Something Sweet

Ch. 3: The Mysterious Type

"Yuuto-senpai, how come your not like the other hosts?" One of my clients ask, sitting at the bar to my baking station.

"Yuuto-senpai, how come you bake a lot?"

"Yuuto-senpai, why don't you talk much?"

Three of my four clients ask simultaneously while I prepare them some miniature sweets.

"The other hosts may be better for you, they will give you what you deserve while I cannot. I don't wish to talk because I don't know how to put my feelings into words, which is why I bake. You should visit another host, but while your here this is the much affection I can offer you." I place down their plates of cake making them swoon. "Like all sweets, if you have too much, it's bad for you."

They all sigh, some crying by the beauty of my performance. I look to the last girl who has been watching and swooning quietly and tip her chin up to look at me. "Don't linger to watch a broken toy. Not even if I enjoy your silent gazes, I only wish you realize this." I run my thumb over her bottom lip, cleaning it of chocolate and lick it off my thumb and they all faint.

"Wow, your good at this, Yuuto-senpai." The twins say, coming up to pick on my sweets.

"I keep trying to get them to go away to you or someone else but instead I'm backed up." I sigh wiping my chocolate covered thumb, that I pretended to lick, on a towel.

"Currently, Yuuto is bringing in more customers and business then predicted. You're currently even stealing clients from other hosts because they wish to experience what the clients are calling, the "mysterious type" and sometimes even the "captivating type." Not to mention that several clients are requesting private time with you and days without baking so you can focus on them more." Everyone is dumbfounded, looking to me.

"I wouldn't like that. I don't want to have to try when I'm with them. I use the baking as a way to distance myself from them." I say, handing each one their trays of snack they requested.

"What!? You don't even try!?" Tamaki asks.

"Don't shout when I'm right next to you. I can hear you perfectly." I say as I close his gaping mouth with my index finger.

"O-okay..." He says blushing.

"Look, Yuuto's type can even work on the prince." The twins laugh.

"I think Yuuto-senpai is just naturally like this but most just take it as him being mysterious." Haruhi says and I put a hand on his shoulder.

"Thank you for understanding. This is some snacks for you since I've seen that you don't eat sweets a lot." I hand her a fancy bowl of granola, nuts, and chocolate chips. She blushes.

"T-thank you." She blushes and I run a hand through my hair with a sigh.

"Is it time for my break? Or do one of you have another request for me?" I ask and a few girls nearby sigh and fall over.

"Yuu-chan, can you make me a cake to take home again?" Honey asks sweetly making me smile softly.

"Of course, Mitsukuni. Yours is already cooling down and almost ready to frost." I hear more girls fall.

"Oh, Yuuto-senpai has a soft spot for Honey-senpai! It's so cute!"

"I wonder if our request for Yuuto-senpai to do a host pairing went through! He should pair with Honey first!" We all raise an eyebrow at Kyoya.

"That was also a request and I'm judging how he'll work with each of you. You could easily be paired with any of us but the twins since they clash with your kind hosting." I shrug.
