Roses for who?

Chapter III

It has been a few hours and me and Haruhi are just getting back from the grocery store

"May I speak with you tamaki?"
"Hm?" "I recently heard that the club adopted a little kitten without much known pedigree and the flea that won't leave it, if you aren't careful they'll infest the club." "Now I wouldn't call them that- ah! Speak of the devil and they shall appear! Thank you both for doing the shopping little piglets~"
I just felt uneasy with him calling us piglets 'is he making a joke about our weight? Haru isn't chubby, she's lean and adorable'
"Did you get everything on our list?"
"What? Piglet?" Haru murmured to me, equally confused
"We'll, we tried, you see- but we couldn't really find-" I tried to explain before getting rudely interrupted
"Hey, wait a minute. What is this?"tamaki asked seeming confused by the small cubed container of coffee. "What do you mean?" I asked
"It's just what it looks like, it's coffee" Haru deadpanned.
"I've never seen this brand before. Is this the kind that's already ground?"
"What do you mean? It's instant coffee tamaki-senpai" I tried to explain. "It's instant?" The two girls across from tamaki seemed to question. "Of course! It's for your convenience my lady, so they can spend even more time with you lovely ladies! All you have to do is add hot water and stir, add sugar and crème to your hearts content" I beamed at them, making them blush. Tamaki seemed to realize what it was finally after hearing me explain it. "I didn't know there was such a thing" a group of girls gathered and muttered around our table. "Commoners are pretty smart." Kyoya spoke after sneaking into the group, the twins alongside him along with many more girls "one hundred grams for three hundred yen. That's a lot less than we normally pay."the twins chimed in. "We'll go back and get something else" I tried to ease the situation, not knowing if we somehow offended them. "Yeah, excuse us for not buying the expensive coffee." Haruhi bluntly stated. I went to reach for the package as tamaki threw his hand up, almost hitting me in the face. "No. I'll drink it." Tamaki declared. The others seemed to be impressed as their mouths gaped open a bit and they started to applaud him. "Alright you two. Get over here and make some of this commors coffee!" Tamaki ordered us. Haru looked annoyed while I went to go get some hot water. When I got back Haru had just put the coffee into the cups and I walked over and gently poured the water over the coffee, making sure not to overfill. Haruhi grabbed the tray and a few of the girls grabbed it but was wary to try it, I understand trying new things can be difficult but I think they are just being a tad too cautious. "Let the tasting begin!" Tamaki exclaimed. That was when they started voicing their worries. "If it would make you all more comfortable I'd be happy to bring some cream and sugar!"I tried to ease their worries but they weren't budging. "What if I let you drink it from my mouth?" Tamaki asked a girl as he dipped her at her hips, gently cradling her head with the other hand. "We'll, then I would drink it.." she answered obviously flustered as the other girls swooned. "This is ridiculous" Haruhi muttered to me. "I have to agree" I whispered back to her. Me and Haruhi were handing out refreshments and noticed the girls squealing over the twins act. I don't understand it myself. "sorry we're running late... Takeshi had a kendo meeting and I fell asleep" honey trailed off, rubbing his eyes as of to chase off the sleep still lingering behind them. He was clinging to Mori like an adorable baby koala. "I'm still not completely awake..." he said as Mori gently sat him down on the couches with his guests, the girls started squealing and I just felt bad for poor honey. "Is that boy really a third year student?" Haruhi questioned to herself. "Honey-senpai may seem young and childish, but he is a prodigy" Kyoya said calmly walking towards Haruhi and stopping just behind her. "And then there's Mori-senpai with his strong and silent disposition." I added walking towards the group. "Haru-chan!" Honey yelled jumping at Haruhi while swinging them both around while dangling off her arm. He landed softly before asking "hey Haru-Chan, do you want to go have some cake with me?" Honey sweetly asked. "Thanks... but I don't really like... cake" Haruhi said while trying to calm her dizziness. "Then how would you like to hold my bunny Usa-Chan?" He questioned again. "I'm not into bunnies..." she trailed finally starting to get her bearings. "Are you saying you don't like Usa-Chan?" Honey pouted, and it almost made me feel bad till I looked back at Haruhi, noticing the look in her eyes.as her features soften and a fond smile grew on her face. "I guess he is kinda cute, huh?" She said while lightly blushing at the adorable stuffed bunny. Something seemed to click in honeys eyes when she said that as a blush grew on his face before handing over his bunny and leaping onto his guests laps and rolling around. I looked Kyoya in the eyes before holding out my hand "pay up Ootori~" I teased in a playful tone. He smirked and I could have sworn I saw the tiniest bit of pink flood to his ears, handing over the better amount. "You we're right indeed, my lady" he teased back before focusing back on Haruhi who was now gently holding the bunny. " the club is designed to where each host meets the needs and preferences of our guests, just so you know Tamaki is number 1 atriums here, his request rate is 70%" he informed. "What is this world coming to?" Haruhi questioned. "Come on Haru, it's not the worst club to be in it makes a lot of people who are involved happy, that must count for something" I added hoping to help her see it from a different point of view. "I suppose you're right..." Haruhi reluctantly admitted. "Also in order for you to pay off your eight million yen debt with us you will act as the Ouran host clubs dogs until you both graduate. I'm sorry I mean our errand runners"Kyoya said with a hint of lilt to his tone but still with his cold persona. "Wait dogs? What do you mean both?" Haruhi questioned as I stared at her sadly. " I volunteered to help you with your debt. Since you wouldn't let me pay for it, I didn't want you going through this alone, plus it should help pay it off faster, right Haru?" I said w her of my decision and why. "What?!? Why would you do that?!? You're family-" she tried to argue "Haruhi..." I said gently putting a hand on her shoulder and smoothing down the hair that went askew from when honey swung her "You are my family." I beamed at her and as I said that I saw her face turn red and her clutch the bunny more.
