Welcome To ......

[Kilatani]

Ryouta opened the doors forcifully, the light from outside surrounded his body as he walked in. His black hair flowed with the wind as he walked in the doors, he walked up a few flight of stairs and found himself in a endless hallway. He glanced down at a piece of paper that he held in his hand.

"Music Room #3....?" he looked around the hall when his eyes met with a sign that read the same as his paper. This must be the room. Without knocking he opened the doors.

[Ravenna]

Rose petals and an almost tasty scent seemed to fill the air that tasted tantalizing and tempting to one who entered which would almost instantly give the person entering a suspision or maybe even a dose of curiosity.

In the center, just in the gaze of the door stood the host club of Ouran, well known and a club for girls who had too much time on their hands. Of course no one knew about the secret they had. Two females in the host club, Haruhi Fujioka and Hime Koishii, but now with the surname Fujioka since hers and Haruhi's family's intermarried.

Tamaki Suoh, the president of the host club sat in the middle of the group. He was also known as the prince type of the host club. He smiled, his clear blue gaze seeming to sparkle in the lighting of the room so it would catch anyone who entereds attetion. "Welcome," he said, his voice distinct and the most prominent of the group when they all spoke in unison. He smiled, standing to his feet, pausing when he noticed that their guest was not a female but a male.

Hikaru smiled gently,standing straight. He obvioulsy stood by Zane, his new lover, but well, it was actually quite a secret. No one, knew, but obviously Hime seemed to know, but she was quite nice about it despite how he and his twin seemed to have picked on her before. He still had the image to keep up, but it was with Kaoru. He wondered though, how much did it really bother Zane?

Hikaru shifted his weight now, closing his eyelids now veiling his brilliant golden eyes. Hikaru blinked seeing it was a male. Maybe he wasn't the straightest line in the square? Well, it could be that, or another guy who needed help form the host club to confess their feelings to some girl in the school. He wondered though, what was this guy looking for?

Hime let her red gaze wander throughout the room. She still seemed to think the idea of the host club was almost foolish, though they did seem to help others, so at least it was some good. She just dind't understand, yeah she looked like a "dude" but why did girls have to flaunt over her so much?

Another thing that seemed to annoy her beyond belief was Tamaki. He always seemed to call her daughter, and not just her, but Haruhi as well, she wondered, would this be a new guest? It seemed everyday someone new seemed to pop up.

She did have to laugh. It amused her how dumb everyone seemed to be. How they couldn't realize the relationship Hikaru and Zane shared she didn't know, but maye it was she was too into details? That had to be it, or at least that's what she thought. Sometimes she seemed to puzzle herself with how hard she seemed to think. She frowned slightly, her lips curling down, then flashing back up as she saw the doors open.

Amusing, another guy. Why not just make this a host club for males, or maybe some type of counceling thing for men? The thought seemed to amuse her a lot. She grinned broader from it, now watching Tamaki go forward.

Tamaki now strolled up to the male, looking at him, wondering what in the world he seemed to be doing, but guessed the male might be having problems confessing, or maybe something as simple as relationship trouble, but he, like Hikaru had the thought questioning the males sexuality. "Welcome to the Host Club," he grinned. "Are you here to request a favor or a host?" he queried, grinning expectantly.

[twilightfangirl]

Haruhi looked at the new boy that entered the room. "Huh I thought it would be a girl." Haruhi thought looking at the black-haired boy enter the room. "But I guess its not just girls, but boys too." Haruhi thought thinking of the boys that had come here in the past. "Maybe he wants to join the host club...hmmm...no that couldn't be it. He probably came in here by mistake just like I did. Who would want to join the Host Club anyways? I certainly didn't, but I had to. Once my debt is paid off I'm getting out of this club. Hime will probably get out of it too once I do becasue shes only here to help me." Haruhi thought as she looked at Hime who was grinning widely. "I wonder what shes so happy about." Haruhi thought as she looked in the direction of where Hime was looking. "Oh I get it. She wants to see what Sempai will do to that poor boy." Haruhi thought as she watched Tamaki walk up to the black-haired boy.

[Kilatani]

"Welcome to the Host Club," he grinned. "Are you here to request a favor or a host?" he queried, grinning expectantly.


Ryouta closed his flaming orange eyes calmly and responded slowly,"I was told to come to this class...." he took a piece of paper and handed it to Tamaki, "I have no request, I only ask what I'm to learn here." He let his eyes meet Tamaki's offensively. He let his eyes wander to the other students of the room.

He made sure to make absolute eye contact with each of the them. He pulled some of the hair that fell in his face, back slowly and smoothly, closing his eyes, almost painfully. 'This place look anything but a classroom, could I have come to the wrong place?' he thought.

[Amu Hinamori]

A young girl with short black hair, white highlights sighed. She wore a white ribbon in her hair, and was a little bit tall for her age. As she exited her step-father's limo, she looked back at her 'father' and waved.

"See you after school, Otou-san(sp?)..."

Her father merely waved his hand lazily at her. He didn't even bother to look at her. She closed the door, and the limo sped off.

"..... Yeah... see you..."

The young girl walked onto the grounds, gazing at the school.

"Hmph... So this is Ouran...?"

She approached the fountain near the entrance of the school and sat on its edge, starring into it. She looked at her reflection, and ran her fingers through her hair.

"I can't believe I have to come to this place... a snooty school for snooty rich kids..."

She pulled out her school ID and gazed at it. It read,

"Hikaru Mara
1st Year Freshman"

There was more, but she stopped reading it.

"Hmph... Even the ID's are snooty..."

Mara sighed as she entered the school. She followed a long hallway that lead to another, that lead to another... She approaced Library #2 and looked inside. It was full of students, all jibber jabbering about who knows what. Mara noticed that all of the girls were wearing yellow school dress uniforms. She immediately closed the door.

"Oh... My.... God.... THOSE UNIFORMS ARE SO TACKY!!"

Mara looked at her white shorts and shirt, and her black sandals. She was completely out of uniform, but she didn't care. She hated those uniforms the moment she saw them. plus, she hated yellow. She continued down the hallway and passed Music Room #2, approaching Music Room #3. It was kind of chilly, so she buttoned up her white coat, which was a little big on her, so the sleeves hung over a bit. She looked quite cute for a young high schooler.

"Music Room #3... Hmm... Maybe I should go check it out... I hear voices..."

Mara cracked open the door and peeked inside. She saw a boy who was a few feet taller than her, and gasped. She blushed a little, looking at him from top to bottom. She moved to the side of the door and gripped her chest. Her heart was beating a little faster than usual. She didn't understand why though. She had never liked any guys before and most guys avoided her anyways. They were apparently intimidated by her. She COULD be quite the aggressive 14 year old...

"...Maybe one more peek."

Mara looked through the crack in the door again, and stared at the boy. She hardly noticed anyone else in the room.

[Kilatani]

Mara cracked open the door and peeked inside. She saw a boy who was a few feet taller than her, and gasped.

Ryouta looked back at the slightly cracked door,seeing a small piece of black and white hair swaying back to its origin, he narrowed his eyes as he heard as small gasp. He looked back at the other who didnt seem to want to answer his questions, he decided he'd better check it out. This club cant be so expensive for those who come here to try to sneak in, or get a free show.

He turned his back to the others, placing his hands into his pocket. He approached the door, grabbing the handle and pulling it back swiftly as if someone was on it.

[Amu Hinamori]

Mara quickly side stepped against the wall, hoping that the boy wouldn't look too far out of the classroom. Mara held her breath as she waited for the boy to return back into the room.

[Kilatani]

Mara quickly side stepped against the wall, hoping that the boy wouldn't look too far out of the classroom. Mara held her breath as she waited for the boy to return back into the room.

Ryouta looked outside the doors and stepped out into the hallway. He looked both ways, left and right, making sure he didnt miss the person run away. As long as the hallways were and as fast as I reacted, he thought, she cant be too far. He heard a small bump against the wall behind the door. He blinked a few times and pulled the door behind him and saw a girl, completely red and almost breathless, flattenend against the wall.

"What are you doing?" he asked confused,"Is there a reason why you were hiding behind the door?"

His first thought was that the girl was probably curious as to what was behind the doors, his other thought was that she wasnt expecting what she saw.

He cupped her chin in his hand examining her face.
"Why is your face so red?" he inquired,"Are you sick?" Placing a hand on his forehead and on on hers

He noticed a small piece of paper tightly clutched in her hand, he snatched it out of her hand and read it.
"Library #2..." he looked at her. This girl was really out of place.

=============================================
"Oh.. I was just... looking. I heard voices and..."

Mara face turned a deep shade of red as he cupped her chin in his hand.

"N-no! I'm not sick, now can I have my paper back please?"

Mara reached for her paper.

"And It was too loud in that library so I left. I was just passing by here and I heard voices, so I came to check it out. I-is that a porblem?"

[Kilatani]

"N-no! I'm not sick, now can I have my paper back please?"

He relaxed a bit as he watched the girl reach out for her paper. He examined it one last time and tossed it back to her carelessly. She just as new as I am, as tall as she is she's at least a sophomore he thought, but caught glimpse of her I.D. So, she's just a tall freshmen.

"And It was too loud in that library so I left. I was just passing by here and I heard voices, so I came to check it out. I-is that a porblem?"

"You should mind your own business and keep your mind on your own matters, freshmeat." He checked out her physique,"As skinny as you are, the least of your problems is what other people are doing." With that he walked away from her and music room #3.

As long as Im here might as well do some exploring on my own, he dug his hands into his pocket and closely examined each and every detail of the architecture of the ritzy school.

He placed a finger to his lip lightly, I should try being nicer to the people here, they're different from the people of where I'm from. He looked back out the girl he had just met, she was just recollecting herself. She began to walk off, her face still a little pink.

Ryouta called out to her,"Hey! What's your name?" He kept a straight face. He wouldn't want anyone to think he was weak, especially this nosy girl.

[Amu Hinamori]

Ryouta called out to her,"Hey! What's your name?" He kept a straight face. He wouldn't want anyone to think he was weak, especially this nosy girl.

==================================================================
".....I am NOT nosy...."

Mara began to walk away when she heard him call out to her. She turned around, her short hair brushing to the side. She wondered what he wanted now as he asked her what her name was.

"Well, if you MUST know, my name is Mara Hikaru..."

Mara sighed and began to walk off again. This school year looked like it was going to suck big time for her.

[Kilatani]

He looked back at her scowling. He tried to be nice for once and yet it failed. He sighed smiling, he knew it would probably end up like this. Something told him to try harder and talk to the girl.

"Mara...?" he said in a low voice, she continued to walk down the hallway, she obviously couldnt hear,"M-Mara!" he called.

Why was he trying so hard to get this girls' attention, what was so special about this one? She was even more like the other girls he had met in his own town. Something about her made him want to try a little bit harder. He ran in her direction, grabbing her wrist.

"Hey, I was calling you." he let go of her wrist,"There was no reason to be so rude." he made sure to make eye contact. She was that pretty, she certainly didnt look that smart, so what was it about her.

[Amu Hinamori]

"Hey, I was calling you." he let go of her wrist,"There was no reason to be so rude." he made sure to make eye contact. She was that pretty, she certainly didnt look that smart, so what was it about her.
===================================================================
mara turned around when he grabbed her wrist.

"Well... I didn't mean for it to sound rude actually.. Sorry if I did sound rude..."

Mara could tell he was trying hard, but why...? He didn't seem to think much of her at first, so why was he trying now...? It was beyond her.

[Kilatani]

"Uh.....yeah..." He blushed a little, "Hey arent you new at this school too?" Looking away coolly.

He put his hands in his pocket and looked at her,"Maybe we can explore the school together..." Where did this idea come from? This was nothing like his to ask a girl anything, something is definately wrong?

[Amu Hinamori]

"Yeah, I'm a new student."


It was clear to her now. He liked her! And she liked him too. Apparently he was also a new student at this classy school.

"Umm... sure I guess we can..."

Mara blushed a little herself, sticking her hand in her coat pocket and smiling slightly.

[Kilatani]

This girl was acting a bit strage all of a sudden. He calmed down just a little and held his hand out toward Mara, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Um....ok.." he turned his head away, red in the cheeks.

His cell phone began to vibrate in his pocket. It was a text message from his 5 year old niece, Mai.

It read: "The lunch at this ritzy school sucks! Can you take me out to lunch, Okaa-san?"

Of course giving a cell phone to a 5 year old was a bit careless, but she was a different kind of 5 year old. She was exceptionally intelligent, but also quite troublesome at times.

He closed his phone, holding his phone as if he was thinking about something. He looked at Mara and sighed.

"I hope you dont have to be anywhere important." He quickly grabbed her wrist, rushing toward the front doors of the school, he dialed a number on his phone,"Yes, meet me up front." He looked back at Mara and sprinted faster.

[Amu Hinamori]

"I hope you dont have to be anywhere important." He quickly grabbed her wrist, rushing toward the front doors of the school, he dialed a number on his phone,"Yes, meet me up front." He looked back at Mara and sprinted faster.
===================================================================

Mara looked at his hand for a moment, and extended hers to take hold of it, when Ryouta's phone rang. She looked at him curiously when he closed the phone. She blushed as he grabbed her wrist and began to drag her along.

"Ah! J-jotto matte(sp?)!"

She sped up her pace as he sprinted faster heading towards the exit. She wonderd who he was talking to when he told someone on the phone to meet him at the front.

"W-where are we going...?"

She asked curiously, wondering what was goiong to happen.

[Zane Kiliso]

Of course it bothered Zane...he was jealous of how much time Kaoru and Hikaru got to spend together at school. He barely got to spend anytime with Hikaru...the only time he could was when Hikaru came over to his house...He bit his lip lightly, turning his head away from the twins slightly, mainly from Kaoru. He sighed and closed his eyes lightly, looking up at the two new-comers. A male and now a female...a female who was know leaving the Music Room. Whatever...he didn't seem to care anymore whether or not he had any customers...well, he managed to not show that he didn't care and hide his jealous from the rest of the Host Club. The guilt was eating him from the inside out that he and Hikaru had yet to tell the Host Club, but it was Kaoru he was more worried about...what if Kaoru took it badly? What if Kaoru hated him for it...Zane sighed again.

[Kilatani]

Ryouta pushed open the doors to the entrance of Ouran, he looked back at Mara, who was pratically flying behind him.

He spottes a long ivory and gold limo pull up, he smiled.

"We're going to pick up lunch for my niece, and as skinny as you are, i thought a nice hardy meal would be what a slender girl like you would need."

The limo driver opened a door for Ryouta, he tossed Mara into the back as if he was bowling and ran to the front.

He never liked school and, to him, any excuse to get out was good enough. But, he wouldnever leave just because he wanted to, he knew he had a future to think about, and a child that he had to take care of. He had to make something of himself, for Mai.

[Amu Hinamori]

Mara was basically flying behind Ryouta and was startled as she was tossed in the back seat.

"Um...am I really that skinny...? ?"

Mara asked as the car took off. She was wondering who Mai was and what she was like....
