Sunny Days, Part 2
A/N: I do not own the Ouran High School Host Club.
"Rizu-san! Watch out!" Haruhi yelled. Rizu looked up from the fashion magazine she was reading in time to see a beach ball zooming in on her. Not having any time to react, the ball smacked her right on the forehead. The shock from it caused her to go backwards and fall on her behind. Groaning, she got up and brushed herself off. Tamaki had hidden himself behind Mori and the twins were looking off into the distance. Grabbing the ball, she walked over to them.
"So, you want this ball back, right?" Rizu inquired. No one said a word. Honey walked over to Rizu and looked up at her, tears growing in his eyes.
"Oh, Rizu-chan... It's my fault! I was just trying to show Usa-chan how to spike the b-b-all.." Honey tried saying, the end getting drowned out with his crying. Rizu wasn't really mad to begin with and after seeing Honey crying, she handed him the ball and told him it was alright. Never had she seen a person go from sad to happy as fast as Honey did. He skipped off, tossing the ball to Mori. The twins had shifted away from the scene as nothing interesting had happen. Haruhi asked Rizu if she was ok and then made her way to get Tamaki out of hiding and to get some drinks for everyone. Rizu walked over to where her magazine laid and picked it up. Making her way to the closest beach chair, she made herself comfortable. Until...
"I don't understand why Tamaki was afraid of you after you were hit." Kyoya's voice said, from the right side of her. Rizu looked over and silently sighed as she didn't realized she was sitting right next to Kyoya.
"I might have told him beforehand that I could chase him down if he upset me. Of course, I would never do so." Rizu remarked, looking back into her magazine. She hoped that he would take the hint and leave her alone.
"That's right. You were the team captain of the LaVera Academy's track team. I hear you've won four of the past five tournaments." Kyoya stated. Her eyes drifted towards him and she saw a small smile on his face as he realized that he had surprised her with knowledge of this. "Don't worry. Most everything I have on file was what Tamaki had told me. Of course... He was quite quiet on most parts of your life."
"Everything...On file?" Rizu stammered. "You mean that you have a file with most of my personal information on it?! That has got to be against the law!" Kyoya chuckled as he shook his head.
"I simply asked Tamaki about you," he replied. "There is nothing illegal with that. Besides, I already knew about the reason you were coming here before Tamaki told me. The ladies seem to like seeing Tamaki's cousin hanging out with the Hosts. It's rare when a female is in the music room for purposes other than being entertained by the Hosts."
"What about Haruhi-chan? She's obviously a girl." Rizu asked, deciding to let the topic of legalities drop for now. "How is it that the other girls don't notice?" Kyoya pointed towards Haruhi, as she had just wrapped a towel around her body. With the short hair and undefined body, Rizu could see how she was mistaken for a boy. After a few seconds, Haruhi turned towards Rizu and waved. She trekked to the shaded spot and sat on a vacant towel.
"Rizu-chan, Kyoya-sempai. Why aren't you guys enjoying the ocean water?" Haruhi inquired. "I'm sure Kaoru and Hikaru won't try to dunk you like they did Tamaki." Rizu smiled as she looked over towards her cousin, who was sporting a huge starfish on his head, and the twins, who were in tears from laughing so hard.
"Pardon me if I decide not to go into the ocean. I have some paperwork that needs completing," Kyoya stated, as he got up from the chair and started towards the resort. Haruhi frowned until she looked at Rizu. Rizu was too caught up in watching Kyoya walk off that she didn't see Haruhi grinning from ear to ear.
"What is that look for?" Rizu questioned when she looked at Haruhi. Haruhi shrugged nonchalantly as Tamaki made his way over to the girls.
"Rizu-san, daughter..." he slowly said through gritted teeth. "Next time we go to the beach, remind Kyoya NOT to invite them." The girls giggled. Tamaki asked Rizu if she had plans for the night and was happy to hear that she had none. Then he told her and Haruhi that the two of them were to hold a "commoner's sleepover" along with the rule that Rizu was to "make over" his darling daughter. Haruhi groaned loudly but Tamaki didn't hear it. Rizu agreed to it and, after Tamaki walked back over to where a few girls were sunbathing, told Haruhi not to worry about the makeover.
A/N: Sorry for the long delay. But I've been super busy with things like life, Neo Steam (it's a MMORPG; I recommend it to any fans of the genre), and other small things. Next chapter will be the sleepover. I'll give more background information about Rizu then. ^_^
