"HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARUHI!"There in her apartment stood each member of the host club standing with Ranka around a gaint cake

'Oh great...'Haruhi felt like her brain was on fire when she saw that huge cake and felt her heavy books in her hands

'I really wanted to study...'Haruhi dropped her book bag at the door and walked over to them all

"Happy birthday Haru-chan!'Honey gave her a slight wink

"Happy birthday Haruhi! Come give you're daddy a hug!"Tamaki blurred out as he opened his arms

"No touching my daughter!"Ranka pushed Tamaki out of the way and grabbed Haruhi into a tight hug

"Happy birthday"Mori have her a sweet yet stoic smile

"Happy Birthday!"

"Ha"

"Ru"

'Hi!"Hikaru and Kaoru stood side by side grinning like cats as they wished her a happy birthday

"Happy birthday Haruhi"Kyoya was the last to congradulate her with a rare smile on his lips

"Thanks everyone..."Haruhi managed to get her father to let her go long enough for them all to crowd around her in the living room

"Haru-chan why don't you open our gifts!"Honey had a very excited and proud look in his eyes as he looked at her

"Yes! Open mine first!"Tamaki grabbed his present out of no where and dropped it into her lap

"This is heavy..."Haruhi stared down at the box in her lap and couldn't help but start to worry

'This better not be something insane...'Haruhi prayed as she started to peal the wrapping off

"A rice cooker?"Haruhi held the rice cooker in her hands and stared at it in shock

"I thought maybe it'd make things easier for you! It cooks it 20% faster and even has a brown rice setting!"Tamaki started pointing out all the features listed on the side of the box to her

"Oh wow.. thanks, I really thought you'd go over the top"Haruhi smiled feeling good about having an actual normal gift

"Actually.. I got you some rice too.."Tamakis face fell as he pushed his fingers together nervously

"How many?"Haruhi asked thinking that he really didn't go over the tope this time

"20"Tamaki mummbled softly

"A 20 pound bag? Oh that'll last a few months, thanks"Haruhi smiled thinking she'd actually not have to drag home another bag of that

"No mm.. 20 bags of 50 pound rice.."Tamaki curled up into a ball and slowly started to scoot away

"Idiot.."And that was it

"I'm so sorry Haruhi! I'll cook it all right now so that you don't have to do it! I'm so sorry!"Tamaki yelled as he rushed off into the kitchen where Ranka had piled up all the bags of rice which was starting to look like a feild of rice

"Great, I can open my own rice ball shop"Haruhi voice was nothing but sacastic as she placed her new rice cooker on the side

"Haruhi"Kaoru took Tamakis place next to her, his hands behind his back

"Oh I'm sorry Kaoru, I'll open you're next"Haruhi had a light blush on her face as she remember their kiss. Kaoru nodded

"Here you go"

Tracey4t it's you're turn
