Chapter 3: An order to fulfil
Disclaimer : I don't own OHSHC I own the shitty humour, Sonya, the other OC's and the story.
A/N: Sorry for the length, the next will be longer hopefully.
Kyoya walked over to the next class on his schedule "Advanced English" after which he would be attending host club duties.
English was one of his strong subjects (even though he was strong in all subjects for that matter), it was one of his favourites, Physics and German being the other two.
He took his seat next to a very ecstatic Tamaki. He wouldn't need to ask the reason Tamaki had blooms all around him because as soon as Tamaki noticed him he jumped "Mommy! Haruhi's taking me to that commoner place what was its name?—Burger queen!" Tamaki was undoubtedly in his seventh heaven,
Kyoya sat down next to him nodding now and then at Tamaki who babbled on about how he always wanted to go out with Haruhi and something about commoner burgers having the sweat of the ones who cooked it, which was disgusting, making it more tasty; but Kyoya's attention was toward reviewing his notes.
The teacher entered and pulled a pop quiz, much to Tamaki's dismay.
He wailed as he tried to recollect information, frantically biting his nails and writing down what seemed to be scribbling and cutting down whatever written, while Kyoya pushed up his glasses and wrote down every single detail.
Once the test was over Tamaki looked at Kyoya sniffling.
"you! you knew this would happen and didn't warn me"
"I didn't want to burst your bubble" Kyoya stated smiling at him. "We should get going, we have host duties"
It was the first Saturday of the month, meaning that the host club would be open for service. This month's theme was 'Ancient China' and the hosts were to be dressed up as the members of the Chinese zodiac.
"wuaa Haru-chan you look so cute!" Hunny marvelled, twirling around in his own outfit.
Haruhi awkwardly smiled. "Really?" She was made the dog, one of the creatures of the zodiac . Haruhi wore a traditional Chinese Hanfu, which was brown and had her hair done in a long tail like fashion which was held by fabric rolled around it on two ends. For specification of the zodiac she portrayed, she wore dog ears and paws.
"you too Hunny-sempai" She smiled.
"Thank you!~" Hunny wore a yellow Chinese Hanfu, laden with expensive embroidery all around it ,the expensive cloth bore black flowers printed on it and a Chinese symbol at the back, which represented a rabbit. Hunny wore long white bunny ears which were with pink fur on the inside, to complete the look. He did look quite adorable.
"Takashi! Are you done yet?" Hunny asked in his own sugar-coated voice, to the person who was still in the changing room.
"Ah" Came the reply. After a pregnant pause, Takashi stepped out. His expression was as stoic as usual.
"Takashi! You look adorable!" Hunny cheered.
"Mori-sempai you look nice" Haruhi complimented with a smile.
"Thank you" Mori said bluntly. Similar to the rest's costumes, he wore a Chinese Hanfu which was blue with white patterns printed on it, which went down to his ankle and wooden slippers. His Hanfu had the Chinese symbol for 'rat' imprinted on its back. He wore rat ears to make it a obvious that he portrayed one.
The host club was set in ancient china and like always, every detail was taken into account with the decoration. It was made to look like the interior of an ancient Chinese restaurant; wooden furniture were set and large old paintings were hung on each wall. The pretty red lanterns provided dim light as well as proper decoration for the ceiling. Kyoya really was talented when it came to these things.
"What does this painting symbolize Kyoya-kun?" asked Kyouya's client pointing at the painting which depicted five bats on a branch. The painting was no doubt done by an expert. The paint used looked incredibly expensive, the bats looked real but at the same time were more beautiful than real ones.
Kyoya gave a host club smile "Bats represent good luck in Chinese, the word bat for them, sounds similar to good luck" He said pushing up his glasses "as for the painting, you can see that there are five bats shown together, it represents five blessings; a long life, riches, health, love of virtue and a natural death"
"I see" The girl said looking at the painting. Then she looked at him.
"you portray the dragon, why so?" All she did was ask questions but Kyoya preferred answering questions rather than having a tiring conversation which he was too lazy to carry out.
"The dragon is the intellectual one, and from what I've experienced in the host club, I'm undoubtedly the most intellectual" Kyoya stated.
"I guess that's true" the girl smiled.
Haruhi had a fair amount of clients each time; it'd be amusing when the girls came to know that Haruhi was in fact, a girl, several hearts would be shattered and more so of the girls she'd helped during the beach trip, who were now convinced that Haruhi was their knight in shining armour.
"Haruhi-kun you look so nice!" The girls fawned over Haruhi, to which he/she only smiled charmingly and replied politely.
The host club door creaked and the girl who stood in front, sweat dropped.
"Sonya-chan!" Haruhi got up to invite her in, leaving her clients abruptly.
Once she stood next to Sonya Haruhi smiled. "You came"
"w-why is it so sparkly" Sonya squinted. The sparkles were hurting her eye which was emanating from a certain blonde and his clients.
Haruhi had invited her into this place and she decided to drop-by. She didn't know whether Haruhi now considered her a friend or not but after sitting through a class together, Sonya concluded that Haruhi was the only normal, sane, person around here (also the first to talk to her properly). So when she invited her into music-room 3, she was only too happy to accept, one, because she was possibly making a friend after god knew how long, and two, because she loved the guitar, hopefully they would have a guitar there and Sonya would sing duets with her new-found friend, which would seal the deal that they were in fact friends.
"I see, Haruhi has brought a customer" Sonya's little thinking cloud puffed out, by the interruption.
Sonya turned to look at the one speaking and immediately recognized him.
Kyoya's glasses glinted in recognition too.
"Good to see you again Miss Eaves" Kyoya greeted his glasses still glinting which made Sonya think he was conspiring or something. Wait. "How'd you know my—"
"An introduction would be necessary as you are a new customer" He smiled. For some reason Sonya did not in the least feel comforted with that smile.
Her eyes darted to the black notebook he held in his hand. She debated whether she should ask if it was hers, but it was entirely possible that, just by coincidence they owned two identical black notebooks, she decided that the latter was more convincing because she was sure she'd kept the report book safely in her bag. Even if it was hers, all she'd written was the entry from earlier today and some doodles of Haruhi and her.
Haruhi and the pervert glasses guy were still looking at her for her response so she curtly nodded.
And then the introductions started. She didn't know why she was given extra attention and politeness by Kyoya (maybe because he didn't want to come across as a perverted jerk), and why he was patiently explaining what seemed to-be the … type of the hosts.
Then she wondered, Just how did she end up in a host club?
"You may enter" Yoshio said.
Kyoya already knew why he had been called. He already knew what he was going to be told to do and hopefully Kyoya had laid out the foundation.
"You called father?"
"I assume that you are aware of the fact that our company is slowly being over powered by the likes of the Tonnerre group?"
"I am"
"And I suppose you know what to do"
"The Hiromi company" Kyoya stated.
Yoshio nodded "your marriage, so I expect you make that girl fall for you. I don't want news headlines proclaiming that a marriage was conducted without consent of the bride. I've seen how difficult she is"
-Entry 2: Today I somehow ended up in a host club, it was very weird. I have a feeling I'll somehow end up there again. I punched a blonde guy (who was a host) for invading my personnel-space, I know he was doing his job, but he came waay to close. And I was greeted by these really mean glares from the girls after I had punched him, he actually went into a corner and sulked (Not to mention a pair of incest twins, who too were hosts, found it hysterically amusing). The only nice thing was that I met Haruhi today. You know the girl I wrote about? The one into cross-dressing? Everyone seems convinced that she's a boy. I don't really care though as long as she'll be my friend. No, I am not lonely.-
