Chapter 8 – The Festival, To End it All

" Wow! Tamaki! You did a great job with decorating for the festival!"

"Why, thank you Haruhi. I only got the best materials to build the booths, stages, and everything."

"You went over the budget didn't you?"

"Uh….maybe?"

Glare

"Okay okay, I did, but it will be all worth it in the end! Trust me."

"…you mean when the twins have to confess?"

"Yup."

"And why would that be the best part? Wouldn't it be the games, the prizes, the rides, and or something like that?"

"Nope, just trust me, who Hikaru will pick will blow your mind."

"Yea well… Kaoru's probably pick a random girl, huh?."

"Yea…. No one special…"

"Not at all…it's kinda sad that no one is special to him."

"HELLO!!! WHAT ABOUT ME?!"

"Oh, hello Nikki."

"Hey."

"So as I was saying no one special, huh, Haruhi?"

"Nope."

"YOU GUYS ARE IDIOTS!!!!!"

--

School was over for everyone, and all the students were home. Except for our favorite Host Club, who was now helping to put up the finishing touches on everything for the festival. Except for Nikki, who for some reason was fuming and throwing random things at Tamaki, usually hitting him in the head or face.

Honey, of course, was in charge of helping to set up and cook all the food. And since everyone in the school was going to be there later that night, it was a lot of food. He was having the best time trying all the food, but Mori kept him off trying the desert table until later that night. If he had too much sweets before 9 he would never go to bed, but anything that had to do with sugar after 9, he would fall asleep like a baby.

Mori was almost done building the game booths. You could play games from catching you own lobster and grilling it with a private chef, to throwing a baseball and trying to knock over 6 milk cans and winning a giant bear. He built them all, with a little help from hired workers.

Haruhi was helping all the performers get ready for a show before the final announcement. The main point of the story was about how poor people perform, so Tamaki picked her to be the one tell the people how to perform. It pissed her off to no end, and she even got Nikki to throw one of the baseballs at his head…right in the back to knock him out!

Ishumo and Kyouya were working with a computer to get the big screen movies to play right. Surprisingly Ishumo was very good with a computer, good enough that he was able to help Kyouya with a few things.

Kaoru and Hikaru were no where to be seen. They were supposedly getting ready for the show, but really it was nothing to see. But…we will anyway…

--

Kaoru was sitting on a bench in the boy's locker room, still wearing his school uniform. His face and his hands and his leg twitching on occasion gave him the look of an emotional challenged teenager. Aren't we all? "What are we going to do?" he asked him brother, who was standing across from him.

Hikaru was leaning against the lockers with his arms crossed over his chest and his head down. But, he was wearing a white dress shirt, that was open, and a pair of black pants. "I don't know…how bout what Tamaki tells us?"

"Are you stupid or something?" Kaoru said, lifting his head and glaring at his brother. "If we do that something we go horribly wrong!"

Hikaru just shook his head and started buttoning his shirt. "Look, it might not. But for now, we have no choice. It's this, or disappointing the entire school on a stage." he said. And for effect he added, "or Nikki."

Kaoru blushed and hid his face in his hands. "Shut up." he muttered, but lifted his face again. "You know I'm gonna do it. Are you?"

Hikaru finished up his shirt and started pulling on his jacket. "Do what?" he asked.

Kaoru stood up, finally getting dressed. "Telling who we like in front of everyone. I'm going to say Nikki, are you going to say who?"

Hikaru finished putting on his jacket and left the locker room without another word.

--

Outside, people were starting to fill in. Many were already playing games and getting things to eat, and others were talking amongst themselves in the roads. All the students were in their usual uniforms, except for the Host Club.

The guys were wearing Black robes, very formal and fitting.

Nikki and Haruhi were wearing Pink robes with green petals around them. Haruhi was embarrassed since Kyouya had bought hers, and Nikki was irritated that she kept falling and stumbling every once in a while.

Honey, Ishumo, Nikki, Mori, and Kyouya were in charge of different booths that fit their personalities pretty well.

Honey – Cake

Ishumo – Sports

Kyouya – Tech

Mori - …watching Honey…

Nikki – Cookies…she was vicious in protecting them…wasn't selling much actually.

Tamaki and Haruhi were putting the finishing touches on the show that they would be putting on. The performers were getting ready and it would be starting soon.

"TAMAKI WHERE'S THE GLITTER?!" Haruhi shouted, frustrated that Tamaki had expected her to do everything for him. Stupid rich people…

Tamaki just grinned sheepishly at her, scratching the back of his head where he was hit the that baseball. "I…I thought you had it…H-Haruhi-chan." he muttered, barely audible .

But, Haruhi did hear him, and she threw a heel at his face to prove it.

Haruhi clapped her hands behind the stage and gathered the crew attention. "Alright people. It's opening night! We have worked hard on this number for a full 3 hours!! Now lets go rock them!!!"

The crowd cheered and Haruhi peered through the curtain get see how many people would be watching. It looked as if the entire school was there. They were sitting in the chairs, on the grass in front of the school, on the roof of the school, and on each other. She took a long, hard gulp and turned back to the actors. "Ready?" she asked, in a certain shaky voice.

"HAI!" they all replied. Haruhi ran off the stage and nodded to the curtain boy. Said boy pulled the tight rope, and the show began!

The girls started to walk out onto the stage, but the one of the end of the line tripped and fell forward. After that, it was the domino effect. One after another the girls toppled over with a loud OOF, until the last girl was down and they all had swirls in their eyes.

Haruhi face palmed and the curtain boy quickly pulled the rope again, closing the curtain. "Well that sucked." she said, keeping her face in her hands.

Suddenly, Tamaki stepped out onto the stage with a microphone and grinned at the crowd. "And that is why shows by poor people suck! They are horribly put together by other poor people!" he announced.

Backstage, Haruhi's headed whipped up and she glared at him as soon as he stepped through the curtain. "You planned this?" she asked, he voice dangerously low.

Tamaki simply grinned at her and nodded. "Yup, I knew this would happen because your directing skills are that of a monkey with a banana."

"NIKKI!!!!!!"

"Oh crap…" Tamaki tried running, but before he could take more than a few steps, a certain hyper girl and holding onto the collar of his shirt.

Nikki grinned and dragged the now crying boy back over to Haruhi. "Did you want something?" she asked, grinning at evilly at Tamaki.

Haruhi just shook her head and pointed to him. "Him," she used her thumb and pointed over her shoulder, "out of here!!!!"

--

For the next ten minutes all anyone near the stage could hear was a young mans hurtful cries and what sounded like horribly evil laughing from a teenage girl.

--

Now…truly the festival was a hit. The games were so popular that Mori and Ishumo were practically running around to be able to replace the prizes that were being won. Honey had to put the chefs on double time with a bonus to make them make all the food that was being demanded. But, the Host Club had suspected this. They had a plan to make the crowd calm down so that they would be able to get everything ready. Kyouya was already preparing for the Pre-Grand finale.

And as planned, Honey stood up on Mori's shoulders. Holding up a big sign that said, 'look up'.

When the crowd did, fire works went off in the sky. The younger children squealed with delight. The couples held each other and watched the fire in the sky burn. Even the Host Club was amazed and couldn't help but to look up and 'Ohhhhhh' and 'awwwwwww' at the sky.

When the fifteen minute display was over, you couldn't hear Tamaki's (hurt) voice over the intercom through the following silence. "Attention! For the Grand Finale, the Hitachiin Twins will confess how they feel about to the people they like. If you would like to hear what they have to say, please report to the stage."

The crowded cheered loudly and everyone there soon started walking toward the newly clean stage.

--

Again, Kaoru and Hikaru were in the locker room both completely ready. They each wore a black and white tux. Except, Kaoru had on a bow tie and Hikaru had on a regular tie. Kaoru turned toward his brother, who was once again having doubts. "You ready?"

Hikaru just looked down, not listening to a word his brother was saying.

Tamaki opened the door and peered through, grinning. "You guys ready?"

Kaoru raised his brows at him. "Yea," he pointed directly at Tamaki's right eye, "What's with the black eye?"

All color seemed to drain from Tamaki's face and he was rooted in his place. "I'd rather not talk about it…"

Both twins then turned their head and stood straight up. "We're ready!" they said in unison, making Tamaki grin again. "Then, let's go wow them!" he said, opening the door completely and stepping out of the way, watching as the twins pasted by him.

--

Lights, camera, action.

The stage audience was once again filled to it's fullest.

And Tamaki and his black eye were once again standing on the stage with a microphone. "Good evening, Ladies and Gentleman!" he announced. The crowed cheered and screamed in response to his words. "Now, for the final part of the festival, we give you…THE HITACHIIN TWINS!!!"

The curtains on the stage pulled back, relieving the twins. They both had on their stunning suits, their trade mark grins and back to back poses. Tamaki grinned at them from ear to ear, and continued, "Now, as the Grand Finale, both of them will now confess who they actually like…or love…to that special person!!!"

The crowd went absolutely wild. Cheering, Screaming. Yelling. Clapping. It was the greatest sound that either of the twin had ever heard. And it was all for them. Colorful light blinked around them and above their heads; this only added to the crowds excitement.

Tamaki smirked as he handed the microphone to Kaoru and said, "Now, ITS KAORU'S TURN!"

Dead silence hit the crowd. A spot light was dropped on Kaoru and all the other lights went black. To Kaoru, it looked like everything was gone except him and his brother, who he couldn't even see him. He was all alone. "Uh…" was all he could say. He heard Tamaki and Hikaru chuckling near him, but the endless dark ness made it almost impossible for him to see from the blinding light above.

"Say something!" a voice from the crowded cried, easily a girl. A girl that was desperate for his answer.

Kaoru pulled at his collar and laughed nervously. "Y-You want to know w-who I like?" he sputtered, he arm dropping numbly by his side.

"Duh."

"Come on."

"PICK ME!"

Cries continued to flow forth from the still invisible crowd.

Kaoru still wouldn't budge. Than , Tamaki stepped into the spotlight from behind his, raised his hand, an gave Kaoru a hard slap to the back. It was heard 'round the crowd, and as soon as it's echo faded. All anyone could here was a small squeak.

"WHAT?!"

Kaoru was the squeak, so he tried again, whispering, "Nihm."

Tamaki gave him another loud, hard slap. "NIKKI!"

The deafening silence was then replaced by a roaring cheer again. Another spot light was shot to the back of the stage, where, a very red, and nervous Nikki was pushed out from behind the curtain.

Nikki nearly fell at first, but she coon straightened up and grined crookedly at Kaoru, "Hi."

Tamaki, pulling out another microphone from what seemed like thin air, said, "Nikki. Do you accept this young mans love for your own?"

Dead silence.

"………..Yea." Nikki said, scratching the back of her head sheepishly.

The entire crowd stayed silent for a while, no one daring to move and provoke anyone on stage.

"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR YOU IDIOT?! KISS HER!!!"

And….he did.

Nikki ran into Kaoru awaiting arms and they kissed as passionately as they had the entire time they were 'together'. When Kaoru pulled away, Nikki went limp. "She fainted…" he said, disappointed. But on her face, was that stupid goofy grin she always seems to have on her face when she was thinking something…different…

Tamaki smirked further and raised the mic to his mouth once again. "And now, Hikaru."

The one spotlight on Kaoru and Nikki vanished, and another one (probably the same) opened up onto Hikaru, who wasn't standing that far away from his brother. In his hand was a mic, and a rose. "Now, as you all know me and my brother are indeed very different. I am not going to take such a long time to make you guys wait so long for your answer.

"I just want you guys to know, (that im sorry T.T) that I'm just going to tell you upfront. I like…….non other than…..the one and onl-"

"Your stalling."

Hikaru glared into the crowd. "Haruhi."

Haruhi was then pushed out from behind the curtain and stumbled forward onto the middle of the stage, only to trip on her own feet and fall forward.

Hikaru smirked at her.

Tamaki smirked with him and helped Haruhi up to her feet again, ignoring that she was completely red, head to toe, with blush for Hikaru. "Now, Haruhi, do you accept and return this young man's love?"

"Hold on there Tamaki, not so fast." A threatening voiced called from the other side of the stage.

A red spotlight was flicked on and moved around until it found it's target. Kyouya was standing on the other side of Tamaki and Haruhi and he was grinning a dashing grin that would make any girl swoon if it was directed directly at them.

"Kyouya…" Hikaru growled between his teeth. Though, he was still wondering why Kyouya wanted to make it stop. Oh wait…….Oh crap…

Kyouya extended a hand towards Haruhi, beckoning her to go with him. "Yes Haruhi, do you return his young man's love? Or would you rather have mine?"

From somewhere in the crowd, a drum roll started. It was soft at first, but picked up in intensity when Haruhi seemed to be thinking.

Haruhi kept looking between the two boys on either side of her. Kyouya, she knew, had indeed liked her more a while. He just never had a real chance to get to her since she was always so busy. Hikaru, she knew, was all new in this. "Uh…"

"Not again with the stalling..."

Haruhi glared into the crowd much like Hikaru had done. "Hikaru. I only want Hikaru.....im so sorry Kyouya. I do like you, but as a brother... No not brother, more than that. But hikaru still wins..."

This time, a loud rally from the crowd erupted. Hikaru smirked, the spotlight on Kyouya shut off, and Tamaki stepped away from Haruhi.

All that was left were the two new found lovers.

And another deafening silence.

"Are you BOTH idiots!! Must happen with twins, damnit, KISS HER TOO!!"

Both Haruhi and Hikaru ran toward each other, pulling each other close and smiling like no tomorrow. "I though you didn't like me." Haruhi said, blinking back tears that were threatening to spill.

"I never said I didn't like you, I just never wanted to bother you. You had such a debt, and Tamaki said we couldn't help you out."

"He. Said. What?!"

Hikaru chuckled once again. "Come on, let's get out of h-"

"WHAT DID I SAY?!?!? KISS HER!"

Both glared into the crowd, turned back to each other with a violent blush, and pressed their lips together in a slow, yet passionate kiss.

Me: I HATE MYSELF

Kyouya: …That's new…

Me: Shut up, I've been so busy that I forgot to update this!! I THOUGHT I DID LIKE TWO WEEKS AGO WHEN I TOLD LOVA I WOULD!!! ….But

Haruhi: But you wrote it and didn't post it

Me: ……Maybe……and then i had to wait cause the servers were down...so i couldn't even apologize or tell Lova anything anyway...

Hikaru: SUKI

Me: Im sorry im sorry…and to make up for it…I will now dive into shark infested waters caovers in steak sauce as my sorry…

Kyouya: No Suki.

Me: …………hang myself?

Haruhi: -face palms- NO SUKI

Me: How about piss off a bunch of gun holding thugs at a bar?

Hikaru: …All of these things would kill you!

Me: BUT IM SO SORRY PEOPLE!!!

Hikaru: -shakes head- Please review….
