After days of relentless dance practice, the annual ball had finally arrived. By the day of the ball, the grand hall had been decorated to its very best. Red velvet curtains towered from the high ceilings to the floor, loosely hung to the sides to reveal autumn's colors of trees outside the arched windows. The floors had been polished till they gleamed as bright as a mirror, marble tiles reflecting its crystal counterparts that adorned the ceiling. Chandeliers of ornate designs gave the ballroom soft light while indoor fountains gave a refreshing appeal to the whole area.

With the crowd wearing fancy dresses and smart suits, the whole place looked absolutely stunning, fit for people of the higher class.

"Do I HAVE to wear this?!" I heard Ren's voice coming from behind me. The host club had to wear extravagant outfits too since we were the hosts of the event. The Hitachiin twins sponsored our outfits so we had no say in what we could choose to wear. Even so, everybody looked pleased with their outfits, all except for Ren of course.

"I think you look pretty good in that though!"

"After all, we're the ones who chose that for you!" The twins who wore matching green outfits shared a high-five together. I had to agree with the twins though, Ren looked pretty cool in his outfit. He wore a high-collared coat of black and white, with gold trimmings at the ends. He wore black slacks and boots, a gold chain at his collar connecting his outfit. He looked like the earl of a noble family by just wearing that attire.

"Parties for rich people sure is something of a whole new level," Ren commented as he took a quick look around. Honey-brown eyes met his own emerald ones instantly, thus attracting attention quickly.

"Ren-chan, Ren-chan you look so cool~!"

"Honey-senpai, you too. Now then, where is that snack table..." Ren muttered as he trailed off from the group. Like me, he too was probably hungry, since we all took time getting ready in these fancy outfits. Right when Ren's eyes spotted the snack table, all the lights went off. That was the signal. Ren clicked his tongue.

"Just when I was about to eat too..."

"Welcome honorable guests to Ouran's annual ball!" Tamaki announced from beneath his solo spotlight, "May today's delights be tomorrow's sweet memories for the soul! Enjoy every single bit of this annual ball and dwell amongst those who seek love! Couples, make tonight the best time of your life while the single beautiful ladies are free to dance with any of the hosts! We will assist you any time you wish! Until then, enjoy!" The crowd which had a majority of females applauded Tamaki's weird speech with glee. Once his speech was over, part of the crowd of people began to make their way towards the hosts much to Ren's displeasure.

"Izumi-sama you look very fine tonight! Can I dance with you?!"

"Izumi-sama!"

"Izumi-sama please have one dance with me!"

Ren immediately turned on his charm as he bowed, "As you wish, my Lady." Instantly, shrieks echoed among the group gathered around Ren.

"Woah, Ren's really good at handling this." Haruhi commented as she ate her fatty tuna.

"This must be his playboy side coming out now, remember how he entertained those girls back at the host club? He'd treat them like kittens!" While talking, I had a thought in mind.

"So if Ren's in the Host Club now, what type is he?"

"Type?" I sighed, as usual Haruhi wouldn't pay attention to these sort of stuff. The fatty tuna slice she was eating right now wasn't even helping either.
