Full summary: Hikaru and Kaoru just graduated and soon will be attending Ouran University. Then one night after being grounded, Hikaru decides to sneak out of the house with Kaoru to go to a graduation party. But on the way there, they get into an accident, leaving Kaoru dead. But even after death, their strong brotherly bond keeps them together. After a few have passed, Hikaru meets a former friend which leads him to a difficult decision. Remain stuck in the past, or let love lead him to the future.


I stood up and stretched, after a long afternoon of hosting, it was finally time to close up the club, for good. Tomorrow was our graduation ceremony, then we'll be off to Ouran University.

Kaoru finished packing up his bag and sighed. "I can't believe this is the last day of the host club." He looked around the room, taking everything in one last time. "It felt just like yesterday that we all just started the club."

I picked up my bag. "Yep, I can't believe we're actually going to college already, high school felt like it just flew by."

Kaoru nodded. "Yep."

I heard quiet laughter from across the room. I averted my attention to Haruhi and Tamaki cleaning up together. Even though Kaoru, Haruhi and I were the only ones that were still in high school. Tamaki and the others hosts came from the university to still host, which we were happy they did. Haruhi let her hair grow to almost her shoulder, but she still wore the male uniform. Kaoru also decided to grow out his hair, but it was only a couple centimeter longer than mine.

Haruhi and Tamaki were still dating from last year, to my surprise, I thought that it would last only six months at most. I would love to say that I was over her, but after a year and a half of them being together, I still loved her, and seeing them together made me extremely jealous.

I silently growled and began to walk to the door. "Come on, our driver's waiting for us."

Kaoru nodded and followed me. We said our goodbyes to everyone, then left the club room.


When we got home, I just flopped on the couch exhausted.

I rubbed my eyes. "God, today was so tiring." I felt like I was about to pass out halfway through club."

Kaoru sat down on the couch across from me. "Well today was the last day of the host club. All the guests wanted to spend the last day with their favorite hosts. And we also had a lot of new guests as well."

"Can I be honest with you? I'll miss being in the club, but I won't miss doing our twincest act."

Kaoru chuckled. "Yah, I agree with you there."

As we continued to talk, we heard our mom walk into the living room.

"Oh, you boys are already home, you're earlier than usual."

"Yah." I sighed. "It was the last day of the host club, so we got to leave early."

"Well." Mom said she smoothed out her dress. "I have to go to the company building to get a fabric for the line I'm working on." She grabbed her purse and walked over to the door. She opened it and looked over at us. "Also boys. Please don't go into my designing room, I'm working on the new line in there and I don't want anyone messing with it."

"All right mom." We said insync.

Mom left and I sat up when I heard the front door close. I stood up and smirked over at Kaoru.

"Come on, let's go check it out."

"Huh?" Kaoru asked confused.

I began to walk to my mom's office. "Let's go see the new line."

"Wait hold on." Kaoru shot up from the couch. "You're really going to mom's office right after she told us not to go in there?"

"Yep." I said, popping the P at the end.

Kaoru ran up to me and put a hand to my chest to stop me. "She doesn't want us messing with her line Hikaru. We're going to get in trouble."

I took his hand off my chest. "I'm not going to tamper with the line." I began walking to the office again.

"Hikaru." Kaoru called out following after me.

I opened the door to my mom's office and turned on the lights. I smiled when I saw the clothes from the line displayed on dress forms.

"Woah." I said astonished.

I walked into the office while Kaoru stayed by the door. I walked up to one of the dresses and touched the hot pink fabric, which was surprising soft. It had gold like flowers around the lower chest to the top of the hips. The fabric drapped over the left shoulder, leaving the right shoulder bare.

"Wow, these dresses are amazing. No wonder mom doesn't want us in here."

"Hikaru I don't think this is a good idea. We should just leave before something bad happens."

I huffed in annoyance. "Kaoru stop worrying. Nothing is going to happen." I went behind the dress form and looked at Kaoru. I smirked and grabbed the form, making it move. "Isn't it pretty Kaoru, don't you think Haruhi will look great in it?"

"Yah, yah, Haruhi would look great in it. Now let's go."

I just chuckled and kept playing with the dress form. I moved back a bit, bumping into a desk.

My chuckling stopped as I heard something fall. I turned around and saw that my mom's sewing box fell off the table and hit one of the dress forms, then that hit another one, then another one, and another one. Soon making a whole chain reaction.

When the last dress form fell, I just stood there frozen and slowly looked behind me, I was appalled at what I saw. My mom's whole line was on the floor, cluttered together. I then heard laughter from behind me.

I turned around and glared. "Shut up!"

Kaoru put his hand to his mouth and laughed harder.

I growled. "I said shut up!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." He laughed. "But I warned you."

I leaned down and grabbed one of the dress forms. "I know, I know. Now help me pick up these dresses."

His laughter faded and he crossed his arms over his chest. He gave a smug smirk.

"No."

I glared at him harder. "What do you mean no?!"

He leaned on the door frame. "I kept warning you not to go in here. But you wouldn't listen."

I growled and began to get up. "Ok I'm sorry, I should've listen to you, but can you please help…"

As I stood up, I heard a loud tear. My eyes widened and I looked down and saw that I was still holding the dress form, and the dress had a large tear that stopped midway of the dress.

My expression grew horrified. "Shit, shit, shit."

"Oh nice going Hikaru, how are you going to fix that?"

"I-I can just sew it. Mom taught us. Yah, I can just sew it." As I went to reach for my mom's sewing box, I heard another loud tear. I quickly turned around and expression grew even more horrified. My foot was caught in another dress and when I was trying to reach for the sewing box, it ripped.

I quickly stood up and back up a bit. "Oh crap, mom's going to kill me."

"Dude, you're in big trouble." Kaoru said.

"Yes he is." An angry voice said.

My eyes widened and I looked behind me to see my mom standing there with her arms crossed behind Kaoru, with an angry expression on her face.

I gave a nervous smile. "Hey mom, you're home early. Did you forget something?"

My mom's expression hardened and I gulped, trying to mentally prepare myself for what's about to happen.


It was the next day and Kaoru and I were getting ready for graduation. Well, Kaoru mostly was.

"Mom!" I whined as I followed her around the house. "Please can I go?"

"No Hikaru, you disobeyed me when I basically told you not to. You also ruined two of the dresses I made." Mom said.

"But Mom, it's the graduation party, you can't ground me from going to that."

Mom began to walk down the stairs. "I'm your mother, I can ground you from anything."

"Can you please let me go to the party, then you can do anything to me after. You can even kill me if you want to."

Mom grabbed her purse and looked through it for her keys. "No you're not going to the party and that's final."

"But mom!" I whined louder. "Kaoru's aloud to go."

Mom walked over to the closet and grabbed her coat. "Because he isn't grounded." She put her coat on. "But he's not going to go either, he's on Hikaru duty."

"Mom!"

She glared at me and put her hands on her hips. "Hikaru, you're acting like a four year old, you're eighteen. You have to take your punishment for disobeying me. So you're not going to the party, and that's final. So zip it." She walked over to the door and opened it. "Now I'm going to get my hair done, I'll be back in about an hour."

"But mom-"

But she closed the door before I could finish speaking.


The graduation ceremony just ended and all the newly graduates were now talking with friends and family.

"Wah! I can't believe our whole family graduated." Tamaki cried as he hugged Haruhi, Kaoru and me.

I growled and tried to push him away from me. "God Tono, get away from me. I don't want your freakin snot and tears on me."

"B-But, I'm going to miss you guys so much."

Kaoru smiled. "You're going to see us at the University, so you don't have to miss us. Also you're dating Haruhi, so you definitely don't have to miss her."

Tamak hugged us harder. "I know, but it's still so sad to see you all graduate. You're all growing up so fast."

I growled again and pushed everyone away from me, I then smoothed out my red graduation robe.

"Why are so angry Hikaru? You've been acting like this since the beginning of graduation." Haruhi asked.

"Actually, he's been acting like this since yesterday. Mom grounded him yesterday because he disobeyed her by going into her office and he accidently trashed it."

"And now I can't go to the freakin graduation party." I huffed and crossed my arms. "Even though my mom has to go to freakin work after graduation."

Kaoru put on a smug smile and put his hand to his chest. "And she put me on Hikaru duty."

"Oh shut up, I'm not a freakin kid. I don't need anybody to watch over me."

"Well you acted like one this morning."

I glared over at him. "Go die in a hole." I growled and began to walk away.

"Aw don't say that." Kaoru said smugly. "You're going to regret that if it happens."

"I highly doubt that."


I was laying on my bed in my room, looking up at the ceiling angrily.

"Ugh, I'm so bored." I sat up. "Why did she have to freakin ground me from going to the graduation party, I only graduate high school once."

I sighed and just looked down. My attention then turned to the window, and a light bulb lit up in my head.

I smirked. "Maybe I can still go to the party, but I'll have to go alone."

I got up from my bed and went over to my door. I slowly opened the door to make sure Kaoru wasn't there. When I didn't see him, I left my room and quietly went downstairs. I then grabbed my keys and walked out of the house.

I walked over to my car, with a smile on my face. I got into the car and put the keys into the ignition, turning on the car. But when the headlights turned on.

"Stop!" Kaoru yelled, holding his hands out in front of him.

I hit the steering wheel. "Jeez, what the..!" I rolled down the window and leaned out of it. "What are you doing?"

Kaoru crosses his arms. "What are you doing? You're grounded."

"I know, but it's our graduation party, I have to go."

"And you were just going to leave me here?"

"...Do you want to come?"

Kaoru glared at me

"Come on please." I begged. "I promise I'll do anything for you, no matter how long or difficult it'll be."

Kaoru kept glaring at me, then sighed. "Alright, but I'm coming with you." He walked up to the car and got into the passenger seat. "I'm still on Hikaru duty."

I rolled my eyes and began to drive out of the driveway. "Dick."

"Bite me."


We were about halfway from school and Kaoru and I just sat in silence, listening to the radio.

"Kaoru, keep an eye out for cops. I don't have my licenses on me."

Kaoru just sat there silently, not responding to me.

I turned down the radio a bit. "Hey man, be on the look out for cops."

"Whatever." Kaoru responded broadly.

"Kaoru." I punched him in the arm playfully. "Cheer up."

Kaoru glared at me and rubbed his arm.

"Come on Kaoru, Kaoru baby." I looked over at him with a playful grin.

"You really want to go to this party don't you, even after mom grounded you."

I groaned. "Come on Kaoru, you're still on about that. Look, mom isn't going to be home until morning, so we'll be fine."

"It's not just that." Kaoru said.

"Then what else is wrong?"

"I thought, because you were grounded...Maybe we could spend some quality twin time together, like we use to."

"We always spend time together, and we can spend some more time together at the party because we don't need to host anymore girls."

Kaoru didn't say anything and just looked out the window.

"Cheer up man." I looked at the mirror and saw him still looking out the window. "You got one second to cheer up."

I punched him very hard in the arm and Kaoru gasped in pain as he grabbed his arm.

He glared at me. "You're lucky that isn't my good arm."

I gave him a smirk. "Or what?"

"I can kick your ass."

I looked at him a bit surprised, then back at the road. I hit him again. Kaoru smirked then started hitting me. I tried to hit him back, but also trying to keep one hand on the wheel.

"Alright, alright." I said. When he wouldn't stop I got sterner. "Kaoru I'm driving!"

Kaoru sat back in his seat and sighed, then after a couple seconds I punched him in the arm again and he gasped.

I pulled up to an intersection and turned on my turning signal to turn left.

"Come on." I said impatiently as I watched more cars pass by.

I turned the steering wheel, getting ready to turn, until I heard the screeching of tires. I looked at the side mirror and saw the headlights of a car speeding towards us, roughly hitting the back of my car, making us turn sideways.

I looked behind me to see what happened, and then heard a trunk horn honking. I turned to look out the passenger window and saw a huge truck barreling towards us. My eyes widened in horror.

"Hikaru?" Kaoru asked.

Then the truck hit us, and everything went black.
