Of course, it was Tamaki's idea. He woke us up with a call at 5:30 am in the morning, saying he wanted to go to a commoner's restaurant for lunch. For one, it was late notice, and maybe a bit early for some of us… So Kyoya and Hani weren't very happy. Six and a half hours later, we all met up at my apartment and decided who would ride together. Of course, Hikaru and Kaoru went with each other, as well as Hani and Mori. I chose to ride with Tamaki because I wanted to discuss his crazy idea. Kyoya tagged along to keep an eye on Tamaki. I didn't object, though Tamaki whined something about spending quality time with his "daughter". I'll admit that I don't quite hate it when he calls me that. Though it is annoying most of the time.

"First of all, where are we going?" I asked as I shut the door behind me. He looked at me and smiled, the same look in his eyes that he gets when he's excited about something that has to do with commoners.

"We're going to a commoner's restaurant called A Taste of Sekai. I'm sure you've heard of it, right? It has foreign food from all over the world!"

"Oh yeah. I've been there. Enough times to try everything on the menu."

Tamaki looked amazed at this.

"Really? How many things are on the menu?"

I paused to think about it for a moment.

"Um, about ten or twelve, if you include the desserts."

Tamaki's amazement shrank.

"Oh. I thought there were more…"

He seemed a little disappointed.

"Anyway, second, why do I have to come along? Why can't you just decide amongst yourselves?"

He shook his head as if I didn't understand.

"Oh Haruhi. You see, we need a commoner to guide us in the unfamiliar world of commoners. So, naturally, we'd turn to you. And besides," He tilted my chin up to his face. "Who wouldn't want to spend lunch with us?" I pushed him back into his seat and turned to face the window with my arms crossed.

"Me." I grunted.

I sighed, then faced him again.

"Still, that doesn't explain why I have to wear this!"

I tugged at the dress they made me wear. It was Hikaru and Kaoru's design, and they claimed that they were inspired by the fact that I like strawberries so much. I said it looked more like it was meant for Christmas rather than summer, because of the combination of dark turquoise-green and little red strawberries. It came with a matching hat with a red ribbon on it.

"Why, to prepare you for summer, of course." Tamaki answered with a faint blush. I doubted that.

"What's your real reason?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

His blush was definitely seen then.

"Aww. You're so cute!" He hugged me tightly.

"Ow. Senpai! You're squeezing me too hard!" I cried out.

He let go and shyly looked down at his fingers, which were tapping together. I sighed. This was going to be a long day…
