"The Host Club's Valentine's Day event?!"
Fangirls mobbed the poster wildly as the male students sighed in regret. Valentine's Day, and girls were constantly giving their love in their chocolates. In Class 2-A, Yuri sat there reading manga as she heard the girl's squealing their lungs out, that practically deafened the girl. She glanced at the pages oddly, as she bit her lip. The girl liked chocolate, yes, but she didn't like giving it away. Sure, she didn't expect anything on White Day next month, but it didn't really matter to her. The problem was that she was literally forced to give chocolate to her fiancee which irritated to no end.
"Ootori-san. Here." Yuri stated, with an irritated look on her face, after getting up from her seat and actually giving it to her fiance.
"I expected to see this. Thank you, Harada-san." Kyouya gave his ever-so platonic smile towards her as Yuri nodded.
"I don't expect anything from White Day, so save the trouble for giving me something." the girl sighed, waving around her hand with light laziness.
Kyouya looked up from his book, as he had to ask her a quick question. Besides, it was to try and rope in more customers...not anything else he was planning of course. He gazed at his fiancee with his usual calm and collective look upon his face. He remembered seeing the serious side of Yuri when she had to step in before a fight can occur. He noticed her slight concentration with her work, as he yet again noticed her staring at him with a cold look upon her pretty face.
Lightly putting down her book, Yuri folded her arms over her chest, childishly. "What now?" she questioned.
"The Host Club is hosting a Valentine's Day event, would you like to-"
"No." Yuri interrupted, poking out her tongue.
"..Fine, but it involves flowers." Kyouya stated turning around, awaiting for the few seconds before hearing footsteps behind him.
"I'll do it!" she smiled playfully. "Though...I heard you're the one who helps out with the funding right? Is is appropriate for the event?" she questioned tapping her cheek in thought.
"But of course." Kyouya smiled.
People gazed at the two, as they began to gossip about the pair. They noticed Kyouya's ever friendly smile towards her, and her smiling and being friendly. Naturally, people assumed they were both the same, and had the chemistry. The fangirls were giggling about how smart the pair were, and how extremely friendly they are to each other. They stared at the pair who smiled and returned to their respectable seats quietly.
"Hm? Isn't Harada-san ranked fourth?" "So? She's smart! It's no wonder she and Ootori-kun are so friendly with each other!" "She looks so pretty, so she must be going for Ootori-kun!" "Though, I thought she was the type to go after Tamaki-kun."
"Already?" Yuri questioned covering her mouth in shock.
"Unlike most public schools, the fangirls here can pick up rumors quickly." Kyouya stated as he pushed up his glasses casually.
"Why are you so calm about this?!" Yuri cried as she slumped over. "Seriously..my parents must be corrupt to choose someone platonic as my fiance."
"Oh? Already, you're panicking." Kyouya lightly laughed.
"Of course. I had a good reputation back then..when I was still Student Council President..and it was good practice for the future." Yuri smiled brightly as the bell rang, and people quickly assembled to their seats.
"Irrashaimasen!"
The Host Club had the club decorated with flowers. Naturally, the girls were in awe, especially Yuri who went off to dreamland with her girl friends. The girls were squealing as they went to their respectable hosts, as Yuri's friends had dragged her to interact with Kyouya. As the girls were chatting with Kyouya, the girl gazed at the flower, and immediately decode the meaning deep within her mind. After hearing how smart her fiance was, she had to see if he made the right choices.
Hitachiin Twins have an Iris and a Magnolia...meaning faith and wisdom for Iris, and the Magnolia meaning dignity...Morinozuka-senpai and Haninozuka-senpai have..the Amaranth and the Buttercup...The Amaranth meaning loyalty, while the Buttercup symbolizes Childishness...Hmm? Fujioka-kun has a Daisy..which means innocence and gentleness.. Yuri thought for a moment, as her eyes widened in shock with Tamaki's flower.
"O-Ootori-san...Is..Suoh-san's flower..really..?" Yuri squeaked as the girls gazed at her oddly. "You let him have the Spider Flower?" she questioned softly, as the girls battered their eyes.
"Yuri-chan, what's wrong?" one of her friends questioned as the girl covered her mouth.
"It means that he wants to elope with his customers!" Yuri whispered to her friends. "..He sounds like a womanizer..."
"Here, Harada-san. This is a special flower for you." Kyouya smiled giving her a red flower, as Yuri took it, and immediately her face flushed.
"Ehh? Kyouya-kun. How come you gave, Yuri-chan a different flower?" one of her friends sighed.
"The one I gave you two, was the Narcissus. I gave Harada-san the Chrysanthemum, since it has a different meaning. Though, you shouldn't be too concerned with the actual meaning." Kyouya explained as the other two girls nodded.
"So...who came up with the idea with this event, Kyouya-kun? It sounded like a unique event." her friend questioned as Kyouya slapped his notebook shut.
"Actually, Tamaki wanted to do something for Valentine's Day, so he wanted ideas for an event to express our gratitude. Of course, we're currently planning our annual cherry blossom viewing festival, would you three like to attend?" Kyouya questioned as the two quickly nodded, as Yuri held the flower, still her face tinted red from embarassment.
He gave my friends the Narcissus, meaning egotism and formality..while..he gave me the red Chrysanthemum...meaning.. 'I love you'... she thought lightly pouting.
"So, what's the meaning to Yuri-chan's flower, Kyouya-kun?" one of her friends questioned.
Yuri sat there in thought as she gazed at the flower. She glanced up, seeing her friends eyeing her for an answer. Biting her lip, she had the urge to scold Kyouya for trying to make her supposebly 'melt'. She placed down her flower gently on the oak wood table, as she slammed her hand next to it, as she arose. She gazed at Kyouya, who was patiently writing down notes in his notebook. The Host Club members turned their attention to her oddly.
"Is this a joke, Ootori-san?! Is it because you think it's so 'thoughtful' for you to give it to me on Valentine's Day, or is it because I'm your freaking fiancee?!" she shouted as she looked down, as her face was bright pink in embarassment. She slumped down as she sighed. "Shoot. I...shouldn't have said that last bit.."
"...Wait...Yuri-san, you're Kyouya-kun's fiancee?" one of the girls questioned.
"AH!! So the rumors are true!" another Host's customer shouted.
"I'm so sorry, Harada-chan! I thought you were going after Tamaki-kun!" another girl shouted, as Yuri was practically mobbed by fangirls who either apologized or congratulated her.
Meanwhile, the Host Club bunched up as they gazed at the little scene. Frankly, it was somewhat odd to watch. The Hitachiin Twins lightly sighed, trying to plug their ears shut, as Hunny was on Mori's shoulders, in awe.
"Hey, Tamaki-senpai? Do you know what your flower's meaning was? I never seen that flower before." Haruhi questioned tilting her head towards the blond.
"...I'm not sure..Kyouya?" Tamaki questioned as Kyouya sighed.
"You chose it because it looked exotic..From what Yuri had said, it ment you wanted your customers to elope with you." Kyouya stated as Tamaki froze up, as he noticed Haruhi's death glare.
"I'm sorry, Haruhi!!" Tamaki shouted trying to pull Haruhi back.
Kyouya stood there silently, seeing Yuri feeling slightly awkward with their customers. He pushed up his glasses as he closed his eyes in thought. He didn't know why he really pulled off that stunt with her. Was it because of sadism? Or..did it really convey his feelings? He sighed lightly, as he remembered that chocolate she gave to him, which he hesitantly ate, due to his somewhat dislike of sugary foods. Though, a thought passed through the Host's mind, which kept him thinking.
Why am I so bent on playing with her?
Is it because she's just a fiancee from a forced engagement?
Or...
Am I really trying to see her real colors and her fabled smile?
