Here's the next chappy! Reviews are always welcome.

"Senky-chan, you should probably go to bed," Kimi advised.

"No…" I said almost half asleep myself as I mashed away at the PS3 controller.

"Have you looked at the time?" she asked bluntly.

"Have you looked at the time?" I asked back, "It's still only midnight."

"It's seven in the morning." She responded with annoyance in her voice.

"Seriously?!" I turned to her, rather shocked, "Have I been play video games all night?"

Kimi and I decided to have a sleep over to celebrate the first day of summer vacation and while she snuggled into bed around one am, I stayed up playing The Last of Us.

"Fine," I yawned and started to lay back on the sofa when my 'Still Alive' ringtone went off.

I heard Kimi groan and I answered it to hear an earsplitting voice.

"SHE'S GONE!" it screamed and my phone wasn't even on speakerphone but Kimi still jumped when she heard the voice, "MY BELOVED DAUGHTER HAS VANISHED OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH! SHE MUST'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY A BAND OF GYPSIES! I JUST KNOW IT! CALL THE POLICE, WE HAVE TO DEPLOY AN EMERGENCY SERACH BY THE SDF!"

"Wait, slow down," I heard Hikaru's voice say which made me heart skip two and a half beats.

"What is it?" Kimi asked, rubbing her eyes.

"A conference call from the Host Club. Tamaki's having a fit." I sighed, rolling my eyes.

"HARUHI'S GONE!" Tamaki finally yelled into the phone and that made my heart stop all together.

"What?!" I asked frantically.

After Tamaki began his hypothesis as to what happened to 'his daughter', we all tried to process it through our brains.

"So Haru-chan is really missing?" Honey asked, his adorable tone being plagued with worry.

"And her family is bankrupt?" Mori repeated rather confused.

"It's the only explanation!" Tamaki yelled, making me cringe once more, "No one will answer when I try to call her home phone number! Something terrible must've happened!"

"Calm down, it's not like we know any of that for sure!" I yawned, "I'm sure everything is under control…"

Just then, Kimi must've unpaused my game because the next thing the hosts heard through the phone were gunshots and screams.

"What was that?!" Tamaki yelled, already on the edge of his seat with worry.

"Are you shooting commoners or something?!" I heard Hikaru asked, still tired himself.

Kimi quickly paused the game again and I threw a piece of popcorn at her.

"Nothing it was just my game," I explained sleepily and there was a long silence.

"That's one screwed up game." I heard Mori say monotonously.

"Anyways, back the topic at hand!" Tamaki continued his rant, "We need to do something now! Haruhi could be dead for all we know!"

"Boss, not so loud!" Hikaru complained, "Have you tried calling her cell phone?"

"A cell phone?" Tamaki seemed to calm down at that but then screamed, "WHY WOULD SHE HAVE A CELL PHONE?!"

"Commoner's have cell phones too, Suoh," I explained rather bluntly.

"Not to interrupt your delusion but, Haruhi is currently in Karuizawa." Kyoya finally told his idiotic friend.

"Oh yeah," I yawned, lying down, "She emailed me a few days ago saying I should visit her."

"WHY ON EARTH DIDN'T YOU TELL ME SOONER!?" Tamaki yelled.

"Because Haruhi didn't want you guys stalking her but if it'll make you shut up, then fine!" I snapped back.

"Way to keep a secret, Senka," Hikaru said sarcastically and I couldn't help but blush.

Finally we all decided to go visit her and I couldn't help but feel a little guilty for ratting her out.

"What was that all about?" Kimi asked, starting to get up.

"The Host Club has decided to pay Haruhi a visit in Karuizawa. You coming with? We're heading off tomorrow." I offered, barely staying awake.

"Sorry Senky-chan! But Renge and I are staking out that day so we can be one of the first to get our hands on the all new dating sims game!" she proudly announced, striking a pose.

"You really are an otaku, you know that?" I mumbled then drifted off to sleep.

"Oh my! What dashing young men you are!" some random cross dresser exclaimed.

Turns out, Haruhi was working at a bed and breakfast in Karuizawa and a cross dressing friend of her father's ran the place. The entire time, Haruhi was giving me an evil glare for dumping the Host Club on them but it was to preserve my eardrums from being blown to bits.

"Why don't you call me Misusuchi?" he exclaimed eccentrically.

"He's an old friend of Haruhi's dad. They used to work together and having Haruhi work here is an easy way to keep tabs on his daughter while he's working through the summer," Kyoya cleared things up.

"And who might you be?" he asked, pinching my cheeks and ignoring the unamused look on my face, "You are truly darling!"

I couldn't help but notice the twins trying not to laugh at me in the background.

"I'm Shenka Miyashaki," I tried to say as he pulled my cheeks apart.

I hate this guy already. I fumed in my head. If this is what Haruhi's dad is like then I should hope that I never have to meet him.

"So what are you doing here anyway?" we asked once we all settled down.

"I work here as an unpaid employee," Haruhi explained to us.

"I don't get it," Hikaru said, puzzled, "You turned down our offer to take you to Bali for this?"

"And we also invited you to go to Switzerland with us," Honey said innocently.

"I still don't have a passport you guys," Haruhi told them as if she had told them a thousand times before.

"Ok but I have another question." I said, leaning close to Haruhi, "Why was your cell phone turned off?! I tried calling you three times but you never picked up!"

"I guess I didn't think about it," Haruhi admitted.

"Did you say…you had a cell phone?" Tamaki asked, walking up to see her cell phone with a depressed aura about him.

"We convinced her she should borrow one of ours so we could keep in touch," Hikaru explained.

"It's part of friends in family plan." Kaoru added.

"Yeah she's in our top five," Hikaru added on at the end to freak Tamaki out.

Tamaki just went back into his depressed state and curled up on the ground.

"Anyways, why are you all here anyway, don't I have a right to spend the summer the way I want to?" Haruhi complained when a menacing voice cut in.

"According to the handbook, jobs are prohibited." Kyoya said, consulting the small rule book for Ouran High.

"I…had no idea!" Haruhi said, beginning to look very pale.

"You may have the freedom to spend your summer however you want but then again, so do we." Tamaki said with a plan forming in his head, "And I for one find Misusu very charming."

Haruhi had a look on her face that seemed like she wanted to scream, 'NOOOOOO!'

"I'm so sorry." Misusu apologized, "I wish I could have all of you stay but I'm afraid that there's only one vacant guest room left!"

"Only one room left, huh? Then I'll have to stay here to represent the club!" Tamaki announced.

Of course this never flew for the rest of the club and they all protested almost immediately.

"Here's an idea," Kaoru suggested after everyone had stated their obvious objections to Tamaki,

"Why not hold a contest to see who can stay in the vacant room? We just lend a hand around here and whoever makes the best impression on Misusu gets the room."

"That's BRILLIANT!" Misusu squealed, "I think it's an absolutely marvelous idea! Yes! The winner of the contest will be determined by how refreshing they are! Remember, refreshing is the name of the game! Now don't think this is going to be easy because I plan on working you guys to the bone!"

I sighed, suddenly visiting Haruhi maybe wasn't the best idea in the world. If it meant that the Host Club would have another silly competition, they I wanted to go home. It would've been so much easier to have Kimi around and Haruhi wasn't giving me very nice looks so I was on my own. I spent my afternoon outside, scrolling through some new models the Perazzi SCO had just come out with and exploring Tumblr. It had been a few hours when Haruhi finally decided to make up with me.

"I thought you didn't want anything to do with me," I joked as she walked over to my table.

"Look, I think I can let that go, Senka. I think I'd do the same to you if Tamaki was yelling on the phone at me too." She sighed.

"So where are you staying while you're here?" she asked.

"I have a cottage rented out like everyone else." I said, typing away on a new chapter.

"Wait…what do you mean 'like everyone else'?" she asked suspiciously.

"Oh yeah, all the hosts have cottages in the area. It seems pretty stupid that they want to stay here though!" I laughed.

"So do you have any idea who might win?" she asked me.

"Let's see…" I thought out loud, "Tamaki's out because he isn't naturally a hard worker, Honey's idea of cute isn't Misusu's idea of refreshing, the twins have a pretty good shot at it, Kyoya isn't competing, and Mori also has a good chance of winning."

"Are you rooting for anyone in particular?" she asked curiously.

The twins. I said in my head but responded with a 'no'.

"I can taste it now." I heard a raspy voice say, "Victory shall be ours."

I looked over to see the twins, sitting right next to me! They had a way of sneaking up on me and it was unbelievable how they could pull it off!

"Yeah, except I couldn't help but notice that the vacant room is a single bedroom." Haruhi pointed out.

"No big deal, we can just squeeze into the single bed." Kaoru said.

"Wow, you two are always together, huh?" I asked, surprised.

"Always…" Kaoru repeated with a distant look in his eye.

"The two of us have been together since birth so we never needed anyone else." Hikaru continued on for his brother.

"We didn't start making friends until a few years ago. We thought the world was made up of idiots," Kaoru added with a cheeky grin.

"But then…" Hikaru said, turning his hazel eyes towards me, "Well that was before we met you. We'd totally let you sleep with us."

I had to bury my face into my laptop to hide the dark maroon color that overtook my face. The twins and Haruhi eventually went off to do some more chores and I wrote until dusk seeped into the sky. That's when I heard a piano music from the lobby. I peeked through the window to see Tamaki winning the contest with amazing piano skills that I didn't even know he had!

"Hey Senka!" two harmonic voices cooed and I felt two elbows prop up against my shoulders.

"We need your help with something," Hikaru said with a mischievous look in his eye.

"With what?" I asked, snapping my laptop shut.

"I told Hikaru about your acting skills…" Kaoru began to say when I interrupted.

"You WHAT?!" I said, a blush creeping onto my face, "W-why did you do that!?"

"Relax, we just need those acting skills to be put to use." Hkaru cooed, "It'll help us win against the Boss."

I was stationed under a window and was told to be hanging out with Kaoru for our little act.

"Kaoru?" I heard Haruhi's voice say, "You're out here with Senka? Where's Hikaru?"

"He went to go get some trash bags," Kaoru said, going right along with the script.

Haruhi took the opportunity to put down the laundry basket she was carrying and take a little break.

"Do you still think you'll win? Tamaki's putting on a pretty good show in there." Haruhi said.

"I don't know," Kaoru replied rather pensively, "The Boss didn't even know this place had a piano."

Then, two girls opened the window above me (right as I told them to when I bribed them) making a flower vase fall from the ledge. I went to acting mode and pretended to look shocked as Kaoru pushed me out of the way.

"Kaoru!" Hikaru called right on cue and ran up to his brother, "You're hurt, let me see."

Normally I would tune out of their brotherly love act but this one seemed to be pretty genuine. Kaoru's cut was real and Hikaru looked pretty worried.

"I'm fine, it's only a little cut," Kaoru said.

Hikaru sighed in relief and put his head on his twin's shoulder.

"Don't scare me like that." He said affectionately

"Hey…I'm sorry…do you forgive me?" Kaoru asked and the two nuzzled heads which I have to admit was pretty freaking cute.

"BRAVO! BRAVO!" an eccentric voice came from the roof.

"One hundred points for refreshing brotherly love and the award goes to: the Hitachiin brothers!" Misusu shouted from the rooftop like a madwoman.

"Congrads you guys," Haruhi said emotionlessly.

"Oh, it was nothing, "the two snickered, leaning on me once again.

"Wait…" Haruhi said with a shocked expression, "You mean that whole thing…was staged?!"

"Well now, who could say?" they cooed evilly back at her.

"We couldn't have done it without you, Senka," Kaoru said devilishly, "Thanks. And as a reward..."

"You can share the guest room with us." Hikaru finished off.

"W-what?! I screamed, "But that bed is already t-tiny enough you can't expect me to…I wouldn't have…"

The two just dragged me off like a ragdoll as I called for Haruhi for help.

"That's what you get for playing with devils, Senka," she sighed.

Senka: Noooo!

Twins: Calm down. It's not like THAT. We just want to reward you!

Senka: Fine but I'm sleeping pressed up against the wall and no where near you two!

Twins: Okaaaaay...

Senka: -.-

Twins: Next time, Mornings and Murderous Intents
