Alright, this is chapter ten, and the only one for a while (i think...) I have work experiance starting tomorrow, then I have coursework for everything to do over the half term... sucks doesn't it?

Anyways, I don't own Ouran, as you know.

Enjoy please :)


It wasn't long before we pulled up outside a huge department store. It was about tree times the size of Harrods in London! Haruhi looked at it in awe too, but Kyouya, Mori and Honey just walked in like they saw it all the time... which, duh, they probably did...

"Well, are you coming or are you going to stand there like morons?" asked Kyouya.

"I think I'm gonna stand here for another five minutes..." I replied.

Haruhi gave a small chuckle before grabbing my arm and pulling me inside. It looked absolutely amazing! It had everything! A housing department, a gardening department, a giant area for children to play and buy toys and things like that, a special section specially for chocoholics (which me and Honey were trying to inch towards, but Mori saw and restrained us) and so much more.

We all went to the clothing department, and as the others went to search for suits, I searched the isles for a dress.

There were so many beautiful ones. A light blue one, that was a soft fabric for the top, but was really puffy at the bottom. There was a yellow one that reminded me of Belle from 'Beauty and the Beast', and then there was an emerald green one that would really make my eyes stand out... and then I saw the one that topped them all.

It was almost like a flamenco ball gown. It had a full tulle skirt, and a halter neck bodice. The skirt was black, but the top was red with a black print, and had a ribbon wrapped around just under the bust. It showed a bit of back, but not much, and tied behind the neck. It was gorgeous.

I looked at the price tag... 43, 024 yen.

That was way too much. If that was just the dress, and then I'd need shoes, make up, I'd have to get my hair styled... It would be way too much.

"Thats a nice dress Sa-Chan. You'd look really cute in that."

"Yea..."

"What's wrong? Is the price scaring you away?"

Always to the point... I turned to Kyouya.

"Yeah, it's the price tag, I mean... I'd never be able to pay you back." I mumbled, showing him the price.

He smiled. Well, smirked.

"It's no problem. The money you've made through being our little gossip girl will more than cover all the expenses of your make-over for the dance. And then some. Would you like to try it on?"

"Uh... sure."

He called to the assistant, who had been peeking over a shelf, and I found myself being marched to a changing room. After fifteen minutes of trying to reach the zip, and then admiring myself in the mirror, I decided to step outside and take what criticism the rich kids would dish out.

Instead, I was met by several pairs of surprised eyes.

It seemed Tamaki and the twins had caught up, because they were there too, gawping at me. Honey had a huge grin on his face, and Mori had a small smile too. Haruhi looked happy that I found a cool dress, and Kyouya seemed to look fairly pleased with himself.

"Wow, Saori. You look hot!" said the twins. They earned themselves a glare from me before they grinned and shrugged.

Tamaki just gawped for a little more, then squeed and commented on how cute I looked.

"You look so cute Sa-Chan, really kawaii ~" Honey gave me a huge grin and I grinned back. He was really cute too.

"Yea, really cute." Mori's input, but it was a lot coming from him.

"You really do look beautiful Saori."

"Thanks Haruhi."

Kyouya looked me up and down, asked me to turn and then nodded.

"I think you'll do. Pick out some shoes and then I'll pay." he said.

"Okay, thanks."

I changed again, then went and picked out some black strappy flats. They did look like plain sandals, but the price tag of 17, 000 yen told me they weren't just normal... they probably had some designer label.

I took them over to where the others were. Kyouya took them and handed them over the cashier, payed for them then carried the bags out of the shop. That was quite nice. Strange. But nice all the same. Then I noticed that non of the guys had bags.

"Why don't you guys have bags?"

"The shop didn't have what we wanted. We're going to a different one to see what they have. We need a woman's opinion on the clothing, so you could come along if you want to."

"Does Haruhi not count as a woman?" I asked, because, she should.

"Not this time. She's still a boy until we find a place to make a suit."

"Whatever."

I agreed and we went to the shop they wanted. It was only small, and pretty open to all public, but Kyouya assured us all it was one of the best and we entered.

It was a cozy little thing, with suits on manikins and fabric on rolls going up the wall, in whites, golds, reds, blues, purples, orange, brown, gray, black and plaid. An old man was sat behind the counter, and he welcomed us all with a courteous bow and a small smile.

"Id like to have six suits tailor made, how long will this take?" asked Kyouya.

"Depending on the size and how long you're willing to stand on the podium... around a day or two for each. Myself and my wife work separately, so we could do two every two days."

"That sounds brilliant. May we pick out the fabric now?"

"Yes, yes, of course young sir."

Mori headed for a small section with navy blue colours, and white shirts. Honey looked for white and pink material.

The twins picked a plaid brown, cream and green colour for waist jackets, and brown for pants.

Tamaki found white and violet material, and was gushing over it saying how it would make his princely charm flourish. Yeah, right.

Kyouya found a black dinner coat. Long tail and everything. He looked at it for a moment, then quietly asked the man if he could try it on. Of course he said yes, and so Kyouya did.

I walked up to him as he looked in the mirror, trying to decide weather he liked it or not.

"What do you think? I said I might need a woman's opinion."

"I think it looks alright. It looks nice on you... you could have a purple tie or something like that then and you'd look all set to go. But why are you after one that already made?"

"I like the look of it;" he said smiling. "Plus it's cheaper than having it made specially. It's all about trying to save time, effort and money of course... with me at least..."

We looked towards the others who were all quite happily having their measurements done by the old man and a woman I assumed was his wife. Haruhi was stood to the side, because Tamaki had said he didn't want people to touch his precious daughter (face-palm, I know) and the twins had already offered her one of their old ones. The reason being is so Kyouya couldn't add more debt to her.

My task was pretty simple now. All I had to do was give my opinion to the guys about what I thought of the colours they had picked. Mori wanted dark blue, which I totally agreed with, because it suited him.

Honey was torn between white and pink or white and red. I said that pink would make him look way cuter, and he just grinned, hugged me around my middle and said 'thanks' before going off to show Mori.

Kyouya had already got his jacket, and all he had to do was get some dress pants to match, and find a suitable purple tie. He sent me on the mission of looking around the small shop for said nice tie. I found one eventually. It was a deep purple, almost like a plum.

Haruhi just stood their with Tamaki, bored and annoyed as he kept ranting on about his 'soon to be white suit'.

How she can stand him, I have no idea. Five minutes with him and I want to bite his head off... when he's hyper though... he can be alright sometimes. Sometimes.

I gave Kyouya the tie, then went off to see what the others were doing. Mori was reaching up to get a tape measure off a shelf for the tailor, and Honey stood slightly away from them smiling cutely like he always did.

I waited with some of the others while the twins were measured. After everyone had their measurements done, we all left to go home. It was getting late and I needed to do my homework.

Great.
