The Perfect Prince isn't so Perfect. ((Ouran High School Host Club))

Chapter 2: Dancing on both side of the lines

After everyone got accustomed to Haruhi's true gender it was a whole lot calmer around here. I walked in and put on the Hawaiian outfit, I explained to everyone the first year here that I have a chest condition and if it becomes to cold I'd break out in an unattractive rash. So they always gave me something to cover my chest. Sara began to complain about how Haruhi had more customers than me, but that's only because one of my lovely girls caught a stomach bug this morning. I sometimes forget that I'm really a girl... yet still no one knows after two years.

Hikaru and Kaoru were doing their brotherly love when Sara left. I took this time when I had no customers to go tell Kyoya what Sara has been doing to my other customers. "She's your customer, you deal with it." Kyoya said and I sighed, "someone got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning." I said and poked his cheek. He removed my hand and went back to writing. A few moments later the Host duties were done and everything was removed. Tamaki was depressed that he lost one of his girls to Haruhi but she did have the Host hopping dieses. Tamaki left a half eaten Top Ramen and told Haruhi to revert to the way she was before. "I like Haruhi like this. Her hair has more shape to it." I said and began to eat the rest of the noodles. "Big brother, if you eat that you'll ruin your appetite." Hikaru and Kaoru said, They only see this side of me, they haven't dropped by my house so they'll never know that I live alone or that I eat this, most of the times less, everyday at home. I have just as much money as the next guy but I'd rather keep a low profile. It's been eleven years but I can feel that their after me. I escaped them once, I could probably do it again but... "Ash-Chan, are you alright?" I saw Honey looking up to me. "Why wouldn't I be?" I asked confused, "it's just that you had a tear roll down your cheek." He said and Mori brushed my cheek to show me the tear. "I was just thinking about Haruhi, don't you think she looks cute?" I said and Mori looked at me with his dead panned look, I knew what he was thinking, he knew I was lying.

After the day was done I walked home and noticed that Haruhi was going my way. "Haruhi," I said and smiled, "Ashitaka-Sempai?" She asked as we walked over to the apartment complex that was near my house. "You live around here?" I asked, "yeah, you as well?" She asked, "sort of. I'd much rather walk." I said and we separated so she went into the apartment. I walked half a mile to get to my house and I unlocked my door and locked it right back up again. I set my bag down on the kitchen island desk top. I did my homework and began to make my lunch. Nibbling as went along, I packed it up and placed it in the fridge. I walked up to my room and got changed into my pyjamas.

I woke up and went to take a shower, I got dry and dressed. Took my bag and lunch from the counter and fridge and ran to school. I got there and checked in on my little brothers. "Hikaru, Kaoru." I said in a sign song voice. "Big brother Ashitaka!" They said and hugged me. I like it when they call me big brother, would have liked it better if they would have called me big sister but... I'm a guy now. "You boy's ready for the home EC course?" I asked as we walked down the hall to our classrooms. "Waah, you know we're not good at cooking." Right, they only took the class to be with me. I smiled and ruffled their hair. "I'll see you soon." I said and opened the door to my class. My hair was still wet from the shower and the girls were giggling over it. "Ashitaka where do you live exactly?" Tamaki asked, "why?" I said now getting a bit worried, "it's just that now that Haruhi's joined the Host Club we wanted to pay her a visit sometime then I realized that as long as I've known you, I haven't been to your house." He said, "Then go to Haruhi's house then." I said and sat down on the desk he was sitting at. He nearly began to cry, "Mama! Our son is being secretive!" Tamaki said to Kyoya, "for once our king has a point, I don't even know where you live. You don't drive so it must be close." He said and I sighed, "make all the guesses you wish to Kyoya," I said and the bell rung.

After that I ran to Home EC and put on an apron so I didn't get my uniform dirty. Hikaru and Kaoru arrived and we found out that today we could bake or make what ever we wanted. Many people made salads and the twins made a few cupcakes, only four or so we're editable. I made a cake with red, blue, pink, purple, orange, white, black, and yellow roses. I smiled as the bell rang and I took the cake to lunch in the club room. The twins opened the door for me as they munched on their cupcakes. "Ash-Chan! Did you make that?" Honey asked as I set it down. "Do you honestly think I'd cook something that we all couldn't share?" I said and smiled, in the first year here I thought that I'd be in deep shit if they found out that I can cook, seeing how I was posing as a rich kid without a care in the world but all they did was eat whatever I made.

I cut the cake and gave everyone some and Honey just ate the rest on the plate. I watched as everyone ate and Haruhi who was smiling as she took her first bite. She somehow got a bit of icing on the cheek. "Haruhi, you got a bit of frosting on your face." I said and wiped it away and sucked it off my thumb. Tamaki began to say that I was perverted and I just smiled over to Haruhi. Her cheeks were dusty pink, as if the last bit of light hit her face.

The rest of the school day was boring but after school I went over to the Host Club, we don't have any customers because Haruhi needed to learn how to dance. Tamaki was sulking because he wanted to teach Haruhi how to dance but he was just too tall to be the girl. I was just slightly taller than him but still three inches shorter than Mori. After Haruhi was done dancing Kanako left and I poked Haruhi. "You know hosts also have to learn how it is on the other side of the line. So would you mind terribly if Tamaki taught you how to dance as a girl?" I whispered and she looked at me, "Really, you know how to dance as a girl?" She asked nearly dumbfounded. "Why of course." I said and asked Takashi to dance with me. "Sure. . ." He said and I placed my hands into position. We began to dance till he stepped on my toes. "There. You see?" I said and pushed Tamaki at her. Everyone was much happier and I just smiled. This should turn out nicely.
