notes: i just wanna say thank you sm for the support on the insta posts! reading all your comments & reposts made me so happy >.<
𐙚 tamaki suoh - loud and proud
this man is not afraid to show (both verbally and physically) how badly he wants you all to himself. he does not care about showing his jealous side, he has zero shame. as soon as he sees anyone show attraction towards you, he has to break it up immediately.
one time you were standing outside music room 3 and tamaki was patiently waiting for you, except he wasn’t being patient at all and he was getting really fidgety whilst he waited for you. he took matters into his own hands dramatically declaring to the rest of the host club that he will find you, tell you off as you are very late (you were one minute behind schedule) & he will bring you back pronto. he slams open the music room doors which lead him to a terrible scene worse than a crime scene - a young man was talking to you…! he wasn’t just talking, he was caressing your arm lightly, oh the horror! tamaki screeched at the sight causing both you and this young man to turn but as you both turned, tamaki was already at your side within a split second. he gripped your shoulders and smiled almost manically at this young man you were talking to “oh, i’m terribly sorry to disrupt your clearly very intriguing conversation but, y/n is late for an appointment with moi.” he flicks his luscious blonde locks causing a sparkle to appear, how does he do that? it’s like he’s a cartoon. you couldn’t even give a simple goodbye to this young man before being dragged away and berated by tamaki for your tardiness. as you reach the door of music room 3, he quickly forgives you “—but, y/n, as i am a graceful and understanding man, i will forgive you my darling. lets get a pot of tea, hm?” you can’t help but chuckle at his foolishness.
𐙚 kyoya ootori - cold and calculated
this man isn’t stupid, he knows that he feels jealous over you sometimes however, he’s not like tamaki, he can’t openly admit to it. so, he takes matters into his own hands and do what kyoya does best - strategically plan something to go exactly the way he wants it to without any connections leading back to him.
not only did you frequent the host club and become close with the members but, you were also in kyoya’s class so, you were around each other a lot. however, kyoya had started to notice you were talking less to him and tamaki and more to some other guy. tamaki would constantly tease kyoya as he often caught him sending dirty looks and glares to both you and the random boy as you chatted away, laughing and such. kyoya always brushed tamaki off saying “i just don’t want to lose a good customer.” while that was partly true, he’s a businessman after all, he also didn’t want to lose you. not as a customer, just you. he clears time in his schedule to start making a revenge plan, he hires everyone in the host club to partake in his plan still claiming it to be for “customer/money-making reasons” and everyone saw right through him but, it’s kyoya. nobody’s gonna question him!
thus commences his plan which consisted of just keeping you two apart. somehow distracting you during class, or distracting him, or dragging you off during lunch to help with this that or the other. but, kyoya didn’t leave this boy emptied handed, no no, he replaced you with a girl. you’d be dragged somewhere and plonk, a girl in your place. kyoya knew this boy was romantically interested in you and as the distractions pulled you two apart, it pulled together him and this other girl. he started to move his romantic intentions from you to her. this boy gradually stopped trying to find you and talk to you, to kyoya’s delight. you briefly mentioned it to the host club one day, not realising it was romantic and feeling a bit upset that you’d lost who thought was a friend. kyoya felt a bit bad sure but, he saved you. you’ll never know he did but, he did and that’s enough for him. he does smirk a bit as you tell the short story and replies with a cocky “what a shame.”
𐙚 haruhi fujioka - confused and indifferent
haruhi may be incredibly intelligent but she is not one for social intelligence, let alone romantic intelligence. she’s confused as to why she even feels jealous in the first place & it makes her feel weird. she gets a pit in her stomach every time she even sees you brush someone else’s shoulder and she hates it. she just thinks it’s plain silly to be jealous because you’re not even together!
the twins have been paying a lot of attention to you lately, and usually you’d sit and talk with haruhi but as the twins continue to bug you, you give in and eventually start conversing with them more and more until you’re with them more than haruhi. you don’t flat out ignore haruhi, of course not, but she just feels this pit in her stomach and a stabbing pain in her chest as she watches you from a distance, chatting and laughing with the twins. she really tries her best to ignore this feeling, so much so that even when you do talk to her, she ends up acting indifferent toward you. the conversations between the two of you are shorter, filled with more awkward silences than either of you would like. haruhi notices this and knows this is happening because of her foolish jealously but, she genuinely can’t help it! she’s really trying to both ignore this ever growing jealously and still try to act normal around you but it seems impossible. you’re obviously upset thinking that haruhi doesn’t like you anymore, for whatever reason & the whole host club notices these changes. overall, its an extremely messy situation that will probably be resolved through an extremely thorough, detailed plan made by tamaki suoh himself.
𐙚 hikaru hitachiin - quiet and cold
he’s such an aggravating jealous type, he becomes extremely quiet and not the quiet where you feel sad the type of quiet where when you walk into a room, you can feel the anger radiating off the person. the whole host club and especially kaoru are in fear, quite frankly. they need to nip this in the bud asap. not only is he terribly quiet, he’s also incredibly cold specifically toward you! the host club can’t help but cringe as you try your best to interact with hikaru.
he had seen you getting as he’d describe ‘cosy’ with someone this morning outside of the school gates, and it made him so freaking jealous. why wasn’t he that cosy with you? you never hugged him goodbye or laughed so hard at his jokes that you slapped his arm. he was so upset. from 8am this morning, everyone had to face his wrath. he was quiet all day, only answering with snappy short answers. he barely ate at lunch even though his favourite dishes were included and then came the host club. he tried his best to keep up with the ‘brotherly love’ dynamic but found it difficult as that image of you with that person just kept circling in his mind constantly. all the clients that day noticed his change in demeanour and kyoya was not happy to see their clients upset or leaving early - hikarus personal issues were causing harm to the business! before kyoya could storm over there and stop this nonsense himself, you walked in. its like the whole room secretly knew where hikarus problem lies because everyone fell silent. you gulped nervously, why did everyone suddenly stop? as you made your way over to the twins, kaoru looked relived to see you while hikaru didn’t look at you at all. kaoru excitedly poured you a cup of tea as you sat down slowly still staring at hikaru, silently begging him to look at you. but, your silent pleas didn’t work. he would only take small glances at you, just to turn his nose up and turn his head away again. oh, the drama. you and kaoru awkwardly conversed, both of you tried your best to get hikaru involved but, he refused. although, he did make a sly comment or two. after some conversing you mention that your cousin had dropped you to school this morning, your cousin from a foreign country. hikarus interest had piqued “wait… cousin…?” he thought to himself. the whole host club and clients included all face palmed hearing this, hikaru had over exaggerated. once again.
𐙚 kaoru hitachiin - sad and nonchalant
kaoru may be mischievous and cheeky like his older twin but, they are different in some aspects and one being when it comes to love. kaoru would never dream of making his jealously yours or anyone else’s problem.
when he saw you getting friendly with your seat partner in class, it greatly saddened him. you two used to sit beside each other (hikaru on his other side, of course) but you got moved after an exchange student joined the class and you were the only one who spoke english well enough to help them. at first, you were just a nice classmate but as the weeks went by, you two would spend more time together, talk about other things other than school and laugh together and to make it worse, kaoru barely knew what you were even talking about because you were conversing in english! he accepts his fate and thinks that you’re in love with this exchange student and that’s it for him and the idea of ever being with you - but, as long as you’re happy, he’s happy. kaoru is so mature when it comes to this, he doesn’t interfere or ask the host club to come up with an elaborate plan or anything of the sort. although, it’s hard for him to hide his sadness especially around you. you still visit the host club often and try your best to talk to kaoru as you still think your friends but, he goes extremely quiet, only giving you short or one word answers. it makes you sad that he seems so off with you and you can’t even ignore the signs because every time you try to spend time with him he comes up with some excuse to not be around you. in his mind, it’s the best way to be so he doesn’t get in your way.
some time passes, and you decide to bring it up to him (when you finally catch him alone), you beg to know what’s the matter and after a lot of refusal, kaoru finally cracks and tells you everything he has been feeling. you blush at the thought of the kaoru hitachiin getting jealous over you! safe to say that by your next lesson, you request to move back to your original seat, right next to kaoru.
𐙚 mitsukuni haninozuka - melancholy and mature
honey is obviously known for his boy lolita character, he may act aloof but he is eighteen and just because he’s super cute doesn’t mean he’s not incredibly emotionally intelligent both when it comes to himself and others. he is the second most chill host club member at least when it comes to jealously.
you were honeys regular (and favourite but, don’t tell the other clients that) however, to his dismay, you had been coming less and less for the last two weeks. he was upset by this and asked around the host club wondering if they had seen you around and indeed they had… with another man! gasp! you were seemingly canoodling with some guy from your year group and oh, poor honey was so upset. you were his favourite for a reason and now you’re gone! however, he doesn’t let this get in the way of his life. he will absolutely have a cry in his room or to mori whilst eating a buttload of cake (like even more than usual) for about a week or so to help get rid of these negative emotions. however, when he’s doing his host club thing he can’t help but think about you in the back of his mind even though he’s supposed to be ‘recovered’.
after about another two weeks or so, honey is pretty much over it. but, all his hard work to get to this point is almost completely shattered because you walked into the host club! you swing your head around until your eyes land on honey and you run toward him immediately, desperate to explain your situation. honeys face drops into a pout at your arrival, he just got over you, why did you have to come back?! you interrupt his session with some other girls and start to explain yourself, the boy you were with was a marriage suitor arranged by your parents but, it fell through! you were free from the grasp of arranged marriage and ready to be honeys favourite client again. honey is absolutely overjoyed to hear this and tackles you with a hug, feeling a bit embarrassed that he let his jealously get to him so much. he ate a lot cake for that week where he was sad. like a lot, he had several cavities after.
𐙚 takashi morinozuka - quiet and and calm, duh
okay, i know this is hard to imagine but mori is even more quiet when he’s jealous. he’s completely calm and to the average person, he may seem like the same old mori but, to the trained eye he is far from normal.
the host club could feel something was wrong, just by the air in the room and honey quickly informed them that mori was being quiet and everyone was like “well, duh.” but honey had to explain that it ran deeper than that, he was jealous. the host club gasped, over what!? or who!? over you, that’s who. he had been silently tending to the animals and insects he had made friends with in the ouran academy gardens when he saw you gracefully wandering through the rose bushes and you weren’t alone, you were with a second year who had been known for being a mori lookalike. they were both tall, lanky, nonchalant and incredibly handsome. mori’s face stayed stoic as he watched you both, his animal friends still at his side comforting him - had been replaced? by a lookalike?! why would you want a lookalike when you had the original? this whole ordeal made him very upset, not to the point where was ripping his hair out in anguish but, he was upset. honey realised it especially, he was extra quiet and extra stoic even if nobody else noticed a difference. however, these negative emotions actually aided mori in his kendo! he was able to blow off a lot of steam and perform even more powerful moves than usual, which made him a little bit happier.
honey, who had to deal with this sad mori constantly, had enough and decided to confront you. it was difficult to get mori off his back because i mean it’s honey and mori but also, mori was more clingy lately (due to his jealous outburst) but honey found a way. honey was quick to find you and confronted you quite bluntly, you were shocked to hear this explaining that the second year wanted a tour of the garden as you were the leader of the gardening club, you didn’t believe it to be romantic! and that’s when it all starts adding up, mori lookalike… what’s another way to be more like mori…? go after the person he likes! god, you feel like a fool. before honey can make his great escape back to mori, mori finds honey himself. before mori can snatch honey and make a dramatic exit, you apologise and explain what’s happened. god, now mori feels like a fool too.
Warning, Some token Baki anime/manga violence. Npc men being creeps in a park.
Summary, The boys notice you haven’t been going out at night anymore. Turns out you had an unpleasant experience at your usual park. It’s made you not want to go back but the boys are here for you.
Baki Hanma
You hadn’t been to the park in weeks. The evening strolls you used to love had been cut short the night a group of men decided their words were more important than your comfort.
When you finally admitted the reason, Baki’s brows furrowed. He didn’t press for details, didn’t ask for names. He just said, softly,
“Then I’ll walk with you.”
The next night, he met you at your door, hands in his pockets like it was the most natural thing in the world. As you walked under the streetlights, the air felt different. Calmer. Or maybe heavier, you weren’t sure.
When strangers glanced your way, their eyes shifted almost immediately, flicking toward Baki and then down at the pavement. Nobody called out. Nobody lingered. It was like some invisible wall wrapped around the two of you.
You noticed it, even if you couldn’t explain it.
“You’re…really quiet tonight,” you said.
Baki smiled at you, warm and unbothered. “I just want you to enjoy your night walks again. That’s all.”
Later, as you passed the same bench where the catcallers had sat before, you saw it was empty. You didn’t know Baki had been there earlier that week, standing silently until the men felt their courage crumble and scattered like leaves in the wind.
All you knew was that you felt safe again. And when Baki’s hand brushed yours, steady and grounding, you believed him when he said, “Nothing’s going to bother you anymore. Not while I’m here.”

Katsumi Orochi
When you told Katsumi about the night at the park, you expected him to be angry. Not at you but at the men at the park. Instead, he went unusually quiet. His jaw tightened but his voice stayed calm.
“You shouldn’t have to put up with that.”
The next day, he mentioned offhandedly, “I’ll talk to the guys at the dojo. We’ll figure it out.” You assumed he meant just venting about it.
What he didn’t tell you was that, after a little digging, he and a few Shinshinkai students found the troublemakers. By the end of the night, those same men were tied up neatly outside a police station, bruised, embarrassed and very apologetic. Katsumi had made sure of it.
The following evening, he appeared at your door, smiling like nothing unusual had happened. “Come on. Let’s go for a walk. You’ll like the air tonight.”
As you strolled through the park, you noticed the strange quiet. No lingering stares. No voices following you. Katsumi walked at your side, hands in his pockets, casual but steady, like he was measuring every shadow.
“You’re safe,” he said simply when he saw the way your shoulders loosened. Then, after a pause, he grinned a little sheepishly. “Can’t have anyone disturbing your peace.”
What you didn’t know and what he never admitted was that Katsumi had gone much further than “talking” to anyone.

Retsu Kaiou
When you told Retsu why you’d stopped going to the park, you didn’t expected him to do much besides listen and offer you tea. Instead, his expression softened. He folded his arms, listening without interrupting, his eyes steady on you.
“That must have been very unpleasant,” he said finally, his voice low and even. “I am sorry you had to experience it. You should not carry the weight of their behavior.”
The words caught you off guard. He wasn’t dismissing it or making you feel weak. He was simply…validating you.
That night, Retsu insisted on walking with you. At the park, he kept a respectful distance at first, hands behind his back in his usual posture. But when he saw the way you tensed as someone glanced your way, he moved closer, his presence suddenly commanding, sharp as a blade, though he hadn’t said a word.
Nobody dared to approach. Nobody even lingered.
“You see?” he said quietly as you continued walking, the evening air cool around you. “Peace does not return when you hide away. It returns when you know you are not alone in facing the world.”
His tone was calm, almost teacher-like but there was something warmer beneath it. And as your hand brushed against his, you felt the quiet reassurance he’d been offering all along, not just protection but respect.
—
Kaoru Hanayama
When you admitted why you weren’t going out at night anymore, Hanayama didn’t speak right away. He just sat there, cigar smoke curling slowly in the air, eyes narrowed.
Finally, he said in that calm, gravelly tone,
“No one should be bothering you. Leave it to me.”
You thought that was the end of it, just Hanayama being reassuring. What you didn’t realize was that, the same night, he had already called a few of his men. By the following evening, the park was under quiet surveillance. Anyone looking to cause trouble found themselves “escorted” away long before they got close.
When you returned to the park with him, the difference was immediate. It was quiet. Peaceful. Almost too peaceful. Hanayama walked beside you, massive and steady, looking like he had nothing to do with the quiet park.
“You’re safe here,” he said simply. “Don’t worry about it anymore.”
You glanced at him, suspicious. “You didn’t do anything too drastic did you?”
Hanayama gave a slow shrug, the faintest smirk tugging at his lips. “Doesn’t matter what I did. What matters is you can enjoy yourself again.”
Behind you, somewhere out of sight, his men kept watch but you never had to know.
—
Jack Hanma
When you confessed what happened at the park, Jack was silent. He didn’t ask for details. He didn’t even frown. He just stared at you for a long moment, then muttered,
“Where.”
That night, Jack went alone. The men who had harassed you didn’t stand a chance. They weren’t opponents, they weren’t fighters, they were just cowards who’d picked the wrong person to bother. Jack didn’t waste words. He simply made it clear, with fists, with presence, that they’d never step foot in that park again.
The next evening, he showed up at your place. “Walk.” he said simply and the two of you headed toward the park.
It was quiet this time. Too quiet. The same corners that had felt threatening before were now empty, shadows undisturbed. You glanced up at him, suspicion prickling at the back of your mind.
“What did you do?”
Jack’s mouth curled into something between a smirk and a sneer. “Doesn’t matter. They won’t bother you again.”
He didn’t elaborate and you knew better than to press. But when his hand brushed against your back, guiding you forward, you understood. Whatever Jack had done, it was final. And you never had to be afraid there again.
Never seen anyone include Renge so, but can you tell who my favorite is?
Haruhi
Haruhi would completely understand where you’re coming from, as she grew up in a similar situation. She’d gently remind you that there’s no shame in needing help and would probably offer compromises, like splitting the cost or cooking meals together. She’d want you to feel comfortable without making a big fuss.
“I get why you feel that way, but there’s nothing wrong with asking for help. Besides, it’s just food—it’s not like I’m expecting you to pay me back with interest or anything.”
Tamaki
Tamaki would be heartbroken at the idea of you feeling self-conscious about money. He’d dramatically proclaim that he wants to take care of you and insists that you shouldn’t hesitate to ask. Expect a lot of heartfelt speeches about how your happiness matters more to him than money. He’d also make a point of showing you how much he enjoys "commoner" meals to make you feel less out of place.
“Mon amour, your happiness is priceless! Let me treat you—it’s the least I can do for the person who has captured my heart!”
Kyoya
Kyoya would handle it more pragmatically. He’d notice your hesitations before you even voiced them and would discreetly handle expenses without making a big deal out of it. He might casually say something like, “I was planning to cover it anyway,” to ease your worries.
“You worrying about this is a waste of time. Let me handle it—money isn’t something you need to concern yourself with around me.”
Honey
Honey would immediately insist on treating you, probably while hugging you tightly and offering you cake. He’d say something like, “You’re so silly! Of course I’ll pay for it!” He’d never let you feel guilty about it and would focus on making you smile instead.
“As long as I get to see you smile, that’s all that matters! Now, how about some dessert?”
Mori
Mori wouldn’t say much, but his actions would speak volumes. If he noticed you hesitating, he’d simply take care of the bill without a word and maybe give you a comforting pat on the head or a small smile to reassure you.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry about it.”
Hikaru
Hikaru might initially struggle to understand why you’re self-conscious, as he’s used to a world where money is never an issue. He’d probably tease you at first, saying something like, “Why are you being so dramatic about something so small?” But when he realized your feelings were genuine, he’d become protective.
“You’re with me now, so stop worrying about stuff like this. Just let me take care of it, okay?”
Kaoru
Kaoru would be more intuitive and empathetic than Hikaru about your self-consciousness. He’d notice your hesitation immediately and gently address it, saying something like, “You know it’s okay to ask for help, right? It doesn’t bother me.”
“You don’t have to carry this on your own. I want to help you, not because I have to, but because I care about you.”
Renge
Renge would be over-the-top about wanting to help. She’d dramatically declare that it’s her duty to make sure you’re cared for and would probably come up with elaborate plans to spoil you.
“As your devoted partner, it’s my responsibility to take care of everything! Leave it to me, darling!”
Two posts in a month!?!? I believe that’s a new record for me! (Not really).
Honey's Three Bitter Days! - when an unexpected toothache occurs in the one obsessed with the sugary treats, it turns the whole club upside down. will the members be able to deal with the new honey?
Pairing - fem!reader x host club
A part of - ouran add in
"Now you've done it!" Tamaki exclaimed.
"It's done, all right?" Hikaru spoke, the three boys looking at the spilt teacups and massive tea stain all over the dear Usa-chan plushie. The tea was quickly seeping into the material of the plush, a new scent covering the item.
"But it wasn't our fault," Kaoru added.
"What? You idiots! You're the ones who bumped into it, right?" Tamaki stared at the precious stuffie, worry evident on his face.
"Only because Y/n was running away," Hikaru commented.
"We were trying to catch her because we wanted to have fun and dress her up in cosplay," Kaoru explained.
"I just wanted to read the new book I got," she whined, the arms of the twins stopping her from running. "Haruhi, help." She looked over towards her friend helplessly.
"I can't right now; I have to finish this assignment," Haruhi muttered, not even looking up from the project, fingers working to place pieces in their desired areas as she zoned in as if a robot.
"So what? We cosplay all the time," Tamaki reminded them.
"We weren't going with usual Host Club costumes," Hikaru told him.
"We would like to see Y/n in a bunny cosplay, with her mask down," Kaoru finished, both looking proudly at Tamaki with their plans.
"That would never happen," Y/n sighed, shaking a little bit in their arms to try and loosen such a grip. “It is a death wish for everyone involved.”
"You'd like to see it too, wouldn't you?" The twins asked Tamaki.
Tamaki turned away from the group, his face now bright red from the image that popped up in his head, imagining what she would look like. He could not help the image filled with a skin-tight suit adorned by cute ears and fishnet stockings.
"There's no time for stuff like that right now!" He muttered to himself. "I know what you're up to. You're trying to distract me from the mess you've made! Get away from Y/n, you punks!"
"No way!" They hugged her tighter, Y/n squirming in their grips.
Kyoya looked up from his laptop, seeing the girl being smothered by the boys. He did a slight push-up of his glasses and a small kick of Mori’s shin from underneath the table to garner his attention, pointing the confused man’s eyes to what was going on. Quickly enough, Mori stood up, sauntering over to the twins with his bigger nature and almost seamlessly plucking Y/n from their grips, guiding her back over to the table to a pushed-out chair (thanks to Kyoya’s foot). She took a seat, happily grabbing the newly published novel in front of her and skimming through to the desired page. Tamaki took this time to try and ream into the twins, gripping the upper fabric of their coats to pull them in close and shake them, shouting in annoyance.
"Excuse me, we don't have guests at the moment so I don't mind if you make a racket but please be careful. You don't want to wake Honey-senpai," Kyoya warned them, which stopped the three dead in their tracks to peer at the peaceful older member.
"We will have to tell him about the bunny," Y/n reminded the boys, flipping a page. Haruhi stood up, stretching, peering down at her successful and finished presentation to walk over near the third year.
"You’ll already have to do it at some point; let's just wake him up and apologize," she suggested, moving closer towards him.
"No, wait! Don't get any closer to Honey-senpai," Tamaki and the brothers whisper-yelled.
"Come back, it's safe over here," Tamaki waved her over from behind a couch.
"What are you talking about?" Haruhi inquired, now standing by them. She lifted her glance over to where Y/n was, almost signaling her to join in this.
"Honey-senpai wakes up in a very bad mood after napping," Tamaki informed her. Y/n got up from her position, choosing to join Haruhi and hear more about this.
"Well, don't we all?" Y/n shrugged and Tamaki pulled her closer, letting her now sit on the couch with the rest of them before he placed a hand to cup over his mouth.
"This may be just a rumor, but the Haninozuka family once visited the U.S. military base to give combat training. Supposedly, Honey-senpai slept through most of it because of his jet lag. Then a soldier came and carelessly tried to wake him up since he had been sleeping for so long. On that day, he wiped out two entire platoons of soldiers, and not just any soldiers—Green Berets! And I’ve heard we’ve had diplomatic issues with America ever since that day."
“How terrifying,” the twins whimpered from beside him.
"What?" Y/n looked at him dumbfounded, trying to then stifle a laugh at the absurd rumor.
"It's not funny," he whined. "And now we've got a big problem. Usa-chan was handmade for Honey-senpai by his deceased grandmother. You've seen the way he carries it around. That little bunny is his most prized possession. I can't imagine how he's going to react when he wakes up and finds that his precious Usa-chan is ruined!"
"He's going to do to us what he did to those Green Berets!" The three boys yelled.
"You’re exaggerating. It’s impossible for that story to be true. I mean, come on," Haruhi sighed.
"It is, and there's other evidence that Honey-senpai has an evil side to him. Listen to this. His blood type is AB. How do you like that?" Tamaki whispered to the girls.
"What's wrong with that?" Y/n questioned.
"But Y/n, that means he's the same blood type as Kyoya!" The five all slowly turned to look at the said man, the one who was just typing away at his screen.
"What's the matter?" He asked, not fully paying attention. "Do you guys have a problem with my blood type?” Honey started to turn in his makeshift bed, causing concern to multiple of the members.
"This is bad; we have to do something quick before he wakes up," Tamaki muttered, his breath trembling as he tried to calm his nerves. The five were still huddled up behind a couch. "Hikaru, Kaoru," he snapped his fingers.
"Sir!" They rushed over, hand in salute position, standing straight and alert.
"Go get your folks' Cessna. Fly to Osorezan and bring back a medium," Tamaki commanded. "We'll channel his grandmother and she can guide us through it. We can make a new Usa-chan for Honey-senpai!" He pulled out a map, one that was not very detailed with locations but rather images. A pond covered by a large duck, train, apple, and other odd symbols were what took up the space of the page "Take this map of Amoru prefecture with you, and don't forget to bring back apple juice, apple jam, and Nebuta souvenir dolls!"
"But we don't have that much time," Hikaru reminded him.
"We are used to your crazy ideas but couldn't you come up with something more practical?" Kaoru wondered.
"Alright, how about this... We'll send Usa-chan to the cleaners, Y/n!" Tamaki called out, causing a skeptical Y/n to peek up from behind the couch, next to Haruhi. "You're going to have to wear the bunny suit." Tamaki held up a large costume that looked like Usa-chan, shoving it more towards Y/n’s figure.
"Yeah! Good idea, boss!" The twins spoke, now fully engaged in the plan.
"What now? that won't wo-"
"Yes, it will; he will be just waking up from a nap and won't know the difference," Tamaki tried to combat her worries, moving to pull one of Y/n’s arms towards him while the other was being pulled by Haruhi to get her away.
"Why don't you just wear it, senpai?" Y/n’s voice let out a tinge of a whine, getting frustrated with the current circumstance.
"It does not work the same and since we can't get another bunny, you're just going to have to step in. Besides, if the twins weren't chasing you, none of this would've happened!" Yet Tamaki’s yelling, and the tugging of both him and Haruhi stopped as they slowly watched Honey sit up, rubbing his eyes. "He's awake! We'll have to use a substitute! We've got no choice!"
The room went silent as Honey rubbed softly at his eyes and peered downwards to see the brown bear that was swapped out for his beloved plush. With no words he grabbed one of the bear's paws and threw it to the ground with such force that it bounced back up on the tile.
"No! Not my teddy bear!" Tamaki screamed with a petrified expression.
"He's gonna’ come after us next!"
"He just spotted his bunny!" The twins each commented, huddled in closely with Tamaki, staring in fear that if they looked away from the boy, they would be attacked.
Honey dragged his blanket over to the table where the drenched bunny was. Softly, he picked up the soaked toy, staring down at his ruined form.
"Who's responsible for this? Who got Usa-chan dirty?" Honey turned towards the group, staring down specifically at the three boys as he uttered such questions devoid of emotion.
"Um, Kyoya, you needed something," Y/n mentioned, and although he never called on her, she grabbed Haruhi's hand and scurried over to the empty chairs, taking a seat at the table where the other two were watching intently as well.
"Someone help! Mori-senpai! Don't let him hurt us!" Tamaki begged with tears streaming in fear, the twins hiding behind him to be prepared to sacrifice their leader if need be.
Mori got up slowly from his seat, walking over behind the boys to provide some assistance. "He wanted tea, so Usa-chan decided to have a drink," Mori told Honey.
"I see. So that's why his face is all dirty, isn't it?" Honey smiled, his normal, bubbly personality returning. "Hey, Y/n!" The girl walked over in response to her name. "Do you think he wants some cake too?"
"He liked the tea, so perhaps," Y/n shared, softly nodding in agreement. Honey happily grabbed her hand and led her over to a table with treats present. Behind them, the three boys fell to the ground on their knees, thanking whichever god that they didn't die, causing a little laugh to leave the lips of Haruhi, who watched their dramatic forms.
"Honey, how do you like to have chocolate?" Marika, a common visitor to the bubbly boy, wondered, sitting across from him in Music Room 3. "Mousse? Bonbons? Wait, I bet chocolate cake is your favorite, huh?"
"Um. Let's see. Well. I like 'em all!" Honey beamed. "I love anything chocolate, Usa-chan, and all of you ladies!"
"Aw! He's so cute!" The three young women crowded around had exclaimed while a blush adorned their cheeks.
"Haninozuka Mitsukuni, otherwise known as Honey-senpai, age seventeen. Ouran Academy third year, Class A, and member of the Host Club. Favorite things include cake, chocolate, and bunnies. He's famous for his enchanting boy-Lolita characteristics," Renge informed no one in particular.
"We got lucky," Y/n lightly chuckled, standing near Tamaki as the two looked out to the other hosts entertaining their guests. "Thank goodness for Mori-senpai.”
"No kidding! I'm glad we settled that Usa-chan issue without any violence," Tamaki added, thankful.
"Honey-senpai's catchphrases include 'I love candy' and 'I love cute things.'" And while some find these charming, I'm not quite sold on his cutesy loli boy image. It's not exciting enough. It feels like something's missing in his character arc!" Renge announced in her microphone, now appearing beside the duo.
"Hello, would you ladies like some tea?" Y/n questioned, holding a tray with a few cups. The girls nodded, still staring at Honey, who was clutching Usa-chan tightly. "Be careful, Honey-senpai, don't eat too much," Y/n lightly warned, setting down the cups.
"I'll be okay!" He beamed, munching on another piece of soft, sugary dessert.
"I hope you don't get a cavity; they aren't too fun." Y/n reminisced on her younger days. As a child her butler would sometimes find her climbed up onto the tall counters and her face dirtied with chocolate. It was not long after when this habit had to end due to a cavity appearing at her next appointment.
"Oh, don't worry. I always brush my teeth." He smiled at her, taking another chomp. But this time the fork didn't come out too quickly, and his facial expression changed to a bitter one.
The rest of the Host Club found themselves looking at the Lolita-type boy, knowing something was wrong. Y/n bent down a bit to try and take a look at the cheek he was holding. "Are you alright, Honey-senpai?"
"It's nothing, 'kay?" He held his cheek still, looking downward. Y/n backed away a little, allowing some of the other club members to get a closer look.
"Let me take a look at your mouth," Haruhi muttered, while the twins tried to hold him down, working to move his hands away from his cheeks. In response, Honey squirmed, kicking his feet and whining loudly, attracting attention from the whole room.
"Honey-senpai, hold still." Hikaru tried to keep him down to open his mouth.
"There's nothing wrong! Quit messing with me!" He whined, still holding the pained cheek. Honey got up, tears forming in his eyes, walking away to try and get away from the prying hands. "Leave me alone!" At this loud cry, Mori walked right over, alarmed at Honey’s pain, and grabbed one of Honey's hands as they fell back onto the couch. Mori's open hand reached towards Honey's jaw, opening it to get a good look at the tooth. Instead of recognizing it as an act done out of pure concern, the girls started to scream, chalking it up as an adorable act.
"Yes! That's it! That's it! That's what was missing!" Renge popped up.
"I think we should give them some space," Y/n mentioned, seeing an embarrassed blush fall upon Honey's face. "Why don't you ladies go get some tea and cake over there and we will regroup in a couple of minutes?" Y/n offered, leading most of them to another area so they could chit-chat and the Host Club could talk amongst themselves.
"No, no, this is perfect. It's Moe!" Renge yelled, while Y/n rolled her eyes at the oblivious girl.
"So is it a cavity?" Tamaki questioned, walking over to Mori, who was inspecting the mouth of a struggling boy.
"Yeah.”
"It's all right, I'll be okay," Honey spoke with tears in his eyes.
"Tamaki."
"Yes, you're right, I'll take care of this," Tamaki answered, walking away with an understanding idea shared between the two by the mere way Mori had said his name. He made it back to where Y/n was trying to distract some of the very curious members to no avail. It was a difficult mission to do due to the continuous fangirling that Renge was doing, only getting the crowd more antsy and excited. "Until Honey-senpai gets over his cavity. I'm afraid he can't have sweets. Therefore, we'll be supportive and ask that you kindly refrain from eating snacks in the clubroom until this ordeal is over," he announced calmly, catching the attention of all.
"No, no, don't, Takashi. Please don't take my snacks away. You can't. Don't do it. What'll I do without them?!" Honey sadly begged the man just to watch Mori stand up and take a piece of cake away. "I can handle it! Please don't take away my cake!"
"No more cake," Mori calmly shared, turning back to remind him of the new deal before walking away once again.
"And that's how it all began. One little cavity, and suddenly Honey-senpai's life became a living hell," Renge told no one in particular while Honey whined about his food disappearing.
As the school day continued, Honey walked the halls with a much more reserved and quiet manner. Encasing his head was a type of scarf securing the ice pack to his sore jaw. The new image of someone who was totally different than the normal boy caught eyes from fellow classmates.
"Poor Honey-senpai looks so miserable," A girl noticed, standing beside her friend and watching the usually cheerful boy not be so cheerful. "It's a shame the Host Club banned snacks."
"It must be really difficult for him," her friend added. "I hope this doesn't seem insensitive. I know he's in pain, but... he's so cute!" They continued to watch him with adoring eyes, whispering about how the way the face wrap was tied at the top made him resemble a bunny.
"Mitsukuni, bag," Mori stopped the boy, while his fellow classmate held his cheek sadly.
"I can carry it," Honey responded.
"Yes, you can. Hand it over." Mori took the bag and dumped its contents, the comically large amount of candy, onto the ground.
"I was just looking. I wasn't going to eat them," Honey tried to explain.
"Really? If you're just looking, then try this." Mori held up a sheet that had images of sweet treats on it. "I'll keep the real stuff."
"Aw man, that was rough," the twins commented, standing behind a pillar with Haruhi and Y/n.
"Poor Honey-senpai," Y/n's tone saddened, knowing how much it hurt the boy.
"You know, I had no idea that Mori-senpai could be so brutal," Hikaru voiced.
"You wouldn't expect it," Kaoru added. "I thought his principles kept him from doing anything to upset Honey-senpai."
"And to think he could get the boss to go along with him," Hikaru shrugged.
"Mori-senpai is doing what he must. He's just helping Honey-senpai; it can't be easy for him either," Y/n muttered, walking behind the twins with Haruhi.
Soon the school day was over and everyone was back in Music Room 3, taking their seats and meeting guests.
"It's too bad Tamaki, I wanted to give you some of the chocolates specially made by our new pâtissier. My family just hired him from France." A girl explained, "But I can't share them with you because you're not eating sweets." She sighed dramatically.
"Do not fret, my princess. For the present, I must abstain for poor Honey-senpai's sake, but eventually we'll be able to share chocolate together again," Tamaki reassured her.
"Aw! The friendship you have with the boys is absolutely beautiful," she grinned.
Tamaki swiftly took one of her hands in his. "I believe things will work out, for the better this way, my dear," He looked deeply into her eyes. "I'm sure it's delicious but no chocolate could ever be able to withstand the heat wave of my love, so it would all melt and go to waste," Tamaki confessed, garnering a very lovestruck expression from the girl across.
After Tamaki was finished with that guest, he was on his way to go converse with Y/n until the “devil twins” stopped him.
"Impressive, boss," Hikaru praised. "That was quite an act."
"Missing sweets, aren't you?" Kaoru added.
"Buzz off," Tamaki scoffed. "The club's number one priority is our guests. All that matters is their happiness."
"You better watch yourselves out there," Kyoya mentioned beside a pillar, writing down numbers. "Don't give any sweets to Honey-senpai, no matter what tricks he resorts to. Oh, and incidentally, those instructions come from Mori-senpai," he grinned, walking over to where Y/n was talking with a guest.
"So is it just me, or does he seem to be enjoying this?" Hikaru wondered, watching him walk away with a smile.
Y/n spent some time entertaining her guests while balancing little moments with the other members on the side so that when she was due for her break, she was really looking forward to the peace and quiet. The room had been bubbling with the new circumstances of Honey bringing about more energy that required her as well to put more in. Though, her peace did not come as Haruhi came rushing in to tell Y/n what she witnessed, interrupting her moment to skim through some pages of her newest novel.
"-and then Mori-senpai rejected her,” Haruhi revealed, explaining the scene she had witnessed moments before of a girl bearing her feelings to him. “I'm not sure why. She was very kind to him, but he was silent the whole time," Haruhi explained, sitting across from Y/n.
"Hm," she hummed, swirling a spoon in her tea. "I wonder what's up with him?"
"Look, Takashi! My cavity is all better now!" Honey came running in with a large grin. "The swelling has even gone down!"
"Has it?" Mori questioned, over at a table reading one of the books Y/n had recommended.
"So, do you think I can have a piece of cake? Just one? Please?" Honey asked, jumping up and down beside Mori. As the boy cheerfully kept up his begging, Mori snuck a freezing popsicle into his mouth, revealing that the boy’s cheek was still not fully recovered, tears forming in Honey’s eyes.
"You're not fully recovered yet." Mori walked away, holding the popsicle that was once in Honey's mouth.
Honey now had a new plan up his sleeve; walking over near a table where two girls were indulging in tea, he started to put it into place.
"What are you ladies drinking?" Honey inquired.
"Um, Darjeeling tea, it's really good," one girl with a headband spoke.
"Yeah? What are you going to have to eat?"
"Well, I was going to have a sandwich," the other girl told him nervously.
"Oh? Know what you need? Some sweets! That tea would go well with something sweet. Like maybe some cake! Come on! What do you say?" Honey smiled largely, trying to encourage them.
"Well, it would be good with cake," one of them confessed shyly, weighing her options about possibly going against the new rules.
"It sure would," The other agreed quietly, but soon enough they were both rushing out the door, sadly denying the boy and offering apologies for not indulging his wants.
At another idea ending in failure, the older boy decided that he would try and gain some from his fellow members. Haruhi was not too far so he made his way over, lightly clutching the sleeve of her jacket to garner her attention.
"Haru-chan, am I a bad person?" He asked, looking down sadly, and when he finally made eye contact, a new sad, puppy dog expression was what encased his features. "I just don't understand why God hates me. What have I done?"
"Okay, fine. But only this once, got it?" Haruhi looked around, taking out something from her pocket.
"Is it a snack?" he immediately lit up.
"Yeah," She smiled at him, he opened his palm and she put a small box filled with kelp in his palm. "It's the same color as chocolate; try it!"
"N/n-chan! N/n-chan!" Honey called out, looking for the girl while discarding the box. Once he set his eyes on her, he rushed over. "There you are!"
"Hi Honey-senpai, We are just having some tea. Would you like to join us?"
"Yes! But N/n-chan, can I tell you something?" He muttered, looking down and posing as if he was nervous.
"Oh, sure!" Y/n exclaimed, sitting up and patting the seat next to her. "Are you alright?"
"It's been so hard lately; everyone has been ignoring me. I can handle not having cake. Sure, I miss it, but it's okay. Cake was just always there for me when other people weren't, sweets in general. I guess it just would be nice to have a little at the moment," he 'confessed,' laying his head on Y/n’s lap and staring up with dazzling eyes of hope. The fellow guests that she was entertaining from across the room, lit up at the interaction, whispering different words of adoration to one another.
"Honey-senpai," Y/n looked at him sadly and patted his forehead lightly. "I'm here for you; you don't need that silly cake," she lightly chuckled, reaching for something beside her as the boy lit up, working to sit back up. “I have this kelp Haruhi-chan gave me earlier! You can have some.”
He deflated, lying back down as another one of his plans failed. Yet this time he was gaining something else that was offering a similar comforting feeling like eating his cake did, which was being so close to Y/n. Honey took this time to break from his plan, enjoying the softness of her touch and the warmth spreading across from being so close. She continued trying to get conversation from the group yet the guests were preoccupied with their closeness and Honey was too in the moment while also conspiring about who would be next.
As three days passed since Honey was able to get his teeth on a sugary treat, the group had become more and more concerned about what might happen next. Honey had soon begun just pacing back and forth in front of a door leading to the beloved candy stash, clearly on edge and about to burst.
The group watched him at a table, some looking sadly, annoyed, and even nervously at him.
"He's going to crack," Tamaki commented.
"Would somebody please talk to him? He's scaring me," Hikaru expressed, staring down the boy who then slammed the door open.
"He's headed for the candy!" Kaoru yelled.
"No need to worry. We emptied out all the sweets," Kyoya reassured the group.
"Kyoya-senpai, you seem really chipper today," Haruhi noticed.
Honey looked sadly at the empty drawers, the one he opened not holding what he was craving but rather Tamaki’s teddy bear. In a fit of disappointment, Honey took the bear and slammed it—once again—to the ground.
"He keeps doing that to my teddy bear," Tamaki screamed, his hands in his hair as he watched his plush get abused. Honey ignored his cry, wobbling out of the room as if dehydrated from candy and falling to the ground, garnering a saddened look from Y/n.
"Well, there he goes," Kaoru commented.
"Oh, Honey-senpai," Y/n mumbled to no one in particular, now truly feeling bad for the male. She was about to walk over when long fingers wrapped over her wrist. Turning her head, she noticed it was the male by her side, Kyoya, stopping her from getting up.
"Don't. He's in a foul mood right now; it would be best if we weren't the ones to make it worse. Just stay by me so I can make sure you're safe." He mumbled the last part, a soft pink growing on his cheeks. Y/n’s eyes widened a bit, taken aback by his kind gesture and concern. He soon noticed his fingers lingering on her skin and moved them back onto his keyboard to type away, his eyes removing them from hers in a nervous fashion, something very unlike Kyoya.
"Three days and he gives up," Hikaru mentioned, the boy still just lying on the ground, stuffed bunny gripped by one hand.
"Um, Honey-senpai?" Tamaki walked over, tapping his shoulder. Scarily, Honey removed his face from the floor to shine an evil expression towards Tamaki before biting the hand that was near his face. "Somebody help me! He's eating my arm off!" Tamaki yelled, shaking around with Honey connected.
In response, Mori stood up, walking over by Honey and Tamaki. "Mitsukuni, don't take this out on other people," he spoke sternly, causing Honey to stop the rabid action.
"You saved me. I thought I was a goner," Tamaki sighed. Honey quickly turned around at Mori with an agitated face.
"It's disgraceful.”
"Takashi, you idiot!" Honey grabbed him, flipping the larger male over his shoulder so he landed on his back, bouncing across the floor. The whole group could not help but watch, most letting out gasps of horror. "A little bit isn't going to hurt me! You're so mean! You're such a hardhead! That's it. I hate you! I hate you, Takashi!" Honey screamed with tears in his eyes.
Mori just stared at the ground while Honey ran off. Haruhi and Y/n exchanged a look in decision as Haruhi went after Honey with Tamaki and Y/n walked over towards Mori.
"Hey, Mori-senpai," Hikaru began.
"That was harsh," Kaoru finished. "Will you be alright?" Yet he did not respond, just getting up only to walk a few uneven steps before leaning onto a table that just fell with the weight.
Y/n quickly rushed over, eyes running over his figure before placing her hand on his shoulder, interrupting his thinking.
"Mori-senpai, why did you do that?" Y/n asked, kneeling down beside his frame while his eyes caught onto hers.
"To help his teeth?" The twins questioned, confused on why Y/n asked that.
"No, why did you want to get him upset at you?"
"Why would he do that?"
"It makes no sense,” the twins shared, thoroughly thrown off at the line of thinking Y/n was sharing.
"Mori-senpai, it isn't your fault," Y/n softly spoke, gently taking one of his hands into hers to pull him up with her and stand. "You can't put this blame on yourself; you do so much for him.”
"This was my fault. Mitsukuni has a cavity because I'm careless. Twice before his naptime, I forgot to make him brush his teeth," Mori confessed, still letting her hand rest in his and staring down at it.
"But that's not really your responsibility," the twins expressed.
"But if Mitsukuni has to get false teeth, it'll be my fault.”
"That won't happen," Y/n lightly chuckled, using her other hand to rub at his arm before disconnecting her other one from his.
"I wouldn't be able to live with myself right now if he hadn't thrown me down."
"Because he felt at fault, Mori-senpai wanted some sort of punishment from Honey-senpai to make up for his failure,” Kyoya cleared up, Y/n and Mori walking back over towards the group.
"While that makes for a nice story and everything…" Hikaru started.
"It was just a little cavity, right?" Kaoru pondered as the doors opened, revealing Honey, Tamaki, and Haruhi, who were listening to the whole conversation.
"Well, there you have it, Honey-senpai. What will you do now?" Tamaki asked him, looking down at the older boy with his angered expression now changed into something kinder. Y/n moved away, back by Kyoya, while Mori stood there not noticing the return of the members.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry, Takashi! I promise! I won't forget to brush my teeth again," Honey cried, dashing over to give Mori a large hug. "I won't forget!”
A few days later the older male's cavity finally got cleared up, allowing the Host Club to decide to welcome sweets back into the club. At this return, Honey was, of course, very satisfied and back to his vivacious personality. Though, not everyone was having the same excited nature at the return. Kyoya was now crouched over a desk, looking at the receipts that were gained from buying all the sweets.
"What's wrong with Kyoya-senpai?" Haruhi asked, staring at the agitated man. “He looks depressed at something.”
"Cause Honey-senpai's back to eating snacks again," Hikaru reminded her.
"All those sweets get expensive," Kaoru commented.
"Oh look, it looks like we have a new guest," Tamaki mentioned beside the three, their eyes wandering over to the girl who stood at the front nervously.
Yet over at one of the couches, Y/n was chatting to Mori, both unknowing of the new visitor at the entrance. "Mori-senpai, I'm so happy you read that one,” she pointed down to the one lying on the coffee table before scrambling to find another in her bag. “You will love this one!" She triumphantly pulled it out, shoving the book in his hands. In response he nodded to her, taking the book in one hand and patting the top of her head with his other.
"Thank you, Y/n," He smiled lightly at her, the compliment harboring more than just thankfulness about the book behind it.
"No worries," she leaned over him to push the pages to a certain page in order to explain it. In curiosity, Honey made his way over to join the conversation. At his appearance, Mori looked up and also noticed the girl from the confession standing not too far away. He took the moment to get up and go over now with his own curiosity.
"N/n-chan, can you feed me some cake?" Honey asked hopefully, mouth already wide open in expectation.
Y/n, now noticing that Mori had left, nodded and took the fork. "Okay," she giggled, taking a piece and moving it towards his mouth.
"Well, Mori, I understand now. I know who you feel so strongly about, and it's okay,” the girl sighed, staring down at her shoes while speaking to the man. “To think they are so special to you,” her eyes now looked over to the area where Mori was just at seconds ago. “I just find it surprising that it's Honey, but it's so cute!" She exclaimed, putting her hands on her face with a faint blush. Haruhi watched the girl eagerly accept the idea that it was Honey, astonishment on her features. Mori decided against correcting her statement, allowing the assumption to be about the wrong member at that table.
"Congratulations! You've just taken your first big step into a brand-new world!" Renge congratulated her, popping up excitedly by the girl.
"Y/n, you should have some too." Mori walked back over as Y/n was working to feed another piece to Honey. Mori swiftly reached for a discarded fork on the table, swiping some up and feeding it to Y/n as Honey chomped on his portion being fed by Y/n. The fellow guests squealed watching the scene happen between the three.
“That’s right, ladies, it is not only Moe now!” Renge shared, jumping along happily with the girls.
“I do not think everyone would be happy with this type of ending,” Haruhi stated, watching the crowd get larger as the three interacted.
"No, no, no! Y/n, you shall always be a daddy's girl!" Tamaki declared, making his way over to them before being trampled by the group of girls rushing to catch a closer look.
“Oh, good grief.”
former chapter - Big Brother is a Prince! >> next chapter - Covering the Famous Host Club!
Ouran High School Host Club Boys reaction to accidentally startling their fem s/o awake and in the process s/o punches them in the face out of reflex.
~Tamaki Suoh~
Tamaki stumbled back from the bed, his hand flying up to cup his wounded nose. "Ow! My beautiful face, assaulted by the fist of my beloved!" he cried out dramatically.
Blinking the sleep from her eyes, his s/o sat up in bed looking startled and annoyed, her hair adorably mussed. "Tamaki? What the heck! Why did you wake me up like that?" She glared at him grumpily.
"Ah, my sweet, I'm so sorry! I only meant to gently rouse you from your slumber with a tender caress. I should have known better than to disturb a sleeping goddess!" Tamaki lamented, one hand still clutching his nose. "Can you ever forgive me?"
His s/o sighed, her annoyed expression softening a bit. "You shouldn't sneak up on me like that, you know I get startled easily. Is your nose okay? I didn't mean to hit you so hard..."
"It's quite alright, I'm sure it's not broken...probably," Tamaki said bravely, though his watering eyes suggested he was in a fair amount of pain. "I'm just happy you're awake now so I can bask in your radiant presence! The injury was worth it."
Rolling her eyes, his s/o reached out to pull Tamaki's hand away to examine his reddened nose. "You're ridiculous. But I'm sorry for punching you. Let me get you some ice, you dorky prince," she said fondly, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek before climbing out of bed.
Tamaki beamed, his pain forgotten as he swooned after her. "Ah, I'm so lucky to have such a caring and benevolent girlfriend! Truly I am blessed!" He continued his flowery praises as he trailed behind her to the kitchen, while his s/o just shook her head with a small smile, well used to her boyfriend's silly but endearing antics by now.
~Kyoya Ootori~
Kyoya staggers back, his hand going to his face where her fist connected. He blinks in surprise for a moment before regaining his composure. Seeing the look of shock and horror dawning on her face, he holds up a hand to forestall the apologies about to pour out.
"It's alright, that was entirely my fault," he says calmly, gingerly touching his cheek. "I should know better than to startle you awake so abruptly. Old reflexes die hard, hmm?"
He gives her a wry smile. "I'm just glad your punch wasn't at full strength. Remind me never to sneak up on you."
Kyoya straightens his glasses which were knocked askew. "I'm fine, really. No permanent damage done, except perhaps to my pride." His eyes twinkle with humor behind the lenses.
He reaches out to gently cup her face, thumb brushing her cheek. "I'm sorry for frightening you, my love. It won't happen again." Kyoya leans in to place a soft, reassuring kiss on her forehead.
"Now, why don't you go back to sleep? I'll be more careful not to disturb your rest next time." He tucks the covers back around her and brushes a lock of hair off her face tenderly.
"Sleep well. I'll have a ice pack ready for my battle wound in the morning," Kyoya teases lightly as he turns off the light, his silhouette pausing in the doorway. "I love you, even if you do have a mean right hook. Goodnight, darling."
~Kaoru Hitachiin~
Kaoru accidentally startles his darling awake, and in her disoriented state, she reflexively punches him right in the face. Kaoru reels back, his hand flying up to his throbbing nose.
"Ow! Geez, you have quite a right hook!" he exclaims, looking more shocked than angry.
His girlfriend sits up, blinking the sleep from her eyes. "Oh my gosh, Kaoru! I'm so sorry, you startled me and I just reacted without thinking!" She reaches out to gently touch his face, concern etched on her features.
Kaoru can't help but chuckle, even as he gingerly touches his tender nose. "No, no, it's my fault. I shouldn't have woken you up so abruptly. Guess I learned my lesson, huh?"
He grins at her, that playful Hitachiin sparkle already returning to his amber eyes. "I didn't realize I was dating such a fierce warrior woman. Remind me to never get on your bad side!"
She rolls her eyes but smiles, relieved he's not upset. "Here, let me get you some ice for that."
As she starts to get up, Kaoru catches her hand. "In a minute. I think you owe me a kiss first, considering you just socked your loving boyfriend in the face." His tone is teasing, eyebrows raised expectantly.
Laughing softly, she leans in and presses a gentle kiss to his lips. "There. Am I forgiven?"
"Hmm, it's a start," Kaoru grins, pulling her in for a deeper, lingering kiss, the pain in his nose already forgotten. After all, Kaoru is resilient, good-natured, and certainly not one to hold a grudge over an accident, especially when it comes to the girl he loves.
~Hitachiin Hikaru~
Hikaru hadn't meant to startle her. Really, he hadn't. He'd just been excited to show her the new designer jacket he'd gotten, practically bouncing into her room where she'd been taking an afternoon nap. In his typical impulsive fashion, he hadn't considered that suddenly shaking someone awake might not be the best approach.
"Hey! Wake up, look at—" WHACK!
His darling's fist connected squarely with his nose before either of them fully processed what was happening. He stumbled backward, more shocked than hurt, amber eyes wide as he clutched his face.
"Hikaru!" she gasped, now fully awake and horrified. "Oh my god, I'm so sorry!"
For a moment, he just stared at her, mouth slightly open. Then, in true Hitachiin fashion, his lips quirked into a devilish grin despite his watering eyes. "You know," he drawled, "if you wanted to rearrange my face, you could have just asked. Though I guess then Kaoru and I really would look different."
"This isn't funny!" she protested, scrambling out of bed to check his face. "You're bleeding!"
"Just a little," he shrugged, though he was clearly enjoying her fussing over him. "But wait until Kaoru hears about this. He'll never let me live it down." His expression suddenly turned thoughtful. "Though... maybe we shouldn't tell him right away. You could always punch him too, even things out?"
"Hikaru!"
"Kidding, kidding!" he laughed, catching her hands in his as she tried to swat at him again. "Though you do have a mean right hook. Remind me never to surprise you again."
"You better not," she muttered, but she was smiling now too. "What were you so excited about anyway?"
"Oh right!" Just like that, his earlier enthusiasm returned full force, momentarily forgetting about his throbbing nose. "Look at this jacket! Isn't it amazing? Kaoru got a similar one but in a different color because..."
He launched into an animated explanation about the designer and the subtle differences between his and Kaoru's pieces, gesturing wildly with one hand while the other still held an ice pack to his face. Despite the circumstances, his childlike excitement was as endearing as ever.

Kaoru loves seeing you smile, he is happy with you and want to share that same happiness with you, he is playful and constantly joking but the smiles he gives you are always sincere and full of love, is more likely that he will end up making you smile by simply sharing that happiness, and yet making you smile makes him smile even more, his smile softens just right before growing wide again
Hikaru Hitachiin
Hikaru is always trying to make you laugh, he is constantly joking and teasing you but deep down he actually takes some pride on making you smile and laugh so whenever he succeds he can't help but laugh too, something he tries to cover up with a cocky smirk but he can't stop the lovely and sincere smile that appeared in his lips first
Kyoka Ootori
It doesn't happens always, most of the time his smile is polite or even a teasing one, he grew to have a liking for bothering you and tease you, but there are times where it feels like is just you two in the world, when he feels truly happy, when you smile at him and he can't help but smile too, a sincere smile that shows a hint of vulnerability, always accompanied by a content sigh
Mitsukuni Haninozuka
Of course Honey-senpai smiles when you do! He have found his happiness and the freedom to express that same happiness and, you being here with him only makes him feel even happier so there is no reason for him to don't show that happiness! Besides, his laugh tend to be contagious so you will probably end up laughing with him
Takashi Morinozuka
Mori normally doesn't show much his feelings, he is just stoic by nature, but he can't deny how happy he is to have you around, whenever you express, directly or indirectly, that you are happy with him, that his presence makes you happy he can't and won't stop the small smile that grows in his lips, a smile that is only dedicated to you
Finally writing for another one of my underrated kings
CLOSE ENOUGH
A Kaoru Hitachiin x Reader fic
TW:English isn't my mother tongue so you'll probably read some vocabulary/grammar errors!
Plot:After one of the exchanged student programs is over and the students of Ouran High come back to their school a familiar girl comes to visit the host club to see one of her favourite people. Haruhi, the new member of the club, is quite confused with who this girl is. So she asked one of her closest friends what's her relationship with his brother.
A quiet laughter could be heard from one of the host club's red couches. On said couch Kaoru Hitachiin and a girl named Y/N L/N were sitting. Both of them were talking to each other without a care for the people that were in the club.
Haruhi the newest member of the host club wasn't familiar with the girl and she was quite surprised when she first entered the host club. Y/N didn't wear the school uniform but a casual outfit from a fancy brand.
-Y/N you're back!
Kaoru's voice made Y/N's smile widen with joy.
-I just got back. I decided to come here first to see you and then go home.
Haruhi's first and short interaction with the girl was a "thank you" from her for serving her tea before she quickly turned to continue her conversation with the youngest Hitachiin.
None of the other hostes were able to greet Y/N properly. Kaoru dragged her all the way to the farthest couch making it obvious to his friends that this time was about him and the girl.
-I've never seen Kaoru talk this much to someone.
She said out loud mostly to herself. Hikaru looked at her and turned to look at his brother. He was still smiling.
- I guess.
- Who is she? I mean I caught her name but what's all your relationship with her?
For a moment Hikaru stayed quiet like he was debating if he was going to answer to her or not but after a deep breath he started talking again.
-Me and Kaoru met Y/N some time before we joined the host club.
A younger Y/N was walking outside to one of Ouran's gardens. In her hand a letter from one of the Hitachiins. She was excited because the day before she finally got the guts to write a love confession to her crush, Kaoru and today she got a letter to come meet her.
A familiar silhouette came to her view but as she walked closer she stopped. Thinking again about what she heard of her classmates, a prank the twins make every time a girl confessed her feelings to them. They didn't say much, they never did because they always come back crying but they always say to be careful with your confession.
-Hello.
The girl greeted the boy.
-So you are the one who wrote the letter?
Y/N nodded a little excited. After all she had her crush in front of her. She stared at him like a lovesick puppy. Looking at his eyes remembering the first time they met.
It was a year prior. The interaction was short but still memorable. He was waiting for his brother outside meanwhile you were carrying some stuff the teacher asked you to carry to his next class. The wind took some papers and you started running to get them. He heard your scream and caught the papers for you.
- You know...
His voice brought you back to reality.
-I'm not really Kaoru. I'm his twin Hikaru.
Time stopped.
- You aren't... Kaoru?
That's not possible. You were sure he was him. It might sound weird but after your first interaction you started paying attention to the twins to understand who was who and you come to the realisation that Kaoru had a more gentle expression than his brother. Even now you could see that he was standing in front of you.
-But I thought you were him...
The boy was expecting the usual answer he and his brother always get but he got an answer he never could have image.
-I was sure you were Kaoru but I guess I made a mistake. It seems like I wasn't ready to confess to your brother.
- Huh?
-... Please tell your brother that I'm sorry that I bothered him and... And I'd really like to hang out with him to get to know him better.
- I never got out of the bushes. Both of us were in shock. Kaoru more than me. One week later Kaoru approached Y/N again and invited her to come eat lunch with us.
- Her answer was really honest.
- Yeah. I'm sure that's why Kaoru started to like her. She was right all along and even when we tried to fool her she wanted to get to know him to be sure she won't make the same mistake.
-So is Y/N dating Kaoru?
Hikaru stopped doing whatever he was occupying himself with and looked at his brother and the girl who was sitting with him. They looked really happy together.
- No.
-No?
Haruhi asked kinda surprised.
- Y/N left with the exchanged program and Kaoru wasn't able to ask her out. Even though they talked daily a confession from the phone isn't Kaoru's ideal way to confess.
-So now they just make up from their lost time?
Honey jumped to the conversation. Hikaru nodded to answer his question. As they were ready to ask more the "couple" walked up to them.
-So see you next monday?
- Yeah! You'll eat with us right? You'll get to meet Haruhi.
Y/N nodded
-Of course, I'm really excited to hear the whole story of how a girl joined the host club.
She said and turned from Kaoru to look at Haruhi.
As she finished her sentence Tamaki ran up to Kaoru and yelled at him.
-YOU TOLD HER!!!
-Chill out boss Y/N is trustworthy!
-Don't worry Tamaki senpai. Your secret is safe with me. After all Kaoru told me you wanted miss Fujioka to hang out with more girls. Now that I'm here I believe that I'm the right person to hang out with.
Y/N grabbed Haruhi's hand and raised it up with her's.
- What do you say miss Fujioka?
-Yesh sure.
Haruhi answered. Her tone was a mix of confusion and calmness.
-Ah! Of course the young lady of the L/N family would be so kind! Thank you Y/N!
Tamaki said dramatically and grabbed both of Y/N's hands to sake them.
That made her smile and Haruhi to deadpan.
-Anyway Y/N has to go home now.
Kaoru placed his hand to Y/N shoulder. Signaling Tamaki to let her go.
You don't have to but can you do the Hosts (from OHSHC) but not Haruhi when they find out their crush (female if you may) is being teased by their admirers because they're often together?
Ouran HighSchool Host Club ~Finding out their crush is being bullied by their fans~
Manga/anime: Ouran HighSchool Host Club
Warnings: nothing
(Y/N): your name
(S/O): significant other
Premise
S/O is walking calmly in the garden of Ouran HighSchool, enjoying the light breeze which ruffles his hair.
However, sounds of sobbing suddenly distracts him from the peace he was feeling: (Y/N), the girl he's madly in love with, is crying in a remote corner, with her clothes torn and her hair messed up.
S. Tamaki
He'll immediately run to you, shocked
When he finds out his fans have reduced you like that, he'll be shocked and furious: not only the girl he loves is destroyed, both physically and mentally, but she's so also due to him
Nevertheless, what will shock you the most will be the fact he'll be very quiet
It'll probably take him several days to find a solution, and he'll ask the other Hosts what to do (especially Haruhi, as she's a girl)
After a week of reflection, he'll make an announcement in front of all his fans: "I'm very flattered by your love, but what you did to my friend -he'll be tempted to say girlfriend- is unacceptable. If something like this happens again, we'll be forced to close our Host Club."
O. Kyoya
He'll probably be the one who will react coldest, but that doesn't mean he'll be less affected than the others
He'll sit next to you and give you a handkerchief to dry your tears in a rather cold way even if he'll be suffering inside
Then, he'll help you to go to wash your face, and he'll give you his clothes to change you
It'll then seem he won't take action, but in reality he'll threaten write to all his fans involved
From that day on, he'll stay closer to you in school's corridors and always accompany you home and to school to prevent something like that from happening again
H. Hikaru
He won't have the best reaction: as soon as he notices how reduced you are, he'll almost snap, and he'll almost lose his mind and freak out when he finds out he's the cause of what happened to you
In fact, he'll probably increase your crying, and he'll feel terribly bad about it
However, after about ten minutes he'll calm down, taking a deep breath, and hold you in his arms, rubbing your back and murmuring some apology to you
He'll ask his brother and Kyoya for help to find out who did that to you and Tamaki to chase everyone involved out of school
If Tamaki can't do it, he'll always be close to you, even going so far as to let you stay with him when he's at the Host Club
H. Kaoru
His first thought will be to calm you down: he won't care why you're crying, he'll just hug you tightly
After calming you down, he'll try to convince you to tell him who did that to you
When you tell him that, he'll freeze for a moment, but he'll soon recover and come back to hold you tighter than before, telling you how brave and strong you are, but also to come to him if it happens again
He'll ask his brother to help him to protect you: from then on, Kaoru will stay close to you like a bodyguard whenever he can, Hikaru will watch you from afar when his twin can't be close to you
He'll also make a promise to himself, that's never to let anyone hurt you like that again
H. Mitsukuni (Honey)
He'll immediately run towards you, hugging you tightly
When he finds out those who did that to you are his fans, his face will darken, and he'll break your embrace, give you Usa-chan and run away to those responsible for your situation
After arriving at his fans, he'll tell them to leave you alone, appearing calm on the outside and behaving as usual, but seething with anger on the inside
After this, he'll return to you to take Usa-chan back and whisper compliments to you, so that you won't think about the words of your attackers
He won't let any more unpleasant things happen to you, because he's sweet and kind, but if someone he loves gets hurt by someone...
M. Takashi (Mori)
At first he won't know how to react, so he'll stare at you for a few seconds and then give you some embarrassing pats on the head
"Y/N." "…Yes?" "What's wrong?"
After you explain what happened, he'll nod and awkwardly wrap his arm around you protectively
The next day (he'll have had to go to ask the other Hosts for advice and their approval on what he intends to do) he'll go to his fans and tell them to leave you alone
He won't care what happens next or if they're no longer his fans: for him the important thing is your happiness and security
