HeyZZ! Happy 2011! And I come baring another chapter of Help Wanted... it's short but I think it's cute...

Kaoru's POV
" Gold?"
"No, no, Purple?"
"Too dark but it might work, Teal?"
"That sounds neat; I'll add that to the list." My Twin said, scribbling on some scrap paper.
" How many are we at now?"
" Uh, one? We only have Teal."
"Damn, we really need to come up with something."
"I'll add purple to the list!"
"Hikaru, that does almost nothing."
"But it's still something" My twin chided, pointing the pen at me.
"Yeah, yeah, but we have a day and we haven't even decided on a color." I sighed we were getting nowhere.
" Hikaru, Kaoru?" Our sanctum had be infiltrated, by a little brunette / tanuki.
I quickly sit on the sketches, can't have our little model get suspicious, but only find my rear end sitting upon a pin cushion.
" Oww, Ow, OWW!" I cry and jump off the infernal object but I still feel poking on my back side, I turn around and spy 3 pins stuck in my butt... wonderful.
"Kaoru, you okay? "Hikaru jumps out of his seat and runs over to me.
" No! I've got pins in my butt, how do you think I feel?"
"Hold still." I turn to the sound of Haruhi's voice and notice she behind me... trying to pull the pins out. Of my Butt. Awkward as hell.
"No no, I'll ah do it." I blush slightly (damn I hate when I blush) and pull the god forsaken pins out.
"Kaoru." Hikaru pulls me into an almost heterosexual embrace. "Please more careful. You scare me so much when you hurt yourself."
" Yeah, I will." I whisper back, then I notice Haruhi's still standing there, watching us.
"Uhhhhhh..." Hikaru says and drops his arms that were around me.
" Whatever, I though you guys just pretended... I didn't know you guys swung that way." Haruhi blushed and back out of the room.
"Really? She's the first girl to EVER tell us apart and she thinks Were GAY? Realyy? Seriously?" Hikaru spazes out and I try to figure out a plan of action... we're not gay... but how to show her?
" Hikaru, focus."
"And and Were not Gayy! I would—HIKARU!"
"Yes?" My brother looks over at me and smirks.
"What are you doing?"
"Freaking out for the both of us, you never do it and if you don't I need to, to keep the world in balance. .Well that and you know I'm a bit of a spaz... I mean we've spent every day since day one together...
" yes, yes we have, but that's not the point. We need a plan."
"Well, dearest brother, I actually have a plan." And when Hikaru smiles our trademark Cheshire grin, I know the plan will work...
***STARS***
New Years Eve... not a favorite night of mine, mostly because I hate drinking and if I do go to a party I end up being the only sober person there... So I'm spending this New years in my sweats, with a tub of Phish food at my side. No party for me...
"Haruhi!" the Twin's called and came up on either side of me, locking their arms around me.
"Target Captured!" They said happily and I was stuck being dragged away by them to their lair ( their bathroom).
" No. No way. Nope, Nein. I am NOT going to the new years eve party that Tamaki's holding. No." I protested as they sat me down on a swivel chair (the kind that you find at barber shops but.. all metallic and stuff)
" Haruhi," Hikaru comes over and cups my chin in his hands " Please for me and Kaoru's sake? Last year was so lonely. A lot of our clients were sick so we were on our own for most of the night.. .we don't wanna be lonely again." Hikaru uses his secret weapon: a sad puppy dog look.
"Fine..." I relent, and the twins seriously start squealing like the fan girls...
*** A lot of make-up later***
"Ta- da!" Kaoru spun me around after about twenty minutes of him and his brother playing with my face, and I actually didn't mind the reflection .
My hair had been curled at the tips to make somewhat of a halo around my face. My eyes looked bigger and browner than ever, and my lips looked little and pink (even if they felt icky because of the lip gloss).
"Now, we have another surprise for you." Kaoru is waving a sliver garment bag bin my face. I grumble but take it anyways, I'm gonna try my best to sneak back upstairs, and lock the door too.
I'll admit the guys have out done themselves. The dress was a deep red with spaghetti straps, a black belt and it actually fell somewhere near my knees.
" come on, let's go." They smile when I step out of the separate toilet room ( why there is one I don't know but I am grateful for it) and they wrap their arms around my waits and we head into the party.
Oh joy.
***STARS***
" but, but Haruhi! You have to! It's mistletoe!" Tamaki ran after me, mere minutes after coming downstairs.
"Sempai, it's been almost A WEEK since Christmas.. Give it up." I say and get lost farther in the throng of people. No use standing next to Tamaki and his be exposed to his bad romance skills.
" Hey Haruhi..." Hikaru comes sliding up behind me and grabs my hands.
"Yes...?"
" I wanna show you something..." He pulls me though the crowd, who give us somewhat approving smirks, and out onto a little balcony. I didn't even know the place existed. Man, I really need to find my own hidden spot... then maybe I can get peace and quiet for once.
Even if the place was colder than the north pole, it still was beautiful. And the moon loomed overhead.
"Wow..."
" I know. You're the first person I've shown this to." Hikaru says and sits on the ledge.
"Haruhi not even you're" more than a brother- brother"?"
" Haruhi, you know we are just very close, it's not like we kissed." Hikaru shrugs and slips, falling backwards, off the ledge.
" Hikaru!" I run and grab his arm to keep him from falling over. For a guy who looks to be skin and bones, he's kinda heavy... I need to work out more...
" Thank .. you..." He says between breaths, he looks a little shocked over the whole ordeal.
"Are you okay?"
" Yeah, I think."
" HIKA!" Kaoru comes running from the ballroom, and almost pushes Hikaru off the ledge .
" I'm okay, I'm okay." Hikaru hugs his younger brother, and I see it. The love that they deny but it's there, besides I was joking with them. She just wanted to see what happened if she thought that they were gay... They didn't handle it well...
"So how's your plan working out? You know I was kidding right?"
" Really?" they stop hugging and give me a skeptical look.
" Yeah."
" Oh Haruhi..." they slide up next to me, the smirks on their faces surpassing pure joy.
"What?"
"Happy New Year." The crowd inside erupts, fireworks set the sky ablaze, and my cheek are set on fire too, when each of the Hitachiin twins give me a little peck.
