on to school grounds, balloons, confetti, and a red carpet stretching from the gate to the doorways of Ouran, popped out of nowhere. Along with them came about half the school and the chairman and his son.
The young blonde haired boy stepped in front of the other man (who seemed to be his father) and walked over to Haruhi and the others. He stopped in front of Sakura and said, "Ah you must be Sakura Seino-san." He grabbed her hand and kissed it lightly. "It's wonderful to be in the presence of all three of you."
"Oh please, you are too kind," Sakura replied with a smile.
"I am Tamaki Suoh- the King of Ouran High School's Host Club!" he said putting emphasis on the word 'King' and striking a pose. All the girls in the crowd started cheering.
What the heck? Rose and Lily thought.
"Don't worry, he's always like that," Haruhi assured.
The man that had come along with Tamaki cleared his throat, "Well, it's nice to finally meet you all and I hope your experience at Ouran is like none other. I am Yuzuru Suoh and if you have any questions or problems please feel free to contact me about them for not only am I Tamaki's father," he paused (Probably for a dramatic effect, Sakura thought.), "I am also the chairman of this school!" he also finished with a pose.
Just as I thought- like father, like son, Sakura held in her laughter. "Well thank you for your concern, but I'm sure our days here will be just fine," she politely bowed.
"Yes, I'm sure they will be great, and all your classmates will be kind but remember, if you have any problems you know who to call," Yuzuru said with a big smile on his face and in a sing-song voice. "Now Tamaki, be a gentleman and escort Sakura Seino-san to her classroom since you have the same homeroom."
"Yes, of course," he replied.
"Hikaru, Kaoru?" Yuzuru looked at them.
"Don't worry," Hikaru said.
"We can take both of the Seino-san's to their class," Kaoru finished.
"Good, and thank you," he bowed, and left.
"Seino-san, lets head to class."
"Please, just call me Sakura, Suoh-kun."
"Then please Sakura, call me Tamaki."
