"Damn." Tamaki threw his cards down in annoyance as Hikaru claimed more of his money yet again, a satisfied smirk on his face. "You know something Tamaki-senpai? You really suck at cards." Kaoru chuckled at his brothers comment. Tamaki snorted, "Don't get cocky, I'll turn things around." He said with the faintest trace of a smirk on his face.

"We've been playing for an hour and you've only won one round, do you have what it takes to keep playing?" Hikaru said as he quickly shuffled the cards again. "Don't you worry, my luck will change, just you wait and see." Tamaki said confidently.

Hikaru smirked at Kaoru, "Maybe we should play something easier, 'Snap' perhaps?" Kaoru said mischievously. Tamaki growled and slammed his money onto the table which shook violently, "Just. Deal." He said, voice dangerously low. Hikaru chuckled at the older mans waning patience.

Tamaki groaned out loud and let his head hit the table after losing three more rounds. "This has got to be a joke." He mumbled into his cards while Hikaru started counting the money he had collected. "Want to call it a day?" he asked with a smile at the large pile of notes he held in his left hand. "Damn, I'm calling it quits." Tamaki said as he put the small remaining amount of his money back into his wallet with a frustrated sigh.

"Oh and remember to keep this just between us." Kaoru said as Tamaki stood to leave causing the older man to give him a puzzled look. "Why?"

"Kaoru! Hikaru!" The twins winced at the loud yell of their names as Kyouya appeared at the doorway. "What have I told you two about gambling?! It lowers the reputation of our Host Club when you engage is such activities. How much have you taken from Tamaki?" Hikaru smiled innocently as he tried to hide the wad of money he had just collected, while Tamaki stood to the side of the door looking adorably confused by the current situation.

"Hand it over." Kyouya demanded, hand outstretched. "But Kyou…" Kyouya glared interrupting Hikaru, "No buts, hand it over." Hikaru sighed and handed over the money to the clubs shadow leader who grabbed the money and stalked out of the room muttering to himself about putting the money to better use. "So this is why you told me to keep it a secret." Tamaki commented once Kyouya had left.

Hikaru and Kaoru ran his hands through their hair at the same time and gave frustrated sighs, "He always manages to catch us ever since we managed to get Honey-senpai to play with us a month ago. He caught us in the middle of a winning streak and went crazy at us." Hikaru said with a shrug. "I don't know how he always knows." Kaoru said with a sigh. Tamaki smiled, "He is our Host Club's mother figure after all." he said feeling slightly happier with the outcome of the night since Hikaru and Kaoru now had less to gloat over afterwards.
