Blip: And just so you know the whole story is going to be Hikaru's POV
Chapter One: Just The Two Of Us…Or So I thought
It was raining so the initial plan to take the day off and go out for a picnic was canceled. The forecast had predicted clear skies and sun but low and behold the rain had started up sending a sever storm warning our way. There was no thunder or lightning yet so I guessed Haruhi would be alright for the moment. We would just have to watch her very closely. Over in the corner was Kyoya. Typing away on his laptop the boss was screeching in his ear telling him to get off that thing before the oncoming lightning fried his brain. I suppose Kaoru and myself forgot to mention to clueless that laptops aren't plugged into the electric systems of the school and that they run on their own batteries. Oh well more fun for us. Taking a good glance around the room I guess it should have occurred to me that my twin Kaoru wasn't with us. Usually his cheerful expression would have been there to light up the place but seemingly in those spilt seconds when he was no where to be found the room had begun to grow dark. Getting up out of the seat I had planted myself I had begun to walk off towards the hall. Suddenly there was a small voice calling my name; it was Haruhi.
"Hikaru." Haruhi whispered softly trailing after me slowly.
"Hu?" I questioned turning around to look into worried mocha eyes.
"Where are you headed?" Haruhi asked trying to sound as calm and collected as possible.
"After Kaoru. You haven't seen him have you?" I commented looking around for the identical redhead.
"I think he went to the bathroom. I'm sure he'll be back in a minute or so." Haruhi said taking a glance at the still nagging Tamaki and annoyed Kyoya.
"Still I'd like to go see if he's alright. I mean with the storm coming and everything." I managed to say before a large clap of thunder sounded across the room.
"Ah!" Haruhi screamed grabbing a hold of my uniform. "Please don't go."
"Calm down, Haruhi. You're inside so there's no way the lightning will get you." I replied walking her over to Tamaki who had just lifted his gaze over in our direction.
"Are you alright, Haruhi?" Tamaki murmured as I pushed her into his arms; Haruhi and I are good friends but I don't think there will ever be anything more between us.
"Sempai." Haruhi cried softly into his jacket; these were the only time she ever seemed weak.
"Boss, have you seen Kaoru? I'm starting to get a little worried." I asked the blonde cradling Haruhi.
"Kaoru? I haven't seen him for a while now that you mention it." Tamaki answered rubbing his chin lightly.
"Hika-chan, you don't know where Kao-chan is?" Hunny questioned pulling a big red lollipop out from behind his lips.
"I could have sworn he was here like five minutes ago. I wonder where he ran off to…it's not like him." I stated starting to feel rather uneasy.
"Tamaki, didn't Kaoru say something along the lines of going outside to meet someone?" Kyoya had suddenly replied looking up from the lighted screen of his laptop.
"OUTSIDE IN THE STORM?! THAT IDIOT IS GOING TO GET HIMSELF KILLED!" I practically screamed running for the hall in a panic.
"Hikaru wait!" Haruhi called looking after me.
"You're being irrational." Kyoya sighed closing the laptop to get up from his seat.
"YOU'RE BEING IRRATIONAL!" I growled suddenly bumping into something rather soft.
"See." Kyoya taunted looking over the brim of his glasses.
Shaking my head back and forth I looked up from the spot I had landed in. There sitting in front of me was a girl who looked to be about fifteen years of age. She had blonde chin length hair with an amethyst streak and had two large cerulean colored eyes. A light bunch of freckles covered the bridge of her nose and cheeks along with a crimson blush. She was wearing a short black and purple ruffled spaghetti strapped dress with two purple ribbons fastened on either side of her head. Around her neck was a sliver locket in the shape of a heart. Starring at me and then looking around rather dazed, I watched rather confused as tears brimmed in her eyes. Suddenly hearing the sound of footsteps rounding the corner I looked away from where the girl was sitting. Soon enough I spotted the footsteps owner; it was my beloved brother Kaoru. Bolting up right I flew past the girl over to where my twin was located. Expecting some sort of embrace or reinsurance Kaoru flew right past me and over to that strange female; what the hell was going on? Helping her up I just stood there with my hands on my hips red as a lobster. Who was this chick and why was she with MY Kaoru?
"Kaoru, who is that chick?" I questioned seemingly foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog.
"Hikaru, calm down will ya? Her name's Hotaru." Kaoru responded casually as he wiped of the bits of dirt on her dress.
"Kao-chan, is that him?" Hotaru whispered softly eyeballing me with a warily.
"Yeah. That's my twin brother Hikaru." Kaoru smiled or at least I thought he was smiling at me.
"Why's she here?" I asked with a frown as Hotaru wrapped her arm around my brother's forearm.
"Remember those letters we sent out a year ago to those American students? Well, Hotaru who's originally from Japan moved to American some time ago. I ended up sending her a letter and we've been chatting as pen pals ever since." Kaoru said cheerfully as he petted her light hair. "Hotaru is apart of an exchange student program and Ouran was a place she wanted to visit. I arranged it with Kyoya and here she is."
"So you mean to tell me that this girl whom you've never met only talked to is coming to study here at Ouran Academe?" I questioned trying to keep from gritting my teeth.
"Yeah. And I know we've all just met, but Hotaru is coming to room with us as well." Kaoru explained as I fell backwards onto my behind in utter disgust and surprise.
"At our house?" I gasped trying to keep a grip on reality.
"Didn't I already clarify that?" Kaoru giggled offering me his hand.
"Kaoru, this isn't fair!" I whined smacking his hand away.
"Hikaru, you're acting childish." Kaoru replied placing his hands on his hips.
"And you're selfish!" I hollered getting up and taking off out of Music Room 3.
"I hope I'm not causing too much trouble…" Hotaru began before Kaoru yelled after me.
"HIKARU!" I could hear my brother scream as I bolted towards the stairs. "HIKARU!"
~I think I understand now why I had acted that way towards Hotaru when I first met her. She was a rival in my eyes…someone who was going to steal my brother away. No scratch that…someone who was going to steal my everything away. I think it was at that moment in time that I had answered the very question I had mulled over for so long. Was I really truly in love with Kaoru?
