Haruhi wished she could be rid of those damned twins when she got out of school the next day. They had done nothing but bother her all day.

Mira was just getting home as well, walking inside of her apartment without even shutting the door, just flopping on her couch for a little bit. A break was definitely needed though she knew she'd have to wander up to her new friend's place eventually.

Haruhi walked into her apartment and closed the door on the twins before running and locking the door that joined her apartment to Tamaki's. She had to be quiet before he noticed that she was home, or else he would open it before she could lock it.

Mira sighs happily as she just hung out there, shutting her eyes for a second. She was tired of walking around for the majority of the day, though she thought it was worth it. At least it was a simpler day compared to what the future was to hold.

Hikaru and Kaoru inspected the apartment doors on the complex, looking for Mira's.

"So which one do you think is hers?" Hikaru asked Kaoru.

"I don't know," Kaoru said. "They don't have name plates." He narrowed his eyes. "This could get a bit tricky."

Mira thought she heard someone on her floor of the apartment building, though didn't really take it to heart for the moment. At this point in time, she shut her door a little more and went to find something a little more comfortable and not covered in sweat before leaving the house.

Hikaru sighed. "Think, Kaoru. Where is Haruhi's apartment on the floor above this one?"

"I think two doors down from here," Kaoru answered. "Why?"

"Then Mira-chan is directly below, right?" Hikaru asked.

Kaoru's eyes widened. "You're a genius!"

Mira changed quickly, then off to grab something to wake her up and fill her stomach with a small smile. Best part of the day; getting food. All of it. Best part, she didn't care what anyone said.

Kaoru went to the door that Hikaru designated Mira's and knocked on it. He was just hoping that it was hers.

And just before she could dive right into the small bowl of cereal in front of her, Mira heard a knock at the door. A loud groan of defeat rang in her mind as she opened the door, looking up to see the twins. "Oh, hey guys. What's up?"

"Told you it was her apartment," Hikaru commented to Kaoru, not caring if Mira heard him.

Kaoru turned a deep shade of red. "Uh, nothing much. Just got out of school. How about you?"

Mira raises a brow as she heard this, though not really having a moment to speak about it. "Oh, same here. Was just grabbing a quick snack and I was going to head up to Haruhi's..."

"Hey, same here," Hikaru said. He turned to Kaoru, who was still blushing like crazy. "What a coincidence, right, Kaoru?"

Mira tilts her head a little at this. Yeah, what a coincidence... she thought to herself, though still kept a positive front. "Did you guys want to grab something while you were here? I mean, a flight of stairs isn't that hard, but still..."

"No, I'm good," Kaoru said as his brother walked in.

"Sure, why not?" Hikaru said, acting as if he had been inside of many women's apartments before. "So, how old are you, Mira-chan?"

Mira raises a brow at this, sighing before shrugging it. "Okay then... Make yourself at home," she said, pouting slightly. "And I'm 19, yeah. I'm in my first year here."

Kaoru's eyes widened. "She's not Mira-chan, she's Mira-senpai!"

Mira raises a brow, slowly understanding what Kaoru was yelling about. "Um... I don't really mind either way what you guys call me... I'm just Mira for all I care..."

Kaoru was still astonished. "You're really nineteen?"

Mira sighs and nods a little. "I was cursed to be short from the start... But yeah, nineteen."

"I never would have guessed," Kaoru said, smiling at her admirably.

Mira shrugs a little. "Yeah... It's still sort of hard to believe as well. Still feel eighteen right after I turned nineteen..."

"We're only seventeen," Hikaru groaned. "It feels like we'll never get older."

"Wow, really? Could have fooled me..." Mira commented, looking between the twins. Like there'd be a difference. Not even close.

"Could have fooled you?" Hikaru asked. "How so?"

"You guys just seem so much older, I wouldn't have thought," Mira explained, to the best of her ability at least.

"Japanese guys are a lot more mature than American guys," Hikaru simply stated. "I've noticed that."

Mira shrugs and nods a little. "Yeah, since I met you guys I've definitely noticed that for myself..."

"Kyouya and Mori-senpai are the most mature ones," Kaoru said.

Mira nods a little in agreement to this. "Definitely... Although they're both rather silent, so it's hard to tell..."

"You should see Kyouya-senpai when he's drunk. He's not so mature then," Hikaru laughed.

And now she was interested in a higher degree. "Oh? How so?" she asked, looking between the twins curiously.

"He becomes whiny and weird," Kaoru laughed. "He sang to Haruhi's pillow last time!"

Mira chuckles a little, shaking her head. "That's a mental image to really think about..."

"Maybe you should get him drunk sometime and see what he does," Hikaru suggested. "It's worth a shot, isn't it?"

Mira shrugs and nods a little. "Definitely. I don't think I'd be able to join him, but I'd like to see that."

"Well he has to do it in secret in his own apartment," Kaoru said. "But if he has your number, he'll probably call you."

"What, are you kidding?" Hikaru laughed. "He probably already has her number. Or do you underestimate," he imitated Kyouya as he said, "the intelligence of the Otori Group?"

Mira blinked a little, trying to understand what's going on. "What do you mean...?" She asked, looking back and forth between the twins. Seeing as she doesn't know a thing about the Otori Group, she had to question it. Like any sane person would.

"The Otori Group is Kyouya-senpai's family," Kaoru explained.

"They're one of the richest families in Japan," Hikaru continued.

"Any information he may want, he'll get," they finished in unison.

Mira had to listen as carefully as she could because of these two. Difficult when you have two similar voices going at the same time. "That's... that's fair. Terrifying, though..."

"We all technically have access to it, but we don't care enough," Hikaru said. "Kyouya-senpai just uses knowledge and power to his advantage."

Mira nods a little. "That's fair... If he has that much then who wouldn't?" She asked, sighing a little. Though still... Stuff like that here could get a lot of people in trouble.

Kaoru shrugged. "I've never used my wealth to spy on anyone."

Mira nods a little, smiling a bit. "That's good to hear.."

Hikaru sighed. "We're not evil like him."

"I wouldn't even know... I mean, I just met you guys yesterday, so..." Mira shrugged a bit as she said this, rubbing the back of her neck. "Though I trust you guys. Definitely."

Kaoru looked to Hikaru and smiled. "She trusts us."

Mira smiles a little as she heard him say this, nodding in agreement. Nothing else to really contribute at the moment.

Hikaru smirked. "Glad that you do, Mira."

"Of course. Though if someone has anything to say about it, I might still be wary," Mira chuckles, though still smiling happily to the both of them.

Kaoru just laughed. "No, we're good."

Mira smiles a little and nods. "Alright, I'm holding you to your word."

Hikaru exchanged a look with his brother. "Just fine."

Mira nods again, then realizing what they were really there for. "O-Oh, crap, snacks right? I'm sorry, I forgot..."

Hikaru nodded. "I'm starving."

"Alright, anything specific you guys want? I have some chips, might have some yogurt..." Mira mumbles the last bit, having to think on it a bit. "I'm limited until I get paid in a couple days, but whatever you guys want."

"Chips sound good," Hikaru said.

Mira nods a little and goes to her kitchen in order to obtain them.

Hikaru looked around, examining his surroundings.

Mira got the chips into a bowl and brought them out. "There. Nothing fancy, but it'll do... I hope."

"Thank you," Hikaru said.

Mira nods a little. "No problem."

Kaoru's jaw dropped. "He actually thanked you," he said in shock.

Mira looked over at him. "What's so odd about it...?"

Kaoru laughed as Hikaru glared at him.

"Nothing," Hikaru said.

She tilted her head a little, though thought nothing of it. "Alright... As long as you're sure...?"

"We're sure," they answered in unison.

"Alright then," Mira said with a confident nod to the two of them.

Hikaru glanced over to Kaoru and smirked, putting a chip in his mouth and taking a bite.

Mira didn't really take that much of notice to it, looking at the time on her phone for a quick second.

Kaoru glanced over at Mira, a faint blush on his cheeks. "So, Mira, how difficult are classes at Harvard anyway?"

She looked up at the two, pocketing her phone quickly. "Well, since it's the first day, it's not that hard... Though it's not going to get any easier as time goes on, but it's still fun."

"High school's too easy," Hikaru complained. "Especially here in America. It almost puts me to sleep."

Mira chuckled a little. "Yeah, it's really boring... You barely need a lot of it, so I don't see why they enforce it anyway."

"I know, right?" Kaoru asked.

Mira nodded a little. "It's ridiculous. Especially when you're taking classes you don't even aspire to be..." She sighed a little as she said this. No one knew how many times she'd had to deal with that.

Kaoru nodded. "They're making me retake classes here."

"Really? You'd think that it wouldn't even matter, since you've been over more than the school is making people take..." Mira said, thinking aloud more than anything, though it was still a thought nonetheless.

"It's annoying," Hikaru huffed. "We shouldn't have to do any of it. We're rich, for God's sake."

"Pardon the language but even the rich bitches have to go through with it. And trust me, there are a lot of them," Mira explained, shuddering at the thought of literally any of them.

"And what are we?" Hikaru demanded, getting defensive.

Mira took in the tone, eye widening as she realized what she said. "N-No, not you guys...!" She stuttered out, eyes wide. "Like, the other people there... I didn't mean it like that. Figures, every time I open my mouth I offend someone..."

Kaoru shrugged. "I'm not offended."

Mira looked over at him, sighing a bit in relief. "Thank goodness..."

Hikaru huffed a little before agreeing with his brother. "Neither am I..."

"Are you sure...?" Mira asked, seeing as he was being all uppity about it earlier. She just didn't want anyone mad at her specifically, so she had to be sure.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Hikaru stated.

Mira nods a little. "A-Alright..." she stuttered out, not meaning to but she was nervous.

"What are you so nervous about?" Kaoru asked, concerned.

Mira shrugged a little. "Didn't really mean to upset you guys if at all. That's my only issue," she admitted, rubbing the back of her neck.

"He's not upset," Kaoru flatly stated.

Mira nodded a little to this. "As long as you're certain. Would rather not get my head torn off today..."

"He wouldn't dare," Kaoru said, smiling.

"I think I'd be surprised if he didn't, though," Mira chuckled a little, trying to make a funny. Though death was the last thing she wanted from either of them. And from the argument they were having the night before, nothing would be surprising with either of them.

Hikaru laughed. "I wouldn't kill you, Mira. You're cool."

Mira laughed along with him. "Oh, thank goodness," she said, a sense of relief washing over her. Though if he asked, it was an act. She wasn't going to let him know that she was afraid he'd kill her.

Kaoru looked at her, fondness in his eyes. "We like you, Mira. So of course we'd let you live."

Mira felt the sparkle of achievement in her eyes, though tried to hide the fact that that happened. "I'm happy to hear it."

Hikaru chuckled. "But don't get too cocky about it."

"I'll do my best," Mira said with a half-assed salute to the twins.

Kaoru grinned at her.

Mira grinned happily in return.

Hikaru scoffed.

She looked to Hikaru at the sound of the scoff. "W-Wha...?"

"Nothing," he said, smirking.

"You look like you have a little more than nothing in mind..." Mira said, a little skeptical now. What was going on...?

"You'll just have to find out," Hikaru said with a mischievous grin.

After all, they didn't call him the devil type for nothing.
