A. N Hello everyone! This one, I hope, shall be a multi chapter story about the twins at their mum's house. Will this summer be memorable? Or a total nightmare? Please rate and idea's shall be praised and most likely used, with your credit of course! Enjoy!
Hikaru and Kaoru looked around at the place their limousine driver left them. They were out in the middle of nowhere. The sky was painted with soft pastel colors of blue, yellow, pink, and orange. The grass was slightly yellowish green around where they were standing until they saw the gated entrance a few feet from the road. The black wrought iron gate held a nice Spanish mansion behind it. Painted white with a few decorative pillars and many windows, this mansion looked more as a hotel than their mother's home. The yard was expanse and neatly cut and very lush green. Hikaru looked to Kaoru and he nodded.
"Mom lives here?" Hikaru asked, his voice like honey, yet shaky and shocked. Kaoru nodded. Kaoru bent over, grabbing his black leather suitcase.
"Yeah, according to Grandma. Mom got a huge inheritance and is a famous seamstress too, so she made money that way." Kaoru sighed. He grabbed Hikaru's warm hand and pulled him so slightly to hurry up. The night was beginning to spread and he definitely didn't wanna meet the coyotes howling in the distance. Hikaru gave Kaoru a warm smile and grabbed his as well, and followed his shy brother to the gate. Kaoru stepped up to the massive gate, inspecting the metal for a way in, until Hikaru tapped his shoulder, pointing to an electronic voice messenger. He pressed it and waited a minute, then heard an old lady on the other end.
"Uh yes? Hello? Hello?" The ancient lady asked, impatient and stern.
"Um yes. Miss, we need to see the lady in charge. This is Hikaru." Hikaru said awkwardly, surprised by the 'old' lady.
"Mrs. Hitachiin is busy at the moment. She refuses any customers tonight. Goodnight." The lady replied.
"No, Miss, you don't understand. Kaoru and I are her children!" Hikaru said quickly, quite startled at the reply. Kaoru gave him a puzzled look.
"Oh, dear Kaoru? Is that you honey? Come on in." The old lady said enthusiastic and in a moment, the iron gate swung open slowly. Hikaru gave him an upset look.
"Amour, I don't even know her. Please don't look at me like that." Kaoru told him strongly. He quickly looked into his twin's emotional golden eyes and pulled Hikaru into a hug, pecking his cheek, then pulling back to see Hikaru's faint blush.
"Not around Mom and everyone! You know we can't let Mom know about our 'situation'." Hikaru told him a little too quickly, the words getting tangled on his tongue and coming out jumbled. Kaoru smiled warmly.
"They won't know. Now let's go before the ancient one closes the gate." Kaoru suggested. They walked in side by side and the boy's kept quiet, seeing box hedge bushes line the old black iron fence and a dolphin fountain in the middle of the walkway with concrete leading them up to the house. The yard, they noticed, was very tidy, no grass on the concrete, nor growing in cracks or anything.
"I wonder how Tamaki knew all this. I bet he'll call everyday, he would if Haruhi was here." Hikaru pondered.
"Or he'd come along, insisting he had to come." Kaoru replied, rolling his eyes. They reached the front door, surrounded on both sides by moon flowers, starting to open and dainty pink hibiscus and blood roses settling down for the night. The door was a white painted walnut door, as they could tell by knocking on the door. Or, they thought it was walnut. They patiently waited and the door opened slowly.
