A Room For Two

Pairing: Haruka x Hibari x Yagyuu

Genre: Romance/Drama

Disclaimer: I do not own Senran Kagura or any of its characters.

Author's Note: Hehe~! After reading Mike Powell's "Poles, Opposites" I decided to return the favor and write a multi-chaptered story. And no. Hehe~! Haruka's NOT the antagonist of this story. This is a threesome pairing as you already know, so yes. It may start out as a love triangle, but…You'll find out why as the story progresses. Oh, since this is an AU, the Hebijo Crimson Squad go to the same school, just to make things easier.

So, I hope you all enjoy~!

"Yagyuu-chan!" a small pink haired girl calls. "Are you coming? We're going to be late!"

"I'm coming," the silver haired girl says in a calm tone as she closes the door behind her. She walks by the pink haired girl's side with a small smile. "Let's go, Hibari."

With a happy nod, Hibari turns around and trots along the path towards Hanzo Girls' Academy. The pink haired girl, Hibari, has been with her best friend, Yagyuu since middle school. When they first met, Hibari was slightly terrified of Yagyuu's stoic appearance, plus that strange eyepatch on her left eye. However, after the flower-eyed girl discovered Yagyuu's kindness and protection over her from some bullies, she started to have feelings for her. She never had anyone being so protective over her before. Usually, she's ignored by her classmates and such, but not Yagyuu. She's the only one who noticed the pink haired girl and the two have been best friends ever since. Yagyuu does not talk much in front of others, but she only talks to Hibari as much as she wants.

The walk towards the school is enjoyable for the two of them as they had talked to each other as usual. Once they enter the school, they notice a ton of girls walking around, trying to get to their class and such. Hibari couldn't help but steal glances at her silver haired friend. Yayuu-chan… she thinks to herself. You're so cool looking! If only you know how I felt…

They may have been together for a long time, but Hibari is too shy to even tell her about her true feelings. They were best friends after all and Yagyuu might take it the wrong way or something. So, she kept her feelings to herself for the time being.

"Yagyuu-chan," she says. "Do you want to do something after school today?"

"Sure," the silver haired girl replies. "What do you want to do?"

"Mm…anything as long as it's fun."

A small smile appears on Yagyuu's face. "Alright."

Hibari is happy. She is very glad that has Yagyuu as her friend. As they are heading to class, Hibari hears a voice from behind her.

"Hey!" a petite girl with long dark hair and also with an eyepatch on her right eye comes running toward her.

"Oh, hey, Mirai-chan," Hibari says.

"Hello," Yagyuu says. She turns to leave. "I'll be in the classroom."

"Oh, okay. I'll meet you there!" Hibari waves at her friend as the silver haired girl walks ahead of them.

"You two get along very well," Mirai says.

"We do," the pink haired girl replies with a smile. "That's why we're best friends."

Hibari became friends with Mirai about a month ago. She was alone eating lunch one time, so Hibari decided to sit by her. This made the petite girl happy and the two became friends ever since. Yagyuu didn't seem to mind, but since it's hard to tell from her stoic expression, Hibari just let it slide.

Class ends without any trouble, although Hibari kept stealing glances at Yagyuu and blushing. Her mind keeps on wondering into fantasy land with just her and her best friend. Oh, Yagyuu-chan, she thinks to herself. I love you. Someday…if only I could confess to you… She's been trying from time to time to tell her best friend her true feelings, but because of her shy and timid nature, she's unable to. However, that doesn't stop her determination. She is sure one day, the time will come.

As the bell rings for next period, everyone gets up to get to their next class. However, Hibari and Yagyuu had different classes, so after waving farewell to each other, they went their separate ways. Mirai is able to catch up to the pink haired girl.

"Hey, Hibari~!" she says cheerfully.

"Mirai-chan!" Hibari replies happily.

"I saw you two just a minute ago," the petite girl says. "And you're right: you two get along very well."

"Mm-hmm~! We're best friends after all!"

The two girls walk in the halls together for a few minutes until Mirai pops a question.

"Say," she says. "Not to be nosey, but…have you had any crushes lately?"

"Eh!?" Hibari jumps at the question and blushes. "U-um…well…not really…"

Mirai stops and leans closer towards the pink haired girl with a suspicious expression. "Hmmmm…you're blushing, so that proves that you DO have a crush on someone. Right~?"

"N-now, you've got it all wrong, Mirai-chan…"

"And who might your crush be~?"

"Why do you want to know!? It's so embarrassing!"

"Come on! You're in high school now! And there are a bunch of girls here, so you must have a crush on someone~!"

Hibari swallows hard. I guess I have no choice, she thinks to herself. "Alright, Mirai-chan. I guess I can't hide it from you anymore. The girl I like is…right over there!" She points her finger at a girl standing against the wall with 4 other girls gathered around her. "Yes, that's her!" She opens her eyes and her flower eyes widen at the site of a beautiful girl with curly honey-blonde hair. Wait…I know that girl!

"You…have a crush…on Haruka-sama?" Mirai is surprised herself. "A lot of girls are head over heels for her. I didn't know you were one of them, Hibari."

"U-ummmm…yeah…that's right…" Hibari says with a nervous laugh. I'm sure glad that Haruka-san is there, she thinks to herself. She's the most popular girl in school, after all. I haven't talked to her in person, but I keep hearing rumors about her. She looks up at the girl, who turns toward her with her emerald eyes staring into her flower eyes. And then, Haruka winks with a smile, making Hibari blush furiously. She quickly turns away and fast walks in the opposite direction and stops by the window.

W-w-what in the world was that!? Hibari thinks. Haruka-san…winked at me!? I've never seen her wink at anybody before. She'd just talk and laugh with them. She is beautiful, to be honest. But Yagyuu-chan is still the only one for me. She turns her head towards Mirai walking up to Haruka and speaks to her. The honey blonde giggles and points to herself. Mirai nods and Haruka pets her hair like she's petting a kitten. Hibari giggles and heads off to her next class.

**Later**

Mirai and Haruka stand in the halls next to the window.

"So, you're saying that this cute girl is interested in me?" the honey-blonde asks.

"Yes! Hibari just told me that she liked you!" Mirai replies with excitement. "You should return her feelings!"

"Hehehe~! Oh, Mirai-chan, you're so sweet~!" Haruka giggles. "But is there proof that she really likes me?"

"Well, why don't you go ask her yourself? I mean, you two see each other in the halls almost every day, so why not give it a shot?"

"Hmmmm…I'll think about it," Haruka says. "But you know, even though I'm popular with most of the girls at this school, I never figured I'd talk to a cutie like you who lacks having a big chest like the rest of us~."

This makes Mirai angry. "What did you just say!? Grr! You're gonna get it, Haruka-sama!" She tries to throw a punch at the senior, only for her fist to get caught by Haruka.

"Listen, sweetie," the honey-blonde says. "I know you're small and cute, but your attitude needs some major adjustments. Keep that up and no girl will ever love you."

"Not when you or other people make fun of my chest!" Mirai screeches.

"Right, right…" Haruka lets go of her hand and turns to leave. "You're a good person, Mirai-chan. I can tell you that. But work on that attitude of yours and the other girls will for sure take a liking of you."

Mirai looks at the honey-blonde as she walks off. A small smile appears on her face.

**Next Day**

Hibari and Yagyuu walk to school as usual when they hear some talking from the other girls.

"Hey, did you hear?" one girl says. "This girl, Hibari-san, is going out with Haruka-sama."

"No way! I never knew that pink haired girl was even interested in her!"

"She barely talks to anyone but that stoic girl that's always with her."

Hibari sweat drops and turns toward the silver haired girl. "Um…did something happen yesterday that caused those rumors?"

"Not that I know of," Yagyuu replies. "But if anything happens, come and get me. I'll protect you."

"Thanks, Yagyuu-chan!" Hibari says happily. Oh, Yagyuu-chan, I love you~! she thinks to herself.

In the school halls, she sees Mirai walking by. She decides to have a talk with her after class today.


"Huh? Spread rumors?" Mirai asks. "I didn't do it."

"Don't try to fool me!" Hibari cries. "You're the only one who knows that I like Haruka-san!"

"Look, Hibari, if I did spread the rumors, I would want everyone to know your feelings for her." The petite girl crosses her arms. "But everyone knows that I keep to myself all the time, so they barely talk to me, more or less make fun of me. You should be really careful about who you point your finger to." With that, she walks away.

Hibari puts a fist on her chest. Maybe Mirai-chan is right, she thinks to herself. She often gets bullied, so I don't think they'll even listen to her if she told them about it. Time to scratch her off the list. But…who else could it be?

She turns to walk towards the school when she meets a trio of other girls who are slightly older than her. She backs away and trembles in fear from their scary look in their eyes.

"U-um…c-can I help you?" she asks.

"We want to talk to you for a minute," a girl with red curls in the front says. "We heard that you were going out with Haruka-sama."

"N-no. That's all wrong," Hibari says as she puts up her hands in defense. "We barely talk to each other. Sure, I like her, but that doesn't mean I'm going out with her."

"Please," the red haired girl scoffs. "You're lying through your teeth. I also heard you two even kissed."

Hibari jumps at what the girl had said. K-Kissed!? she thinks. Who would've said such a thing!?

"I…I gotta go!" the pink haired girl starts to make a run for it, but the other two girls grab hold of her.

"You're not running away from us," the red-haired girl says. "We want to teach you a lesson in not touching our Haruka-sama."

Hibari's body shakes in fear as she looks like a terrified puppy who is about to be whipped. She wanted to call for Yagyuu, but she knows that she's going to a different class right now, so she's on her own. The red-haired girl walks toward her with a scary glare.

"Stay away from Haruka-sama," she says, coldly.

"P-please, don't…" Hibari whimpers.

The red-haired girl raises a fist to punch her in the face with Hibari bracing for the impact. However, she feels nothing. She opens her eyes and looks up to see Haruka glaring at the girl while holding her wrist tightly.

"I think you should be the one who needs to stay away," Haruka says. "She doesn't deserve to be treated this way."

"B-but…" one of the other girls say.

"Now, I want you three to get lost," the honey-blonde demands. "Understand?"

All three girls back away a few steps and bow at the same time. "W-we're sorry, Haruka-sama!" they say in unison and then run off.

Hibari sighs in relief. "Thank you so much."

"No problem," Haruka says with a gentle smile. "You shouldn't really be out here alone when there's girls like them who are going to bully you like this."

"I understand."

The honey-blonde smiles. "So you're…Hibari-chan, right?"

"Yes, how did you know my name?"

"Your friend, Mirai-chan, told me about you," Haruka replies. "You and her get along well."

"I see."

The flower eyed girl then decides to pop a question that's been on her mind. "Say, Haruka-san. There are these rumors that are going around that you and I are going out. If…if we don't find the idiot who did this-"

"No need to worry, sweetie~!" Haruka says with a wink. "I already know the idiot~" She points to herself. "It's me~!"

Hibari gasps. "Y-you?" She can't believe what she just heard. "Why? Why would you say things like that!?"

Haruka just giggles. "Because I like you, Hibari-chan~!"

"Huh? Since when?"

Haruka's smile remains on her face. "Since the day of the entrance ceremony. Do you remember that?"

Hibari stares at the girl until it hits her. "Oh, yeah! I do! You were there helping me out when I was lost, right?"

"Correct," the honey-blonde replies. "Right when I laid eyes on you as I guided you, I immediately took interest in you."

"Oh, my gosh…" Hibari cups her hand to her mouth. I never knew that Haruka-san even liked me in the first place…

"A-anyways, we have to stop the rumors from spreading any further…" And then, she realized another thing. She quickly puts her hands on the honey-blonde's shoulders. "Haruka-san! Please tell me you didn't tell anyone else in this school!"

Haruka stays silent as her smile still remains.

"Kyaaaa!" Hibari squeaks and punches the senior's chest, only they were soft punches. "You stupid, stupid, stupid girl! How could you do this!? That's so embarrassing!" What if it spreads to Yagyuu-chan? she thinks. "Haruka-san, listen. We have to do something about it! How can we keep from the rumors spreading any further!?"

Haruka looks down at the small girl. "I know one thing we could do."

"You do!? What is it?"

The honey-blonde gently puts her hands on the pinkette's shoulders. "We make the rumors true." She tips her chin to her level. "I love you…Hibari-chan," she whispers. With that, she leans in and touches lips with hers.

Hibari couldn't move a muscle as she feels Haruka's lips make contact with hers. Her heart beats rapidly and a blush on her face is redder than ever before. Hibari got her first kiss from a popular senior in the whole school.


A/N: And we'll end it here~! And for those of you who are thinking that Mirai is the antagonist, well she's not. I'm not really good at those antagonistic behaviors anyways, so I have to think of something else to get the drama going.

Feel free to give out any suggestions, questions or concerns and don't forget to review~! ;)
