Here Comes a New Hostess

Chapter 9: Not This Again...

We ran as fast as we could, but it was obvious we were too late when we saw Kasanoda’s beet red face.

“Peeping tom!” My brothers growled

“Looks like there’s another pervert in the host club.” I giggled making Kazu chuckle a bit

“You saw, didn’t you, Bossa nova?” They growled

“It was just an accident! I swear to you, I’m not a pervert!” Kasanoda said covering his eyes in shame

“Of course you would say that. Sure sigh of a guilty conscience.” Honey said rather intimidatingly

“And, I thought we were friends…Ritsu” I said pretending to be hurt while Kazu looked ashamed

“So, Fujioka’s a girl?” Ritsu said finally stopping himself from shaking

“Uh oh. He knows Haruhi’s little secret.” Kaoru said

“That’s not good…” Hikaru added

“So, how much did you see?” They asked in unison

“Well, she was changing, so I saw her underwear…” Ritsu said with an ashamed look

“You saw her underwear?!” My brothers yelled

“We can fix that…” I hissed holding up a baseball bat that Hikaru took while Kaoru held Ritsu in place

“That’s enough. Leave assault and battery to the professionals.” Kyoya-senpai said before they could hit him

“You have one’s number?” I asked coldly

“Look! The boss is so deep in shock, he’s regressing!” Hikaru said pointing the bat in Tamaki-senpai’s direction. He was sitting on the ground propped up against a column, white as a ghost. Kazu was just poking him with a stick he must’ve grabbed out the window.

“Let’s talk.” Kyoya-senpai said with his shadow king side showing, explaining why Haruhi has to be a boy and what he would do if word got out.

“Alright! Momma’s protecting his little girl!” I cheered

“More like his money…” Kazu said still poking Tamaki-senpai

“Come on guys. Cut him some slack. Look, Casanova. I don’t care who you tell.” Haruhi smiled

“Well, well, Bossa Nova…” Hikaru started

“Since you know she’s a girl, are you in love?” Kaoru asked followed by Tamaki-senpai’s screams

“Poor senpai…” Kazu and I said in unison shaking our heads

The next day at the host club, Kasanoda requested Haruhi attracting all the girls’ attention

“Renge! Is it true?!” One of the girls asked

“Is he really of that persuasion?” Another specified and all you could hear after that was Kazu and I dying of laughter in the background

“I can’t even! They think he’s gay! HAHAHA!” I laughed while my as my brothers whined to Kyoya about the uproar

“I can’t believe they actually bought that crap!” Kazu laughed

“Wait, what?” I asked wiping a tear from my eye

“Let’s just say, I got payback for the whole lovely item thing for you.” He smirked

“Speaking of payback…Looks like Reiko’s back for round two.” I said glaring at her as she made her way through the crowd of fangirls

“Hi Kazuma. Could you leave us alone for a minute?” Reiko asked with an innocent smile that said she was aware that the other hosts could hear us, but Kazu just stepped between us

“Are you out of your mind?” Kazu snapped not as aware as we were

“It’s okay. You should probably make sure Tamaki-senpai isn’t dead.” I said pointing over to the pale blonde in Honey-senpai’s arms

“There’s no way.” He said

“Please? She won’t touch me, not with all the people in here.” I smiled at him reassuringly

“Fine.” He sighed after a long silence and continued, “If she does, I’ll get your brothers to do what they planned to do to Kasanoda to her.” Before walking over to my brothers

“As you can see, we’re really busy right now.” I said with a plastered smile

“Doesn’t seem like you’re ever busy though, does it?” She smirked

“You know, you and this whole ‘I think I know what I’m saying, but I really don’t’ thing is getting on my nerves. I only came here to be with my brothers, and later, Kazu. I really don’t care how many guests I get, because I have a boyfriend. How many times am I going to have to explain these things?”

“I’m just gathering some information. No need to be so defensive.” She said and turned around on her heel and left

“That was quick. What did she want?” Kazu asked

“I don’t know, but she’s up to something…” I said letting out a worried sigh before turning my attention to the boys just in time to see sheer horror on Tamaki-senpai’s face

“On another note, who do you think is going to have a heart attack first? Tamaki-senpai or Ritsu?” I asked looking between Ritsu’s beet red face and senpai’s pale face

“F-Fujioka… Do you think that…maybe we could do this more often?” Ritsu stammered

“Absolutely! That way you and I could get more acquainted.” Haruhi smiled

“Here it comes!” Renge yelled holding binoculars in front of her eyes

“I, uh…got something to say… I just wanted to tell you…I just wanted to tell you…That I’m…” Ritsu stammered again as everyone in the room leaned forward in their direction including me

“That you’re excited to have someone you can relate to, aren’t you? I know I sure am. A conversation like this is a rare thing for me. We’re going to be great friends.” Haruhi said smiling at him

“He got friendzoned!” Kazu laughed rolling around on the floor

“I can’t…” I giggled trying to hold back a laughing fit

“Uh oh… hung out to dry.” Renge sighed

“Of course the two of us are going to be friends. The best of friends!” Ritsu said

“I think I just heard Ritsu’s heart break…” I sweatdropped while most of the hosts and guests in the room ran towards him

 “What’s the matter, Tamaki?” Kyoya-senpai asked the kneeling king

“When I think about how Bossa nova was feeling, my heart goes out to him.” Tamaki-senpai mumbled

“But, I thought Haruhi was your daughter. I don’t think dad’s feel sympathy for the boys who are trying to take their daughter away from them.” I said

“It’s weird. I think of you as my daughter too, but when you and Kazu started going out, I didn’t feel like this.”

“Me?” I asked a little shocked at the fact he thinks of me as his daughter too

“Of course. Hikaru and Kaoru are my sons, so you’re my daughter.” He said like it was common sense
