Hi! I'm back. Now, I know some of you probably want to slap me or kick me or hurt me in some painful way for not updating in so long, and I'm sorry. I've been busy, and had to update my other story too. :P Ok! I won't keep you from reading my story any longer, so here ya go!

Gabriel was pretty sure she was a bad person. But she had only been trying to help! Still. Bad person bad person bad person…

Why had she thought it was a good idea? Since when were any of her ideas good ideas? But Kaoru had agreed too, and helped formulate it, so maybe it hadn't been a bad idea. Maybe it was just the person they tried the idea on. After all, Abigail wasn't you're average person…

It had started at the party. Gabriel had been dancing with Kaoru to a slow song, so close she could feel his body heat. She had practically been in dreamland she was so happy. Then she saw, to her surprise, Abigail and Hikaru dancing. They'd looked so cute together, so happy…

"You know," she murmured into Kaoru's ear, and felt him stiffen in surprise. He'd been in the same dreamlike state as her. "We haven't done anything to get Hikaru and Abigail together in a while."

They revolved slowly around. "That's probably because last time we did that Abigail and Hikaru were locked in a closet together and Abigail ignored him for a while." He said, leaning down to speak in her ear.

Gabriel eyed the couple, then detached herself from the taller boy. She didn't let go of his arms though. "Look at them though! They're so happy…" she trailed off, staring at Abigail. Even though sometimes it didn't seem like it, Gabriel missed how close she and Abigail had been. Somehow, though, thanks to the two redhead twins, she didn't think they would get that way again. Gabriel glanced up at Kaoru. Probably because they opened us up to the world the way Tamaki did with them. She thought, which was true. Then she sighed a little. Kaoru would probably never know how important he was to her.

Kaoru was looking at his twin and Gabriel's friend, feeling the same kind of pang she did. Then he looked at Gabriel. It's not all that bad that me and Hikaru aren't as close as we used to be. In fact, it's probably good we aren't as dependent on each other. Thanks to these two girls. He thought. For him, mostly Gabriel changed Kaoru. Then he gave a small sigh. Gabriel would probably never know how important she was to him.

"So," he said, shaking both him and Gabriel out of their thoughts, "what are we going to do?"

And that's how it started. They'd bribed the DJ into shining the spotlight on Hikaru and Abigail. Gabriel had silently told Abigail there was no way to get out of kissing Hikaru, and it was surprising she bought it, considering she knew that Gabriel could worm her way out of anything. Well…Gabriel thought, thinking of the host club they worked for. Anything that doesn't include Kyoya.

And now…now everything was messed up.

"So…I noticed you seemed to have been, um, ignoring the twins lately." Gabriel said to Abigail, trying to sound nonchalant.

Abigail shrugged. "Yeah, well, if you kissed some guy you didn't like, wouldn't you try to avoid him?" she said.

You didn't like. Abigail did like Hikaru. Gabriel just needed to find out why she was avoiding him.

Hikaru was avoiding Abigail too, pretending she wasn't in the room when she was. For that matter, he avoided Gabriel too, because she was always, loyally, with Abigail. Hikaru had a better reason though, for avoiding Abigail. It must suck to have the person you like kiss you, then ditch out on you right after, and avoid you for the first few days when you tried to talk to her. Ouch.

Poor Hikaru. Gabriel thought, feeling a twinge of sympathy toward the redhead twin who she always thought as stubborn but vulnerable. So, why did Abigail ditch out on Hikaru? That night should've been the perfect night for them to realize their feelings. What had happened with them was affecting everyone.

Gabriel and Kaoru didn't know what to do with each other. On one hand the people they were closest with was avoiding each other, so Kaoru and Gabriel should be avoiding each other too. Still, it almost…hurt to be away from each other. Often times Kaoru, when Hikaru wasn't in the room, would look on his phone at Gabriel's number and think about calling her, but never did. And others, Gabriel would occasionally see Kaoru alone and think about going up to him, but slipped away instead. In hallways and class, they avoided each others eyes and said nothing.

Hikaru's and Abigail's strained relationship wasn't just affecting Kaoru and Abigail. Haruhi was confused too, torn between the twins, which she'd known for a while, and her sister, which she'd only known for some months. In the end she went with her sister, the ties of family stronger than friendship. She'd stand quietly by Abigail's side, exchange worried glances with Gabriel (Gabriel was like Haruhi's sister too; Haruhi had known Gabriel just as long) and look down around the twins, sending them sorry glances every now and then.

Honey wasn't as happy, and wasn't eating as much cake. He'd beg for Abigail and Hikaru to speak, with big adorable watery eyes, cry and let them hold Usa-chan and wail, "Pppllllleeeaaassseee! Abby-chan just talk to Hika-chan! Please!" But the two just looked away from each other, and he would eventually sit sulking in a chair, his eyes big and filled with tears.

Mori didn't say anything, but he was worried about his cousin and stuck by Honey's side, trying to get him to eat more cake.

Kyoya was more annoyed than anything, saying pleasantly with a dark purple aura around him, "Now I don't care what petty issues and sexual tension you two have between you just solve it after the customers leave!"

Tamaki, who had taken a while to notice, was trying to convince everyone that this was a good thing, and Abigail had seen "that dopplegangers personality, and is too precious for him! My lovely daughter will be fine without him! Right? Right?!" He was nervous, though, about all the tension between the two, and often, without even noticing he was doing it, took Haruhi's hand for support. The brunette raised an eyebrow, but said nothing. Gabriel noticed and sighed. At least THEIR relationship is working out. They seem to have gotten over the kiss we forced them into at any rate. Why can't you be more like your sister Abigail? But as soon as she thought it, Gabriel felt a sting of guilt. She knew how Abigail felt about Haruhi, and Gabriel thought Abigail was perfect as she was, and didn't need to be like Haruhi in any way. That didn't stop Abigail from getting jealous though.

The realization hit Gabriel with the force of a hurricane. "Oh!" she said, accidently switching to English. She had been in the lunch room, walking with her lunch box, when she suddenly dropped it, its contents spilling everywhere. She didn't notice. Gabriel's mind was whizzing. Duh! Of course it was Haruhi who Abigail was jealous of! She thought Hikaru still had a crush on her older sister!

How did she think that? Gabriel wondered, stumped for a moment. Didn't she see the way Hikaru looked at her?

If any guy looked at me like that, I'd have no doubts that he like me. Gabriel thought, then thought of Kaoru for a second. Blushing, she pushed the image away, glancing around for her friend. Abigail wasn't there. That's right, she was talking to some teacher about homework or something, which meant Gabriel had to sit alone. Normally they sat with the twins, but that'd obviously changed…Gabriel's mind was still whizzing.

Kaoru, who had been more or less wandering after Gabriel, trying to think of something to say to her. Now she was standing in the middle of the lunchroom with her lunch all over the ground and a far away look in her eyes. Her arms were still up and were as if she were still grabbing an invisible lunch box. Worried, Kaoru rushed over to her.

"Gabriel? Gabriel! Are you okay? Do you need a nurse? Talk to me!" Kaoru said desperately, shaking the slender girl, who was pretty much unresponsive, a far away look in her eyes. She whispered something, something Kaoru couldn't make out.

"Um, what?"

Gabriel whirled suddenly, eyes wide and fixed on him. "Oh, Kaoru! We got it all wrong! We need to have Hikaru make the first move! Abigail's too insecure, she still thinks Hikaru likes Haruhi! We need Hikaru to kiss her or something, it's the only way they'll get together!" She stared up at him pleadingly, willing him to understand. Kaoru, of course, didn't, because she had said everything in English. All he understood was that she said his name, Haruhi's name, Abigail's name, and Hikaru's name a bunch.

How strange, he mused, it was to hear his name in English. Like the same in Japanese, but different somehow.

"Um…what?" He said, realizing Gabriel was still looking at him, not to mention the whole lunchroom. "You said all that in English. Come on," he added in a lower voice, bending closer to her, "let's go somewhere more private."

Gabriel thought of many things that could happen somewhere private but then shook the images out of her head. Kaoru just wanted to talk. Of course. Just talking.

They ended up in the courtyard, where Gabriel explained everything. "Wow." Kaoru said when she was finished, because there was really no other word for it. "Um, so, what should we do?"

Gabriel didn't know. Every time they tried to do something, it ended badly. "Agh!" she groaned, and buried her face in Kaoru's chest. Kaoru started, keeping his arms out wide, unsure of whether or not to touch her. He settled his arms on her back lightly. Lightly, he began stroking her hair. "It's okay." Kaoru said softly. "It'll be fine."

Gabriel almost sobbed. She'd missed him so much, which was bizarre, but she did. "I…" she didn't know how to tell him though. It was too embarrassing.

"You what?" he asked, his fingers softly going through her hair, from her roots to the tips. She shivered, thinking she should probably get away, go away, before she did something she regretted-

"Gabriel?' Kaoru asked, sounding concerned. But she kept her face buried in his chest, worried that he might see something in her expression she didn't want him too. Mutely she shook her head.

"What is it?" he asked, sounding even more curious. Of course he'd want to know any information withheld from him. Gabriel shook her head again, her face still buried in his chest. "Nothing." She tried to say casually, but to her embarrassment and horrification her voice caught, like she was about to cry.

"What's wrong?' sounding alarmed now. God, if he could just stop stroking her hair, so she could think-

Then her face was being turned up by Kaoru's finger, his finger slowly going upwards on her throat, like he did sometimes with Hikaru when they were doing that disgusting incest act. Wait, was he trying to-charm her? She looked up at him, and was slightly scared and breathless at the expression on his face. Almost trance-like, dreamy, but with something weird on his face, like passion. Her breath caught in her throat.

His finger slowly stroked her throat up and down, fingernails drawing buzzing little patterns. She needed to get her mind on track. Gabriel tried to remember what they had been talking about before-Abigail-Hikaru-first move-a plan? Her mind scrabbled to remember, but it was too hard. She felt like she was falling, and her legs were as weak as jelly. Luckily Kaoru was supporting most of her weight, holding her close.

His hand move from her throat to her hair, stroking it again, then massaged her neck. Gabriel felt faint. His hand slide from her throat to her shoulder, and he leaned down, mouth reaching toward her, lips slightly parted-

Then Gabriel suddenly pushed away. She was breathless as though she had run a marathon, and she wasn't sure why she shoved away Kaoru, and felt almost a pang of regret. Kaoru, however, wasn't regretful that Gabriel shoved him away and felt horrified at what he had been about to do. What was he thinking? What was wrong with him? He was going to kiss her? What kind of gentlemen did that? He wasn't as big on the gentlemen thing as the Boss, sure, but he had limits, but what was it about Gabriel that brought out this weird side of him?

Kaoru turned away and ran his hands through his hair. Why do I always screw things up? He was mortified, reminding himself never to let himself be alone with Gabriel.

Gabriel was just as mortified, but because she realized she had basically just rejected Kaoru, something she realized she did not want to do. She stared at her feet, wondering what to say.

Kaoru was still turned away from Gabriel, hands on his head. Gabriel glanced up at him. Why is he so horrified? Maybe his host club side kicked in, and now he realized what he was about to do, and now he's disgusted. Omigod, he must be so glad I pushed him away! But I'm not! Ugh, WHY do I FEEL like this? I can't like him! He must not like me…Gabriel shook her head, tears in her eyes. "Hey Kaoru?" she said hesitantly.

He didn't move, but because Gabriel assumed he heard her because he was like two feet away. "Can we…" Can we talk? She wanted to ask but what if they talked and he didn't like her and found out she liked him and was grossed out and they weren't friends anymore? What then?

Kaoru, hearing her trail off, turned around, curiosity getting the better of him. "What?" Gabriel just shook her head, still staring at her feet.

She saw Kaoru make a move toward her out of her peripheral vision, like he was going to comfort her, but then draw back. He must not want me to get any ideas about him liking me she thought, blinking back tears.

After a long moment in silence, Kaoru finally said, "C'mon, let's go back to the cafeteria. I'll buy you lunch since you dropped yours." He added as they started walking, making sure there was a good two feet between them.

Gabriel noticed how he drawed away from her, and shook her head. "I'm not hungry." He flashed her a sharp look of concern, but she continued staring at her feet.

Neither of the teens noticed a flash of yellow and two narrowed purple eyes watching them go.

"Hey, you okay?" Abigail asked after school at their house. Gabriel, who was sitting in a chair with her feet on the table, shrugged. "Fine. Why?"

Abigail, who was looking around for something to eat, shrugged back at her friend. "I don't know. You seem so…" she turned to give Gabriel a piercing look with her brown eyes. Gabriel looked at Abigail with her own blue ones, then dropped her eyes, unable to hold Abigail's gaze.

"…Quiet." Abigail finished, in a suspiciously calm voice. Gabriel squirmed, wondering how much Abigail guessed. Did she know about her and Kaoru?

Just then, Haruhi came in. "Hey Haruhi." Both girl's said in unison. "Hi guys." Haruhi replied, setting grocery's on the counter.

"You know Haruhi…" Abigail started, surveying her older sister. "You actually look pretty in a dress." Gabriel finished, also looking at the girl who she thought of as her older sister. To Gabriel, Abigail was her twin, Haruhi was her older sister, and Ranka was her dad. (Or is it mom? Hhhmm…)

Haruhi, knowing the tone of voice the girl's were using, which meant they were up to something, kept on quietly putting grocery's on the counter, hoping their idea wouldn't effect her in some way.

"So, you know there's a dance coming up." Abigail said, looking slyly at Gabriel. Gabriel, who was getting the same idea as Abigail, got up and they both went over. "You should go as a girl this time." They said together.

"I can't. I have to be a host." Haruhi said bluntly. "But Haarruuhhiii!" Both girl's said in a whiny tone. "You'd look so adorable in a dress! Why don't you just go as a girl?"

"Because," Haruhi said in the same flat tone, "it's hosted by the host club, and I need to be there as a guy."

"Well, say you're sick or something, then go as Ihurah, Haruhi's twin sister!" Abigail said crossly.

"Ihurah?" Haruhi asked. "It's Haruhi spelled backwards." Gabriel chirped. "Just say Ihurah is shy, and doesn't like to be talked about, so you've never mentioned her before, and decided to go to this dance! For…some…reason."

Haruhi gave her a look. "That will never work." She informed her, reaching up to put something on a high shelf.

"We'll see about that!" Abigail said, flashing her a Chesire grin before walking off to her room. Gabriel was about to follow her when Haruhi called her back softly.

"Do you think Abigail's okay?" She whispered to Gabriel, you know, because this was a small house and all. Gabriel shrugged. "Not much we can do. Abigail's stubborn, and anything we might do to help will just make her stubborner."

"I thought you and Kaoru were going to have a plan or something." Haruhi said, looking at her. At the mention of Kaoru, Gabriel blushed and stammered something intelligible. Haruhi looked at her oddly. "Um-I mean-well-it's not like-Tamaki loves you!" She blurted out, for lack of better things to say, then clapped her hands over her mouth. Gabriel thought that Tamaki being crazy over Haruhi was common knowledge, but Haruhi looked pretty shocked.

"What?!" She said, looking stunned. "Um…I was never here!" Gabriel said and ran away, leaving Haruhi in the kitchen.

Well, good going Gabriel. She thought (sarcastically) to herself. At least she had gotten Haruhi's attention off her extremely stupid reaction to Kaoru's name. Why? Why did she feel like this-?

Gabriel shook herself. Enough! She told herself fiercely. Enough. No more stupid reactions to some GUY. No more being different around him. No more questions, No more confusion. That's it. I told myself after my old boyfriend broke up with me no more boyfriends, ESPECIALLY no more players. Which is what Kaoru is. A player. A nice player…Shut up! Every single guy on that host club is a player! Even Kaoru! You can be friends, but NOTHING MORE! Ugh I'm so sick of all this confusion. So, no. No one will be your boyfriend, and you DON'T LIKE ANYONE!

"Um, Gabriel?" Gabriel was startled out of her mental yelling at herself. "You okay?" Abigail asked. "You looked like your head was exploding on the inside or something."

Gabriel smirked and smacked her. "I'm fine." It was true. She felt giddy and light, not weighed down by some guy. Who needed guys? Not her. Gabriel Watterson needed nobody. Not even a cute redhead boy.

Abigail smiled at her, looking a little confused, but then said, "I am too." And it seemed they had made the same decision about boys. Especially two redhead ones.

"NNOO!"

"But you would look so cute! Please? For daddy?"

"Not! Happening!"

"Please! You would look adorable! Mommy, tell our precious daughters they would look adorable!"

"Tamaki, I believe Abigail and Gabriel would appreciate it if you let them go."

"Mommy! How can you say that? Our daughters love me! Don't you?"

"Let us go you creep!"

Gabriel and Abigail were struggling against Tamaki, who had wrapped them up in a big bear hug. Hikaru and Kaoru both looked like they wanted to tackle Tamaki, but made no move toward him. Haruhi, too, also looked, surprisingly, slightly annoyed by the blond hugging her younger sister and her friend.

Abigail and Gabriel decided to not pretend to crush on Tamaki anymore, 1. because Haruhi and Tamaki needed to get together, and 2. they weren't trying to make anyone jealous.

"Pleeaassee?" Tamaki asked, hugging them tighter.

"Sexual…abuse…" Abigail coughed out. Tamaki took no notice. "Will you just wear them? My lovely daughters will look adorable!"

Gabriel got an idea. "Tamaki-senpai, if we wear them…" she started. Abigail finished her sentence. "Will you let us go?"

Tamaki beamed, happy he got his daughters to wear the (ugly) bunny outfits he wanted them to wear for hosting. He let them go.

"Ha!" the two girl's shouted, happy to be free. "We're not wearing them!"

Tamaki's eyes filled with tears. "But you promised!" he said.

"No we didn't. We just asked if we wore them would you let us go. We never promised." Abigail informed him. Tamaki went to his emo corner.

"Now, you need to wear something, ladies. It is a special occasion after all." Kyoya said, writing down something in his little black book.

Abigail was daydreaming of ways to steal his book, so Gabriel answered for her. "What's the occasion?"

"We are celebrating the host club. It has been running for quite a while now, and we want to do something in order to celebrate it."

Gabriel tried to imagine Kyoya being festive and celebrative, but couldn't. "Um, okay." She said realizing he was waiting for her to respond. "So, why do we have to dress up in bunny costumes?"

"You don't need to be dressed in bunny costumes. Just something festive." He informed her, writing something else down in his book.

I WILL get that book! Abigail thought, staring at it. Then realizing everyone was staring at her, she realized she must've spoken it aloud. "Oh, uh, right. Festive. Costumes. Bunnies. Totally got all of that. So, let's go shall we?" She said, grabbing onto Gabriel and dragging her along out of Music Room 3.

Hikaru and Kaoru exchanged glances, then walked out after them. The door closing, they could hear Haruhi talking to Tamaki hesitantly. "So, Senpai…" then the door closed.

"Gabriel. We've got two flame-heads after us." Abigail said tightly, walking quickly, without turning to look at Gabriel or the two boys behind them catching up.

"Right." Gabriel said. How much better it is, She thought, to be on the same page as Abigail again. Like it was at the beginning of the year. "So, left or right?"

Abigail considered, picking up the pace a bit. Gabriel did too. "Let's do right."

Gabriel nodded, listing out options they had to hide from Hikaru and Kaoru. "Okay. If we turn right up here, then we have a storage closet, the library, cafeteria, and an empty room used for extra clases."

"Hm. Let's do the library, it leads into the cafeteria if it doesn't work." Abigail said. Gabriel thought about it, then nodded. "Sounds good. One, two, three." Abruptly, the two girl's turned a right corner, and from there started running.

Hikaru and Kaoru heard their footsteps, and ran too. It was pretty late after school, and most of the kid's were gone. They past a girl in a yellow dress with purple eyes, just standing there,watching them. Watching Kaoru, to be more specific.

"Hi." She squeaked, like one of their typical fangirl's. The twins nodded to her at the same time, not even looking at her as they passed her, and she turned to watch them go with narrowed purple eyes.

"Gabriel! Abigail! Wait!" they shouted to the girl's, who were far ahead of them. Both girls had the urge to shout "NEVER!" and laugh maniacally, but suppressed it. They turned left, and quickly hid among bookshelfs in the library.

Hikaru and Kaoru stopped at the doorway. They had seen the girl's go in, but couldn't find them now. "Let's split up." They said at the same time, then did just that. Kaoru looked frantically around, but didn't find anyone. Gabriel had gotten too good at slipping away from him in the library.

Unfortunately for Abigail, she didn't have as much practice as her friend, and Hikaru spotted her. "Abigail!" He said, then ran to her. She yelped and sprinted away, but he tackled her and pinned her to the floor.

Abigail was on the floor, while Hikaru was above her, pinning her wrist the ground, one knee on either side of her waist. They were both breathing heavily.

Finally Abigail broke the silence. "You do realize how awkward this position is, don't you." Hikaru ignored this and stared at her, causing her to squirm. "You can't ignore me forever."

Abigail stuck her tongue out at him childishly and said, "I thought you were the one who didn't like talking about you're feelings. Like with my sister." She clamped her mouth shut, wishing she hadn't said that last part. Hikaru looked surprised and confused. "You're sister? What're you talking about?"

Abigail sighed. "Nothing. Um, can you let me up before I press charges for sexual harassment?"

Hikaru shook his head. "Not until we talk." He said stubbornly. "Fine! Talk! Let's talk! Why aren't you talking?" Abigail said angrily.

Hikaru hesitated. "Omigod, just let me off the ground. Pin me to the wall or something, but if you're going to take an eternity, I'd rather have the blood flow through my wrist during that while." Abigail said, annoyed.

Hikaru let her up, but didn't let go of her wrist. He did loosen his grip on them though. Abigail backed up, with Hikaru walking toward her, until her back hit a bookshelf. "Well, this is slightly less awkward. Now, you going to talk or not?" Abigail, still uncomfortable with Hikaru so close. She felt breathless, like she couldn't get enough air in her lungs, or couldn't breath properly.

Hikaru hesitated again, "Well…you've been avoiding me…ever since…" he trailed off, looking at the ground, no better at talking about his emotions than Abigail was. He was trying to make an effort though. "Can't we just be friends?" he asked abruptly, almost angrily.

Abigail stared at him. Oh. That wasn't what she thought he was going to say. She shook herself. "Friends?" she said skeptically. "Why do you care so much?" But even as she asked that question, a red warning light was going off inside her head. They were getting too close to talking about…ugh (shudder) feelings. If there was one thing Abigail didn't like talking about, it was feelings. She wasn't good at it, she was scared of it, she was scared of rejection. Especially from Hikaru. She just didn't want to talk about it. So she used the oldest trick in the book. "What's that?" she shouted, pointing at a random place behind Hikaru's head.

Amazingly enough, he fell for it. The moment he turned his head Abigail shoved him and ran off. "Gabriel!" she shouted, sprinting towards the door. Why do we always have to go to such great lengths just to get rid of these guys? She wondered. "Gabriel!"

Gabriel sprinted out from one of the bookcases, and together they ran out of the school and all the way home.

"So, what should we wear?" Gabriel asked a while later. Haruhi hadn't returned yet (they both assumed she was with a certain blond) and they needed outfit ideas for the host club celebration thingy.

"Hmm…Something with flowers." Abigail said. "It's kind of their thing, you know? Obsessed with flowers and all." Gabriel nodded. "Why don't we wear the dress we got the first day we worked at the host club? You know, the gray one, with all the faded flowers in different colors on it. We haven't worn it since that day, and it'd be cute if we wore it again."

Abigail nodded in agreement, thinking. "Yea, all of our regular costumers," she rolled her eyes as she said this, thinking of their idiotic "costumers", "would really like that. They've been with us ever since that day." She said, in an almost grim tone.

Gabriel nodded. If they had a penny for every card they got with some guy professing their "love" for Abigail and Gabriel…

"We'd be pretty stinkin rich." She said aloud. Abigail glanced at her. "What?" Gabriel just shook her head. "It's nothing. Now, let's get to work."

The next day, they got ready. They did all the things good hostess girl's should, putting on makeup (smoky gray eye shadow and lipstick) , doing their hair (they just decided to leave it down. It was about mid-back length, and shiny and pretty) and putting on their outfits. All the while complaining about everything.

"How come Haruhi doesn't have to do any of this?"

"Because I'm supposed to be a guy?"

"Ugh this is stupid. Who cares how long the host club had been running anyway?"

"All the customers do. It's just something for them to get excited over, and dress up for."

"Why do we have to look so nice? If our customers like us so much, then they should like us the way we are!"

"It's a host club-they mostly like all of us for the way we look."

"You know what Haruhi? You're making complaining too hard. Just-go do something! Shoo!"

And finally, around five o clock (not in the morning of course-the afternoon) they were getting ready and set up. La di dee dee da…

All the male host club members were in tuxes-all of them black tuxes, except for Tamaki, who, as the "King", wore a white tux. He was jumping and squealing about how all three of his daughters looked so adorable.

Hikaru and Kaoru got bored and tried to leave, dragging Haruhi with them. Abigail and Gabriel turned away. Normally they would (try) drag away all three of them. They met each others eyes. "Well, we don't care." Gabriel whispered to Abigail, who nodded.

Hikaru and Kaoru, who were sitting around being no help with the decorations, talked in quiet tones about the two girls. "She shoved me!" Hikaru said, recalling yesterday's events and sounding offended. "And just ran away!"

Kaoru nodded. "Maybe we need to give them time." He suggested. "Then we can talk to them. I know it's hard, but…" he trailed off, shrugging one shoulder. "I feel bad leaving things the way they are. I know you do too. We need to try. We all can at least be friends."

Hikaru nodded, looking down at his hands, and sighed.

"Gabriel. Abigail. I need you to get a banner from my car." Kyoya said, not looking up from his laptop. The two girl's shrugged. "Sure thing, Kyoya." They walked out.

"Have you noticed Hikaru and Kaoru staring at us?" Gabriel asked. Abigail shrugged a shoulder. "They can stare all they want, but their not getting near me." Gabriel nodded, a little absentmindedly.

"Um…do you know where Kyoya's car is?" Abigail asked, realizing there were multiple parking lots. Why did so many people have to go to this school?

Gabriel frowned. "Er…no. Why don't you look in that parking lot, and I'll look in this one?" Abigail nodded, and they walked in separate directions.

As Abigail walked, she suddenly wondered if she and Gabriel should've stayed together. There were cars in the parking lot, which meant she would have to look around for Kyoya's car, but it seemed deserted. Still, the place was almost…sinister. She decided to turn around and go find Gabriel but before she could there was an exploding pain on the back of her head and neck, and she blacked out.

Gabriel walked along the sidewalk, looking for Kyoya's car. It was empty, and kind of creepy. Stop being a baby. She scolded herself. Besides, any minute now there would be a bunch of girl's and guy's pulling up. Any minute now.

In fact, she thought she saw one there. It was a girl, about her age, maybe a year older, standing there. Just…standing there. Why is she standing there? Is she waiting for me? Gabriel wondered. She didn't have any…female costumers, but maybe this was a new one or something. She's probably lost and just looking for the way to the host club event. Still, she's a little early. Oh well. As Gabriel neared, the girl blinked at her and smiled. "Hello." She said, sounding friendly, although something seemed a little off about her.

"Hi." Gabriel said, studying her. The girl had purple eyes, and a yellow dress on. How do people in Japan get their eyes such weird colors? She wondered. Gabriel stared at her eyes. Yup, purples eyes.

Gabriel slowed as she walked next to the girl. "Do you need anything? Are you lost?" She asked. The girl smiled. Her smile was so wide, it almost seemed like a snarl. "Nope." She said in the same cheerful tone. Something was definitely off, and although Gabriel couldn't place it, it made the back of her neck tingle. Who stood around in parking lot's for fun?

"Well, um, I'll be going." Gabriel said, starting to walk away. "Yup." The girl said, still smiling, eyes never blinking, studying Gabriel. Oh-kay. Gabriel turned and walked away, but before she could get very far, there was an exploding pain at the back of her neck and head, and she blacked out.

"Where ARE they?" Kyoya said, annoyed. The customers were due any minute, and the girl's hadn't arrived back yet.

"We'll go find them." The twins said in unison, jumping off the couch. "I'll go." Kyoya said darkly, a purple aura around him. "No! Daddy will find his precious daughters!" Tamaki exclaimed. "I'll go find them, Senpai." Haruhi offered, concerned about the two girls. "We'll go, right Takashi!" "Yes." Honey and Mori.

In the end, everyone decided to go. It was deathly quiet, and something felt off to them, something that made the twins keep glancing over their shoulders, and Honey cling to Mori-senpai.

They walked out into a parking lot where Kyoya's car was. They weren't there. "Maybe they got lost in the other parking lots!" Honey suggested brightly. They went to another one-and all gasped. In the middle of the side-walk was one of the girl's curled up in a ball, hair spread out on the sidewalk and blood around her.

"Abigail!" Hikaru gasped, then sprinted like a madman toward her. "Abigail, Abigail, Abigail…" he said, practically sobbing, as he reached her. She didn't move. He reached out a hand toward her, but drew it back, not wanting to make whatever happened to her worse. Haruhi and the others reached her.

"Abigail! Look, she's still breathing." Haruhi said, as frantic with worry as Hikaru was. Kaoru, who had kneeled by his twin and put a hand on his shoulder, said, "Kyoya, do something! Do you know what's wrong with her?" Kaoru wasn't as close to the brown-eyed girl as Hikaru was, but they were still friends-ish.

Kyoya was already on it. "Everybody move away." He ordered. Tamkai, who looked like he was still in shock, said, gasping, "But…my precious daughter…"

"Move away Tamaki. If you want to help, call the hospital." Kyoya ordered harshly, glasses flashing. He kneeled by the crumpled girl.

Honey wailed. "Abby-chan, don't die!" he said, sobbing. Mori held the small boy. "It will be okay, Mitskini." But his eyes were dark with worry.

"Her head has been his with something hard-a rock, maybe." Kyoya informed them. He had a hand to the back of her head, trying to stem the blood flow. "I need some sort of cloth material to stop the blood flowing out. Tamaki, did you call the hospital?" Tamaki, nodded, eyes full of tears. He was holding Haruhi, who had tears streaming out of her eyes, not making a sound.

Hikaru took off his tux. "Use this." He told Kyoya, who took it and pressed it to her head. "I need you to cradle her head-it helps stop the bleeding." He told Hikaru, who did as Kyoya told him.

Kaoru gasped. "Gabriel." He said, sounding extremely worried. Everyone stared at him. "Whoever did this to Abigail probably did this to Gabriel to. We have to help her!" He said, sounding strained. "Come on! Hurry!"

Kyoya didn't hesitate. "Hikaru, can cradle her head and keep the cloth pressed to it at the same time?" Cheeks tear stained, Hikaru nodded silently. "Good. Tamaki, Mori, and Honey, stay with Hikaru and Abigail in case whoever did this comes back. Kaoru, Haruhi, you come with me." The three set off, running at full speed.

They looked in all the parking lots. But, no matter where they looked, and they looked everywhere, they couldn't find the blue-eyed girl. Gabriel was gone.

Ok, that was 11 pages of me writing, so I hope that makes up for not updating in so long. I'll try to remember to update sooner. Review pwease! x3
