"Thank you for coming!" Tamaki blows a kiss to the last customer leaving. Then he closes the music room doors.
"What a busy day." Haruhi stretches and relaxes onto one of the couches.
Hikaru moves to sit next to Haruhi. "Certainly was." Hikaru pulls his girlfriend to him so shes lying her head on his chest.
Kyouya is busy away on his laptop.
Hunny and Mori are cleaning up the plates at their table.
I am sitting by the window in thought. Tired from entertaining annoying girls.
My names Kaoru. I am Hikaru's twin brother, I am also younger by a few seconds.
"Hey Kaoru!" My brother calls from his seat with his girlfriend. "Everything alright?"
"Hm? Oh yeah fine just thinking!" I call back.
He looks worried but the look in my eyes tells him to let it go… for now…
I get up and walk to the doors. "Go out with your girlfriend Hikaru. I want to walk home today and you really should be with her." I wave and leave the room.
I head down the empty hallway and out the front doors, a clear path to the gates from here.
Walking to the gate and leaving the school behind me as I begin my walk home. Its really a nice day to be out walking.
Eye's….. I feel eyes on my back as I continue to walk.
I glance over my shoulder, wondering who is following me.
What I see makes me pick up my pace.
Three of the bullies that love to torment me are following me.
"Hey!" One of them shouts to me as I start to run.
I run into an alleyway and screech to a stop as I come to a dead end.
"Ha! Nowhere to run!" The chuckles come from behind me.
I spin around and press my back against the brick wall. My heart pounding in my head.
"Listen to me you freak." The leader growls as his hand shoots to my neck. "You will do what we tell you and let us do what we want. Got it?" He growls.
I nod softly, knowing better than to struggle against them.
"Good." He lets go of my neck and shifts his bag.
WHACK!
My cheek stings as his bag connects with my cheek.
He swung his bag into my face!
"Aww! Did I hurt your pwetty wittle face." He starts talking to me as if I am some sort of little kid.
"Go kill yourself." I mumble as I hold my hand to my stinging cheek.
His eyes suddenly become blurry and his voice almost sounds distance. "Alright." He turns and walks right over towards the busy street.
"Wait! Where are you going!" His two sidekicks call after him.
Their leader throws himself in front of a speeding truck, killing himself.
The two sidekicks gasp in horror, they look at me in horror then run off.
I am frozen in fear. Did I do that! Was it really my fault! What happened!
Tearing myself out of my paralyzed trance I run off straight to home.
I jolt from the front door of the mansion straight to my room, trying not to think about anyone, in case I kill them.
Slamming the door I slide down it, with a sigh.
I cover my eyes with my hands. "This can't be happening to me." I start to cry. "I killed someone." I barely manage to get the words out of my mouth.
Out of no where I feel drawn to the window, looking up I see a potted plant that's dying and withering.
I get up and go over to the plant. I can't remember what kind of plant this is but it has flowers and vines.
"Why am I drawn to this plant?" I sigh in frustration and hating myself.
I look out the window for a few seconds then I look back to the plant.
I reach out and gently brush my fingertips against one of the ends of one of the vines. Doing this, I feel a spark and the plant suddenly becomes green and healthy again, starting from where I had touched it.
"What the…." I shake softly. "What's going on."
Hikaru's P.O.V.
I get home when the sun is setting, arriving in the limo after dropping off Haruhi.
Walking inside I am greeted by the maids but I pay them no mind.
I walk straight to me and Kaoru's room.
Opening the door I peek inside to see if Kaoru is up.
He's curled up in bed, seems like hes asleep.
I wont wake him.
Walking into the room, I try to be as silent as I can. I look to the window, only to see the plant that I had failed to take care of and was dying…. Is suddenly alive and healthy again.
"How in the world…" I whisper in shock.
I had found some seeds out in the garden one day and so I planted them and attempted to take care of them. I'm no good at it and within a week after sprouting flower buds, it began to die.
This is quite the shock and I have no idea how it happened. Either way I'll keep trying to take care of it…. Maybe I did something that made it grow healthy again.
I change out of my school uniform and into some pyjamas.
Tomorrows the weekend but after our date, Haruhi helped me with my homework so it's done.
I crawl into my bed and glance once more at my brother.
Why do I feel like there is a connection between the plant and Kaoru?
