Always Seen, Never Heard
-This is a random idea thrown into my head by the need to pair the hosts up with an unlikely OC!

~Chapter One~
Matsuki's POV
Quick, quick! You're gonna be late! I thought to myself. Running through the halls of Ouran Academy was never a good idea, especially if you didn't know where you were going. I had come to that conclusion a few minutes ago when the office discharged me. 2nd floor, class 1-A… Where is it again?
I was surprised when I landed on the floor. I usually heard someone when they were so close. I whined and rubbed my head. I looked up to see a tall, grey eyed teen staring back down at me. His tall figure towered over mine, I probably made it a bit past his elbows. Why must everyone be so tall? Finally he reached his hand towards me, wanting to help me to my feet.
"Don't be shy!" A small voice piped up. "He doesn't bite, I swear!" My eyes widened at the small blonde on the black haired teen's shoulders.
Takashi looked at his cousin. "Ah." He agreed. I quickly scrambled to my feet on my own and hurried on down the hall, my shimmering black hair following in my wake.
"Ne, Takashi! Do you think she was scared?" I heard the blonde ask curiously. Said teen shrugged and continued walking down the hall.
I panted as I slowed down to a stop. Was I rude for not saying sorry? I mean like, it's not really my fault, right? There was something about him that was so intimidating. I can't even say that my words were caught up in my throat, because I knew for a fact that they never would be.

Hikaru's POV
Class 1-A's Sensei glared my brother and I, the devil twins disrupting his lecture for the 7th time. "Hikaru, Kaoru! Sit down please, the transfer student is waiting at the door." We grinned identically, being the dopplegangers we are, and took our respective seats next to Haruhi. Kaoru on her right, and I on her left. "Come in and introduce yourself."
A small girl opened the door and walked over to the chalk board. I watched her analytically as she wrote on the board, her knee length hair swayed against her white skirt as she wrote. I sighed. Her hair's a bit too long for someone so short. She whipped around when she was done and bowed. She looked at her new sensei expectantly. "Everyone, this is Hyuuga, Matsuki-chan. She is your new classmate now, treat her with respect."
"Why isn't she talking?" Someone called.
The teacher ignored his student. "Take a seat next to Hitachiin-kun." Kaoru looked at his me, being as I had the open seat next to the window, and snickered. This is going to be such a bother. I don't want to be partners with this small girl. I doubt anyone would. She seems to quiet for my tastes. She also looks like she cries easily. Major pain.
I sighed again and raised my hand. Matsuki quietly took the seat next to me. I looked at the small girls legs, being as her skirt only came up to her knees. She's not an athlete… Boring~
Not even a few minutes later, I felt a soft tap on my shoulder. Matsuki looked up at me, her clear blue eyes, nearly white, contrasting with her dark blue Aeropastale sweater. I looked at Matsuki passively. Despite her flaws her eyes are pretty. I thought as he was handed a piece of paper. It read: Do you know what were doing? I picked up my pen and wrote back lamely, I didn't want to waste my time with the new transfer student. Why don't you ask? Matsuki looked at the scribbled handwriting and cringed before finally writing. Because I can't…
I turned with an annoyed look to face Matsuki and whispered."What do you mean you can't? Ah, never mind." Sighing, I shook my head. Matsuki looked dejectedly looked out the window.
The rest of the day continued in a fashion like this. Passing notes, confusion, and a very annoyed Matsuki. Finally the bell rang and I rushed out the door, catching up to my brother.
"That girl was so annoying Kaoru! She wouldn't stop bothering me… Passing me notes every two seconds." I said angrily.
Kaoru giggled. "Wow, Hikaru. Maybe she-" He stopped talking when he saw Matsuki hurry past us, she had slight tears in her eyes. Guess I was right. "Hikaru, I think she heard you…"
"You really think I care?" I asked. Kaoru shook his head. "Let's get to the club before Tono has a heart attack."

Takashi's POV
All day I couldn't stop thinking about the strange girl I encountered in the hall. There was something about her I couldn't forget. The way she looked up at me with those clear, blue eyes. Almost like she was completely frightened of me. It was weird she didn't say sorry either. Usually when girls run into me they get flustered and begin apologizing right away. This one got up and ran.
My thoughts were interrupted when I heard someone outside the door. They stopped walking for now. "Someone's here." I said suddenly, looking at the club room's door.
Mitsukuni looked up from his cake. All the hosts looked at me. "Who?" I shrugged. I'm a highly trained kendo professional, not a psychic.
"My darling Princess!" Tamaki said dramatically. "Don't be afraid to come in, for you sparkle far more than all the diamonds in the world!" I snorted slightly at his words. Who ever it was obviously wanted nothing to do with him.
Haruhi looked the door. "I think your scaring her."
"Matsuki-chan, there's no need to be afraid of us." Kyouya said while smirking. Slowly the said girl stepped into the room. "Guys, this is Hyuuga, Matsuki. She's my cousin who'll be living with me from now on due to… certain circumstances."
My eyes widened. It was the girl form before. They were related? Wow. This girl seemed so sweet while Kyouya was like a demon.
Everyone shuddered at Kyouya's words. Mitsukuni looked at me, eyes wide with mischief. "It's the girl from before!" He happily bounced over to Matsuki, who looked at him with wide eyes. "Hi Matsuki-chan! I'm Hunny! Remember me from before? Do you like cake? Wanna sit with me and Takashi?"
"My Princess, why won't you talk to us? We don't bite." Tamaki said. Matsuki's eyes immediately flashed to me, remembering a similar scene earlier. "I'm sure your voice is far more beautiful then all of Heaven's angelic choirs!"
Matsuki backed up towards Kyouya, who sighed. "She can't talk. Hasn't been able to since the day she was born." Tamaki immediately burst into tears, ranting in his emo corner.
I looked at the small girl. I suddenly felt sad. She must feel frustrated when she can't get her points across. I know I would.
"I kinda figured." Haruhi said.
The twins face-palmed. "How could we be so stupid!"
Matsuki pulled a thin book with many pages out of her bag and walked over to Hikaru. She opened it and pointed to certain words. I watched from my spot, amused. You're. Not. Stupid. I. Tried. To. Tell. You. Before. But. You. Did. Not. Want. To. Listen.
"How do you know I'm the one that sat next to you in class?" Hikaru tested.
You. Have. A. Very. Different. Voice. Then. Your. Brother. You. Also. Carry. Your. Self. Different. Then. Your. Brother. Matsuki quickly pointed. Hikaru was taken aback. No one had ever figured him from Kaoru so quickly. It even took Haruhi a few days before she knew who was who.
I quickly look from one brother to the other. Hikaru looked slightly pissed, and Kaoru, well he look like he was thinking.
"Hikaru…" Kaoru said quietly to his brother. "Maybe we can-"
Hikaru turned around and answered just as lowly. "No Kaoru. She probably won't care enough to remember us tomorrow."
Matsuki grabbed Hikaru and forcefully turned him around. Is she mad? She must be, I can see it in her eyes. The small girl furiously pointed to her cards. Hikaru's eyes widened as he watched. Just. Because. I. Can't. Talk. Does. Not. Mean. I. Can't. Hear. You. Just. Because. You. May. Not. Like. Me.
Before I knew what I was doing, I suddenly picked Matsuki up off the ground and placed her on a small couch across the room. I bent down so I was eye level with the small girl and whispered so no one could here. "They have certain… issues. It's not their fault." Matsuki lowered her eyes, as if to say sorry. I nodded in understanding. "It's okay." With that I patted the small girl's head and walked away.
Everyone watched as we completed our nearly silent exchange. "Mori-senpai is feeling bold today!" Tamaki declared while thumping his chest.
Kyouya watched with interest. He scribbled these details down in his book. He had a smug look on his face. He could be writing anything down in that book. I sighed. What have I gotten myself roped into this time?
