It was a cool summer morning, and the Hitachiin Twins were asleep in bed. Just as the clock at their bedside turned to 7:30, Kaoru woke up. He looked at the still sleeping Hikaru, then at the clock. "Still 30 minutes until the alarm goes off. Might as well get a start on the day while I'm up." He mumbled.

He got out of bed, moving carefully to avoid waking his brother. Just before standing up, he looked at Hikaru's sleeping face. They had been in a relationship for three years now, ever since they got out of High School. They hadn't told anyone, not even their friends from the Host Club. Tamaki had come up with the whole "brotherly love" act for them, but how would he react if he knew it was more than just an act? With a sigh, he stood up and walked to the closet for some clothes.

Soon after, Kaoru was dressed and downstairs making breakfast. He heard the alarm buzzing from upstairs as soon as 8:00 hit. Before long, Hikaru came down, still in pajamas and appearing to be half asleep. "Morning beautiful. Love the new hairstyle," Kaoru said in a playful tone.

"Shut up," grumbled Hikaru.

"Well well, someone's a bit grumpy today. What's the matter with you?"

"It's nothing, I'm fine."

"C'mon, I'm your brother, you can tell me."

Hikaru sighed. He knew Kaoru wouldn't give up until he told him, and he really didn't feel like being pestered about it all day, especially when they had the host club today. When they got out of High School, the host club didn't disband. All the members agreed to keep it alive. The only difference being that Haruhi now dressed as herself instead of a boy, and guys now visited as well as girls. "Hikaruuu… Earth to Hikaru!"

Kaoru's voice brought Hikaru back from his daydream. "It's nothing important. What are you making for breakfast?"

"Eggs. Now tell me what's wrong or we're not leaving this house."

"But we have a Host Club meeting today. We can't miss it."

"And you think I'd rather be there and let you be upset? As if." Kaoru rolled his eyes.

"I'm not telling you."

"Tell meeee. Tell me tell me tell me tell me tell meeeeeeeee." Kaoru was relentless, poking Hikaru in the side, cheek, forehead, and just about everywhere else.

"FINE, I'LL TELL YOU!" Hikaru practically exploded.

"If I tell you though, you can't laugh or get angry or whatever."

"I won't, cross my heart." Kaoru held up his right hand and used his left to make a cross motion over his chest. "Now what is it?"

Hikaru sighed, looking at the table to avoid eye contact. "I… I want a child."
