As we walked back from the grocery store, I looked at haruhi. "You know, you really don't have to help me with this. I admit I broke the vase, so I should work it back." 

"Listen, I know you well enough to know you'd lose your mind and drink bleach if you were left alone with these idiots. Not to mention you need someone to make sure you don't jump off a roof out of impulse. And I know you will. Besides, what kind of best friend would I be if I left you all alone?" I chuckled. "I know your whole sassy tough girl façade like the back of my hand. You need someone who can help you with it. Who knows, this might be good for you." She nudges me. "You might even find your soulmate~" She teased, and I teased right back.

"And you might get a boyfriend. That blonde guy, tamaki seemed pretty interested~"

"He's just doing his host thing. As if."

"Aww come on! He might be!" She laughed as we reached the club.

"Thanks for doing the shopping for us little piglets. Did you get everything on our list?" I looked around. "Hmm? What are you looking for."

"The pigs. Hold on." I pulled out a compact mirror, and opened it, and made it face him. Handing it to him, I spoke. "There it is!"

"What? Where!?"

"Look in the mirror." He deflated, as the twins laughed, as tamaki threw the mirror in my direction (I managed to catch it) and he started rummaging through the groceries, as haruhi explained instant coffee. I hummed 'angry too' by lola blanc to myself as I put the groceries I had away. Everyone was talking about the coffee, and before I knew it, they were having a taste test thing going on. 

"Oh tamaki, now you're taking the joke too far." I turned to a red head. "Your palate won't be able to stomach that crap. You don't have to drink it just because he bought it."

"And you don't have to voice your opinion just because you have it." I told her, hands on my hips. "I get it miss high and mighty, you're rich and fancy, but if he wants to try it, let him."

"I was talking to myself."

"Oh really? Cause if you were talking to yourself, you wouldn't be saying it loud enough to be heard." I saw tamaki dip a girl and say something.

"You're a real bitch aren't you? I bet your friend is too, buying something like that." I leaned in real close and smiled sweetly. 

"Listen up ginny weasely, cause I'm only going to say this once. You can say what you want about me, but if you mess with my best friend, I will end you." I squeezed her shoulder as she gulped. A smile on her face still, but it looked forced. 

"Psh, you're just a commoner! What can you do?"

"Test me and you'll see." I let go, and walked over. "How is it?"

"Very robust. I like it!" Tamaki said. I heard a yawn. 

"Sorry!" I turned to see the two third years, honey and mori senpai's. Honey was on mori's back. "We're running late.

"Hello Honey! Hi mori!"

"We've been waiting here for you guys!" Mori set honey down gently. 

"I'm sorry, I was waiting for takashi to finish his kendo meeting and I fell asleep." He rubbed his eyes. "And I'm still not completely awake." I walked over. 

"Can I get you guys anything? Coffee? Tea? Some sweets?"

"Ooh! Strawberry cake please!"

"I'll take some tea!"

"Me too please!"

"Yeah."

"Yes please!"

"Okay, four teas and a cake. I'll be right back ladies!" I walked away, and when I came back, they were talking about foreign languages. "Oh? If you're having trouble with English, I can help you out seeing as it's my native language." They looked at me. "What? I'm from the states, so it's only natural that I speak it. I also speak a little Spanish." 

"Takashi speaks English too!" I looked at him, and he nodded. 

"Hmm. Cool."

"I didn't know you were American though. Your Japanese is so good! Who helped you?"

"Haruhi did actually. And thank you. Well, I'd better get going!" He noticed haruhi, and jumped on her like I did, and I laughed. 

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing it's just.." I motioned over to honey and haruhi. "I do the same thing to him." I was playing along to see how long it took for the hosts to find out haruhi was a girl. He hummed and patted my head. It felt like fireworks. I brushed it off, telling myself I'd figure it out later, even if the feeling confused me. 

"You're going to have to work hard to pay off that debt, my little nerd." He blew on her neck, and she jumped. 

"Please don't do that again." 

"You need a makeover or no girl is going to look twice at you!"

"Yeah, well I'm not trying to get girls to look at me."

"Are you kidding me?! That's the most important thing! Take y/n as an example. Simple yet beautiful clothing makes her a gem amongst men." He kneeled and took my hand, and kissed it, and I pulled it away. 

"Didn't I already pass on you?" Tamaki had gone on to talk to haruhi about being a gentleman and pleasing the ladies. Oh boy was he in for a rude awakening when he found out! I ignored him, and decided to hang out with the third years. "Mind if I hang out with you guys? Everyone is good on things, and I have nothing else to do."

"Nope not at all!" Honey senpai said as he moved over a bit, letting me sit down. I was sitting next to takashi, and they had to guests at the moment as they had switched out. 

"So, can you guys tell me a little about yourselves? You already know a bit about me." 

"Takashi doesn't talk much, but he likes kendo and music. He even plays the bass guitar! I like cake and bunnies, and karate and jujitsu! Takashi also does judo. And we're cousins!" 

"You know, I was wondering the relation."

"Obnoxious!" Haruhi yelled, and I looked over to see tamaki senpai sitting balled up in a corner. The twins laughed. 

"oh you're a hero alright." one of the twins said, as they both rested their hands on her head. 

"I'm sorry senpai, but you did strike a small chord in me." Tamaki got up from being depressed. 

"Really it did? Let me teach you more my friend!"

"What is going on over there?" The two third years shrugged. 

"Boss?"

"Call me king!" 

"You can teach him all the basics of hosting"

"But he's not going to get very far with the ladies if he doesn't look the part. But maybe if we take off his glasses?" He did so, and paused, as haruhi went on about needing them and losing her contacts. Tamaki snapped his fingers. 

"Hikaru, kaoru!" 

"Got it!" They soluted, before dragging haruhi off somewhere."

"Kyoya! My hair stylist." He dialed some numbers into the phone he had. "Mori senpai go to the eye doctor and get him some contact lenses!" He ran off. 

"What about me tama-chan! What can I do?"

"Honey senpai!"

"Yessir!"

"Go... have some cake."

"It's just us usa-chan. Everyone else said they were too busy."

"Want me to join you?"

"That's be nice!" I chuckled and pulled up a chair, grabbing a slice of f/f cake for myself. We talked about bunnies, and our siblings since it turns out we both have little siblings around the same age, and I also talked about my annoying big brother. 

"I know he means well, but he criticizes everything I do! Just the other day I was watching a YouTube video on f/g, and he made fun of the guy playing it." 

"Intresting. How old is he?"

"He's in his first year of collage. Childcare development. He's not home much anymore, but when he is, its like a non stop fight."

"I get that. Whenever I see chika chan we have to battle. Family rule on my side." 

"That both sounds like fun, and like it royally blows." As girls filed out for the day, we all went to the changing room, to see haruhi.

"Umm... senpai?"

"Aren't you done changing yet?" She opened the curtain.

"Are you sure it's really okay for me to keep this uniform?" Tamaki gushed over haruhi.

"Cute! You're as pretty as a girl! Adorable!"

"Haru chan you look so cute!"

"If we knew thats how you really looked from the beginning, we'd have helped you out sooner!"

"Who knows, maybe he'll draw in some customers!"

"You know, that's just what I was thinking!"

"Bullcrap." Mori chuckled next to me. I forgot he can understand what I say. 

"Our errand boy is running up the ranks! Starting today you are an official member of the host club! We'll train you to be a first ranked host. If you can get 100 girls to request you, we'll forgive your 8 million yen debt."

"A host?"

"Ahem." They turned to me. "Last I checked, we're splitting it. What about me?"

"You're going to be our maid!"

"We have just the outfit!"

"If it's some skanky maid outfit and you think you can get me into it... you're absolutely right, show me." They looked at me and laughed. "I like the attention, so yeah, lets go." Now here's the thing about me, I'm on the thicker side, since short but chunky women run in the family. But not overweight, just a little pudgy. I can't say I hate it either, but sometimes I get a little self conscious. But in this, I felt good. It fit to my curves like it was made for me, and while it was short, it had some shorts under so I wouldn't flash anyone. It was a simple black and white dress, with lace under the skirt, and a small apron. Thigh high socks and mary jane shoes accompanies it, along with little white gloves made of silk. When I came out, I smiled softly. "Well? What do you think?"

"I think we got just the right size!"

"Oh my gosh you look beautiful!"

"Yeah."

"It's so cute y/n chan!"

"Looks good."

"It looks nice." I looked at the clock. 

"It's getting pretty late, we should go home." I changed back into my normal clothes, and left the maid outfit in the changing room, before we headed home for the night. "What a day, huh?"

"Yeah." I heard my soulmate humming as I hummed along with him, as Haruhi and I walked to our homes.
