Yukina POV

The ball was about to begin, I was serving guests of course, I still haven't forgotten about my club duties.

As I was serving, more and more guests just arrived. This was going to be a huge party, I can tell.

The other members of the Host Club were doing their jobs as well, serenading the ladies, as always.

At the end of the ball, Tamaki-senpai promised me something.

~Flashback~

"Yukina, I know you think that this is all weird or new to you. But, if you do your best, you can have all the cake you want."

I was immediately motivated to do my best by his promise.

~End of Flashback~

The lights were closing, and the spotlight went to the center, where Tamaki-senpai was standing at with a mic, ready to speak.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you, for attending this grand ball. Please feel free, to do whatever you want. Before the ball starts, I making an announcement. It's a masquerade ball!" The people were making a fuss. "Do not panic I have prepared masks for absolutely everyone. But nearing at the end there will be a dance for the finale. That is all, enjoy!"

As he finished his so called speech. The ladies were screaming in happiness, very loudly.

Then, men, in suits and ties were giving people random masks. I took one, it was, very red. I looked at it in mere amazement because the color was just so, mesmerising. While wearing it, all the other guests were already wearing theirs.

I couldn't recognise anyone. But, I did recognise the hosts and smiled.

"I see the ladies are very inlove with senpai." I said. "What can you do about it." Someone said while sighing.

"Haruhi-san?" I suggested it was her. Her features and voice are very alike. "Sugoi, you knew it was me." Haruhi-san smiled.

I went over to the others and asked "How is everyone?"

"We're okay, Yukina, you look lovely." Kyoya-senpai complimented. I said thank you and nodded. "Yuki-chaaaaan! You look pretty tonight!" Honey-senpai yelled. I giggled and said thanks.

Hikaru POV

..Woah... Yukina is just.. stunning. She's seriously beautiful. I kept staring hoping my eyes couldn't be seen behind this mask.

She walks to us. Kaoru says "Yo Yukina! Do you know who is who?"

She pointed at me, "Hikaru."

"Well done." Kaoru finishes, with a giggle. "Anyway, besides Haruhi, how'd you know who was who?"

"You may seem very identical, always do everything together and hard to tell apart. But your personalities, habits and features aren't that identical." Yukina ends with a smile.

I'm glad. I'm so glad. She knows each and everyone of us. She hasn't been with us for a year, yet, it's like she's known us for ages.

Yukina POV

I walked from the host club and went for the dessert table. "The cakes are just simply mouth watering." I say to myself.

The lights closed. It was dark but not completely dark. It's enough for us to see.

Huh?

Even though the guests are wearing masks, I can't seem to see their faces clearly. So basically, I can't tell who they are.

Music starts to play, guests are in search of partners, I just, stood there while everyone had someone to dance with.

(A/N: There is a YouTube video on the media, play it on this part.)

What am I thinking, I can't even dance.

Minutes later, someone I couldn't even recognize came to me and asked "May I have this dance?" Unsure of what to do. I just accepted.

He took my hand and gracefully lured me to where people were dancing.

"Ano, may I ask who are you?" I suggested. "I may be an acquaintance of yours perhaps?" Teasing me. Leaving me clueless of who he is.

He was a graceful dancer, unlike me.

"I'm sorry once again." I said after constantly stepping on his foot. "It's okay." He said, smiling.

"I may not know who you are but thank you for dancing with me, I must go now." I say to him sincerely. He nods, leaving too.

'Who are you?' I think to myself the possibilities of his identity. But, I guess that's the point of this masquerade ball. I sighed.

Hikaru POV

Where's Yukina? I search for her thinking I could have the chance to dance with her. Seriously where is sh-

Oh. There she is.

I go to where she is. "Can I have this dance?" I nervously ask. She nods, which makes this a probably good situation.

I may not see her face as she dances with me, but she's still beautiful, her face isn't clear but her eyes, are looking straight through me.

*Chu*

Wait, what?

Yukina POV

W-w-what.. what just happened? Did he? Kiss.. me? T-t-that was my.. First kiss.

I kind of stopped dancing and slowly went backwards. I...I..

"Yukina wait, let me explain." Hikaru said. "Umm, you can explain later, I have to go." I replied and went to the girls bathroom.

I remove the mask that is on my face and look at the mirror. I place a hand on my lips and just stared, thinking why would Hikaru would do that.

Many quite weird things has happened today. I wore a dress, the ball was a masquerade one after all, a random gentleman dances with me and now this?

"What's going on today?"
