The Silence I Needed (Mori x Reader)

A Jealous Mori is a Wild Mori

Sorry for the slow updates, but I thank all of y'all for being patient with me! We're almost at the end. Also, enjoy (beware?) this random smut chapter.

Mori and I weren't too worried about how the host club would react to the ring. I said I wanted to show it off to Haruhi and my friends, and he shrugged and said it was my ring. The ring didn't catch too many eyes. It didn't matter though because most people at school knew we were engaged already; this just confirmed it. Of course, a Tamaki in his natural habitat is still attracted to shiny objects. He zeroed in on me like he did that first day of my club.

"YOU PROPOSED AND DIDN'T INVOLVE US?"

Oh my lord. "NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT YOU SENPAI, LEAVE THEM ALONE," Haruhi yelled.

I laughed behind my (non-ring) hand and everyone just stared at us. What else is new? "Mori-senpai?" Kyoya asked. "Are you trying to gain good graces with (Y/N)'s father with that?"

I looked down and realized what Kyoya meant. This was a ring from one of my own family's jewelleries. So Takashi put good money and thought into making sure I was happy and my parents were happy. What a guy. I smiled and Mori scratched nervously at the back of his head. "This means a lot to me Takashi." His eyes went wide. Did he think that would bother me? I'm only bothered by the fact that it took me this long to realize it.

That day had been one of the days where my club didn't meet, which meant I had got to sit with Haruhi and their guests. When I got over there, the guests were murmuring about how Haruhi had yelled at Tamaki-senpai and he automatically hid in a corner. I laughed and thanked Haruhi. They brushed it off and asked if I wanted to help them make some tea for the guests. I agreed. What's Haruhi up to? They usually like to have this time for themselves.

"Sorry to bring you back here. I wanted to ask if I could see your ring, but I didn't want to bring more attention to you." I laughed and held out my hand. "It's so... bright. I can't imagine wearing anything this expensive."

"To be fair, Haruhi, I don't think I have either. Mori won't tell me how much this costs, but I bet it's a lot." Haruhi and I both shrugged and made the tea for the guests. Tamaki stopped me on my way out of the room. He took the tray and set it on a nearby table, then dragged me back into the room.

"(Y/N)-senpai, I've been keeping an eye on you and I have a proposition for you. How would you like to work for the host club? You'd technically be our first hostess. And you wouldn't have to change a thing you're doing. You already help make tea and coffee with Haruhi, and you have customers of your own. You may even be able to bring in some male customers. Kyoya says this could really help the damage you've caused to the host club already." I frowned at his last statement but did think about it. It sounds fun, and as he said, I pretty much already do it. It'll give me something to do on my off days.

"Okay."

"Really? You don't want to check with Mori-senpai first?"

"He trusts me. He's also not the boss of me."

So, a week later, there was a big promotional event for "the Host Club's first hostess." I was requested by a few girls, but there were so many boys that I had to have two tables. I was excited though. I didn't really know any of the guys at the school and I still had two months to meet some before graduation.

Wesley and Michael were my first guests. Wesley was a little hyperactive, and Michael was very level-headed but still fun. Then there was Trevor, who didn't talk much, and Sam, who was very flirty. I was told that it was my job to make every girl and boy happy. There were just so many of them. I don't know how the hosts all keep up.
