Prologue: The Door The Twins Opened
"Remember Kaoru, we can't be moved by what that foolish lord says." I told Kaoru, my hand placed on the doorhandle. I could feel the cold metal curled underneath my hands. So I took the handle too, sharing the weight of this decision. Neither of us really knew what to expect, we just knew that something about what that Tamaki Suoh had said got to us. Contradictory? What did he mean contradictory? We were exactly the same. At least we were on the outside. We had always known that we were different from one another. The one that was not me was Hikaru. The one that was not me was Kaoru. We were different people. We were different, but we had shut ourselves off from the world because we didn't think that anyone could ever see us.
"Yeah, I know. We're just here to kill some time." I looked down at my hand that now grasped the doorknob. Both of us were only here because it would be interesting. As soon as we got bored of it we would leave. That foolish lord wouldn't be able to hold us there with his melodramatic words. He wouldn't be able to unlock our hearts. No one had been able to before, and no one would be able to in the future. What he said though, the idea that someone may be able to tell us apart in the future, if only we would open ourselves up to the face. It was complete shit. It was something to hope for. In the future.
"Right, that's it. We're just killing some time. Let's open the doors together" I smiled over at Kaoru. He was the only one that had ever really known me, and I felt somewhat afraid as I stood there, grasping the handle of the Music room in the high school. I wasn't afraid. I think even a part of me was excited at this chance to finally do something that we had never allowed ourselves to do. We were still together, even if we were just broadening our horizons a little bit. I took a breath. I took a breath.
"Ready, set." Go. Go.

A/N - So this idea has been on my mind for a while. I do have a few chapters planned out, but I am going to see how many people respond to this. Most of all I am worried that it s confusing. If you didn't figure it out, Kaoru is the one in normal print and Hikaru is the one in italics. I do not own Ouran, either the Japanese dialogue or the dubbed English dialogue. Please review and let me know what you think!
