"Get your wing out of my face!"
Tamaki hissed before sharply turning his head towards Kyoya.

"Why is he even a Tengu anyways?! Especially when the rest of us are regular people?!"

Kyoya pushed his glasses up,
"Our recent analytics say that our guests like a little bit of fantasy, and (y/n) seemed like our best candidate,"

Tamaki just grumbled for a bit before recomposing himself, hearing the footsteps and hushed voices of approaching guests.

"Welcome back, ladies,"
You all said in unison.

~•~

"Where's (y/n)?"
A girl asked, wandering about the decorated courtyard.

The girl tripped on a rock and began to hurdle towards the ground, but a gust of wind kept her upright.

"Careful now, I wouldn't want to see you get hurt,"

She looked up and saw you standing on the branch of a tree, hopping off and floating down towards her.

"How is he doing that?!"
Tamaki whisper yelled to Kyoya, interested in how his fellow second year managed to pull this off.

Kyoya spoke quietly,
"I don't know,"

"WHAT?!"

Once you made it towards your damsel in distress, you held her gently in your arms, tidying up the hair which had fallen on her face.

"I'm sorry if I messed up your hair, I'd rather that than your pretty face,"

The girl swooned in your arms, a bright red blush on her face.

Maybe you and Haruhi were getting a little too used to hosting activities, but who could blame you when you were this good?

Suddenly you heard a loud crash, and somehow you knew it was Tamaki's doing.

~•~

"Really, we're terribly sorry about that,"
The blonde apologized to the newspaper club president.

The newspaper was more like a trashy tabloid you'd find in a salon. The president expressed how he wanted to shift the newspaper's focus, and to report on the host club.

Though Tamaki wanted to accept, Kyoya stopped him, the other hosts also expressing their disdain for the idea.

Tamaki ended up all alone crouched on the ground, pouting because of the other host's decision. You and Haruhi gave each other a nod, and while she started to try and convince the other hosts, you went over to raise Tamaki's spirits.

"Dont worry senpai, Haruhi and I will help you out,"
You crouched down with him, rubbing his back soothingly.

Even if it was you, he was glad to have the support by his side. Still, he needed the support of the whole group to accomplish his goal.

He flashed his puppy dog eyes at the hosts, chipping away at them until they had no choice but to accept their fate. Still, Kyoya seemed a little bit hesitant, so you figured you'd have to follow in the blonde's full steps.

Instead of puppy dog eyes though, you walked up to the shadow king, hugging his arm and resting your head on his shoulder.

"C'mon senpai, what's the harm in it? Besides, we could always charge them a percentage, or run some ads,"

The smallest smile formed on his lips, from both your action and your words.

Though the twins and Haruhi glared at you judgingly, if Kyoya agreed with the plan, then they saw no reason not to go along with it.

~•~

Despite the gossip rag's president's wants, he just couldn't seem to expose Tamaki's "dark side."

Before you knew it, Tamaki was running off with Haruhi in tow, Kyoya counting up while the newspaper club president grumbled in annoyance.

You weren't too fond of the idea of letting the blonde have Haruhi alone in a secluded area, so you decided to follow them from a distance.

You were hot on their trail, but you didn't want your presence to be noticed, so you carefully slipped into the rose bushes of the maze, being careful not to be pricked by their thorns.

"It's a lot of fun!"
Tamaki giggled, getting a smile returned by Haruhi.

"We should do this again sometime!"

"I think so too,"
Haruhi replied.

...

"We're not getting out of here, are we?"
Haruhi asked.

Tamaki grimaced,

"Yeah, you've definitely found a good hiding spot,"
You spoke up while emerging from the bushes, sitting right between Tamaki and Haruhi.

"What're you doing here?!"
Tamaki shrieked as though he'd just seen a ghost, which he thought he did for a moment there.

"Just making sure you weren't getting handsy,"
You explained while checking Haruhi for damage, knowing very well the blonde didn't lay a finger on her.

"I can handle myself fine, (y/n),"
Haruhi rolled her eyes.

"You say that when you got dragged by a rich boy into a maze and got lost,"
You retorted.

"Do you know the way out then?"
Haruhi asked, only to be disappointed by the shaking of your head.

You laid back in your seat, letting out a satisfied sigh,
"This is a pretty nice spot! Nice work, senpai,"

The third year begrudgingly accepted your compliment. Though he was annoyed that you were there, he couldn't help but notice that the leaves and rose petals in your hair did make a good look for you.

"Oh Haruhi, look what I found in the bushes!"
You pulled a torn up paper from your pocket, laying it out flat on the stone table.

Was this... a picture of Tamaki in his first year?

"It's weird how innocent looking he is,"
Haruhi noted.

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"I think he looks pretty cute here. Such a shame what time does..."
You added sadly.

Tamaki tried to defend himself as best as he could from the slight insults you and Haruhi threw at him, the two of you finding joy in the little jabs.

~•~

"I found you!"

Your dark haired savior arrived, the twins explaining what happened to the newspaper club.

'THEY TOTALLY THREATENED THEM'

"You've got plant in your hair!"
Honey picked out the leaves from your hair, smiling as if he was playing a game.

"Hold on, I think I can..."
You stood still for a moment before violently shaking your head about, the leaves and petals being flung out of your hair.

When you stopped, the foliage that'd been evicted from your head floated down slowly around you like you were the male lead of a shoujo manga.

"Did I get them all out, Mori-senpai?"
You asked.

The tall third year stood silent, the image of the petals floating around you repeating in his mind.

"Takashi! (Y/n)-chan asked you a question!"
Honey pat his cousin's head until he became responsive, just giving you a subtle nod.

It was a bit strange, but then again, you couldn't blame him from daydreaming.

From the backline as Kyoya finished talking with Haruhi, he made a mental note to get you around more flowers.
