I am sorry for the delay! It wouldn't let me post and then I got spontaneously grounded for a few days... and I was dealing with a bit of stressful life stuff... but I was finally able to post! I AM SO SORRY, PLEASE DON'T HATE ME D':

Ladies and (possibly) Gentlemen, I present to youuu~

THE HOST KING~!

Hazel looked up to meet entrancing purple eyes. In what seemed to be out of thin air and a split second, a gorgeous red rose was presented right in front of her face.

She swatted it away playfully, "Tamaki, stop doing that."

"My apologies, Princess~" He said, bowing slightly. Hazel rolled her eyes, *always the dramatic one* she thought to herself. Though she couldn't deny, it was nice being treated like a princess every so often.

Tamaki grinned at her, offering an arm, as if he was her date to some sort of fancy party or dance. The thought made her cheeks turn a very light pink.

Ever since Hazel had met him, she has had a crush on the oblivious blonde. Although he was quite the flirt, he always seemed to be clueless to other people's romantic feelings, especially for him.

She sighed, blinking her eyes a few times, she realized Tamaki was trying to get her attention.

"S-sorry, Tamaki..." She said, embarrassed.

He chuckled, reaching forward to graze his index finger slowly under her chin. "It's alright... princess~"

Hazel's face grew red, though she tried playing it off as anger. "T-tamaki!" She said, smacking his hand away again, she mentally cursed herself for stuttering. Laughs brought her attention back to the blonde. She managed to pull off a 'what-the-heck-are-you-laughing-at' face, pouting slightly.

Tamaki only chuckled again, holding his arm out for her once more. This time she sighed and took it, he smiled happily and began to lead her out.

"So," Tamaki started to say, breaking the once peaceful silence, "How is my bestest friend~?"

That's right, he had friend zoned Hazel. After barely a year, of her getting mad at him for calling her his daughter (mainly due to the fact that she had a crush on him and it made it awkward), he had began to call Hazel his 'best friend'. It stung a little bit but she has come to terms with it, for now at least.

Hazel shrugged, her long brown hair shifting from the movement. "Alright, I suppose." She stated finally.

"No boys have been bothering my precious daughte-," After a stern warning look from Hazel, Tamaki gulped nervously then continued, "I mean Best Friend, have they?"

Much like Haruhi, Tamaki was overly protective with Hazel. The brunette sighed, shaking her head, "No, Tamaki..."

The blonde let out a sigh of relief, then after a few moments of thinking he turned his gaze back to Hazel, smiling.

"Hazel, I was wondering something..."

"Well this should be interesting." Was her sarcastic response.

"Do you like anyone?" Hazel's brown eyes widened slightly before she quickly changed her expression back to neutral, she was not expecting anyone, especially Tamaki, to ever ask her that.

"Nope." She said after a moments hesitation, of course this was one of the few times Tamaki caught it.

"Who do you like?" He pushed.

"No one." She replied bluntly, turning her face away stubbornly and crossing her arms.

"OH, who do you like~?"

"No one!"

"Who do you like?"

"How many times are you gonna ask me that?" She asked, sighing. While he pestered her, she realized they had stopped walking and were now in front of one of the hallway windows, it had a view of the cherry blossom garden.

"As many times as it takes for you to say my name~"

'Hold up...Did he just..?' Hazel turned her gaze from the blossoms to look at Tamaki, her brown eyes widened, stunned.

Before she could figure out a coherent sentence within her brain, a pair of lips gently met her cheek. She refocused on the situation and watched as Tamaki pulled back, succeeding in the peck to get her attention. He started walking away, his hands in his pockets, whistling lightly, feigning innocence as if he hadn't done anything.

After a moment of piecing together what had happened and what Tamaki was trying to say Hazel frowned and walked after him, she tapped his shoulder and he turned slightly to meet her eyes. His own purple orbs seemingly amused but held a hidden hint of doubt and worry.

Hazel tapped her lips, "You missed."

She stood up on her tippy toes and wrapped her arms around his neck, bringing the shocked blonde down into a kiss.
