Perfect Chance
Disclaimer: I do not own Ouran!
Kaoru Hitachiin has always loved Haruhi Fujioka. The way she's able to read through people like she's looking through a glass figure. But because of Hikaru, Kaoru was too afraid to say anything.
"He needs her more… She's better for him" He'd tell himself, but yet, he stilled yearned for her touch. He still wanted to hold her in his arms, tell her how much he loved her. But he knew it was useless. She didn't love him. She only saw him as a best friend.
But today, His luck just might change.
Kaoru was packing up his stuff, after club hours when Hikaru approached him.
"Hey Kaoru, I'm ganna start heading out to the limo. I'll meet you out there, Kay?" Hikaru asked.
"Sure Hikaru, I won't be that long. Just need to find my Science Text book, then I'll be on my way out." Kaoru said, giving Hikaru a quick smile, and then going back to trying to find his text book.
"Looking for this?" he heard a female voice ask as the door just closed, indicating Hikaru left.
"H-Haruhi, where'd you find that?" Kaoru asked, a little shocked that she hadn't left yet.
Haruhi chuckled. "I found it in my back pack. It must've fell in there earlier when you were chasing Tamaki-Senpai around with it." She explained passing the book to him.
Kaoru took the book from her, his hands touching hers. He felt a spark run through his arm, with an urge of pulling her into his embrace, but quickly retracted his hand from hers, pulling the book with it.
"Thanks" Kaoru said, smiling.
"No problem" She replied, picking her book bag off the floor.
"So-ugh… What are you still doing here? I mean not to be rude but-"
Haruhi sighed. "No, I know what you mean. I'm here still because Kyouya-Senpai made me clean up Tamaki-Senpai's mess, claiming it was my fault for not trying to stop him from running around" she said, sounding a little frustrated.
"Well, that's Kyouya for you." Kaoru said with a little smirk.
"Yeah… Well, I should get going. It was nice talking to you Kaoru" Haruhi said, smiling brightly as she started to head out.
What are you doing! This was your perfect Chance to tell her!
"Wait!" Kaoru shouted as he grabbed onto Haruhi's arm, making her look back at him, startled.
"I need to tell you something…" Kaoru continued, looking down at the ground, causing his bangs to cover up his eyes. He shifted his weight uncomfortably not knowing how to tell her.
"What is it Kaoru?" Haruhi said, turning to him fully, as she tried to look into his eyes.
"I wanted to tell you that…-"
"Kaoru, what's taking you so long!" Hikaru complained, bursting into the club room. He looked between Haruhi and Kaoru, realizing he interrupted something.
"Well what's going on in here?" Hikaru said with a little smirk.
"Hikaru…!" Kaoru said, very frustrated "You wrecked my moment!" Kaoru shouted.
"Well I didn't know! I just came to check why you were taking so long!" Hikaru shouted back, getting defensive.
"You couldn't have waited a little longer! I was just about to confess my love to Haruhi and you messed it all up!" Kaoru yelled, forgetting completely that Haruhi was standing right next to him.
"You…Love me?" Haruhi asked shocked. She knew Hikaru loved her, but she didn't know that Kaoru did too.
Kaoru looked down at Haruhi, wide-eyed, and just realizing what he said.
"Y-Yes..." he replied to Haruhi. He took her hands in his own. "I love you with all my heart… And I've been wanting to tell you for a while but..." Kaoru said, not knowing how to finish.
"I love you too…" Haruhi replied, blushing a little bit.
Kaoru's heart skipped a beat. She loves me! She really loves me! I can't believe it! Someone, quick, pinch me so I know I'm not dreaming! Kaoru thought as a million emotions of love and shock passed through him.
"Eh-hem." Hikaru said, once again, breaking the moment.
Kaoru looked over at Hikaru. "Kaoru, I think we should get going now" Hikaru said, in a strained voice, trying to remain calm. His fists clenched at his sides. He knows I love Haruhi! How could he do this to me! Hikaru thought.
"Um… Sure… In a minuet…" Kaoru said, nervously and somewhat scared by his brothers face expression.
Hikaru stomped out of the room, and ran to the limo where he wept for the fact that, Haruhi loves someone else… And that person loves her back…
Kaoru looked down at Haruhi "Haruhi Fujioka, will you go out with me and be my girlfriend" Kaoru asked, his voice shaking a little bit.
Haruhi smiled "I'd love to…"
And with that, Kaoru bent down and did what he's been longing to do forever. He kissed Haruhi Fujioka.
The kiss was soft and gentle, it was a nice little one, but to Kaoru, it meant so much.
When they both finally pulled away, they said their good-byes and went their separate ways.
"Call me!" Kaoru shouted to Haruhi, before sliding into the limo to find a weeping Hikaru.
"H-Hikaru!" Kaoru said, as he clanged to his brother's side. "What's wrong?" Kaoru asked, although he already knew the answer.
"She doesn't love me…"
