"Hm…it seems that all the applications are in order, for you two and your families. If you like, you can walk around the school for a while. The second semester starts tomorrow so it might be strange coming in during the middle of the year. If you two walk around, maybe you will get used to the campus."

"Oh, all right…thank you sir."

The two girls sitting on the couch stand, quickly bow, and quietly leave the Chairman's room. Once they close the door, the brown haired girl sighs loudly.

"All right! We're in, official students…this should be interesting," she says with a grin, high fiving the dirty blonde girl next to her.

"I know! I'm so excited! I can't believe we're really here! It's going to be so much fun, Maya…"

Maya shrugs as she starts to walk down the hallway, "I guess…school is school…and since I don't really like school…"

"Are you kidding?! Don't say that!" the blonde haired girl runs over, "This is an opportunity of a lifetime! We're in the biggest, richest school in Japan!"

"But did you see the uniforms, Lily? I'm not really a yellow, frilly dress person…"

Lily laughs, hooking arms with Maya, "I know you're not…but it will look great on you, My, don't worry."

Maya rolls her eyes, "Well, are we gonna stand here or are we gonna check this place out?"

"Yes!" Lily chimes excitingly, "Let us go."

The two girls walk around the large school, gaping at the marble stairs, tall ceilings and large classrooms. They walk pass the classrooms and up the marble stairs to the third floor. They continue their tour until Maya stops in front of one of the doors. Lily turns around.

"Something wrong, Maya…"

"Let's go in here," Maya says, her eyes not leaving the sign. Lily walks over so she can see it.

"Music Room 3…I don't know, I don't think we're actually allowed to go in…just look…"

"Aw come on," Maya grins, "If someone sees us we can just say we got lost and wandered into here for sanctuary."

"Wow…you and your crafty lies, but seriously My, let's g-"

But she turns to see Maya already entering the room. Lily smiles and shakes her head.

"I guess one peek won't hurt…"

They walk into a large empty room with only a red cushioned couch in the middle. Maya sighs.

"Aw…what a let down! Where are the instruments?"

Lily shrugs, "I don't know…this is just kinda a weird…wait! What are you doing?!" Lily yells as she sees Maya going through the closet.

"I'm looking for a cello for you…I want to hear you play The Wind Forest."

"But you can't just start going through everything!"

"But I'm curious," she says bluntly as she continues opening doors. Lily sighs and starts looking around herself.

"I am too."

Maya grins, "Knew it."

Lily walks over to another large pair of doors and opens them, her eyes going wide.

"Uh…Maya?"

"Yeah," Maya responds, not turning around, "What's up?"

"Are you sure the sign said music room?"

"Yeah…why?"

"Come over here…"

Maya walks over to Lily and her eyes also go wide as she tries to hide in laughter.

"You're kidding, right?"

Behind the doors was a large closet full of all different kinds of costumes. Knights, Alice and Wonderland, Halloween costumes, swordsmen, and even French maid outfits with cat ears. Lily puts on a pair of ears.

"So…how do I look?"

Maya smiles, "Cute. Oh, hey…I think I found the music stuff!" She yells as she runs over to another closet. She opens it and grins.

"Yup, here it is…I'm surprised they even have this stuff…"

"Well, it is a music room after all, here, you get some stands, and I'll go see if they have a cello."

Maya's eyes go wide, "Oh…we're really gonna do it?"

"Of course! Why wouldn't we?" Lily grins.

Maya smiles, "All right."

Lily goes into the closet while Maya gets the stands. She finds a cello, since instruments that big are hard to miss. But she also looks for something else. When she finds it, she grins.

"Hey My, do you know The Wind Forest?"

"Yeah…but on the flute."

"Then just our luck," Lily laughs, holding up a flute case she found. Maya squeaks in joy before running over to her.

"This is going to sound great!"

They put their instruments together and, after testing if they work, started to play Lily's favorite song from My Neighbor Totoro.


"Geez boss, why are we here?"

"Yeah…it's Sunday, this is worthless…"

"Tama-chan wants to help us get ready for the second semester, right Kyo-chan?~"

"Yes, the cleaning men took all the furniture and such to clean the room but didn't have the decency to put it back."

"Which is why it's our job as men of the Host Club to prepare the club room for our guests tomorrow!"

"Yeah but couldn't we of just called the men and asked them to move the furniture back?"

"And where's Haruhi? Shouldn't she be here too..."

"Stop it, you shady twins! You want my daughter to lug all the heavy furniture around!! Do you want our cute princess to break her back!"

"Wait."

The boys turn when they hear Mori speak.

"What's wrong, Takashi?~"

"Music."

"Music?" Tamaki closes his eyes. "Oh, you're right, Mori-senpai. I hear it too."

"But why is there music?"

"Yeah, there shouldn't be any music…the school's empty…" The twins chime in.

Kyoya pushes up his glasses, "Well, the Chairman said there were going to be some new students in the building to tour today."

"Then let's go see what going on,~" Huni says, jumping on Mori's back.

"Yeah. Let's go."

The Host Club stops in front of their club room, knowing the music obviously comes from inside. Tamaki, Hikaru, and Kaoru open the door a crack and peek in. One girl, who was playing the cello, had shoulder length dirty blonde with blue eyes. The other girl on the flute had brown, wavy hair that flowed to the end of her neck. Her brown eyes stared at them for a moment but then went back down her music. The boys gaped in shock.

"Well…what should we do Kyoya?"

"We'll just wait for them to finish and politely ask them to leave…"

"Wow…that sounded good!"

"Yeah…I didn't even know you knew the song."

"I wanted to play it with you…but let's clean up and go…I have a bad feeling about something…"

Lily's eyebrows go up, "All right…"

They start to put their instruments back in their cases when the front door opens. The girls' heads shoot up to see six unusually attractive men standing in the doorway. The blonde man in front claps and looks up, his purple eyes shining.

"That sounded very nice, ladies."

"Oh, thanks…"

"I'm sorry! We shouldn't be in here…I saw it was a music room and wanted to see what it was like, I'm sorry," Maya says, bowing. Lily looks down at her and then back at the boys.

"I'm Lily and this is my friend Maya," Maya stands and steps behind Lily, looking at the floor, "We're new students here starting tomorrow. We're sorry for intruding, are you guys students too?" She asks, grinning.

"I'm Tamaki Suoh, a second year here, it's very nice to meet you ladies," he says, taking Lily's hand. Lily turns red but keeps her cool.

"Oh, hello then, senpai," she responds, slowly withdrawing her hand. "We're going to be first years tomorrow…"

"First years!"

"Hey that's our class!"

Two boys jump from behind Tamaki and stand in front of the girls. They lean forward and examine them intently.

"Wow…you two look a lot alike…"

"What are your names again?" The boys say in unison.

"Lily…and Maya."

"Does Maya talk?"

"Yeah, do you talk?"

"…Yes…"

"All right you too, stand down. I'm sorry ladies, but we have to move furniture around, so if you don't mind leaving the premises. Oh, and I'm second year, Kyoya Otori. It is very nice to meet you."

"Oh, well we can help with the furniture, right My?"

"Oh, yeah…we can help."


With Lily's persuasion and Tamaki's enthusiasm, the Host Club and the girls began bringing furniture back into the room.

"So, what kind of club are you?"

"We are the Ouran High School Host Club!"

"Okay…and what do you do?"

"We entertain beautiful ladies like yourselves and give them the ultimate fantasy! We of the Host Club try our best to make every customer happy!"

"Oh…okay, I think I get it," Lily says, "That's cool. My and I aren't in any clubs yet…"

"Oh, well you'll find something eventually… two beautiful ladies like yourselves " Tamaki responds, lifting a chair and shooting Maya and Lily a flirtatious wink.

On the other side of the room, Maya struggles lifting a table.

"Hey, are you sure you've got it?"

"Yeah, 'cause we can take it if you want…"

"No, no, it's all right… I got it…" Maya replies, trying to lift it over her head. But suddenly, the weight is lifted off of her as a tall, muscular man passes by.

"Oh…thank you, senpai."

"Ya."

"All right everyone, time to eat! Daddy made everyone a box lunch, just like our Haruhi!" Tamaki says as the club gathers around. Maya and Lily exchange a smirk at the realization that Tamaki just called himself daddy.

"But, um, I only have enough for the club…would you like me to get you something ladies? I think the cafeteria might be open…or if it isn't…"

"Oh, don't worry senpai. Um…we packed our own lunches," Maya says, walking over to Lily. Lily pulls two Bentos out of her bag.

"Oh, then that's perfect. Come over here ladies.~"

The group sits together at a table and begins to eat their lunches. Tamaki sighs, his curiosity finally getting to him.

"So, why have you ladies come to Ouran?"

"Well…"

"Apparently, Lilly, Maya and their families both came from America. Miss Maya's mother has been recruited to be an English teacher at Ouran Elementary School and Lilly's father has been offered a job at my family's hospital. So, Ouran is paying Maya's tuition here and my family is paying for Miss Lilly."

"You know, I find it really creepy that you know that," Hikaru says.

"Well…I guess he's not known as the Shadow King for nothing," Kaoru sighs.

"Sh-Shadow King?"

"Nothing to be worried about Princess, Kyoya is really a very kind person," Tamaki says to Maya, lifting some hair out of his face.

"Oh…uh…all right…Lily, um, pass me a cupcake."

"Cake! I want some cake! Hear that Takashi, they have cake! Please let me have some cake Lil-chan!~" Huni says, cutely and desperately. Lily laughs because she can't over how absolutely adorable Huni is.

"Sure…you can have a cupcake."

"Cupcake? Why would you eat it in a cup? Is the cup chocolate?~"

"You've never had a cupcake before, senpai? It's just like a mini cake; it fits right in your hand. See?" Lily says, passing Huni a cupcake. He stares at it in awe before taking it in his hands and eating it. As he chews, his eyes go wide.

"Wow…this is yummy! Really yummy! Try some Takashi!!~"

"Oh wow…well good thing I made a lot. Everyone can have one if they want."

Everyone but Kyoya has one cupcake and Huni has three.

"See? Isn't it yummy?~"

"Yeah…really good actually."

"I guess it's okay…"

"Yeah, our chief at home makes them better though…"

"Yeah. Tasty."

"Oh wow, I'm glad you guys like them," Lily says with a satisfied grin.

"Of course they do. Lily a great cook, her foods really tasty," Maya has softly with a smile. She thinks she sees someone's face turn red out of the corner of her eye but doesn't take note of it. Suddenly, Tamaki stands up and pounds on the table.

"Family meeting!!"

The boys quickly go and scrunch together in the corner, only Kyoya and Mori standing up. The girls stare at them in confusion. For a moment, only Tamaki's whispering could be heard.

"Yes! I want more yummy treats!~"

"I guess so…and besides…"

"That one girl looks like a fun toy."

"And I suppose it would cut the expenses of ordering food and our customers might appreciate a home-cooked meal."

"Yeah."

"Yay~ Yummy treats!~"

"All right then it's decided!" Tamaki stands up and points at the girls. "From this day forward you two are now the official chiefs of the Host Club!"

"Wh-what?!"

"W-wow…really?! Hear that Maya?! We're part of a club already! This is gonna be great!"

"Oh, y-yeah."

"All right then, we'll see you ladies at school tomorrow.~"

"Yeah. Tomorrow."

"Enjoy your first day at Ouran."

"Make sure you're on time."

"And who knows…"

"Maybe, we'll be in the same class…"

"Yeah, definitely," Lily smiles again.

"All right…BYE MAYA!" the twins run up to Maya and stare her in the face. Maya gulps.

"Y-yeah…bye…"

And the Host Club leaves the room.

"Wow…see My, isn't this great?! This is great! We've made so many friends already! Not to mention how incredibly nice and cute they all are."

Maya was worried about the current situation, but when she saw Lily's sheer joy, did not want to voice her trouble.

"Yup, new friends…this is going to be fun! Except one thing…"

"Hm…what's wrong?"

"Uh…I can't bake."
