CHAPTER NINE:

Hikaru was pacing around his room. Every so often he'd go back to painting his picture but for the most part he was just walking around trying to figure out what to do. CLEARLY Kaoru liked him. A lot. But he was still slightly scared to admit something as weak as feeling a loving emotion towards another. He didn't want to be hurt. Truth be known he never liked anyone before. And it was very weird that he liked someone that looked EXACTLY like him.

"AH THIS IS BULLSHIT!" Hikaru slammed one of the books he was reading on the ground. "WHY THE FUCK IS HE ALWAYS ON MY MIND!?"

Hikaru angrily sat on his stool and closed his eyes and took in a deep breath. He grabbed to paintbrushes. One he held with his teeth incase he needed it and the other was in his hand. He started to paint the detail of the orange hair on the figure. Everything was painted except for the hair and face. As he painted, more and more it turned out to look like Kaoru. Maybe it was supposed to.

About 20 minutes later he was done. He worked on this painting for about 3 days straight and it's finally done.

Hikaru gave a very satisfied smile and placed the paints and brushes down. He needed to fuck something... He had such a killer pain between his thighs.

That's when Kyoya walked in.

"What's u..p.." Hikaru's eyes were wide and he dashed over to Kyoya. "WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?!"

Kyoya looked very different. His face was more mature and he held himself up higher. He didn't have cute small cat ears on his head or a long wiry tail.

"I'm not innocent anymore." Kyoya stated, like it was the most obvious topic ever.

"W-why?!" Hikaru cried out and Kyoya held out his hand and showed him the ring.

"Because I know where my place is." He said calmly.

Hikaru couldn't believe it. His PRINCE, he knew that man for all of his life. And now he isn't innocent.

Hikaru just rushed to see Kaoru. What did Kyoya mean 'because I know where my place is' what the hell?

He opened the door and saw Tamaki and Kaoru laying in the bed.

Tamaki had his arms wrapped around Kaoru protectively and Kaoru was cuddled up to Tamaki's chest. That angered Kaoru. How dare that fucking Tenshi. He walked over and noticed something.

Tamaki had a ring on. It was a golden ring, thin with what seemed like a red wire in-between the gold bands.

"Kyoya's tail." His mouth was hung opened. But still, Tamaki cheated on Kyoya and Kaoru cheated on h-... no one..." Hikaru's expression dropped. That's right. He didn't mean anything to Kaoru. But still.. He was so angry.

"WAKE UP!" Hikaru yelled and Kaoru jumped back out of shock and Tamaki woke up slowly like it was his alarm clock.

"What happened?" Tamaki yawned and scratched his cheek.

"What the hell are you doing?" It was then that Kaoru turned to him. His cheeks were red and so were his eyes. He closed his mouth and gulped. Kaoru was crying!? "Get out." Hikaru said to Tamaki, anger swelling inside of him. Tamaki simply got off the bed and walked out of the room and down the spiral stairs.

"Hika--" Kaoru was cut off as he looked at Hikaru's evil glare.

"What made you cry Kaoru?" He asked and his eyes turned red.

"Why do you care?" Kaoru asked and Hikaru glared.

"I don't!" He yelled and bit his tongue.

"Then good." Kaoru turned away from him with his eyes. Hikaru scowled and started throwing his usual temper tantrum.

"GOD DAMN IT KAORU!" He grabbed Kaoru roughly and threw him to the ground making him land on the back of his wings.

"Gahh!!" Kaoru's eyes watered and Hikaru grabbed him and forced him to stand. "What did I do Hikaru?" He whimpered and Hikaru paused.

"... YOU'RE JUST SO FUCKING INFURIATING!" Hikaru tossed Kaoru to the side roughly and stomped out of the room. And down the stairs he went.

He was met with Tamaki.

"Why do you hurt him Hikaru?" Tamaki asked softly.

"Bite me, Tenshi." He spat.

"Why!? I want to know why you hurt Kaoru so much! Do you hate him?! What did he do to deserve you beating him up like that!?" Tamaki asked and they walked out of the stairwell and down the hall.

"Go fuck yourself Tenshi." Hikaru snapped and Tamaki grabbed Hikaru and slammed him against the wall, Hikaru winced slightly.

"Tell me. What did Kaoru do to deserve the way you treat him? What!?" Tamaki was very stern and Hikaru shoved him off.

"It's none of your business." With that Kyoya made a very convenient cameo appearance.

"I'm going to have to ask you to calm down." He said and pushed up his glasses.

"Well tell this asshole to stop interrogating me its very fucking annoying." Hikaru snapped and Tamaki looked at Kyoya.

"He upset Kaoru and treats Kaoru like crap and I would like to know why." Tamaki said stiffly and turned to Hikaru who had his arms crossed and he was pouting like a little boy.

"Would you guys just shut up and leave me alone!?" Hikaru stomped off to his room and looked at the painting. He grimaced.

Without even walking in completely the door was opened and Tamaki stood there and threw something and closed the door again. Hikaru blinked, confused and picked it up and opened it.

When I cry over him

It hurts

When I get mad at him

He flirts

When I'm happy with him

He shoves me aside

When he looks at me

He can't tell I've cried

When I want him to look my way

He turns his cheek

When I want him to hold me

He hurts me till I'm weak

When I look at him

I feel complete

But when he looks at me

I get beat

When I think about him

My heart beats like crazy

When he's with me

I could just be lazy

When he doesn't say I love you

I'll wait

Because if he does

I wont be able to think straight

It was written in the same calligraphy from the poem before. It was Kaoru's poem.

Hikaru looked down and sighed. He stormed out of the room and Kyoya and Tamaki looked at him confused when he walked out of the palace.

He smirked as he walked through the streets. The people would scurry away, afraid like they should be. It made Hikaru feel powerful. He smirked wider and came across the shop he was looking for.

The roads and stores and outside here basically looks like it came straight from Sweeney Todd because of the depressing lighting and moist buildings.

"Master Hikaru. Welcome!" The frightened store clerk said and Hikaru raised his eyebrow at the man pursing his lips slightly and walked further into the store.

"Is there something you're looking for?" He asked and Kaoru smirked at him.

"Yes." His lips curled upwards and his fangs showed the hideously attractive evil grin of Hikaru.

Kaoru was tending to his wounds from the incident with Hikaru. It hurt badly but he wouldn't go for help. Right now he was to proud. He was holding a strong argument with Tamaki saying Hikaru didn't hurt him that often. It was getting harder and harder to defend the red headed Akuma. But he wouldn't give up. He knew, even if it was just a bit, there was good in Hikaru. He just had NO idea how to show it was all.

The door was opened and Kaoru stopped putting a healing cream on the cuts on his knees.

"Hi.. Ka... Ru?" He asked slowly and Hikaru glared and threw something on the bed. It was a gift. Wrapped up with a bow on it.

"Open it Tenshi." He spat angrily and Kaoru quickly did what he was told.

He pulled the paper off carefully and there was a white sheet of paper covering whatever was framed. In thick script it said:

"Even though he never knew,

This whole time I loved him too."

Kaoru moved the piece of paper slowly to see the beautiful painting that Hikaru was working on when he looked in his room.

But it was finished.

Kaoru looked up at Hikaru with his eyes over flowing with tears and Hikaru scowled.

"Please. Like I wanna see you cry..." He muttered angrily and turned to the door and Kaoru jumped up, despite of the pain in his knees and grabbed Hikaru.

"Thank you." Kaoru said softly and Hikaru looked over his shoulder with that same scowl. But this time it didn't reach his eyes. In his eyes, he was happy.

But Hikaru would never show that.

"Please... Stay with me." Kaoru begged and Hikaru rolled his eyes.

"My god you're needy, damn Tenshi." He hissed and Kaoru smiled up at him. He knew that Hikaru didn't mean to be so angry. He just always was.

Kaoru sat on his bed and laid next to Hikaru with the worlds biggest grin.

Even though he never knew

This whole time I love him too

Clever. Kaoru liked sitting next to Hikaru even if they weren't touching or hugging like normal couples. He didn't even know if they WERE a couple. He was just happy to be with Hikaru. No matter how annoyingly stubborn he was!

Review if your happy that Hikaru admitted!!
