Ouran High School Host Club (ohshc x oc)

3- Beware the Physical Exam

Hikari makes it into the school grounds as she opens the gate to the main garden, welcomed by the boys of the host club. A large group of girls run by Hikari screaming as she just stands there in complete shock of what stands before her. Some kind of traditional Japanese setup.

"So, in which cup would my princess like her tea?" Tamaki asks as he gets to work straight away, "the Foley, the Worchester, or perhaps the Suzy Cooper Gardenia?".

"They're all so beautiful" one of the girls says as Hikari brings over the teacups after getting changed, "these are English antiques, aren't they? Which one do you like, Tamaki?".

"Which one? Well, none of these compare to my Princess" Tamaki says as he takes the girl's hand.

"Oh wow. I don't really know what to say" the girl says as she blushes.

"Pfft!" Hikari snickers as she walks away.

"You're saying you've never been to Covent Garden?" Kaoru asks as he sits down next to one of the girls sat down at one of the tables.

"No. All of our antiques are from Portobello Roe" the girl says as she looks at him.

"I think you'd like Covent Garden. Most of our Victorian pieces are from there" Hikaru says as he takes a seat too.

Kaoru goes to put a cup of tea on the table when he knocks it onto his hand.

"Kaoru!" Hikaru says as he turns to look at his brother, kissing his burnt finger, "honestly, Kaoru. You have to be more careful. From now on, keep you eyes on me only, okay?".

"Yes, Hikaru" Kaoru says as he looks at Hikaru.

"Oh, I can't take this" one of the girls says as she looks away.

"You can't look away. You have to watch this. It could be a once in a lifetime opportunity and we'd never know it" the other girl says as she looks at the girl.

"You're absolutely right" Kyoya says as he comes over, "all beauty is fleeting. Just take a look at these cherry blossoms. You'll never be able to see them this vibrant again. That's why I've compiled collections of photos in these photobooks to capture to beauty of each passing day. Coincidently, I've also compiled photobooks of the other members as well. And if you ladies are interested in collecting all four of them, I'll discount the full set for them".

"I'll take them!" one of the girls says as she stands up.

"Me too!" the other girl says as she puts her hand up.

"Well, now we know how the club makes extra money" the twins say as they look at Kyoya.

"But I have to wonder" Hikaru says as he looks at Kaoru.

"When did he take pictures of us" Kaoru says as he looks at Hikaru.

Haruhi watches as she sits with Mori and Honey, Honey making the girls some tea the traditional way.

"Mitsukuni. You overdid it" Mori says in Honey's ear.

"He told him!" Haruhi says in shock.

Honey lifts the stirrer from the bowl in his lap as he sees there's only a small amount of tea left.

"Honey, I'll take it!" Hikari says as she comes over, noticing Honey becoming upset, "it looks so yummy".

Hikari kneels down as she takes the bowl and drinks it.

"It might not be a lot, but it tastes nice, at least" Hikari says with a smile, "you can always make it again".
