-----------------------------------

"Miya is going to kill me. Miya is going to kill me." Tamaki whispers to himself as we snuck around the estate. Trying to find Miya's room.

"Oh. I think it's that one up ahead." I say and we briskly walk towards it.

"Oh my god. Oh my god."

"Shhh..." I quietly open the door and peek my head in.

The room was quite large. The walls were painted a maroon red, like Miya's hair and all the furniture inside was way more modern than the other rooms.

A small figure was under the covers and I carefully pulled it down. "Oh."

"Haruhi?" Haruhi was fast asleep. I carefully pulled the sheets back up to her shoulders and moved her hair out of her face. I smile at her and turn around. "She's not here." I say to Tamaki and he just stares at me, his cheeks were sightly pink.

"O-oh then where could she be?" He looks around.

"I don't know but, it seems like she slept here before."

"How do you know." Tamaki looks at me in awe.

I point to the space next to Haruhi. "The covers were opened on this side. She must've gotten up at some point." I shrug.

"Hikmmhms... hhmom..." Haruhi mumbles.

"Pardon?"

I move the sheets away from her mouth. "Hikaru's... room..." She repeats. "...Zzzz"

I looked at Tamaki. "Let's go!"

I grab his arm and run out of the room.

"Hikaru's room huh? Well well... If I found out they..." Tamaki rubs his hands and smiles psychotically.

"Uhm..." He looks up and turns away. "This one." We stood in front of the door and Tamaki opens it. We both peek our heads in and I can see her maroon red hair sprawled on the bed.

Me and Tamaki look at each other and giggle. We snuck up to the bed.

"Eek!" Tamaki squeals inwards as he covers his mouth. My mouth made an O shape as we both stare at the couple.

Miya's top half was bare, Hikaru's the same. Their bottom half was covered by the blankets. I don't even want to know what could be under those covers. They snuggled... tight.

"W-w-w-w-" Tamaki shakes in rage.

"Calm down. It's just natural." I pat his back and he takes a deep breath.

"I can't believe this... My little girl..." Tamaki looks like he was about cry.

"At least they used protection...?" I scrunch up my face as I look at the ripped open condom packet on the bed side table.

Tamaki whimpers at the sight.

"Let's just... Do what we came here to do and leave before they wake up, kay?" I peer at his face and he nods stiffly.

I snuck to Hikaru's side of the bed and Tamaki sneaks up to Miya's side. I look at him and nod. I start to think about what to draw on Hikaru's face. "Oh..." I giggle and start drawing.

"I'll take a picture now." Tamaki takes out his phone and tries to surpress a laugh as his phone makes a clicking noise and we both quickly exit the room.

"Hahahaha!" We both burst out laughing as we run back to 'our' room.

"That was the best!" I fist pump the air and Tamaki smiles.

"Was that your first time pranking?" Tamaki asks.

"Y-yeah. It was great." I giggle and lay back down on the bed. Tamaki stays standing up and gazes at me as I giggle.

"Oh uh..." I sat back up and purse my lips. "Let's go get some breakfast." I stand up and head towards the door.

"Ana-hime..." I stop and turn around.

"Tamaki...?" I tilt my head.

"Oh uh... it's nothing..." He shakes his head.

"Then come on." I open the door and gesture for him to come out. He obediently steps out and we both made our way to the dining room. "I wonder what their reactions would be when they get up."

Tamaki chuckles. "Thanks..."

"Huh? For what?" I look up at im.

"For getting those things out of my face and... the prank.. thing... thing..." He says, flustered.

"You said thing twice." I giggle.

"Uh uh oh yeah... Oh yeah..." I giggle again.

I take a seat and Tamaki sits next to me. "I'm not hungry so..." I pick my nails.

"Oh okay... then... Is it okay if..." He trails off.

"Yeah! Yeah! Sure!" I say and he smiles.

We chat about the new host club themes Tamaki was planning on and about Halloween, which was coming soon apparently.

My brother's favourite day of the year. The time where 'foolish humans' as he would say, celebrate the dead. Lucifer has brainwashed me into thinking the same thing. I mean, who would celebrate death? Humans can be stupid at times.

Even though we may be talking about something I don't like, I enjoy talking to him. I feel comfortable. This is actually the first time we had a normal conversation together.

"Hehe, you're going to be Zorro this year?" I giggle as I gaze at him.

I'm not sure what a Zorro is but... Okay...

I sigh dreamily.

"Yup! Oh! You should be Elena!" Tamaki says excitedly.

"Elena?" I tilt my head.

"Oh. Elena is the dame but she can fight too. We have to watch the movie sometime... Together." He looks down.

"I'd love to." I give him a smile and then look away.

"Oh! Um... Erm... What about tonight then? My place." He smiles sheepishly.

"Okay..." I nod and he beams.

"Cool! Cool!" He pats his knees and I just stare at his face.

"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

-------------------------

"Pfft...." I purse my lips and stare down at my knee.

"Ana-hime..." Tamaki whines and then covers his mouth to suppress a laugh.

"Ahahahahaha!" Kaoru slaps his thighs and clings onto Hikaru who was staring at Tamaki like a statue. "You love Tamaki huh?! Hahahahahah!" Kaoru falls back, laughing.

"I didn't know Tamaki could 'prank'" Kyoya chuckles.

"It wasn't just me!" Tamaki holds his hand up.

"THEN WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS?!" Miya points to writing on her forehead. "IT CLEARLY SAYS 'TAMAKI WAS HERE!'" She grabs Hikaru's face. "'I LOVE TAMAKI'?! I DON'T REALLY LIKE YOU AT THE MOMENT!" Miya punches the table. "WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU USE?! I CAN'T TAKE THIS SHIT OFF!" Miya violently tries to rub the liner off.

"Calm down." Kyoya rolls his eyes.

"Good one Tama-chan!" Honey gives Tamaki a thumbs.

"Ana-hime helped!" Tamaki points to me.

"I would not do such a thing!" I hold my hand up on defence.

"Oh it is on." Hikaru and Miya say at the same time and a dark aura surrounds them.

"Oh my god please! Help me!" Tamaki shakes my shoulder as I laugh.

He then stops and stares at me, his cheeks turning redder and redder.

I slowly stop and look away from him. I see Miya and Hikaru look at each other and then smirk.

"You guys are in trouble." Kaoru says as he emerges from under the table. "We're not playing. This is a couples thing." Kaoru says and skips out of the kitchen with the two.

Couples?!

"Me and Takashi have to go home now. You guys have fun though." Honey smiles and stands up. I give him and Mori a hug. Mori picks him up and leaves.

I turn to Hikaru and Miya who were smirking at Tamaki. I look at Tamaki and see him glaring at the door Mori and Honey just exited through.

"Well." Miya and Hikaru stand up and they wrap their arms around each others waist. "We're a team aren't we, baby?" Miya looks up at Hikaru half lovingly and half mischievously.

"We are, baby. Cause we're a couple." Hikaru looks up at us and smirks.

"Eviiiiiil!" Tamaki points at them and hides behind me.

"We're going to win! Aren't we Tamaki?!" I cross my arms.

"But we're not a couple--"

"After your little 'prank' this morning!" Miya points to her and Hikaru's forehead. "You're considered... 'A pranking couple'." Miya's smirk grows.

"Don't mess with the king and queen of pranks." Hikaru says and they both walk out.

I turn around to see Tamaki biting his nails. "We're dead. We're dead. We're dead and we're not going to be able to watch Zorro together tonight and--" He stops and keeps his head hung low. "I-I-I-I mean..."

"We're going to watch Zorro together tonight. Don't worry." I giggle as I ruffle his hair. I see the tips of his ears redden and I take my hand away.

"We can do it!" Tamaki fist pumps the air and grabs my hand.

------------------------------

"Maybe we should just stay in here for the rest of the day." Tamaki grabs my wrist as I walk towards the door.

I blush and look down. "We can't do that! Who knows what they'll do out there if we stay in here?"

"We could jump out from the balcony." He points to the balcony.

I laugh. "You're so silly." I shake my head and he lets go. "Come on." I take his hand and cautiously open the door. I peek my head out and look around. Tamaki then pulls me back and peeks his head out.

"Just in case. I don't want them ruining your hair or anything..."

"Oh..." I nod and play with my hair. I only do that when i'm nervous, trying to be cute or... flirting?!

I throw my hair back and pout.

"It's clear." Tamaki opens the door and steps out.

Creak...

SPLOOSH!

I open my eyes and see Tamaki covered in something green.

"Hahahaha!" Miya and Hikaru high five and run down the hallway.

"Ta...ma...ki..." I cover my mouth and laugh.

He smiles sheepishly and I grab his hand. "You'll get your clothes dirty." He yanks his hand away but I grab it again.

"I'm okay with that." I bring him into the bathroom and let go of his hand. He stares at me. "Oh uhm!" I turn around and hear him chuckle. "I'll get you a towel." I briskly walk over to the drawer and get out two towels. When I turn around I see Tamaki taking his shirt off.

"Ana-hime?" Tamaki tilts his head. I realised I was staring at him and covered my face with the towels.

I keep my eyes closed as I feel him take the towel from me.

"Thank you." He whispers in my ear and when I open my eyes the door was already shut.

"Y-you're welcome." I let out a deep breath.

What the Helena was that?

------------------------------

"Ana-hime I--"

"I've got it Tamaki!" I glomp him from behind and show him my paper.

He places his hands on top of mine, which were around his neck and chuckles. "This would be great." He turns around and our noses touch.

"Uhm..." I squeak out and jump off of him. "Sorry!" I bow. "Sorry for jumping on you like that. I was just excited!"

"Oh uh uh... It's okay!" He makes me stand up straight and he starts walking towards he door. "Let's do this." He gives me the peace sign as he holds the paper up and I blush.

Cute...

"AHHHH!" Tamaki then falls down and winces.

"Gotcha bitch!" Miya jumps on Hikaru's back and they run off.

I gasp and without thinking I ran over to Tamaki. "Eeek!" I slid around.

"OOF!" I land on something and open my eyes.

"Oh my goodness! I'm sorry!" I try to get up but instead hit my forehead on Tamaki's because my hand slipped "Kyah!"

"Ouch." Tamaki opens his eyes and his face immediately turns red. He tries to sit up but falls back. "I'm sorry Ana-hime!" He was now on top of me.

"I-It's okay..." I stare up at him. "Now what?" We stare at each other and burst out laughing.

"We'll have to help each other out." Tamaki takes my hand and slowly stands up. I slowly stand up as well and squeeze Tamaki's hand harder as I slid a bit.

"I think we're-- Ah!" I fall forward and grab onto Tamaki.

"Are you okay?!" I look up and our lips almost touch.

"Eek!" I cling onto him again as I struggle to stand. My foot kept slipping and it looked as if I was humping him as I grab a fistful of his shirt and bury my face in his chest. I shut my eyes in embarrassment.

I then felt my self being lifted up and I open my eyes. Tamaki smiles at me lovingly and I look away.

I bet my face is so red right now!

I close my eyes and hear him chuckle. "It's okay now." I open my eyes and he gently lets me down.

"T-T-Thank you!" I bow my head and stare down at the ground.

"I-It's okay... What do you think that was?"

I look up at his handsome face as he rubs the back of his neck and looks at the ground.

"I-I don't know but it was something slippery." I shrug and bite my bottom lip.

"Let's get them back Ana-hime!" Tamaki grins and I nod.

"O-Okay!" I beam.

----------------------------------

"This'll work! I watched a video of it whilst you were in the shower." I say as I dip the onion into toffee.

"Good. Miya's a sucker for sweets. She loves candy apple." Tamaki laughs.

"Great." I then gaze at him as he licks the spoon.

81 Ana.

I look away and continue.

"Hah!" Tamaki suddenly blurts out and I jump up. "Sorry... I just... Just... Just thought that we look... Look like a... Married couple cooking... Together..." He says and looks down.

My eyes widen and I stare at the toffee.

"Oh..."

"Sorry! I didn't mean to make you feel awkward or..." He gulps.

"It's fine! We actually do kinda look... Like a married couple cooking together." I force a giggle and he lets out a relieved sigh.

I'm going to take your soul... Why are you doing this... Why are you so kind... Hate me... Hate me... Why can't I hate you?

"Okay! It's ready!"

I take the candy 'apple' out of the fridge and we giggle. "I'll call Miya and Hikaru!" Tamaki throws his apron and runs out.

I let out a deep breath and put the candy apple down. "Is that all miss Lucretia?" A maid says and I shake my head.

"Yeah thank you so much." I bow and she bows lower.

"No! Thank you for letting me help you cook!" I stand back up.

"Any time." She beams and briskly walks out.

I let out another long breath and sat down.

Eighty one, Eighty one, Eighty one...

"Dammit!" I punch the table and pull my hair. "Why?" I hold in my tears and cover my mouth.

"TOFFEEE APPLEEEEEEE!" I hear Miya's footsteps and quickly stand up. "Are you serious?! Is this a prank?!" Miya says as she inspects the 'apple'.

"No. We've decided to claim you guys the winner and this is your prize." I smile.

"Bullshit..." Miya whispers. "Don't lie to me."

"U-uh we're not!" I shake my head and she arches a brow. She keeps her eyes on me and takes a big bite out of it.

"PUAH!! *cough cough*"

"Miya!" Hikaru frantically gets glass of water and hands it to her.

"Ahahahah yes!" Me and Tamaki high five.

"I fuckin... Knew it." Miya shakes her head and throws the candy apple. "You better watch your backs!" Miya storms off, Hikaru following closely behind.

"We did it!" Tamaki claps.

"Yup! What time is it?" I look around for a clock.

"Woah. 5pm already. Should we go?" Tamaki asks me.

"Yeah. Before those two send us to the hospital." I shrug.

"We're going home now." Tamaki says to Miya who was brushing Hikaru's hair.

"What? Why? It's still only 5pm."

"A-ah..." Tamaki looks at me.

"Ah! I have to go now! My br-father! Needs me back at home..." I say and Miya nods as she eyes us suspiciously.

"Well... Fine... But this isn't over!" She stands up and gives me a hug.

"Hahaha. Okay." I pat her back and she punches Tamaki's arm lightly.

"Bye daddy!" Miya waves.

"BYE MY DARLING DAUGHTER!" Tamaki waves as we exit the mansion.

"S-so..." I look down as we sat in the limousine.

"Uhm... Yup..." He blinks and starts shaking his right leg.

I wonder what's going to happen... It's just going to be... The two of us...
