It had only been one or two times that he had noticed it, since Rain didn't sit at that spot in the hall often, but over the last few weeks he noticed one of his classmates following after a group of giggling girls gowned in.... yellow (he failed to think of a good word that started with 'g' to describe that hue). So today he decided that he wanted to play along as well.

Packing up his computer and storing it in his bag, the boy adjusted his glasses and followed after the girl who was following after the herd. As he trailed casually behind her, the young man went through a mental list of names in his head. Who was she again....? Second row, third seat....

Once the other females were gone and the petite blonde was left peering after them, Rain arched an eyebrow. "Dunning-san, playing hide-and-seek against some unsuspecting victims now, are we?" Ah, he hoped that was the right name.

Rain was just about to insist that, just because he was missing out on the activities of the Host Club, by no means did it mean that Anita couldn't enjoy herself there, when..... Hani-senpai released the infamous puppy-eyes of doom that Rain had heard so many stories about. And they were as potent as the stories told. "Erk..." he uttered involuntarily, taking a small step back and swallowing hard.

All while growing up, he had been a victim of his sister's puppy eyes. And Lilly had trained him early on that to disobey the puppy eyes was to break the law (although, he had always been convinced it was supposed to be used by the younger sibling, but everyone else seemed convinced it was the cuter one). Thus, this attack from the cute Senpai (he would admit, though it was strictly based on the fact that the blonde looked no more than five years old) caught him off-guard.

Yet before he could grudgingly agree to come along to the Host Club (no more than five minutes, he really did have to be somewhere), another character popped up out of

She really didn't expect the senior's reaction. Such disappointment over something so simple! The girl gently placed a hand over her frown and gave a look of sympathetic contemplation. Just because she didn't want to go alone didn't mean that she hated him! Those words matched with those eyes just made her feel guilty. Who could say no to the boy after an attack like that? Her blue eyes turned to look at Rain again. By his own reaction, it was clear that even with his club to get to there was no way that he could say no now either. Very well played! She couldn't say that she wasn't thankful about the fact that Rain would have to cave, too. At least... that's what she thought was going to happen until a rather grim-looking person came into the scene.

Once again, Anita nearly jumped at the sudden entrance, but managed to keep herself from doing so. Now this one was a spook. It rarely got weirder than a guy snooping around halls with a puppet in a black cloak. Sure, she snooped, but... she was nothing compared to that 3rd year. "What

Hani knew he had them. Looking at Rain's reaction and then at Anita's it was clear that he was going to be able to bring them with him when all of a sudden. Dropping his puppy eyes and replacing it with a surprised alert look to his face, Hani sensed the presence behind him but didn't flinch. He was used to people come up behind him and reflexively set himself to defense mode, especially from all the combat training he's done, but he knew he was in a school environment. Besides, that utterly creepy presence just had to be...

Lifting his head up and seeing the expected Nekozawa towering over him with his usual puppet of doom, the blond third year smiled and greeted him back. "Neko-chan~♥ What's up?"

Rain took this moment of distraction to chance a look down at his watch. "Ahhh.... Now I only have 10 minutes..." Apparently he had stood talking a little longer than he should have. "I'm terribly sorry, Haninozuka-senpai, Nekozawa-senpai." Offering a bow to both of them, the red head backed up a step and shifted his school bag from one hand to the other

Anita was eagerly awaiting an answer to the question, but before an answer could be obtained Rain stepped in with a minor interruption. He was leaving just when she thought that they'd have a chance to go to the Host Club with Haninozuka. It was mildly disappointing, but more importantly she'd have to think of a way to excuse herself now that he was leaving. Or... so she thought. And that's when Rain turned back to her. The polite smile was returned with one of her own, though that was shifted into one of surprise when he grabbed her arm. Apparently she was going along, too. It seemed odd, but at least she wouldn't have to think of any excuses then. She gave a quick wave of parting to the two seniors and quickly stepped along with the taller 2nd year

He shook his head. "Think nothing of it. I'm sure visiting the Host Club while still a member of the Ouran Academy will eventually become inevitable. Almost like... a right of passage." The tall male shrugged his shoulders as he trailed off. "Though it is certain that there are several odd characters that are associated with the Host Club. I'm not too sure if I'm ready to become one of those characters."

Rain gave a heavy sigh, mussing up his red hair as he glanced down at the watch on his wrist. "Ahh... I suppose I really must be going." His blue eyes shifted back over to Anita. "Well then, Dunning-san, it was a pleasure meeting you. Your Red-Herring must excuse himself at this moment." He offered the girl a polite bow. "I shall see you in class tomorrow." With a quirked smile, the young man stepped around her and continued on his way down the pink halls.

Well, at least he didn't mind. That was good. She nodded happily at his statement, though she was still wondering what the complete list of the said odd characters looked like. Chances were that that discovery would have to wait some time now, but at least it was now something definitely on her to-do list. After all, she was curious from the start, but the conversation that just took place made her that much more intrigued. "If that's the case, then just be sure to tell me before you go. Well... if you're able to, that is. They just might abduct you the next time." Anita suggested jokingly and with a laugh even though she was actually dead serious about the statement.

"It was a pleasure meeting you, too. Have a lovely time at your club!" His bow was met with a equally polite curtsy before she gave a wave goodbye. She watched him for a moment as he walked away. Silently, she was still contemplating a few things in her mind, though she turned away herself soon after. How very strange that all was!
