" Really? All afternoon classes have been canceled? Why? "

   " Ouran is hosting an exposition for the cultural clubs. Drama and choir clubs from a bunch of other schools have been invited. It's a big event the school manually hosts. " Haruhi explained to me.

   " Huh, well at least we don't have to go to class. "

   " Do, you need any help with those pies? "

   " No, I think I got it. "

Haruhi and I were in the host club, and she explained why there were no classes. She had gone to class, but the girls in the class told her why the teacher wasn't there. I felt happy that classes wouldn't be commencing for the next few days. It gave me less time to work on homework and study for exams. I looked down at the pie crust I was rolling out and saw no lumps in it. 

   " Actually can you grab that muffin tray? "

   " Sure. "

Haruhi went behind me and grabbed the muffin tray, and handed it to me. I dusted my hands off and grabbed the tray, setting it on the counter to put the crust over it.

   " Haruhi! "

Haruhi and I looked up to the twins and saw them running towards us. They both picked her up and started dragging her away.

   " We need you to grab some instant coffee! "

   " Why can't you guys do it yourselves? " She shouted.

   " Because. "

I could only wave at Haruhi as the twins took her out of the host club room. I continued filling the muffin tins with pie crust to make tiny pies when I heard a clanking noise. I once again looked up to see the hosts wearing armor, specifically knights armor. I rolled my eyes at their roleplay costume and started cutting off the excess crust.

   " Princess! How do I look? " Tamaki yelled over to me.

   " You look great, Tamaki! You'll defiantly be someone's knight today. " I yelled back at him.

His smile brightened, and I could see a tiny blush run across his face. They settled themselves on the couch in front of the door to welcome the first guests of the day. I continued making the tiny pies when the doors opened. I listened to the conversation that was taken place while I worked on the mini pies.

   " Welcome ladies! "

There was no response from the two girls that entered the room. I was surprised to not hear any giggling.

   " Well, well, well, I see you ladies are from another school. I certainly hope we haven't startled you. We love first-time guests. "

I could recognize the voice as Tamaki's. I grabbed a bowl and started making the fillings. Kyoya said I needed to make chocolate, dutch, apple, cherry, and chess pies. Nothing too hard, but still a lot to do. I looked up for a few seconds to see Tamaki approaching the two ladies. 

   ' They're really pretty. '

One was taller than the other, but they both wore the same uniform. It looked better than ours, and I felt happy I didn't have to wear it while I was in the host club room. The skirts were a deep maroon color that reached just past their knees, and they wore white stockings with pale shoes. Their shirts met the top of the skirt, and it was white with the ends folded up to their elbows. A bow decorated the front of the shirt, and it was the same color as their shoes. Their faces were stern and held no excitement for meeting the hosts.

   ' Tough crowd. '

   " My darlings, even if the world were to be destroyed, I'd put my life on the line, as your faithful knight and servant. I will protect you. "

   " And I thought I had heard the cheesiest line yesterday. " I said to myself.

I finished the chess filling and started filling the pies and decorating the tops while I continued to listen.

   " Oh my, do you really think you'd be able to protect us? That's awfully arrogant of you, wouldn't you agree? You think that's what a woman wants to hear? Well, you're wrong. "

   " Ouch. " I said before the shorter girl started talking.

   " C'mon, give him a break, Sister Suzuran. Men are just lowly life forms who don't care about anything other than perpetuating their testosterone-laden image. By "protecting us," he is actually attempting to disguise the fact that he is weak and unable to even protecting himself. "

I put the bowl of cherry filling down and looked at the two girls who had entered the room. They were different from most that would come in here. I'm not going to lie; I wanted to shout, 'Get it, girl' at them, but then they started calling Tamaki weak. Which was something he was not. 

   " You're such a clever girl, Hinagiku. "

   " Don't you think that's a little harsh? Fine then, what do women like you want to hear? " Tamaki said, standing up from his spot on the floor. 

   ' Since when do you ask a woman that? '

I was very interested in this now and leaned against the wall and watched the scene unfold.

   " Maybe something like, 'I would never leave my lover alone.'" A new voice said.

There was another woman standing outside of the room, and Haruhi was standing with her. She continued reciting her lines while she spun Haruhi around and then kissed her hand. Not gonna lie; the lines she was saying were romantic and could win anyone over. I looked at all of the hosts, and I could see an expression on each of their faces that made me want to laugh.

   " Benibara, we thought you'd never show. What are we going to do with you? So tell us where you found this lovely young lady. "

Haruhi looked uncomfortable as they rubbed her skin and leaned closer to her face. I sighed before walking to the group. They didn't notice me until I coughed.

   " Excuse me, but my friend here seems to be uncomfortable. Could you let her go please? "

They didn't say anything, and their eyes stayed on me. I waved my hand in front of them, but they didn't look away. I started feeling a little uncomfortable, so I grabbed Haruhi's hand and pulled her out of their hands. 

   " Thanks. "

   " Don't mention it. "

I felt my shoulders being grabbed, and I looked up at the leader, Benibara. She looked down at me, and I could see the amazement in her eyes.

   " A true beauty. "

   " What? "

The other two girls came to my sides and grabbed each of my arms, snuggling into them. Benibara wrapped her arms around my neck and rested her cheek on the top of my head. I looked into the host room to see Tamaki start to make his way here.

   " Don't go touching my Y/n without asking my permission! "

He tried reaching for me, but Benibara punched him, and he fell back into the room. I could see a red mark forming on Tamaki's face.

   " She punched me! She's so violent! "

They let me go, but Benibara held on to my wrist as we walked into the room. I felt bad that Tamaki got punched, but there was nothing I could do. When we walked in, Kyoya explained what school they were from, and they took it from there to describe it more. I took the initiative to escape their backs as they started explaining who they were and their years. 

   " The Zuka Club! "

   ' I kind of like White Lilly League better. '

As the twins laughed at them and Renge started explaining, I walked to Tamaki, who was on the floor. He was staring at the wall of the door while he laid on his side. I sat on the floor and started running my hands through his blonde hair.

   " Are you okay? "

His head pulled up and he looked at me, his eyes were sad, but the sadness went away. He slid over to my lap and wrapped his arms around me, putting his head into my stomach. A small heat made its way to my face.

   " Let's just...stay like this for a minute. "

   " O-Okay. "

   ' I'm getting some small feelings...aren't I? '
