Kaoru woke up his heart pounding. He was breathing hard and sweating, it felt like he had been running for a very long time. When he finally slowed his heartbeat he looked around. He was on the floor. He looked up at his twin brother who was still fast asleep. Kaoru guessed that Hikaru had kicked him out of the bed during the night, which was odd. Hikaru never kicked Kaoru out of the bed before, except for when they stayed at the commoners hotel Haruhi was working at, but that was because it was a singular bed. Hikaru had never kicked him off their bed. Kaoru looked at the time, it was only three in the morning and they had school in a few hours, he sighed and stood up. "Well I'm not going to be falling back to sleep now," he mumbled to himself and went to go take a shower.

Kaoru went back into his and his brothers' bedroom and looked at the time again. Only half an hour had past. He was already fully dressed and ready for school, and didn't know what to do for the rest of the time. It wasn't that he didn't want to go back to sleep, it was just that Hikaru was taking up most of the bed, and he didn't want to risk having another dream like the one he just had. He sat down on one of the chairs they had in their room that was off to the side. How could I dream something like that? How could I think about Hikaru that way? We're brothers, twins! Kaoru thought this to himself as he watched Hikaru sleep. What was that dream supposed to mean anyways? What was Hikaru trying to say? What did I want him to say? Why did he leave me? Kaoru sighed and picked up a handheld game that was on the floor in front of the chair. They had these games all over the house, and never knew what game was in them until they turned it on. Kaoru turned on the game and found it was one of the more fun ones they had and he started to play.

After a few hours, light started to come through the window of the bedroom. Hikaru moved in the bed, and closed his eyes tighter because of the light hitting his face. After a few seconds a maid came into the room. "Master Hitachiin, it's time to get up. You'll be late for school," she told him. Hikaru let out a sigh and sat up.

"Where's Kaoru?" he asked finally noticing his twin wasn't there.

"The other master is already up," the maid told him as he got up and she made the bed. Hikaru noticed Kaoru sitting on a chair playing one of their games and went over to him.

"Since when do you get up early?" Hikaru asked leaning over the back of the chair and Kaoru's shoulder watching him play the game. Kaoru put the game on pause and looked at his brother.

"Since you kicked me off the bed last night," he told him.

"Did I really?" Hikaru asked. "I don't remember doing that."

"That's because you were asleep when you did it," Kaoru told him with a sighed. "I've been up since three." Hikaru frowned and went a little closer to his brothers' face looking into his eyes.

"I'm sorry," he said. Kaoru blushed a little and turned away to hide it.

"Just don't do it again," Kaoru tried to say like he was angry, but it came out more quiet and shy. Hikaru smirked and backed away from Kaoru.

"Well I'll be ready soon," he said disappearing into the bathroom.

A few minutes later Hikaru came out of the bathroom and saw Kaoru still playing their game. "Hey Kaoru," he said a little annoyed. Kaoru turned off the game and looked over at him.

"What?" he asked with a sigh. A blush went across Kaoru's face. His older twin was in just a towel and had water dripping off of him.

"Do you know where my uniform is?" Hikaru asked looking around. "I can't find it."

"Uh, it's over there," Kaoru said pointing at their bed not taking his eyes off his twin. "The maid just laid it out."

"Oh, thanks," Hikaru said going over to the bed. Kaoru watched him walk over to it and pick up the uniform. Then he turned to him. "What are you staring at me for?" Hikaru asked. Kaoru turned away his heart was beating fast now.

"I um," he said trying to slow his heart down again. If Hikaru hadn't notice him staring at him, he probably wouldn't have been able to control himself and would have watched him get dress.

Just then another maid came into the room. Hikaru and Kaoru turned to her. "Your breakfast is done masters," she said with a smile.

"Yeah, we'll be down soon," Hikaru told her. The maid nodded and left the room. Hikaru turned back to Kaoru who was still trying to clam himself. "You can go, I'll finish changing and then come," he told him. Kaoru nodded thinking that this would be a good idea, and hurried out of the room.

He got downstairs and sat at the table. What's happening to me? I couldn't stop staring at him! He's my brother! My twin brother at that! I can't be acting like this, or thinking about him the way I do! It's just not right! Kaoru rested his elbows on the table and put his face in his hands. He didn't know what was going on with him lately. He'd been thinking about his brother in ways he shouldn't be, and his dreams had been getting weirder and weirder every night. He didn't know what was causing it, but he knew it had to stop. He couldn't think about Hikaru like that anymore. They were brothers and he should be thinking of him as a brother, and nothing else.

Hikaru came down a few minutes later. "Hey, it's rude to put your elbows on the table," Hikaru said jokingly as he walked by and knocked Kaoru's arms down.

"I'm just tired," Kaoru told him looking up. Hikaru was now sitting across the table from him.

"Well then why didn't you go back to sleep?" Hikaru asked grabbing some toast and eggs to put on his plate.

"Because you were taking up the whole bed," Kaoru told him, and this time it actually sounded like he was angry. Hikaru stuffed some bacon into his mouth and shrugged. Kaoru took a piece of toast, he wasn't too hungry.

"You could have pushed me over, or just lay on top of me, or something," Hikaru told him when he had finished chewing and swallowing. Kaoru's eyes went wide and he almost spit out his milk as some images passed through his mind and his heart started to pound.

"N-No, that wouldn't have been nice," he told him. Hikaru gave him a confused look.

"Are you ok, you've been acting funny this morning," he said. Kaoru shook the images from his head.

"Y-Yeah, I'm fine," he said taking a deep breath and then finishing his milk. "Well we should get going, or we'll be late for school."

"But I'm not done yet," Hikaru told him. Kaoru didn't pay attention to what his older brother said. He just headed for the front door. Hikaru sighed, finished his bacon, and took a piece of toast to eat on the way.
