A/N: Guess what, lucky duckies? I've decided to continue! Now, I don't actually have any idea where this is going, so I can't say how often I'll be updating, but since I have nothing better to do (not like there's a summer reading project I should be working on or anything *cough*) it should be fairly regularly. Read on and tell me what you think!
Disclaimer: I don't own OHSHC or any characters. If I did, I would keep them in my basement where none of you would ever be able to see them ever again. And we don't want that, do we?


Strawberry Kisses

Finally getting over the initial shock of being kissed, by Hunny of all people, Kaoru became even more shocked by the fact that his first reaction had not been to break the kiss and run away. In fact, he was, just maybe, enjoying it. He stayed where he was, not deepening the kiss but not wanting to pull away either. Soon, too soon, Hunny pulled away and gave the very confused redhead an innocent smile.

"Ne, do you feel better now, Kao-chan?" Kaoru could only nod, struck silent by what had just happened. "Good!" Hunny beamed, satisfied that he had done his job. He gave Kaoru one last quick hug before moving back to his original position on the other side of the bed.

"What did you do that for, Hunny-senpai?" Kaoru asked, unable to keep a small, hopeful smile from creeping onto his lips.

"Because I love you, Kao-chan" Hunny said matter of factly. Kaoru was taken aback.

"Me? You love me?" The small blonde boy nodded and smiled sweetly. "But... why?"

"Because you're so cute!" Hunny exclaimed. "And because you're sweet and innocent and nice and I just love you!" Hunny had slowly been inching closer and was now almost next to Kaoru again. Suddenly his voice got softer and more serious. "Do you like me too, Kao-chan?" Kaoru was silent for a moment, thinking. This was Hunny for crying out loud! Hunny, who's one true love was cake, who still took naps and carried a stuffed animal everywhere, who still looked like he couldn't be older than ten. Hunny, who could take out an entire military base if he was in a bad mood, who would probably murder his own brother if cake was involved and who, on occasion, was accused of being an alien. But this was also the Hunny who had been there for him when Hikaru hadn't, who he could talk to about anything and everything, who he could always go to. Finally Kaoru came to a conclusion.

"Yeah, Hunny-senpai, I think I do." With that, Hunny flung his arms around Kaoru in a bone crushing hug. Kaoru glanced over Hunny's shoulder at the clock hanging on the wall, and realized that it had grown late without his knowledge.

"I'm sorry Hunny-senpai, I've got to go. It's nearly eleven!"

"Are you sure you want to go home, Kao-chan? Hika-chan will be there, you know," Kaoru seemed uncertain for a moment, but then he nodded.

"I need to face Hikaru eventually, so it might as well be tonight. Besides, we have school tomorrow."

"Oh, alright." Hunny replied, nodding understandingly. "I can get someone to drive you home, then. I'll come too!" With that, the small boy took Kaoru by the hand and led him out of the room. A servant that was waiting at the bottom of the stairs asked;

"Is there anything I can do for you, Haninozuka-sama?"

"Please have a car prepared to go to the Hitachiin estate," Hunny replied with surprising authority, even as he stifled a yawn. Less than a minute later, there was a sleek black car waiting in front of the Haninozuka mansion. Hunny got in first, and Kaoru slid in next to him. Hunny leaned against Kaoru's side, trying to stop his eyes from closing. Kaoru put his arm awkwardly around the other boy's shoulders and began twirling a strand of his hair. The small blonde's breathing slowed as he gave in to sleep. When they arrived at the house, Kaoru tried his best to remove himself from the car without waking Hunny. His efforts proved unsuccessful, and Hunny sat up, rubbing his eyes blearily.

"Goodnight, Kao-chan," he murmured drowsily. Kaoru moved to get out of the car, but Hunny grabbed his hand and pulled him down for one last quick kiss.

"I'll see you tomorrow, Hunny-senpai," Kaoru said with a gentle smile. He made his way up to the house, turning to wave when he reached the front door. He watched as the black car disappeared into the night, then snuck inside, careful not to make any noise.


A/N: In the next chapter, Kaoru's going to have to face Hikaru, dun dun dun. So what do you think? Better than the first chapter, worse? Any ideas for the story? Just move that mouse (or track pad) of yours a few more inches and click that nice, pretty review button. You know you want to :)
