𐙚 tamaki suoh
tamaki is tamaki so obviously, he’d go all out to confess. you had been in frequent contact because you were commissioned to make costumes for the host club. you’d always meet at the same spot to discuss the costumes, it was in the courtyard on a stone bench surrounded by rose bushes under an arch. you believed it gave you inspiration. every time you’d met, you would chat for hours and hours - some conversations weren’t even about the host club, it was just about your lives. obviously tamaki would drop a compliment or flirty comment here and there but, you both just boiled it down to him being a host. he just can’t resist complimenting beautiful people! although that was true, the host club had to endure the many, many, many… many… complaints from tamaki about how much he missed you or wanted to see you more so they HAD to knock some sense into him (which hikaru and kaoru thoroughly enjoyed doing).
as if a light bulb went off, tamaki jumped into shock about his own feelings “oh, you’re right, you beautiful twins! how could i be so blind? i like them!!” after making the realisation about 5 minutes ago, he HAD to confess immediately. he can’t contain himself. thankfully for him, you guys had a little meeting at your usual spot RIGHT NOW! as he’s walking to your spot, his mind is racing with all kinds of things ‘what if you haven’t made the realisation that you like him yet?’ or worst of all, what if you don’t like him at all?! nah, he’s way too handsome and charming. he arrives at your spot and you’re already there, unaware of his presence. he stares at you for a moment… he always knew you were beautiful but now he's seeing you in a completely different light. all the flowers surrounding you, all the sculptures and beautiful architecture of the academy couldn't overshadow your beauty in this moment. you feel eyes on the back of your head causing you to turn, you're met with tamaki's handsome face
"oh, hello tamaki!" you smile and tamaki could barely contain himself!! he happily plonks himself next to you practically almost bouncing out of his seat "what's got you so excited?" you ask, giggling at his silly antics "y/n..." he suddenly calms down "i have a confession i need to make..." you hold your breath, "y/n, over these last few weeks... i've felt so much closer to you..." he gently takes your hand in his "and i've started to realise that my feelings... go beyond just a close friendship." he pauses just to gaze into your eyes. he watches your eyes twinkle; you had felt the exact same way but never ever planned on telling tamaki in fear that you'd ruin the close relationship. there is silence for a while causing tamaki to worry a bit, was he not as charming as he had thought? he gulped loudly which snapped you out of your shocked trance "oh my-i'm so sorry-!" you finally spoke "i-i like you too, tamaki!" you giggle "i realised i hadn't actually said it out loud. i couldn't leave you hanging." you smile cheekily. you and tamaki shared a few giggles for a while after both feeling rather giddy about the confession and acceptance of said confession.
𐙚 kyoya ootori
after seeing right through kyoya’s business tactics, you kept in contact. tamaki said you guys were friends but kyoya said otherwise. kyoya just said that you both enjoyed intelligent conversations which he doesn’t get in the host club (tamaki was quite upset when he said this), and that was the only reason you still spoke. unfortunately for kyoya, he’s not stupid. he can recognise his feelings are… going astray…
he never ever ever planned on confessing, to be honest he was still a bit in denial about the whole thing. unfortunately, tamaki saw a slight change in the way kyoya talks about you which lead him to pester him all day everyday, “you must confess kyoya! there’s nothing more beautiful than being in love!” but little does kyoya know - your feelings are also going astray.
you were almost certain that kyoya wouldn’t confess and you were prepared to hide your feelings forever as well. until you reached a breaking point. you just wanted to confess and let it out, no matter the outcome. you were hanging out with kyoya, as usual but you were both acting off; acting shy. you prepared a small letter for kyoya which you pulled out once the conversation ended. you slid it towards him, he picked it up with a puzzled look “what’s this?” he asks, you don’t answer. he slowly unfolds the paper and begins to read it. as he is reading, it finally clicks with him that this was you confessing your love. he froze at this revelation as a million things ran through his mind. should he say no because he's a host, a host can't have a girlfriend surely? but also, he was so insistent that he did not like you! but yet he was sat here seriously contemplating accepting your love! for the first time, kyoya was stumped. you felt sick watching his reaction, it made you want to run away or snatch the paper out of his hand, or crawl into a ball on the floor. but instead, you just waited. kyoya takes a deep breath folding the paper back into its original form "y/n... i appreciate the sentiment." it was official. you had been rejected "and i accept." had you died? and gone to heaven? "pardon?" you ask in disbelief "i accept your confession. i've become... fond of you as well." you can tell it sort of irks him to admit it but by the gods, you were thrilled!! you smile widely at the outcome of your confession and kyoya lets out a small smirk leaving your cheeks flushed pink.
𐙚 haruhi fujioka
after haruhi helped you study (and still does, time to time) you had grown closer as friends which is shocking in itself seeing as haruhi reaaalllyyy didn’t want to spend her time helping you studying lol. so, to spend her free time hanging out with you was shocking for everyone involved!
you frequented the host club partially to see your friend haruhi and partially for the handsome young men. you were a ‘host hopper’ you just loved talking with handsome men! who doesn’t! haruhi sort of notices that she felt a certain way when she watched her fellow host members flirt with you, and it didn’t make her feel very good. she kept trying to remind herself that flirting with you was their duty as a host. but, it still got to her. a lot. the rest of the host club always teased her about it as well which just made it even more unbearable. as if matters couldn’t get ANY worse, hikaru and kaoru took a great interest in you. so much so they asked you out (yes, both of them.) and this just made haruhi so, so sad. she confided in mei who shouted at haruhi to WAKE THE HELL UP! haruhi was in love!! and shouldn’t let those devilish incestous twins stand in her way!! but haruhi just shook her head, she didn’t want to ruin yours or the twins chance at love.
haruhi was walking around her local town and decided to take a walk through the park as it was sunny. to her absolute dismay, she saw you. with the twins. why was the date here?!? she tried to scurry away before being spotted but failed miserably, you spotted haruhi and shouted for her. you ran towards her leaving the twins behind “oh my god, haruhi! hi!” she reluctantly turned around “hi y/n…….” you begin to yap to haruhi about your day with twins and in response, all haruhi could muster up was “mhm” “yeah, yeah…” “oh” after a while haruhi speaks up “yeah, that’s nice. i think i’m gonna go… sorry…” your eyebrows furrow, “wait, haruhi, what’s wrong?” “no, nothing.” she tries to shrug it off “no, tell me! you’re acting weird.” you push for an answer. “i just…” haruhi begins to speak but can’t get out what she’s feeling “c’mon haruhi! tell me!” you pressure her even more “you can’t date the twins!” she blurts out. she covers her mouth in shock while you give her a puzzled look “huh? why?” you ask, haruhi simply shakes her head and keeps her hands over her mouth. you remove her hands from her mouth and once again ask, why? she sighs realising she can’t hide her feelings any longer “because… i want to date you! and i’m sorry! i know thats selfish and it’s stupid to be jealous—” you interrupt her “haruhi- i-i would love to date you.” her eyes widen “you would? really?” “yes!!” you exclaim. you take her in your arms squeezing her so tight she can barely breathe (but honestly she doesn’t care, she’s so happy.) suddenly haruhi pulls away “wait, what about the twins?” your smile drops “uh oh.” kaoru and hikaru are already walking towards you two. as they reach you, you begin explaining yourself “hey guys, listen i—” “ugh, finally you two confessed!” hikaru groans. you and haruhi look at each other in confusion “everyone knew you liked each other. me and hikaru thought we could speed up the process” kaoru winks cheekily. oh my god, it was all a plan to get haruhi to confess!!!
𐙚 hikaru hitachiin
after moving around a lot for the last 3 years, you had finally settled down in ouran academy. fortunately, you had kept in contact with hikaru hitachiin. once at ouran, you frequently hung out with hikaru. the first time you saw each other again after years, you both immediately notice how the other person was so attractive. you had both done a lot of growing up.
hikaru could go one of two ways when confessing; romantic or dramatic. if nobody else is in his way, he’ll do it romantically or his jealously will get the better of it and then he’ll do it dramatically. thankfully in this situation, you’re new to ouran and hikaru is your only close companion so no competition today! it was pretty easy for him to decide he’s going to confess, you’re both fit, rich and you can tell the twins apart. you’re everything he could dream of.
hikaru confidently asks you out, he says he’s gonna take you to one of the finest restaurants in tokyo which you obviously happily accept. he doesn’t necessarily ‘confess’ anything quite yet, he just asks you out to show you around. fine dining was an understatement, the place hikaru took you was otherworldly even for someone as rich as yourself - you could tell he splurged on this. he’d ask you questions for the whole time you were there, truly intrigued by what you had to say. he was asking how your life had been, the places you had travelled, the people you had met (he didn’t wanna hear about other boys though, lol). after wining (not really) and dining you, he had somewhere else to take you but it was a secret. he had his chauffeur take you guys to… the beach! to spend the rest of your evening there! hikaru and you were fancy sure, but hikaru had began to love the common things in life like the beach.
he holds your hand as you walk along the sand, letting the water brush against your feet gently. he confesses that he has ulterior motives for asking you out “oh you do?” you ask cautiously, honestly you were hoping this would be the case “i had something i wanted to tell you. something i’ve felt since we were kids.” you couldn’t help but begin to blush. he suddenly stops walking while still holding your hand “i like you, y/n.” you smile widely “hikaru i-i like you too.” hikaru grins “but i’m kaoru?” you slap his shoulder “i know it’s you hikaru!” he laughs cheekily “okay, okay, sorry. just had to make sure.” he winks.
𐙚 kaoru hitachiin
one day at your usual quiet workplace, there was a disturbance. you recognised this disturbance, it was haruhi and the six handsome young men she brings around sometimes. one of the six men kept catching your eye and it seems you caught his too as you kept accidentally making eye contact. you had seen them before, once or twice and kaoru was always pining for your attention.
kaoru is cute so obviously, his confession is going to be cute. after the host club touch every item in the shop and stare at it in awe, they leave. you shrug your shoulders and laugh at their stupidity but while you’re doing that, kaoru is outside exclaiming that he dropped his wallet in the shop! gasp! he better run back in and get it… alone… yes, even without hikaru. to be frank, hikaru is a little offended but soon realises, he’s probably up to something. so, kaoru is reluctantly let go by the group to go back to the shop. he nonchalantly walks through the automatic doors and begins to browse. you notice him once again, he’s hard to miss as he’s the only one wearing bloody ralph lauren. anyways, you think nothing of it until you’re met face to face with him at the till. he awkwardly smirks “sorry for me and my friends.” you tilt your head in confusion “for being so loud and curious.” you let a small smile creep out “it’s okay. it was entertaining anyways.” you accept his apology and he chuckles “good, i’m glad.” after that, you both just stand there… looking at each other… he looks nervous and you’re just straight up confused, did he come back just to apologise? he coughs and continues “my names kaoru by the way, what’s yours?” “y/n.” you reply as you put your hand out for kaoru to shake. he takes your hand gently and shakes. it felt natural to be holding hands with him for some reason. “do you remember me? from last time?” he grins cheekily which prompts you to roll your eyes “i may recognise you.” his grin widens “well, i definitely remember you.” your eyes widen “you’re beautiful.” although each word was said with utter confidence, his red cheeks and ears said otherwise. you smile sheepishly “oh- thank you… kaoru…” he coughs nervously and scratches his neck “could i get your number?” this time, all the confidence in his voice fades. he was clearly very nervous to ask and even more nervous for the response. you look around for any lingering customers nearby, thankfully the coast was clear so, you grabbed a scrap bit of paper and wrote your number down. you slide it across the counter to kaoru, he took it with zero hesitation (and a huge smile across his face) “so i’ll drop you a text and maybe i can take you out?” he asks cheerfully “yeah, that sounds nice.” you accept the invitation. kaoru waves goodbye sheepishly while clutching your number in his hand and heads out the doors once again. a super rich, handsome guy just confessed his feelings to you and asked you out!! is this a dream come true?!
𐙚 takashi morinozuka
you and mori were now on casual terms, he wasn’t just your kendo teacher anymore. he was your kendo teacher who was your friend! and as far as confessing goes, you’re gonna have to be the one to do it. mori can definitely recognise he has romantic feelings toward you but actually expressing them? yeah no.
and to be quite frank, because of mori’s lack of expression, you had also questioned whether it was a good idea to confess to him but it was taking over your LIFE. you had to let it out!! although you hadn’t planned how you were going to do it yet. until, you were in kendo with mori as usually and for some reason you just kept messing up which was so unlike you, because of this mori pulled you aside. “what’s wrong?” mori asks bluntly although his face was full of remorse, bless him “i-i just can’t focus.” you admit. you sigh as you drop to the floor, you knew exactly why you couldn’t focus. mori joins you on the floor and his face is coloured with confusion “why?” he tries to dig deeper into the problem. him asking you all these questions whilst also being the answer for them made you red as a tomato which just made him even more puzzled.
“i don’t think i can say.” you turn your head away trying your best to avoid any eye contact but mori boldly places his finger on your cheek and gently brings you back to face him “say.” you lick your lips nervously “mori-senpai… i-i— i like you!” you blurt out “b-but i don’t want this to affect our relationship! both as teacher and student, and as friends!” you quickly try to do any sort of damage control possible. you were learning from the best teacher (and friend), and the thought of losing him was worse than being rejected. but, mori didn’t say anything. he just watched you do your damage control in complete neutrality. mori finally decides to speak up “hm.” is all he says. you stop speaking (finally) and just sit in silence with him, “that must’ve been hard for you.” “huh?” is all you could say “that was nice. thank you, y/n.” you didn’t know what to say or do, so you simply didn’t do anything “i like you too.” your jaw was left agape, you just confessed and so did mori! but he said it with such grace and coolness! your first instinct after picking your jaw off the floor was to jump in his arms and that’s exactly what you did. mori caught you in his arms and shyly squeezed you tight. it all worked out in the end.
