Hey ^_^ Here's my story for the anime "Ouran High School Host Club"
(Disclaimer: I don't own OHSHC)
Chapter 1
Why?
Rain slid down Hikaru’s face as he stared of into some other world.
Why him , how come not me?
Hikaru didn’t pay attention as the priest talked about Kaoru as if he knew him, he didn’t know Karou like he did, no one did.
Is this really happening?
Yes, it was, his twin, his brother, his best friend was being lowered into the ground meeting his eternal grave. This wasn’t happening, no way could he survive with out him.
This is only a dream! Wake up Hikaru!
Hikaru’s fist tightned s tears rolled down his face mixing with the rain.
No! I’m more evil, I should of died! Not him, not innocent Kaoru!
People soon began to move walking over to Hikaru and his mother and father saying they were sorry, and hope they could get through it. Hikaru heard none of them.
The “Guess who’s Hikaru game?” wouldn’t be fun without someone who looked exactly alike. Haruhi wouldn’t be fun to play with anymore if his brother wasn’t along beside him.
Tamaki and the others stood at the grave, devastated, but not as much as Hikaru. Hikaru couldn’t take it anymore, and before he knew it his expensive pants were sloshing in mud, and before he could hold them back tears flowed form his eyes. He didn’t even recognize when he slumped against a tree, crying. Kaoru was gone, forever, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Forever. Nothing.

“Hikaru! Breakfast is ready!”, his mom called at the bedroom door after the maids tried several attempts to get him out of bed. Hikaru rolled over in the bed built for two, she expect him to eat a day after his own twin’s funeral?
“ Hikaru dear! Hurry up before your food gets cold”, how could his mother do this? Her own son died! And she was acting like nothing happened, like it was a regular morning. She use to call both of us if we didn’t get down stairs on time for something important.
Hikaru blinked, he had hardly got any sleep last night , how could he get uo as tried as he was? He had already cried himself dry and he had hurt both of his hands ( destroying half of the house and it expensive art) so all he had left to do was sulk. Just sit and become a empty shell. Become extinct...
“ Hikaru!” his mother banged on his door. He closed his eyes.
Empty.
The door bust open with his dad nearly shooting flames, he pulled the covers off Hikaru and swung him out of bed. “ When your mother says is time for breakfast get up!” he said. Clearly he was annoyed by his mother, not Hikaru, or maybe he was...? His father lifted Hikaru over his shoulder as Hikaru just became a limp rag doll, life was pointless, why struggle?
His father sat Hikaru down and shoved a plate in front of him and marched up the long stairs. Hikaru blinked, and blinked, and breathed, blinked, pumped blood, blink, blink, pump blood...
A maid came in walking cautiously towards Hikaru, she seemed almost scared to even get close to him. You never know what will happen when someone’s twin dies. It could make them crazy or even make them go all emo. The maid dragged her feet feeling as if they had did this on purpose to her.
“M-master H-“ he maid stuttered .
“ No.” he said, the first word he had said the moment Kaorou died.
The maid jumped and ran out the room, ‘no’ meant in crazy people language “ I’ll kill you if you don’t step back in five, four, three...”
Hikaru’s mom walked in, brave as she could be, “ Hitachiin Hikaru, you are going to school today like it or not, understand?”
Silence.
“Good,” his mother fidgeted then sighed and slowly walked over the long dinning table to the chair closes to him, “ look , I know it’s hard but you have to move on. You can’t hold onto forever, just erase it from you mind. Go to school, it will help, hang out with your friends, it’ll cheer you up. It’s what Kaoru would want...“
“You wouldn’t know what he would want, mother!” Hikaru said standing up sending the chair behind him to fall, “ No one would know, but me!” With that Hikaru stomped up the stairs, he was going to have to hurry to get to school, he was already late.
-------------------------------------------------oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo---------------------------------------
Some people stayed clear of him, some people tried to cheer him up, some even went to offering tickets and free visits to spas and islands their parents owned. Hikaru rejected and declined all. It seemed weird not to have a person next to him, a mirror image walking at the same pace, same style.
Everyone stared, and those who didn’t know what exactly happeded whispered. Did they get into a fight?Isn’t there another twin? What happened to him? I heard he murdered his own twin. Hikaru heard them whisper those questions and so much more, how could his parents send him back to school, as soon as his twin dies.
Hikaru even drove off his fellow Host members, Hunny challenged his dark aura by offering him his cake. Hikaru glared, Hunny cried, Mori picked him up and comforted him. If only Hikaru had some there to comfort him...
After school Hikaru somehow dragged himself to the fourth music room. He was late. About an hour late more so. Never, ever had he and Kaoru been late, but this time Kaoru wasn’t with him. Hikaru passed by the fellow ‘freinds’ and then pass the ‘Hitachiin twin’ fans/customers, and then sat at a table, by himelf, next to a window. People stared, he didn’t care.
“H-h-hikaru,” a girl said with her head down who was brave enough (or stupid enough) to approach him, “ I umm..” she began fidgetting and shifting her wieght from one side to the next.
Hikaru looked up at her with a frown, “ Say it.” he said, getting impatient.
“ I a-am sorry for you lost, I just wanted to know if you will still be in the Host Club?” she finally got out, slightly relived.
Hikaru never thought of this, “ Don’t know,” he said put his head own and stared out the window. He listened to the girl walk away, nearly tripping before returning to her group of friends. Was he going to quit? The Host Club had been his and Kaoru’s sanctuary, a blessing from Tamaki. A chance to fool around with Haruhi and the lord. This place had put the smallest space between him a Koaru, and soon the had even been able to set apart awhile during the day. It was probably the reason why Hikaru hadn’t already committed suicide.
Hikaru sighed and closed his eyes, but it still didn’t answer the question. Was he staying or going? No purpose here anymore, but it was the only place he actually had only a few people who understood. Yet again, they were already starting up the Host Club again, like his parents.
Forgetting.
No, they couldn’t forget his twin, the unseperateable duo. The two musketeers. The devil twins.
Then heheard a loud booming voice, more so Tamaki’s. Hikaru ignored it, self absorbed bastard. Hikaru thought, and that exactly what the guy was. Then he heard a shuffling of chairs and chatters of girls slowly fade away.
No, he didn’t.
They were going to talk to him now, he was notgoing to talk to them, no those people who actually tried to continue their lives like nothing happened, fools.
“Hikaru,” Haurhi’s gentle voice said as she approached the table. “ are you alright?”
Of course he wasn’t alright! What the hell were wrong with these people! Do they not understand that his brother, his twin just died, “Eh.” was Hikaru’s only reply.
“What’s wrong,” The self absorbed bastard said. Okay, this was getting on Hikaru’s nerves.
He stood up and this time made sure, this time,not knock over the chair, “ You want to know what’s wrong!” he demanded more then asked, anger flew them him, “fine then lookit up in a dictonary, because it seems like no one around here seems understand the word ‘death’! My twin just died, and everyone is still happy as can be, Tamaki ‘the king’ is still flirting with every single girl he sees, Kyoya just keeps caring about his money, Mori has no feeling, Hunny is an idiot, and Haruhi...” Hikaru trailed off and sighed, grabbed his bag and pushed passed the jaw dropped friends.
“You know what, forget it.”, he said and then walked out the third music room.
He was definitely quitting.
=D I hope you enjoyed the story.
