(Alois)

My eyes stared down at the paper in my hand

Unsure of whether to believe it or not

My mouth was agape

And all eyes were on my face

Hikaru growled in frustration

''Repeat.That.?''

"I-It says Kaoru Hitachiin''

Looking up for the first time

I see a light blush on Kaorus face

Was he as embarrassed as I was?

''Well.. let's um, get this over with then''

I mumbled

Nodding

Kaoru took my hand

Slowly leading me foreword 

Into one of the rooms large closets

The door closed

And everything was black

I could hear Hikaru cussing from outside 

But I paid him little attention

For once

My focus was on his twin

Who in the dim light of the living room

I could see sitting 

Cross legged on the floor

Plopping down next to him

I didn't say a word

''Alois..''

''Y-Yes?''

''Are you nervous?''

I felt his breath caress my ear

I gulped

Holding back a shudder

Why was I acting this way..?

This is Kaoru

I shouldn't be nervous

...

But

Kaoru or not

He is a man

"I-I'm fine''

I whispered after a long silence

He didn't seem to believe me

''Do you wish.. it was Hikaru in here?''

At the mention of his name

My heart sped up ten fold

"K-Kaoru.. it's not personal.. you know tha-''

''Why can't you see me Alois..?''

I frowned

''See you..?''

I mumbled

Confused

He laughed bitterly

''You love Hikaru so much, you've become blind to anything else.. anyone else''

''Kaoru-Kun.. I've been in love with Hikaru since the first time he spoke to me''

There was a pause

''What if.. I had spoken to your first''

''What?''

He looked up at me
