Narrator

All the hosts were particularly emotional today. Each had tears almost dripping out their eyes as they talked to their customers. Suddenly they were interrupted by loud squeals, making their tears disappear. It was all coming from the corner of the room where Jax sat upside down on a chair, his feet propped up against the wall. His hair fell in tufts and were pulled down by gravity, his shirt lifted up slightly to show skin, and his eyes were...boredly focused on a magazine he held.

"What are you guys squealing about now?" Jax asked, too annoyed to realize his shirt was slightly revealing more and more of his stomach. "Jeez, not even a official host yet and I already have all these 'customers'." he scoffs. Finally noticing his shirt, he smirks. Flipping forward, he lands on his feet and runs his hands through  his hair. "Tch, admiring I see." he begins. "I know its hard to, but try and control yourselves." he says with a wink, tipping a girl's chin upward. "Look at me with those eyes and I'll find it hard to control myself." he whispers right in to the girl's ear and everyone begins to squeal and faint in reply. "That'll be all for today. I'll see you ladies tomorrow." Jax ends with a affectionate ruffle of the hair to a few girls.

"Of course, Jax-kun!" they all chorus and scurry off. Making his way towards Kyoya, he plops down beside him while eyeing each of the hosts' kimonos. Kyoya was talking to Haruhi, so he hadn't noticed Jax yet.

"Kyoya-sama! You're too much in that kimono!" one girl gushed.

"Are there any new photo collections of the hosts?" another asked.

"Unfortunately, nothing is scheduled at present." Kyoya answers with a fake smile.

"The club makes most of its money by promotional items, right?" Hikaru and Kaoru ask. Kyoya answers and explains to them while Jax listened boredly. Then Hani decided to appear crying to Haruhi about how he lost one of his sandals. Jax decided to ignore it, since Hani was obviously addressing Haruhi and not himself.

"So, Kyoya." Jax begins.

"Yes?" Kyoya answers.

"Why don't you get any customers? You're a handsome dude besides the creepy stalking." Jax shrugs. "Not a bad bod either and you're a smart, so...?" he continued.

"Well, I do get some customers but I'm rather busy keeping up with the financial issues to be fulltime." Kyoya explains as he writes down on a piece of scroll with ink and a paintbrush. I eye Haruhi holding a bottle of fake tears.

"No wonder everyone was so teary today." Jax thought to himself. He then continued with his conversation with Kyoya and getting surprisingly close to him as a friend. Who knew they had more in common then they thought? Suddenly, their intriguing conversation is interrupted.

"No! Don't touch me, you phony!" a girl's voice rings out, all through out the room. Quickly, Kyoya and Jax make their way to the rest of the hosts that watched Tamaki get slapped.

"I'm...a phony?" Tamaki asks, his hand over his face.

"Yes! I can't believe you're the Prince figure in this club! The Prince character doesn't go around spreading his love so readily! How can you be so stupid?! Its almost as if your a dimwitted narcissist!" the girl continued to yell.

"Bingo." Jax says as Tamaki is being shot with word arrows such as incompetent, mediocre, and the pits. Jax doesn't know who this girl was but oddly liked her.

"By any chance...are you-" Kyoya began as he put a hand to his chin but was interrupted by the girl running towards him with tears in her eyes.n

"Kyoya-sama!" she yelled and suddenly embraced him. "I've wanted to meet you. My own prince." she sighed as she continued to embrace him, much to his discomfort.

"Fiancee?" Hikaru questions.

"Kyoya-sempai's?" Kaoru asks.

"Yes! My name is Hoshakuji Renge. I will be transferring to 1st year, class A tomorrow. " she introduces herself.

"Look, he's mad." Hikaru says, talking about Tamaki.

"That's because Mommy was hiding something from Daddy." Kaoru states.

"It is, indeed, love at first sight!" Renge gushes, beginning to annoy Jax. "The way you were adoring those flowers in the back courtyard even though no one was looking! And the way you kindly reached out to that injured little kitty." Renge gushed.

"Who are you talking about." Hikaru and Kaoru deadpan.

"Could you have the wrong person?" Haruhi asks and is rudely answered by Renge.

"No! You can't fool these eyes! He is someone who is kind to everyone, and yet still doesn't seem to get noticed by anyone. He loves solitude but is actually lonesome. The one who looks just like the star of the currently popular love simulation game 'Ukidoki Memorial' Ichijo Miyabi-kun, and that's you!" she points at Kyoya. Hikaru, Kaoru, and Tamaki begin to yell that she's an otaku while Mori quietly ponders it.

"Look, girlie, I don't know who you think you are but you obviously don't know our Kyoya. Be rude to Haruhi again and you'll regret it." Jax scoffs with a role of his eyes as he lightly leans on Haruhi.

"Wahh, you're handsome...but no I must stay loyal to my fiancee!" Renge ignores what Jax says while holding her hand over her eyes.

"I see now. You're infatuated with a character. You're projecting the character infatuation on to me, going so far to delude yourself that we're engaged. This Miyabi-kun character probably wears glasses too, right?" Kyoya says and pushes up his glasses.

"Whoa, deluded, you say? Then that story about her being your fiancee..." Tamaki says.

"I don't remember ever acknowledging that. For one thing, I've never even met her before today." Kyoya states.

"Kyoya-sama, I understand that you administer everything about this club." Renge says.

"That's right, Kyo-Chan is our director." Hani nods.

"The director? That's perfect! I've always dreamed about being the drawing card for someone's business." Renge begins to daydream.

"We don't need one. We're a host club after all." Hikaru and Kaoru say.

"I've made up my mind! I'm going to be this host club's manager!" Renge announces, obviously not listening.

"Jeez, if I was Jakki right now, I would knock her back to where she came from." Jax thinks to himself.
