Hikaru and Kaoru Experiment Chapter 5
I'm writing in first person now. So now we'll know what the character is thinking FULL TIME!
This story takes place with the events in chapter four, and three! Plus I decided to right in random moment of those chapters. so you get all the info. From all the character's point of view.
Haruhi.
I finally catch up to Kaoru, and try to ask him, what's going on.
"You wouldn't understand." Kaoru said as he made a sudden turn that threw me off balance. I tried to catch myself. But I hit something. Hard! Whatever is was, it knocked me down, and I think I knocked it down too. But as I started to get up, the hall lights came back on. Which didn't help in my situation. Because the collegian caused the magazine page to fly out of my hand. The darkness of the hall before, had made my eyes sensitive to the light. So I blindly searched the floor for that page. There was something on the ground in front of me, or someone more likely. My sight finally came back, and I discovered what had been blocking my way, and what must have knocked me down. Nikko! Nikko's friends helped her up.
I soon noticed the surprised look on her face, then i noticed the magazine page in her hand.
"Are you okay?" Asked Sakura as she, and Yuko helped her up. Nikko was too distracted by the page to answer Sakura's question. As I got to my feet, Kallen, and Rin gathered around Sakura, and Yuko, all staring at the magazine page. After about a minute of them looking at the page, they all looked at me simultaneously, then Nikko finally spoke.
"Haruhi! You naughty boy! I didn't know you where into his type of stuff!" She said as the other three stared in astonishment.
Damn I don't have time for this. I walked up to Nikko with my hand extended.
"Listen it's not what you think, I need that back so hand it over."
"Hmmm, Play Toy Magazine." Nikko said eyeing me suspiciously.
"Haruhi, what are you doing with this?" This is frustrating!!!
"That's not the point here! I need that back, so give it to me."
"Make me!" Ugh!!!
"I don't have time for this." I said to myself as I took a tight hold on Yuko's hand. I guess I wasn't thinking. That's a first! I quickly grabbed the page out of her hand.
"Owe!" Yuko said as she snatched her hand from mine.
"Haruhi what's wrong with you?!" Yelled Sakura. I don't have time for this! Shaking my head loose of all the frustrations that just happened, I ran down the hall checking as many doors as I could, looking for Hikaru and Kaoru.
Kaoru
"Hikaru! Wait, stop, please!" I yelled down the hall to my brother, pleading with him. But he ignores me, and runs into a nearby room. I quickly follow him inside. This room familiar to me, somehow. Maybe I've been in here once, with the lights on. I go into the room, I see Hikaru on his knee's at the window, with his head laid on the window seal. I think he's crying. I wanted to run to him, but then again, caution may be for the best. With the lights off, I noticed that the sun started to come out, and that the rain had slowed to light drizzle. The sun light, which was still only semi blocked by rain clouds, turned the dark room, from pitch black to black, and orange. I slowly walked over to Hikaru, unsure of what his reaction will be.
Hikaru
"Finally I'm alone" I say as I exit the dinning hall. I kept walking till I reached the window at the far end of the hall. The window that was unlocked, which might let more light in. I get to the window, and start to open it. But the moment I open it, a huge gust of wind came in, hitting me dead in my face. Fuck it! I took out the magazine, and stood as close to the window as I could get.
"Play toy magazine. The best one." I said as I went through the magazine.
I quickly, and automatically turn to my favorite page of the book. Satisfied I started smiling a smile of sheer pleasure.
But then I feel a pair of small warm hands on my shoulder, and I turned around startled. But I'm not sure what was scaring me more at the moment the fact that it could have been someone else, or the fact that it was actually Haruhi. But both of those anxieties were beaten out by the fact that Haruhi might figure me out. Shit, she could already tell me and Kaoru apart, what else could she know?! Or worse, find out? But even worse! I dropped the magazine. Fuck!
I don't think see noticed though, maybe I can grab it real quick?
"Haruhi!" I yelled surprised, trying to keep her attention from the magazine on the floor.
"Hey Hikaru, what are you doing out here…" Damn, she noticed the magazine. She started to bend down to get a better look. But I bumped into her, trying to get the magazine first. I accidentally Made her fall into the dark part of the hallway. She sat up, and stared at me on my knee's, as I stared back at her on the wall. We stayed like that for what seemed like forever.
Haruhi
"I'll be back in a few." I say walking away from Kyoya, and Hunny.
"Where are you going, Haru-chan?"
"The bathroom, don't worry I'll be back before my guest arrive." I say, mostly reinsuring Kyoya, who stared an unfamiliar look at me. It kind of scared me. So I hurried to the door.
"Is your brother going to be joining us too, Kaoru." I heard one of Hikaru, and guest ask.
"Um… Yeah in a minute." I noticed that he was watching the door as he answered. I looked at the door to see what he was looking at. But it was closed. I guess he was just starring.
"I'm surprised that Kyoya told you where to go." he said as he turned back to the girls. Just as I'm close to leaving out the door, Tamaki pops up in front of me.
"And where are you going?"
"Relax, I'm going to the bathroom."
"But we have guest! It's rude to leave them alone like that. I demand that you turn around right now, and treat our guests with the proper manners."
I swear sometimes I can't stand him!
"Okay, first of all, I don't have guest, because mine didn't arrive yet! And second of all I don't think anybody but YOU see a problem with me leaving, and frankly I don't care if you have a problem with it, so…"
Maybe I went a little over board… because Tamaki just stood there, silent! That's a first! But it kind of got weird so I walked around him, and out the door.
"I'll be back in a minute." I said as I went around him.
I was half way down the hall, and saw Hikaru down at the end. He was standing at a window, looking at something. More like reading something! Hikaru should know better than to hide books from me! The hall way was dark. It had started to rain earlier in the hour, and it got real bad, and it knocked the lights out in the hall, and some of the rooms, the dinning room not being included in these powerless rooms. This will be a great opportunity for me to sneak up on him! The hallway's are dark, and if I stand close enough to the wall he won't see me! I lean against the wall, and start creeping down the hall. Trying to keep my laughter to a soft giggle. So Hikaru wouldn't hear me.
Kaoru
"Is your brother going to be joining us too, Kaoru?" Kari asked.
"Um… yeah in a minute." I said as I watched Hikaru walk out the door. I noticed Haruhi was watching, and quickly turned back to the girls.
"I'm surprised that Kyoya told you where to go." I said, changing the subject.
"Well, yeah. I guess the moment the power went out, he let all the girls know to meet in the dinning hall."
"He must have some sort of generator." Takara said. I really didn't pay attention to the conversations. I drifted in and out of them. I couldn't help but think about Hikaru. How did he feel about me now? Was he ashamed? Would he even be able to make eye contact with me? I don't think I would be able to face him if it was just me, and him.
"Kaoru!"
"Huh?!" I said snapping out of my thoughts.
"Hey your brother's been gone a long time, should we go see what he's doing?" Kari suggested.
"Yeah, it's not the same without you two together!" Takara edged. I don't want to have to confront Hikaru just yet. But then again I don't want to confront him with other people watching.
"Okay I'll go get him." I say quickly as I got up, and headed towards the two large dinning room doors.
But Tamaki blocks my way, just before I'm out the door.
"And where are you going?" Tamaki said as he spread his arms wide, blocking the door. Fucking idiot!
"I'm going to get Hikaru." I said while trying to walk around him. But he moved when I moved.
"But it's rude to the gue-"
"The guest are asking me to go get Hikaru, so move aside boss." I maneuvered underneath his spread arms, and was out in the hall.
"Hey!" Tamaki yelled as I sprinted down the hall
"I'll be back boss." Tamaki didn't respond he closed the door. And I'm glad he did. The moment he did I stopped sprinting, and leaned against the wall. My heart was beating out of my chest. What would I even say to Hikaru when I saw him. Hey big brother sorry about going through your closet, and taking your magazine. I swear I was looking for a shirt to borrow!… wait, would Hikaru fall for that.
Kaoru's
IMAGINATION
Kaoru: Hey Hikaru, sorry about going through your stuff. I was looking for a shirt to borrow, and I found that magazine, and I decide to look through it. I hope you don't mind!
Hikaru: Sure! It's all good!
Kaoru's version of
REALITY
Kaoru: Hey Hikaru, sorry about going through your stuff. I was looking for a shirt to borrow, and I found that magazine, and I decide to look through it. I hope you don't mind!
Hikaru: What the fuck kind of excuse it that. All together you wasted three minutes of your life thinking of it!
Damn that seems more realistic than what I truly want to happen. I get to my feet, and continue down the hall. It has to happen.
"Can't keep the girls waiting." I say, trying to calm down, and get my mind off the situation. I get to my feet, and start walking.
Haruhi.
Hikaru was still reading, whatever it was he was reading, so he didn't notice me creeping up. I wanted to yell his name, and scare him, but I decide to go for a more, silent approach! I snuck up to him, and slowly, and quietly put my hands on his shoulder. He jumps scared, and turns toward me. I heard something drop, but I don't' pay attention to it.
"Haruhi!" He yelled surprised.
"Hey Hikaru, what are you doing out here…" I notice something in the windows light. It was on the ground. It looked like a book, but it was to soft looking to be a novel of some sort. Maybe a magazine?! As I bend down to see the cover, I'm suddenly knocked to the dark side of the hall. Hikaru had bumped into me knocking me back. It was obviously by accident, because he fell to the ground because he lost his balance. He was probably trying to get the magazine first! Him, and his brother amaze me. They are so sneaky! But that just makes it more fun to try to figger them out. He turned around toward me, after he had the magazine still in front of him. No one moved. Who could? We both had a lock on each other's eyes for what seemed like forever. There was definitely tension. Tension that lasted forever.
Hikaru
Haruhi finally broke the eye contact by getting to her feet. Which gave me the perfect opportunity to stuff the magazine into my uniform jacket.
"Hikaru what's gotten into you?"
"Nothing, it's that you scared me." I got to my feet, and started to back up towards the window. I turned towards the window and look out of it so I wouldn't have to look at her. I hear her soft footsteps as she slowly walks towards me.
"Are you okay Hikaru?" she asked as she got closer. I started fidgeting with my jacket trying to make sure the magazine wouldn't come out by accident or be seen.
"Yeah, what are you doing out here?" I said, trying to change the subject. "That coming from you, Hikaru, I was on my way to the bathroom, why are you out here?" Haruhi asked as she stood next to me.
"No reason I just wanted to think." WOW! I just wanted to think. Yeah she'll fall for that one!
"About what?" I didn't think about that part!
"Damn, you ask a lot of questions." I said still trying to change the subject.
I feel something being ripped from the inside of my jacket. I turned towards Haruhi surprised. I see she has the magazine in her hand. But she didn't look at it.
"What's this Hikaru?" she said playfully. "Your looking at dirty magazines are you?" she, still looking at me as she opened the magazine.
"Haruhi, stop, don't look at that!" I said as I quickly reach for the magazine, but she shifted her hand, and I ended up grabbing her wrist. That was good enough. I decided to pull her from out of the window's light. I quickly snatch the magazine out of her hand. The pages that were pulled out earlier fly out of the magazine. I let go of Haruhi's hand, and quickly reach down to pick them up. I stuff them back inside the magazine, and put the magazine in my uniform jacket. But it doesn't stay inside my jacket so I bend over trying to keep everything from spilling onto the floor. I hear Haruhi walk over towards me. She bends down next to me.
"Hikaru?" she said slowly. I can't take this anymore!
"Leave me alone!" I said as I got to my feet, and started running down the hall.
"Hikaru!" I heard her yell. But she doesn't come after me. That's good. I hear something slam against the wall. They sounded like double doors being forced opened. I didn't turn around. But then I hear another voice call my name.
"Hikaru!" It's Kaoru's voice. I can't face him now, not like this. I keep running, and turn the corner.
