Second Thoughts

False compliments

~flashback to 7th grade~

There's this one boy that I like. His name is Kaoru, Kaoru Hitachiin. I know that a lot of girls like him, but I think he likes me back! He constantly compliments me and is really sweet. I'm going to tell him that I like him.. eventually....

Meanwhile with Kaoru and Hikaru

"How are things with that Ren girl?" Hikaru asks.

"Things are falling into place. She seems to like me and she'll confess soon." Kaoru replies.

Both twins smirk. "You know Hikaru, breaking the heart of an Ootori is pretty risky" Kaoru says. "Her family is very important and I've heard her siblings are.... protective." He adds.

"Who said that they'll know? Ren won't tell anyone. She'll be so heartbroken, she won't be able to trust anyone again." Hikaru says.

~End of Flashback~

"I give up! My life is over! I can't do!" I exclaim. I shut my book and throw it across my room. Clover ducks her head as it came in her direction. "Why can't I do this! Stupid Algebra!!" I say falling onto my bed.

"It's not that hard Ren. You just have to focus." Clover says checking over my work.

"Thats easy for you to say Miss I get A's on everything." Clover rolls her eyes and goes back to doing her homework.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door. "It's open!" I say. One of our maids opens the door.

"Miss Ren, Master Kyoya has requested your presence in the parlor." She says sweetly. Clover starts to pack her stuff up. "Oh Miss Martin, Mr. Morniozuka has requested your presence as well." Clover looks at the maid in shock.

"Ok we'll be there in a minute." I said as the maid leaves the room. I put on my black hoodie and leave my room. Clover and I make our way to the parlor, I don't know why we have one but we do.

Siting down on the couches are all the host members except for Kyoya who was talking to someone on the phone. I open the door and everyone looks at me.

"You look nice today Ren." The twins say. I roll my eyes.

"I'm in ripped jeans, a faded hoodie and old sneakers. If that's "nice" then what a world you two live in.." I say walking in with Clover. I sit in a chair off to the side while Clover sits by Mori and Honey.

Mori sees Clover and smiles, Clover blushed and smiled shyly. "So what's up?" I ask. Kyoya is off of the phone and is writing in his note book.

"It's coming to the end of the term so we need an idea that will help to celebrate the occasion." Kyoya said still looking at his book.

"Do we really need to celebrate? We're coming right back to that hell hole." I mumble to myself. I hear Clover giggle a bit.

"Well Ren do you have any ideas?" Tamaki asks.

"Well... since it's becoming summer why don't we do a dance or ball. We could put some pretty lights up in the gardens or outside and celebrate at night. It would be beautiful and a perfect "celebration"." I suggested. "But that's just a suggestion..." I finished.

"Well, that sounds great! We could hold a summers ball! I love the idea Ren!" Tamaki announced. "What do you think Kyoya?" He asked.

"Well I like the idea but as it is a ball we would have to open it to the whole academy, which is no problem. Then there are the decorations and..." I cut him off.

"We can cover all of that, Honey, Mori, you're in charge of food selection. Twins, you're on decoration duty, Tamaki and Haruhi you get the word out and charm some guests into coming. Kyoya, you're on finances and Clover and I will help with location and any other planning needs." I ordered.

The club members looked at me shocked a bit. Then the twins smiled "On it boss!" They both said.

"Hey I thought I was the boss!" Tamaki said. The twins shrugged. "Sorry Tamaki but we follow Ren's orders now." They said.

"Wait, Ren why am I part of this?" Clover asks.

"Mori brought you into this, welcome to the club!" I say. "Now Scat! We have 1 week to make this the best Ball possible so go!" I say shooing the club away.

Ok sooo I hope you guys liked that chapter, school just started and I survived the first day! Yay! I feel so short at my school, someone almost ran me over... yeah that was a great experience.
Byeeeeeeeeeeeee
