I just got so bored after such a long period of not editing this chapter that i forgot if i ever finished editing it -.- whatever, if you guys spot anything you want me to change just tell me. Don't expect a speedy change though, you'll most likely have to wait a few weeks. There was also a little bit of trouble i had wit uploading. If any of you have ever tried to edit a story, but got the "Fanfiction Error Type 2" message then you know how frustrated I got -.- but fortunately the people who post in the forums on this site are GENIUSES :D Well, i hope you enjoy this chapter! It sure as hell took me a long time to finish editing...


After Haruhi had left Harry sighed and began to blush, his cheeks tingling a bit. He shook his head vigorously to calm himself down, and glanced at Hedwig's cage; the snowy-white owl was fast asleep. He said down at the table with a piece of parchment and a pen, and began to write.

Ron,

Wait 'till you come here for a visit, you'll get to meet my new girlfriend, Haruhi. She's beautiful, and she's the top in our class, and she's sweet. She's not the rich and snobby type, because well, she's not rich. She goes to Ouran on scholarship. Turns out we're also next-door neighbors! You might as well let it go with Snape, you know Malfoy and him are never gonna change. Did I mention that she's to pretend she's a boy at school? Apparently she broke an 8 million yen vase and has to pay it off by working as a boy in this club. I don't know the details, but apparently everyone else in the school thinks that she's a boy. So I can use magic? You sure? One hearing is enough for me, I've had it with Umbridge. You know here there's a pair of twins that are just like Fred and George? Always pulling pranks and things like that...only one of them nearly tried to kill me once, and the other's just...just... She's completely serious about all her studies, because when she's an adult she wants to be a lawyer. Hermione would love her. Tell everyone I said Hi.

-Harry

P.S. haven't seen any Nargles.

Harry thought for a moment if he mentioned Haruhi too much in there, then shook his head. He put the letter neatly in an envelope, wrote on the back Ronald Weaslely, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Gryffindor: boy's dormitory. He gently woke up Hedwig, gave her the letter and led her out of the window. In about fifteen seconds she was just a small, white blob flying farther and farther away. He closed the window, seeing as she wouldn't be home for hours. When he turned around, it had come to his attention that Fred and Geroge Weasley had made themselves at home on his couch.

"What are you guys doing here?" Harry asked "And please, don't Apparate into my house."

"We just thought we'd pop in Harry." Fred told him, looking around the apartment in wonder "Too see how you were doing here in good ol' Japan."

"Yeah. Not many people have been coming by the shop lately, since most of our customers are students." George said, picking up the telephone slowly and examining it with great care.

"So what's new with you Harry?" they asked in unison.

"You two just missed my girlfriend, but she lives right next door."

"Awww." the twins sung "Wittle Hawwy's got a girlfriend~"

"Shut it." Harry said "Hey, I bet she'd like to meet you two!" his heart skipped a beat at the thought of being able to see her again, after just confessing his love to her.

The twins grinned widely. "Three boys and one girl? Oh, Harry you naughty, naughty boy."

~ ~~ ~Haruhi's apartment~ ~ ~ ~~~ ~ ~ ~

"Yeah, Mom, you called?" Akane asked, her phone held up to her ear. "Uh-huh? No, Sango's being watched by Kiyoshi today. Excuse me guys, I'm going to be talking outside to my mom." she said, excusing herself outside. "What? Well, if Gorou Ojii-chan wants to talk to me, then put him on the phone." she said before closing the door gently.

"So.. how's life?" Ryuu asked, taking a sip of his tea. "Wish the tea was this good at the Mainhouse.." Tadashi nodded in agreement.

"Life is good." Haruhi said simply. "You?"

"Good."

"That's nice."

"Life's good for me, if anybody wants to know." Tadashi said angrily

Ryuu grunted at him, implying that he wasn't interested.

The three of them were silent for a minute, taking sips of their tea simultaneously. They heard Akane starting to yell at whoever she was talking to on the phone "What? You're joking! This is a cruel, sick joke!"

"Wonder what's going on.." Ryuu thought aloud.

"Maybe she got grounded?" Tadashi shrugged.

Akane burst through the door, biting her lip. She sat down and banged her hands on the table, trying to blow off steam. "The very damn nerve of those motherf-"

"Akane." Ryuu interrupted. "Calm down. What happened?"

"Th.. they want.. Haruhi to come.. to the Mainhouse..." the sputtered. Tadashi twitched.

"They WHAT?" he roared.

~ ~ ~ ~Harry's apartment~~~~

The three boys had heard screaming coming from Haruhi's home, so Harry immediately took back the offer of letting them see her.

"Blimey, is someone getting murdered in there?" Fred asked

"One of her cousins' is having a fit." Harry said, shaking his head disapprovingly.

"Maybe we should ask them to keep it down?" George suggested

"No, there's one guy there who's bigger than Krum, and I'm not in the mood to get beat up my first week here." Harry said, picturing Ryuu squishing him. "Besides, it's none of our business."

"Even if we didn't want to know, they aren't really giving us a choice now are they?" the twins said

"Look, judging by the way that they're yelling at each other, they don't exactly seem like the happiest people on Earth right now, so I think that it's safe to say that it's not a very good idea to get caught up in all of that. Besides, none of us speak Japanese, so we don't know what's going on anyway." Harry reasoned. The twins rolled their eyes. "But I really wish I knew what they were talking about."

The twins sighed. "Naive little Harry."

"What?"

"There's a reason why they call us wizards you know, and these things we have called wands, they aren't for hitting a piƱata." Fred grinned

"In fact, I don't even think you'd be able to open one up without inflicting damage onto your wand." George said, examining his wand carefully.

"But I'm underage." Harry said

"Yes, but I believe the Ministry said you were pardoned from this law for the time your here." George said "Now get out your wand."

"I said, no."

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Haruhi's place~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~

"Tadashi! Don't say things just because you can't control your emotions!" Ryuu yelled

"Shut up! You don't have to watch Akane go through years of mental torture! Do you know what that's gonna be like? No, YOU get to see her go and get married!" Tadashi yelled back at him. Both of them were standing in front of each other, ready to fight. Haruhi watched with wide eyes as the two of them had their argument. She quickly glanced at Akane, who was clearly upset by her getting in the middle of this. Tadashi clenched his fist

"Onii-chan...you have to calm down." Haruhi said. She put a hand on his shoulder reassuringly.

"Ryuu, we should leave now." Akane said quietly, grabbing her cell-phone from the table. Ryuu nodded. He looked at Tadashi

"It was gonna happen eventually you know."

There was silence. After a few moments, Akane and Haruhi found themselves staring in shock as Tadashi cursed furiosly at Ryuu, who left the apartment without another word. Akane rushed behind him, waving Haruhi a quick goodbye. After she closed the door, she slapped Ryuu on the cheek, leaving a red mark.

"A little sympathy for her is all you needed to show! You can't even manage that?"

He looked away from her, turning to the stairs "You didn't have to announce it like that. Now Haruhi knows that something's going to happen." he said in a low voice.

Akane sighed "Ryuu.. I know that you're upset about this too, and-."

He began walking down the stairs. "Let's leave, we should let Tadashi cool down." he scoffed.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~Harry's place~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ ~

"Look, the yelling stopped." Harry pointed out

"But there's still someone crying." George said, putting his ear up against the wall that separated Haruhi and Harry's apartment "Teenage boy..." he told them.

"That's probably one of the cousins I met. He's 17." Harry said

"You think we should ask what's wrong? I mean, Harry is her boyfriend..." Fred suggested, looking at his brother.

"I dunno...he doesn't like me too much." Harry frowned

"And why is that?" the twins asked

"Because I'm her lover, and-"

The twins gasped before he could finish. "We know where this is going! Harry, you're a woman stealer!"

"What? I had her first!"

"Yes, but you've known her for three days." George pointed out. "I bet that you can't even name her favorite color."

"And there's a chance they USED to have something going on between them." the two of them smirked

"They're cousins!"

"So?"

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~Haruhi's place~~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Tadashi was breathing heavily. Haruhi put a hand on his shoulder and he looked at her with a disheartened look on his face. "I'm sorry. That was uncalled for."

"Onii-chan..."

"I wont let anything happen to you." he whispered and took hold of her hand "I promise you, I'll keep you safe, as much as I can."

"Onii-chan what's gonna happen to me?"

"I can't tell you!" he cried, hugging her.

"Onii-chan...too much pressure." she sputtered

"Hmm... it's pretty warm.." he said, still breathing heavily.

"You were just screaming like bloody murder, and now you're complaining about how my forehead is just a little bit warm?"

"Not now Haruhi, you're getting a cold. Go to bed." he said, putting a hand on her shoulder. When she didn't move, he swung her over his shoulder and walked to her room.

"H-hey! That's foul play! Let me down!" she cried, kicking and punching him like a child. He sighed and set her down in the futon. "I'm not a child." she stated "I can take care of myself, thank you very much."

He noticed Tsumibito form the corner of his eye and put him face-down on top of the drawer. Haruhi frowned "Put him back up."

"Chill out. As previously stated, he's just a doll."

"Using the term "he" means that you acknowledge him as another being, instead of an inanimate object."

"Haruhi..." Tadashi said " How come you're so partial to-"

"Because I am." she hissed. Tadashi raised an eyebrow, and sat beside her on the bed. "This discussion is over." she said, wrapping herself under the covers. "He's not.. he's.. just not..."

"You're too old to be obsessed with this."

She turned to him, looking him sternly in the eyes. "This discussion is over." she said.

Tadashi looked down sadly, then sat next to Haruhi on the futon. They both sat in silence. Haruhi, because she was obviously very irritated. Tadashi, because he was getting slightly annoyed as well. It was then that the lights began to flicker, and after a few moments, they feebly went out with a small "bzzt". "Haruhi?" Tadashi asked.

"Let it pass." she said weakly, her voice sounding strained. "It always does... eventually."

"Always?"

"This... has been happening more frequently... It all started just a few weeks ago."

Tadashi gulped, "Have you seen... any of them?"

When Haruhi didn't answer, he spoke to her again. "Can you.. handle a katana, or sword of any form?"

"I'm.. better with long needles and kunai..But decently enough, yes."

Tadashi's heart began to beat faster, he began to feel very clausterphobic in the dark.

"And you're sure none of your friends know about it?"

"I'm positive. Watanabe-sensei always told me, never to reveal family secrets to outsiders." she assured him, "It all seems... macabre when you're too young to know." she added. "All of these secrets, I just don't like it."

"You know, Haruhi... You shouldn't be too excited to learn some things. People are tortured for information, sometimes to their death. Information is deadly." He added, thinking back to Akane's phone call with the main-house earlier. Decided to change the subject, "Where do you guys keep the weapons?"

"Hidden."

"Where?"

"I can't say."

"And why is that?"

A sudden, unnerving chill went down their spines; causing the both of the to shiver. The felt an uncomfortable, prickling sensation which made them squirm just a bit. All was silent. The lights flickered back on. To their surprise, Haruhi was sitting on Tadashi's lap, and Tadashi, was sitting criss-cross ontop of the dresser. "What the.. hell?" he asked, looking around. Carefully, he put his arms under her legs and lifted her up. Haruhi was hanging on to Tadashi as he jumped off of the dresser. She could see Tsumibito from the corner of her eye, and couldn't help but be just a little bit suspicious.

He was still holding her in his arms, he slowly put Haruhi on the ground. The moment her foot touched the floor the lights went out. He immediately lifted her up once more. He felt the same chill go down his spine, and then the lights went back on. To his dismay, he was-yet again-sitting on the dresser with Haruhi in his lap. "This is complete bull..." She nodded in agreement, but he couldn't tell because he was unable to see anything. He put his hand on his side, accidentally squeezing Tsumibito's head. "Here, take it." he grumbled, handing Tsumibito to Haruhi, who let out a small squeal of pure delight.

He helped Haruhi onto the ground and slid off after she was safely down, and shocked to find that the lights had decided to turn on, yet again. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Haruhi gently smoothing out the cloth on Tsumibito's head "Okay, that's not even funny. What's the deal here?"

"About what?"

"Why is it that when I hand that doll to you and we get down, the lights turn on?"

"I tried to tell you that he wasn't just a doll, but you wouldn't listen." she snapped fiercly.

"Well I'm listening now, so will you tell me what's up with the doll?" he asked "Please?"

"I can't."

Tadashi twitched "And why is that?" he said, annoyed.

"Because... Tsumi-kun told me not to." she said, giving him a small grin.


Um... hi? Alot of you guys said that you'd like Haruhi to be less OOC, so I tried. It's not one of my strong points about writing, so I probably failed :P Anywho's...

So tell me... did you make boob tape something that comes up in normal conversation?
