That night, I squeezed myself all the way up to the wall next to the bed. The twins were still brushing their teeth or doing whatever it is they do when they aren't bugging me. Somehow, I fell asleep before they came in but I'm not sure how because my mind was racing the whole time.

I have to share a bed with the Hitachiin twins?! Wait, no- it's worse! I have to share a bed with my CRUSH! I thought. This is going to be so awkward! I'll never get to…

And I was off in dreamland. The next morning was one of the most shocking mornings I've ever woken up to! My eyes groggily opened and I felt the sun's warmth and light streaming into the room. I expected to see the wall I had fallen asleep in front of but instead, I was looking on the other side of the room! I was all the way over on the other side of the bed! When I tried to get up and analyze the situation, I felt something pull me back and I heard a grumble.

Oh my God. I thought, my face turning the shade of a tomato.

There were two catlike arms wrapped around my red tank top, just below my bust. I could feel two other legs tangled in with mine and a hot breath right up against my neck. Judging by the grumble-it was Hikaru. I thought I'd explode. Hikaru Hitachiin was literally right behind me, right behind me I tell you! I tried to move my arm just a smidge but I was only pulled even closer making me think one question: was he consciously doing this?!

"Hikaru?" I barely whispered.

"What?" came his voice with irritation in it (who would want to be up at six in the morning?).

"…What are you doing?" I asked in an urgent whisper.

"I usually use Kaoru as a body pillow but I think I kicked him out of bed." I heard him mumble, each word hitting the black hairs on my neck, "Just be a good pillow and don't squirm."

He didn't sound more seductive than he did half asleep. Can't blame him, I cuddle my air gun when I'm half asleep in the morning. I guess I was too stunned to protest and I spent the rest of the time in bed with the same blood red color plastered on my face and the same 'omg he's so hot' look in my eyes. When the twins maids walked in who were also twins themselves, they had very stoic expressions and didn't even look surprised at my predicament! I was finally freed from the hold and although I was relieved…I guess I wouldn't have minded it going on for a little bit longer…heheh…I mean- I was totally outraged! I suck at lying, don't I?

"Come on, I said I was sorry, what do you want me to do?" Hikaru asked in annoyance as we walked into the lobby, "I didn't mean to kick you out of bed. It was an accident!"

"Accident or not, my back is killing me!" Kaoru shot back.

How about a sorry for using me as a pillow!? I fumed in my mind.

Instead of eating breakfast, I bee-lined for the back door and immediately phoned Kimi.

"Who is it?" a tired voice answered.

"Hi Kimi-chan!" I squealed into the phone.

Usually it was the other way around: I was tiredly talking into the phone while Kimi chirped away.

"Oh hi, Senky-chan," Kimi yawned, "We got our game. We only had to stay up all night for it. How are you?

"Oh I'm good," I said slyly, "Did a little acting in Karuizawa, enjoyed the scenery, and shared a bed with my crush."

"What?! No way!" Kimi shouted, perking up, "How did that happen?!"

"Well I would've refused but they kind of forced me since I helped them win this contest and sorts." I explained, fan-girling like crazy, "Besides, it's not like THAT happened last night either."

When Kimi returned my fan-girling with fan-girling of her own about the new game she got. After a long explanation of how the girl's uniform in the dating sims game was absolutely adorable, Kimi hung up and I was left with my own thoughts once more and I just sat around, day dreaming.

"Senky-chan!" came a cute voice.

I turned to see Honey, poking his head out the door.

"Oh hey Honey!" I said cheerfully, happy to see his adorable face.

"Where have you been? You missed all the fun." He said innocently.

"Oh? What did I miss?" I asked.

"An old friend of Haru-chan's stopped by and said hello!" he said but then his adorable face turned to concern, "But Hika-chan wasn't too happy to see him and he stormed off…"

"Why would he do that?" I asked with a shocked tone.

"Hika-chan always has problems accepting new friends…" Honey said after a long silence, "But Kao-chan asked Haru-chan out to make it up to her."

"That's sweet." I said.

The two did say that they had been together since birth and didn't need anyone else. I think they would be a little apprehensive if some guy from Haruhi's past showed up and threatened their friendship. I thought.

When he left, I grabbed my laptop out and began to write once again.

"Wait…" Brina said, holding Moon back, "Let's just wait."

"Why? The sooner we get Kaz out of this execution, the better." Moon said impatiently as Kazuli slowly walked towards her death.

"We're in no hurry. She can be saved at any time," Brina said softly, "and besides, this is how you're going to end up."

"Huh?" Moon grunted in confusion.

Brina only looked up at him with a grave look, "If you continue on the way you have been lately. You'll be the one to be executed next.

"Whatever," Moon scoffed, "Let's just get her out of this."

Although he had shrugged off the thought, he would take it to heart two years later.

I wrote until the sun began to set and when I tried to sneak off to my cottage, the twins hauled me off again. This time, I stayed as close to the wall as possible and luckily, there was no 'body pillow' incidents. I must've slept in quite a bit because when I woke up, the Host Club was completely gone. I knew Kaoru was taking Haruhi out but I wondered where everyone else was.

"Oh! Haruhi went out with one of those dashing young twins and the others seemed like they were off to stalk her!" Misusu explained eccentrically, "I hope she has fun!"

"Yeah, I guess," I yawned, grabbing my laptop and starting to head for the back porch.

"I'm just glad that Kaoru's cut healed up for his date! He looked a little silly with it, don't you think?" Misusu added on.

I almost dropped my laptop at this. It wasn't Kaoru she was talking about: it was Hikaru. My crush was going on a date with someone else! Horror and depression slowly sunk into my mind and I felt my lungs heaving in denial.

I've been too slow. I thought. Now he's too far in love with Haruhi to ever notice me. And what's more…why did the twins swap off? Whatever.

I only trudged upstairs, packed my things, and moved back into my cottage. When I got home, my depression had turned to anger and I was just so frustrated with my ex-crush, that I whipped out my air gun and shot a picture clean off the wall. Glass shattered everywhere but it wasn't like I gave shit. Instead, I just collapsed in bed and let my 'dark days' take over my life again. I felt like I did in middle school: holed up in my room feeling sorry for myself and wanting to kill everyone around me. He was the one boy who I liked in my life. Before him, I wanted to make the opposite gender go extinct but for most of that year, all I could think of was him.

I guess it started with Kimi-chan having them teach me to dance. I guess I just liked Hikaru's attitude and his denseness to be cute. I thought no other guy could be as sly and kick ass as me. I thought as I sobbed hysterically into my pillow. But now, if he loves someone else, then he means nothing to me!

Kimi: Um...Senky-chan?!

Senka: ...

Twins: Senka?

Senka:...

Kimi: I think she's giving us the cold shoulder. Anyways, next time is Bedridden and Blues.
