Ouran Host Club Hostess (DISCONTINUED)

Chocolate Induced Affection

My uncle has weird ideas of what fun is. In this case, he meant that we should pretty much stalk Haruhi all the way to the market. We were all currently hiding a few meters away from her behind one of the streetlight poles.

"In the end, we still followed her anyway," the twins said.

Kyouya glanced at my uncle. "Is this the fun thing you mentioned earlier?" He asked.

"This is the stalking game, Kyouya-kun," my uncle nodded from behind his scarf and black sunglasses. Yep, he had gone the whole hog, new clothes, a scarf and dark shades. Did he not understand that the best spies hid themselves in plain sight?

I facepalmed. I wondered how Haruhi hadn't seen us yet. I mean, half the street was gazing at us, and a few were pointing. It was kind of hard to miss the Host Club. They were all so handsome in their own way that they couldn't fail to attract attention wherever they went.

I suppose that's the real reason uncle Ryouji wanted them to come, I glared at my uncle's back when he straightened and removed his sunglasses. "Rather than go alone," he said. "I just wanted to drag around a bunch of handsome men with me!" He said. I sweatdropped. I was right after all. Well, I could certainly see the attraction.

We managed to sneak into the supermarket without being seen by Haruhi, which was a miracle in itself as no one in the Host Club really knew how to sneak. That, or they didn't care. I think it was a bit of both. Mori and Honey wandered off in the direction of the ice cream and candy aisle, Kyouya disappeared somewhere, and then the twins dragged me away towards the shelves of instant coffee.

"Whoa!" Hikaru was picking containers of coffee of the shelves and staring at them with surprise. "There are so many flavours here!"

"Here's one we haven't tried before!" Kaoru grabbed one, the dark chocolate flavoured one. "Hey, Kyoko," he showed it to me. "Is it any good?"

The cover of the coffee container was light brown, lighter than the chocolate-infused powder inside it. I shrugged and folded my arms over my chest. "I don't know," I told them. "I've never been much of a coffee person. It's too bitter for me. I like hot chocolate though."

"Hmm?" Hikaru cocked his head to the side. "You like sweet things, don't you?" He asked me. "Like sweets and chocolates?" I nodded. "What kind of chocolate do you like?"

"Either milk or white," I told them. "But white chocolate is expensive, and really hard to find around here." Whenever I went into sweet shops, they never had any. I suppose it's because it's more expensive than ordinary milk chocolate. "Anyway," I stared at the coffee in their hands. "Are you guys going to buy that?" They nodded. "Then do you want me to get a basket?"

"Wow, those guys over there are really cute!"

I blinked, and leaned a little to the side so I could see who was speaking. There were three girls hanging around a few feet away from us. Even though they looked to be about my age, they were dressed to look much older. They were staring at the twins, and they had their hands over their mouths, as though they were trying to disguise the fact that they were speaking.

"Are they twins?"

"They look so cool!" Then the one that spoke must have noticed me. "Ah, who's that? Do you think that's their sister?"

"No way, she doesn't look at all like them!"

"Then, do you think she might be dating one of them?" I flushed and looked away. The twins had to be hearing this, but neither of them was acting as though anything was amiss. Dating one of them, huh? I wonder what that would be like...it would probably be the same as now, only with more kisses. I went bright red at my line of thought.
