Ch. 10 Poor Honey Sempai

Elise's POV
* * * * * * * * * *
The next few days Koaru and I acted much closer, and at the same time, grew much closer. Koaru understood the way I was feeling, and told me about Skinny Love.  He was mischievous, but much more open minded than Hikaru. Because of all of this, it made it even easier to tell the two apart. According to Koaru, Hikaru has stopped speaking to him outside of Club hours.  "So you two don't really care about Black Magick?" Nekozawa pouted, overhearing our conversations. "Not really." Koaru shrugs and Nekozawa looked to me hopefully. "I-I'm not really sore I understand the concept of it all..." I stutter,  uncomfortable by his gaze. "Allow me to elighten you then! The world of darkness is made to look evil, but I, The king of darkness can show you it's kindness. "  He spun around and tripped on his cloak, causing both ot, and A wig to come off. "You're a blonde." I blurt out, pointing. "Gahhh! Don't remind me!" He  cried,  pulling his wig and cloak on again. The other members come over, "Master, it's time for the mid-day ritual."   They all giggle and pull us along  to the alter. They do the chants and then we go and sit back down. Suddenly the guy next to me passes me a pipe. "What?" I ask, confused. "You don't have to. " He shrugs, and I turn to Koaru,  who also shrugs. I bite my lip, "What will it do?" The guy laughs, "Whatever you need it to do. But you'll have to take more than that to get high. But, I suggest you try it once, then decide how you feel about it. It's up to you though." He hands it to me as he speaks. What would Kyoya  think?   No. What do I think? Screw it.  I nod to him and he lights it for me. Then I hand it to Koaru. He does it too. We pass it around, and I do it again, and then again. I do it until I feel really light, and I can't resist laughing. "I feel like someone is tickling me... Heh." I laugh, and so does Koaru, "Yeah, IT'S ME ."   He laughed so hard  that he fell off his chair, and we all  laugh. Suddenly, Mina, the only other girl in the group  sweeps Nekozawa Sempai off his feet bridal style. " Wahhhhh THE GODS ARE LIFTING  MEHHH." He screeches as Mina spins him around, cackling. The guy, who's name I learned was Ryan asks me if I want more, holding out a joint to me. "Hell yes I do." I say and take it gratefully. 

After lunch we return to the Host Club, still stoned, and actually quite hungry.  "KOARU! I missed you so much!" Hikaru tackles him to the found in "tears" which I learned earlier were just eye drops. Koaru hugs him back, nuzzling his face into Hikaru's neck. The girls all clapped and I laughed at how funny they looked. Kyoya grabs my wrist and I jump, not hearing  him approach. "Elise, can we talk?"

Kyoya's POV
* * * * * * * * * * *
Are you doing okay? You seem like your more comfortable here now. I just want to know how you're doing. "  I say, half lying.  I just wanted a reason to talk to her, to be close to her. She frowns, "That's all you wanted?" No. I want to say so much more... But I can't.  "Well, ah... why don't we just talk when we talk about this at home?" I say and she nods and skips off leaving me alone with my little black book. In the past few days, it's become full of drawings of her, laughing, playing the piano, even sleeping in class. I watch her walk over and sit with a moping Honey and rub his back, comforting him. Well at the very least, She's become comfortable  around the other hosts. Speaking of hosting, since we banned sweets fron the club room, we've  saved quite a lot, in only a day. I smirk a little, satisfied for the moment.

Third Person POV
* * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The air in the club to day was tense, all of the girls were gushing at the "bunny ears" on Hunny Sempai's head. Mean while the Lolita plotted ways to cure his sweet tooth, regardless of the cavity.  Earlier in the  day, Mori - Chan had confiscated his stash of sweets that he kept in his shool bag.

么他海哦对1 (Method #1)

"Ready Usa-chan? "  Honey Sempai  whispered to his bunny, and skipped over to the two girl guests whom Hunny Sempai  had deduced would be the easiest to woo. "Hi ladies? Watchya' doing? Having tea?" He gave Usa-chan a squeeze as he rocked back and forth innocently.  "Oh, Hi Sempai! Yes, we are having tea, would you care to join us?" The girls blush, motioning to the empty chair next to them. "What kind of tea?" Everything was going perfectly to Hunny's plan. " BlackBerry. " They smile. Here goes.  Hunny thinks, as he throws the pitch, "Ohh! You know what would go good with that? Something sweet! Yeah, like cake!" The girls wimper a little, as regret feels their eyes,  "Oh, yes, it would go well together..." "Great! So how about it? Hmm?" Hunny cheers and looks at them excitedly, thinking he'd succeeded.  The girls however, abruptly stood up and ran out calling behind, "We're so sorry Hunny!  But it's for your own good!" Leaving a crying Honey behind.

Honey Sempai tried many other times to fool both Morinozuka, and the others to give him sweets, to no avail. Drained of the energy he usually received from sweets, he made one last attempt, looking in the snack cupboard for even the smallest crumb of sugar. Finding none, he snapped. The only object in the cupboard, was the Host Club King's Stuffed bear. Hunny takes it out, glaring at it, and then slams it onto the ground forcefully. " GAHHHB! WHY DOES HE KEEP DOING THAT!?" Tamaki cried dramatically running over to check on his precious bear, as Hunny Sempai colapses, defeated.  " He finally cracked."  The twins say in unison, somehow still bored  with the situation. After Tamaki picked up the bear, he walked over to Hunny and poked him a couple of times.

Elise's POV
* * * * * * * * * * 
I'm not sure who's taking the cavity worse, Honey or Takashi. Haruhi noticed it too. The way Mori had been purposely harsh on Honey,  knowing he would crack and yell at him. He was making a punishment for himself.  Still better than the way I  would handle these things..  Suddenly Honey chomped onto Tamaki's hand causing him to screech and run around  desperately trying to shake him off. I glance at Mori who purses his lips and walks towards them. " Mitsukuni. Don't take your anger out on other people.  It's disgraceful." He says and Honey let's go. The room falls silent, other then Tamaki's wimpers. "Takahashi. YOU'RE SO MEAN TAKASHI! JUST A LITTLE ISN'T GOING TO HURT ME, BAKA! YOU NO WHAT, I HATE YOU TAKASHI! I NEVER WANNA SEE YOU AGAIN!" Mitsukuni  yells and runs out of the room. I poke Tamaki and signal him to go talk to Honey. Haruhi and I exchange a glance and turn to Mori. He stumbles toward a table for balance, but knocks it over, and falls down with it. Earlier Haruhi told me when Takashi was worried or upset, she noticed he became very clumsy. Guess she wasn't kidding.  "Mori is really down my this it seems." Hikaru says. "No, that's not it." Haruhi and I blurt out at the same time, and they all look over to us. Mori raises his head a little, listening too. "Mori Sempai... Did this on purpose. " Haruhi says and everyone looks confused besides Kyoya who looked neutral, but intrigued, and myself, who had already talked to Haruhi about it. "I'm right, aren't I?" She asks and he looks at her, "You are ." "I don't get it, Takashi purposely made Mitsukuni hate him? Why would he do that, when he himself cares deeply for Honey?"   Koaru asks. "Self punishment.  He blamed himself for Honey's cavity, so he made Honey angry with him to pay for it. Is that right?" Haruhi explains, then asks Mori if she had it right. "Yeah.. One night I forgot to make him brush his teeth. It's my fault. "  He hangs his head in shame. Tamaki steps in the room again with Honey, who's eyes were brimming with tears. "There you have it." Tamaki said, as if he had planned the whole thing. "Takahashi! I'M SO SAWWWYYY I'LL NEVER FORGET TO BRUSH AGAIN. I SWEAR!" Hunny cries and tackles Mori. Cutee. I look over to Koaru,  to see if he's ready yet and he looks back and nods. " Guys, there's something Elise and I have to tell you." He says and takes my hand in his. I glance at Kyoya, but couldn't identify the emotions he was showing, if he was.  Looking over to Hikaru however, he was staring intensely at our hands as if he could use the force and tear them apart. At least we know it's working for one of us. "Elise and I are together now. Not publicly of course, for the Host Club,  but between all of us, we are." He smiles and leans down and kisses my cheek. "Elise. Our driver is here to pick us up. Let's go." Kyoya says as if none of that had just happened and walked out.I said goodbye to the others, and ran out the door to catch up with Kyoya.

I hope this isn't for nothing.
