Hello, hello, you people crazy enough to read my work! So, I've realized that I'm a multi-shipping whore when it comes to Haruhi, but this is my favorite. Maybe because I love the twins. Anyways, I'm sure you'd like me to get to the story now so here we go. OH AND I don't own Ouran High School Host Club, or any of its wonderful characters.
(Haruhi's POV)
As I walked into mine and my dad's little apartment, I set my bag down and walked into the kitchen to get an idea of what I needed to buy at the store. I decided I'd do my homework when I got back. I compiled a list, then went to change into something other than my uniform. Once I had some jeans, and a random shirt on, I put the list, my wallet, and the cell phone that Hikaru and Kaoru had given me in my pocket. I headed out the door and to the store.
(Hikaru's POV)
As we pulled up to our house, I hurriedly pushed open the door and ran to the house, determined to not let Kaoru embarrass me more than I already was. But he was just as fast and caught up easily. "Why are you running, Hikaru?" I ignored his question, opened the door, and walked inside. I hurried up into our bedroom and set my bag down. Kaoru was close behind me.
"I'm going to take a shower." I said. I needed to clear my head.
"Okay. Don't think about Haruhi too much while you're in there." Kaoru said as he smirked at me. I shot him a scowl and walked into the bathroom. I began to undress and then I hopped in the shower.
(Haruhi's POV)
I grabbed items that were on the list quickly. Although I was focused on that, my mind kept drifting back to Hikaru and my jealousy. Why can't I focus on anything other than Hikaru? And why do I feel jealous when the twins do their act in Host Club? I shook my head and grabbed the last few items on the list. Then I payed for them and hurried home.
When I got home, I quickly put some dinner on to cook and grabbed my homework, in hopes to get my mind off Hikaru. To no avail though. I finished dinner and put it in the fridge with a note for my dad. Then I headed out the door for a walk to clear my head.
(Hikaru's POV)
I got out of the shower and began to dry off. I wrapped the towel around me and headed back to the bedroom. Kaoru was lying on the bed, eyes closed, and listening to music. I quickly pulled on some casual clothes and walked back out of the room before Kaoru could notice me. I needed to go for a walk and clear my head. Our maid came up to me and asked if I needed anything. "I'm fine." I said as a brushed past them. I just need to be alone for now. I walked out the door and headed down to the road. I absentmindedly wandered around and found myself outside the commoner's market. I smiled, thinking of Haruhi shopping. I sat down on a bench outside to listen to some music for a little bit. I put my headphones on and turned on some music. As I laid my head back, I closed my eyes and relaxed. I A love song came on, and I thought of Haruhi again and smiled. Maybe I do love her. Then I frowned. But what are the chances she'd love me? I don't even know if she could feel love. Lost in my thoughts, I barely noticed as someone sat down next to me, not bothering to look at them. Then I heard a voice, barely, but it was familiar. My eyes shot open and there was Haruhi, sitting next to me. I took my headphones off quickly and asked, "What?"
She giggled. I love that laugh. "I said 'Hello, Hikaru. Odd to see you here... alone.'"
"Oh." I said, and looked down at my hands. "Yeah, I've had a lot on my mind and went for a walk."
"And ended up outside the commoner's market?" She asked in surprise.
"Yeah..." My voice trailed off, as I debated confessing how I felt to her. I decided against it, I didn't want to get rejected...
(Haruhi's POV)
Say something you idiot! I just continued to look at Hikaru. There must be some serious stuff going on inside his head for him to be here without Kaoru. "Hikaru?" I started.
"Hmm?" he replied, looking back at me.
"I.. umm.." I had been planning to tell him about my jealousy, even though I still didn't know why I felt it. But for some reason I couldn't seem to form words. So I just stared into his eyes. Huh. His eyes are kind of a pretty color. WHAT? What did I just think? This is my friend, JUST my friend, Hikaru. The one that acts like he's in love with his brother, that pulls pranks all the time.
"What is it Haruhi?" Hikaru asked, which snapped back to the situation.
"Oh, it's nothing... Uh. Nevermind." I turned away, feeling my face get hot.
(Hikaru's POV)
Is she... blushing? What could make Haruhi blush? As far as I knew, she'd never done anything embarrassing. "Okay." I said. She looked back at me, and my heart beat a little bit faster. "Well, do you want to walk with me?" I asked.
She brightened up again, "Sure!" I stood up, stretched, then gave her my hand to help her up. She looked away again, blushing. Odd.. Oh well. Girls.. As we walked, we kept holding hands. Neither of us protested. It started to get dark, so I walked Haruhi home. "Thanks for the walk, Hikaru!" She hugged me, and after the shock went away, I hugged her back. I didn't want to let her go, and she didn't seem to want to either. After a few minutes, we reluctantly pulled away, and she walked inside. "I'll see you at school" she said as she shut the door.
"See ya." I said, mostly to myself, as the door was already shut. I stayed there at the door for a couple more minutes, then began to walk home.
Okay. Jeez, that's like one of my longest chapters ever. Welp, I hope you liked it. Please leave a review, let me know what you think. I love feedback. So... ONTO WRITING ON ANOTHER STORY. Baiii
