Author's Note: Sorry for the long wait, I can't promise chapters will come quicker, but I haven't given up on this story I'm glad for those who have been patient with me.
"Now you've done it!" Tamaki exclaimed.
"It's done alright." Hikaru replied, them looking at the tipped tea cup.
"But it wasn't our fault." Kaoru defended themselves as it was shown Usa-Chan had tea spilled all over him.
"What!? You idiots. you're the ones who bumped into it, right!?" Tamaki huffed.
"Only because Haruhi was running away!"
"We were trying to catch her 'cause we wanted to have some fun and dress her up in cosplay." They said while hugging Haruhi who was trying to escape.
"So what!? We cosplay all the time!" Tamaki shouted.
Hikaru and Kaoru smiled to each other. "We weren't going with the usual host club costumes, though."
"We want to see Haruhi in bunny cosplay, disguised as a girl." They told him as Haruhi had a blank expression on her face.
"Disguised as a girl?" She questioned because she was a girl. "Why not do this with Daniel, let me go!" She whined.
"Do not bring me into this, Haruhi. I already wear a dress every day." Daniel replied sitting at a table with Mori. "They already tried to get me to wear one anyway."
"How did you get them to stop?" Haruhi asked him.
Hikaru was already sulking from the memory.
"He threatened to switch classes." Kaoru replied and nudged Hikaru to snap him out of it.
"That's all? He does that all the time." Haruhi huffed.
"I have paperwork to make it look official I could switch classes, all of them with the twins in them." Daniel replied.
"...What!? It's unofficial paperwork!?" Hikaru exclaimed.
"Yeah, Hikari helped me make it." Daniel hummed leaning back in his seat.
"Yes, just by a glance it looks official, I have to give him credit, it's impressive work." Kyoya added looking at the papers.
"Anyway, back to the bunny cosplay, you'd like to see it too, wouldn't you Boss?" Kaoru smirked devilishly at Tamaki.
Tamaki's face turned red and looked away. "I definitely want to see that." He muttered before grabbing his hair. "What am I thinking, there's no time for stuff like that right no!" He pointed at the twins accusingly. "I know what you're up to! You're trying to distract me from the mess you made! Get away from Haruhi, you punks!" Tamaki exclaimed.
"Excuse me, we don't have any guests at the moment, so I don't mind if you make a racket, but please," Kyoya looked over at Tamaki shaking the twins shouting at them. "Be careful. You don't want to wake Honey-Senpai." He warned them causing Tamaki to stop shaking them abruptly.
Looking over they saw Honey sleeping on a couch with a huge bed canopy over it. "He's a third year and he still takes afternoon naps? Well we're going to have to tell him about the bunny at some point. Let's just wake him up and apologize." Haruhi said walking towards Honey.
"No wait! Don't get any closer to Honey-Senpai!" Tamaki and the twins whisper shouted from behind a sofa, away from where Honey slept.
"It's safe over here!" Tamaki waved his hand.
Haruhi rolled her eyes and went back crouching with them. "What're you talking about?"
"Honey-Senpai wakes up in a very bad mood after napping!" Tamaki told her making her raise a brow. "Now this may just be a rumor, but the Haninozuka family once visited a U.S. military base to give combat training. Supposedly, Honey-Senpai slept through most of it because of his jet leg. Then a soldier came in and carelessly tried to wake him up. Since he had been sleeping for so long..." Tamaki was shaking at the thought of it, a huge bunny explosion happening due to being woken up.
"On that day, he wiped out two entire platoons of soldiers, and not just any soldiers, green berets!" He continued as the twins were quivering behind Tamaki. "And I've heard, we've had diplomatic issues with America ever since that day!" He exclaimed.
"How terrifying!" The twins exclaimed as Haruhi looked blank faced she looked over at Daniel who had came over to listen who looked deep in thought.
"You don't believe in this do you?" She asked him. Daniel opened his mouth to answer before Tamaki interrupted, not finished talking making them both sigh.
"And we've got a bigger problem. Usa-Chan was handmade for Honey-Senpai by his deceased grandmother. You've seen how he carries it around, that little bunny is his most prized possession! I can't imagine how he's going to react when he wakes up, and sees that his precious Usa-Chan is ruined!" Tamaki exclaimed as he and the twins imagined a huge bunny explosion coming from the school.
The three freaked out, screaming. "He's gonna do to us what he did to those green berets!"
"You're exaggerating. It's impossible for that story to be true. I mean, c'mon." Haruhi replied.
"I have to agree, I've seen some stuff happen and I can't see that story to be true." Daniel replied.
Tamaki huffed as they didn't believed him, but he wasn't giving up so easily. "It is! And there's other evidence that Honey-Senpai has an evil side to him. Listen to this, his blood type is AB, how do you like that?"
"So what?" Daniel and Haruhi asked.
"That means he's the same blood type as Kyoya!" He told them and Haruhi freaked as Daniel was blank faced. The four of them looked at Kyoya.
"What's the matter, you guys have a problem with my blood type?" Kyoya asked as he was still typing on his computer.
"Yeah, really though, blood type has nothing to do with that, Hikari's blood type is AB... Okay you may have a point." Daniel replied.
Haruhi turned to face the readers. "Oh, those of you reading with type AB, please don't take any offense to this."
Honey made a small noise rolling over in his sleep and sighed softly, gaining their attention and making them freak.
"This is bad! We have to do something quick before he wakes up. Hikaru, Kaoru!" Tamaki called, snapping his fingers. The twins standing and saluting to him.
"Sir!" They whisper yelled.
"Go get your folk's Cessna. Fly to Osorezan and bring back a medium. We'll channel his grandmother, and she can guide us through it! We can make a new Usa-Chan for Honey-Senpai!" Tamaki ordered and took out a map. "Take this map of the Aomori Prefecture with you, and don't forget to bring back apple juice, apple jam, and Nebuta souvenir dolls!"
"But we don't have that much time." Hikaru replied with a huff.
"We're used to your crazy ideas, but you should come up with something more practical." Kaoru added.
"It just sounds like you want those souvenirs instead." Daniel said blankly.
Tamaki growled a bit before turning to face them again. "Alright how about this. We'll send Usa-Chan to the cleaners." Tamaki replied before looking at Haruhi. "Haruhi! You're going to have to wear the bunny suit!" He said holding the bunny costume blushing.
"Yeah good idea boss!" The twins said giving a thumbs up.
"Do we even have enough time to go to the cleaners? Why not hand wash it here?" Daniel asked but watched Tamaki grab the back of Haruhi's blazer while she tried getting away.
"I'm not wearing that stupid bunny suit! It's not gonna work! He'll know it's me!" She exclaimed.
"No he won't! He won't be able to tell the difference if he's just waking up from a nap!" Tamaki argued.
Daniel sighed as he was ignored due to perverted fantasies. He looked over back at the toy bunny and when he reached to pick it up Honey sits up making him freeze.
"He's awake! We'll have to use a substitute! We've got no choice!" Tamaki exclaimed as the twins grabbed Daniel dragging him to safety as Honey rubbed his eyes.
Honey looked over and sees a brown stuffed bear silently.
"Really, a bear? That looks nothing like Usa-Chan." Daniel hissed.
"There was no time to get another toy!" Tamaki said as he and the twins were shaking and panicking.
They watched Honey as he grabs the teddy bear before slamming it to the ground making Tamaki shriek, "Not my teddy bear!"
"He just spotted his bunny rabbit!" Kaoru freaked as Honey walked over to the table and picks up the tea soaked rabbit.
He looked over at them darkly. "Who's responsible for this. Who got Usa-Chan dirty." He ordered as the trio turned white.
"Someone help, Mori-Senpai don't let him hurt us!" They exclaimed.
"He wanted tea. So Usa-Chan decided to have a drink." Mori told him as he stood near them.
Honey perked up and smiled. "I see! So that's why his face is all dirty, isn't it!" He said happily holding his rabbit up to Mori. "Hey, do you think he wants some cake too?" He asked as Tamaki and the twins were crying and baffled on how little it took to take care of the mess.
Daniel shook his head with a sigh and sat down.
"Honey, how do you like to have chocolate? Mousse? Bonbons? Wait, I bet chocolate cake is your favorite, huh?" one of Honey's guests asked as they sat together at a circular table.
Honey hummed. "Umm let's see, well, I like them all! I love anything chocolate, Usa-Chan, and all of you ladies!" He answered making all his guests squeal.
"Oh he's so cute!" They said as Renge observed them with a microphone in her hand.
"Mitsukuni Haninozuka, otherwise known as Honey-Senpai, age 17. Ouran Academy Third year, Class A and a member of the Host Club. Favorite things include cake, chocolate, and bunnies. He's famous for his enchanting boy-lolita characteristics." Renge started narrating the scene.
"Honey-Senpai's catchphrases include 'I love candy!' and 'I love cute things!' and while some find these charming, I'm not quite sold on his cutesie loli boy image. It's not exciting enough. It feels like something's missing in his character arch!" Renge exclaimed.
Haruhi walked over to their table with a tray of tea. "Uh Honey-Senpai, you can't keep eating nothing but sweets all of the time. Y'know, you're going to end up with a cavity." She said as she set a cup of tea on the table.
"Oh don't worry, I always brush my teeth!" Honey smiled brightly.
"Even so, that's a lot of sweets." Daniel added watching. Honey just gave him a reassuring smile before taking a bite of cake and jolted, tearing up a bit.
The hosts looked over at him. "Are you okay?" Daniel asked him.
"Honey-Senpai... Is it..." Haruhi said before Honey piped up.
"It's nothing, kay." Honey held his cheek before the twins held him to the chair making him squirm and whine.
"We should still check." Daniel said standing up to try and look with Haruhi.
"Honey-Senpai, please quit squirming." One of the twins said.
Honey teared up at this. "There's nothing wrong, quit messing with me! Leave me alone!"
Mori stood up from his chair and pushed Honey down on the sofa, looking into his mouth.
The girls squealed loudly at the sight. "Yes, that's it, that's it! That's what was missing! It's moe~!" Renge exclaimed and looking at them eagerly.
"So is it a cavity?" Tamaki asked Mori looking on worriedly.
Mori looked up. "Yeah." He said looking at him. "Tamaki." He told him the blonde nodded.
"Yes, you're right, I'll take care of this." Tamaki cleared his throat looking on to the rest of the club. "Until Honey-Senpai gets over his cavity, I'm afraid he can't have sweets."
"What!?" Honey freaked out in tears.
"Therefore, we'll be supportive and ask that you kindly refrain from eating snacks in the clubroom until this ordeal is over." Tamaki continued.
"N-no! No don't Takashi, please don't take my snacks away." Honey cried. "You can't, don't do it.. What'll I do without them?" He exclaimed as Mori picked up his unfinished cake and started walking away.
"I can handle it! Please don't take away my cake!" Honey chased after him before Mori turned his head to look at him.
"No more cake." He told him making Honey scream with tears in his eyes.
"And that's how it all began. One little cavity and suddenly Honey-Senpai's life became a living hell." Renge announced.
Honey was walking down the Hall after getting his tooth checked out. His cheek was a little swollen as a ribbon was tied around his head as he held his cheek.
"Poor Honey-Senpai looks so miserable. It's a shame the host club banned snacks." A girl said as she and her friend were watching him walk.
"It must be really difficult for him. I hope this doesn't seem insensitive, I know he's in pain but..." They looked as the knot on the top of Honey's head from the ribbon looked like bunny ears.
"Awe he's so cute!" They exclaimed.
Honey sighs as he walks before stopping as Mori was behind him. "Mitsukuni, bag." he told him.
"I can carry it." Honey said softly.
"Yes you can, hand it over." He said before taking the bag and emptying it out as a pile of candy come falling from the bag.
"I was just looking. I wasn't gonna eat them..." Honey said in a pouty voice.
"Really? If you're just looking, then try this." Mori said holding out a flyer for half-off candy to him. "I will keep the real stuff." He said walking away as Honey held the flyer. The blonde teared up and screams before falling to the ground.
"Aw man, that was rough." The twins said as they, Daniel and Haruhi were around the corner watching.
"I can't help but feel sorry for him." Haruhi replied as the four headed off down the hall.
"You know I had no idea that Mori-Senpai could be so brutal." Hikaru told them.
"You wouldn't expect it. I thought his principles kept him from doing anything to upset Honey-Senpai." Kaoru added.
"And to think that he could get the boss to go along with him." Hikaru concluded with a sigh.
"Sometimes you have to be hard on someone you love to take care of them. They might not like it but sometimes it's what's best for them. If you let someone do whatever they want you might become responsible of what happens to them." Daniel replied as Haruhi stops walking thinking.
~The Host Club Is Now Open~
"It's too bad Tamaki. I wanted to give you some of the chocolates specially made by our new pâtissier. My family just hired him from France, but I can't share them with out because you're not eating sweets." One of Tamaki's guest replied sadly as she was seated next to Tamaki.
"Do not fret my princess, for the present I must abstain for poor Honey-Senpai's sake. But eventually we'll be able to share chocolate together again." He told her smiling softly at her.
"Oh the friendship you guys have is absolutely beautiful." She replied before Tamaki grabbed her hand causing her to blush.
"I believe things will work out for the better this way my dear. I'm sure it's delicious but, no chocolate could ever be able to withstand the heat wave of my love. So it would all melt and go to waste." He told her as she looked at him.
"Oh Tamaki..." She said swooning as the twins came up behind the sofa to him.
"Impressive boss, that was quite an act." Hikaru told him.
"Missing sweets, aren't you." Kaoru jabbed at him making him tsk.
"Eh, buzz off. The club's number one priority is our guests. All that matters is their happiness." Tamaki retorted.
"You had better watch yourselves out there. Don't give any sweets to Honey-Senpai no matter what tricks he resorts to. Oh, and incidentally those instructions come from Mori-Senpai, this isn't my doing." Kyoya told them writing in his notebook smiling before walking away.
"So is it just me, or does he seem to be enjoying this." Hikaru commented watching the male leave.
"It's unnerving seeing him so happy. He really is a shadow king." Daniel added carrying a tray of tea next to them causing Hikaru to jump a bit. "What?" He asked seeing Hikaru hold on to his brother.
"It's nothing, hey, where's Haruhi?" Kaoru asked looking around for the girl as Hikaru stood up.
Meanwhile Haruhi was walking down the hallway before she spotted Mori and a girl near the courtyard. She quickly hid behind a pillar to not get caught as she eavesdropped on the interaction.
The girl was looking down to the floor in front of Mori. "I just can't hide it any longer. I have to get this off my chest. I need to know what your feelings are towards me, and if you'll accept my love. Will you please..? Unless of course there's someone else. Please tell me, is there someone else who's dear to you? There is isn't there, huh..." She told him as mori didn't say a word to her.
Tears fell from her eyes and cried softly. "I should've known." She said before running off.
~Honey's First Strategy: Use the Cute~
"Look, Takashi! My cavity's all better now!" Honey exclaimed slow running to him using all of his cute powers to try and get what he wants.
Mori was reading a book not even sparring Honey a glance. "You sure?" He asked him.
"The swelling has even gone down!" He said happily.
"Has it." Mori stated.
"So, do you think I could have a piece of cake? Just one, please?" Honey asked before Mori shoves a popsicle into Honey's mouth causing the male to freak and pull away from the pain, holding his cheek, tears pricking his eyes.
"You're not fully recovered yet." Mori told him walking away while holding the popsicle.
~Honey's Second Strategy: The Indirect Method~
Honey has his arms behind his back as he approached two guests who were drinking tea with sandwiches. "What're you ladies drinking?" He asked moving a bit to make himself look cuter to them.
The girls suddenly looked very nervous. "Um, Darjeeling tea, it's really good!" One of them told him.
"Yeah? What're you going to have to eat?" He asked tilting his head a bit.
"Well I was going to have a sandwich." The other girl replied looking at him nervously.
"Ahh, you know what you need? Some sweets! That tea would go well with something, sweet! Lime maybe some cake! C'mon, whaddaya say?" He asked excitedly looking at the two of them with a bright smile.
"Well it would be good with cake..."
"It sure would..." They agreed slightly as Honey perked up more before the two girls stood up and ran out of the room.
"We're so sorry, Honey!"
"But it's for your own good!" They called to him as they ran.
"B-but wait!" Honey reached out to them, teary eyed and pouting.
~Honey's Third Strategy: Pulling at Heartstrings~
Honey was sulking as he walked up to Daniel, holding onto his dress.
"Honey-Senpai? You okay?" He asked worriedly looking at him.
"Elle-Chan... Am I a bad person?" He asked looking up at him with tears in his eyes. "I just don't understand why God hates me. What have I done?" He asked him as Daniel felt his heart clench.
He looked around a bit before taking out a small bag. "Okay, just don't go telling anybody, okay?" He said reaching into the bag.
Honey brightened up. "Is it a snack!?" He asked excitedly.
"Yeah." Daniel said and put a piece of charcoal in his hands. "I was trying to make some chocolate myself, it's just a little burnt." He told him as Honey paled realizing he chose the wrong person to manipulate.
~Third Day of Candy Prohibition~
Honey was pacing irritably in front of the kitchen, having a hand up to his mouth as the hosts watched anxiously.
"He's gonna crack." Tamaki said as they kept watching him pace.
"Would somebody please talk to him? He's scaring me..." Kaoru replied.
"I don't want a death wish, thank you very much." Daniel replied before Honey opened the doors to the kitchen.
"He's heading for the candy!" Hikaru freaked out.
"No need to worry, we emptied out all the sweets." Kyoya replied with a smile.
"Kyoya-Senpai, you seem really chipper today." Haruhi told him.
"He feeds off the misery of others, what do you expect?" Daniel told her.
"Don't talk as if I can't hear you." Kyoya told him looking over at him making Daniel shiver.
Tamaki suddenly freaks out. "He keeps doing that to my teddy bear!" He exclaimed as they looked as Honey slammed the bear onto the floor before stumbling out of the kitchen and falls to the floor in defeat.
"Well, there he goes." Kaoru commented.
"Three days and he gives up." Hikari continued.
"I'm surprised he lasted this long." Daniel replied as Tamaki walked up to Honey and gently shaking his shoulder.
"Um, Honey-Senpai?" Tamaki asked before Honey quickly turned his head and biting Tamaki's hand causing him to shriek and run around waving Honey as the smaller male latched onto his hand with his mouth. "Somebody help me! He's eating my arm off!" Tamaki exclaimed in tears.
Mori stood up and walks over to them. "Mitsukuni, don't take this out on other people." He told him looking down at him as Honey paused and let go of Tamaki and glares at him.
Tamaki let out a sigh of relief while rubbing his hands with tears streaming down his face. "You saved me, I thought I was a goner." He told Mori.
"It's disgraceful." Mori told Honey as the male growled a bit.
"Takashi..." He growled before taking Mori's arm and throwing him over his shoulder. "You idiot!" He shouted at him as the hosts freak. "A little bit isn't gonna hurt me! You're so mean! You're such a hardhead! That's it, I hate you!" He shouted tearing up. "I hate you Takashi!" He screamed before running out of the room.
"Honey-Senpai!" Tamaki called after him and chases after the male as Mori sits up silently.
Hikaru was the first to speak up. "Hey Mori-Senpai," He said softly.
"That was harsh, will you be alright?" Kaoru finished as Mori stands up, leaning against a table before it tips and he falls back down.
"Wow Senpai, it looks like he really got to you. I don't know what's going on, but it seems like you're self destructing."
"Maybe Honey-Senpai wouldn't hate you if you hadn't have been so hard on him in the first place." The twins told him.
Haruhi's eyes widened. "It was on purpose." She said making them look at hurt. "Mori-Senpai, by any chance, have you been acting like this because you're trying to get Honey-Senpai to hate you?" She asked looking at him.
"Why would he do that?"
"It makes no sense, that would be like the end of the world for Mori-Senpai."
"Why would he do it on purpose?" The twins asked.
"Because he feels this was his fault." Daniel said softly. "Is that right?" He asked looking at Mori.
"Yeah, you both are... This was my fault. Mitsukuni has a cavity... Because I'm careless. Twice before his nap time I forgot to make him brush his teeth." He told them.
The twins sweat dropped as Daniel stared blankly. "But that's not really your responsibility." Hikaru told him.
"Yeah, he should know better." Kaoru replied.
"He has to be made to brush his teeth..." Daniel muttered.
"But if Mitsukuni has to get false teeth, it'll be my fault..." He replied.
"Uh... Don't worry, that's not gonna happen." The twins told him blankly.
"Wow, what a pessimist." Haruhi stated.
"I wouldn't be able to live with myself right now, if he hadn't thrown me down." Mori said softly.
"Because he felt at fault, Mori-Senpai wanted some sort of punishment from Honey-Senpai to make up for his failure." Kyoya summarized the situation.
"All of this for a little cavity?" Daniel asked as Tamaki and Honey were outside the door listening.
"Well, there you have it. Honey-Senpai, what will you do now?" Tamaki asked Honey looking at him.
Honey looked back before at the door tearing up and cried as he pushed the doors open to run to Mori. "I'm sorry! I'm so sorry Takashi! I promise, I won't forget to brush my teeth again! I won't forget!" He sobbed as Mori hugged him tightly.
Several Days Later~
"A few days later, Honey-Senpai recovered from his painful cavity. So the host club decided to lift their ban on sweets, and Honey-Senpai can greedily stuff his face once more." Renge narrated watching Honey eat cake.
Kyoya sighed as he was pressing buttons on a calculator looking at a bunch of bills.
"What's with Kyoya-Senpai? He looks depressed about something." Haruhi asked watching him as the twins went on either side of her.
"'Cause Honey-Senpai's back to eating snacks again." Hikaru chuckled.
"All those sweets get expensive." Kaoru told her.
"Excuse me," A girl interrupted.
"Oh my, looks like we have a new guest, gentlemen." Tamaki told them as the girl steps into the room, the same girl Haruhi saw confess her love to Mori. "Are you a fan or Mori-Senpai?" Tamaki asked her as the girl walks up to Mori.
"Well Mori, I understand now. I know who you feel so strongly about, and it's okay." She said and looks over at Honey who was indulging on cake. "I must say I find it a little surprising that it's Honey. To think he's so special to you. I don't know... It's just so... I can't explain it. I-it's just so... Yay!" She said looking up with hearts in her eyes.
"What the?" "Huh?" Daniel and Haruhi said as Renge walked up to the girl.
"Congratulations! You've just taken your first big step into a brand new world!" Renge told the girl as Mori took a napkin and wiped Honey's face.
"Mitsukuni, you've made a mess." He told the blonde as Honey giggled, making the girls squeal.
"That's right ladies, it's moe! It's the greatest, I just can't get enough of it!" Renge laughed.
"You know, even though this whole thing may look and feel just like a happy ending, I'm not sure everyone out there would think moe is the best way to wrap things up." Haruhi replied.
"Moe!" The girls just squealed making Haruhi roll her eyes.
"Oh good grief." She said.
"At least we can have chocolate again." Daniel told her, standing next to her eating a slice of chocolate cake.
