Okay, so new story! Yay! This idea has been in my noggin for far too long. So, I finally decided to write it. I don't really have any serious warnings except that this is Twincest, so if you don't like that than leave. I don't want to hear it from anyone, kay? Anyway, y'all enjoy it. I don't own Ouran High School Host Club and never will.

The day was splendid. Girls had filed in constantly during the club's hours. Now, all the hosts were exhausted and just relaxing in the music room. All except for two.

"Where's Kaoru?" Hikaru suddenly asked. He had dozed off on the couch and awoken to find his twin missing. His eyes were wide, slightly worried. He usually knew exactly where his younger counterpart was at all times. Not knowing made him uneasy.

"Don't worry. He walked out to the balcony a few minutes ago with Haruhi." Kyoya said. He never even looked up from the writings in his notebook. It seemed to everyone that he never even put it down.

Hikaru frowned for a second. It wasn't like his brother to walk off without him like that. Then he just shrugged it off and dozed off again.

Kaoru stood out on the balcony leaning against the small railing. He scowled down at the ground below him, obviously not in a good mood. Haruhi walked up and stood beside him. He ignored her for a few moments. Then she turned and looked up at him with those all-knowing, big, brown eyes.

"So, are you going to tell me what's been going on with you or do I have to force it out of you?" she asked. Kaoru clenched his hands into fists and looked away from her. How did she always figure these things out? It wasn't that obvious if no one else had. Especially Hikaru.

"It's nothing." he lied. "I'm fine. You should go rest up before we all go home. You'll need all your energy for keeping up your 'I'm a boy' charade tomorrow." Kaoru tried to sound like his normal teasing, devilish self but his voice came out flat and dull. Just like his mood.

"I know you're lying Kaoru. Look, I'm your friend, so I want to help." she said.

Kaoru sighed and thought for a second. If anyone cared enough to listen, it would be someone in the club. And even though she appeared apathetic most of the time, he knew Haruhi really did care about her new found friends. After a few moments, he turned back to her.

"It's about a certain person." the youngest twin whispered. "I like this person. No, it's more than that. I love them, but I don't think they feel the same way."

"Well, who is it?" Haruhi asked.

"I can't tell you that!" Kaoru said rather loudly.

"Why not?"

"I can't tell anyone. Not even him. No one would understand."

Kaoru turned away and looked up at the sky. The sun was starting to set and once blue expanse was stained orange and pink. Surprisingly, Kaoru felt a few hot tears prick at his eyes, but he blinked them away before they could spill over his cheeks.

Haruhi patted his arm gently, gaining his attention. "I think I know who it is." she said. "It's not an act for you anymore is it? You've fallen in love with him, right?"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Kaoru said quickly, his voice starting to shake from nerves.

"It's Hikaru." the other said. "Don't lie to me. I know that's who it is."

Kaoru looked around then back at her. "And you're not… disgusted by it?"

"No, I'm fine with it. If he's who makes you happy, then you should be together."

"I wish Hikaru felt the same way." the disheartened twin said, looking down.

"Have you told him?"

"No. I can't tell him. What if he hates me for it?"

"He won't hate you."

Kaoru sighed and looked away again. "Haruhi, I don't think he's even gay. What's he honestly going to think of me if I tell him? Besides, I think he's got his eyes on you."

"Me?" she looked flabbergasted. "I'm not interested in him. I'm not interested in anybody."

"That doesn't matter."

"Kaoru, you should tell him how you feel. If you don't, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. You have to take some risks for true love."

He let her words sink in for a few moments. When he finally looked up again, she was walking back into the room. He followed her slowly, and saw that everyone else was preparing to leave. Hikaru walked over and slung his arm over the younger's shoulders.

"Getting a bit of fresh air, Kaoru?" he asked.

He nodded, falling into their normal routine. "Are we going home now?" he asked lightly.

"Yeah, I'm tired."

"Me too." Kaoru agreed. He glanced over at everyone, until his eyes rested on Haruhi for a moment. A moment of silent communication passed between them. She nodded at him encouragingly, then walked out the door of the music room.

Kaoru looked over at his brother for a moment. Without another word, the two stepped away from each other and started walking to the door. They were completely in synch, as always. It had always been like this for them. Almost like they could read each other's minds.

Except for now. Kaoru desperately thought at his brother, trying to get the message through. I love you! More than anything else! Please hear me on this!

But Hikaru showed no reaction to his thoughts, so Kaoru just continued to walk with his brother. Slowly he reached over and grabbed his twin's hand and held onto it tightly. There was no reaction to this either, however. It was a normal occurrence to show this sort of affection towards each other.

I'll tell him tonight. Once we've showered and gone to bed, I'll go to sleep with him like normal and just tell him honestly how I feel. It can't be that difficult. That's what I'll do.

He soon found himself trying to convince himself that was a good idea. Even as the two boys sat down in the back of their usual limo. He stayed relatively silent, worrying over what he was going to do when they arrived at home.

Hikaru noticed his brother's somewhat strange behavior, but he chose not to comment on it. Instead, he simply sat there pondering his brother's actions. Had something happened between him and Haruhi? Yes, that must be it. As he thought about this, a strange sensation of jealousy came over him. His brother was his! Not anyone else's.

He glanced over at his brother. He was nervously chewing on his bottom lip, his hands gripping at the car seat. He did this every time he wanted to tell Hikaru something. He frowned and looked down at the floor of the car. This was the first time, Hikaru could remember sitting in awkward silence with his brother. When the car stopped in front of their large mansion, he quickly got out and ran into the house, leaving his brother still sitting in the limo.

The older twin ran up to his bedroom. He stared at the wall for a minute, then he turned and walked into their large shared bathroom. He stripped, throwing his clothes down the hamper and stepped into the shower. He turned the water up as hot as it could go and stood under the spray waiting for it to heat up. Even after the water scorched his skin, he didn't move or turn it down.

Kaoru and Haruhi? Together? It can't be! I mean, Kaoru is gay. I'm fairly certain. He's always seemed to favor guys. I don't know anymore. It seems ever since we've joined the Host Club, we've drifted apart. I love my brother, though. I don't want to lose him to some girl. But, he'll still be my brother. I wouldn't lose him. Why am I so angry at him for liking her? I don't even have proof!

Hikaru turned off the water and dried off quickly. He wrapped a towel around his waist and stepped out of the bathroom. His twin was sitting on the bed with his knees pulled up to his chest and his head rested on his knees. Kaoru lifted his head and watched him with his golden eyes, exact copies of Hikaru's own. He looked away and went to their dresser to change into his pajamas. Kaoru was already dressed for bed. Hikaru changed in front of his brother, as always, then climbed into bed beside him. Kaoru flipped the lamp off and curled up beside his brother.

"Hikaru?" the younger twin said quietly.

"Hmmn?" Hikaru asked, eyes closed, almost asleep.

"I need to tell you something." he continued.

Hikaru's eyes snapped open. "What's that?"

"I… I…" Kaoru bit his lip, obviously unable to continue.

"Is it about what you and Haruhi talked about today?" Hikaru found himself asking.

Kaoru looked at him in shock. "Yes, how do you know about that?"

"It's not that difficult to figure out."

"So, you know then?" Kaoru looked away.

"Yes, I think I've figured it out." Hikaru turned away so Kaoru couldn't see the heartbroken look on his face. He didn't really know why the confirmation of a relationship between his brother and Haruhi hurt him so much, but it did. And he didn't want to have to explain that to his twin.

He felt his brother move closer against his back. "I'm so sorry, Hika…" he muttered.

"Don't be!" Hikaru shouted, suddenly sitting up. "I don't care if you want to be with her! That's fine! Just leave me out of it."

Kaoru looked up at him in shock. "That's not-" he started.

"I'm going to sleep alone tonight." Hikaru cut him off. He stood up and walked away to the other bed. He laid down and buried his face in a pillow.

For the first time in years, the twins slept in two separate beds, after having their first real fight.

Review, please?
