Haruhi/Tamaki
The Princess and the King: Part VIII
It was no lie that Tamaki was the King of the Host Club, but it was a secret that Haruhi was the Princess of the Host Club. Their secret princess. But she had no Prince. Only a king. But there was no telling if she wanted the King.
Haruhi wasn't aware of her status as the Host Club Princess. She wasn't aware of their overprotectiveness aside from Tamaki's. Then again Tamaki was pretty open about his protectiveness with the parka at Kyoya's jungle spa park.
Tamaki really liked Haruhi. Hanging out with Haruhi was refreshing. She had such different beliefs. She was less interested in appearance and more in the person themselves. She really grew up in a different world. It fascinated Tamaki.
Haruhi was rarely impressed with Tamaki's dramatics. She wasn't impressed with the Bali getup, or the Arabian getup…. okay she wasn't interested in any of their cosplay. She was interested in what inspired them.
Tamaki seemed to be deeper than he appeared, so just as Haruhi had caught Tamaki's interest with her different views, Tamaki caught Haruhi's interest with his depth.
