The Overflow

Chapter 1

"I thought this room was vacant." The young female wondered. Tamaki took this chance to exaggerate and promote the host club while trying to swoon Haruhi. "Only those with excellent social standing and those from filthy rich families are lucky enough to spend their time here at the elite private school. The Ouran Host Club is where the school's handsomest boys, with too much time on their hands, entertain young ladies who also have way too much time on their hands. Just think of it as Ouran Academy's elegant playground for the super-rich and beautiful." Tamaki said. The female began to look around trying to understand what exactly went on. "This is a host club?" she questioned while being very unsure of everyone. The twins were approximately a foot away from her as they took notice of her figure.

"Oh wow, it's a boy!" The twins exclaimed, closing in the space between their target. Kyoya's black book held many secrets, secrets I wished to uncover. Glances from the owner back to its pages began to seem like an endless cycle as more information was being questioned. "Hikaru, Kaoru, and Lena, I believe this young man is in the same class as you, isn't he?" Kyoya questioned as my only response was to nod, while the twins took a more verbal approach. "Yeah, but he's shy. He doesn't act very sociably, so we don't know much about him." There it was, a little smirk. I have known Kyoya for a few years now, he possesses intelligence, hard work, skills, and now that smirk. The smirk itself was a little signal just to showcase he found something out. "Hm. Well, that wasn't very polite. Welcome to the Ouran Host Club, Mr. Honor Student, it is a pleasure to have you here." Kyoya stated emphasizing on the male identification used.

A gasp filled the room as Tamaki got excited. "What? You must be Haruhi Fujioka! You're the exceptional honor student we've heard about." At this point, he held enough excitement that it could probably last for months. Haruhi questioned how this information was known. "How did you know my name?" She spoke for a response on her personal information. Kyoya seemed to enjoy more of this by each passing minute. "Why, you're infamous. It's not every day that a commoner gains entrance into our academy. You must have an audacious nerve to work hard enough to fight your way into this school as an honor student, Mr. Fujioka." Kyoya stated while standing at a respectable distance. "Well uh, thank you I guess" Haruhi said, unable to get the gist of the whole situation that was happening.

"You're welcome. You're a hero to other poor people, Fujioka. You've shown the world that even a poor person can excel at an elite private academy. It must be hard for you to constantly be looked down upon by others." Tamaki spoke without realizing any intentionally ill mannered tone. What can I say? The boy is a little slow. "Spurned. Neglected. But that doesn't matter now. Long live the poor! We welcome you, poor man, to our world of beauty." Tamaki continued on with his insults. On the other hand, I was already over this and I believe Haruhi was almost there as well. "Being dramatic like always" I scoffed as the tall man beside me let out a little chuckle but tried to plan it off cool by pushing up his glasses.

"I'm outta here." The brown haired female stated as she walked to the double doored entrance before Honey took action. Honey short stature and sweet overtones in his voice could make anyone second guess his actual age. However he held himself with much respect for all things cute and sugary. "Hey! Come back here Haru-chan! You must be like a superhero or something. That's so cool!" Honey called out. The honor student was absolutely done with all of their shenanigans and made sure to voice in. "I'm not a hero. I'm an honor student. And who are you calling "Haru-chan"!?"

Topics seemed to constantly form into more. "I never would've imagined the famous scholar would be so openly gay. So tell me what kind of guys you're into. Do you like the strong, silent type? The boy Lolita? How about the mischievous type, or the cool type?" Tamaki slowly got closer and closer, closing in on the open space between him and Haruhi. "Uh... I, uh... It's not like that. I was just looking for a quiet place to study." Haruhi voiced nervously due to the close proximity while Tamaki continued with his teasing. "Or maybe... You're into a guy like me. What do you say?" Tamaki questioned while gently raising up her chin in a flirtatious way. Without realizing her position, Haruhi leaned back making contact with a pedestal which contained an expensive vase. The pedestal rocked back and forth before the vase could not balance anymore. The vase caught air and then hurled to the ground breaking into hundreds of shards.

To make the moment even more dramatic the twins stepped up to cast blame. "Aww." They voiced simultaneously before Hikaru expressed what troubles this caused. "We were going to feature that Renaissance vase in an upcoming school auction." I closed my eyes trying to think of a fast solution to the problem but came up short. "Seems this will put the host club at a large loss." I told everyone before Kyoya spoke. "How much of a loss?" he questioned, waiting impatiently for the total expense. I took a deep breath before explaining because I knew it would cause more stress to both me and Kyoya. "The bidding on that vase was supposed to start at ¥8,000,000." I stated.

"Oh, now you've done it, commoner." Kaoru voiced stepping closer to Haruhi while seeming a little tense. The atmosphere of the room changed drastically within a few seconds. "What? ¥8,000,000!? How many thousand yen is that? How many thousands are in a million? Uh, I'm gonna have to pay you back." Haruhi hurriedly mumbled out trying not to freak out about the pricing of her mistake. The twins took the opportunity to stay within their standing positions and bash the poor girl. "With what money? You can't even afford a school uniform." They voiced in sync. Kaoru followed the questioning while knowing he was also insulting her. "What's with that grubby outfit you've got on anyway?"

Silence fell upon the room as everyone searched for a solution but came up short. Or at least that's what we thought until.... "Well, what do you think we should do Tamaki?" Kyoya asked Tamaki. Tamaki showed a smile to relieve everyone's negative thoughts and answered. "There's a famous saying you may have heard of Fujioka, When in Rome, you should do as the Romans do. Since you have no money, you can pay with your body. That means starting today, you're the Host Club's dog." A smile made its way to my face as I began to think of the new adventures we were about to face. 'Like if the host club couldn't get anymore crazier but clearly I stand corrected.'
