The Host Club today was doing something a bit different from what they usually do. Rather than having their activities inside music room three, they were outside in the garden of Ouran Academy.

"Welcome, ladies!" The hosts ushered in the guests once the double doors opened to the enclosed area of the garden.

The Host Club was dressed as if they were going to have a garden tea party, which was their intention. Hikaru, Kaoru, Tamaki, and Kyoya were cosplaying as café waiters while Honey, Mori, Haruhi, and Y/n were wearing yukatas.

Y/n and Haruhi were sitting with Mori, Honey, and their two female guests. They all watched as Honey mixed the matcha green tea with a focused expression.

The dilemma was that Honey was blending the green tea too much and too roughly which led to him obviously over mixing it.

Y/n and Haruhi glanced at each other from the corner of their eye, sharing an insightful look, and thinking the same, exact thing. 'Should we say something to him?'

"Mitsukuni..." Mori began in his deep tone, moving his head beside Honey's. "You overdid it." His words made Honey stop whisking the brew.

Y/n's eyes widened. 'He told him!' The three other girls looked at Honey with anticipated eyes as they waited for the short boys reaction.

Honey lifted up the small mixing wand and looked down into the bowl. All that was left in the bowl was a splash of green tea, an amount that two people couldn't drink. Not even that would satisfy one person.

Honey let out a quiet whimper as his eyes began to tear, he moved his hand up to his mouth to keep his oncoming cries silent.

"Honey, I'll take it! It looks so yummy!" One of the girls with dark, chestnut brown hair said and drank some of the tea from the bowl.

"It's just the right amount for both of us!" The other girl said. "Anymore would be too much! How did you know? You never cease to amaze me!"

"Really?" Honey changed his disenchanted interpretation to an upbeat smile.

Y/n and Haruhi both let out a hushed sigh. They stood up from the blanket they were sitting on and excused themselves. The two sisters walked away from Honey, Mori, and their two guests.

The Fujioka siblings stopped walking and looked up at the beautiful cherry blossoms that were blowing through the light breeze of the wind, holding each others hand. They closed their eyes and inhaled the fresh air.

"Haruhi. Y/n."

The two girls turned their heads to the side to see Tamaki behind them, his back facing them with one of his hands resting on his hips. "How're you doing? Are you both having a good time?"

"Tamaki-Senpai..." Haruhi recognized with an easeful tone.

"The flower-viewing reception is going over quite well." He turned to face the Fujioka sisters with a faint smirk. "But even so, it's rather daunting to spend more time being admired than doing the admiring."

Y/n and Haruhi sweat drop. "Oh, wow, Senpai, you're blooming in more ways than one." Haruhi stated sarcastically, making Y/n nod along with a hum.

"You noticed!" He pointed his index finger at the two girls. "Yes, today my beauty is quite splendorous. I'm in full bloom! I bet you'll fall for me soon." The blond haired, second year student winked at Haruhi.

"Uhh..." Y/n let out awkwardly, leaning her body back a bit.

"So, Haruhi, Y/n, have you decided your elective courses for this term?" The twins questioned, appearing near the two sisters, and pulling them close to them.

"How about conversational French?" Kaoru suggested, holding two sheets of paper, reading off the courses from one of them.

"We're not sure." Y/n replied in an uncertain tone. Her, Haruhi, and the twins were facing their backs towards Tamaki.

"I think the four of us should take it together. It makes perfect sense." Hikaru motivated.

The twins glanced back at Tamaki with devilish definitions. "We are in the same class."

Tamaki went to a tree and crouched down in front of it. His bright, sparking aura was gone and was replaced with a crestfallen one.

"Say, Mommy, dear?"

"What is it now, Daddy?" Kyoya inquired, smirking while glancing back at Tamaki.

"I have a new theory. I mean, it's just my hypothesis, but it seems that by being in the same class, Hikaru and Kaoru are able to spend more time with Haruhi and Y/n than I get to here at the club." Tamaki started sincerely with slightly concentrated, violet eyes. "This gives them a chance to get close to them, and if that happens-"

"Tamaki, you just now realized that?" Kyoya questioned, the smirk still evident on his face as he writes things down onto his notebook.

His words struck Tamaki like he was getting fried by lightning, convulsing adequately.

"According to my research, in a single day, the twins spend roughly nine hours of class time with Haruhi and Y/n." Kyoya established, standing in front of a board while marking at it with a pointing stick. "Meanwhile, your contact with them is limited to a couple of hours of club activities. In other words, your involvement in Haruhi and Y/n's life each day amounts to no more than a mere three percent. I'm so very sorry."

"I don't want to hear it! I don't want to hear it!" Tamaki cried out, covering his ears so he could block out Kyoya's words. "Listen, Y/n and Haruhi," he grabbed the two sisters by their shoulders, his eyes holding a look of intentness, "I want you to stop hanging out with those shady twins from now on!"

"Who're you calling shady?" Hikaru called out, his fist up in the air.

"Yeah, take a good look at yourself, boss!" Kaoru joined, raising his own fist in the air.

Tamaki stumbled back, an expression of drubbing on his face. "Yes, that's it." He squeezed his fist, a audacious glimpse flashing across his facial features. "Alright then, we can't go on hiding the fact that Haruhi's a girl from everyone in the school any longer! All Daddy wants is for you to go back to being the girl you used to be and for Y/n to dress more feminine! For you to surround yourselves with girlfriends, and start leading a wholesome life!" He cried, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"Who're you calling 'Daddy'?" Y/n and Haruhi questioned with blunt expressions.

"So do it! Change back now! Change right now!" Tamaki cried, shaking Haruhi by her shoulders.

"I think he's completely lost it..." Y/n muttered, sweat dropping at Tamaki's behavior as she took a step back away from him.

"You don't have to rush things. She's going to be found out soon enough." Hikaru enlightened, him and his brother swaying from side to side with both of their index fingers up.

"Physical exams are the day after tomorrow." Kaoru briefed after his brother.

"Physical exams?" Y/n questioned with a raised eyebrow. "We have...physical exams?" Her shoulder lightly slouched at the discussion.

"That's right, I forgot all about it." Kyoya commented, the entire Host Club now surrounding Haruhi and Y/n.

"Then that means..." Haruhi began in a thoughtful tone. "There's no doubt, they're gonna know I'm really a girl." She placed her index finger on her cheek as she gazed up at the sky. It was like the Host Club was struck by lighting, expect for Kyoya, at the words Haruhi has spoken. They were flabbergasted at the realization of how 'serious' this situation really was.

Y/n nodded. "Yeah. Well, I suppose it was good while it lasted." She shrugged her shoulders, making five out-of-the six boys gasp.

"He must be having a great daydream." Honey concluded, looking at Tamaki who was sitting on a chair in the clubroom with a small blush.

"He's kind of creeping me out." Hikaru asserted mildly.

"Envious, Hikaru?" Tamaki smirked, shooting up from his chair, and snapping out of his daydream. "This is all part of my strategy. While you've wasted time blinded by your jealousy, I've foreseen the outcome of this charade." He let out a dreamy sigh, turning himself away from the other hosts. "This fanfiction is obviously a romantic school comedy. Haruhi and I are the main characters, so that means we are love interests."

"Yeah, then what are we?" The twins asked absently.

"You boys are the homosexual supporting cast!" Tamaki rotated around and pointed at the boys. Out of nowhere, he grabbed a long stick and drew a line in front of Honey, Kyoya, Mori, and the Hitachiin twins. "So, please make sure that you don't step across this line."

"You've got to be kidding. Then what is Y/n?" The twins quizzed straightforwardly.

"Y/n is my sweet and precious daughter, of course! She will look up to me and ask me for advice whenever she needs it!" Tamaki fawned at the thought.

"Hey, listen, boss." Hikaru began.

"I don't think you get it." Kaoru advised. "It's good and all that you want Y/n to be your 'daughter,' but-"

"If word gets out that Haru-Chan is really a girl, then she won't be able to be in the Host Club anymore, and I'm sure that Y/n-Chan will leave with Haru-Chan." Honey terminated, continuing with what Kaoru was going to say. Tamaki went pale at the words that the short, third year student spoke. "But if Haru-Chan started wearing girls' clothes, I bet she'd be even cuter than she is now!"

"She dressed like a regular girl when she was in middle school along with Y/n, right?" Hikaru clarified. "They must have been pretty popular with all the boys."

"Yeah. According to my investigative report, someone would declare their undying love to them at least once a month." Kyoya added to Hikaru's statement.

"Oh, I see." Kaoru started in an understanding tone. "So the boss wouldn't even be able to get close to them, especially Haruhi-"

"-but we'd be able to because we're in class with them all day long." Hikaru finished his brothers sentence with a mischievous tone.

"No way." Tamaki whimpered, tears forming in his eyes as his hand went up to hover over his mouth.

The clubroom doors opened, revealing Y/n and Haruhi. "Hey, guys, sorry we're so late." They addressed once the door was fully open.

"Don't you worry, Haruhi and Y/n!" Tamaki captured the sisters' shoulders and pulled them into the music room. "We're determined to keep your secret, Haruhi. No one will find out that you're really a girl during tomorrow's physical exams! So, please, promise you'll stay our beloved secret princess!"

Haruhi and Y/n blinked. "Sure?" Haruhi said blankly, more so as a question than an answer.

"You know what?" Hikaru initiated, looking over at his twin brother. "I think both of us would be a little peeved if we had to watch all the guys flirt with them."

"Then that settles it." Kaoru accustomed, staring back at his twin brother.

A white broad appeared with black marker. The board saying, 'Operation: Conceal Haruhi's Gender.' At the very middle of the board it was also named, 'Operation: I Swear Haruhi is a Boy!'

"Listen up, squad members." Tamaki commenced, holding a black marker to the white board. "At tomorrow's physical exams, position yourselves in Formation A and then wait for your orders."

"Yes, sir!" The twins saluted while Honey clapped in awe.

Haruhi and Y/n shared a look with one another. Haruhi clapped her fist on her palm and pointed her index finger upwards.

"I've got it. You guys are worried 'cause if they find out I'm a girl, I can't be a host and therefore Y/n and I can't repay our debt." Haruhi turned away from the Host Club, facing the window, and began to mumble to herself. "Our balance is five-million-three-hundred-thirty-three-thousand-three-hundred-thirty-two yen." She hummed and circled herself to look at the other hosts. "Well, guess we'll have to come up with another way to pay you back." She chuckled, making Y/n grin and giggle lightly.

"Do something!" The twins turned to Tamaki. "The subject doesn't appear to have any motivation!"

Tamaki slightly groaned. "Why'd we get stuck with such a difficult heroine?" Tamaki abruptly turned around and pointed his finger at Haruhi and Y/n. "Are you saying that you hate being a host? That you hate this club?"

"Well, to be honest, we have to say we kinda do." Y/n answered, swiveling around with her sister to face the window again.

Tamaki gasped and went pale. He went to his corner and whimpered quietly, the depressed aura taking over his body.

Y/n scratches the back of her head. "I mean, you guys aren't that bad to hang around, but if it gets out that Haruhi is a girl, there's nothing we can do about it."

"They don't seem to care one way or the other." Hikaru construed in a low voice.

"Well, before we do anything else we have to find a way to motivate them." Kaoru completed in the same tone as Hikaru's.

Mori placed the tips of his thumb and index finger on his chin in a thoughtful manner. "Fancy tuna." Y/n and Haruhi gasp at the silent males contention.

"Oh, that's right." Tamaki remembered in a mocking tone. "You girls didn't get the chance to eat any during last chapters party, did you?" He turned his head to stare at the girls with a malicious aspect.

"Did you hear that? They've never eaten fancy tuna before. Isn't that awful?" Hikaru whispered loud enough for everyone to hear, a mischievous tone in their voice as him and his brother glanced at the sisters from the corner of their eye, making Y/n and Haruhi sweat drop.

"Wow. Talk about a difficult childhood." Kaoru commented with his hand ghosting over his lips, his amber colored eyes glancing at Haruhi and Y/n.

"If only Haru-Chan and Y/n-Chan could stay in the Host Club, they'd have the chance to eat all kinds of yummy things whenever they want." Honey affirmed, looking down at his pink, stuffed bunny, Usa-Chan.

"What are you talking about? Don't be silly." Haruhi waved her hand, trying to cover up her nervousness. "Just 'cause were poor and we've never had it doesn't mean that we're so much of a glutton we'd go on fooling everyone about my gender just to try some fancy tuna." She nervously laughs.

Y/n clears her throat while looking at the Host Club who was staring at her and her sister with a mixture of smiles and smirks. "Y-yeah, what Haruhi said."

Haruhi's chuckles died down as they both sweat dropped. "Are we really gonna get to try it?" They both asked, overcome by the deprived thought of consuming the fish.

Honey, Tamaki, and the twins let out laughs, hearts practically floating above their heads at how Haruhi and Y/n gave in.
