_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

School Morning, Haruhi was still not feeling well. But an arguement had arose in the Fujioka household, the night before, when she woke up. Once Hikaru dropped her off. But that wasn't much part in the arguement. Haruhi now disliked her father's current dicisions and tried to figure what to do next.

Arguement night Before. 11 PM :

(( note : dont know Haruhi's full name but I made up her random middle name. so bear with me ))

" Haruhi, what were you doing out this late? You look like you were attacked too. What did those men do to you?? " Her father shot 900 questions. Haruhi sighed.

" They did nothing. Remember? Hikaru warned you about the gang activities Dad. Not like it matters. I came back fine, didn't I? " Haruhi replied sternly.

Her father gasped. " What happens when you don't come home safely Haruhi? That makes me concerned. " Her father cried.

Haruhi's sweat dropped. " Don't worry much about that. I'm always with one of the male gang members and so I got back up, I am fine dad. Really. " She sighed again.

Ranka smiled " If you say so.. Hey Haruhi? I want to run you by something, something that might change your life a little. " Ranka said nerviously.

Haruhi quirked a brow. " What is it dad?.. " Haruhi felt nervous too. She doesn't mind changes but the changes her father makes.. aren't so nice.

Ranka started. " Well.. you see deary. Daddy found a lady he really really likes. And asked to marry her. Which she accepted. And of coarse, she has the bigger home and wants us to move there.. And such. Reason why I wish for both you and me to go there, is to get you away from this crime filled town, those obnoxious twins and those violent gangs. Plus I am very sure you will like -- " Ranka was cut off.

Haruhi both hands on the table, anger rising ever so slowly. " I will not move. I will not leave my friends. And I will definetly NOT ever see this woman. Dad how could you!? Your replacing my mother! With some.. some person I never met and you already asked to marry her! " Haruhi yelled. Fear, Anxiety and well slight discomfort from the wounds she recieved earlier that night, from the fight.

Ranka frowned. " Haruhi Caroline Fujioka! I will not tolerate this. You're coming wether you want a new mother or not. I don't care if your not ready. Its time I pushed you in that direction! You will like Miss Leandra. So please sit down. I think it is time to get some rest,and by the way.. I will be home late tommorrow, so just prepare some stuff for yourself.. and don't overdo it. Your hurt and sick. Anyhoo. Good Night!" Ranka changed the entire subject and fled from the room.

Haruhi sat down on the couch, fuming. H-how could he?! Mother! I can't ever replace you. I can't leave this town... I love the people here too much... Haruhi burst into a onslaught of tears. And slowly lulled to sleep, where she had a peaceful dream.

Haruhi's Dream.

A red head male stood beside her. Looking over the star lit sky. It was Hikaru. Haruhi watched the dream unfold, where herself and Hikaru were. He was smiling. And so was she. Haruhi sat from a distance and watched it. It was somewhat.. heart warming. There faces got closer and closer and closer until--

End Dream

Haruhi woke up awake, blush on her cheeks, both from fever and well shock and many other emotions. Haruhi sighed. Her heart rate slowing. She's been having weird dreams, often to do with Hikaru. She made the conclusion that she fell for the emotionless - easily angered boy. Sighing, she stared at the clock and devised a simple plan. To escape her father. He was at work. So She had enough time.

Going into the washroom and got ready, ate breakfast and went through her closet and took out a bag. She packed it with some clothes, medicines, personal belongings, a few memorials of her mother and her photo, her cell phone, her wallet filled with money, her i.d., birth certificate etc. and a couple of weapons, that the twins had given her, when she needed to protect herself. She also took out a small easy to set up tent. She sighed. Walking towards the door of the house. She stood in front of it. Looking back at the house. She smirked. " Good Bye Home.. Dad, enjoy your life with your new wife. Get some kids outta her. Obviously my opinion never mattered to you. " Haruhi opened the door and slammed it shut. She did however leave a note for her father, to let him now to go by himself.

--

Hikaru and Kaoru sat in class. Bored like hell. Kaoru collected Haruhi's Homework, while Hikaru stared out a window. Thinking about his dreams. ( somewhat similar to Haruhi's! ) Hikaru stared at the dark approaching clouds. Forecast for today : Thunderstorms. Last block class ended, and there was no gang or other activities, so Hikaru and Kaoru left. Taking a different route home. It lead down by different fields and stuff. They walked awhile down the road and spotted a small green tent with a person inside. Hikaru and Kaoru smirked and snuck up on the tent, hearing a voice of a female. Hikaru and Kaoru shook the net which earned a suddle yelp from the girl inside. Haruhi who was inside, ( not to the twins knowledge yet) She grabbed a knife and got out of the tent. To her suddle surprise. It was the twins. Hikaru and Kaoru were looking at her in disbelief. " Haruhi? What the hell are you doing in a tent? " Kaoru asked ironically. Haruhi laughed nerviously. " Um..... Long story... " Her voice was still weak, cause she was still sick. Hikaru sighed. " Your still sick and you go out in a tent when its suppose to rain? Smart Haruhi. Smart. This better be a darn good reason. " Hikaru explained. Haruhi sighed. " Okay okay, I will tell you. "

Haruhi explained to them. About her and her father's conversation and explained the fact that her real mother was dead from long ago. --

" And thats why I ran off, basically telling him to go live his life without me and I went out here and set up a tent to live in for the time being. " Haruhi finished her entire explaination. Just then a low rumble sounded in the sky. Haruhi flinched immediately glaring wide eyed at the sky. Kaoru and Hikaru took down her tent already. " What are you guys doing?? I need that up you know. Its my house right now. " Haruhi panicked. She NEEDED to get inside something. Hikaru and Kaoru grabbed her by her wrists and dragged her along to there home. Haruhi, being dragged along was very confused. " Where are you taking me? " She asked in a calm matter. Hikaru was the one who replied. " To our house. You can't live outside here Haruhi. So we will take care of you instead. And if your father comes looking, well excuses are wonderful. " He explained naturally. A flash showed in the sky and Haruhi had slight goosebumps and jumped slightly. Hikaru and Kaoru turned back to the frightened and silent girl. The thunder sounded in the sky and Haruhi was bitting her lip, and Hikaru and Kaoru noticed it too. ( Nothing gets past them, ne? ) Kaoru sighed. " Haruhi, are you afraid of thunder and Lightning? " More lightning flashed and it cracked loudly. Haruhi whimpered at it. Hikaru and Kaoru exchanged glances and took Haruhi through another route to there house in the 10 minutes they were lucky no rain or lightning were seen. Until they got in the house. When they were inside, it started to rain heavily and such. Haruhi sighed in slight relief. Haruhi remembered the slight maze the Hitachiin Mansion was. Turning to Hikaru and Kaoru. She looked at the ground. " Are you really sure I can stay here? I dont wish to be a burden." Haruhi questioned. Kaoru laughed lightly. " Burden? Your no burden Haru-chan. Your actually a breather. Hikaru barely gets to show others here any emotions, time he learned. " Kaoru nudged Hikaru playfully. Hikaru looked away for a moment. Found a pillow and whacked Kaoru with it. Got to love the convience of pillows when you need them! Haruhi giggled. Hikaru took Haruhi's hand and led her to her room. Arriving at her room, the lightning got worse slightly and Haruhi jumped a little. Haruhi entered the room and smiled nerviously at Hikaru. " Arigato Hikaru. I think I'm gonna go to sleep. I had a long day and all, thank you! " Haruhi tried to speak normal as possible. Hikaru placed his foot on the closing door. Haruhi looked at him confused. Hikaru had a worried glance in his eyes. " Haruhi. Mine and Kaoru's room are on both sides of this guest room. Mine is with the blue sign and Kaoru's is orange. Just get us if you need us. And Haruhi? " Haruhi nodded. Hikaru spoke again, coming closer to her. " If something bother's you. Don't be afraid to tell me or my brother. We are here for you, Because you opened the doors to our world. And you are still. We should be the one's thanking you. Other than Clarissa, no one could really tell us apart if we wore the same stuff. " Hikaru smiled. And kissed her forehead. Causing Haruhi to blush really red. Hikaru was blushing too, and waved good night. The storm had stopped. For now. More were forecasted to come. Some worse than others. Yet it was only 5 pm.

( A/N : Hahahahaha they are idiots in love yet to not notice hours. :3 Warning : Next part or part after, Haruhi may seem emo-ish.. I dunno why. I just love adding as much drama and comfort moments cause that makes the people closer ne?)

Clarissa entered the Hitachiin Mansion, greeted by a few maids and butlers and tackled by Kaoru. " Hey! How's a going ?" Kaoru smiled sheepishly at his girlfriend. Clarissa gave him a quick peck on the lips which sent him in a happy mood. She smiled. " Going good. I got your text, what's up? " She held out her phone and he looked the message and nodded. " Yeah. Well when me and Hikaru were walking back, Haruhi was trying to live in a tent in the fields nearby here, and we are to hide her from her father or she gets taken away from us. Then my brother, will return to be more emotionless. You won't have a best buddy. and I wont have someone to tell all of Hikaru's funny memories to! " Kaoru whined. He got something thrown at the back of his head. " OW WHAT THE F- Oh! Hi Hikaru.. hehe " Kaoru began backing away slowly. Hikaru smirked. " Tell her all of my funny childhood stories eh? Mind telling me HOW many you have told her, little brother? " Hikaru looked very dangerous, yet funny. This was sibling rivalry. Clarissa couldn't help but break out laughing, falling to the floor and her stomach hurting. Hikaru smiled at his friend. " Clarissa, I will email you later of all Kaoru's famous moments, no one can forget. I'm going to go do something. So.. do whatever with your girlfriend Kaoru. I will have my revenge. " He added a funny tone to his voice for the word revenge. Which Kaoru nearly died laughing at. Hikaru walking up the stairs of the extremely large mansion, leaving Kaoru and Clarissa downstairs. The two teens sat down.

" Clarissa, you okay today?It looks like your having a lot of flashbacks.. You know, I still don't know much on your past and all, But when it bugs you, it bugs me. Cause your sad. So I'm here, whenever you wanna talk about it. " Kaoru explained calmly. Smiling lightly. Clarissa sighed and looked down at the floor. " I guess it's about time I told you huh? " She sighed again. Kaoru gave her all of his attention. Clarissa began to speak. " Before you found me, 2 years ago in that alley from what happened then. My life was a total hell. My parents, as of this day. Is there death anniversary. They both died in a drunk driver car crash, when I was 8. Then that's when I went to live with my abusive uncle and he ditched me at all sorts of places just to get money. He would sometimes strike me if I didn't obey certain things. Then he left me in that alley when I was 13. That was just horrific. You showed up. And beat that guy up for me.. I still don't know how to thank you for that Kaoru. If you didn't come.. It would -w-would have be-been much worse. " Clarissa was breaking into tears. Kaoru pulled her into a strong hug. " It's all right Clarissa. Your here now. Your alive, unharmed and in my arms, safe. And that's all I could have ever asked for from you. Just to be safe and sound. " He whispered into her hair. They sat there, watching the clouds change sizes and so such. Later left from the living room, down to the basement, and began to watch any movie Clarissa would want. Which were common Romance - Comedies. Which she got Kaoru hooked on. And they watched Romance -Comedies before they were a couple. Which made Hikaru think Kaoru was gay at some point. But then Kaoru confessed to Clarissa and they got together, so to Hikaru's relief. His younger twin brother wasn't gay. Good.

-- (( Warning again : Haruhi has swift mood change. So --... like said before. Heads up. it starts here, so if you wanna skip I notified where you can start reading again. ))

Haruhi sat in her dark room quiet. There was a door leading to her own bathroom. She had a walk - in closet and her room were close by the twins. Her mood dark and twisted she walked into the clean white bathroom. Taking a brief shower. And putting on a pair of black and pink Pyjamas. In the small cabinet drawer, she saw razors. Separating a long piece from one, she stared at it in wonder. Putting it in her pocket she sighed. She will NOT go there... would she? Turning the lights out in the bathroom. She sat on her bed again, pulling out her belongings. A few photo's of her mother. And 1 photo of her father. She glared at the picture long and hard. But didn't have the heart to rip the paper to shreds. She hid the picture of her father, at the bottom of the box. And skimmed through her photo album of her friends and memories. But nothing was lifting her mood. Getting up and walking towards the large window, she stood there briefly moving the curtains aside. To see dark clouds bubbling a bit. It was 11 pm and still warm out. Haruhi closed the curtains immediately and went into bathroom. Sitting in the bathtub she stared at the glass patterns. Taking the razor out of her pocket. She stared at it again. It made a little cut on her pointer finger and she stared at the blood that rolled down and hit the white porcelain tub. She stared at her pale skin and the dark red blood. She lifted the razor over to her wrist and nicked it with the razor a few times. Blood, flowing down like water hit the white tub. Haruhi kept nicking at other parts of her body. That she could cover. If the twins saw or see the blood, they would freak. Haruhi had nicked at her legs, a few at her wrists, and tad around her ankle area. She sat in a pool of her own blood. Staring at what she had just done. She panicked. But calmed. She nicked a little again and the puddle of blood grew and grew. Satified she stopped and covered the razor with some tissue and threw it out. Washing out the tub and covering her wounds with a bit of ointment she sat back in her bed.

She sat there. It was 1 am. And the lightning flashed. Haruhi jumped a bit. She took a photo of her mother and stared at it. She took a blanket and put it over her head. Sobbing. " Gomenasai mother! Gomenasai! Why did.. why did dad have to leave me in the dust?.. Why... " She cried harder and the lightning flashed and thunder roared. She held onto a pillow, trying to muffle her own cries.

-- ( Note : Angsty moments of Haruhi's emo - ness is done. )

Hikaru heard silent whimpers and sobs from the room next door. He got up off his bed and walked to Haruhi's room. Opening the door, she saw a heap under a bunch of blankets shaking and the whimpers and sobs were coming from. Hikaru approached to the bed side and pulled the covers from Haruhi. She was crying. A lot too. Whispering random words. She felt the cold air and looked up to see Hikaru. Tears still brimming down from her eyes. She looked down again. Hikaru, just sat down beside her. And pulled her close. Haruhi just sat there. Semi- calm. Semi- freaked out. " How long have you been crying Haruhi? " Hikaru questioned. Haruhi stared at the floor and gave no reply. Hikaru just held her tighter. " Long time huh?.. Do you want to tell me why?.. " Hikaru whispered. Haruhi hiccuped. " I miss her.. He was replacing h-her. And t-taking me away from you g-guys.... " Haruhi replied ever so quietly. Hikaru sighed. " If he took you, I would have came and got you. " Hikaru whispered. Haruhi cried harder. Hugging him tightly. Letting go after a while she sat there. Hikaru sat there with her. " Feeling better? " He questioned. Haruhi nodded. " Y-yeah. A bit. " She replied. Hikaru looked down and saw a little cut mark that started on the side of her ankle. Haruhi noticed and pulled her leg into her. Hikaru sat there puzzled. " Haruhi? There is no way, you got that from a gang fight. Let me see it. " he replied sternly. Haruhi flinched and shook her head. " No.. It's fine Hikaru. Really. " Haruhi replied. Hikaru only sighed. Haruhi felt a little relieved when he got up. But he headed to her personal bathroom and all alarms went off in her head. Hikaru looked in the trash and saw something red, but covered in tissues. Picking it up and unwrapping, he saw a razor. His eyes widened in shock and terror. Wrapping it back up again. He spun back around and walked up to Haruhi. Leaning over her. Causing her to fall onto her back and laying on the bed. He went and got ontop of her. So she couldn't escape. He needed to confront her. For what she did.

" Care to explain why you were cutting yourself my dear? " Hikaru spoke sarcastically.

Haruhi's Bangs hide her eyes a little but there were definetly tears coming out again.

Hikaru frowned. And leaned closer to her face to get her attention at least.

Haruhi just looked at him wide eyed. " I-I-I dont know. Hikaru. I dont. J-just.." She stuttered. Hikaru glared slightly.

" What the hell are you thinking Haruhi? You want to know how god damn scared I am? If your hurting yourself, and drawing blood, I am afraid your gonna go off and kill yourself! That's what's scaring me! If you were that damn depressed, I told you. Earlier today, that if you needed to talk, Kaoru and I are here for you! Haruhi.. " Hikaru yelled. But voice softened when he said her name. Hikaru got up off from pinning her down and sat there, bangs covering his eyes. He did not want to show her, what emotions he had at that moment. Haruhi sat up and looked at Hikaru then down at her hands. " Gomen.. Hikaru.. I am really sorry.. I just.. I dont know. It just went too fast and I guess I just lost it.. And - and Im sorry for scaring you Hikaru.. I just didn't think anyone would care that much. My dad is gone to live with some tramp he met at the bar and gonna marry. Leaving me out. My family is far away and my mother is dead.. So I just thought.. that I was alone..... " She bursted into tears again. She felt a pair of strong arms pull her close. " Your not alone. You aren't. I am here. I am here for you Haruhi. I care. I care a lot... " Hikaru whispered. She felt something wet hit her shoulder. He was crying. Crying for her. She hugged him tighter. " Arigato Hikaru.. " She whispered. The two let go and sat there for a moment. Hikaru wiped the tears off her face, and wiped his own. " Um.. may I see your cuts for a moment Haruhi? " He asked nerviously. Haruhi only nodded. Hikaru pulled up the sleeve on her right wrist. Then checked her ankles and her calf leg on her left. " These will heal.. Not to worry. Just never do that again Haruhi. Promise me that, okay? " Hikaru had his hands on her shoulders now. Desperation in his eyes. Haruhi stared at him in shock. He was never this emotional. NEVER. Haruhi only nodded and Hikaru had a sigh of relief. " Lets get you cleaned up and wrap you in bandages. " Dragging her to the bathroom, getting her some spare clothes and she was back on her bed again. Hikaru was about to go. But Haruhi grabbed him. " C-can you stay for one night..? " Haruhi whispered. Hikaru looked at her in surprise but only nodded. Going down and sitting beside her on the bed. Both laying there and getting ready to sleep. Haruhi asked a question.

" Hikaru? Why do you care so much? " Haruhi asked curiously.

Hikaru's cheeks were a little pink at this. " Because. You became an important person to me. The day I met you, you came into mine and my brother's world. Joining with Clarissa. The people, who care about us. We care about them most. Kaoru cares greatly for you and Clarissa. I care a lot for you. And Clarissa as well. But Kaoru helps Clarissa, more while I tend to help you more.. You know? " He explained quietly staring at the ceiling. Haruhi smiled.

" Thank you Hikaru. I care a lot for you too. " Haruhi whispered leaning in her head on his shoulder. She fell asleep and was snoozing away. Hikaru sat there half way awake.

" I wish you knew, how much I love you Haruhi.. and I will tell you one day.. just wait for me.. " Hikaru whispered into the sleeping girls hair.

Soon falling asleep.

--

Kaoru and Clarissa looked into Haruhi's room. Seeing both Hikaru and Haruhi in the same bed. ( both clothes on I tell you. )

Kaoru and Clarissa smirked evilly. Kaoru took many pictures and left. And showed Clarissa.

" Ha. Now Hikaru wants to hit me with stuff. I can black mail him! " Kaoru jumped with glee. Little did he know. There was his twin behind him.

He turned around slowly to see an evil Hikaru. Kaoru gulped. " I- I was kidding? " He said nerviously. Hikaru's eyes glinted. And grunted. " 5 seconds. "

Kaoru gasped. " Hikaru you wouldn't "

" 4"

" Common Hikaru, lets just talk this --"

"3"

" Hikaru, my brother please dont do this"

" 2"

" Wait wait wait!"

" 1"

Kaoru ran off like light.

" 0"

Hikaru sped after him and screaming could be heard.

" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SOMEONE HELP ME! " Kaoru screamed. It was muffled and Hikaru came down the hall soon after. Clarissa gave him the camera automatically. " Thank you Clarissa. If you want to find Kaoru. I locked him inside the higher cabinet. His screaming should be enough to find him.

Hikaru walked back into Haruhi's room. She was still asleep. Hikaru smiling slightly, got back in the bed and went back to sleep.
