I woke up the next morning earlier than I had asked my maid to wake me. I got out of bed then placed Yuki back on my bed. I love the bear too much to leave it on the floor. With a yawn I walked over to my closet then walked inside of the large closet. "What should I wear today?" I asked myself sleepily. I grabbed a pair of white skinny jeans and a regular blue T-shirt. I changed into my clothes for the day then grabbed my phone before heading to the kitchen.
"Riku, what's for breakfast?" I asked as I stepped into the kitchen. Riku was at the stove making me eggs with pancakes and plenty more. It makes me wonder how often this house of mine even gets food shipments. I'm never here and my personal maid gets dragged back and forth by me. "I'm making you your favorite. Pancakes, eggs, bacon and a nice bowl of chopped strawberries as well." Riku said, bringing me back from my own thoughts. "Thank you!" I said happily before she went back to cooking my breakfast.
"Kazumi, your parents are returning back home and they expect you to look the way you did before they left," she began saying. I simply nodded. "How're you going to fix your hair?" She finally asked. "Well, I can go buy a wig and wear it. They won't suspect a thing that way. Especially my father." I responded with before making my way back to my room to eat.
Several moments later Riku came in with my breakfast then scurried off to go about cleaning the rest of my "small" house. I ate my breakfast while watching some old cartoons that I grew up with. Funny how I still laugh at them now.
~Later that day a quarter to noon~
I gave my driver Haruhi's address and he drove me to his home rather quickly. I got out and made my way up the door number he had given me. I knocked on it a few times before sticking my hands back into my pockets. I wonder how he'd dress for a casual day out. Soon after Haruhi answered the door, but he was wearing a dress. I ignored it for a few moments. "Well, let's get going. My drivers waiting for us to go." I said with a smile. We walked together in silence down to my limo and I helped her get into the back with me. "So, you're a girl?" I asked finally. She nodded. "I guess the rest of the guys did a pretty good job of not informing you of anything." She said with a little giggle. Now I know why Tamaki found her so cute. We chatted the rest of the way there and I explained to her what my family business was, along with the beef between the Otori's, Hitachiin's, and my family.
When we arrived at the market it looked like a lot of fun. Especially for a commoners market! "Where do you want to start?" I asked Haruhi. "How about we grab some ice cream?" She suggested and I nodded. "Yeah, that sounds great!" I cheered. For some odd reason I felt like I was being watched. We walked together to the ice cream shop then got small scoops of ice cream. We walked back outside then got some more sweets. "Gee, you sure do like sweets Kazumi!" Haruhi said with another one of her cute smiles. I shrugged, "It was the only way my family got me to be good." I joked.
After a couple of hours of shopping we went to a cafe to grab some tea. The more time I spent with her that day, the more I couldn't stop looking into her beautiful chocolate eyes. She noticed while we were waiting for our tea to come that I was staring at her. "I--Uh, sorry." I said with a small smile. "It's okay." She said with her sweet voice. Soon after our drinks came and I focused on drinking it slowly instead of staring at Haruhi. I felt her eyes on me though, maybe she was doing it too? I looked up slowly and she looked away. Maybe she was into me too. "Hey, Haruhi. I have a secret too." I said, looking straight at her. "I'm a girl too." I simply said. She looked a little shocked, but it washed away quickly. "You have hidden it pretty well." She commented. "I think I'll keep it that way for the rest of the club a little bit longer. For now I'd like to keep it this way." I said with a small nod. "We should hang out again sometime. Next time I'll make dinner for you at my house." She said with a sincere smile. "Thanks, I'd love to." I responded, once again getting lost in her eyes. I left the bill on the table then walked out with Haruhi. I still felt like I was being watched, not by her but someone else. I shrugged it off and took Haruhi back home.
I think I love her.
Haruhi and I spent some time at her house since I had a few hours to kill before going to Tamaki's for the sleepover. We got pretty close in only a few hours. "So, Kazumi, what are your parents like?" She asked. "Well they're pretty care free and nice, but when I do something they can become the worst. Like they'll stop the maple syrup shipments I get at my own house. And when I'm grounded they send me there on my own." I answered. I guess to her none of that sounded too bad at all, but I can't live without my maple syrup to use on my breakfast! "Ah, you mentioned that they've been away for awhile now, right? Won't they be mad about your hairstyle change?" Looks like we've spent a lot of time talking about me.
"Yeah, they'll get pretty pissed if they find out. I had my maid order a wig that has my natural colors earlier today." I answered with a sheepish smile. Honestly I don't like to lie to my parents, but for now I'll have to. She nodded, "That'll last you awhile until your hair grows back on it's own." I looked at my phone quickly then noticed that it was already 7:30, time to leave for Tamaki's sleepover. "Haruhi, I gotta head out now. Don't want to be late for this since I'm a new host and all." I said quickly getting up and waving to her. I put my shoes on then opened the door. "See you at school, Kazumi." She said waving back at me when I left and closed the door.
~At the Suoh Main Mansion~
The doors opened to me and it looked quite a lot like other mansions I've been to out here in Japan. Large with a lot of maids and butlers offering their service to you as well. I handed my bag and shoes to one of them, smiling. Not long after I had arrived did Tamaki show up flanked by Kyoya, Hani and Mori. Looks like the twins had yet to arrive. "Welcome, Kazumi!" Tamaki said with his usual bright smile. "Thank you for inviting me, senpai." I said with a small bow. "Well, follow us. It's dinner time. The twin's are arriving just now too." He said while walking to the said dining room. I caught up to them and took a seat near where the twins would be sitting when they came into the room as well. "Hey everyone!" The duo said in sync. I guess that never gets old for them.
I sat quietly in my seat while the twins sat on each side of me. The food had been served shortly after, the other hosts were chatting except for Mori and I. For a few minutes I played with my food, stabbing the potatoes with my fork quietly, which earned me stares from the twins. "What?" I questioned, glancing at both of them. "You haven't eaten a thing yet." Hikaru pointed out. "Are you thinking about someone~?" Kaoru asked. At that I shook my head and lifted the fork to my mouth when Tamaki decided to join the conversation. "I heard that you and Haruhi hung out today." He said. Okay, it's official this night is going to last forever. I nodded and ate as fast as I could.
After being asked so many questions, I was dead tired. "I'm gonna go change. I'll be right back." I said and took my pajamas out of my bag along with my toothbrush. "Alright, don't take too long." Hikaru called when I left the room to sit in the bathroom. I closed the door and got changed. I stared at myself in the mirror for a few minutes. I started thinking about Haruhi, she's definitely not the first one I've loved. This one feels so real compared to the random short sparks I've felt. There was a knock at the door. "Hey, Kazumi, you okay?" Tamaki asked from the other side of the door. "Yes, I'm fine. I'm just thinking about a few things is all." I said while opening the door. Tamaki looked a bit relieved. I guess he does worry about his new hosts as well. "Well we're about to start playing some games so let's head back." He said quickly while dragging me back with him to his large bedroom. Heck, it beat mine by quite a lot as well.
Suddenly this night has gotten a lot better. No more questions about who I like. I just have to hope my gender isn't revealed anytime soon.
