Ch.18: Opperation Y/N's and Hikaru's Date (Prt.1)

-Pension Misuzu-

"It's been since our graduation ceremony from middle school, huh?" Haruhi asked, smiling weakly as he sat at one of the tables in the motel with Arai and Y/N. "Though, I don't really understand how you've met Y/N before." He added afterwards, looking a bit interested as to how his friend knew the time traveler.

"We met when we were both in elementary school." Arai explained.

"Yeah. I was trying to find Neko-kun, and ended up tripping on a crack in the sidewalk. I got a big scrape on my knee, and Arai came to my rescue with bandages." Y/N awkwardly laughed as she rubbed the back of her neck. "It was really cute, too, because he looked about ready to faint at the amount of blood." She added afterwards, causing Arai to blush darkly.

"Anyways, have you both settled in at Ouran?" Arai quickly attempted at changing the topic. "Do you ever see anyone from middle school, Haruhi?"

"Mhmm...Sort of. Kazumi calls me a lot, and such." Haruhi informed.

Meanwhile, the hosts watched from the other side of the room, not at all seeming too impressed or annoyed by the presence of Arai. Well, most of them.

"So he's a friend of both Haruhi and Y/N? I wonder if he knows her secret." Kyoya wondered aloud, while Honey happily ate cake beside him.

"If he's had zero contact since graduation, he's not a friend, he's just a former classmate." Hikaru stated with a slight sneer, causing Kaoru to glance at his twin in question.

"You say they're in the same club as you are. What club is that?" Arai innocently asked Haruhi and Y/N.

"The Host Club." Haruhi told him, a bit hesitantly.

"Eh? The softball club, huh?" Arai seemed completely oblivious.

"Hey, Haruhi! Y/N! Shouldn't you be working?" Hikaru called out, holding up his empty glass of sweet tea. "We've got a goldbricker over here!"

"Misuzu-san let us have a break." Y/N casually replied, Haruhi sweatdropping beside her, before he turned to glance at the doorway to a closet when he heard a ripping noise.

"Senpai, could you not make any more garbage, please?" He asked Tamaki, who was ripping the guide he had created earlier into shreds that oddly resembled the paper that is put at the bottom of hamster cages.

"It's not garbage. I'm making a hamster home." Tamaki responded. Called it! Y/N thought, a grin quirking at the tips of her lips.

"Senpai, you don't have a hamster, right?" Haruhi continued to question the older blond.

"I'm not your senpai. I'm just an acquaintance." Tamaki continued to pout over what had happened only moments before.

-10 minutes ago-

Tamaki desperately glanced between the three, his eyes wide as if he were attempting to figure something out. Kneeling in front of him were the twins, one seeming to be as confused as the blond and the other seeming more annoyed.

"Um, friends of yours?" Arai questioned the two shyly.

"Yeah, this is Hikaru and Kaoru." Haruhi introduced. "They're in the same class as Y/N and I in high school. And this...is an acquaintance of mine." He smiled innocently, not meaning to offend Tamaki as he was just abiding by the French-Japanese male's earlier wishes of not calling him senpai during the vacation.

Even so, Tamaki looked completely paralyzed, if not betrayed, which caused Y/N to snort in amusement. Especially when Misuzu began playing dramatic music on the piano in the background.
