"I haven't heard from her since…" Rin sighed and set down her now empty tub ice cream on the table. "I've tried calling her but she won't pick up."

"That's brutal…" Kaoru shook his head.

"I don't like Yone…" honey shook his head and clutched usa-chan close to his chest as if Yone would pop out at any moment and scare him "She's a monster."

"I agree." Tamaki stood up and pointed to the sky. "We shall confront this Yone and demand that Rin be put back into the wedding!"

"No." Rin said sharply.

"No?" Tamaki pouted looking at Rin with confused eyes.

"Yes." She answerd

"Yes?"

"NO!" Rin stood up. "You are not asking Yone to put me back in the wedding. Period."

"But why not?" Hikaru started

"Yeah it's what you want isn't it?" Kaoru raised an eyebrow "To be back in the wedding?"

"No! Well… yes but-" Rin puzzled for a moment trying to find the right words.

"Then what's the problem?"

"The problem is." Rin took in a deep breath to calm herself down as she began to feel her temper grow. "That I'm not welcome. Even if you forced Yone to let me back in I still would be an embarrassment."

"What are you talking about?" Haruhi stood up. "You are not an embarrassment,"

"Haruhi face it, look at Me." she gestured to herself. "I'm in a guy's uniform for god's sake, I can pass for a boy and I flirt with girls all day long I am no where near Aurelia material nor will I ever be." Rin pointed at her hat "Look at my hair for gods sake Haruhi I'm half freaking bald and have you seen and Aurelian dress? They're made for girls who are at least 6 foot and that have…" Rin paused to try find a nicer word for what she was about to say. "…Womanly parts" she said awkwardly creating an hourglass figure with their hands.

"Well that's not a problem." The twins shrugged nonchalantly. "We have lots of dresses-"

"Oh my god! It's not about the dress!" Rin shouted getting beyond frustrated with the twins causing them to shrink back a bit. Rin sighed as she saw them cower away and looked at her feet a tad embarrassed "I'm sorry I shouldn't have lost my temper." She apologized before looking them in the eye. "The point is someone like me isn't welcome to a wedding like that." Rin grabbed her forearms "If the bride doesn't want me there then I'm not going."

Tamaki frowned at her with his brows knitted together, a bit upset that Rin was giving up so easily "But if we-"

"Tamaki please." Rin held up her hand her voice breaking just a bit. "I know you wanna make it all better and I know you wanna fix everything but you can't." Rin smiled weakly "I appreciate what you're trying to do, I honestly do, but forcing them to let me back in the wedding won't make me happy."

"You want your sister to want you in the wedding." Mori stated pretty much summing up everything she was trying to say.

"Yeah…" Rin sniffed. "I mean we've been there for each other since mom left us and we had each others backs no matter what…what did I do wrong?"

"Nothing at all, you've don't nothing wrong Rin." Tamaki Pulled Rin into his chest cradling her head and keeping his hands appropriately in the region of her shoulder blades. Rin had a bit of a confused twinge in her eye; she couldn't remember the last time Tamaki had actually called her by her actual name and not 'Princess.' "Don't you ever put yourself down just because you don't meet the standards of someone else?" Tamaki soothed her, Rin stopped sniveling for a moment and wore a face that looked absolutely shocked not because Tamaki was hugging her without being a total creepazoid but at how deep Tamaki was being, all this time she thought he was a total airhead but he was actually pretty deep. "You are a beautiful young lady Rin inside and out, and don't you ever forget that, you may not be welcome in the world of Aurelia but your welcome with us."

"Yeah Ri-Chan!" Honey hugged Rin's leg "you are always welcome to eat cake with me and usa-chan!" Honey tightened his grip on her leg…almost cutting off circulation but still a sweet gesture. "And if I have a wedding you can be my flower girl."

"And if we have a wedding you can be our bride." The twins snaked their arms around her shoulders.

"I don't think that's legal in Japan." Kyouya adjusted his glasses "you can't both marry Rin let alone at that age."

"He's Right." Mori agreed/

"Well then I guess she'll have to pick one." They both turned to her both dangerously close to her face. "So? Whose it gonna be Rin?"

"Good Gandhi guys I'm 15." She scoffed as if she were some strict adult dismissing a Childs silly fantasy. She tried to push them away but that only made their hold tighter

"Come on were the ones closest to your age." Kaoru reminded.

"Yeah and it's probably going to be someone in the host club anyway right?" Hikaru added

"So you might as well pick one of us now since it's obviously us." Kaoru went on.

"Yeah just pick!" the pressed her and she eventually just slipped out from underneath the, leaving them to hug each other.

"I'm going to have to get a spray bottle for you two if you keep this up…" Rin readjusted her jacket and brushed off her pants.

"Hey I just realized something!" Haruhi smiled "you didn't talk like that when you were sad."

"Pardon?" Rin raised a single brow.

"Good Gandhi and that remark about the spray bottle, you didn't say things like that like you used to but now you are again." Haruhi pointed

"Oh I didn't realize I talked a certain way…" Rin shrugged "Although I thought that my accent was fading away as I spoke more Japanese."

"No it's still pretty thick." Hikaru pointed.

"But don't worry its pretty cute." Kaoru assured her flirtatiously.

"But that's not what I meant." Haruhi interjected on the subject once more. "Your accent has always been like that but you said things like 'good Gandhi' and the joking remarks like the spray bottle."

"I was not joking I fully intend on investing in a spray bottle." Rin noted

"Anyway…"Haruhi continued ignoring her interruption. "You used to say things like that but you didn't when you were upset."

"And you made no response to us putting the moves on you." The twins reminded almost sounding offended.

"And Takashi said your poems were really sad." Honey pointed out. "And you don't read them with energy like you used to."

"Yeah." Mori agreed

"Not to mention a lot of your clients come up to me and ask if you are ill." Kyouya noted to engrossed in his notes to look up but not to engrossed that he could resist the urge to say something.

"We thought that maybe you were upset because you were losing your femininity." Tamaki pointed "We thought if we made you feel more like a girl you would be happier."

"You guys…" a small smile graced gently upon your lips "You were really that worried about me?"

"Of course we were." Haruhi spoke up. "You're our friend Rin; it was pretty difficult to see you so upset."

"Not to mention a bit temperamental." Kyouya muttered but not quiet enough that Rin didn't pick up on it. Her face fell a bit as she remembered how bitter she was towards everyone else.

"Guys…I'm so sorry." she hung her head in shame. "I was upset and I lashed out at you because of it for no good reason and I'm sorry, it was unfair of me and I'm sorry." she began to get choked up, Rin rose her head again her eyes red and tears brimming her eyes "But thank you for going to so much trouble to try and cheer me up and I'm sorry I didn't appreciate that sooner."

"APOLOGY ACCEPTED MY DEAR!" Tamaki embraced her forcefully earning a grunt from Rin as her tiny form was encased in his large arms. She decided to let it slide this time and not push him away.

"Its okay Ri-Chan!" honey jumped up intercepting her current hug and hugged her face. "And next time just tell us what's going on, so we can help!"

"You guys are so great…" Rin let a few happy tears slide from her eyes and down her now rosy cheeks. "You went through all that trouble just for me…"

"Don't cry!" Honey shouted horrified, "Don't be sad anymore! "He began to wipe away her tears with his sleeve.

"I'm not sad Honey." Rin sniffed and smiled as a brand new set of happy tears flowed down her cheeks "It reminds me how lucky I am to have friends as great as you guys."

"AWW!" the entire host club encircled Rin, in a hug including Haruhi but excluding Kyouya who just stood near taking notes.
