A Host with a Secret [Haruhi]

[Tamaki Suou]

[I'm using my character Kohaku in this one. ^^ I hope they'll become friends and she'll slowly realize Haruhi is a girl. Then flip out when she does... Heh heh]

The Ouran Host Club was a tradition in Ouran. In fact, it's popularity went beyond the charming men serving tea to the ladies or the intricate and beautiful cosplay they did. No, in fact, it was more a family with the father and mother, Tamaki Suou and Kyouya Ootori with the usual nuclear siblings. Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin along with Honey-sempai, Mori-sempai and the newbie natural, Haruhi.

Kohaku Nagare waltzed into the 3rd music room with all her glory. Not only was she admired and feared, but many envied her because of her close-knit relationship with the Club members, especially Tamaki. She was the only (known) girl ever to get so close to them. With her long brown hair and her olive green striking orbs, Kohaku (or Haku). The hair flipped in the air effortlessly as she waltzed in and waved at the twins. She then turned to grin and greet Tamaki before sitting down at an empty table.

Yes she was an eyesight. With her sharp looks and her casually worn uniform, Haku sat there like an angel on a pedestol. Someone might be exaggerating at this point, but she was too preoccupied as if waiting for someone. In fact, Kohaku had designated the first person she ever had designated in the Host Club today. She told Kyouya that she wished to spend some time with Fujioka Haruhi since he was the only one that Haku wasn't close to yet. Plus something fishy about that boy just draws her to him...

Haku raised her head and saw a figure approaching and her lips spread into a small smile. "Ah.." She said and smiled a little brighter.

[Fujioka Haruhi]

Haruhi moved threw the room a little slowly as girls stopped to talk to her.

"Haruhi-kun! Haruhi-kun! I'm so pleased that the Host Club is open again!" Suddenly the girl, who had favourited Haruhi for a while, turned nervous. "Would I be able to designate you tomorrow please?"

The natural Haruhi smiled. "Of course. I would love to see you tomorrow." Her expression turned thoughtful. "I may ask Tamaki-senpai to lengthen my designation slots so we can talk about our time apart." Nothing in Haruhi's tone suggested any hint of seduction. That was the appeal of Haruhi- sensible and calm, yet kind and courtious. She was generally designated by those who found Tamaki too over-powering, and prefered a more down to earth boy. This of course meant that the girl was sent into a blush and you could practically see the hearts swirling round her head.

"Please excuse me Hime." Haruhi said kindly, bowing and making a face of regret. "But I have a designation to get to." And with a flourish that Tamaki had taught her- she wasn't quite that much of a natural, he left the girl to sit at the table with the lady who had asked for her presence.

"Kohaku Hime." She said smiling kindly and taking hold of the teapot's handle. "What a pleasure to see you today. Maybe I offer you some tea?" Her movements were graceful and fluid. It was in fact her feminine charms that made her seem all the more attractive as a boy- odd, but true. "I was surprised that you did not designate Tamaki today." Then, realising that this could sound as if she did not like the girl's presence corrected herself by adding. "Surprised but pleased of course." She smiled again, that inner light shining from within to make her features glow. Haruhi of course was completely oblivious to the sighs in the room from a few of the girls that had been watching her.

Haruhi had grown used to acting as a boy. It almost came naturally to her now- she hadn't been that feminine to begin with. Taking out a few delicate tea cups, she began to make the tea. It was a tradition in the Host Club for designations and discussions with clients to be held in the presence of refreshments...
