The Cool Type

A day in the life of the Fujiokas

Haruhi knocked on the door of  my room in their apartment. "What?" I asked groggily. "Can you come with me to the supermarket? I gotta get groceries." Haruhi said from outside the door. I got up and got dressed. It was the weekend and I was a bit tired, but I didn't mind walking with Haruhi to the supermarket. Besides, usually when Haruhi and I went, I also get something. I walked out dressed, my hair up in a ponytail as I looked at Haruhi. "You look exhausted." Haruhi commented "You deal with the same hosts I do, right?" I asked. "Fair enough." She said. Ranka must've worked late so it was just us today. We got to the supermarket and did the shopping we needed to do. "Wow Sales were perfect today." I said to her as we walked back grocery bag in hand." "Yep, nothing like hitting the supermarket on a Sunday morning." She said to me. I laughed. "Now all we have to do is clean and do some laundry then the rest of the day is free." "I cleaned yesterday." I interjected but stopped when we saw people crowded around what looked like a limousine. "What's going on?" I mumbled as I saw it. I was confused. 

    Someone opened the door, and out stepped..."Oh come on!" I whined. There they were...the host club...on our day OFF. "No doubt, my boyfriend set this up." I said with a roll of my eyes seeing him. I heard Tamaki try to explain the plan for when we showed up...or they came to our door, expecting us at the apartment. "Don't say anything that might offend Haruhi, Reina, or her father and cause them to ask us to leave." Tamaki explained. "Well it's too late for that!" I said. "Go away!" Haruhi barked as the boys turned to see us. My arms were crossed over my chest, but I walked up to my boyfriend first. "Explain." I said. He adjusted his glasses as I adjusted mine. "Tamaki had a stupid nightmare-" "Why am I not surprised. That's enough of an explanation for me." I said. "That pink dress is pretty cute!" The twins, Honey-senpai, and Tamaki said trying to complement the seething girl. "Shut up! Get the hell out of here!" Haruhi demanded. The land lady walked up to us. "Reina, Haruhi, excuse me girls but are you alright? Those young men are driving such fancy foreign cars, they're not yakuza are they?" she asked us. I looked at the boys standing in front of us. I can see where that question could arise. "No they're not." We answered politely. "Do you want me to call the police for you?" She asked concerned. "Miss Landlady I promise we're-" Tamaki cut me off by turning on his princely charm. "Please to meet you madam. My name's Suou. I'm one of Haruhi and Reina's friends." He said taking her hand. "Really?" She asked completely enchanted. I walked to Kyoya's side again. He did the same taking her hand. "I'm Reina's beloved." He said. She was enchanted by the two boys in front of her. "My goodness well aren't you just adorable! And it's good to see Reina dating someone! She's been quite lonely without her brother around." She said. I forgot Ranka explained the situation. 

        "And they've got her." We said as I shook my head. "We're just stopping by. We didn't mean to cause a scene." Tamaki apologized. I rolled my eyes impressed. "I'm sorry." He said. I walked up to him when the landlady was done swooning. "So does it work on most women?" I asked him. "Occasionally. Some women are just cold hearted and it doesn't work for me." He said. I looked at him, the look of pain flashed in his eyes...something I've never scene on his face before. "Tamaki?" I asked him as he zoned out. He looked at me. "I'm fine Reina." He said. I nodded pursing my lips as Haruhi finally caved into letting them into the apartment. "It's best not to question it darling." Kyoya said to me. "Tell me. What did he mean?" I asked. Kyoya briefly explained his situation. With his mother and his grandmother and his father. I frowned looking back at the blond I had slightly grown fond of. "He's masking it." I said. "With the way he acts, yes. I'm glad you picked it up. But don't dive too much in." He said. I nodded my head taking his hand and walking up the steps with him. "Okay here's the deal." Haruhi started. "I'm only giving you guys a quick peek; three seconds then you all go home, got it?" She directed. "Look I brought you two a gift, Haru-chan!" Honey-senpai said. He was too cute to deny, even I wasn't immune to his charms yet. I did the same thing when we first met. "I know how you two love cake!" He said. "He means himself." I whispered to her. "I know." She said. "There's both chocolate and strawberry." He said. She caved. "Fine...I guess I'll make some tea." She said. "Want to help?" She asked me. "Works for me." I said to her. We opened the door and immediately the boys started questioning it. "Hold on are we supposed to take our shoes off too?" Honey asked us as me and Haruhi shuffled into the kitchen.
