Mix Seventeen: New Love, Old Friends and A Plan in motion

"Sure, that sounds a lot of fun." Tamaki said. "We can go to the arcade and play Uki Doki Memorial Fighter 8."

"No, Rene I don't mean like a regular outing!" Sally said running a hand through her hair. "Damn it Rene I…I…" she did not say anything more but let her actions speak louder than her words as she pressed her lips to his.

Tamaki's eye widened at the sensation of Sally's lips upon his. He was not sure, if he should push her away or if he should respond to them. It was almost as if this was unreal. His hand came up to rest on her cheek and he deepened the kiss.

Sally's face flared up red; she could not believe that a bold move resulted in the two of them sharing a kiss. She wanted to melt deeply into his embrace; her eyes began to flutter closed.

A few seconds later, the two teens pulled apart and stared at one another. Silence passed between the two before they looked away from each other.

"Rene I'm so…" Sally gasped when Tamaki place a finger to her lips to shush her.

"Sally, I have wanted to do that for a long time," Tamaki answered though he released her and blushed more. "I had no idea you felt the same way I felt for you."

Sally blushed more but shoved him. "Are you kidding me dude? I've wanted to kiss you for months now and I had no idea how to do it so I just said fuck it and did it on a whim."

Tamaki laughed quietly. "I believe that we've fulfilled a requirement of our friendship?"

"Dude we're more than friends now," Sally whispered. "We are uh…you're my…"

"I'm your bae?"

Sally's eyes widened and she shook her head rapidly. "First of all you're my boyfriend not my bae." She frowned. "And second don't ever say that word again; I happen to hate that word."

"All right my princess." Tamaki took her hand and kissed it. "Now shouldn't we go back to the music room now? I believe that the others are waiting for us."

"Right we should…but what about Kyo?" Sally asked. "He's going to stay on that balcony all day being lonely."

"Yes we should," Tamaki then looked at her seriously. "And you need to apologize for punching him."

"Do I have to?" Sally whined.

"Yes."

"Ugh fine but I think I should've hit him harder if he chose to follow merits rather than find the girl he loves." Sally released Tamaki's hand, turned to him and kissed him on the forehead. "We're his friends so we need to do all we can to help."

Tamaki nodded. "That's right."

The two of them headed off to the balcony and found Kyouya still standing there looking over the horizon.

"Hey Kyouya!"

Kyouya turned around and groaned though he glared at Sally. "Come to finish off the job Miss Moore?"

"If I wanted to finish you off then I would've," Sally took two steps and looked him dead in the eyes. "I am sorry for hitting you, I really let my anger get the best of me and it's better that we get along rather than get angry at one another….even if one of us was being a pain in the ass who has a daddy complex…"

"Sally!"

"But I really want to be your friend and I don't want to hurt you unless you deserve an ass beating to get a point through that thick ass skull of yours." Sally then hugged him. "Kyo I care about you and your happiness which is why I still think you should find that girl you like."

"I cannot."

"Whatever I'll drop it for now," Sally then walked to the door. "But if you want to pretend as though you don't have strong feelings for your bae then you need to get over her and quick. Plenty of girls around here are expert dick riders and would love a turn on yours."

"Sally, I thought you said you hated the word bae!" Tamaki took off after her. "And why would someone want to ride Kyouya's cousin Richard?"

"Dude you need to get out more."

Kyouya watched the two leave before looking out at the horizon. He sighed softly all the while thinking over the words spoken. Maybe that girl was right…maybe he should find his promise girl rather than following rules. It could not hurt to try.

"Damn I'm hungry."

Sally stretched putting her hands behind her head as she walked out into the afternoon sun. She had spent part of the afternoon with the host club indulging in their theme of romance and small talk. However, she hated walking home alone since Tamaki needed to go meet his father in his office.

"I wonder if Mickey D's will be good enough for a pre-dinner snack." She looked in the horizon and took note of a girl standing near the gates. She raised an eyebrow and snuck over to some bushes, that girl looked familiar but at the same time, she looked suspicious. "What is she doing?"

The girl looked around before she leaned against the wall with a small smile playing on her lips. Her eyes sparkled with an almost look of love mixed with shyness as she waited. Her maroon skirt danced gently in the breeze. "Is he going to leave this way?" she whispered to herself.

"Takashi, let's eat cake today." Honey looked down at his cousin as they exited the building and walked down the long pathway towards the gates. "And we can invite Chika-chan and Sato-chan too!"

"Yeah."

Honey looked up and saw the girl waiting at the gate. His eyes filled with happiness and he waved energetically. "Hi Lobelia-chan!" he called out brightly.

The girl gave an audible gasp and dove into the bushes so to avoid the two boys stopping to speak with her. She held her breath and watched as they stopped for a moment to look around.

"Takashi, where did Lobelia-chan go?" Honey asked. "She just disappeared into thin air like a magician."

"She ran off."

The two hosts began walking again heading off to go home for the day, their conversation of what their plans for the evening resumed.

"That was close, if they saw me I would've began blathering like an idiot." The girl popped her head out of the bushes and looked around. A bird's nest was sitting atop her head.

"You know if you really have a thing for the bunny boy then you shouldn't have run away," Sally said shaking her head as she popped out of the bushes as well. "Unless you want to kick his ass for some reason then I advise against it."

The girl gasped. "Wait, how long have you been here?"

"Uh let's see since you dove into my hiding place when you made eye contact with bunny boy and Takabro." Sally reached up and dusted the leaves from her hair. "By the way there is a bird's nest on your head."

The girl reached up and pulled the nest from her head. She sat it carefully on the branch. "So you saw that?"

"Yeah, girl you need to woman up." Sally said finally getting out of the bushes. "You need to grab life by the balls and ask out Bunny boy if you want to date him. He doesn't bite."

"Me ask Haninozuka-san out? I could never do that!" the girl turned bright red at the thought. "He would never be interested in someone like me."

"You'd be surprised, he's a mystery wrapped in an enigma." Sally held out her hand to the girl. "Come on kid you need to learn a bit about him and know he's not stuck up."

The girl took her hand. "Um…thanks?"

"No problem, so what's your name? What's your story?" Sally asked with a small smile. "You're not from around here are you?"

"I…I go to Saint Lobelia Girls Academy."

"You don't say," Sally, laughed. "You are part of that powder puff breeding farm? Well now it is a small world."

The girl looked down again. "I don't like it there too much."

"Don't blame ya; I got kicked out for taking down a bitch for taking my pizza." Sally snickered. "But that's a story for another day. So what's your name?"

"I'm Ren…Koizumi Ren."

"Nice to meet you..." Sally did a double take and stared at Ren. "Wait a second! I know you…oh man dude it has been forever! Come here!"

Ren squeaked as she was squished into a nearly backbreaking hug. "Um do we know each other?"

"Girl you don't remember? I was the one who kicked that butch chick's ass for trying to get me into her fucking plays." Sally pet Ren on the head gently. "Oh man I missed you so much kid, you were the only good thing at that damn school."

"Benio-san is still talking about you." Ren said softly. "She is still mad about what you did to her."

"Good, I wanted to leave an impression on that school." Sally began laughing. "Hell I bet she wants round two! I will kick her ass up and down the street and then back up again! Hell I'll roll her ass downtown in an old tire and then kick her ass again."

"Moore-san…"

"Just you watch I'll win every round with her ass!" Sally laughed even louder; her hands had found their way to her hips almost as if she was a villain in an old James Bond movie.

"Sally?"

Sally stopped laughing and turned around. "Yo Rene what's up?" she winked at him. "I thought you weren't going to be leaving til seven."

"My dad let me go early," Tamaki looked at Sally and then at Ren. "Are you threating this young princess from Lobelia?"

"No, this is a buddy of mine," Sally put her arm over Ren's shoulders. "She and I hung out for three days before I got tossed out of Saint Lobelia. She is the witness to my awesome power of kicking ass and taking names."

"I see." Tamaki gave a small smile. "It's nice to meet a friend of Sally's."

Ren blushed. "Thank you." She looked at Tamaki. "I'm Ren Koizumi and um…"

"She has a thing for Bunny boy." Sally added poking Ren in the cheek. "Isn't that right Renpi?"

"Ah no no no!" Ren cried blushing more. "She's kidding, I just…umn…I really think that Haninozuka-san's cute but I don't have a crush on him or anything."

"Girl I can see right through your lie," Sally mumbled. "Anyway Renpi, since you're here do you want to go with Rene and I to Mickey D's? We're going for an Extra Value meal and people watch."

"But I don't want to intrude on your date." Ren said.

"No it's cool," Sally looped her arm around Ren's right arm. "We like having someone with us to party, and it's not a date really."

"She's right." Tamaki took Ren's other arm. "We're going to have a good time amongst friends and in the paradise of commoner food."

"Okay?"

"Here ya go the epic bad ass pre-dinner snacks of yore." Sally sat down the tray of food. She had went a little overboard on the order but it was a special occasion and outing so it was either go big or go home. She sat down at the table and smiled at Tamaki and Ren. "All right we may chow down until we cannot chow anymore."

"You didn't need to do this," Ren said quietly. "I could've bought my own."

"Nah, I owe you for the lunch at Lobelia, "Sally smiled and sat down as she looked out the window. "Hell it was your lunch tray that I grabbed to slam into Benio's face when she tried to jump stupid at me."

"You don't need to pay me back," Ren said softly. "It was in the area and you just grabbed it as a way to defend yourself."

"Well its still payback," Sally poked her in the head. "You helped me to avoid an ass beating and I also got to see a bitch get covered in fancy rich people's food."

Ren nodded again. She looked at Sally then at Tamaki, piecing together what she thought was true. "So you and Suou-san are dating?"

"Yep, officially started this afternoon," Sally took a sip of her soda and leaned back in her chair. "Rene and I are lovers."

"I am glad you're doing well at Ouran." Ren stirred her straw in her drink. "I was a little worried about you because your parents were angry."

"I am fine, no scratch on me," Sally laughed. "Anyway Renpi, tell me about life at Lobelia, is it still a nut house?"

"Yes," Ren sighed. "I don't like it there too much."

"You should transfer to Ouran," Tamaki said thoughtfully stealing one of Sally's fries. He winced when she hit his hand. "It's a lot more fun at school."

"I couldn't do it if I wanted to." Ren sighed. "My mother wants me to stay there but I think she's only doing it to spite my father."

"Parents tend to be pains." Sally began blowing bubbles in her soda. "But they can be easily taught to know that we know what is best for ourselves which is why I have a special plan."

"A special plan, what special plan?" Ren's eyes widened and she shook her head. "Moore-san please don't even think about what you're thinking of doing! It didn't work the last time and we got caught and had to serve detention!"

"Oh come on where's your adventurous spirit?" Sally asked with a giggle. "Renpi leave everything to me we'll let you see the magical world of Ouran. What size are you a five? I think I may be able to ask Kitty if we can borrow one of her spare uniforms."

"Sally if you are thinking of going through with that plan I cannot be apart of it," Tamaki looked at her seriously.

"Why do you gotta be a party pooper?" Sally grumbled.

"You didn't let me finish," Tamaki poked her in the forehead. "If we don't have the others in on it. The twins can get a spare uniform to fit Princess Ren and then we can ask my dad to play along."

"Ooh I love the way you think!" Sally laughed. "Ren, come to my house tomorrow morning and we'll begin operation save you from Lobelia."

"I have a bad feeling about this."

End Chapter

Author Notes: Wow it's been forever since I've updated this along with the fact that I had forgot about this story. This chapter continues from the previous one and of course, this allows me to intertwine other romance stories involving the hosts and their ladies into this one since it's the first one in the series.
