Caroline is a beautiful girl of about 16 years old. She has long brown hair, bright forest green eyes, and ivory skin. Caroline is a good friend of Haruhi's; she has been since Haruhi was in grade school. Caroline was a rich kid that lived with stingy parents. So, Caroline's parents sent her to a public school dressed like a commoner. Haruhi and she got really close in public school, and Caroline told Haruhi all of her problems. Much like Haruhi, Caroline had to do all the work in her house. However, unlike Haruhi, Caroline never had a choice in the matter. Caroline had to clean the house and do the cooking, because her parents didn't want to. If Caroline didn't do what she was told she didn't get to eat, even if she had just cooked the food.

Caroline still loved her parents though, and wanted to keep them happy. She would invite Haruhi over while her parents weren't home and they would clean the house and talk together. Haruhi had always felt sorry for Caroline, even when her parents died. Caroline's parents both died in a plane crash and it made it to where Caroline had to start staying with Haruhi. This happened at the end of grade school, so they were always together until Caroline hit junior high. Then Caroline's relatives wanted a hold on the estate, so they were all trying to adopt her. Caroline's aunt and uncle were the ones to take her in, but they moved her to Paris, France.

Caroline's aunt and uncle treated her very well and took good care of her with the money they had. When Caroline started high school she complained to her "parents" that she wanted to see Haruhi again, that she was the only really good friend she's ever had. Her aunt and uncle agreed and sent her over to Japan by herself, to live up her high school years with a good friend. They gave her at least a billion to live off of, because her aunt and uncle were rich as well, so with the money combined she had plenty to live off of.

Caroline signed up for Ouran and they said she was more than qualified, with money, power, and good grades. The second she signed up at Ouran she tried to figure out where Haruhi was, she was walking around the class rooms, following other students asking about her. Then she found her when the classes started, sitting in between two twins, in her class. Caroline runs up to Haruhi and squeals, "Ohayou Haruhi-sempai!"

Haruhi looked around in confusion and then recognizes her as she says, "Ohayou Caroline-kun. You can drop the sempai you know."

Caroline blushes and says, "Yeah, I know…I just feel you deserve respect, I know your father never gives it to you…"

Haruhi smiled softly and said, "Okay…listen, how about you sit down and we'll write notes, I don't think the teacher likes you standing and speaking with me…Kaoru, can you move over so that Caroline can sit next to me?"

Kaoru looked over at Hikaru and he nodded, so Kaoru scooted over and Caroline said, "Dozo yoroshiku onegai shimasu"

Haruhi shook her head and said, "That's actually not the correct instance to use that. You would say that when introducing yourself, it's not really excusing your entrance. That would be…um…"

"Sumimasen" Hikaru muttered and Haruhi nodded.

"Yes, Sumimasen…it means excuse me." Haruhi stated to Caroline.

Caroline blushed deeper and says softly, "Sumimasen…"

"It's okay, Caroline, you haven't been back in a while…" Haruhi said softly.

"So, um…Haruhi, why are you dressed like a boy?" Caroline asked. Caroline herself was wearing the bright yellow frilly school uniform. The outfit itself disgusted her, but the last thing she wanted was to dishonor her aunt and uncle by dressing like a boy. Though, being Ryoji's daughter, she could see that not bothering him at all.

Haruhi leaned over and said, "Because, I want to be a part of the host club, but as of right now, they aren't hiring girls…plus, I owe them a lot of money."

"So, when do I get to see the host club?" Caroline asked quietly, because now the teacher kept glaring at them every time they said anything.

Haruhi then leaned over and said, "Later…after school." Caroline smiled and nodded, as they started taking notes.

Every class went by in about the same way, with Caroline sitting between Haruhi and Kaoru, because Hikaru had to sit next to Haruhi in every class. Kaoru didn't mind though, because Caroline was smart and would help him through problems when he got stuck, like Haruhi would do. Caroline didn't mind helping Kaoru out if he got stuck in a math problem, because Caroline was really good at Math and English.

Haruhi starts walking up the stairs, smiling back at Caroline every once in a while to make sure she is following, and then walks to the Third Music Room. The twins walk in first and then Haruhi, and you try to follow carefully behind. However, the second Caroline enters the room she is attacked by rose petals and four boys saying "Welcome…" Caroline looks over to Haruhi who smiles softly and waves her over to the boys, so Caroline blushes and walks over with Haruhi.

Haruhi smiles to the boys and says, "This is Caroline Jurin." Caroline blushed as Haruhi said her last name, but Haruhi continued, "She is a good friend of mine from grade school. She just recently joined this school because of me, so she will probably be hanging out with us a lot. Just…don't scare her guys."

Tamaki's eyes went wide as he wrapped his arms around Caroline and said, "Oh, my wonderful Princess and good friend of Haruhi, we will take such great care of you." Caroline starts clawing at his arms and turning blue from the hug.

Haruhi starts laughing as she says, "Mori-sempai, can you help her?" Mori nods and pulls Caroline from Tamaki's grip.

Tamaki looked sad as he said, "You didn't have to take her away like that Mori-sempai"

Haruhi shook her head as she said, "Anyway, Caroline. This is Takashi Morinozuka, Mori for short. This is Mitsukuni Haninozuka."

"Hunny for short?" Caroline asked, and Hunny smiled and nodded to her.

Hunny jumped off of Mori's shoulders and wrapped his arms around your legs as he said, "Carrie-kun, do you like cake?"

Caroline got down to Hunny's level and said, "I love cake." Hunny squealed and ran to go get several different slices of cake to share with Caroline. Caroline smiled at the young boy, who looked old when you stared deeply in his eyes. Caroline then smiled over to Mori who was nodding and smiling to her.

Haruhi then smiled and said, "Alright, and the one who attacked you is Tamaki Suoh. He's sweet when you get used to him." Tamaki sparkled as Haruhi said that. He went to go in for a hug, but Kaoru and Hikaru took hold of his shoulders and shook their heads. Tamaki pouted and ran to his emo corner. Haruhi smiled at him and shook her head as she said, "The men who kept him from attacking me, is Kaoru and Hikaru. Usually you can tell them by the way they part their hair. There are a lot of other differences you will figure out if you stay with them long enough."

Hikaru bowed to you and Kaoru followed suit, and when then stand up they say in unison, "Welcome to the Host Club Caroline!" Caroline nods, as she remembers who is who from class.

Caroline smiles brightly and says, "Thanks, everyone…I really will enjoy it here!"

Haruhi smiles and said, "Well that's not it actually. The one by the computer his name is Kyoya Ootori…."

Caroline cut Haruhi off before she could finish and said, "Ootori Kyoya, the owner of the Ootori hospital line and the owner of the Tokyo Police Squad. You're father's work is amazing Kyoya. As I'm sure is yours here with the Host Club. I love how you created your own destiny since your brothers are to be the first successors before you. It's great to see you have created your own life." Caroline smiled brightly and Kyoya looked over, his jaw hanging open slightly.

When Kyoya finally regained his composure he said, "Well, um…yes, I am Kyoya Ootori, and I appreciate your knowledge of me and my family…You are of a great family as well Miss JuRin. You're family established a great restaurant line that is known around the world, not as well as McDonalds, but that's only because yours isn't as cheap. You are their sole heir, and with them being gone, the money has gone to your aunt and uncle who own the reigning restaurant in France, the L'Oulette, Your aunt and uncle being Marie-Noëlle and Marcel Baudis. I think you and I should get along very well."

Caroline smiled sadly and said, "Yes, maybe we shall. Sounds like my parents would have loved it should we have gotten together."

Hearing Caroline so sad Haruhi came over and grabbed her hand as she said, "Come sit at my table today. We'll just talk for a bit, like we used to." Caroline nodded and smiled.

Tamaki then came over and said, "Princess Caroline, I just wanted to let you know personally that you are always welcome here at the host club." As he finished his sentence he handed her a flower and said, "Because you are our flower here, and we love to watch you bloom with happiness and beauty." Caroline smiled and blushed lightly as she took the flower from Tamaki. Haruhi smiled, but shook her head and grabbed Caroline's arm and took her to her table.

For a good month it would always be the same, Caroline would go to the classes with Haruhi and sit between Haruhi and Kaoru. When it came to Host Club she would always come in early with Haruhi and hang out with her in the changing room until the Welcome started. Once the club would start Caroline would sit with Haruhi to help decrease Haruhi's debt. The boys would smile at her every day and be especially nice to her, as they had been with Haruhi, because they were close friends.

This day was like any other, the classes went by as a blur and now they were running to Host Club. "Caroline!" Haruhi called, trying to drag Caroline behind her.

"I'm coming! I'm coming alright!?" Caroline yells back at Haruhi running as fast as she can to catch up.

Hikaru and Kaoru were running behind her and Hikaru shouts out, "No your not!" Caroline looked back at the two of them and glared at Hikaru as she gave him the Are you serious? look that every girl has. She then shook her head at him and smiled over to Kaoru, who she could tell was blushing softly. Kaoru smiled back at her, which made her blush softly and try to walk quicker with Haruhi.

Once they finally made it to the Third Music Room where the Host Club was stationed Haruhi said, breathlessly, "So, why were we practically racing here?"

Caroline blushed deeper and said, "No reason…" Since she was there early, so that Haruhi could put her costume on, she got to watch people start up their skits, or practice. Caroline watched the twins practice their skits together and every time she watched Kaoru's cheeks redden she felt her own cheeks burn. Caroline then sneezed softly and felt her ears ringing, which meant someone was talking about her.

She looked over to see Hunny whispering to Mori while pointing at her, so she snuck up behind him to listen in, "She's been in here everyday, that Caroline girl has, and yet she only designates the boy she knows is a girl. Yet everyday I watch her before the customers come, and she's always goo-goo eyed over Hikaru and Kaoru... I wonder which one she likes."

She then perks up and says, "You can just ask me, you know..."

At the sound of her voice Hunny gets scared and bounces out of Mori's hands and onto the ground. He starts crying and she pulled a home made cookie out of her bag and hand it to him as she says, "Hush Hunny-sempai...please don't cry..."

He immediately stops crying and hugs her leg tightly as he mumbles between bites of cookie, "I don't care which twin you like, but I hope he cares for you, because Id like to keep you here..."

She smiles and say, "I hope so too Hunny...I hope so too."

Caroline then began thinking back on how you fell for Kaoru in the first place.....

Caroline was sitting in language class with Kaoru when he starts whispering, "Growing up together, Having the same birthday, Arguing, fighting all the time. People getting us mixed up. Confusion, exhausting. Sharing everything. Making up. Inseparable like two peas in a pod Living and laughing the world up in sync Being A Twin by ToiTwin Poems."

Caroline smiles at him softly and says, "That was beautiful and yet so sad." Kaoru looked at her confused as she added, "To be so alone, in a world of your own. Being exactly like someone else. No one knowing you for you."

Kaoru smiled at her and nodded as he said, "That's usually how it goes…"

Caroline frowned and said, "I'm sorry…"

"It's okay…that's our life…" Kaoru said sadly as he starts scribbling in his notebook.

After that class was lunch period, Caroline liked to stay in the classroom with Haruhi during lunch. However, today Haruhi didn't want to stay in the classroom, so Caroline stayed by herself with one other girl. The other girl wrote a note for the twins and put it in Kaoru's desk. The girl quickly ran to lunch, so Caroline decided to check Kaoru's desk. She sighed when she opened the desk and found the note was addressed to Hikaru. Caroline shook her head and picked the note out of Kaoru's desk and put it into Hikaru's.

Caroline wanted to make Kaoru feel special too, so she wrote him a note, more of a poem, and put it in his desk. The poem read, 'Dear Kaoru, I love you because you understand, dearEvery single thing I try to doYou're always there to lend a helping hand, dearI love you most of all because you're youNo matter what the world may say about meI know your love will always see me throughI love you for the way you never doubt meBut most of all I love you 'cause you're youI love you because my heart is lighterEvery time I'm walking' by your sideI love you because the future's brighterThe door to happiness you open wideNo matter what the world may say about me*I know your love will always see me throughI love you for a hundred thousand reasonsBut most of all I love you 'cause you're you

From Anonymous.'

She stuffed the note into his desk and decided to watch what would happen to this girl at the end of the day. The rest of the classes went by in a blur; all Caroline could remember was that Kaoru had carried his note along with him all day. Every moment he had where he didn't have to focus on the class he would open up the note and read it again. Caroline smiled to herself, glad to give Kaoru something that made him so happy. Once school and Host Club were over that day Hikaru met up with the girl after classes. Caroline hid around the corner to watch it all take place. Caroline could tell by the way he stood that it was actually Hikaru as he said, "Hi, I found your letter in my desk."

"Hikaru…" The girl stated excited. The boy shook his head, so the girl questioned herself and asked, "Kaoru?"

Hikaru nodded and said, "But, Hikaru already has somebody that he's in love with. They go pretty well together actually."

"Oh…" The girl said, her eyes shifting to the floor.

"But, I always thought you were really cute…Would you want me?" Hikaru asked, getting a little bit closer to the girl.

The girl smiled as she nodded and said, "Yes…I'll be with you…" Caroline's jaw dropped as she said it. 'Like they were both the same, like it made no difference.' Caroline thought to herself as she shook her head, she couldn't believe the girl could be so foolish. 'They're not exactly the same, they're almost completely different. Just because they look the same doesn't make them the same!'

Hikaru then turned to the bushes and said, "She said she'd take you too Kaoru!" Kaoru came out of the bushes and was just shaking his head, Caroline could still see her note in his hand, so she smiled. Hikaru then took the girls note and ripped it in half as he said, "You can't be with both of us, and we aren't the same. You have to love one of us, or neither." Caroline nodded in triumph, glad that was the way they felt about it. However, she started feeling bad as the girl ran off crying.

She felt bad until she heard Kaoru say, "I wish, just once, they knew. We would love a girl to love both of us, but as separates. I just wish a girl would love one of us and know what she was saying, to where she really did love us, as a unique being." Hikaru nodded and sighed as he wrapped his arm around his brother and they walked home together.

Snapping back to reality Caroline smiled down at Hunny and realized there were eyes staring at her. She looked up just in time to see Kaoru turn away, so she blew a kiss at him, trying to be playful. She notices him blush lightly, so she giggled, and turned back around to run straight into Haruhi. "Hello Caroline…" Haruhi said, rubbing her head lightly.

"Sorry Haruhi…" Caroline says as she offers her hand out to Haruhi. She takes it and lifts herself up, and Caroline helps to brush her off.

After Haruhi's standing up she says, "Okay, Tamaki told me to talk to you about something…" She starts walking Caroline into the dressing room.

Right as Haruhi was going to explain the situation Tamaki ran up to her and said, "My dearest princess and second daughter Caroline, I need you to do something for me..."

"Yes?" Caroline questioned lightly as Tamaki stopped, looking for words, or possibly a pause for emphasis.

Kyoya then entered and said, "It's just that, with the rise of the level of men in the school and adding the probability of lesbians coming into the school..."


Tamaki then dramatically fell to his knees and said, "And now the Lobelia school will come here for you instead of Haruhi!" Fake tears sprang like spring water to his eyes.

Kyoya scoffed at his partners antics and said, "Yes, like I was saying, your becoming a hostess will bring up our prices ten-fold." Caroline nods and he adds, "And for your services, not only will you get any favor you ask for, but you will also start paying off Haruhi's bill..."

Caroline then asked, "So, what is my character?"

As soon as the words came out of her mouth she heard a whirring sound from a large motor and Renge came, laughing, out of a hole in the ground. Renge finished laughing and said, "Obviously, Caroline is fit for the innocent school girl. Can you wear a school girl outfit at all times?"

Caroline nodded and smiled as she paid for the Catholic school girl uniform that Renge passes her. She goes in to change as Kyoya says, "You should have customers as of today, because we already told our class 2-A and hung posters up to let people know we were hiring a hostess."

After she finished putting on the outfit she came out of the dressing room and she asked, "How do I look?" Kyoya's glasses fogged over, and he and Tamaki both got a nose bleed.

Haruhi then leaned in and said, "That means you look awesome!"

Caroline smiled and then realized what Kyoya said before she got out, so she asked, "How'd you know I'd say yes?"

Kyoya smiled devilishly and looked over at the twins as he said, "We just knew..."

Caroline blushed deeply and then decided to ask the rest of the group, "What do you guys think?"

Hunny squealed and jumped off Mori's shoulders to hug her and said, "You look Kawaii Caroline!" Mori then nodded in agreement. The twins both bit their lips and each got a bit of a nose bleed, so she blushed.

Caroline walked over to the twins and looked at Kaoru as she asked innocently, "What do you think? Should I unbutton it a little or leave it buttoned to the top."

Kaoru blushed deeply as he tried to stutter out an answer, but Hikaru butt
in before him and said, "Unbuttoned...It looks sexier and gives guys the idea that they can have fun with you... Buttoned up looks too innocent and guys wont know what to do with you." Kaoru jabs his brother in the side and smiles sheepishly at her, but she nods, already blushing slightly, and begins to
unbutton her shirt.

Kaoru reached out and touched her hand as he blushed deeper due to the contact of skin, and said, "Y-you d-don't h-have to...you looked fine."

Caroline smiled brightly as she took his hand in hers and said, "Thank you Kaoru, but Hikaru is right, my character does need a little more sass or my customers won't know what to do with me." Kaoru and Hikaru both stood there shocked and after a few seconds you realized why, I told them apart, costumes on and all. They didn't know I could... I wonder if telling them was a bad idea.

Before you had time to think about it anymore Tamaki called the group over to welcome the customers. Caroline stands on the right side of Kyoya as she welcomed the customers. She had a big smile on her face and a light innocent blush across her cheeks. The men coming in automatically got nosebleeds and began drooling as they walked over to her. She saw Kaoru glaring daggers at them, and when he saw her looking he blushed and started up a skit with Hikaru. Caroline smiled angelically at her customers and slowly glided over to her table. The men gathered around her, gawking at her chest, as she asked in a silky seductive voice, "What can I do to please you gentlemen? Would food please you?"

The men squealed like little children that were just told they could go to the toy store; one of them even fainted in reply. Kaoru was hardly focusing on his brother as his nose bled slightly from watching her at work, even when his brother wiped his nose Kaoru wouldn't pay attention. Suddenly Kaoru was ripped from his daydream with his brother sobbing. "Hikaru, what's wrong my dearest brother?" Kaoru questioned, pulling Hikaru's face down to his.

Hikaru turned away and whispered, "I don't want to lose your love..." and added even quieter so the girls couldn't hear, "too".

Kaoru pulled his brother into his arms and said, "You'll never lose my love! Ai shiteru!"

Caroline reddened hearing Kaoru scream I love you in Japanese to his brother. She then noticed one of the boys got up enough courage to ask her questions about herself. "My name can be whatever you want it to be. I love very slow music so when I dance with another person our bodies are close and intertwined together." She said sensually moving her hands in a dancing manner. The boys' noses bleed again as she winked and blew a kiss to Kaoru. He blushes deeply and winks back at her, which makes her blush.

Another boy asks you, "Why are you a host?"

Caroline smiled brightly and say sweetly, "I just love pleasing people...seeing smiles on peoples faces pleases me..." she then added seductively, "Id do ANYTHING for a smile..." letting the boys' take it the way they want, and with the nose bleeds going around she knew she did a good job. Kaoru looked over deeply blushing and then smiled; he must have heard what she just said. She giggled lightly and then said, "And because I have so many friends here with me..."

"What kind of guy do you like?" one of the younger boys asked.

Caroline smiled softly as she say, "Well that is a hard one..." She looked over to see if Kaoru was listening as she finished, "I love a guy who puts family above everything, a guy who truly cares for people's personality because EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT, and I love any guy who believes in true love from the first time you talk to some one." She then blushed and said, "I would love any guy like that."

The guys around her begin screaming, "I'm the one! I believe in love!" There were a whole bunch of conjoined answers in that way. She sits through a few more questions and a bunch of nose bleeds until the end of their time with the customers.

Once every one is gone and the club is dressed in their own clothes Hikaru came over to Caroline and said, "The person you were talking about in there...the one you described as a man you would love...were you talking about Kaoru?" Her face went five shades of red and she couldn't breathe as
she nodded.

Hikaru nodded and said, "Yeah, I thought you liked him." He then paused for a moment before he said, "I don't think it'd work out between you two. I don't think you know him as well as you think you do."

Hikaru was so calm about it that Caroline looked back at Kaoru in tears as she said, "Well, I wouldn't expect anything from him if he didn't want to give it. I love him…as an individual. I love him for him."

"YOU!" Hikaru screeched and Caroline's eyes widened as she turned to look at him.

"What?" Caroline asked quietly.

"You're the one who gave him the poem. The one that said I love you for you." Hikaru stated as he looked Caroline up and down.

Caroline nodded and said, "But, please don't tell him…"

"Why not?" Hikaru question.

Just at that moment Kaoru came in and said, "Don't tell who what?"

Caroline looked pleadingly over at Hikaru, but he smirked as he said, "Caroline wrote the poem that you keep in your pocket all the time."

Kaoru looked over at her to see if Hikaru was telling the truth, and Caroline nodded as she said, "I wrote it to you, though I didn't write it myself it was written by…"

"Leon Payne…" Kaoru and Caroline say at the same time and Caroline blushed at the fact he knew the writer.

Hikaru ran his hand through his hair and said, "Well, hmm...looks like we'll need to play the game with her huh Kaoru?" Kaoru nodded and smiled at his brother as they grabbed their green caps and came back to Caroline.

"The which one is Kaoru game!" They said in unison.

"Isn't it usually the 'which one is Hikaru game?'" Caroline asked quietly.

"Yes, but you want Kaoru, so you need to be able to pick him out." Hikaru stated blatantly, his voice flat and emotionless. Caroline nodded, so they continued with the game. They put the hats on and moved back and forth, and made her close her eyes, to see if she'd still be able to tell. "So, which one is which?" Hikaru said.

Caroline smiled and said, "Well, you just made it too easy. Hikaru is the one who just spoke, Kaoru is the one standing next to, and also slightly behind Hikaru. Kaoru is more shy to talk and will only make a fool of himself if Hikaru puts him up to it. Kaoru won't put himself out there unless someone deliberately pulls him out of his shell…" Both of their mouths hung open and they stared at one another. Kaoru smiled softly and nodded to Caroline in respect. Caroline then said, "So…"

This is where Hikaru cut her off and says, "You can be with him if you like,
but I'll be there with him..."

She smiles and says, "That's fine with me, as long as you won't mind some
PDA because I can't promise I'll keep my hands off him..."

Hikaru stood up by himself and said, "That's mutual between both of us for
you babe, so no problems here..."

Hikaru then pulled Kaoru up to his side and said, "Kaoru, you me and Caroline
are going out Friday at 8. No if ands or buts from either of you." He then winks at her as they both blush deeply.

"Friday night it is, moi adore…" Caroline said as she quickly rushed out of the room. She blushed deeply as she remembered Kaoru and Hikaru both knew French.

That day after school Caroline was walking through her apartment when she found her digital camera shoved under her bed. She sighed and pulled it out to look at the pictures. When she did the first picture on there was her sitting between the twins with a big pout on her face, because they had ice cream and she didn't. She then looked at the next picture where she was pouting even more because the twins had shoved their ice creams into her face. The next picture she was laughing and the twins were licking the ice cream off of her face. There were plenty of pictures like that in her camera, with her and the twins, because they were always together. She'd never really considered the fact that she would like one of them, until that day when she wrote the poem for Kaoru.

Caroline lay down in her bed, staring up at the ceiling, as she thought about the twins. Each of them had their own quirks, and she loved them both, in their own way. She didn't want to have to separate the two of them. Caroline sighed as she got out of bed and took a shower, before she went to bed for the night. As she was trying to fall asleep she went through the pictures of her and the twins again.

As Caroline looked at the pictures of her and the twins she began to fall into a deep REM sleep. She dreamt of the twins that night. Her dream was a bit scattered, but she could definitely tell she was dreaming of the twins. They were fighting over her, but at the same time, they were still close to one another. When she got up the next morning she began wondering what her dream was trying to say to her. Caroline yawned and sat up to look at the picture on her camera. It was the one of the three of them sitting at the park together, one of the boys on each side of her smiling brightly with their arms over her shoulders. She blushed as she thought back to that day.

"Come on Kaoru…let's play on the jungle gym…" Hikaru said, pushing Kaoru softly.

Kaoru sighed and said, "But Hikaru we have ladies to entertain here!" Hikaru had wrapped his arm around Kaoru's shoulder and slyly pointed over to Caroline. Kaoru blushed, and that's when Caroline noticed that Hikaru had pointed at her. Caroline smiled seductively and patted the seats next to her for the boys to join. Kaoru then said quietly, but loud enough to where she could hear, "I'm going to sit with Caroline instead."

She watched Hikaru huff and walk over with Kaoru to sit on the other side of her at Haruhi's table. Hikaru wrapped his arm around her and Kaoru did the same as Hikaru said, "Isn't this whether beautiful…"

Kaoru then muttered, "But not as beautiful as you…"

Caroline blushed deeply and said softly, "Um…thank you…"

Hikaru then squealed, "Oh, Caroline, do you have your camera on you?" Caroline nodded, not fully able to say words with them both being so close to her. Hikaru then said, "Awesome…we have to capture this moment…the first time we made Caroline blush…" At this point Caroline was bright red as she pulled her camera out of her purse and handed it to Haruhi.

"Okay guys, smile!" Haruhi says as she puts the camera up to her face. After a few seconds they all smile at the camera, the guys on each side of her with their arms around her back.

She smiled and shook her head as she stood up and walked to her closet. She put on her catholic school girl uniform, and started walking to school. The entire way up to school she had men whistling at her, fainting, or even worse to her, getting nose bleeds. She smiled seductively and batted her eyelashes at them as she walked into the school for that day. She sighed the second she got to her first class and took her usual seat between Haruhi and Kaoru. Kaoru smiled at her and said, "It's good to see you Caroline…" Caroline turned to see Kaoru's beautiful golden hues just inches from her face. Her breath caught and she could barely think as he asked, "Do you have the notes for class today I can't find mine."

Caroline nodded quickly as she said, "Yes they're in my bag…" She pulled up her bag and pulled out her notebook. She handed the notebook to him, but then quickly snatched it back again as she said, "Hang on a second…I want to make sure I didn't leave any doodles in there…" At that Hikaru reached across the desks and snatched the notebook from her right before she was able to get all her sketches out.

Hikaru laughed out loud and said, "Kaoru, get a look at this!" Now Caroline was blushing a deep red, because she knew which picture Hikaru had found. One of the days when Kaoru had fallen asleep in class Caroline decided to try and draw him. She did a really good job, at least that's what everyone had told her, but still she didn't want him seeing that. Kaoru walked over to his brother's desk and looked into the notebook to see the sketch. A big grin grew across his face, and a blush fell across his cheeks as he stared at the pictures. He then took it back from Hikaru and handed it back to Caroline.

When Kaoru sat down next to Caroline again he whispered, "It was really nice…"

Caroline was still flustered, so all she could get out was, "Thanks…here's the notes back."

Kaoru smiled and said, "Thank you…" He then took the notes and began copying them into his book before returning her notebook back to her. When he returned it back, she noticed the sketch was missing.

Caroline pouted and asked, "Kaoru…did you take…the um, picture of you I had in here?" With every word that came out Caroline felt more and more flustered about asking for it back.

Kaoru then said, "Yes…I took it, I'm sorry…it was just a really nice picture and a really nice gesture…to know you care about me that much…to have such a good drawing made…it's really special, like your note to me…"

Caroline blushed deeply and said, "Okay, fine…you can keep it."

The day went by in the blink of an eye. Every class she sat next to Kaoru and he would make her feel more and more uncomfortable, but at the same time so happy. Hikaru wasn't helping in much of it either as he would flirt right along with his brother. Today Haruhi left for Host Club early, so Hikaru and Kaoru walked with Caroline. They were each standing on each side of her, holding both of her arms, as they pulled her to Host Club.

Once they got to Host Club Kyoya smiled and said, "Ah, it looks like we may have a new twincest fan in our newest Hostess…is this true Caroline?"

Caroline blushed and was about to speak up when Tamaki said, "Of course not Kyoya! Our precious Caroline would never be seen with those shady twins…they are all bad for her…" Tamaki then turned to Caroline who was actually being drug in by said shady twins and he said, "Right Caroline…you don't like them…right?"

"Well, actually, Caroline is going on a date with me and Kaoru on Friday…" Hikaru stated as he stood tall against Tamaki. Tamaki pouted and ran off to his emo mushroom corner. Caroline sighed as she thought to herself This is going to be a long week!

Every day that week went exactly the same. Kaoru was making her notice that he liked her, but at the same time trying to stay as a distant friend, which only made her uncomfortable. Hikaru was trying to push her onto Kaoru, but at the same time trying to make her keep her distance, because Kaoru belonged to him. Then in Host Club everyone was falling all over themselves to get a piece of whatever it was that she suddenly carried. She was so glad whenever Friday finally came; it was a definite blessing in disguise.

Caroline walked to school as she always did, with people staring at her the entire time. She smiled brightly when she reached Ouran and saw Kaoru and Hikaru standing on the steps waiting for her. They walked down and met her at the entrance to the school saying, "Welcome Caroline." Each of them wrapped an arm around her lower back and walked her to class. When they sat down together Kaoru sat on her right and Hikaru on her left as they said, "Happy Friday Caroline!"

Hikaru then asked, "Do you remember what tonight is?"

Caroline giggled as she nodded and said, "Date night, but up…Hikaru, where is Haruhi going to sit?"

"In my usual seat…I wanted to be closer to you today Caroline…" Hikaru said as he inched his face closer to hers. Caroline kissed his cheek, then turned and kissed Kaoru's before ruffling their bright red hair.

"You are both so cute!" Caroline says as they both turn beat red.

Today was Caroline's turn to play, and she was playing hardball. Every class she took the opportunity to find a way to make one or both of the twins blush deeply. It seemed the twins were enjoying her little game as well, because at the end of every class they would both be wearing big goofy grins and a glazed over look on their faces.

At the end of classes the twins grab Caroline around her lower back again and drag her to Host Club. Right as they walk into Host Club the twins shout, "We're going on a date with Caroline tonight!"

Kyoya smiles and says, "Congratulations on your girl of choice gentleman. I would've been proud should it have been my honor." The last sentence Kyoya directed at Caroline, which made her blush deeply.

Hikaru turned and glared at Kyoya as he says, "It's not like she'd want someone as empty and cold-hearted as you!"

"Hikaru, calm down…" Kaoru starts as he lays his hand on his brother's shoulder.

Hikaru pulled away from his brother's grasp as he said, "No, Kaoru, he wants to steal her from us…"

"Hikaru, Caroline has made her choice with the two of you, and it is not in my capability to change that." Kyoya stated as he stared Hikaru down. When he saw that Hikaru wasn't budging he sighed and said, "Will you please stop whining and get ready, because club is going to start soon!" Kyoya shakes his head at the twins as he heads into the changing room.

Hikaru snarls at Kyoya, still feeling angry, as Kaoru escorted him to the changing room. Once out of the changing room Hikaru had a bright smile on his face. Caroline couldn't tell why, until Kyoya walked out and his glasses were crushed and broken. He wore the same serene face as he called his optometrist and got more glasses sent to the Host Club. Hikaru laughed as Kyoya placed the new glasses on his face, sadly not the same as his old. The glasses were actually an orangish-red and they were about a quarter inch around, so the orange was very visible. Kyoya glared at the twins, but quickly the glared deteriorated into a devilish grin. The twins looked at Kyoya and then at each other as they began mumbling about bezelnef and the powers black magic club.

Caroline laughed as she said, "That's what you get for messing with the Shadow King…" Kyoya gave off a small laugh, before returning to his work.

The twins looked back in surprise as they heard Kyoya laugh, they then turned back to Caroline and gave her a thumbs up as they say, "We didn't even know he had a sense of humor…"

"Of course he does, you just need to know the right buttons to push…" She bats her eye lashes at Kyoya, sweetly, as she said, "Isn't that right…dear…" Kyoya gave another chuckle as he nodded. They both knew how uppity that would get the twins. She looked over to see Kaoru pouting at her, so she came over and kissed him softly on the cheek as she whispered against his ear, "but Kyoya doesn't get to have me all to himself tonight, now does he?" She pulled away, a seductive smile playing on her lips and a bright blush playing on Kaoru's cheeks.

Hikaru turned to Kaoru and said, "What'd she say?" Kaoru just shook his head as he pulled his brother with him to stand in line for the Welcome. Host Club went on like it normally does. All the girls, and now boys, were leaving the Host Club as happy as they could possibly be, including the twins.

That night, Caroline was sitting in her apartment; she's already been ready since 4 o'clock, waiting for the time to be at Ouran. She was dressed casually, but still trying to show off her voluptuous curves, in a tight black spaghetti strap shirt with tight blue jeans and strappy black sandals. At around 7:30 she decided to head to school, but she was stopped by her landlord. "Hello, sir, how can I help you?" She asked politely.

He sighed solemnly and said, "Caroline, I'm very sorry, but I had to sell the apartments to the airport so they can make a new airport in the center of town. You have until tomorrow night to get your stuff packed up and find a place to live."

Caroline sighed and ran her hand through her hair as she said, "Alright, I'll-I'll find some place." The land lord smiled and walked away from her, unfazed by her predicament. She sighs and quickly checks her watch only to see its 7:40, "Crap twenty minutes." She whined running to the school.

In less than 10 minutes she was sitting outside Ouran huffing and puffing. After a few seconds of regrouping Hikaru ran out and said, "Caroline, good, your here! Please get Kaoru out of the dressing room!"

Caroline cocks an eyebrow and asks, "Why is he in the dressing room?"

Hikaru sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose as he said, "He's been in there since school ended! He says you'll hate the way he looks, God I swear I'm going to stab him!"

Caroline smiles brightly and says, "Alright, I'll take care of it..." She smiles and slowly walks in to the changing room.

Kaoru stepped out of one of the rooms and said, "Hikaru, I know she's going to hate it, but I've run out of ideas... What do y-" he stopped himself as he turned around and saw Caroline. He smiles, dressed in a tight white button up and black slacks, the shirt was fully unbuttoned and said, "So, um...what do you think?"

She blushed deeply and bit her bottom lip as she says, "Um, wow is the only thing I can think of... Will the shirt stay open?" She blushed deeper as she asked, but she thought it was a fair question.

He blushed deeply, looking down and seeing his shirt opened, and said, "Well, Hikaru would have noticed and fixed that, but if you like it, sure..."

Hikaru steps in and says, "What about me? Oh-ho looks like you guys were having fun..." It was then that Caroline noticed both of the, were beat red, breathing heavy, and with Kaoru's shirt practically off, it didn't look good. She blushed deeply as Hikaru said, "I told you to get him out of here, not out of his clothes!"

Kaoru then jabbed his brother in the stomach and said, "Leave her be, and tell us where we're going already!"

Hikaru smirked devilishly as he said, "Back home, for movies and pure romance...I even have cook preparing a romantic meal for the three of us..."

Hikaru then says, "So, now that you've come to our house when do we go to yours?"

Caroline bites her lip and says, "Well, you see, my apartment is...um...getting sold to the airport...I have until tomorrow night to get out..."

Hikaru then stopped in his tracks and said, "So wait, you have no place to stay?! Screw my ideas...your moving in with us! We'll spend the night packing up."

Kaoru's eyes widen and his cheeks flush as he says, "Whoa, what?!"

She bites her lip and says, "Are you okay with it?" Both twins nod and you smile brightly and say, "On to my apartment!" They walked very slowly towards her apartment, Hikaru pushing Caroline in to Kaoru every once in a while as they walked, because Caroline had to be in the middle between the two of them.

Once they finally got to her apartment Hikaru called their limo driver and said, "Alright…you need to get over here pretty quickly, in the moving van, we are moving our friend into our house." There was a pause and then Hikaru said, "Yes, it's a girl…yes…you'll find out when you get here…" They started walking into her apartment and the boys eyes opened wide at the mess along the floor.

Caroline blushed a hundred shades of red and started picking up her clothes as she said, "I'm really sorry about the mess…I thought I had cleaned this up…I…" She couldn't think of anything that would be able to describe how mortified she was at this moment. She finally put all her clothes back in her drawer and said, "So…this is my place right now…"

"It's so small…" Hikaru says as he walks in at Kaoru's side.

Kaoru shakes his head at his brother as he says, "It's a nice size for you Caroline…"

"Suck up…" Hikaru whispered to his brother.

"Can you two stop fighting and help me pack please?" Caroline asked as she started throwing things in a giant duffle bag.

Just as she asks that Hikaru picks up a pair of her skimpier underwear and says, "Are you sure we should help with this?" Kaoru is blushing profusely at what Hikaru has just picked up, and then looks over at Caroline as he mouths the word 'sorry'.

Caroline snatched the underwear out of Hikaru's hand and said, "Well, if you can't be grown up about it, no…you shouldn't help…" She then turned back to her bag as Hikaru came up on one side of her.

Hikaru placed one arm around her back as he leaned his face into her face and said softly, "I can be very grown up in certain situations."

Kaoru then came up on her other side, mimicking his brother's actions as he added seductively, "We can be very grown up in the right conditions." At that moment they both leaned in and kissed her cheek. Caroline blushes a deep crimson and smiles softly up at them.

Hikaru nods and says, "This toy will be much more fun than Haruhi!"

Caroline then turns to Kaoru and says, "Oh, so you do this with Haruhi too, so I'm not special." Her features begin to turn down as tears spring to the corners of her eyes.

Kaoru then turned to Hikaru and said, "I never considered Haruhi our toy, and I don't think that way about Caroline."

Hikaru pushed Kaoru and said, "You're the one who said you wanted to play with Caroline."

Kaoru pushed Hikaru back and said, "I didn't mean with you!" As he said this Hikaru stumbled backwards and hit his head on the corner of Caroline's bedside table. The instant Hikaru hit his head Kaoru fell to his side and said, "Hikaru, are you okay?"

Hikaru had tears streaming down his face as he looked up at his brother and said quietly, so only Kaoru could hear, "Is this how you felt about me and Haruhi?" Kaoru sighed and nodded as he touches Hikaru's forehead. Hikaru cringes and says, louder this time, "Caroline can you get me some bandages for my head?"

Caroline nodded as she said, "Absolutely Hikaru, stay right there, I will be back as soon as I can."

While Caroline was gone Hikaru questioned Kaoru, "So, do you have feelings for Caroline?"

Kaoru shrugged as he said, "I do, but I still don't know if she loves me, or us."

Hikaru pushed his brothers chest as he says, "So what if she does love us both…if she can love us for being our own person…if she can recognize me from you…shouldn't that be enough?" Hikaru then pushes himself up and sits up on Caroline's bed.

Kaoru sighs and looks around, wondering what he should do. He knows he cares about Caroline, but would he really be willing to give up Hikaru to be with Caroline? Would she even ask him to do that? Kaoru didn't know what Caroline would want from him; all he knew was that the world his brother and he had created was breaking apart at the seams. More and more people were entering into their world. Now it wasn't just Haruhi, now it was Caroline. The fairy tale he saw once before, with Haruhi and Hikaru, it was growing, it was a bigger family now, more friends than ever before. Could he and Hikaru handle it?

Kaoru's eyes closed as he envisioned himself with Caroline, hand in hand, walking down the isle, Hikaru standing on the sidelines, crying. Kaoru shook his head; he wasn't going to let that be his brother. If Caroline loved him, she would love Hikaru too. Just as he was about to say something to Hikaru Caroline walked into the room with bandages. She didn't say a word to Kaoru as she walked past him over to Hikaru and started working on Hikaru's bandages. Kaoru stared at her with a goofy smile on his face, both happy and fascinated, as Caroline helped Hikaru. She then smiled at him and said, "Does that feel better?" Her face inches from him as she asked it; they were getting so close even Kaoru was getting uncomfortable.

Hikaru blushed as he leaned up and kissed her softly on the lips. Caroline pulled back and blushed deeply as Hikaru said, "Now I do." Hikaru pulled back and laughed, his laugh sounded less funny and more nervous.

Kaoru looked from Hikaru to Caroline, his eyes filling up with a light line of tears as he finds the words to say, "Why would you do that to her?"

"What's wrong Kaoru? Can't stand a little competition for your woman?" Hikaru asks, his devilish smirk growing wider.

Kaoru then pulls back into a pout, like he did in their skits, as he said, "No, I just was wondering why you wouldn't do that to me."

Caroline's jaw drops and she starts cracking up as she says, "Looks like your plan backfired Hikaru."

Hikaru looked to Caroline and said, "What do you mean?"

"You wanted Kaoru to realize how much he felt for me, but now he's just closer to you…" She said as she begins wiping the laughing tears from her eyes.

Kaoru pouted and said, "Hikaru wouldn't do that to me…right, Hikaru?"

Hikaru ran his hand through his soft flaming red hair as he says, "Well Kaoru, you get so clingy to me; sometimes I need to influence you that you are in love with a girl. However, it's not like I didn't enjoy the kiss Cherie'…" Hikaru's eyes were barely open as he smirked over at Caroline, who blushed deeply. Kaoru pushed his brother's shoulder and went to Caroline's side.

"Hikaru, let's stop playing around and get back ho…oh what's this!" Kaoru said as his sentence died off when he finds one of Caroline's sketch books.

Caroline blushes deeply as she says, "It's my sketch book. You guys will probably find a lot of pictures of yourselves in there. So, you two enjoy that and try to get along, while I finish packing up my stuff."
