Kaoru raised his hand, prepared to ring the doorbell, and stopped.

I'm early, he thought to himself looking at the midday sun, Kyoya-senpai probably isn't up yet. He shuddered at the idea of waking up the Shadow King; he had experienced the consequences thanks to Tamaki's idea of visiting a commoner's expo. Kaoru sat down on the unfamiliar doorstep, the one he dreamed of one day standing on, and resolved to wait a few more minutes before ringing the bell.

"Excuse me sir," a voice behind him said. Kaoru stood up and looked around, trying to find the source of the voice. He found a small speaker above the door bell, pressing the button on it he replied, "Yes?"

"If you don't have business here I firmly suggest you leave the premise at once," the voice continued in a cheery tone, similar to the one Kyoya used when he wanted to intimidate others.

There was no avoiding it anymore, "I'm here to see Kyoya-senpai," Kaoru said nervously.

"Oh," the voice seemed disappointed, "Sorry for the confusion, sir. Please come in." The wooden doors opened, allowing Kaoru to step inside. He was immediately greeted by one of the Ootori family maids.

"Please wait here, Kyoya-sama will be down in just a moment," she said before disappearing down the hall.

Kaoru looked around the foyer, everything was just as he imagined; practical. Everything in the Ootori house served a purpose, and nothing unnecessary existed.

"Kaoru? You're early,"

Kaoru turned around to see Kyoya making his way down the stairs, his steps confident and sure. Kaoru couldn't help but look away and hope that Kyoya hadn't noticed the red tint to his cheeks. He never could look at Kyoya for too long without blushing.

"Well I was waiting and Hikaru…Well Hikaru was Hikaru," Kaoru replied looking anywhere but at the Shadow King.

"Say no more. Since you're here, let's get to work," Kyoya replied, turning back to the stairs and gesturing for Kaoru to follow.

"R-right, senpai," Kaoru said, silently cursing his brother for getting him into this situation.

The Day Before…

"Hi-ka-ru, do you mind telling me what this is?" Kaoru asked with a forced cheerfulness, holding a piece of paper in front of his brother.

"That would be the cast list," Hikaru replied, trying to look around his brother to better see the television screen.

"Right," the younger twin said calmly, "And do you know which part you gave me?"

"Juliet," the older Hitachiin stated, as though it were the most obvious thing in the world.

"Right again, dear brother. Now…WHY IN THE NAME OF ALL HUMANITY WOULD YOU CAST ME AS JULIET AND KYOYA-SENPAI AS ROMEO!?" Kaoru screamed as his anger gave way.

Hikaru unflinchingly replied, "Because you look cute in dresses, and you know you do. And because the demon lord needed a role. I doubt you'd want Tamaki as your love interest."

Kaoru shuddered at the prospect.

As he turned to purge the mental image of Tamaki as Romeo, opposite his Juliet, Hikaru called after him, "You and Kyoya-senpai might want to start practicing together. You know, build some chemistry."

Kaoru watched his brother smirk and move his eyebrows suggestively.

He had the feeling he would be an only child very soon.


I know it's a weird ending...but I thought it was a good place to end it at.

So please review and remember how awesome you are : )
