Akiko's pov

As I walked out of my dimly lit bedroom (at 6 in the morning) I only had two things on my mind: my new school, and a song that's been stuck in my head for days. I hummed loudly on my way to my bathroom. I put on my new school uniform, put in my contacts and ran downstairs. I checked myself in the mirror before leaving. I put in my red contacts this morning, I wanted to put in pink ones but I guess not...

My driver, leaning on the white car of his choice, beaconed me to the car. We got in and sped away to the school. He dropped me off at the big building and handed me my stuff.

The school had crowds of students all meeting up with each other after summer break. I maneuvered around them and went to the office.

"Are you Akiko?" One of the secretaries said to me.

I nodded my head.

She handed me a packet and shooed me away. I looked at the map of the school. I walked up a few flights of stairs looking for my homeroom. I walked through the halls. Libraries, music rooms, dance rooms, any other extravagant learning rooms.

Music room #3. I saw the room's sign. "I'm lost" I mumbled to myself. I decided to go into the room and ask for directions, the map didn't help at all.

Rose petals fluttered around me as I walked into the large room.

"Welcome, to the host club!" A group of boys in the middle of the room greeted me in unison. Is this a cult or something?

"Umm..." My mind went blank. "I-"

"We've been visited by a new guest." One said. "And what is you're name?" He asked me.

"Uhh..." I slowly backed away. "A-Akiko"

"Well then, Akiko, who would you like to visit today?" He asked in a smooth voice.

I backed away even more "wait... What?"

He advanced on me "what type of guy are you into?" He asked softly.

"I'm not," I kept backing away. "Into any-"

"OH MY, where have our manners gone to?" He said cutting me off. "My name is Tamaki!"

The one with glasses spoke. "I'm Kyoya."

The small one with brown hair spoke next. "I'm Haruhi"

"We're Kaoru" said one of the gingers.

"And Hikaru" said Kaodu's twin.

"Okay... That's great but I just need help-" I begin to speak.

"Finding love!" Tamaki interrupted me.

I sighed "no, finding my-"

"Passion?" Kyoya blurted out.

"No, my homeroom!" I yelled.

They all stared at me.

"Oh..." Said Hikaru.

"We just thought..." Said Kaoru.

"So your into girls?" Kyoya asked.

I backed away "I guess"

"Okay then!" Tamaki smiled. The twins walked towards me. W-what are they doing? They grabbed me by my arms and took me into a back room.

"Name?" Kaoru asked holding a paper.

"...Akiko"

"Age?"

"14"

"Grade?"

"... Why are you asking me questions?" I tried to struggle out of Hikaru's grasp. He pulled me closer to his body. My face turned red as I felt his torso on my back.

"Just some things we want to know... For the club." Kaoru said softly. "Grade?"

"Wait I'm joining this... Club?

"Yep. Grade?"

"Tenth."

"Good personality traits."

What?

"Umm... I'm nice?"

"Is that it? We'll just have to evaluate you."

"Okay, your in the club" Hikaru whispered into my ear, giving me chills.

"C-can you let go of me?" I asked quietly, looking up into his eyes.

"Woah... Your eyes are red!" He smiled, resting his chin on my white hair.

I sighed. "They're just contacts. I have a bunch of colors."

Hikaru finally let me go.

I picked up my bag and quickly ran to my class.

Hikaru's pov

I smiled at Akiko as he ran to class. He was so small and fragile.

"Dude..." Kaoru looked at me. "You like him, don't you?"

I blushed "n-no!"

"Of course you do." He nudged me with his elbow.

I rolled my eyes "c'mon! The guests are gonna be arriving soon."

I ran to the others and got into position. "Welcome, to the host club." We all said in unison...
