2nd UPDATE TODAY! MAKE SURE TO READ CHAPTER 10 FIRST!
Earlier today I promised another chapter. here it is :D
Hikaru was in panic. they'd been searching for Kaoru all over the house twice while he was there and hadn't found him yet. it was around 6 pm now and for each minute he got more and more worried about his younger brother. what if he had run away? no he won't do that... would he?
Hikaru thought about Haruhi. she had been hanging a lot around Tamaki all day. No it wasn't the other way around as it used to be. Hikaru had noticed that they had held hands all the time and when he went searching for Kaoru in Haruhi's room a bit earlier he'd caught them kising passionate.
It was clear now. Haruhi didn't like him in the way he liked her. This upset him a little bit. But what he wanted the most was her to be happy and even if Tamaki was the biggest idiot in this world he seamed to be the one making her happy. That meant that Hikaru's chances with Haruhi was out. Or more like he had never had a chance with her.
He shouldn't have wasted all this time dating her when she didn't love him.
Then it hit him. Kaoru had left. He left because nobody had taken care of him. with nobody Hikaru meant himself. He hadn't been a good big brother. He had thought Kaoru could handle things on his own. that it was okay for him to leave his younger brother with the others. Hikaru just didn't realize that this was the time when Kaoru needed him the most.
Tears fell down the older brother's cheeks as he realized what he had done, or didn't do.
Hikaru - who had been sitting in the kitchen - stood up. If Kaoru had left because of him he would have to find him. the younger boy didn't know any other places than the village so he would most likely be there.
Hikaru went to the front door and went outside. on his way he passed Haruhi and Tamaki who just stood, holding hands and smiling at each other. Just as he opened the door Haruhi lifted her head and saw him leave. she also saw the tears in his eyes and knew that now he'd realized what he had done.
Haruhi looked at Tamaki. "let's find the others. we have to stop now." she said seriously. Tamaki just nodded his head.
Hikaru went to the village, he ran around calling Kaoru's name. After he'd searched for a little while he stopped running and started walking around asking people if they had seen him.
"Have you seen a boy looking much like me just around five years old instead?" he asked an elder woman with her hands filled with bags.
"no I'm sorry. is he alone here?" she asked looking worried at Hikaru.
"yeah... he ran away from our place" Hikaru said in a sad tone feeling guilty. he couldn't look into the woman's eyes. they were too kind, They were just as kind as Kaoru's.
"I'm really really sorry. Give me your phone number and I'll call you if I finds him" she said.
They got each other's phone numbers and Hikaru continued asking around until he heard someone yell far behind him.
"Hika-chan!" Hikaru turned around to see Honey and Mori. they came up to him
"what?" Hikaru said sadly.
"come back" Mori said looking at the red haired younger boy.
"no I must find Kaoru. I have to" Hikaru whispered, tears running down his cheeks.
"come on Hika-chan! we have something to tell you!" Honey said.
"no I have to find Kaoru before I come back!" Hikaru yelled. He hid his eyes behind his hair as they couldn't see him cry. "it's all my fault" he whispered.
"it's important now come back" Mori said grabbing Hikaru's wrist and started dragging him back towards the house. Hikaru fought against him but not for long until he gave up. he didn't want to break his wrist which he was sure would happen if he kept fighting.
He just wanted to find Kaoru before something bad happened.
So. that was it.
I'm really sorry to say this but the story will end soon... Really soon.
Even if I know what's gonna happen in the next chapter I won't update for a little while. I'll be out. I promise the next update will come either Wednesday or Thursday. (don't worry I can keep it) so be prepared for that. I hope to finish before I go to my new school.
well bye for now!
