A/N: This will feature the twins a lot. It will be pretty similar to the chapter and episode of the manga and anime, respectively, of Tamaki getting the two to join. At the same time, since this isa fanfic, there will be slight twists, but the dialogue should hold similar content.


"H-Hikaru?"

The girl blushed at seeing her crush. She had always liked him, but never had the courage to confess until now. She had sent him a love letter, but had never dreamed that he would actually come to the meeting place she suggested (she expected to not see him). It was actually harder than she thought; talking face-to-face with him was more of a challenge than she imagined it in her head. She shyly ducked her head at her stutter.

"I'm sorry, but… I am Kaoru," the boy said.

She looked up.

He held up a small letter.

She gasped. That was the letter intended for Hikaru….

"I read your letter. You must have gotten my desk confused with Hikaru's. But…." He leaned in closer, and coyly asked, "Do you think you could ever like me? Hikaru likes someone else, and I must confess, I had always thought you were cute. Whaddya say?"

The girl looked around, bashful at the confession the red-haired boy had made. Kaoru was just as cute as Hikaru….

She nodded, and ducked her head once more. "If it's okay with you, Kaoru, then I am too."

The boy smirked.

"Hey Kaoru," he called out.

The girl lifted her head up in shock. Kaoru was in front of her. How…?

"She said she'd be fine with you!"

The mirror image of 'Kaoru' made his appearance.

"Huh?" She was confused. What was going on?

"This is getting old. You girls keep falling for the same thing," 'Kaoru' said.

"You're…." The girl was at a loss for words. Tears blurred her vision. How could she have been fooled?

"Hikaru? Yes," 'Kaoru' said with disdain.

"You know, if you want to be seen with us, you should change your fashion sense." The real Kaoru had made his way over to the two. "It's pathetic."

"And next time you write a love letter, make it good," the twins said.

Hikaru held up the love letter, and ripped it multiple times. They both laughed. It was so easy to play them….

The girl watched in horror as the remains of her confession fluttered to the ground. Tears streamed down her face, as she witnessed this act of rejection.

"You're so mean," she cried. Humiliated, she ran away. Away from the twins.

"No," Kaoru said softly. His eyes followed the retreating figure, scorn filling his and his brother's eyes. "You're the mean one."

They turned their heads at the sound of footsteps.

"There you two are," Tamaki said, only slightly aware of what had just happened. As ridiculous as he could be, Tamaki could be quite serious when he wanted, and he was very serious about having the twins as hosts in his new club. "I had an idea. Why don't you two help me make a club? Ideally I'd like to start as soon as I graduate, but the state of the next year will have to do."

"Get lost."

"We don't want to join."

"But if you really want us to join, let's play—"

"— The 'Which One Is Hikaru' Game!" they said in unison.

"The rules are pretty simple. You just have to guess which one of is Hikaru."

"But you need to give the reason. You can't just randomly guess."

"And for the record, nobody has ever won." They left him, confident that he wouldn't accept, and leave them alone.

"I have one month, right?"

Hikaru and Kaoru turned to him, and then to each other.

"Then, I accept."

They both shrugged their shoulders simultaneously, knowing that in the end he just be another statistic. Just another person who wouldn't, and couldn't, be able to tell who was who.


"I don't understand." Tamaki slumped in the chair he was sitting in. He and Kyoya were in an empty classroom, talking about plans for the club. "If the twins want people to get to know them, why would they push them away?"

"Mm." Now that the important bit of the conversation was finished, Kyoya pulled out a book to read.

Tamaki looked at his friend. "It's really hard playing the 'Which One Is Hikaru' Game with them. I think I've gotten it correct on several occasions, but they are so adamant about not getting close to anyone, that they may always tell me I'm wrong."

"Mhm."

"I don't think that they even realize that people do want to get to know them. People are just turned off by their cold attitudes."

"Mhm."

Tamaki pouted at Kyoya's lack of attentiveness. "Are you even listening to me?"

Kyoya paused his reading, but did not glance up, in order to answer the question. "Well, I hear you talking."

Satisfied, Tamaki continued talking. "They even started avoiding me, and I only have one week left. Said something about bugging them. I only showed up at their house to guess who was who!"

"That sounds like something you would do," muttered Kyoya.

"Maybe Haruhi could get them to talk to me," mused Tamaki. Surely his daughter wouldn't deny her father's request. Tamaki's mind started to wander, and he wondered what other requests Haruhi would fulfill….

"But," Kyoya said, interrupting Tamaki's fantasy, "they'll be suspicious, and if they ask her, she'll truthfully tell them who sent her. Wouldn't that just aggravate them further?"

"Don't worry! I have an idea!"


"Do you miss that Suoh kid?" Kaoru asked Hikaru. It had been several days since they had stopped avoiding him for a minute, in order to ask the heir to the Suoh Enterprises to leave them alone.

"Nah. He was annoying."

Actually, they both missed the blond, not that they would ever admit that. It was nice having someone who wanted to know them better. Many couldn't stomach the twins' cold and detached nature, nor could any of them tell the twins apart with a real reason.

"There she is," Kaoru suddenly said. "Let's go."


A/N: Okay, I know you guys are saying that Haruhi already guessed correctly in an earlier chapter, the first graduation scene, I think. Even though we all know that it wasn't a random guess, Hikaru and Kaoru don't (but they were shocked that she got it right on the first try). Also, they weren't play the 'Which One Is Hikaru" Game, so they were correct in saying that no one has ever won it before.

The chapters should start being right after another, meaning that it should pick up from the previous scene, or not have a huge gap between scenes. Earlier, I skipped one or two, or even three, years in order to get all the characters together. Now that we are nearly there, I'm slowing down the pace.

Also, does anyone want to guess what's going to happen in the next chapter? *is met with cricket noises* No, okay, okay.

Comment & review! I probably say that comment really means criticize, but that may have been obvious.
