Chapter 3
General POV
The next morning, the Sohma twins woke up to the annoying voice of their over enthusiastic maid, Yuki. " Miss Sakura, Miss Hinata," she cooed. " WAKE UP BEFORE I GET THE BUCKET!!!" The last part she yelled. As soon as the girls heard her mention the bucket, they jumped out of their beds and hurried to get into the bathroom. You see, whenever the girls refuse to get up, Yuki dumps a freezing bucket of water on each of them. " That was a close call Hinata." Sakura said as she brushed her waist long black hair. " It was Sakura. Yuki almost used the bucket." Both girls shuddered. The girls went back into their bedroom. Sakura wore a pair of jean short-shorts, a light blue low V-neck, short-sleeved shirt with a white cammy under it. She also wore a pair of flip-flops. Hinata was wearing the same thing except her shirt was a light yellow. As they packed their bags, Sakura's phone vibrated. It was Kaoru. " Hey Kaoru. Yeah, okay, we'll be down in a bit, bye." Sakura hung up her phone. " Hinata, we have to go. The twins are outside." Sakura said as she put her hair up in a ponytail. She clipped her bangs back and out of her gray eyes. Hinata had her hair in the same fashion. The girls ran down the stairs and in to the Hitachiins limo.
Sakura's POV
" Your late." Hikaru and Kaoru said in unison. Hinata and I rolled our eyes. The rest of the ride was pretty quiet. It was a comfortable silence though. I listened to my ipod and fell asleep.
Kaoru's POV
I looked over to Sakura and she was asleep. I couldn't help but smile. Suddenly, she shifted in her sleep. " Crap! Crap! What do I do! Her head is on my shoulder! Wow, she looks cute when she's asleep. WAIT!! HOLD THE PHONE!!! DID I REALLY JUST SAY THAT!" I freaked out. Hinata rolled her eyes while Hikaru snickered. Some brother he is. A few minutes later, we arrived at Kyouya sempai's beach house. The rest of the Host Club was already there and went to the beach. I gently shook Sakura a wake and she drowsily opened her eyes and got out of the car. We all walked into the house and were escorted to our rooms. We were told to change into our swimsuits.
Sakura's POV
Once Hinata and I were settled in, we changed into our swimsuits. Mine was a light green halter-top bikini. Hinata's was the same except it was orange. Once we were changed, we headed to the beach.
Once we got there we saw a couple of girls and a few boys. Hinata and I were sort of confused. We understood why there were girls there, it was a host club after all, but why were there boys? I was pulled out of my thoughts when Hunny sempai pounced on me. " Hi Saki-chan!!! Wanna go and build a sand castle???" He asked me while flowers danced around his head. Okay, to be honest I thought that was pretty cool. I mean, who else has flowers follow them around? " Not right now Hunny sempai, we have to find Hikaru and Kaoru. How about later?" That answer seemed to satisfy him because he then happily bounced away. " I really need to ask him where he got those flowers!" I told Hinata as we walked. " They are SO cool." Hinata rolled her eyes at how easily entertained I was. The next thing I knew, we were soaking wet. As it turns out, Hikaru and Kaoru got bored and decided to dump water on me and my twin. " YOU GUYS ARE SOOOOO DEAD!" Hinata and I screamed as we chased them. Hinata went after Hikaru while I jumped on, tackled, and pinned Kaoru to the ground. I magically pulled out a bucket of water and dumped it on him while laughing like a maniac. He started to tickle me like crazy so he could get back at me for dumping water on him. Screaming, I ran away as he chased me. Once we were done, we went over to the drink area and were met by a laughing Hinata and a sulking, dripping wet Hikaru. Kaoru and I started to crack up and we laughed even harder when Hikaru sent us a death glare.
Mystery persons POV
" Hey look over there." I said as I pointed to two beautiful girl twins, each with long black hair and gray eyes. " One for each of us." I said to my friend. " Yeah" He replied. We waited until they went to the top of a cliff with two other girls.
Sakura's POV
"Sakura lets go!!!" Akira, a girl from Ouran, said as we climbed the cliff. I REALLY didn't want to climb the stupid cliff. Its not that I'm lazy, I just wanted to hang with Kaoru and Hikaru. I mean Hinata and I haven't seen them in awhile. So meh. " I'm coming Akira. I'm coming." I said in a bored tone that I haven't used since middle school. Once we reached the top, though, all the walking was worth it. The sun was just setting over the crystal clear ocean. It really was beautiful. As we talked, a pair of unknown boys came up to us. " Hey. I'm Hiro." He said. We could smell the alcohol on his breath. The other boy didn't talk. He looked almost evil. Hinata and I shared a look that meant ' I don't think Kyouya sempai invited them'. The boys were dressed in tacky matching Hawaiian shirts and ripped cargo pants. Hiro walked up to the girls and said, " Listen, I think you should leave. Now." The girls ran off, a frightened look on their faces. Hiro and his friend walked closer to me and Hinata. All I could think was how happy I was that I knew karate.
*MEAN WHILE BACK WITH THE HOST CLUB*
Kaoru's POV
" Hikaru, Kaoru!!!!" Akira yelled as she ran towards us. She was rambling on about something so fast that we could only pick out a few words. Sakura, Hinata, scary boys, danger, cliff, alone. That was all we could understand and all we needed to panic. We ran towards the cliff as fast as we could. We knew that the host club would be there soon as well. Once we reached the top, we saw that Hinata had managed to get caught. A boy had her arms held behind her back. She saw us and yelled at us to help Sakura. She was being held over the edge of the cliff. The boy holding her was covered in cuts, scratches, and bruises. Suddenly, he dropped Sakura. " Crap! Sakura can't swim!!!" Hinata yelled. Hikaru started to beat the crap out of the guy while I jumped into the water after Sakura.
Sakura's POV
It was like a dream, not real. I let my guard down and he smacked me. I was kind of shocked. He picked me up and threw me off the cliff. It was like I was flying, it would've been really cool if I weren't so scared. I heard screams from above me. It sounded like Hinata. I hit the water with a splash. I was mentally kicking myself for not learning how to swim. Being the idiot I am, I opened my mouth to sigh but started choking on salty, warm water. I closed my eyes for a bit. The truth is, I was scared. When I opened my eyes, I saw Kaoru. At first I thought I was dreaming, or dead. I REALLY hope I'm not dead. The next thing I know, Kaoru is carrying me onto the beach and putting me down next to Hinata. I gave her a quick hug and told her that I was okay. I looked over to Kaoru and he looked kind of mad. I tilted my head in confusion and asked him what was wrong. He looked at me like I was crazy. " What were you thinking? That guy could have really hurt you! And you could have drowned!" He said. He sounded angry. I stared at him wide eyed before I answered. Now I was getting angry. " So? He didn't hurt me and I didn't drown!" I retorted. " So what does it matter? You weren't the one in trouble. So what's the big deal?" He glared at me. " Fine, whatever. If you don't care then neither do I." He yelled at me. I was shocked as he walked away. I have never seen Kaoru this mad. Hikaru quickly followed after. Hunny sempai walked up to me, all of the flowers were gone. " Sakura, we were all very worried about you." He said in a grown up, serious voice. " I think you should apologize to everyone, especially Kaoru." I simply nodded my head. We all silently walked back to the house. Once we got back, Hinata and I went into our rooms to change for dinner. I took a shower and put on a white spaghetti strap dress with a powder blue ribbon around the waist that tied in the back. Hinata's dress was the same except it had a light yellow ribbon. Mrs. Hitachiin gave us these dresses and told us she made them just for us. We were so happy. Once we were done changing, we silently walked into the dinning room.
Hikaru's POV
" Kaoru, are you alright?" I asked once he calmed down. It takes a lot to get Kaoru this mad, and Sakura was able to piss him off in a mater of minutes. He looked so sad too. " Come on." I said in a cheerful voice. " Lets go eat." He reluctantly got up and shuffled out the door. Once we got into the dinning room, Kaoru's jaw dropped. He was looking at Sakura and Hinata. I looked too and smiled. The girls were wearing the dresses that Kaoru and our mom made. Kaoru made the blue one with Sakura in mind. Mom made the yellow one to match I guess. Neither of us knew that mom was giving them to the girls. Kaoru thought they were going to be sold. Then again, I think she said something about new models and Sakura and Hinata in the same sentence. (A/N: Hehe foreshadowing!)
Everyone else was already at the table so there were only two chairs left, one next to Hunny sempai and one next to Sakura. Luckily, the chairs were next to each other. I took the one next to Hunny sempai, forcing Kaoru next to Sakura.
Sakura's POV
Tamaki sempai started to speak. " Sakura, you had us all worried. You and Hinata should have run away, not beat those guys up. If it weren't for Kaoru, you probably would have drowned. We were all so worried." He said in a serious and non-Tamaki tone. Then he added, " Daddy doesn't like it when his daughters are in trouble!!" Okay, that sounds like Tamaki. " Listen guys," I started. " I'm really sorry that I worried you, but Hinata and I can take care of ourselves. We have been studying martial arts since we were four years old. We really are sorry that we worried you. I guess we really didn't think you guys would get this worked up, considering how we just met you yesterday." Hinata nodded her head. " We weren't really thinking." Hinata added. " We're really sorry," we said in unison. Kaoru stood up and walked out of the room. I looked over to Hikaru. " He is still a little mad, I think you should apologize to him alone." Hikaru said while the others nodded. Even Hinata nodded. I shot her a look that meant ' traitor' and she rolled her eyes. I made my way over the Kaoru's room. I knocked on the door and there was no answer. " Kaoru, its me Sakura. Open the door please." I said. I was starting to get nervous. Finally Kaoru opened the door. " Hey." I said. " Hey." He opened the door fully and I walked into the room. We sat down and I started to talk. " I'm really sorry Kaoru. I didn't know you were so upset. I was being stupid and wasn't thinking. I'm just not used to having anyone other than Hinata care about me. Please forgive me." The words just flew out of my mouth. Suddenly, the lights went out and thunder boomed. I let out a quiet whimper and could feel the tears building up. I have always been afraid of thunder.
Kaoru's POV
Sakura let out a small whimper. "Are you scared?" I asked. I was slightly amused. "N-no." She stuttered I rolled my eyes. "Yes you are." She nodded. I put my arms around her. She whimpered into my chest. We just sat there until she fell asleep. I picked her up and carried her into her room. I put her in her bed .I sat on her couch and fell asleep.
Sakura's POV
When I woke up, I was in my bed. I looked around and saw Kaoru on my couch. "Morning." He said. " Morning." We talked for a while and then he left so I could get ready for today. One day down, two to go.
