I have no idea how to play Rich Man, Poor Man.

Disclaimer: Well it looks like I need to do some butt-kissing to let the creators give me rights to Ouran and Furuba. I'm on it!

O.O

"Rich man, Poor man?" Tamaki said. The name was familiar, but he couldn't remember why. "Rich man. Poor man," He put his thin hands up to his face and stroked.

"Where have I heard that before?" Tamaki continued his thinking while Kyoya simply stared. Finally, Kyoya spoke up and said, "I won against you and Haruhi," Tamaki's eyes widened and his mouth hung open.

"Never speak of that moment mother!" Tamaki got up and shook his hand rapidly in front of the teen wearing glasses. He gripped Yuki's shirt and said, "I'll make Yuki-kun hit you if you do!" Yuki made a face at the discomfort before saying:

"I can hit you too. You are aware of that right?" Tohru just sweat dropped at all of the arguing and burst out saying, "I'll get my deck and ask if Haru-chan* wants to play as well," Tohru waltzed out of the room and ran up the stairs. Her braids had bounced up as she stepped on each single step. Turning left, she opened the door to her room and saw Haruhi with an opened textbook. The girl on the floor looked up from her work and smiled.

"Tohru-chan, is there something you needed?" Tohru said nothing as she started freaking out.

"You can use my desk. I'm sorry it's so messy! You shouldn't have to sit on the floor because of my clutter!" Tohru said as she cleared everything from her desk. She had even knocked a few items off it during the process. Haruhi picked up the pieces and handed them to Tohru before saying:

"It's alright. Thank you though," Tohru turned from the desk and showed Haruhi the cards.

"Do you want to play with the others downstairs?" Haruhi turned her head slightly confused and blurted out, "What game?"

"Rich man, Poor man!" the girl with her hair in braids said. Haruhi made a look of thought and said:

"I'd have to decline," Tohru smiled and asked instead, "Do you want to help me make dinner? I'm pretty sure Haru-chan's cooking is amazing!" Haruhi just laughed and closed her textbook before getting up.

"Sure. I don't think my cooking's all that great though. Can I borrow something to change into?" Tohru gave no reply as she shuffled through her closet. She handed Haruhi a light pink shirt as well as a pair of jeans that went up to the knee.

"I don't have anything longer, but I have skirts if you would like to wear one!" Seeing Haruhi shake her head, she pointed to the bathroom across the hall. Tohru opened the door a small bit after seeing Haruhi successfully make her way into the bathroom. What she saw in that very room, was chaos.

"Kaoru! Sedate the orange-top!" Hikaru said as he was shuffling through Kyo's closet.

"He knows martial arts! I can't do that!" Kaoru said right before Kyo twisted the younger twins arm and moved it to his back.

"Ow! Hikaru make him stop!" Tohru seeing the anger on Kyo's face screamed out:

"Kyo-kun please stop! You're hurting him!" Kyo seeing the girls worried face let go and moved his face.

"Psh. These twin bastards deserve it. Going through my stuff. I THOUGHT I TOLD YOU TO STOP!" Kyo shouted at the end of his conversation with Tohru when he saw the twins now pulling out things from his drawer. Hikaru held up a black t-shirt.

"I'm surprised you actually fit in this. It's really cheap fabric too," Kaoru nodded and then laughed as he pulled out Kyo's cargo pants.

"Haha! These things went out of season a long time ago!" Kyo looked like he was going to strangle both of them. At the same time.

"Do any of you want to play Rich man, Poor man?" Tohru said. The twins seemed to engrossed in searching through Kyo's stuff.

"No," Kyo put bluntly.

"Yuki-kun's playing," At the sound of that, Kyo smirked.

"DAMN RAT'S GOING DOWN!"

"Tamaki, stop sulking," Kyoya said after the game of Rich man, Poor man had ended. Tamaki being depressed at his loss had retreated to the darkest corner of the room that was still near the kotatsu. Unfortunately, this was next to Yuki. Yuki, who had won the first two games, made Kyo give up and flip the kotatsu. After shoving his always handy leeks in Kyo's open mouth, Kyo had fainted. He had yet to wake up. After the first two wins, Kyoya had won the last three games, making Tamaki depressed that he had not won a single match.

"But, I have nothing to show my daughter that I'm worthy of something!" Tamaki said sulkily. His head was leaning against the silver haired inhabitant of the home. Yuki had attempted shaking him off, but sighed seeing that the blonde just gripped him harder.

"Yu-chan! I like your house!" was what Honey had said after returning with Mori. When Tohru had met up with them at the bottom of the stairs, they declared that they were to explore the house.

"Don't you like Yu-chan's house Takashi? It reminds you of your dojo doesn't it?" Mori just replied with an 'Un'. It most likely meant, 'Yes. It is very nice,' when translated.

"Yuki-kun? Tohru-chan needs your help carrying all the plates out" said the figure whose head popped out from the door frame. Yuki clamped his hands on Tamaki's shoulder and pushed Tamaki from him. He got up and walked through the door. When he entered he saw various dishes set on many plates. He looked at all the dishes set on the plates.

"Honda-san, I think this is a little too much. Even with all of the people,"

"You think so? At least, there will be leftovers!" Tohru said happily. Taking the first set of plates out, he smiled lightly at her. Haruhi was setting each tea filled mug on a tray and followed Yuki out the door. At the base of the stairs were the twins, who had finished their closet raid with success.

"Yes, commoner cooking!" they said in unison. After Haruhi had placed all the mugs in their respectable places, she thumped them both with the tray.

"Appreciate Tohru-chan's cooking. You're lucky she's nice enough to accommodate all of us anyway,"

"We were appreciating it!" Without a reply she sauntered back into the kitchen and left the tray on the kotatsu. Honey was simply playing with Usa-chan while Mori sat and watched the soft sounds of the rain. Tamaki seemed distracted by all the pictures on the wall, while the twins were still complaining about the now apparent bumps on their heads. Kyo had finally awoken and immediately spit out the leeks from his mouth.

"Damn rat!" Yuki simply ignored him as he put plates down on the kotatsu. Shigure randomly burst in and shouted:

"Ah, Tohru-kun you're cooking is so enticing I smelled it from my office!" Yuki glared at the man as he moved out of the room. He returned into the kitchen where the last few plates were done cooking. He placed each plate carefully along his pale arms and returned to the dining area.

"Yu-chan should be a waiter! You're really good at balancing all that food Yu-chan,"

"Ha, that's all that girly boy's gonna be. Good at girly things," Flinging a pair of chopsticks at the orange haired boy seemed to scare him enough.

"And all you're going to be able to do, is things that are fit for incompetent people like yourself,"

"Woah. Do that again Yuki-kun!" said Tamaki fascinated by the speed the chopsticks flew at Kyo.

"HELL NO! DAMN RAT BETTER NOT-" and he was cut off by another pair of chopsticks being thrown fairly close to his face. His face flushed in anger.

"I SAID STOP DAMN IT!" At that moment, Tohru walked in carrying a small cake covered in strawberries. Kyo stopped yelling and looked at the girl.

"I thought I would make a cake that all of you could share," and then she looked at Honey, "I made some more too!" Honey clapped his hands and then smiled. Hatori had come in sometime after and dinner had officially begun.

"Yu-chan where can Takashi and I sleep?" asked Honey after everyone had taken a turn in the shower after the very eventful dinner. He was rubbing his eyes tiredly and clutching Usa-chan close to his chest.

"There should be a guest room next to mine," Yuki said looking up from his Literature project. He pondered on the subject before continuing, "If you two don't mind sharing a room," Honey just smiled and hugged the boy at his hip.

"That's alright Yu-chan! Thank you for letting us stay here!" Honey ran out of Yuki's room and ran down the stairs to inform Mori. Honey ran into Kyoya and Tamaki along the way.

"Honey-senpai, where's Yuki-kun's room?" Tamaki asked.

"I think it's on the left side, the second room. Takashi and I get the spare room!" The two taller one's continued their way up the stairs and opened the second door like they were told. Kyoya held onto his black notebook and looked at the boy hunched over his desk. The silver haired teen looked up at the two figures that had entered the room and stared. He got up and told them to move closer.

"Do you want to sleep in my bed and I'll sleep on the floor. Or the other way around?" Tamaki looked at the bed and squinted.

"It seems large enough to accommodate all three of us," Yuki just stared at him and took out two futons from the closet.

"Ootori-san doesn't seem comfortable with that idea, Suoh-san," Yuki said as he laid down one futon on each side of the bed.

"Yuki-kun! I demand you call me Tamaki!" Tamaki said pointing directly at the boy who was on his knees. Yuki blinked.

'So much like Nii-san'

"I refuse, it's not the proper way to call someone," Yuki got up and was suddenly surrounded by two pairs of arms.

"Call me Tamaki! I command you!" Struggling to breath, he whispered out:

"Alright, let me go Su- Tamaki-san,"

II

The two girls in the pink room had yet to go to sleep. Tohru was brushing her hair out, while Haruhi was reading a book from Tohru's shelf.

"Tohru-chan? Why does Yuki-kun call you Honda-san? You live with him. Shouldn't you two call each other by first names?" Haruhi asked out of the blue.

"Hmm. Oh, that's just how Yuki-kun is. He's really polite that way," Tohru said pausing her hair brushing.

"But, why Honda-san? Are you guy's related?"

"No, not at all. Yuki-kun found me living in a tent," Haruhi's eyes widened. She whispered:

"You lived in a tent?"

"It's a very long story, Haru-chan. Are you sure you want to listen to me talk the whole time?" Tohru paused, "I don't want to stop you from getting rest,"

"I like long stories," the short haired brunette said from her position on Tohru's bed.

"Well, my mother passed away about two years ago-"

II

Tohru had become so engrossed in telling her story, that she didn't notice Haruhi curling up in her bed. After the last sentence, she looked up to see Haruhi curled up under the blankets and snoring lightly. Taking this as a sign that it was now her time to get rest, she slipped under the covers and stared at the full moon outside.

'Yuki-kun, I wonder if they really found out about the curse. Haru-chan's a girl, so maybe she fell on him and he transformed. Or he had an attack and transformed under the stress. Their memories. Maybe that's why Yuki-kun seemed so scared earlier... Maybe'

The female's eyes drooped and she fell into dreamland. In the room to the left of hers another figure was thinking. This figure was not resting on a bed or futon. He was simply standing in front of his window, admiring the full moon. The two guests who had stayed in his room, were sleeping soundly on the futon's. Kyoya was the one closet to him. The black haired teen's face was visible from the angle he was in, yet that wasn't the main focus.

'Akito. What would happen when he was there? Probably make him stay in that 'room' of his.' Shaking the horrid thought away, Yuki retreated back to his bed. Settling in between the covers he attempted to sleep. He stared at the digital clock on his dresser.

1:28

Sighing lightly the teen turned his body to face the moonlight streaming through the window. He blinked and suddenly he was asleep.

II

He awoke to a tall man shaking him lightly. Still groggy, he was unaware of who the person was. Were they dragging him now? Or was it carrying? He felt being set down on a flat surface and then given a pile of fabric. Was it clothes? He felt it some more. Yes, it was clothes. Slowly the teen made his way into the closest bathroom. At least that's what he thought it was and changed. He then saw the figure again and felt the sensation of being held. Footsteps were heard as he felt a rush of cold air and then warmth. A car engine.

"We'll be going to the main house now Yuki-kun"

I had a really big storm in my area of the world and it knocked out the power for a few days. Sorry for not updating. Plot. Yes. Precious plot. I bet you're happy that this chapter is really long and that is all mostly plot. ^-^ Fun fact about me: I need music to write chapters. Critiques, comments, flames, bricks, you know where to send them. (I would appreciate a marshmallow to be paired with those flames)

*Tohru seems to like nicknames. Ex: Arisa Uotani- Uo-chan, Saki Hanajima- Hana-chan. I wanted her to give Haruhi a nickname.*
