A/N:

It's me again! I wanted to thank all of you who have been reading this story, put it on their favorite list, and have it on their alert list. I am very honored. ^_^

Well, here is the long awaited chapter two. As promised, the Hitachiin Twins have arrived. Sadly, this story is taking off much slower than I was anticipating. It's taking me a while to figure out how to get from the beginning to where I want it to go, but have no fear! Since my local Library just got the manga series, I'm going back and reading it. It gives me a ton of inspiration and lots of laughs. When I started thinking about this story I had only read the first two books and seen all 24 episodes. Now I see how much I've been missing!

Anyway, reviews are nice. Please take the poll on my profile and, if you'd like, read the preview found on my quizilla account. Links to both are located on my profile page on here.

On with the chapter!

Chapter Two: Enter the Twins

Ouran High School was buzzing. The girls were giggling as they gossiped among themselves. Even the boys were whispering together. One topic was on everyone's lips: new kid. It was a rare event indeed when Ouran received a new student partially through the year. The news was soon the biggest piece of gossip. They speculated what this new student must look like and who they were. They were either very wealthy or incredibly smart since they were transferring into class A and young for it was the first year class.

Haruhi sat at her desk trying to ignore the buzzing. Her book was open with a notebook beside it. She was hoping to get a small head start on the next lesson. Her duties for the Host Club along with her usual chores at home left her with little time for homework. She sighed. She really needed to talk to Tamaki and Kyoya about that. She needed more time for school work if she wanted to keep her scholarship status. She hoped that would be enough to convince them. It would be hard since her grades had never faltered to convince them she needed more time.

"Ohayo, Haruhi," the Hitachiin twins greeted as they took their seats on either side of her.

She fought the groan. It wasn't that she had anything against the twins. In fact, she really liked them. They were great friends. However, the moment they arrived her chance of extra study time flew straight out the window.

"Ohayo," she replied with a slight grumble.

"Grouchy today?" Hikaru teased.

"You know a good night's sleep would do you wonders," Kaoru laughed.

She rolled her eyes.

"I would get more sleep if I didn't have to stay up so late doing homework," she replied calmly.

"Do your homework earlier," they shrugged.

"I would if I wasn't so busy with club duties,"

They simply shrugged again.

"Have you heard the new rumor?" Hikaru asked.

Haruhi glanced over as she closed her book.

"That there's a new kid starting today?"

He nodded.

"Everyone's curious," Kaoru continued. "New kids are rare anyway, but to be placed in this class is even rarer. Whoever they are, they've caused quite a stir,"

"Is it really that big?"

"Yup," they replied.

"You two don't seem terribly concerned,"

They shrugged.

"Why would we be?"

The class was hushed shortly after by the teacher.

"Alright this is it!" Ari nearly squealed. "Our first class!"

Rena took a deep breath and smoothed her skirt yet again. She was nervous but did her best to smile for her twin. Arianna wasn't fooled in the least.

"Don't worry so much, honey. I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere," she smiled grabbing her sister's hand.

"I know. Thanks,"

Ari beamed intertwining her fingers with her sister's. They took a deep breath and knocked on the door. After a moment the teacher opened the door.

"May I help you?" The teacher asked looking over the girls.

"Yes. We were told this will be our class," Arianna replied with a smile.

"Ah so you must be the new students. Very well, come in,"

They walked in step into the classroom and turned to face the class.

"Class, please welcome our new students. Be kind and help them out. Girls, will you please introduce yourselves?"

"We are Rena and Arianna Sky," Rena said with a slight bow.

"We are very please to meet you," Ari continued following her sister's example.

"Please," they began in unison, clasping their free hands together in front of them. "Welcome us kindly to you school,"

They looked up at the class with the most innocent looks they could manage. If it were an anime, there would have been a light change to make them glow with hearts surrounding them. Many of the boys in the class felt their faces heat up and their hearts skip a beat. Even some of the girls were a little taken with how adorable and sweet the new girls were. There were, however, three people that caught their attention. Two red heads and a burnet were much different from the rest despite the uniforms. The two red heads were staring at them while the burnet was working on something in a notebook.

"Interesting," Ari whispered.

"Behave," Rena whispered back.

"Very good. If you could take a seat please, we can continue our lesson. There are some available in front of the Hitachiin boys,"

"Thank you very much," the girls smiled before taking their seat.

They were a little disappointed that there was an empty seat in between them, but they were still determined to make the best of it. Rena didn't even give the boy behind her another glance as she took her seat. She pulled out her notebook and kept her gaze between that and the teacher. She took accurate notes, but also had several side notes written the margarines that had nothing at all to do with class. They were personal notes. On occasion, she would glance over her sister who was just as focused. The only difference was that her twin had a novel open on her lap that her gaze kept shifting to every so often when she got bored. Rena giggled very softly to herself when she caught her sister reading. Luckily, neither of them were caught nor were they called on. The day seemed to fly by, much to Rena's surprise. Normally, the first day of school seemed to drag on forever, but for once it didn't.

"So you're the infamous new students," someone said as Rena repacked her school supplies.

She glanced back to see it was one of the red haired boys.

"Yup, that's us," she said giving him the best smile she could muster.

"We are the Sky twins, Arianna and Rena. If you can tell us apart, you win a kiss," Arianna said as she perched herself on her twin's desk.

"Nee-chan how could you?" Rena replied, flushing bright red. "I can't believe you would promise such a thing without consulting me,"

She turned away from her sister, looking extremely hurt.

"Oh Imooto-chan!" Ari cried pulling her sister into a tight hug. "You're so adorable! I simply couldn't resist. Besides, I would never make you do something you didn't consent to. I love you too much to put you through such torture. Come now, give me a smile,"

Rena sighed and forced a smile for her sister.

"There, now that's better. You're much prettier when you smile. Just like Rascal Flatts said in My wish, 'when it's cold outside show the world the warmth of your smile'. Your smile always makes me feel better, so, please, don't hide it behind tears,"

"Wow," the burnet said. "I can't believe there is a female version of Hikaru and Kaoru,"

"Who?" The girls asked in unison.

"Us," the red head boys replied in unison.

"I'm Hikaru," one introduced. "He's Kaoru,"

They stared at each other for a moment.

"So you're twins as well?" Ari asked keeping her arms around her sister's shoulders.

"Isn't it obvious?" Kaoru replied.

"My bet is that you two like to play up the brotherly love aspect," Rena said bluntly. "After all, it seems you have quite the fan club and many girls would just die having that kind of brotherly love being played out before them…especially the yaoi fans,"

"How could you tell?" Hikaru asked with a slight annoyance.

"We may be new, but we're not stupid," the Sky twins replied in unison.

"We have ears and we use them," Ari said with a smile.

"We just happened to pass a few girls on our way in gushing about the twins in a particular club. I didn't quite catch the names, but Hikaru and Kaoru sound about right,"

"So, what's the deal with you two?" Hikaru asked.

They smiled an identical smile.

"We're just a set of twins that finally get to attend a Japanese school. We hope you won't do anything to make our experience…unpleasant," they replied.

There was another brief silence.

"For some reason, the remind me a little of Kyoya," Haruhi thought, but shook the thought from her head.

There was no way these two new girls could be that menacing.

"Hey, do you think you guys could give us some directions?" Arianna asked.

"Hm? Sure. What do you need directions for?" The burnet asked.

"Well, since we're new here we haven't quite learned where everything is yet," Ari began. "And we really don't feel like going home so we thought we could do some practicing,"

"Practicing?"

"Yes, practicing. So could please point us in the direction of a music room?"

"Music room?" The Hitachiin twins asked, a smile twisting on their faces.

"Yes, a music room. Can we get directions?" Ari pressed.

"Why give directions when we can escort you ourselves?" Hikaru twins asked.

"You really don't have to do that," Rena replied quickly. "Directions are enough,"

"We insist," they replied in unison.

The twin girls glanced at each other.

"Alright then. Please, lead the way," Rena said standing up.

"This way," Hikaru said taking her hand.

Kaoru took a hold of Arianna's and led them out of the room.

"They wouldn't," Haruhi thought as she left the classroom following them.

She watched as they boys led the new girls down the hall, using the familiar path she had often used to get to Music room 3. "Would they? Oh no, those girls are going to be in for the shock of their life!"

A/N:

And there is chapter two! Yay! Reviews are nice and give me the strength to keep going. Again, if I don't get enough response, this story may just die. I would like to receive two more reviews before I update. The next chapter the Sky twins will meet the infamous Host Club. Are they truly in for the shock of their lives as Haruhi predicted? Well, you'll have to read and find out. Anyway, review, message, or take the poll on my quizilla (found on my profile page). I like hearing from people. ^_^ Ja ne!
