The Overflow

Chapter 7

Tamaki left Haruhi, and held out a rose also, while scolding the twins. "Stop that, how many times do I have to tell you boys to be more courteous to our first-time guests." After his small lecture, his attention shifted back on the girl. "Please, you don't have to be afraid, my princess. I welcome you to the Ouran Host Club." Tamaki concluded his invitation trying to motion the female to enter farther into the room. However, nobody was expecting the female to harshly shove Tamaki face and yell. "NO! Don't touch me! You're a phony!" The female shouted while gasps can be heard. I, on the other hand, thought this moment was hilarious, so I tried to hold back my laughter as I received a death glare from Tamaki. "What do you mean I'm phony?" The blonde questioned while holding his face. The female pointed at Tamaki before explaining. "Just what I said, you're a phony! I find it hard to believe that someone like you is the prince character of this host club." The female told the blonde. Gasps echoed in the room. "Damn that's kind of harsh, ain't it?" I whispered to the twins as they both nodded.

The unnamed female let all hell loose as she went on a rant of how she thought Tamaki was phony. "You shouldn't spread your love around so easily like that, you stupid. You must be a dimwitted narcissist! You're incompetent! You're a commoner! You're disgusting!" The female finished insulting the boy. Each insult was like a lightning strike to the rich boy's heart, making him fall back onto the floor dramatically slow. "He's created a new technique!" Hikaru called out while his brother finished his thought. "One man slow motion!" Kaoru called out naming the technique. Kyoya finally appeared from his work trying to put together the disarranged bits and pieces. "I don't suppose you are...." Kyoya began to ask before the female took off running in his direction, stepping on Tamaki in the process. "It's you! Kyoya!" The girl called out hugging the boy. "Oh how I've longed to meet you! My one and only prince charming ...." The girl said while daydreaming.

After the commotion died down and everyone changed back into their school uniforms. The void of an explanation was at a need. The once bare sofas were now occupied with all the members plus the unfamiliar female, as the topic of Kyoya having a fiance was needing to be dealt with. "You're fiance?" Hikaru questioned, while Kaoru called out to the male for an explanation. "Of course! My name is Renge Houshakuji and I'm transferring into Ouran Academy's first year class A tomorrow." The girl introduced, which made Tamaki retreat into his emo corner, pouting. "Why is he sulking?" Hikaru questioned. "Because mommy was keeping a secret from daddy." Kaoru said while smirking.

"Whatever, why does everyone insist on referring to us like we're husband and wife?" Kyoya asked, obviously annoyed with the new subject. Instead of clearing the story up, Renge continued on with her delusions. "Ours is a story of love at first sight! I couldn't resist the way you were adoring those flowers in the backyard when you thought no one else was looking. And how sweet it was when you reached out to that poor little injured kitten." Renge said while trying to help bring the image to life in everyone's minds. However, the twins were not convinced. "Is she serious?" They questioned before Haruhi asked, "Could you have the wrong person?"

I looked to my right to see the boy of the topic. "How delusional is she?" I asked the boy, knowing very well he would not do these things unless it would benefit him. Kyoya shrugged his shoulders while trying to fight the upcoming headache that was forming. "No way! I can recognize my love anywhere! He's a gentleman whose kind to everyone but doesn't ask for anything in return! He likes solitude but in fact sometimes he can get lonely." Renge told the hosts, while the twins began shouting in the background telling her to shut up. "He even looks like the star of the popular dating sim Uki Doki Memorial! You're my real-life Ichijo Miyabi!" Renge yelled while pointing to Kyoya.

The hosts pondered on the familiarity of the name of the game before coming to the conclusion, Renge is none other than a full-fledged otaku. "Oh I get it now! You're in love with that character. So you're projecting that love onto Kyoya. And somehow deluded yourself into thinking that you both are engaged. I assume this Miyabi character probably shares similar looks and has glasses as well." I stated as I came to the conclusion, Renge seemed more enthusiastic than before. "My real prince charming! Ichijo Miyabi! I can't wait to get married and have the prettiest babies ever!" The female daydreamed as the rest of us came closer to Kyoya. Tamaki sat closely to the boy ready to question him. "So, she made it up, you're not really her fiance, right?" Tamaki asked. The intensive atmosphere built up as everyone waited on Kyoya's answer. "Well, no. I don't remember ever asking her hand in marriage. Besides, this is the first time I ever met the woman." The tension deflated as responses of "why didn't you say that sooner" arrose.

"According to my research, I understand that you're in charge of managing the club, is that true Kyoya?" Renge questioned while taking a seat next to him on the couch. "That's right! Kyo-chan is our director! And then Lee-chan helps out!" Honey told the female. "You're the director? That's perfect! Oh wow, I've always wanted to wear a sandwich board to advertise a business." Renge said while ignoring the other half of Honey's statement. The twins got more bored by the second. "We don't advertise, we're just a host club." The twins said, showcasing a blank expression. "I've made up my mind! From now on, I'm going to be the manager of this host club!" Renge yelled excitedly while spinning around. Quiet growls echoed from the twins while everyone began to become irritated. "Um, listen Kyoya I-" Before Tamaki could continue, Kyoya cut his sentence off. "Miss Houshakuji is the only daughter of a very important Ootori family client. So, please be polite and try not to offend her alright?" Kyoya informed the group, receiving sad sighs from Tamaki.
