When I get home, the smell of a delicious meal wafts to my nose. I begin walking towards the kitchen when I then see my attire. I'm still wearing my working clothes. So I decide it would be best if I go and change.

I'm running up the stairs when I pass Hikaru and kaoru. They both stop in their tracks, and so do it. He all stand there for what seems like and eternity, but is really only about 5 seconds.

"Your more disgusting than ever. I'm glad tamaki didn't make us help clean" from the mouth of Hikaru.

After a few seconds they continue walking and I proceed to run to my room.

When I get there, I take a quick shower and dress in a pair of black jeans and a Navy blue muscle shirt that's a bit too long, and you could see the sports bra through the arm holes, which is a white bra.

I begin running downstairs, throwing my hair up in a messy bun.

When I get there, Hikaru is finished eating and kaoru continues with half a plate left.

"I will see you in the room kaoru. I need to call haruhi" is see kaoru nod before proceeding to eat.

I, being the smart cookie I am, decide to sit a little ways from Kaoru.

He takes notice to this and flashes me a smile.

I've alway been aware that kaoru is more soft and kind when he's without Hikaru. While Hikaru becomes even more rude and disrespectful without kaoru.

So I flash kaoru and small, sad smile, and begin to eat.

While I eat, I take out my phone and begin calling my grandmother.

After a few rings, she picks up and starts talking.

"AVERY! There's my favorite little asshole! How are you my dear? Is everything alright? Are you well? Do you want to come home yet?"

Grandmother begins battering me on everything, talking like a Madman.

"No grandmother, everything is alright. I'm good. I like my new school, I made new friends just the other day. And no I'm not ready to go home yet. Let's give it a few months and see what we come up with hmm?" I heat her sigh on the other end.

"Oh fine. I just miss you so much. And Jessica is coming to the house every day to check up on me and take care of me. She stays over until supper and then cooks for me. She misses you dearly. You should give her a call"

"Yeah I know. I miss her too. I think I'll give a ring in a few. But for now, what are you doing right now? Because I know you can be a little... weird"

I hear her laugh before a then hear what sounds like paint coming out of a bottle.

"Oh god GRANDMA! No more dying your hair! You know the doctor said the toxins are beginning to get to you!" I say through the phone.

"Yes yes, I know. But I say this pastel purple and I just HAD to try it! I live it so very much! It's so pretty.... how did you know I was dying my hair?" She ask curiously .

"I just know you. And plus I could hear it just right now."

"Oh my lord Jesus! You have bat ears! I swear!"

I only laugh.

"As much as I love talking to you hun, I fear Jessica is going to kill me of you don't call. So do that right now"

I nod even though I know she can't see me.

"Alright, I will. I love you grams. And NO more dying you hair!" U give her my last order.

"Don't tell me how to live my life! I swear if yo-"

I end the call and begin to call Jessica when it see a curious kaoru.

"Do you need help?" I ask, not exactly bitterly, but enough for him to look taken aback.

"Were you talking to grandmother?" He asks. I just nod and look down at my phone.

"Oh, how is she?" He asks. I roll my eyes, but it doesn't seem like he saw.

"Oh she's fine. Wondering when I'll go home to America" he looks confused.

"America is you home? I thought this was your home" I shake my head.

"Why would I call a place of bullying home? This is never going to be my home as long as you and Hikaru are here" he doesn't say anything, all he does is look down at his plate.

I quickly type in jessica's number in my.. long long distance.

It rings... and rings... and rings...

And rings...

Finally, when I'm about to hang up I hear a click at the other line.

"Avery?!" I hear her yell from the other line.

"Yes"

Suddenly she begins screaming from the other line. So loud I have to take the phone a few inches away from my ear.

"Hey girl! How are you! I miss you! We all do! Omg I'm crying" I hear her sniff from the other end.

"Don't start crying! Cause if you cry I cry, and then everybody is going to start crying and we're gonna be all crying!" I say, emotion leaking from my voice.

"In trying to hard not to cry right now. But I miss you so much!! It's not even funny anymore."

Suddenly j hear her sniff from the other line.

"No! Don't do it Jessica!" I warn her.

"I'm sorry" her voice cracks at the ends and I just lose it! I begin sobbing uncontrollably on the table.

"Your the worst best friend ever! You can't just make me cry!" I sob and sob while she apologizes.. and apologizes over and over.

Finally when it's all over, I just ask.

"So what's up?"

There silence before I hear a blowing of her nose and the receiver be put back against her ear.

"Nothing much. I've been visiting grandma tsuka for the past little while. Did you call her?"

"Yeah I did, just before you actually. Did you know she's dying her hair again?"

"Yes! Pastel purple!" She squeals with happiness. I glare, but I know she can't see it.

"You helped pick out the color. Didn't you?" I can hear her gulp from the other end of the phone

"what? pfft no! why would I do that?! I was there when that doctor was talking about the toxins maybe getting into her fragile system. am I a monster or what?" she finishes with a sigh. but I just stay quiet because shes about to break any second...

"okay okay I helped her! BUT SHE ASKED ME! She called me up saying she wanted to go and dye her hair but I said no and then she took me on a guilt trip on how you couldn't be there anymore to help her and she just made a big deal out of nothing. I ended up buying her the dye and bleach. I'm sorry" I can basically just see her slumping down on her bed, which is probably where she is right now because we're in totally different time zones.

with a sigh I answer her. "no its fine. I guess I cant stay mad at you, don't worry about it. but you should really get to bed, you probably couldn't answer me sooner cause you were sleeping. so goodnight, and I love you best friend"

"ugh, I love you too. and yeah, im foreal tired. so bye"

"bye" I reply. I then shut off my phone and look up.

there I see Kaoru has moved places and is now sitting right across from me.

"what do you want?" I ask in a snotty tone. honestly I don't like being mean to him, he was always the twin with less of a temper and more of a soft spot... when he was without hikaru bye his side.

"how's grandmother?" he asks, with what seems like no desire to argue. I decide that since he's the nicer one, I should at least try and be nice also.

"she's fine. shes dying her hair again. of course I don't want her to because I had to take her to the doctors because her scalp stared burning. he says she should dye her hair anymore because it could cause her blood to become infected, or something like that." I sigh and begin eating. she's always been with me since day 1. I love her more than anything and I don't know what to do without her by my side right now...

"Do you miss where you use to live? like with grandma tsuka and... Jessica?" I smile, I miss it all, I miss the air, the city, my friends, my old school, almost everything about.. home.

"yeah, I had a lot of friends, most of them thought if me as a sister. I had a group that I hung out with every day, but Jessica has been my bestfriend since I went there. I had a boyfriend a couple months ago, but I broke up with him cause he was cheating on me, even though I had a lot of anxiety issues from... you"

I'm no longer hungry, I don't feel the desire to eat anything right now, I've lost my appetite.

I look up and see kaoru looking guilty, hes staring at the floor and twiddling his thumbs.

I begin to stand up before I hear a manly voice from behind me.

"you had friends? and a boyfriend? unbelievable. I can see your lying Avery. you really need to work on your acting skills." I roll my eyes.

"why if it isn't the famous Hikaru. take a bow, for being the most despicable human I have ever met. you are rude, inconsiderate, and somebody no one but mother, and kaoru love. congrats, you earn the biggest asshole award" I give him a sly grin before trying to walk past him.

"yeah? at least I don't get the pettiest whore award." I can hear kaoru gasp from behind me, before I keep on walking.

"that's right Avery! walk away like you did the family! you started another life and left us!" I swiftly turn around and see hikaru flinch.

"left you guys? why would I STAY!? Did I have a reason to? because it seemed as though I WAS A MISTAKE AND THE DEVIL SENT ME BECAUSE HE WANTED YOU TO SUFFER! Cause that's what I was told most of my life living here. MAYBE I SHOULD JUST MOVE BACK HOME!" I begin to scream.

"Avery... just please, go to your room and let me cool hikaru down..." the ever so passive kaoru tells me, slowly lacing his fingers through hikaru's.

I nod and run upstairs to my room.

I've always wanted to be a part of their world. I always wanted to hold hands with my older brothers and play soccer with them, hide and seek, tag, just in general be with them and be happy. I was always pushed to the side and nobody but my mother ever gave me a second thought. it was always the twins... why do you think she dressed them up as girls? that was to summer I left..

Hikaru POV

I never hated her, as a matter of fact, I was very fond of her, but when she started taking mothers attention away from us, it hurt, so we bullied her.

"Hikaru.." kaoru's voice was always able to take my mind away from everything wrong in the world, he was my bestfriend and always knew exactly what to do.

"yeah?" I ask im more of an anxious tone than anything.

"I think we should... not bully her anymore.. I need my imouto back, and not just brother." he tells me very soothingly.

"no kaoru, I will not.... You can if you want.. but I'm not giving in and becoming weak and... giving into everything shes ever done."

"really? because last time I checked, every single letter she got from mother, was actually from you, never did mom actually write, it was you asking about her life, you making sure she was alright, you helping her through every little problem she could possibly have while she was living with grandmother. and she's gonna find out when she sees your writing. Hikaru, just accept you care about her."

I roll my eyes.

"Oh just stop it. I do not so much as try to think I even care for her, just stop. I do not want to even think about us being related to.. her"

And with that I just let go of kaoru's hand and walk away from the situation.

She's.... terrible..

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Hey guys! Another chapter up! YAY! But in all honesty this is just just a simple filler chapter. I don't know who she should fall for!

So here's what I was thinking! And you guys have to give me your input in all of this. I want tamaki to fall for her, but also mori, and kyoya. And then Haruhi comes to realize she's actually in love with tamaki, but in order to get his attention once again, she begins to hoe around with Kaoru instead of Hikaru. But please shoot me some ideas. I'm in desperate need of them😭

Have fun with this chappy and stay kawaii
