What Binds Us (OHSHC fan-fic)

Chapter Six---Dance Practice and Diabolical Planning

The song is Breath of Life by Florence and the Machine. It's the song Miku creates in this chapter. I would like to think Miku got the school band together to record this song, along with the school choir to be the backgorund...I have an active imagination. The picture of her talking to her new fanboys.

It was the next day and I was dreading school. The second Haruhi and I walked into the halls, boys and girls watched my every move. I glanced to the side, seeing many of the boys had light blushes and even some of the girls...weird. I shuffled closer to Haruhi and clung ot her arm, above all things I didn't like was staring.. I absolutely hated being stared at...it wasn't a fear, it was just incomfortable

Me and my syblling were early for class, so when we sat down, a crowd gathered around us. A few boys stood in front of my desk, each seemed curious or skeptical. One of the boys, an average-looking brunette, decided to speak up,"So, I heard you were going to be a hostess for the Host Club. Is it true?"

I locked our eyes together and nodded,"Yes, I am."

The brunette made an odd face,"I admit that you're really pretty, but you don't seem the type to get mixed in with the Host Club."

I decided to switch on my hostess charm by letting a light blush appear and averting my eyes,"I know I don't look like much, but I really thought I could fit in with the other hosts. I guess that I was wrong. I'll never fit in anywhere here," I let my eyes tear a bit.

The brunette instantly started panicing when the other boys glared at him,"I-I am sorry! I didn't mean to sound so mean!"

I sniffled softly,"So, you didn't mean to hurt my feelings?"

His brown eyes widened and a blush appeared,"No, I would never want to hurt your feelings."

"Really?" My large eyes glanced up shyly.

He grinned," Yeah! Who'd wanna hurt your feelings? You're adorable!"

I let my eyes seem hopeful as I looked at the other boys,"Am I really adorable?"

They all had dark blushes as they answered in unison,"YES!!!"

I giggled good-naturedly,"You boys are so sweet! I hope you all come to see me. I'd love to get to know you."

They all sighed dreamily and wandered to their seats drunkenly.

The twins had come in the classroom a little after Haruhi and I and watched me do my thing,"You're good."

I grinned,"Mmmhmmm!"

Today, Host Club activities were canceled due to the fact that me and Haruhi needed to learn to waltz. Kanako came anyway, so she could help Haruhi and I sat cross-legged on the windowsill beside "Daddy", bored.

"Miku," Kyouya called calmly,"Aren't you going to dance?"

I quirked my mouth as I pretended to ponder the question,"I don't really want to, so no, I don't think I will."

The vice-president smirked,"You have to learn. You're attending the party as well, and if you don't learn to dance, I'll add more to Haruhi's debt."

My expression darkened,"Damn you."

Kyouya shrugged," Hikaru, can you teach Miku?"

Before Hikaru had the chance to respond, Hunni interrupted,"But we wanted to dance with Mi-chan!"

"You're too short, Hunni-sempai," Hikaru explained.

"But Takashi isn't," the little blonde stated,"He wants to dance with Miku too, right Takashi?"
