Chapter One
"Hika! We're going to be late again!" I plead to my brother, who was currently giving a couple girls nosebleeds by flirting with them. 'He should really save his energy for the club' I thought to myself.
"Hold your horses, Kaoru. It's going to be fine. No one will care." Hikaru told me. 'No one but Kyoya' I thought back.
"Yeah, but it would be rude to keep out guests waiting." I said, trying to hide the real reason I wanted to be there so badly. With a heavy sigh Hikaru nodded and waved good bye to the two fan girls and linked arms with me. We sped to the Music Room #3, at least I did anyways, I was basically dragging Hikaru the whole way.
When Hikaru and I entered the music room, Tamaki was playing the piano for his guests who looked completely engulfed in his music to pay any attention to us as we slipped behind them. Tamaki looked up and smiled at us as we passed to go to the back where Kyoya was sitting. Our twin act was going to be starting soon. We leaned on the back of Kyoya's chair and said in unison, "Hello Kyoya, sorry we're late." Kyoya sighed and looked up, obviously annoyed that we were interrupting him. "That's good, now get over there and give those girls what they came for." "Of course," we said as a devilish smile appeared on our faces.
"… and so then Kaoru tripped and fell while he was chasing the puppy! He scrapped his knees and his hand. He was scared and bleeding, so he started crying!" Hikaru told the deeply interested girls with a laugh.
"Hikaru! Why would you tell them that?! And I didn't cry!" I pretended to whine while I blushed some and looked away.
"I'm sorry Kaoru. I only told them that because it was so cute when you were trying to chase after the little puppy!" He whispered to me lovingly, one hand holding my body the other holding my face while he continued to apologize. 'Queue roses in the background,' I thought as I was crushed against his chest, my arms folded against me.
"I forgive you, Hikaru." I breathed while I rested my head against him. The girls watching squealed and screamed in excitement. After that we continued our 'forbidden twin love' act. All the while he was holding me and kissing my cheek lightly, I couldn't help but imagine that Hikaru was someone else instead. I imagined that my older twin was a taller male with deep dark eye, smooth skin, and soft black hair. I couldn't help but imagine it was Kyoya.
I never told Hikaru about it, I am always afraid he will go out and tell everyone, or worse, get upset about me liking someone, even though he probably wouldn't, but it's better to be safe then sorry. At least that's what I keep telling myself. I'm not sure when I fell in love with him. It could have been the first time I saw him in middle school passing in the hall; it could have been when I joined the Host Club. But that doesn't matter now. It happened and I can't change it. I am in love with the third son of the Ootori family. This wasn't the safe kind of love either, this was the dangerous kind. One false move, one slip of the tongue, one out of place blush and his chances of becoming the Ootori family successor were gone. That was his dream, his goal, and I wouldn't take that away from him, even if it means losing my love.
After the Club closed for the day, I sat down on the couch next to Hikaru. He was sitting next to Haruhi, playing with her hair while the Boss complained about it, 'That's my little girl! You can't do that to her!' he shouted. I couldn't pay attention now; I was distracted by the way Kyoya was staring at me from across the room. His gaze was so strong I couldn't look away, but it wasn't as icy and bottomless as it usually is, it was a little warmer and if I kept looking I'm sure I could find the bottom, though it may still be dark.
It was like he was trying to read my mind, or see into my soul or something. The gaze was starting to give me goose bumps and it was making me self-conscious and so I blushed and attempted to avert my gaze. As I blushed, Kyoya's eye widened just a fraction of an inch, but enough for me to notice. Had he assumed that I liked, or loved him? Surely that one small thing couldn't say something that huge, right? I don't think I've even done anything to make him think that have I? I never talk to him unless I'm with Hikaru, and I never stand to close to him, except in the group photos, but that's because Hikaru wants to. 'What am I worrying about? Nothing has been figured out, he doesn't suspect a thing, and maybe he just forgot something… its possible right?' I reassured myself.
"Kaoru, may I talk in private for a moment?" Kyoya asked me in a nonchalant manner. The reassurance that I had just given myself had vanished instantly, and left me with nothing but fear. Though he asked as if nothing was wrong or suspected, it still made me worry that has it all figured out.
I cleared my throat. "Of course Sempai," and followed him out of the room into a private back room. My heart was pounding out of my chest the entire time we walked. My forehead was starting to dew with sweat from the all too possible anxiety of him knowing my little secret. The others watched as we walked into the other room, Hikaru had stopped tormenting the Boss and had a confused, almost worried expression on his face. It was almost never good when the Shadow King had to pull you to the side.
We entered the small room, which had been made up like an office for some reason; it had a big desk and a large leather chair behind it and a chair in front of it on the other side of the desk facing it. Kyoya asked me to sit, and I did without a word. He remained standing and started circling around me; almost as if he was a shark and I was the poor helpless pray he was planning to dine on. This made me even more nervous then I already was. He stopped in front of me after a few rounds and bent to eye level. He put his hands on the arms of the chair and leaned into me. His face was only a couple inches from mine now.
"Kaoru is there something you would like to tell me?" as Kyoya asked, the air around him swirled and blew the sent of his delicious cologne towards me. The sudden closeness made me dizzy with desire for him and I couldn't help but breathe it in.
"I don't understand what you are talking about Kyoya." I tried to pretend like nothing was wrong. At that he smiled, a wicked smile that only the Shadow King himself could make.
"Don't try to play dumb, I see you watching me from across the room all the time. Not to mention when you and your brother do your little act, you always close your eyes, and I know it's not part of the act. You're imagining someone else. May I take a guess at who it is, or are you going to tell me?" He asked, the wicked smile still playing on his soft lips. I gulped. My secret has been compromised. He knew, and he was going to force it out of me, or worse, guess wrong!
So I took a deep breath, looked him straight in the eyes and whispered, "I love you Kyoya, I love you so much, you don't even know. But you probably don't feel the same way so I didn't say anything, and I didn't want to ruin your chances of being your family's successor and…" I rambled on aimlessly trying to recover. All the while he was looking me in the eyes with an unsurprised expression.
Suddenly, his lips were on mine. I was still rambling and it caught me by surprise, so I gasped. He stopped for a moment to gage my reaction and smiled a soft, warm and gentle smile. This smile was new to me and was out of character for him. I sighed a little and leaned in to kiss him for real. Our lips only met for a moment when he quickly pulled away. I looked up in surprise.
"We've been in here for too long. They will start to wonder what's going on. If anyone asks, even Hikaru, tell them you were helping me plan the next theme, and it's a surprise if they ask what it is, ok?" Behind his soft eyes there was a real warning that said more like "If you tell anyone about this you will not live to see tomorrow no matter how much I love you."
"What ever you say," I said breathlessly still locked into his gaze.
"Then meet me tomorrow at my house around 3p.m to help 'plan the next theme'" I nodded and he pulled me back to him and kissed me one last time before we got up and left the room. I was still blushing when we entered the crowded room. Everyone stopped and looked at us for a moment and then continued about their business. Hikaru came up hung on me.
"What were you two doing in there? I missed you!" Hikaru asked.
"Just planning a theme for one of the upcoming events," I lied to Hikaru, trying to keep my cool.
"Oh! What is it? Is it mountain theme? Haruhi has never been to the mountains before! That would be amazing!" Hikaru explained. Haruhi, who could hear him clearly, was looking irritated, she hated when he did things like that.
"It's a secret. I'm sorry. You'll have to wait just like everyone else to find out!" I winked at him and went over to sit on the couch. Kyoya had returned to his seat and was once again writing on his clipboard. He would occasionally look up and catch my gaze, but other then that he never did anything that would hint anything.
