Okay, so thank you for all the reviews, favorites, and follows. I try to respond to all of my reviews. If I don't answer you, feel free to kick me :D
Read and Review, please :D
Koaru
I wake up next to Hikaru, and wonder how that happened. Then I remember that my mother is not here, and my father has allowed us to be together, for however long he feels like letting us be happy. As I watch, Hikaru's eyes flutter open. He smiles. I can't help but smile back. He gets out of bed first, leaving my cold, and sad. I pout, which Hikaru doesn't notice, since his back is to me. I watch him stretch, and wonder why we still have our clothes on, and then he's dropping back into bed. He's facing me.
"Hi." I squeak, surprised. Instead of answering, he kisses me. Which is just fine by me. I kiss back with as much passion as I can muster still being mostly asleep. A knock on the door causes Hikaru to tense before pulling away. His eyes cast up towards the ceiling before coming back to land on me, grin in place. He drops down across my stomach with a sigh. A maid comes in, and Hikaru sits up with a jolt.
"You." he accuses her.
"Me, sir?" She asks, confused. Hikaru nods.
"You took care of Kaoru." He says, still as if he's accusing her of something.
"Yes, sir."
"Thanks, again." He says, before dropping onto my stomach, successfully pushing all the air out of my lungs in whoosh.
"You're welcome, sir. Your father wishes for you to join him for breakfast." She says, before leaving. I frown, Hikaru sits up, again, and I'm allowed to breathe.
"You're heavy." I mutter. Hikaru throws me a glance before climbing out of the bed to get dressed. I follow suit, and as he always does, Hikaru does the buttons up for me. I thank him by kissing him gently. Apparently, he wasn't expecting this, because he gives me a confused grin. We leave the room together, to eat.
Father had talked. A lot. About nothing. The only part of the conversation I hear is that he's going to pick us up after school, to see the dance studio. It's not like we can tell him no. The first thing I notice when I step into the classroom is that Haruhi is not in her spot. Actually, she's not even in the room. Hikaru notices, too.
"Where do you think she is? I don't think she's ever missed a day before." He says. I shrug, then notice missing twin boys, as well.
"Maybe Yamato and Hayden stole her." I say. Hikaru gives me a strange look, then seems to notice they aren't there, too.
"I doubt Yamato stole her, he wants you. And Hayden just wants him."
"He doesn't want me." I mutter, offended. Hikaru shrugs. As we spoke, we had sat down in our seats. Haruhi comes flying through the doors, right as the bell rings, and gives us both dirty looks.
"You guys are starting to wear off on me!" She whines. The other twins don't show up. At all. The host club is normal, except that apparently Hikaru and I are happier then we've been in awhile. I inform the girls that last night was our anniversary, and it was very special. It gets a squeal, due to the 'cuteness' of it, and a look of appreciation from Hikaru, who didn't know what to say. Afterwards, we are greeted outside by our father, as promised. The drive is silent. When we finally get there, our father follows us into the studio. Yamato and Hayden stand in the middle of the room, clearly arguing. The girl Yamato had been fighting with when my mother has come is closest to us. Melody is sitting by the boys head in her hands.
"What are they fighting about?" Hikaru asks. A girl to his right answers him.
"Who knows? They're always fighting. I think Yamato's going to win. He normally does."
"Hayden's going to win." Someone else says. Melody shoots them a glare, and they fall silent.
"You're a bitch, you know that?" Hayden demands, voice rising slightly. At first, I think Yamato's hurt, because his head is bowed. Then he looks up and smiles. It's a very innocent, angelic smile.
"Hey, you're crazy bitch, but you fuck so good I'm on top of it." Yamato had sung the words into Hayden's bewildered face before laughing, and spinning away from his brother. He basically glides past without a glance. He leaves. The room is silent.
"Well, then.." My father says, breaking the silence.
"That's a song." Melody and Hayden say at the same time. Melody unfolds herself from the ground.
"Sure it is." Hikaru teases. Hayden flushes. Melody indicates we should follow Hayden. He leads us to the room him and Hikaru normally use. He kicks off his shoes before sitting on the floor. We copy him.
"What're you guys fighting about?" I ask softly. Hayden doesn't look at me.
"Nothing, really. He's just pissy, today." Hayden says with a shrug. I don't think that's entirely true, but I don't question him. Hayden leads us through the stretches until Melody says we can go back to their house. We head there, and the door is unlocked, and all the lights are on. No sign of anyone though.
"Yamato?" Hayden calls. Silence.
"Keru?" He tries. Still nothing. We walk through the house, and I notice red..something splatter along the floor leading out of their kitchen and down the hallway.
"Hayden, look." I indicate the ground.
"Yamato!?" His voice rises, cracking at the end, and he runs down the hallway, pushing the bathroom door open. I hear the other twin squeak.
"What the hell did you do!?" Hayden snaps.
"I didn't do anything. You're fucking cat scared me and I cut my hand by accident." Hikaru and I venture down the hallway to find Yamato standing in the bathroom, blood everywhere, his hand under the faucet. In the very center of his palm is a huge gash.
"You're very accident prone." I tell him. Yamato gives me a dirty look.
"You would be, too, if you weren't spoiled little rich kids." He snaps. It's kind of rude, sure, but I've come to expect it from him. Hayden rolls his eyes.
"Stop being an asshole." Hayden says.
"It is true, though." Hikaru says absently. I nod my head in agreement. We don't have to do anything for ourselves. Why would we get hurt using knifes? I don't even know how to make toast.
"Not helping my point." Hayden mutters. Hikaru's arms slip around me as we watch Hayden deal with Yamato's bleeding hand. I snuggle into my brother. Today we go to the living room, with a mumbled excuse that Yamato had trashed their bedroom. Hayden rolls his eyes, but says nothing. We watch most of a movie, which Hikaru insists on pointing out all parts that don't make sense. Eventually, I give up trying to watch the movie and focus mostly on my brothers voice. Neither Hayden or Yamato seem to really be watching either. The door shuts with a slam, causing all of us to jump.
"Yama?" Takeru calls.
"What?" The other boy answers.
"You promised me."
"Oh. Right. Coming." The blonde yanks himself off the couch and disappears. Hayden watches with mild interest. Yamato returns with a sweater and shoes on.
"You guys should head back, too." Yamato says, as he leaves with his younger brother. Hayden checks the time on his cell phone.
"He's right. Your dad, or mom, or car, or whoever should be there soon." I find myself actually excited to be going home. Time with Hikaru. It was all I could think about. I hardly even notice the things going on around me.
"You're very happy." Hikaru says as we enter our house. I just smile at him, which he returns. We head up the stairs together. It takes everything I have not to out right run. The second the door closes behind my brother, I tackle-hug him. He stumbles against the door, and holds onto me tightly with a laugh.
"I missed you, too!" he promises me. I look up and kiss him forcefully.
Hikaru
Originally, it had only been a kiss. It turned out into a make out session, and now I couldn't breathe. I pull away, reluctantly. I didn't want to stop kissing Kaoru. However, I didn't want to die, either. Kaoru makes a noise of protest, but that's it. I lead my brother over to the bed.
"Maybe dad'll let us down to the T.V room, to watch a movie." I suggest. Kaoru nods his head.
"How about a shower, first, though?" Koaru asks. I nod my head this time. We shower separately, and get dressed. Then, hand in hand, we go searching for our father. We find him in his study. When he sees is, he puts his fingers to his lips. We stay silent. A second later, our mother's voice comes through the speaker on his phone.
"Sorry, there was a bit of a emergency there. So how are the boys?"
"Fine." Our father says. Kaoru busies himself playing with my fingers. Our father watches him, but doesn't say anything. Actually hardly even reacts to it. Koaru and I listen quietly as our parents talk about us. Since when did they care? I study the ceiling, impatiently waiting. Eventually I hear my father direct his attention to us.
"What can I do for you boys?" Koaru starts talking before I can I even look at our father.
"We want to watch a movie. In the T.V room. Why do we have a T.V room? Why can't we just have a T.V in the living room, like normal people?" My brother continues on about all the places a T.V should be.
"Koaru, shush." I say. He stops talking immediately. Our father has an amused look on his face. Koaru flushes.
"Sorry." He mumbles.
"I guess we could put a T.V in your room..." Father says, trailing off, and getting lost in his thoughts. We wait. "But yes, go watch a movie." Kaoru and I leave as soon as we're allowed, leaving father to do whatever it was he was doing. We spend twenty or so minutes bickering over what movie to watch. Kaoru wants to watch a scary one, I want a funny one. We end up picking his. He always wins. The second his lower lip sticks out, he knows he's won. Not that we pay much attention to the movie, anyway. We spend most of it kissing. And touching. And rubbing...and you get the idea, I'm sure. After the movie, Kaoru decides he wants food. I want nothing more then to take him back to the bedroom, lock the door, and continue what we were doing.
"But Kao," I whine. "I want to continue what we we-" I fall silent as my father appears. I smile. He raises his eye brows, but says nothing.
"You guys are still in here?" He asks.
"We're debating on what we should eat." Kaoru says. He's shoulder is still resting against mine. I wonder what our father is thinking. If he actually knows about...us.
"Ah, well. You still have school tomorrow." He says, before leaving without saying good bye. Kaoru drops his head back against the couch, exposing his throat. I chew on my lip. I want to kiss him. His stomach makes a grumbley noise, and I laugh.
"Okay, food first. Then cuddles?" I ask. Kaoru nods. We head to the kitchen, and find someone waiting there for us. We end up with something simple; soup and crackers. Neither of us mind. We eat quietly, in the kitchen. When we're done, and we're heading to our room, our hands link together. Inside the room, Kaoru and I strip down to nakedness, and crawl into bed together. Kaoru's facing me, and wraps his arm around my waist, snuggling into me. He sighs, content. I hide my face in his hair, wrapping my arms around him, too. I kiss his head, which causes him to look up, and kisses me gently. I smile has a I breathe in my brother. I wonder how we're going to make it once Mother gets back.
