Looking out the window I see my sister getting dragged by these beautiful women in a limousine. Two of them remind me of the twins, but they had a different uniform than Ouran.
'Lobelia Academy,' I thought as my eyes flared with fire. I had heard the story where Haruhi was torn and Lobelia tried to get her in. I didn't like them, I had seen some shows of there's because I had always been a fan of theatre but they ruined it for me.
I sat back down at the table, not wanting to get involved with Lobelia girls, if Haruhi can deal with them once, she can for sure do it again.
...
It's been a couple minutes of me reading and practicing my speech when I hear a singsong, "Haruhi! Come out and play~!" Without looking up from my speech book I could tell dad was walking towards the door, as he had just woken up.
He opened the door and immediately the Host Club started walking away, which I giggled at. I guess Mori could hear me because he slightly moved his head and fixed his eyes one mine, he stared at me emotionless until he winked with a smirk.
I froze.
'What the hell' my face burns bright red as I stick my face back in the book, the whole conversation I was listening to and in the end they came inside. Mori sitting next to me and sneakily grabbing my hand, which I obliged to. But of course not without Honey sitting next to him with flowers and looking at us with happiness.
Dad then told us a whole story about how mom went to Lobelia Academy, and it made sense how she was able to put up with dads over dramatic behavior. I wasn't surprised, she was nice and not petty like they are now.
I hated those girls. I didn't have the best past with Lobelia. I went to the middle school until they practically bullied me senseless because of my voice.
I liked the piano, and because of the keys and vibrations, I could usually pick up on it. I still sometimes play the piano when I'm out, the ones that usually are on display at the mall. And because of my talent with the instrument, I was well known at Lobelia, but those are memories I pushed back in order to move forward.
...
You've got to be kidding me.
"Maybe.. but maybe I wanted to be seen with good looking men! And my lovely daughter!" My Dad cockily comes out behind a pole, me and the rest of the Host Club behind him sweat dropping.
We're all trying to sneak into the school. Key word: trying.
I hold Mori's hand, a little nervous, the building was always so intimidating, but it's scary to be back.
Mori looks at me and noticed my discomfort, though he doesn't question it, he just rubs his thumb over my hand and whispers in my ear, "I'll protect you."
My eyes widen.
"Soon, you'll find someone to protect you from awful people Y/N."
When will I notice?
"You'll just know, and when you do, you're heart will flutter, and a whole new color comes into the world."
Thank you mommy.
The gates open and I'm practically dragged in and now I'm wearing a Lobelia club shirt. What's that girls name again? Oh right.
"Thank you Lady Benibara! We wish you luck today!" Is what we repeat over and over for the club to make sure we're the real deal, though one of them is staring down at me.
Whispers are over the crowd of crazy girls when one of them comes up to me and holds out a paper, blushing like crazy.
"I-I've always been a fan of your playing..! And when you left.. I-I was really sad! So please sign this!" She bows a full 90 degree angle and I'm taken aback.
What about everyone else mommy?
"Well, one day, they'll praise you. Not for being deaf and surviving in society, but for your talents and everything you are as a person."
People don't like me though.
"Some are just scared to go out of the crowd that laughs and howls. When all they want to do is comfort you and tell you, that you've done a great job, remember, there's always one odd one in the pack."
I couldn't help myself and I smiled at her gently, patting her head with my hands and saying softly, "I'd love to sign it, what's your name?"
People are wide opened to say the least, the deaf girl they had known all along, the one that couldn't speak. Can now speak as clear as the sky with no clouds.
She comes up and hands me the paper with her nose bleeding and everyone then stands behind her, bombarding me to sign something of theirs.
The Host Club and my dad was speechless. Owl wasn't though, I could hear him explain my past at Lobelia, he really did dig deep.
In the corner of my eye, I can see Mori, his upper lip slightly turned, and his body isn't tense like it normally is. We make eye contact.
'I think I found that someone.. mom.'
~~~
When I finally get done with signing everyone's papers, Tamaki immediately comes up to me and geeks out on piano.
"Y/N what's your favorite piece to play?! I love Beethoven's peices!"
"I like him, but I like Mozart and Chopin."
"AH WE NEED TO PLAY TOGETHER!!"
"Oh.. uh, okay puppy!"
When I smile at him I could tell he was excited, I didn't know Tamaki played... and he asked me to play with him..
"Y/N."
Mori, I look to him and he doesn't do anything other than soften his eyes, "You-"
"HARUHI CAN SING?!"
Mori is interrupted by Tamaki and we look towards their direction to notice that my sister was, in fact, singing. Or, what looked like it and it didn't take long for another girl to break the cord to the radio and cause Haruhi to keep lip syncing.
They all deadpan and Tamaki looks disappointed, along with Hikaru.
"I could have told you that."
~~~
"That Ootori!" Tamaki fumes with frustration as we al see Kyoya at the sound booth with another lady. He was a sneaky one.
Mori didn't let go of my hand though, throughout the whole way through, my dad had been eyeing Mori like a hawk since he had his hand intertwined with mine. But it didn't stop him from looking at me with glances or patting my head every now and then. It was cute, he was cute.
The show soon started and we were just watching my poor clown of a sister perform like a robot. But, she seemed she was enjoying the light shining on her in a different way.
"And now.. to seal it with a kiss."
Forgot about her. Beniassah is what I called her. Not to be mean, but because she pressured me into many things when I went to school here, one of them being apart of the Zuka club. Other than that, she would constantly be there to capture any mistake I made, it was a nightmare.
Haruhi backed away, "No way! I'm not kissing you!"
"Maiden please! Let me show those barbarians of a club how to truly treat a lady!"
A spot light shined on us and I pale as me and Beni make eye contact.
"Maiden.. Y/N?"
"Oh no."
"Two beautiful Maidens! I must have their first kiss to claim it as my own! We can always share can't we ladies?!"
"Y/N?!" Haruhi's voice chimes in and I cringe.
"Maiden! You know this Y/N?!"
"Y-Yeah, were sisters!"
"SISTERS?! Ohh! How tragic! A love triangle between two sisters! Oh ladies! I'm sure we can figure something out!"
"We don't love you!" Me and Haruhi exclaim at the same time and now the Host Club has somehow made their way to the stage.
Haruhi lifts up with Beni around her and I clench my fists. "Let her go!"
"Oh my dear Maiden! That cannot be negotiated!"
'Built like a dented soda can and you telling me, with that horse yee-hawing voice, that you can't let her go!'
"Haruhi! I'll catch you!"
"No!"
Haruhi gets out of Beni's grip after a picture came up of Haruhi and a.. boy kissing?!
"WHAT THE HELL GOES ON IN THAT HOST CLUB!?" Me and my dad yell at the same time.
Haruhi jumps down and just lands on Tamaki's face. Beni somehow gets down and then she grabs me.
'Since when did I say you can touch me?!'
"Fine! I'll steal hers!" She exclaims and puckers her lips, but before she can touch mine, I feel a hand wrap around my waist and I feel soft lips on mine. They were sweet and warm.. no way these were Beni's.. I opened my eyes and my gaze goes wide at the look of Mori kissing me.
Wait.. MORI IS KISSING ME?!
"Mm!"
He pulls back and looks at my lips and strokes them with his thumb, I look up at him with my big eyes and I'm infatuated with the way he looks at me.
"Too late."
"B-Bear.." I blush profoundly at the comment. What was happening to me?!
