Damn...looking back at this story... Now I know why it's so important to proof-read before you upload...
Oh well, I've been editing this for a while now, might as well post it.

Tadashi blinked at Haruhi with a confused look on his face. He thought for a moment if he hadn't heard her right, then began to speak. "What do you mean he told you not to? It's a doll, it can't talk." He said, raising an eyebrow at her.
Haruhi tried keeping in a small laugh "After all of that, you still won't listen to me about him not being a doll?"
"Fair enough, but that doesn't change the fact that it's still a doll." he said in a low grumble, rolling his eyes.
Haruhi sighed "You just don't get it, do you?"
"Then why dont you tell me what's going on?"
"Because Tsumi-kun told me not to." she repeated, saying it a little bit more slowly than the first time.
Tadashi left the room, leaving Haruhi standing alone, bewildered. She watched him as he picked up the telephone. He dialed the number and waited for an anwer.
"Hello?" answered a cheery voice, "May I know who is speaking?"
"Ranka-papa?" Tadashi asked. Haruhi's eyes went wide, and her heart nearly skipped a beat. "Yeah, this is Tadashi. I just wanted to know if Haruhi's perscribed to any other medi-"
It was at that moment that Haruhi ran from her room, pushed Tadashi on the ground with a thud and hung up the phone. She put Tsumibito on the table and knelt down beside him and grabbed him by the collar. "What do you think you're doing?" she hissed, a hint of murder in her voice.
"You know Haruhi, sometimes when a person is on multiple medication's at once, their mind gets a little-"
"Well I'm not!" she interrupted.
"You know, I kind of like you being this close to me ." he said, his breath tickling her ear.
She immediately let him go and went back to her room. She slammed the door shut and Tadashi could hear the faint "click" of her locking the door. He stayed on the ground, looking at all of the pictures in the living room.
Haruhi coming back from the hospital.
Haruhi when she was a baby.
Kotoko, Ranka and Haruhi outside in the snow.
Kotoko and Ranka on their wedding day.
He then saw the Fujioka family crest, but did not linger on with looking at it for too long. He got up and walked to Haruhi's door, knocking softly.
"I'll always love you no matter what." he said quietly.
"Shut up." she grumbled. The both of them heard someone knock at the front door. Haruhi unlocked her own door and rushed to find out who their visitor was. "Who is it?" she asked when she was near the door."
"Um..er.. Either of you two speak Japanese?" she heard Harry's voice say quietly. She opened the door and gave him a tight hug.
"Ahem," George coughed, Harry turned around, glaring at him.
"Ah, hello there!" Haruhi said, slightly getting out of Harry's grip. She bowed to them and introduced herself. ''My name is Haruhi Fujioka, you two must be friends of Harry."
"Well well well, Harry, who might this pretty young lady be?" Fred asked
"You two know that's she's my girlfriend." Harry groaned, rolling his eyes in frustration.
"Surely he's lying, you're way out his league." George stated.
"Yes, I am Harry's girlfriend." she laughed. The two of them each took one of her hands and kissed it lightly.
"My name is Fred Weasley." Fred told her with a smile
"And I'm George. It's a pleasure to meet you, Fujioka-san."
Harry twitched when he saw them kiss her hand, but shook it off. He knew they didn't mean any harm. "Haruhi, these two are the elder brother's of my best mate, Ron Weasley."
"Would you two like to come inside for some tea?" she asked politely. "I'm sure my cousin, Tadashi, would be very excited to meet you two." she said, emphasizing loudly on the last part so Tadashi could hear. He emerged from behind her and stared at the twins.
"They're like those loud ones from dinner last night." he snorted. Haruhi lightly hit him on the arm and glared at him. "What? It's true." he said, rubbing his arm. "Who are they?"
"Harry's best friend's elder brothers. Get along with them. They're twins, just like you and Kii-nii.
"Me and Kiyoshi aren't identical. Not even the slightest." he said. He stuck out his hand to Fred. "Ore-wa, Fujioka Tadashi-san."
"Ore-wa, Weasley Fred-san." Fred replied.
"Boku-wa , Wealey, George-san." George said simply.
"Yeah, okay. Can I leave now?" Tadashi asked Haruhi. "I have a feeling I'm not going to like them." Haruhi ignored his comment.
She looked at both of the brothers, "How did you two learn to speak Japanese?"
"We've watched anime on the computer of one of our mug-.. ahem, one of our friends." George said quickly
Haruhi looked surprised "You've learnt a whole language by watching animated cartoons online?" she asked. They nodded proudly "Why don't you three come in now? I'll go get started on some tea." She said, gesturing for them to come inside. They walked in, slipped their shoes off and looked around the apartment in wonder.
"It seems so peaceful." Fred said, poking the tatami-mat covered floor with his big toe. Haruhi twitched slightly when he said that Just wait for him to see the rest of the club here..
Tadashi let out a big yawn and stretched his arms above his head. He glanced at the clock quickly, 5:45. "When is Ranka-papa coming home?" he asked when she was in the kitchen.
"He's working the overnight shift, becuase he was supposed to yesterday but didn'?" she asked, getting out the teapot.
"Ranka-papa isn't home yet. I don't want you staying home alone again." he grumbled.
"I've been home alone at nights when Otou-san worked late before, Onii-chan. I think that I can handle it."
Tadashi frowned. The twins looked at Haruhi.
"Where does your dad work?" Fred asked
"He... He work's at a store. Sometimes doesn't come home because he has to work late hours.." She said "You guys can sit at the table if you want, I'm almost done."
Fred noticed Tsumibito on the table, and couldn't help but poke him.
"Aww it's so adorable." he crooned. George also joined in on doting on Tsumibito.
Haruhi looked back for a second, then smiled a bit "His name is Tsumibito."
"Hi there. My names Fred." Fred shook Tsumi-kuns hand that didn't have the cloth knife.
"And I'm George." George shook the other hand.
Tadashi and Harry raised an eyebrow. "How long are you two going to be in Japan?" Haruhi asked
"A while. We don't have to go back to England for a couple more weeks." the twins explained "A buddy of ours, Lee Jordan, he's been managing the store we own."
"What kind of store?" Haruhi asked
"It's a joke shop. We sell things like smoke bombs and candies that can get you out of school."
"Don't remind me," Harry groaned "All of those first years last year were vomiting for days."
"...You sold rotten candy?" Haruhi asked, slightly disappointed.
"Oh no, we made sweets that weren't bad for you, but could convince your teacher that you couldn't come to class." Fred explained "See, Hogwarts is a...boarding school. The professors wont allow you to skip class unless you're in the hospital wing, or for any other special case."
Haruhi wasn't that impressed with their answer, but decided it would be best to know more before judging "How were they not bad for you?"
The twins shot her a grin, their teeth gleaming. "It's a secret."
Haruhi let out a small laugh, then set the cups of tea on the table. "What happened?" Tadashi asked
"I don't know. It's a big secret.." She said, when she saw that he wasn't too pleased with her answer as well, she added "A secret, Onii-chan, as in I'm not supposed to know." Tadashi froze. How had she found out about the Elder's call? Akane and Ryuu left just minutes ago. It was at that moment that he glared at Tsumbito, who was sitting innocently on the table.
THE DOLL! IT'S A DOLL OF DEVIL'S WORK! THAT THING TOLD HER! he screamed in his head. He grabbed Tsumibito by the throat.
Haruhi quickly grabbed him from Tadashi's hands and shot him a nasty look. "Is there a problem?" For a moment, Tadashi could have sworn that his eyes flashed red stars, as if he was gloating.
"Taking that thing's fucking side instead of your own cousin..." he muttered. Haruhi punched his arm and glared at him. "Aw don't be like that Haruhi." he pleaded, giving her a slight peck on the cheek.
Harry had enough of that.
He smacked Tadashi on the head, took hold of Haruhi. Without warning, he threw her over his shoulder, and left the apartment without another word. He locked the door and put her on the ground. He put his head on her shoulder and took deep breaths. Haruhi wasn't overweight or anything, but he just wasn't used to carrying other people, and probably was only able to because of the adrenaline rush.
"Are you okay?" she asked quietly, putting her hand on his cheek. He nodded and gave her a quick kiss.
"I'm sorry." he said. "I'm really, really...sorry."
"I don't blame you..Onii-chan gets-"
"I know how "Onii-chan gets" Haruhi." He said blankly. "I wasn't sorry about leaving with you. For all I care that slimy git can.." Haruhi could hear him grumbling something about "Fluffy", "I was talking about where my hand was when I was carrying you."
