Pairing: Haruhi x Kaoru

"Kaoru, stop running so fast," Haruhi panted, leaning on a tree to catch her breath.

"Sorry Haruhi," Kaoru apologized. "I might have gotten carried away."

"How could you get carried away?!" Haruhi rolled her eyes. "We're playing tag!"

"Well it's a very intense game," he pouted, sitting down next to her.

"How?" Haruhi asked skeptically.

"Emotionally," Kaoru sighed.

"But how?!" she repeated.

"What if you don't catch me?" Kaoru retorted.

"I will always catch you," Haruhi smiled.

"I hope so," Kaoru returned the smile, his eyes twinkling.
