I know you've been through tough times
Kicked around, thrown to the ground
But you've always been the strong one
So don't tell me that nobody gets you

A/N: This chapter will be a mixture of Kaoru's POV, Mori's POV and the oh so omniscient one up there (fine, I'm lying. It's just me.). To Thunderclapped: Mori/Kaoru is cute okay! Twincest is fine, but these two are so cute together (:

-Kaoru's POV-

My heart pounded like crazy. I swore I was going to die. Me? Paired with Mori? Oh my god. You've got to be kidding. I'm paired with the guy of my dreams! Yeah, I know I always play the 'Forbidden Love' with Hikaru, but truth be told, only Mori has a place in my heart. Just look: he's handsome, hunky and definitely mysterious. I really want to know more about him, but I'm afraid I'll sound too…well, too inquisitive. That'll definitely set of a series of questions, seeing that everyone thinks that I don't bend that way. I just hope this will work out well…

-II's POV (II Ira Invidia)-

Mori, though quiet, could clearly see that Kaoru wasn't himself. He wasn't one to ask questions, but this piqued his interest to no end. He always found the Hitachiin twins interesting, but of the two, he found the younger twin more fascinating. He was quieter, definitely, but he didn't really seem interested in the girls that came to the Host Club. Not that he himself was, anyway. He didn't really enjoy the attention. He came only because Hunny did. He would be much more content to be at the kendo club, training. This could turn out to be quite an interesting experience.

-Kaoru's POV-

So, the Host Club opened its operations. We started off pretty fine, in my opinion. The girls were intrigued with the new pairings, as Kyouya-senpai has predicted. Well, it went fine, until Hikaru couldn't stand it anymore. I mean, I know he loves Haruhi, but he simply just can't resist performing the 'Forbidden Love' act. Before I knew it, I was grabbed from my chair, and our 'Forbidden Love' act began once again.

(A/N: For convenience sake, I'll just reduce this to the play-like instructions. It'll also be easier to read. Yay! (: )

Hikaru: Kaoru! (Hugs Kaoru tightly) I'm sorry for letting you be alone for so long!

Kaoru: (Blushes) Hikaru! Don't do that! I was fine with Mori-senpai…

Hikaru: Don't worry. From now on, I'll never leave you again.

Kaoru: (Blushes even redder) Really?

Hikaru: (Brings Kaoru's face to kissing distance) Really.

(A/N: We'll revert back now, since it's going to get interesting at this point...I hope to you it will, because it did for me! (: )

-Kaoru's POV-

I couldn't hold it in any further. I know it's only meant to be an act, but Hikaru's lips are so full, so perfect, so…tempting. I leaned in, knowing full well this should never happen, but still, I succumbed to lust, and in my mind's eye thinking that Hikaru was Mori-senpai, I kissed Hikaru…on the lips.

-II's POV-

The waves of 'MOE' screams by the fangirls suddenly died down. A deathly silence soon followed. Hikaru's eyes almost bulged out of their original position as he jumped back. His face turned a pale white. Everyone else turned to look at the commotion, all except Mori. Mori didn't look at the commotion, and that made Kaoru's heart ache. 'Why? Why didn't he look? Perhaps he despised me, or perhaps he doesn't want to see me, this freak, doing such an abnormal thing?' Kaoru's mind raced as a million thoughts bombarded him from almost every side.

-Kaoru's POV-

I felt sick. I felt abnormal. I felt horrible. I felt…like I betrayed Mori's heart, the heart I never got to touch. The heart that was meant to be mine, yet never was. I did the only thing I knew what I should, and can do: I ran.

I ran.

Ran.

Ran.

Ran. I ran and ran until I exhausted all my energy. I did not know where I was. I didn't want to know where I was. I just curled up into a ball, and let the tears that sprang forth from my eyes fall.

-Mori's POV-

I didn't know what was going on, for I didn't look. But from what I could gather just by listening, I knew something had happened. I turned to look at Hunny, but his eyes were intently locked at the commotion. I didn't wish to know what was happening. I was never one for gossip.

But when I saw Kaoru run out of the Host Club, I knew something went wrong. Since he was my partner now, I have an obligation to know what was going on. It's an obligation, not being nosey.

But when Kaoru ran out of the room, I swore I saw the faintest of tears at the corners of his eyes. Something must be up.

I got up, and walked out of the room…

In search of Kaoru.

Ira: Yay! So that's Chappy 2! Grinz I'm happy and high because my exams are over! (: BUT…(face turns black) MORI-SENPAI! WHY DIDN'T YOU LET ME HAVE THE LAST SAY?!

Mori: …

Ira: Fine…I don't own Ouran, by the way (I kinda forgot to do that). Anyway, please review! (face turns black again) Right senpai?

Mori: …Ah.

Ira: Review please! (:
