Ok, so, I got into OHHC a while ago, and then I finished it and moved onto the fics. 'Cause that's how I work. But then, I tried to find TamakiHaruhi fics and couldn't find any, so I was sad, 'cause all I could find were kyouyatamaki. So then I said "Fine, that's soo not how the anime ends, so I'm gonna go back and read good old dnangel darkdai fics." And then I realized how incredibly stupid I was being and decided to read a TK fic, and LOVED it. So, here's my own, just to contribute to the happiness. Really, really slight TamakiKyouya, but I wanted Tamaki to have a puppy.
The everyday setting with the Ouran High School Host Club could be described again and again. Yet, everytime the setting would be slightly different, and to be frank, Haruhi did not think that the Host Club setting could be anywhere near "everyday," in the sense that nothing ever seemed ordinary once she walked through those big doors.
Today was just a meeting, and so there were no customers to deal with, but it really should be known that Haruhi found days when there were no customers to please the worst, just as any normal person would, if there were in fact normal people in the Host Club.
Tamaki had no customers to flirt with and for that reason got to be a drama king to the full extent, much to Haruhi's disappointment. The only pair who seemed unaffected would have to be Hunny and Mori, simply for the reson that Mori could usually pass for a statue while Hunny always had the same desire for sweets. Kyouya did nothing to dissuade Host Club members from acting up when there were no customers to show off for, and the twins often got bored when they had nothing else to do.
Oh, the twins. They were of course, in a corner whispering to eachother and would no doubt have a horrible, day-ruining plan fully ready any momen-
"Tamaaaaki..." the twins chorused in union, arms over eachother's shoulders.
No, they had already formulated their horrible, day-ruining plan. No stopping them now, Haruhi realized before sighing and sitting down, waiting to see exactly what sort of messed up game the twins had now.
Tamaki walked over to where the twins were and was soon sucked into the conspiring circle. Whispers could be heard as the twins fed what had to be lies into Tamaki's head, and Haruhi groaned, now realizing that this particular plan would no doubt soon involve a dramatic speech about how 'unscrupulous' the twins were. Much to Haruhi's surprise, Tamaki soon left the circle without any signs of woe.
"Okaasaan..." Tamaki said, drawing out each sound, making the word much longer than it really needed to be. He pushed his two pointer fingers together and softly tapped the front of his shoe on the ground in what Haruhi assumed was supposed to be an innocent gesture.
"...what?" Kyouya replied with a sigh, looking up from his laptop.
"Well..." a slide across the floor, "I was thinking..." another fidget with the fingers.
"Maybe we should..." a slightly hopeful look...
"...Get a PUPPY!" An overly dramatic flourish that made Haruhi sick to the stomach. She couldn't believe that Tamaki had actually said such a stupid thing, and she couldn't see how the twins thought of this. Honestly, who would be dumb enough to ask KYOUYA for a PUPPY.
The twins began to laugh secretly with one another, and Tamaki spun around with a confused look on his face. The full effects of the plan then kicked in because Hunny must have been on the "Stupid enough to think that the Host Club would get a dog" list.
"Yeah, yeah! That's a really good idea! A puppy, a puppy!" Hunny began to hop up and down, and Mori was obviously trying to find a way to keep Hunny from bursting into tears when the Host Club didn't get a dog.
The twins were clutching their sides and bent over from laughing at Tamaki who was now just beginning to grasp that this had been one of the Hitachiin Brothers' marvelous plans. Tamaki turned back around to see a bored looking Kyouya who was obviously not finding this near as amusing as the twins and definitely not worth losing time to work on his laptop.
"Seriously. A puppy." Kyouya stated in complete monotone, and Haruhi vaguely wondered how Kyouya would get back at the twins for such a stupid, stupid plan.
This plan wasn't exactly one of their best, either. It was obviously going to end at this point, Tamaki would go mope, Kyouya wuold go back to work, and Mori would give Hunny sweets to distract him. Why would they waste their time on something so pointless? Haruhi simply decided to accept the fact that she wouldn't have to deal with a dramatic plan that caused chaos to ensue.
Tamaki now let the full implications of this being a ridiculous plan hit him. His eyes began to water, and Haruhi just waited for him to drag himself over to her to complain about the unfairness of not having a puppy. He began to trudge in her direction, but just as she opened her mouth to start talking about how ridiculous it was to ask Kyouya for a puppy, he simply walked past her, and sat back down in the chair he had been in before.
Oddly enough, Tamaki just sat there, and in a very normal way, too. He wasn't growing mushrooms or anything. Hunny actually seemed to be making a bigger scene than Tamaki was.
"But I want a puppy!" Hunny whined.
"Hunny, we can't get a-" Haruhi began, only to be cut off.
"But a puppy!!" He quickly cut in, almost as insistent as he would've been if someone said he couldn't get a cake.
"Hunny, I told you, we can't get a puppy." She stated calmly.
"...but, I want a-"
"Be quiet." Haruhi snapped her head around to see Tamaki sitting at his table, stil in the same position and everything.
"But Tamakiiii! A puppy would be so fun! I would share my cake with it, and..."
"Fine. We can get a puppy. BUT it is not staying at my house under any circumstances." Kyouya said in a voice that would have convinced anyone that he was uninterested in the topic, but his eyes, in Haruhi's opinion, gave him away. He was looking at Tamaki with concern apparent in his eyes, and Haruhi couldn't help but smile just a bit.
Tamaki looked up to Kyouya, his eyes still shining from his previous tears, but when a soft smile crossed his face, Kyouya visibly relaxed. Suddenly Tamaki was back to his old self, and he had dramatically walked across the room to Kyouya again.
"Okaasan can be so nice! We can really get a puppy?" Tamaki was gesturing dramatically as he went on and on and ON about how nice mommy was being. Kyouya of course, was denying all the comments on his kindness, saying that a puppy would help with business. Haruhi was vaguely aware of several points about how customers would love a dog, and several more comments about Kyouya's kindness before some of Tamaki's word's finally registered in her mind.
"...and I always wanted a dog, and now we can get one! Mom always said she liked dogs, what do you think the best dog will be...?"
Haruhi tuned him out again and observed Kyouya's expression. It was definitely somewhat softer now, and she could tell that he would probably continue to tell everyone that the puppy was a way to make money, but really, Kyouya would do anything for Tamaki, wouldn't he?
"Kyouya, you can name it." Tamaki said, his voice now more serious than before.
"Really, I don't care. Name it anything you want."
"Yeah, yeah, Tamaki's right, Kyouya, you should name it!"
Mori simply 'hmm'ed his approval of Kyouya naming it, and for a second, Haruhi swore she saw actual smiles on the faces of the twins. She chuckled to herself and wondered what their real plan had been trying to achieve. Sometimes, they weren't so bad, but then again, a puppy wasn't exactly going to be the easiest thing to take care of...and Tamaki would want her to take care of it in a "commoner" fashion...
She looked up at the twins again to see their typical mocking grin back on their faces, and she groaned as she realized that they really always found a way to make somebody miserable, but then there was Kyouya and Tamaki...
When Tamaki was happy, Koyuya seemed somewhat less rigid. Kyouya usually worked for Tamaki's well-being, and really, if anyone could handle Tamaki, it would be Kyouya. But still, did the twins really need to get the Host Club a puppy?
It sorta sucked, yeah, but I just wanted something out there. I know it wasn't very TK. It was more like, "sit upside down and read it backwards and then if you wait for subliminal messages, it'll be TamakiKyouya." Oh well, lol!
