"Mannabe produce!" a boy said. Wait, why do I recognise that voice. Mannabe, Mannabe, who is Mannabe. I stood up quickly, slamming my hands on the table. Everyone looked at me startled as I stared at the boy.
"I-Ichirou....Mannabe?" I asked.
"A-Aiko?.." he replied surprised. Tamaki, Hikaru and Kaoru stared shocked, their mouths gaped open.

~Aiko's P.O.V~
Me and Ichirou sat at a table, the rest of the hosts nearby staring.
"I haven't seen you since we were kids! You look so different." I said smiling. Ichirou was a childhood friend of mine, he lived next door to me. Somehow we lost touch around about when I started getting bullied. Some of the hosts looked confused at my smiling face.
"you look different too Aiko, you even have a blue streak in your hair." He said with a chuckle.
"yeah but im still just as short." I mumbled, twisting a piece of my hair around. He smiled at me, and I smiled back. Seeing Ichirou was making me think of when we were kids. Everything was great and peaceful back then, I had a friend, I hadn't been bullied yet and my brother hadn't been in his accident yet.
I noticed Hikaru sitting on a stool in the corner, he had no interest in listening like everybody else.
~no one's P.O.V~
"so they were childhood friends, and neighbours." Kyoya said to the group.
"they haven't had any contact for years, so in my opinion they are merely acquaintances." Hikaru grumbled, sticking his nose in the air.
~Aiko's P.O.V~
"so you're in a host club? How'd that happen?" Ichirou asked.
"please don't ask." I said with a sigh, placing my head in my hand. Just thinking about it gives me a headache. Aiko looked over to Tamaki who was crouched on the floor shredding up paper.
"Tamaki. Haruhi's gonna be mad if you keep making a mess." I said glaring at him. I don't need to hear Haruhi yelling at him this early in the morning.
"its not a mess, im making a hamster home.." he said depressingly.
"senpai. You don't have a hamster." I said sighing once again. He continued to mumble something about not introducing him as my senpai, but I blocked him out. Haruhi started yelling at him and I dropped my head on the table in frustration.
"still not a morning person I see." Ichirou chuckled. I nodded my head slowly as Haruhi continued to yell.
"you know when we lost contact I was kind of worried, being a kid, I had a big imagination. So its nice to run into you like this and see that you're doing fine." He said rubbing the back of his neck, I smiled. His face turned red.
"I-I mean a lot of the people you lost contact with were worried at first too!" he basically screamed at me, trying to get it out quickly. I overheard the hosts whispering to one another.
"what's with him." Hikaru grumbled, he continued talking but I couldn't hear the rest.
"you're being awfully critical of someone you barely know Hikaru." Kyoya replied.
"im just saying!" Hikaru began to get louder, as if he wanted us to hear him. "it's obvious he has a crush on Aiko. It's gross watching him flirt, especially since he barely knows her know." Hikaru scowled. A frown appeared on Ichirous face which made me agitated. What's with him? What's with you!? You're being so rude! I thought to myself. I couldn't take his snobby-ness anymore. I slammed my hands on the table and stood up quickly, glaring at Hikaru.
