09 : Something is wrong with Hani

Haruhi

After Min had left the room about a minute ago, Hani-senpai silently sat on the couch. No laughter, no 'candies please' and no fuss about Usa-chan. 

He just sat on the couch where he slept on, not muttering or saying a single word. Now what happened next was beyond creepy... 

Hani-senpai puts on his glasses and started to read a book. As usual, the boys all went back to doing their usual stuff except Hani-senpai that is. 

" Mori-senpai, is anything wrong with Hani-senpai?" I asked. 

" He only does this when he's thinking about something or when he's being serious. " Mori-senpai stated.

What could he Hani-senpai be thinking about? I recall the past few minuted of him when he was still all cheery until...That's it! 

Hani-senpai was still all bubbly until he hugged Min. It can't be that he has realized that he is a she ...

As I sat next to a couch near Kyouya, he turns to me. " Seems like Hani-senpai has noticed that little secret. "

As in Min's secret? " What secret?" I casually asked.

" Haruhi, don't feign innocent." he then whispered into my ears." You and I both know that the he is a she." 

I looked at him with my eyes wide. " How do you know?" I then realized. It's Kyouya we are talking about, he has his ways of finding out.

" I have my ways just in case you have not noticed." he said before going back to looking at the laptop screen.

See, I knew that he'd say that!

I sighed. " What do we do about it?" 

" We simply deny it if he asks us, now stop slacking off. " Kyouya said as if it was no big deal.

Suddenly, Hani-senpai left the room with his book without saying anything. 

The twins and Tamaki let out a huge sigh. 

" Now that was creepy." Hikaru said as he slumped on the couch.

" I've never seen him this way before. " Kaoru muttered.

" S-should we go check up on him? " Tamaki tugged at my shirt. " Wait, on second thoughts, I'm too scared." 

I ignored him and as soon as I tried to walk away, two hands prevented me from doing so.

" Haruhi. " the twins smirked at me. " Don't even think of escaping. " they finished.

" Sigh, I'll go then." I say before leaving the room too.

------

I searched high and low for Hani-senpai and finally, I found him in the library.

" Haru-chan!" Hani-senpai waved brightly at me.

I waved back and walked towards him. " What're you doing here?" 

" I like coming here whenever I've got something to think about. " He gave me a tight smile.

 " Senpai, is everything okay?" 

" Yup! " he chirped.

" But-" 

" Haru-chan, it's getting late now. See you tomorrow!" and with that, he stormed off.

This is really weird. What Hani-senpai mentioned that is. What could he possibly be thinking about? 

By now, club activities were over and as I was on my way out of the building, Kaoru hollered to me.

" Hey Kaoru, anything?" I asked.

" Yeah, Hani-senpai handed me these tickets. Apparently it's for a-" Kaoru looks at the ticket, "-fashion show." 

" That's weird, why would he give you these? " 

" Yeah, that's the weird part. You do know that my mom is a fashion designer right? " I nod my head as he continues. " That means if I had wanted to go to a fashion show, I could just tell my mom and bam, I'm in. "

I rolled my eyes at him. Rich people and their ways... " So what you're saying is..."

" Yes, why would Hani-senpai give me this?" Kaoru pointed to the tickets. " and what's really weird is...does he even seem like the type to go to these kind of events?"

" No?"

" Exactly! Something is really wrong with Hani-senpai. Ever since he hugged Min, he has been this way. Do you think he has figured out about Min?"

" It's possible, that's what Kyouya and I think too..." 

Hold on something's not right...

" Wait...Kaoru what do you mean by senpai figuring out about Min?" 

" Hmm, I do know that Min is a female. "

" But how'd you know about it?" 

Kaoru just smiled at me. " Who knows... But don't worry, I won't tell anyone. So do you wanna go to the event? It's three days from now. " 

" Kaoru, thanks for the offer but I'm just going to stick out like a sore bum in a place like that. "

Kaoru smirked at me. " I think we can fix that. "

-----

The next day as soon as I walked to my seat, Min and Hikaru were bickering over something. It was more like Hikaru screaming his head off though.

" Don't you even think about shifting my things to another place.  " Min glared at Hikaru before walking out of the class.

" Hey get back here!" he yelled before I pulled him back, preventing him from chasing Min.

" What's all the ruckus about?" I asked.

" As you know, we finally get to switch places after a semester. So, I walked into the class FIRST and as I was about to place my things on the new seat, Min puts his on it. Note that he came in AFTER me!" 

" Oh. " so it was just something like this, I don't have to worry about it then.

" Haruhi! You can't just go 'oh' on me! Where's the justice in this! Ugh never mind, I'm just going to go after him." Hikaru rushes out of the class.

" Did you see that? Min is so cool!" a girl classmate of mine, Minako started fanning herself. 

" How I wish that I could be embraced by those arms and be gazed upon by those cold green eyes of his!" Antoinette squealed. 

" Haruhi, how'd you get Min-sama to talk to you? " Minako looked at me.

Antoinette sighed. " He never talks to us...but that's what makes him so cool!" 

" I don't know...I guess he'll open up to more people soon?" I said. 

These ojou-sama's hearts would be so crushed if they knew that Min was a girl...

" By the way, Haruhi would you like to come with us to the fashion show on Thursday? Papa told me that I could invite some of my friends to the show. " Antoinette offered.

From what the twins have told me, Antoinette transferred from France to Japan and her parents are very well known in the fashion industry and it seems like this time, her father is hosting the event.

" I'm sorry but I'm afraid that I have plans on that day." well, I'm not lying cause I sort of have plans with Kaoru on that day. " Thanks for the offer though. " I smiled at Antoinette before going through my notes for today's lessons. 

Can't afford to fall back after all.
