Ouran High School Host Club

Kaoru took the phone from his older brother so he could say his piece. He heard everything Hikaru had mentioned and there wasn't a reply from their mother so it meant that Hikaru must of made her speechless. Understanding what his older brother was doing, it was time to reign more guilt upon his mother even if it meant bringing up a part of the past. "Hikaru is right mother. Father and you could have managed to spend more time with us, but you probably chose not to anyway thinking we would be a bother with our antics." Shaking his head, he inhaled and exhaled a few times before going on with what he wanted to say for a long time now, the anger and sorrowful desperation like that of a needy child in his voice being heard by everyone in the car. "I know you even wanted a girl mother and was hoping I was going to be one, but you were disappointed that I wasn't which is why you had my name already planned out regardless what gender I was. I know what it means too so don't think I don't know." Panting from his surprising rant he looked down at the ground slightly before speaking, but this time softly and a little annoyed at himself for bringing up something that he questioned for so long. ""Anyway... if this is about school work, we finished it so you don't have to worry about that. We're not lazy with our studies and as for staying late, Hikaru already told you why." Glancing out the window and then at his brother he rose both of his arms in a defeated shrug hoping Hikaru understood the emotional pain he went though. "Maybe I shouldn't of said all of that," he contemplated to himself, his golden eyes wandering around the interior of the car.

 

Yuzuha this time truely was stunned, or more accuratly: hurt. It was true she was hoping for a girl when she was pregnant but maybe she didn't spend enough time around the boys when they were children to instill how happy she was with their own personalities and persons. Her fingers pressed against the phone to keep her shaky breath from getting through and showing her hurt. When she was sure her voice would not crack or sound angry she uncovered the phone. "It is kind of you two to give your friend a ride home. Next time please call first though." she said in a flat tone. "And Kaoru, I think we need to talk when you two get home." she pressed the hang up button and set the phone down on top of a new jacket design sketch. Crossing her arms, she stared at the pages on the table with a slight frown.

Haruhi's expression stayed mostly neutral while Kaoru spoke but after his rant her eyes widened slightly. I shouldn't have been here for that. she stated silently, feeling like she was in the middle of a family argument.

 

Kyouya stepped out of the car, covering his brow and eyes with his hand, taking in a glimpse of the progression being brought about on the new wing of the hospital. He smirked slightly knowing how much effort and time was put into this, but how much return they would receive in providing this upgrade. He proceeded to quietly head through the front entrance doors, his eyes closed and his hands in his pockets, only one to be removed when certain staff members knowledgeable of him greeted. He reached the front counter, giving the nurse a slight smile and speaking in his calm and charming tone, "excuse me...I believe my father is here on business...if you could direct me..." he stopped in mid sentence.

A vibration originating from his pocket made its course all the way up his spine and shook the hairs on his head. He became tense and his eyes somewhat narrowed, a small scowl now on his lips. Looking down quietly at his pocket he wondered if he should even bother, or better yet how he should have known better than to not set it to send to voice mail. He sighed and rubbed the back of his head, regaining his normal composure in front of the nurse who appeared concerned, "its nothing...I'm sorry if you will excuse me please..." he said walking a little ways away into the lobby area. He switched his mood again realizing it was Tamaki before reluctantly answering it, "didn't I tell you to wait just even a few days you idiot..." he uttered into the phone.

 

Hikaru patted his brother's shoulder afterwards hoping to give him some reassurance. He didn't expect Karou to be so emotional and almost torn to pieces. "Don't worry about it." Setting himself closer to him, his arm was reaching over Haruhi's lap to get back his phone before Kaoru forgot. Hikaru was convinced his brother did his part to leave their mother guilt stricten, but at what cost? His brother and him were alike in so many ways and it almost seemed that he was looking at a mirror of himself individually; temper wise which was no better.

Kaoru handed the phone back to his brother and looked away for a few moments feeling ashamed and embarrased of how he reacted. The expression on Haruhi's face just said it all. He had made an ass in front of her and couldn't take it back. Taking out his own cell phone, he sent a text to his mother basically apoligizing for being out of hand and understanding that she wanted to speak with him when they got home. Sending the message with an icon of a sad crying face, he closed his cell hoping she got his text and gazed down at his feet. Swiping his hand over his brow, he glanced in the other direction trying to find the words of what to say. "Um... it's been taken care of. Sorry you had to hear that." That was the only way he could excuse his emotional behavior without getting to upset about it. What he did was wrong and in the pit of his stomach, he was beginning to feel ill epecially of how Haruhi would see him as now. For the remainder of the car trip he couldn't face her, and starred out the window. The car pulled into a drive way, leading them to an apartment complex. Starring at the structure, Kaoru sighed with relief glad that he didn't have to face her again, but then in the back of his mind he knew he wasn't a coward and so the best thing he could do was say one more thing until she departed from their car. "Please let's just forget this ever happened. It wasn't supposed to be like this."

 

Mori looked down at his cousin. He stopped walking and crouched so that he was at Hunny's height. Hunny was suprised.

"Mitsukuni. Of course we will have an adventure"

The taller one stood up again, and as he did, picked up his cousin in one swift moment. Mori started to tickle him as they waited for their car.

 

OOC: Sorry for not being on or posting that much. My life's just getting crazier with all the things coming up at the end of this school year. Probably won't be on much for the next 6 weeks or so. I've got a lot of studying to do!

BIC: "Kyouya!" Tamaki practically squeeled into his phone. He was very happy that his friend had picked up. "I just had the greatest idea!" Getting only silence from Kyouya's end, Tamaki continued, "It's a plan to put an end to one of our guests host hopping. It's brilliant, Kyouya, I'm telling you! But first we'll need some new outfits! I want us all to be dressed as knights from the medievil times. We could even get real horses! Oh, but Haruhi will have to be dressed as a princess. Can't you just see it, Kyouya? My little Haruhi in a flowing pink dress with golden trim... and jewles!" Suddenly Tamaki was distracted from his main point by the ideas of Haruhi running through his brain.

 

Haruhi tapped her bottom lip thoughtfully with her finger, deciding how to speak, before answering Kaoru. "Sometimes you say things you don't mean to your family, that's okay. But..." she shrugged one shoulder, unsure about giving her two-cents about their family affairs. "but, get her flowers on the way home." she ended instead of any kind of real advise. Admittedly, she knew almost nothing about the twins, and less about their mother. So she patted both their knees reassuringly and hoped out of the car, making a mental note to remind the twins to call their mother if it got too late another time.

Yuzuha's phone buzzed on top of her sketches. She pressed the 'veiw' button and was met with a texted apology from Kaoru. Shaking her head, she selected ignore, knowing they would be home soon enough.

Hunny giggled in delight at the tickle fight and effectivly blocked about half of the attacks. As the car drove up and pointed to it, being out of breath, and soon landed on the ground, grinning at Mori, "I'm glad, vacations are more fun with adventures."

 

Kyouya listened, or rather perhaps half listened, to Tamaki's wild and weird plan. He sighed and began rubbing his brow realizing that this idiot had all ready had his imagination come up with such a elaborate if you could call it that, plan, and now he of course would be forced to help the fool put it into motion. A plan to help someone who was host hopping? Requiring actual horses as well as imported metal plating and weapons based in medieval times? What was he trying to do, once again waste every drop of money that the host club had managed to bring in? He sighed again finally getting somewhat of an idea what was going on until his eyes narrowed and his expression became somewhat annoyed.

Haruhi. He didn't know exactly when or where but he had known all along that at some point his thoughts would drag her into his attempt. "Ah very good...but I do wonder why Haruhi must be the only one dressed in female attire..." he uttered quietly with a smirk curious to hear Tamaki's far fetched and drawn out embarrassed excuse as to why this way necessary and vital. Even though he would question and calculate far beforehand how this could actually benefit the host club, he always found amusement in testing Tamaki for stupidity and common sense in his plans.

 

OOC: This thread always makes me smile. I know I can count on this to cheer me up. =)

BIC: Tamaki was now in his limosine on his way home. He was jolted from his imagination by Kyouya's voice. He squirmed around in his seat, having no seatbelt on, and didn't try to hide his blush since no one was around to see it. He exhaled and then said, as composed as he possibly could, "Because the guests like it when Haruhi dresses up, Kyouya. And we have to keep them happy! So what do you think of my plan? Isn't it genius?" Of course, Tamaki didn't realize he hadn't even fully explained his idea to Kyouya.

 

"See you tomorrow." Hikaru watched intently as Haruhi left and made a mental note of exactly where she lived. In the future knowing where her residence was would come in handy if anything should arise. He was not impressed of the simple commoner's residence from the outside, but supposely in the inside it might be different. Seeing the interior of Haruhi's place would have to wait another time as he knew their mother expected them to come home. There was no time to stop anywhere else. Now that Haruhi had been safetly taken home, Hikaru scooted next to his brother whom was starring at his cell phone sadly waiting for a reply.

The last half hour on the way home was spent in silence until they neared the gates of the Hitachiin Estate, where a servant was waiting to open the car door once it came to a complete stop. Both stepping out after the other, they made sure they had their bags before entering the massive doors that were held open for them by two maids. "We're home," they called out to let everyone know. The twins causally walked into the grand entryway, the light nearly blinding them from the elegant golden chandlier with diamonds that hung above their heads. As they walked, the doors were closed almost slamed and locked tight startling both of them a bit. "No need to slam the door," they both complained to the maid staff whom simply bowed and walked away in silence after they took the twins' bags to their bedroom. There was tension that even the help knew some screaming might occur and they wanted to be away from the family's discussion. Hikaru and Kaoru glanced nervously at one of another before their hands reached for the two door handles that led to the dinning room where they assumed their mother was. Indeed dinner was ready to be served, but it was not spread out on the dinning table as they thought. Instead they could smell the auromas from the kitchen. Something was seriously wrong and it could mean a long boring or emotional night for the both of them.

 

Yuzuha was sitting at the table by now, apprently sketching out a new design. After erasing some minut mistake, she turned around and stood up. "Welcome home." she stated, an uncharacteristicly neutral expression on her face. "Dinner is in the kitchen, I'm sorry I've been working out here so I did not have the maids set up dinner. Your father is working a little late tonight, so he'll be back later tonight." she explained, again rather neutrally while walking towards the expansive kitchen to make her own plate. on the way she hasitly put her papers into a pile instead of leaving them to cover the dining room table.

Haruhi watched the twin's car drive off from her window and, after removing her shoes, walked into the living\dining room of her apartment. "Dad?" she called out, poking her head into all the rooms. reaching the kitchen she discovered a note explaining that he had gotten a late shift that night and would see her tomorrow. Haruhi frowned at the note, more in worry than annoyance. He was taking more and more shifts lately only to come home and pass out on the couch from exaustion. "At least over the vacation I can maybe get a job." she spoke to herself, forgetting the twin's idea with the worry of her father's health and bills on her mind. And, of course, she wasn't aware that it was against the rules of Ouran for students to hold jobs.

 

(OOC: I'm glad to hear that. ^-^ Typing the food paragraph made me hungry as it was close to my dinner as well. *LOL*)

Hikaru not worried at all unlike Kaoru was irritated that dinner was not prepared. He had expected to eat when he got home not wait around and go hungry until it later into the night. Disgusted and irratated he stormed into the kitchen holding both of his arms up in the air. "Hey what gives? My brother and I are home now. How come dinner hasn't been served?" The response he got was complete silence which made him roll his eyes. "Forget it. I'll just get something right now." Taking a fork out of the drawer, he stabbed a few shrimp dumplings to hold him over and ate them in a few seconds. "Make sure it's ready to eat in five minutes. You don't want to know if the time exceeds that." With those demands held in the air, he walked out of the kitchen and joined his brother in the dinning room, his eyes starring at what was on the table instead. Picking up some drawings of some sketches of some clothes and a pencil on the table he assumed they were merely rough drafts and starrted to lightly shade in some areas of a dress that would be represented as a lighter tone compared to another that he darkned. He was bored and occupied himself coloring in the dress layout completly not acknowledging where his mother was.

Now he knew he was in serious trouble. When dinner wasn't ready to be served meant their mother or father wanted to get the discussion out of the way or that they were to upset to eat. Instantly his stomach growled by the auroma of the charboiled ganish hens dripping with orange sauce by the hint of the citrus in the air. Stepping into the kitchen, he saw the cooks preparing the garlic mashed potatoes smothered with butter and three kinds of cheese, a dish of chinese tossed salad mixed with dried cranberries and mandarian oranges, another dish of chow mein being set aside as well as a miso soup with shrimp dumplings. When no one was looking he snatched a shrimp dumpling for himself and scarfed it down afraid that might be the only thing he would eat tonight. It was unforunate he couldn't savor the flavor for the small piece was already consumed and being digested by the time he walked out of the kitchen and went back into the dinning room.

Touching one of the chairs, he pulled it back having it make a loud screeching noise that sounded like nails on a chalk board and sat down carefully onto the floral plush seating. With his left hand he felt the softness of the fabric that symbloized comfort which made another fear venture into his mind. What if his mother decided to spank him like a child? Wasn't he to old for spankings or did she believe in that corporal behavior? How old could someone be and still get spankings or was there a law against it once one reached a certain age? And if she did would he cry out like a baby; most likely. Wishing he had payed more attention to these sort of things, he could only assume what kind of punishment he would recieve for the guilt was eating away at him. Waiting for his mother to notice his brother and him, Kaoru didn't say a word and only starred blankly at some of the sketches that were layed out on the table instead of his dinner while visions of being spanked or whipped by their father also if he was home crept in his subconscience.

 

Yuzuha came back into the dining room with her plate made although she knew she would barely touch it. Disccusing anyting with the twins destroyed her appitite. She stood behind the boys for a moment, slightly annoyed that Kaoru was messing around with her sketches. He was good with sketches but she didn't like any body touching her work. tightening her jaw, she sat down at the head of the table. "Kaoru, do not order people about in that manner again, it's rude." she said, response to his outburst in the kitchen. Silently she was trying to figure out how to discuss this with the boys without causing a scene. She hated arguments, but voices always raised a few dBs when a family talk went on. "come on, get a plate and sit down. I'm sure we all have have quite alot to say."

 

Kyouya couldn't help but roll his eyes in disbelief once again as he knew Tamaki's true motives behind Haruhi, but of course his sincere nature in trying to help people. He let out a sigh before continuing speaking, "very well...I shall get right on the planning...although I expect to hear the rest of this absurd figment later..." he said noticing the time. No matter what he would need every detail in order to make sure he set up ways for the club to benefit from this. "For now I have things to take care of...why don't you try running this idea past the other members?..." he said before hanging up, not even bothering with a goodbye, although this is how their conversations usually ended anyways.

He shook his head before putting his phone up and turning back to the nurse, "so sorry about that...if I might inquire where my father is residing once again please..." he said with his charming slight smile. He followed the nurse as she led him to the main office, and he stopped dead in his tracks. Before him stood a dark haired figure with glasses, slightly shorter but none the less a splitting image of himself. His father. Kyouya's expression had changed from the cheerful and gentle smile, to a cold and serious glare as his father finally noticed his presence. "Hello...father..." he uttered quietly with a bow.

 

(OOC: Ah my bad. Now that I re read the paragraph it did sound like Kaoru said it instead of Hikaru. *smacks self for grammer stupidity mistake* Oh well I guess I will just go with it the best I can.)

Karou held his mouth open, shocked that his mother was addressing him instead of Hikaru. "But I didn't say anything to the staff." His eyes pierced in Hikaru's direction whom was the true culprit. "Oh just forget it." He drummed his fingers on the table not wanting to argue anymore. It wasn't worth the fight anyway. Not moving from his spot he only starred at the sketches not feeling hungry anymore. He hated being blamed for something he didn't do and wondered if his mother mistook for the other on purpose or as a mistake.

Hikaru shrugged his shoulders,and shook his head out of disbelief. Their mother was either bothered by what happened or didn't care which twin she blamed. "Wrong again mother." He pointed out to her as he helped himself to the food, but instead of serving it for himself, he passed the plate to his younger brother. "Come on you need to eat."

Kaoru appreciated that Hikaru was trying to help, but he was to depressed to eat anything. What more trouble would occur for him now? This evening was dragging on like molasses. "I'm not hungry," he lied and shoved the plate away from him. Taking one hurtful glance at his mother, he left the table without permisson and headed into the kitchen where he found a paper plate and took as much as he can onto it, sneaking out the other door and headed up towards the bedroom his brother and him shared.

No, not of all nights. Was his brother trying to make matters worse? Blaming himself for everything that had happened, Hikaru got up from the table to stop his brother from doing something defiant. "I know you're upset, but you need to come back. This is normally something I would do," he joked trying to bring a smile to his brother's face.

Kaoru placed the plate on a flat part of the banner of the railing and sat down on one of the steps. He revealed a half sad grin, his body held tight with his knees against his chest. "Scary if you say that. I just want this night to be over with and I don't want to face mother right now especially when she confuses us again." He slammed his fist on his side in frusteration.

"Yeah it's lame, but what ever right? One of us will always be blamed for the other. We're used to it I guess, but the important thing is that you're all right through all of this," he leaned his forehead onto his brother's.

"Hikaru..." Kaoru returned the same gesture. "What would I do without you? I'd be lost." A tear shed down his right cheek.

"No Kaoru I would be lost without you. You're more important to me then anything in this whole retchid world." Hikaru glady let his brother hug him for comfort and returned the favor. "You leave everything up to me. I'll get us out of the mess we're in. It's time for me to step up as the older brother after all." Pulling away, he helped Kaoru up to his feet, lifted the the paper plate, took it with him and walked with Kaoru through the kitchen where he transferred the food from the paper plate onto the fine china as well as got himself a plate of dinner. Hikaru sat in one of the chairs next to his brother, at the opposite side where his mother sat and silently ate while at the same time keeping an eye on his brother.

 

Yuzuha opened her mouth to fix her mistake but Kaoru was already gone. While the boys talked outside, she smacked the table with her palm down, trying to vent any of her emotions. A passing maid turned to her, slightly surprised. Yuzuha graced her with a smile, which seemed to fix any worry the young woman had. When the girl was gone the smile disappeared. Somewhere outside the kitchen she could hear the boys talking. "Why? Why can't you two cut me any slack?' she asked, staring at the sketch Kaoru had been messing with. She restlessly rubbed her forehead, waiting for them to return or for their voices to stop. They soon did the former and she looked up at them, "Hikaru, Kaoru, this is not good. I will not allow our family to behave like this any longer. Let's by pass me trying to explain anything; please tell me, honestly, what you are thinking." she met each boy's eye and hoped they cooperate.

OOC: haha even writing them is confusing, it's pretty perfect hm? =]

 

Hikaru swallowed a mouthful of food before answering his mother's question. "Mother, you confuse us very often and we don't know if you do that by mistake or on purpose to get a rise out of us." He took another mouthful of the potatoes, swallowed them and then continued. "Besides that's not the reason you wish to speak to us is it? It's about how come we were late so let's get to that." He took a sip from his glass of milk and wiped his mouth with his cloth ivory napkin so there wouldn't be any residue left behind. "Like we said over the phone before things got out of hand, Kaoru and I were giving our friend a ride home nothing more or nothing less and we lost track of the time." Gripping his chopsticks, he looked at his watch and rolled his eyes now that it was almost 8pm. "We'll be sure to call you the next time. I'm sure father would like that too when ever he decides to show up for dinner and hopefully we don't need to have the same discussion with him too. It's rather irratating." Stuffing a dumpling in his mouth he consumed the morsal and added more to the conversation about how he felt. "No need to make such a big deal out of it. It's done and over with. Get over it and move on," he bluntly replied becoming irratated by the whole conversation. He stuck his chopsticks in his chow mein and was consuming them one after another.

Kaoru nibbled on his chicken with orange sauce followed by his chinese salad and shrimp dumplings. Hikaru's tone was rude, but that's how his brother got when he was annoyed so surely their mother would be use to it by now. "Heh, yeah what he said." Kaoru felt like Hikaru had stepped on thin ice and was about to fall through which was why he dare not say anything else for he knew his mother wanted to talk to him also.

 

Yuzuha closed her eyes and remained silent, deciding how to proceed. As she reopened her eyes, she stood up and gathered the sketches off the table. Holding them in her arms and leaving her plate untouched despite not eating much during the day, she met her sons' eyes. "I am quite through with this behavior." she stated. "You two seem unable to have a real disccusion with me. I will, as you seem to prefer, leave it at that. But, because we really do need to talk, serioulsy and like adults, and because your attitudes are not acceptable, you two are grounded until you decide speaking to your parents is not so beneath you." yuzuha knew this new approch (in other words disipline) would only set the brothers more against her for the time being. But she hoped desperatly it would pay off in the future.

 

(OOC: So true. Ah... drama can't get away from it especially the family type. It feels like a soap opera *LOL* XD)

Immeditely both of them stood up at the same time practically ganging up on her. "Grounded? You can't ground us! This isn't fair!" They both yelled at the same time alarming the staff with their voices.

Kaoru was stunned, more like hurt when he heard their mother send forth the blow. Sighing he glanced down at the ground, satisfied he finished his whole plate of food. He was so upset that he slumped in his chair and began to cry. "This isn't fair. This was not supposed to happen especially with summer coming up and our birthdays too. Mother why do you have to be so cruel? How could you do this to us? " He leaned on the table and began to cry in his arms knowing any chance at their freedom was gone now.

Hikaru on the other hand was enraged that he slammed the table and pointed at his mother forgetting she was even his mother due to the adlerline and that the woman was merely a stranger. In other words losing all respect for her at the moment. "Mother! Now look what you did. You made Kaoru cry after he's been through enough. First you call us and embarrass us in front of a girl after we were doing something nice, then you have the nerve to mistake us again and to follow that you ground us. See if I ever do anything gracious for anyone ever again especially if I know I'm going to get punished for it!" He attempted to calm down, his fists both clenched but it was near impossibe with his temper and personaility. "So much for bringing the family together. With this stunt you just alientated us from ever trusting you or father again. Is that what you want? You might as well be working and desserting us like you did practically our whole life!"

Kaoru's red edged eyes from crying stung which made him gaze up at his brother and he knew this discussion was getting more heated. He had to do something to calm his brother down. "Hikaru. I know you're angry, but you need to stop. We'll only get in more trouble this way." He seized his brother's arm and pulled it back gentely hoping to diffuse his brother's temper.

Turning to his younger brother, he vented at him. "It's not fair Kaoru. I didn't do anything except tell her how I felt like she told us to do. I was being honest and we get punished for it." Facing his mother, their was distrust and anger in his eyes, but also a glimpse of tears. "Isn't that what you said to tell you exactly how I felt? Tell me exactly what you are thinking were your words were they not? I did just that and look what happens. You lower the boom on the both of us. Would you like it if you were told to do something and you did just that and got punished for following orders? Am I now supposed to not say anything at all and not be able to express how I truly feel? You're not being a mother. You're being a tyrant!"

"Hikaru please stop. What good is all this rant and raving going to do? What if father comes in at this moment? I don't want you to get hurt." He tightly wrapped his arms around him; scared for his safety.

"I don't give a damn if he comes in or not. What mother did was unjustified and unfair. Because she can't handle a simple discussion she pulled the trump parent card and I'm sick of it. There has to be another way to get past this and grounding us isn't the answer. It only makes things worse and makes me never want to trust her ever again especially for something she told me to do. Damn it. I'm repeating myself like a parrot now." He inhaled and closed his eyes, trying to be reasonable and not let his anger get the best of him.

Kaoru rubbed his older brother's shoulder and neck area with his own face seeking comfort. "I know how you feel, but like it or not we're still her sons no matter how old we get and she is still our mother whether you agree with her decisions or not no matter how wrong they may be."

"I don't know if I can take anymore of this and I understand what you're saying Karou, but someone has to take a stand even if it is against our mother. What she said was wrong. She mislead me. I didn't know she was going to go as far as to ground us otherwise I would of never said anything. I would of just sat in silence, but she didn't want that. She wanted me to tell her how I felt." He kicked one of the chairs to the wall frusterated and scorned and turned away not able to face her any longer. Knowing what he did was wrong, he picked the chair up and placed it back to the table like it never happend not wanting to get in any more trouble for that stunt. "I'm just saying none of this had to happen if she didn't trick me. And I'm sick of this! I'm tired of always being in the wrong because of how I express myself!" Hikaru was pacing now, feeling his temper resurfacing and walking was something to keep his emotions in check. "I don't know what else to do?"

 

Yuzuha listened to them silently, watching them grab each other and play up the pitiful, deserted children act. But she didn't flinch; this was what she expected. "Are you finished?" she asked, druming her fingers on the sketches. "Yes, it isn't fair." she agreed, now that they were quiet. "But, you know what?" she leaned foward alittle. "It isn't fair for me either. I don't want to ground you, but this tantrum has shown me it really must be done. Like i said before, when you feel you want to talk to your parents, we will be happy to talk. But your behavior does not merit freedom." she paused, turning to leave the room. "I will be in my study all night, if you want to talk." she left feeling horrible. I wish I could fix this without upsetting them... but I take that easy road too much. Maybe their friend will make them see that... as she walked up a narrorow staircase to her private study she wondered what kind of girl could have broken through the twin's walls enough to make them vollenteer a ride home.

OOC: haha no kidding!
