Sakura's PoV

"Yuuki, stop in the name of fashion! I refuse to let you wear that on a date!" I yelled at my twin. She was wearing jeans and a heart-encrusted cardigan. "Take it off. Right Now."

"Sakura, did all the Valentine's chocolate go to your head? We have to go to school, I don't have time to pick out another outfit." She rolled her eyes.

"That's okay, I picked an outfit for you already. Now take that off and put your Valentine's day outfit that Tamaki requested. I'll go get the car," I instructed as I picked up the two bags holding mine and Yuuki's date outfits. She stuck out her tongue and put on the pink Valentine's day themed maid uniform.

"Yuuki! Come on, just put the bow in your hair! You'll look adorable, I promise," I said, attacking my twin with a heart-patterned bow.  I'd just managed to clip it into her short hair when a group of boys walked up holding boxes of....Chocolates?

"You two are adorable! Here,"The boys stammered, thrusting chocolate at us. They turned bright red and ran away. My twin looked at me.

"What just happened...?" Yuuki said, confused, holding a tower of chocolates. Kyoya appeared, with his trademark smirk.

"What just happened was us increasing our profits by 15% for today. Well, as long as you ladies comply, which I'm sure you will," An or else was implied.

"Kyoya-kun, was that a threat?" I said in my cutest voice.

"No, it's just a casual reminder that Yuuki broke one of our more expensive tea-sets yesterday." He said, pointing a finger at my twin.

"Tamaki's the one who dropped it!" She said, glaring at Kyoya.

"No, no it was you." Kyoya said, smirking. "Anyway, the point stands. We have a line of boys halfway down the hall waiting to give you chocolate. I plan on making the most of this opportunity by offering you as limited edition hostesses."

"Kyoya-" I started.

"Let's just get this over with, Saku-chan. There's no way we're going to win," Yuuki sighed. Kyoya lead us to two hastily made hosting-stations, complete with tea-sets, cake and roses. I fluffed my skirt and sat down. This was going to be a long day.

Yuuki's PoV

If the growing piles of chocolate by my table was anything to go by, Sakura and I were a lot more admired then we thought.The best part had been Kyoya angrily staring at everyone Skaura had hosted. I guess profits sometimes do come second to him.

I sipped my tea as another customer arrived at my table. "H-Hello Yuuki-sama." A nervous boy from 1-C greeted me. He handed me a box of chocolates and I poured him a cup of tea.

"I-I like y-your haircut," He stuttered his way through a compliment.

"Really?" I giggled, touching my hair. "That's so nice of you to say! I was so worried that it might be too short." Hosting is so much easier then the club let on; it was so much easier then making the snacks or cosplay- all I had to do was flirt.

"Oh, no Yuuki-sama! It's adorable!" He said passionately, almost splashing me with tea as he slammed his teacup down. I giggled again and looked around the room to see how everyone else was doing. Sakura was chatting away with some boy, looking happy. Everyone else seemed to be fairing quite well, but Hikaru was staring daggers at me. More then a little intense. I smiled an waved at him and went back to chatting with my costumer.

"I simply love Valentine's day, don't you?" I gushed, trying to make conversation.

"Y-Yeah." He said. "The sweets are the best part."

"That's what I think too!" I exclaimed, taking a bite of cake for emphasis. The boy turned pink.

"I-I have to go," He said awkwardly, looking down at his teacup.

"Already?!" I pouted. "But we just started talking!"

"S-Sorry, Yuuki-sama. Hikaru-senpai is scaring me." He said, looking over my shoulder. I turned to look at Hikaru, who was still glaring at my costumer.

"Oh! Don't worry about him," I giggled again. Even I was getting tried of my giggling.

"Oh. Um, well, my time's over anyway. Thank you Yuuki-cha- I mean Yuuki-sama," He stood up quickly and walked away. I walked over to Hikaru.

"What do you think you're doing! That's the fifth one you've scared away this hour!" I said. Hikaru took a sip of tea.

"I don't know what you're talking about," He said, with a challenge in his voice.

"Do you really want to challenge me, Hikaru?" I snapping my fingers.

"Oh yes I do, Yuuki-sama," He smirked.

"Oh it's on, Hikaru-senpai," I said, returning to my seat, and getting out a clean cup next costumer. A group of girls walked in. I could tell they were headed in the twin's direction so I intercepted them halfway across the room.

"Are you headed for the twin's table?" I asked, innocently. They all nodded excitedly.

"Oh no! Then I'll have tell you a terrible, terrible, secret. They- they... Its to terrible to say!" I said dramatically.

"What! What!" The group chorused.

"They use," I whispered "Commoner-grade tea." The girls gasped. "Have you ladies ever had, British tea?" They all shook their heads. "Well, my twin and I use only the highest quality British teas." The girls all grouped towards our tables and Hikaru and Karou glared at us.

As we were all settling in and  pouring the tea, Kyoya came over and pulled me aside.

"What are you doing?! You and Hikarou are losing us money!" He said angrily.

"He started it!" I said childishly. Kyoya just looked at me. "Sorry."

"Now go serve your clients. These are the last clients before we go to Tamaki's couple day," He instructed. I nodded and went back to the tables, already chatting.
