Not me posting another chapter only 9 hours later💀💀
Third Person Point of View
Italics is only Kasai's thoughts unless stated otherwise.
Kasai sat by himself. The club hasn't started yet, so he sat around and scrolled through his phone. The other hosts were doing their own things and preparing for the club's opening. "Kassie!" Honey-senpai called out and walked over to the vampire.
"Hey, Senpai," Kasai greeted. When he lifted his head, he noticed the short blond was that Honey had a blanket wrapped around his shoulders and Usa-chan in his arms. "Where's Mori-senpai?" Kasai asked after he couldn't spot the taller of the two third-years.
"He's at kendo practice," Honey mumbled. Honey sat down beside Kasai. "Can I take a nap right here, Kassie?" Honey asked in a tired tone.
"Here? Yeah, of course," Kasai agreed. Honey hummed and fell down onto the couch, and put his head in Kasai's lap.
"Thank you, Kassie," Honey-senpai whispered and closed his eyes. Kasai hummed back. He didn't think this is what Honey-senpai meant, but he went along with it anyway. Kasai went back to scrolling through social media, but he made sure to turn his volume off so it wouldn't disturb Honey-senpai.
Within the next few minutes, Honey was dead-asleep. He had the pale blue blanket wrapped tightly around his body, and the pink stuffed bunny was cradeled in his arms. Kasai looked away from his phone and stared down at the sleeping lolita.
"Honey fell asleep quickly. He must have been tired."
While he watched him sleep, he noticed Honey-senpai would increasingly move around more.
"Is he uncomfortable or something?" Kasai questioned. He hesitantly placed his hand on top of the blond's head and began to smooth down his hair. "Oh, that seemed to calm him down," Kasai hummed.
"Hey, Mori-senpai. Honey-senpai's not with you?" Haruhi greeted the quiet male. For a second, Mori was confused and slightly panicked. Honey told him he'd be waiting in the Host Club room. Mori relaxed, though, when Kasai spoke up.
"He's taking a nap over here," Kasai explained in gentle tone. He made sure not to move around to much, so Honey wouldn't wake up. When the other hosts heard, they all took a few cautious steps over to the two.
"He's a third-year and still takes naps?" Haruhi asked and gazed down at the sleeping lolita. "Isn't he a little old for naps?"
"Aww, Kasai, he's sleeping on your lap," Hikaru cooed.
"And you're playing with his hair," Kaoru added in the same tone as his brother. The two of them began laughing.
"Careful. You wouldn't want to wake up Honey-senpai," Kyoya warned, and the twins instantly stopped.
"He asked if he could take a nap over here, and I agreed. I didn't know he meant this," Kasai spoke softly. He continued to gently stroke the blond's head. When he glanced back up from his lap, he noticed that the hosts had backed up.
"Please, Kasai-senpai, you like that he's sleeping on your lap," Hikaru huffed from behind his hiding position.
"You wouldn't be stroking his head like that if you didn't," Kaoru reasoned.
"Wanna bet?" Kasai stared blankly at them for a second then pulled his hand away from Honey's sleeping figure. Almost instantly, Honey began to fidget and let out a few quiet huffs.
"Wait, no, he's going to wake up. Kasai, keep going," Tamaki whisper-shouted and dove behind the couch with the two brothers. Kasai let out a small laugh and continued his actions. Honey-senpai settled down again.
From a few feet away, Mori watched curiously. He was a little confused when Honey told him that would wait for him at the host club instead because Honey usually waited in the kendo room with Mori-senpai. Now, he understood. He's noticed Honey-senpai's affinity for the younger vampire, but he wasn't expecting this.
"Intresting..." Mori thought.
"Are you scared he's going to wake up or something?" Kasai asked, confused but also intrigued. "It must be really bad if they're afraid of Honey-senpai. I mean, look at him. He's adorable."
"Why are you guys hiding? He's actually kind of cute when he's asleep," Haruhi said and inched closer to the blond.
"Come back! It's safe over here!" Tamaki called out and tried to wave her over.
"What're you talking about?" Haruhi responded but approached them anyways.
"Honey-senpai wakes up in a very bad mood after napping," Tamaki explained. He was crouching behind the couch.
"Huh? He can't be that scary though," Kasai scoffed, still staring down at the little blond.
"Now, this may just be a rumor, but the Haninozuka family once visited a U.S. military base to give combat training. Supposedly, Huni-Senpai slept through most of it because of his jet lag," Tamaki described, and Kasai listened carefully. "Then a soldier came in and carelessly tried to wake him up, since he had been sleeping for so long..." he paused. "On that day, he wiped out two entire platoons of soldiers, and not just any soldiers, green berets!"
"How terrifying!" Hikaru and Kaoru responded.
"I don't believe it," Kasai replied and shook his head. "I mean, there's no way, right?"
"Yeah, me neither," Haruhi agreed and shook her head at the trio. "You're exaggerating. It's impossible for that story to be true."
"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?" Tamaki argued.
"Yeah, so what?"
"But, Haruhi, that means he's the same blood type as Kyoya!" Tamaki whisper-shouted. Haruhi's eyes widened. Kasai raised his eyebrows and watched the hosts with an unimpressed expression. Hikaru, Kaoru, Tamaki, and Haruhi all turned to look at Kyoya.
"They can't be serious."
"What's the matter? Do you guys have a problem with my blood type?" Kyoya asked without looking up from the computer.
"Do you guys really believe that blood type dictates your personality?" Kasai raised his eyebrows.
"Just wait, Kasai," Tamaki warned. "If someone else wakes up Honey-senpai, you'll see what we're talking about."
"Well, he's going to have to wake up sooner or later. Doesn't the host club start in just a few minutes?" Kasai asked. The room was silent for a second. Even Kyoya stopped typing.
"We vote for Kasai to wake him up!" Hikaru and Kaoru broke the silence.
"I second that!" Tamaki agreed. Kasai rolled his eyes. The vampire looked down at the sleeping third-year and slowly stopped stoking the top of his hair. As expected, Honey began to fidget.
"Honey-senpai," Kasai spoke softly. "It's time to wake up now." Honey let out a small growl and opened his eyes and sat up. He glared at Kasai angrily. The trio slid further down into their hiding spot, but Kasai wasn't phased.
"He's going to die," Hikaru and Kaoru whispered.
"Hey, there. Did you have a good nap?" Kasai asked and smoothed down Honey's bedhead. He was trying not to laugh about Honey's angry expression. Kasai's hand drew closer to Honey's face, and when it was within biting reach, he chomped down on Kasai's hand.
"Pfft-" Kasai bursted out in laughter with his hand still in Honey's mouth. Honey furrowed his eyebrows, and his bite on Kasai's hand loosened as the vampire continued to laugh.
"Is he crazy or something?" Hikaru whispered.
"How is that not hurting him?" Tamaki gasped.
"I'm sorry. I don't mean to laugh. You just remind me of a pomeranian," Kasai explained. He pulled his hand out of the third-year's mouth and patted the top of Honey's head. "Good puppy," Kasai snickered before getting up to walk away.
"Huh?" Honey sat there in the same place with a confused expression and a growing blush. "P-Puppy?" he repeated and watched Kasai walk away with wide eyes.
From then on, he was certain...
