My first Ouran fanfic, enjoy!

I always needed time on my own

Hikaru had done it. As he raced to his brother's room he felt tears strating to form in his eyes. He flung the door open and panting looked bewildered at the scene before him.

"Kaoru"

I never thought I'd need you there when I cry

He slumped to the floor. He knew it was his fault, he knew he shouldn't have pushed Kaoru. But he did. Now he had to pay the consequences.

And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie
is made up on your side

He had made his bed and packed his things. Hikaru looked at him, pleading. Please.

When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

Kaoru glanced at him coldly and left without taking a single look at him. For the first time in years Hikaru crumbled. He broke. And for the first time in his life his brother wasn't there.


When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too

He stayed there for hours. He felt cold. Very cold. He looked at the mirror they had cracked during their fight. It shows to him what he felt. A person broken both inside and out.

When you're gone
All the words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you

Hikaru always had his other half by his side. Never had he felt so alone. Even when the kids teased them at school he always had Kaoru by his side. To tell him everything was alright.

I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do
Reminds me of you

He woke up the next day hoping it was all a bad dream. But seeing the bed next to him empty, tears threatened to fall once again. But then he reminded himself that Kaoru always woke up earlier then him. He raced downstairs. The dining room was empty. It wasn't a dream.

And the clothes you left
they lie on my floor
And they smell just like you
I love the things that you do

As he returned to their room he saw Kaoru's clothes strewn on the floor, in a hurry to get out yesterday. He picked them up, one by one. As he picked up Kaoru's favourite shirt he hugged it as if it was really him. But it wasn't.


When you walk away

I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?

He lays on the bed and he sees Kaoru leaving again and again and again. He cried to himself the rest of the day and promptly fell asleep.

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too

He really couldn't help but hope. Because hope was the only thing keeping him from falling completely into darkness.

And when you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day
And make it OK
I miss you

Without his brother he really was nothing. Without his brother he was only a half of a whole.


We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
Yeah Yeah

Why else were we born together? Why else did we spend our lives in each others presence? Why else did we only have Us in our world? We were meant to be two halves of a whole. Right?


All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe, I need
to feel you here with me
Yeah

"Please, Kaoru, come back"

When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you

There was someone at the door watching him. He had heard the words the other had said.

When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too

"Hikaru."

The other one leapt up, surprise written all over his face.

When you're gone
The words I need to hear will always get me through the day
And make it OK

Hikaru pulled his brother into a bone crushing hug.

I missed you.

The song isn't mine and neither are the characters. The song is When you're gone by Avril Lavigne and the characters belong to Ouran High School Host Club (well, duh)

Hope you enjoyed it!!
