Chapter 7: What's your issue?
"What do you think, Kaoru?"
"What...?" Kaoru turned, being pulled back to reality. His twin rolled his eyes, plopping down next to Kaoru on the couch.
"I said, 'Don't you think Haruhi would look adorable in this?' Well, what do you think?" Hikaru flourished a picture, holding it in front of Kaoru's face. On the paper was an image of a girl, scantily clad in a very revealing maid outfit. Kaoru sighed heavily, running a hand through his hair.
"That's...great. Good luck getting her to wear it though." he said, before resuming his previous position of staring at the door. The door that separated Kyoya and him...How long has it been anyway? What are they doing? Hikaru interrupted Kaoru's thoughts with a cough, crossing his arms and acting annoyed.
"I thought you'd show at least a little bit of interest..." he grumbled, refusing to look at his twin.
"Hikaru..." Kaoru started, annoyed. He turned to see a smile dancing on Hikaru's lips, causing his annoyance to rise.
"Stop being such an idiot. You know you'll never get her in that." He paused, looking over to Tamaki, who was obviously enjoying the bickering.
"Neither of you will." Kaoru added, rising from his seat.
"Where are you going?" Hikaru asked as Kaoru strolled to the door. Kaoru laughed, pausing as he turned to look at Hikaru and Tamaki.
"I'm going to go for a walk. Alone." He smiled, shoving his hands into his pockets, "Maybe you two can figure out a way to get Haruhi in that ridiculous costume."
He lifted his hand in a half-caring wave as he strolled out the door, leaving Hikaru and Tamaki stunned and shocked.
Finally some time to think. Kaoru sighed, walking slowly down the hallway. Where am I even going? Not that it matters, it's just a way to kill time. I wish they'd hurry up...Kaoru paused, closing his eyes. Calm down. Kyoya's probably bribing Haruhi into doing something ridiculous. He'll be done soon, then we can...Kaoru's face burned as he mentally kicked himself.
"God, you're such an idiot." He muttered to himself, snaking his way through the corridors. As he turned the corner, he saw a very determined Haruhi leave a seemingly empty classroom. What was she...is Kyoya...what were they...
"Haruhi," Kaoru called, a nervous smile on his face.
"Kyoya's in the room if you two need to talk." She replied, turning to leave.
"Why so hurried?" Kaoru asked, laughing. Haruhi sighed, a rueful smile playing at her lips.
"I have to go...well...distract your brother and Tamaki for a bit. So you can talk to Kyoya."
Laughs escaped Kaoru's lips as he ran a hand through his red hair, receiving confused and curious looks from Haruhi.
"Just...don't play maid." He said, calming himself down with an effort.
Haruhi gave him a crooked smile as she walked down the hallway towards the host club, laughing in spite of herself.
