Yes, this commoners' coffee is actually not that bad! O__O I am not so worried about my father anymore! XD

Ah, snow. I sort of miss snow. I remember playing in it when I was a little kid. *Mai nods*

*looks up, startled* Nothing...thank you.

I used to really like snow. But I'm not a fan of cold. It's pretty, yes, but that's about all I like about it. I prefer heat.

I used t-to love playing in th-the snow wh-when I was younger... *Steals a glance at both Kyoya and Hikaru and blushes*

@Stress- "Your tea platter has been served. Jasmine tea can get a rather bitter if you let it steep too long, however we leave the determination of the taste up to you."

((It hasn't snowed in San Francisco and the immediate area since before I was born.))

-Looks back to Eyea waiting for her response.-

*smiles slightly as she notices Stress's shyness* I love the snow. We don't get it here often, and this is the third time this winter. School will probably be out for a week again.

A-Arigato gozaimasu, Ky-Kyoya-san.

*gently she lifts the tea bag out of the pot and pours herself a cup of tea*

Ah.. this is amazing *she takes a sip and smiles to herself*

-Sits down across from Eyea seeing that she is enjoying being engaged in chatter, perhaps that is what she needs to cheer up.-

Just let me know when you've decided on your drink and breakfast pastry, Ojou-sama.

-Begins writing in his notorious black folder again, the light reflecting off of his glasses hides his facial expression.-

*drinks more of her coffee, and starts feeling more awake*
((I wish i could really go for some coffee now.))

((So do I, Miiyako, except real tea...))

*sighs happily to herself as she takes another sip of tea*

Th-This is amazing. Ari-Arigato, Kyoya-san

*smiles at all of them* Snow i love snow and lots of cold things. Rain and playing in it oh man i miss those days.

*studies the dark haired man in front of her* Conversing helps to keep my mind off of things, yes, but I am afraid I will be less than cheerful for some time.

If you insist on me having a drink, orange tea with a stir of honey would be nice.

All this talk of drinks has made me want some cocoa

I like rain. I used to find it annoying, but I've grown to love it. It's refreshing.

*sighs*

I do t-too, Jesse-san, I-I do too.

We just wa-want you to be ha-happy, Eyea-san. *she attempts to smile encouraging at Eyea*

*glances over at Stress* I know dear. However, it's rather difficult to be cheerful when one fears they have lost a friend.

-Suddenly closes his binder with an audible, resounding SNAP and looks up with a grin-

@Stress The pleasure is mine, dear. After all -stands up and straightens tie- I am the Vice President of the Host Club and am the one in charge of its actual functionality. With the exception of the Commoner Ko-Hi- introduced to us by Haruhi-kun, everything you will taste will be of the highest quality, from the tea, to the high-class western style desserts, to the Ginori (green seaweed coloured) tea set you are drinking out of. We offer our guests a chance to refresh themselves from the rather hectic outside world and I am honoured that you have decided to join us today."

-Glances back to Eyea- I am so pleased you have come to a decision. I'll see that it is out to you as soon as possible. -Walks off to inform the boy in charge of trivial chores of the newest order.-

*Stress' smile immediately slips from her face*

Lo-Lost a friend, E-Eyea-san?

Lets just say he hasn't been the least bit interested in talking to me as of late.

Ah, I love rain, personally

I'm sorry, Eyea. I hope it works out.

Rain is nice... Except when it's COLD and raining. D8 Then it's not so nice.

I-I'm sorry, Eyea-san

*Silently she walks over to Eyea and awkwardly gives her a hug*

I'll b-be here for y-you

*hugs Stress* Thank you, and thank you too Maiden.

I know how that feels *hugs*

*Stress lets go and I now standing out-of-place beside Eyea*

Ah.. Uh.. Um..
