Walk on the Alley

He wished he knew...he wished he knew why he was not sleeping yet. He was supposed to be asleep but no, he was staring at his brother's neck. Why would he do that? Why would he brush his fingertips softly against Kaoru's skin? He had absolutely no idea.

But he felt like he needed to do that, he never took such a close look before, they slept together but for some odd reason it seemed that tonight's hug was tighter, more intimate; though Hikaru couldn't quite figure out why.

Kaoru smelled of roses – his new liquid soap – and a scent that was just his. Something he and Hikaru apparently did not share. It was so unique and so…his.

Hikaru got so worried with his brother today that right now he just wanted to hold him and never let go, so he would never worry again.

He slowly moved his head so he was facing Kaoru; he was already asleep like Hikaru expected him to be. He slowly brushed his fingers through Kaoru's cheeks, to his eyes, and to his mouth…so soft. His fingertips continued there and Hikaru found himself blushing.

Though they played the brotherly love everything was just an act. Nothing so forbidden and sinful had ever happened between them and Hikaru honestly thought it was crazy for brothers to love in such way.

But then why was he touching and staring at Kaoru's parted lips? Why was he obsessed with Kaoru's neck just a minute ago? He shook his head, this was crazy. It is not like he loves his brother in that way. Impossible…right?

He removed his fingers from Kaoru's lips and rest his head on the crook of Kaoru's neck again; for now he would sleep with his brother on his strong hold and think about things later. He didn't like to think or wonder about things anyway. He was the practical one.

As soon as Hikaru's breath evened out two yellow orbs opened themselves and stared into the wall. A thousand thoughts went through Kaoru's mind and he had no idea which one of them was the right one.

Kaoru woke up earlier than Hikaru, if he really wanted to go to school alone than he would have to wake up early so he would have enough time to walk his way to school.

He slowly detached himself from his brother's arms – it was a struggle for he wished he could stay like that forever – and went to take his morning shower.

He use to take a shower with Hikaru; not on the same bathtub but in the same bathroom, they used to make bubble fights and wet the whole place – he chuckled at the memory – he missed spending time with Hikaru. But if Hikaru wanted to spend time with Haruhi and that made him happy then Kaoru would let him.

He got dressed very quietly so he would not wake up Hikaru and before leaving he slowly directed himself to the bed, to give Hikaru a peck on the cheek as goodbye.

But before he could get out of the bed he was pushed back, his brother's weight above him, his breathing a thousand times quicker and he was actually blushing.

"Where do you think you are going?" His brother whispered in his ear and Kaoru closed his eyes, this was just too much for him. He couldn't move, or talk, or even blink. "What is so fun about walking alone to school?" Hikaru asked in a winy voice, face still hidden in the midst of Kaoru's hair. Kaoru smiled softly and spoke near his ear.

"What is so fun about driving Haruhi to school every morning?" That seemed to cause an effect on Hikaru, because he in one quick motion got off his brother looking at him with a surprised expression and his mouth was hanging open.

Kaoru smiled, got off the bed and left the room leaving a very confused Hikaru sitting in their bed, staring at the spot where Kaoru was.

Kaoru walked peacefully out of the house, he knew Hikaru was still clueless about his feelings for Haruhi and that the question Kaoru asked scared him.

What could he do anyway? It was a simple question and he was just trying to open Hikaru's eyes, even though it hurt for him to do so.

But he decided he would move on right? So that was what he was doing right now. He walked on the same way back to school and the same cafes were there, only that now they were pretty empty; since Kaoru didn't have breakfast he got into one to buy a bagel or something.

It is not like he was avoiding Hikaru…he was just using the time that Hikaru gave him, the time he spent with Haruhi. Kaoru would not rotten just because his brother decided to completely ignore him…or at least he would try not to.

He got his bagel and was about to leave the store but when he turned around he found identical amber orbs staring into his.

"Hi-Hikaru…?" He said a bit scared by the angry expression on Hikaru's face. Hikaru said nothing, he just grabbed Kaoru's free hand and left the store, carrying Kaoru with him.

"I don't know why you are doing this Kaoru! I don't know if it is because I am driving Haruhi to school but if it is you should tell me!" He said and Kaoru rolled his eyes chuckling a bit at his brother's denseness. "If it is not and you are not going to tell me then the least I can do is walk with you. Maybe I will know why you are acting strange." He said and continued walking quickly looking for a clue everywhere, like they were trying to figure out a crime or something.

"Hikaru stop with the nonsense I just feel like walking and seeing the rest of the world instead of pretending that the Host Club is all there is!" Oh-ho…he said too much. Hikaru turned to him, furious looking and let go of his hand.

"Again with you; you, you, you that is all I have been hearing lately! Can you stop being so selfish and let someone else into your new world Kaoru?" He yelled at his brother and it seemed like that woke up something very very bad inside of Kaoru.

"Oh right I am the selfish one! I am the one who isn't letting anyone in my new world…I am not fighting with you Hikaru, think whatever you want." He said and continued his way to school – which thank God was getting closer. Hikaru followed him.

"What is that supposed to mean?! And what do you call this?! A peaceful discussion?!" Hikaru screamed at him with all of his lungs, the school and the students getting closer by the second, listening to their argument.

"No I call it a finished discussion!" He yelled back and rushed his way to school, ignoring everyone around him trying to find a place to hide. This time, no one followed.

Kaoru hid behind a tree taking deep breaths. He didn't understand why his brother was this way. He looked back trying to find his twin and he did. He was talking with Haruhi who seemed to be calming him down; a hand on his arm.

Hikaru had stopped looking for Kaoru and was just talking with Haruhi, probably explaining to her what had happened.

Kaoru just went inside of the school going to his class. He knew this would happen but it hurt anyway. He swallowed the pain and tried to convince himself that this was for Hikaru's sake. That he would move on and finally see the feelings he has for Haruhi.

If only he could believe his own thoughts.

The day was horrible. Haruhi tried to calm him down and talk to Kaoru but Kaoru seemed to push her away and avoid her like a plague. He did the same to Hikaru; who was getting pretty annoyed by the way he was being treated.

But Kaoru couldn't run and hide forever, the Host Club was about to start and they would have to face each other and solve their problems.

But to Hikaru's surprise, Kaoru wasn't there, he talked to his driver and he said his younger brother had gone home early, walking alone again.

Hikaru was mad out of his mind but if he left now Kyouya would kill both him and Kaoru. So he stayed for their lives' sake.

He was pretty much ignoring the fangirls and they were looking a bit scared and really sad. He wished he know why.

"Hikaru-kun…why isn't Kaoru here?" One of them asked. He just looked at her and shrugged.

"He went home early." Hikaru said like it didn't matter, but everyone knew, it did matter, a whole lot.

"Maybe he went to the ice cream parlor again. I saw him there yesterday." One of them said and Hikaru started to listen more carefully without looking at them.

"Or he went to that small café near the alley." The other girl said. Some other fan made a funny noise with a sarcastic tone.

"Impossible. People only go there if they have someone to meet. You know what they do in that alley Mika-chan." The girl said and Hikaru saw from the corner of his eyes the other girls blushing.

"You don't actually think he went there to meet someone right?" another one whispered so Hikaru wouldn't hear but he did anyway. He looked at them with a furious expression and before Kyouya could stop him he was out of the Third Music room.

So Kaoru left early…way early. He could not face Hikaru now and would not face him and act with him after the major fight they had the previous day. He would walk home again and perhaps stop at the parlor again. Maybe ice cream would help…again.

He entered the small parlor choosing a flavor this time but before he could choose someone tapped his shoulder.

He turned to look and found out it was just a girl from his school. He recognized her; it was one of their costumers. Her black hair was loose a few curls forming on the ends, her black eyes were sparkling and she was smiling broadly at Kaoru.

"Hum…I know you must be busy Kaoru-kun but I was wondering if maybe you wanted to join n me and my friends? We are just hanging out at the café nearby." She asked and he thought for a while. He needed a reason to forget Hikaru. There was no little girl with an inspiring flower today so why not?

"Sure." He said and the girl got his sleeve and dragged him out of the parlor, walking quickly trough the streets talking happily with Kaoru about her friends.

They arrived and some of her friends pulled a chair for him as she introduced them to Kaoru, he just smiled as everyone greeted him.

He was happy, having the nicest time with everyone. They bought him a Coke and a hot-dog that was supposedly the best they ever ate.

He talked and laughed and ate, and just acted normal. For about one hour he was nothing but another teenager having a good time with friends. But he should have remembered he was not what people call normal.

And he did remember that on the moment his brother appeared out of nowhere and stared at him and the girl at his side. His gaze burnt holes through Kaoru, like he was doing something forbidden.

The more he tried to move and talk, the less he could. The others just stared at both of them as Hikaru looked like spanking Kaoru and Kaoru looked like bursting into tears.

They all waited and time never seemed to go by slower than in that very moment.
