The American

Ch. 4 The First Day Part 3

I looked at the three knuckle heads around me as we headed to lunch. "So what you're telling me is that she broke a vase, and now she's working off her debt as a host at your club?" I sighed boredly as we turned into the cafeteria.

The twins replied, "Yup," in perfect unison as we entered the room.

I looked around and saw Kyoya-senpai and a very dramatic guy next to him. Kyoya noticed me and smirked, and the blonde noticed. His gaze went from Kyoya to me, then from me to Kyoya. Then his eyes trailed to Haruhi.

"HARUHI!" He cheered as he almost tackled her to the ground.

They looked at me as I stood in front of Haruhi and held the blonde by his arm so he didn't face plant the ground.

"So Haruhi, is this guy a stalker or friend?" I asked as I narrowed my eyes at him suspiciously.

"Kat he's just an aquantince," she mumbled. The guy dead panned and went off to a corner.

"Gee Haruhi, that was rough," I chuckled as I teased her.

Then Kyoya walked over, "Katherine have you forgotten about our deal?" He asked as he pulled out his notebook.

I looked at him with a kind smile. "How can I forget senpai? You were the first friend I made here after all," I chuckled as he looked up at me from his book.

Haruhi looked between us and poked me. "When did you two meet?"

"Oh I met Kyoya-senpai last week when my family and I came here to finish up the paper work," I replied as we started walking towards the table.

Then suddenly the emo blonde boy came over and scarred me by jumping on me. "ARE YOU ONE OF HARUHI'S FRIENDS?" He yelled excitedly as he bounced up and down on my shoulders.

"Kitty-chop!" I yelled as I whacked him on his head.

He went to the floor holding his head and I heard the twins snickering. "Way to go Kat-chan!"

I looked down at the blonde and bowed, "I apologize for kitty-chopping you. It's an instinct I developed when I was training."

The guy seemed to shake it off and come closer to me, "Well it's okay my princess. Your beaut-"

I looked at Kyoya and Haruhi, she was dead panning and Kyoya raised his black book.

WHACK!

"Tamaki, please stop harassing Katherine. She is not so easily moved by sweet words," he said as he swooped in and removed Tamaki from me and sat me down at the table.

Haruhi took the other seat on my left and Tamaki immediately sat across from me.
The twins soon came over with their trays and sat down on both sides of Tamaki.

"So explain yourself Katherine. How come you seem to know Haruhi so well?" He asked as he stared intently at me.

I raised my eyebrows and leaned over to Haruhi to whisper, "Are you sure he's not a stalker?"

She laughed and shook her head no. I sighed and looked back at Tamaki.

"I lived with Haruhi for a year during my past stay in Japan. I became like her older sibling in that time while helping her with her studying techniques and she helped me with my Japanese," I replied as I opened my bento box and started to eat.

Tamaki looked at me with wonderous eyes. "Y-you got to live with her? F-For a year?"

I looked up at him with my mouth full of sushi and rice. Supposedly looking like a chipmunk with my puffed out cheeks. So before I nodded my head, Tamaki and the twins yelled, "Kawaī!"

Then Honey and Takashi joined in the giant gathering of over dramatic-ness.

"Kitty!" Honey cheered as he sat himself on my lap.

I laughed and ruffled his hair, "Hey Honey Bear."

The others, besides Takashi, looked at us and repeated, "Honey Bear?"

I raised my brows at them. "Yeah. I call him, Honey Bear. Do you have a problem with the nickname I gave him several years ago?" I asked as a dark aroura emitted from behind me.

They all backed down, "No! Of course not!" Tamaki and the twins yelled in unison.

I sighed and picked Honey up and sat him down where I had sat. Then I took my bento box and packed it up.

"Hey Kitty where are you going?" Honey asked as I gathered the last of my things.

I looked up at the others and smiled kindly. "I have a slight head ache, so I think I'm going to finish my lunch in the maze garden," I replied as sweetly as I could.

Kyoya stood up too, "I think I'll join you Katherine."

I looked at him and continued to smile, but this smile was a more of a 'thank you smile.'

He smirked and nodded, understanding and we headed out.

~Time Skip~

"So I was informed of Haruhi's situation," I said calmly as we sat down in a rose gazebo in the middle of a maze.

Kyoya remained emotionless in the face. "Really?" He replied as he started to continue his lunch.

I looked at him as I continued re-unpack my bento box. "Don't act coy senpai. I heard about it and I wish to offer her help," I replied coolly as I picked up my chop sticks and began to eat my sushi and rice balls.

"How do you plan on helping Haruhi out Kat?" Kyoya asked after he whipped out his book.

I finished chewing my food and looked up. "You have a musical prodigy in your midst, as well as an excellent business manger and planner. I'll lend you my services to help pay off her debt," I replied as I looked up at him to see he was staring at me.

He smirked and his glasses glared. "I'll think about your offer Kat. But please, tell me more about yourself. You're...unique from the other girls that go here, even from Haruhi." Kyoya stated as his smirk turned into a kind smile.

I smiled slightly and a faint blush was on my cheeks. "My price is if I tell you something, you tell me something. Deal?" I asked as I held my hand out.

He took it, "Deal."
