Chapter 2
'crap' I thought as I was running to the host club 'I'm late' I thought as I reached the hallway that lead to the 3rd music room and when I managed to finally open the doors I found myself in a tropical forest
"welcome" the other hosts said including haruhi but the other hosts were all wearing costumes well besides haruhi and I was basically a little surprised
"oh it's yuki you're even later than Haruhi" the twins said
"Sorry I had something I needed to take care of" I said then a bird flew by my head and I looked surprised "was that real?" I asked
"yep" Kyoya said and I smiled
"oh my gosh it so cute" I said running over to a bunch of tropical animals and the host club seemed surprised
"yuki tends to have a weakness for animals at times" Haruhi explained
"isn't this little guy just so cute" I said holding up a little monkey with a smile on my face
"so cute" tamaki said hugging me
"could you please let me go" I said calmly
"oh sorry" tamaki said letting me go
Later
"yuki why aren't you and haruhi wearing costumes like the others?" some of the girls around my table said
"well haruhi and I like stay true to the seasons and so we decided to save the club some money and not rent some costumes" I said smiling as a tropical bird landed on my extended arm.
"you're so good with animals Yuki" another girl said and I smiled
"nature is one of the many beauties of the world though even the beauties of nature can't seem to measure up to the beauty of your eyes" I said smiling and the girls blushed and nearly fainted
"so yuki are you going to the party?" one of the girls said
"well" I said with a thinking look as I closed my eyes "as long as I can dance with all of you I wouldn't miss it for the world" I said smiling and they all gushed at that as I smiled
Later
"so you're really putting on a party" I asked tilting my head
"yeah" kaoru said nodding
"really I can't wait" I said smiling as I spun around then I stopped "I've had too much sugar" I said with a sad look on my face
"but you got to admit you've been doing pretty good with the clients when your hyper" Kyoya said and I glared at him
"oh well, round and round and round again the time of fun will soon begin" I said with a shrug
"what does that mean" Kyoya asked casually glancing up from his computer
"don't know I just thought of it wasn't it awesome" I said giggling then I looked depressed "I'm starting to act like tamaki this sucks" I said with a sad face then I place a hand on my head as a thought popped in to my head "hey could one of you guys help me learn how to dance the waltz?"
"you mean you can't dance?" hikaru asked
"well I can but only as the girl part I've never tried dancing as the male and the male has the lead does he not so I need to practice if I don't want to hurt anyone at the party and haruhi doesn't have any dancing experience"
"wait you mean I have to go too isn't only one of us enough?" haruhi said with a worried look on her face
"no worries haruhi" I said smiling "I'm sure you and I can become dancing experts in the waltz by the end of the week" I said then I fell to the ground "I hate sugar" I said with an annoyed look on my face as I stared at the ceiling
"why's that Yuki-chan?" honey asked
"simple I hate the sudden crash once the sugar rush had ended" I said with a yawn "so sleepy" I said rolling on to my side and falling asleep
"yuki" haruhi said trying to wake me up a bit later "come on it's time to go home now" haruhi said and I slowly woke up
"right, sorry for falling asleep on ya little sister" I said with a soft smile on my face as I sat up and looked at haruhi who smiled back
"so cute" I could hear tamaki say
"well let's head home then" I said standing up
The next day we had a couple of our customers come in and they helped us learn how to dance properly but at that time tamaki was rather depressed not only because the girl that was with haruhi used to be his customer but because he wanted to teach haruhi how to dance.
"I must thank you for helping me remember how to dance. It's been so long since I last had a proper dance partner so I you have my thanks" I said bowing to the girl who had helped me for after a few moments I thought of a trick and I instantly became an expert with dancing. And soon my dance lessons had ended so I helped the others in any way I could before I walked up to tamaki who was sitting in a window seat and I leaned against the wall beside him "you know you shouldn't be depressed" I said calmly and tamaki looked at me slightly surprised "in all honestly I should thank you normally haruhi is really quiet and only talks when studying or answering questions." I said with a smile as I watch haruhi as she danced nervously as she was looking at her feet "you're allowing her more room to grow than I could give her before."
"I guess if you put it that way then this is rather helpful huh" tamaki said and I smiled again only this time I closed my eyes before I looked down at him
"even though she may be dressed like a cross dresser haruhi is still haruhi she's only acting as herself since she doesn't know how else to act." I said as I stood up straight "so don't be jealous of it haruhi has always had the ability to charm people by just talking to them and I'd be lying if I said I didn't have that ability too. I'm just more used to using it in order to defend our father otherwise if things resulted in violence I've learned how to fight back" I said as my eyes hardened slightly but then I calmed down as I closed my eyes "just accept her the way she is for that is all haruhi can be." I said before I walked away to the back room
But then later that day after the dancing lessons had come to an end.
As I was sitting in a window sill thinking over some things a boy walked in and apparently he was an heir to a first class table ware company and the fiancé to the girl that was teaching haruhi to dance.
"Kyoya can you tell me again the date of the ball?" I asked since Kyoya was standing beside me
"it's this weekend why does show come conflict in your schedule?" Kyoya asked pushing up his glasses
"yes actually" I said with a sad look on my face "but I guess I can tell the boys that I can't make it" I said with a sigh
"Boys?" the twins said walking up
"what boys?" tamaki asked appearing in front of me as well
"she's talking about the members of her band all of them are boys besides her" haruhi clarified calmly "so she's used to being like one of the boys that and we grew up in a neighborhood where she made a lot of friends with the local boys"
"WHAT?" tamaki yelled
"It's no big deal in all honesty they all act like my older brothers which kind of makes me feel sorry for any boy who tries to take me out." I said with a nervous laugh
"now that I think about it it's almost like you have your own personal army" haruhi said tilting her head slightly
"nah their all just my buds" I said smiling then I looked out the window "that delivery truck"
"huh" the boys said
"what about it it's just a truck delivering some supplies we ordered" the twins said
"it can't be but it is!" I said happily as I opened the window "hey Soma!" I yelled out and the driver looked out the window and waved
"soma?" haruhi said surprised "he's here?" she asked looking out the window as well as I ran out of the room and then the host club could see me running up to the driver of the truck and hugging them before I dragged them back up to the third music room
"hey guys this is soma" I said opening the doors and the club looked surprised as the boy took off his hat and revealed his slightly shaggy red locks as his blue eyes looked cold and his face was smiling
"nice to meet you" he said in a deep voice as tamaki, and the twins seemed to gulp in fear
"soma these are haruhi's and my friends from school" I said happily
"you hurt the fujioka girls and I'll hurt you" Soma said still smiling
"soma be nice" I said punching his shoulder and he sighed
"I have to get back to work now yuki it was nice seeing you and haruhi again" he said walking out
"see ya soma" I said happily then I looked back at the host club only to see tamaki and the twins hiding behind mori "what's wrong with you guys?" I asked tilting my head slightly
"it would seem that your friend intimidated them" Kyoya said calmly and I sighed
"yeah he tends to do that to people he doesn't know" I said smiling with a sweat drop on my head.
One week later
"it is so good to see you here tonight my little lambs. The ouran Host club would like to bid you.." Tamaki started to say as we all stood in a dark hall that had been cleared and decorated for the party and then suddenly as he was beginning to bow a spot light flashed on to him "welcome" he finished soon all the lights were turned on as the orchestra began to play. And the rest of us who were standing on the stair cases below tamaki bowed as well. Though once we were all standing straight again Kyoya began to speak
"as always ladies the host club members are here for your entertainment. So we invite you to dance to your heart's content. Then based on her dancing skills one lucky young princes will be chosen as tonight's queen. The queen's reward will be a passionate kiss on the cheek from our king."
"good luck to you my darlings" tamaki said winking and one cue the girls started to faint left and right, as I had a sweat drop on my head.
'I'm almost offended to clam my own gender at this point.' I thought as I sighed
"something wrong yuki?" haruhi asked and I looked at her for a moment then I smiled and shook my head
"no it's nothing" I said looking up at a chandelier.
Tonight haruhi was wearing a brown dress jacket over a blue stripped vest that was over a white shirt and purple tie while she also had on a pair of tan pants and black dress shoes. I on the other hand was wearing a simple grey dress shirt with a dark purple tie under a simple dark blue vest and a black dress jacket with a matching pair of pants and black dance shoes
"haruhi show some enthusiasm" hikaru and kaoru said standing behind haruhi slightly
"well excuse me you guys, I'm sorry but I'm not used to this sort of thing" haruhi and I chuckled slightly
"it's true the closest to this kind of event that haruhi's ever been to is the local festival in town." I said smiling
"Then what about you?" hunny asked walking up to me
"the closest I've been to this sort of event would have to be… oh when my band and I played at the local bar man that was a hoot" I said laughing "but now we prefer to play at the restaurant next door. There were just too many drunk fools at the bar not to mention my dad was there too, uh that was embarrassing" I said with a hand on my head
"I don't know if you can consider ether of those as parties or not. Well since you're already here you might as well get yourself something to eat. We've got quite the spread" Kyoya said and haruhi and I looked surprised
"a spread?" haruhi asked
"with fancy tuna?" haruhi and I asked at the same time only to have Kyoya break his pin and every one start to freak out
"fan" the twins started
"cy" hunny continued
"tuna?" tamaki finished before he jumped over the railing in front of him and landed a few feet from us. "get some fancy tuna here right now" he ordered Kyoya who was pulling out his phone.
And as that was going on the twins were hugging haruhi with hunny and mori nearby, the twins were actually kind of nuzzling haruhi's head as they repeated
"you poor little dears" they even had tears in their eyes for crying out loud
'well with the humiliation set aside this scene is actually rather funny' I thought smiling then I looked out at the girls and smiled "come on let's go have some fun" I said running down the stairs happily
"huh yuki wait for me" haruhi said running after me and I waited for her in the middle of the stair way then we made our way to the dance floor and started to talk with the girls and even started to dance with them, and soon the others had joined us on the dance floor.
