A/N: I'm back from the Alps! I visited Austria, Germany, Lichtenstein (the smallest freaking country - we spent an hour there), and Switzerland! Of course I caught bronchitis... But I survived! It was breathtaking. If you can ever go, DO! While overseas, I definitely did some writing, including a very steamy lemon for later on. I have also decided the direction of this story, and WHO Haruhi will end up with!
Thank you, my followers, for waiting patiently while I was away! I'll do my best to upload a bunch to make up for lost time! If you have any suggestions or requests, feel free to leave them in a review!
Chapter Five
Haruhi let go immediately. "So sorry, Tamaki-senpai!" Tamaki noticed that her eyes were wide, filled with panic. "You can go now… If you'll excuse me I have important business to attend to." Haruhi climbed into the closet and locked it, ignoring Tamaki's attempts to break open the door as he realized her fear of the thunder.
Finally, he stopped. "I get it now," He spoke softly. "You've always dealt with things on your own. You never had anyone to help you through things, to rely on when things got tough." Tamaki pressed his forehead to the door of the closet. "But I promise you, I will never let you be alone through difficult times again! So please, Haruhi, please come out."
The doors of the closet burst open and Haruhi jumped into Tamaki's arms, crying as the thunderstorm continued. Feeling Haruhi in his arms, and feeling the truth to his words, Tamaki realized that he wanted her. He wanted Haruhi to be his. He wanted to be the one to support her, not the host club. But none of that mattered right now. What mattered was helping Haruhi through the storm, and then tomorrow he would pursue his feelings for her.
His resolution to the story was a blindfold and headphones, to block out the sound and sight of the storm, which seemed to help. Until the other hosts came in and accused him of S&M play. Shell shocked, Tamaki watched as the twins took Haruhi away, and saw her believe that he had just been trying to fool around with her.
Hikaru and Kaoru brought Haruhi to their room. "We'll watch over you here so that the idiot boss doesn't try anything tonight."
Haruhi smiled. "Thank you. But…" Haruhi looked over. "There's only one bed in here. I don't mind sleeping on the floor though."
The twins looked aghast. "The floor?!" They exclaimed. "As if. You'll sleep on the bed Haruhi." Kaoru responded.
Shaking her head, Haruhi argued. "But it's your bed. The two of you should sleep on it. I refuse to let two of you sleep on the floor in your own room when there is a big bed."
Hikaru smiled evilly. "So it's a big bed?" Haruhi nodded. "And you absolutely refuse to let us sleep on the floor?" Haruhi nodded again.
Kaoru chuckled catching on to his brother's plan. "Well we absolutely refuse to let you sleep on the floor." The twins looked at Haruhi and said together, "Then it looks like the three of us will sleep in the bed together tonight!"
"W-w-what?" Haruhi stammered.
The three argued for a while, but the twins won, and the three of them got into bed together. It really was a big bed, plenty of room for all three of them. Then why, Haruhi wondered, am I sandwiched in between them?!
The twins, as well as the other host vying for Haruhi's love, had decided that they would do anything to make Haruhi love them. Especially if it was something… enjoyable.
Hikaru and Kaoru thought that was Tamaki's intention, and thought that two (or three in this case) could play at that game.
"You shouldn't worry about that beast of a President." Hikaru said, rubbing Haruhi's back gently.
"Yeah," Kaoru continued from the other side. "He was only trying to do something that would relax you, though I didn't think he was into that kind."
Haruhi sat up and turned to look at both brothers. "Something to relax me?" She asked.
Hikaru and Kaoru smirked. "I know it relaxes me, and everyone else who does it." Kaoru answered.
Haruhi sighed, frowning. "But what is it?" She demanded.
"Orgasm of course." Hikaru sat up and leaned in close to Haruhi, breathing into her ear, making her shiver. "Want to try?"
Haruhi's heart stopped. Orgasm? … Sex? … With Tamaki-senpai? With Hikaru or Kaoru? Haruhi was shocked. Furiously shaking her head, Haruhi got up from the bed and walked to the door. "No! Of course not!" She exclaimed. "How can the two of you talk about sex so casually? Especially at our age!" With that, she left, slamming the door behind her.
"Pfft." Kaoru chuckled, still laying down. "I love how her thoughts jumped straight to sex. Dirty Haruhi!"
Hikaru laughed along with Kaoru and laid down. Later, after Kaoru had fallen asleep, Hikaru stayed wide awake thinking about Haruhi. Specifically, about Haruhi and his brother. If it were any other girl, they would both flirt and see where things took them. But Haruhi was different, she was special. After all, they were all considering marrying her. And they couldn't both marry her after all. In this case, they wouldn't be able to share.
What'll I do if she picks Kaoru? Hikaru wondered. He wanted her to pick him. He could see a future with her, together as husband and wife. What'll I do if she picks me instead of Kaoru?
