Super sorry, for whatever reason the copy and paste method didn't work properly, but it seems to be working correctly now, sorry again...

The twins arrived home from another tedious day at Ouran Academy. The school week has come to a close and an expectedly boring weekend had just began. 'Expectedly boring' because every day was exactly the same at the Hitachiian manor.

Like clockwork, two maids greeted Hikaru and Kaoru as they entered the house. The maids retrieved the boys' school bags, asked if they needed anything, then excused themselves when their answer was no. The brothers started up the stairs to the second floor when another seemingly faceless maid approached them.

"Pardon me, sirs, the head of household requires your company in the dinning room." She informed them.

"Oh, she's home?" Hikaru asked.

"I wonder what mom wants." Kaoru pondered aloud as they pivoted and made their way back down the staircase.

Once inside the dining room they found their mother sitting at the table next to a teenage girl. The girl having long, light brown hair pulled into braids, green eyes which bore into the table, and was adorn in a blue 'commoners' school uniform.

"Good afternoon, boys!" Their mom, Yuzuha, greeted cheerily, "How was school? Anything interesting happen?"

"Not until now." Hikaru commented.

"Oh, it's not that interesting or uncommon for me to be home." Yuzuha replied trying to break the tension, slightly waving her hand in the air as if to say 'it's no big deal.'

There was a short pause before Hikaru spoke again, this time to his copy, "You see the commoner too, right?"

The brunette gripped at the fabric of her plaid skirt when he said 'commoner'.

"Well, I doubt I'm seeing a ghost." Kaoru replied.

The girls hands balled tighter into fists as he spoke, knuckles white, and face turning red. Yuzuha stood from her chair abruptly and spoke in a frantic demeanor, "Ah, haha, now there's no need to say things like that, guess i should explain. This here is Kasumi Etsuki, your...god sister."

"Since when do we have a god sister?" Hikaru asked in a not so calm manner.

"Why did you never tell us about this?" Kaoru asked, more composed.

"Well," Yuzuha began,"Your father and I had lost contacts with-" The red headed woman's gaze shifted as Kasumi clenched even tighter to her skirt,"Would you like to exit the room, dear?"

"No, it's fine, just tell them." Kasumi finally spoke, voice shaking slightly.

"Very well." Yuzuha's attention shifted once more,"Anyways. We lost contact with her parents not long after you all were born, we didn't mean for it to happened, it just sort of did. But, her mother and I were very close in high school, so when Kasumi was born I became her God mother."

""But why did you never tell us?"" the twins asked in unison.

"It was such a long time ago, her mother and I hadn't spoken in ages, I never imagined that...that well...uh-" Yuzuha couldn't find the courage to say what had happened.

"That they would of died in a car crash." Kasumi said quietly, her voice cracking with every syllable.

The room stayed astonishingly silent for a long minute before Yuzuha composed herself, turned completely to face her sons, and said in an unusually serious tone,"Now that I've explained the situation I must be returning to my business trip. Unfortunately i could only take today off to help get settle in to the house. Please behave yourselves and make her feel at home as possible. Goodbye, dears, your father and I will be home in a few weeks."

Without another word, she exited the room and headed for the entrance hall, where maids would surely be to assist her to the limo out front. It was understandable that she's want to get out of the room as fast as possible, in situations dealing with death, who knows, really, how to handle it?

"So, uh, Kasumi, do you wanna play video games or-" Hikaru started.

"-just talk or something?" Kaoru finished.

"Look," Kasumi pushed herself up from the chair with a sigh,"I already know you think less of me because I didn't grow up in a wealthy environment like you did. So, please, don't pretend to like me."

Hikaru felt a pang of guilt remembering his 'commoner' comment, "I'm sorry. I said that before I knew-"

"-before you knew to feel pity for me, that doesn't make it any better." Kasumi interrupted, "You know what, just forget about it. I need to be somewhere quiet...bye"

"Kasumi, we really are sorry, about what we said, and your parents accident." Kaoru said calmly as Kasumi walked away from them.

She stopped mid-stride in the doorway,"Please don't-Ahh" her sentence was cut off by her own surprised yelp as a twin each appeared at her side, hooked their elbows with hers, and started the drag her the opposite direction.

"W-what are you doing?!" she demanded.

"You were going the wrong way," Hikaru half answered.

"That was the door to the kitchen." Kaoru concluded.

"I'm aware." she retorted, annoyed.

"Well, someone of our status should never enter the kitchen." said Hikaru.

"Yeah, if you're hungry, just tell the help and they'll be happy to prepare you anything." Kaoru informed her.

"I'm perfectly capable of making my own meals, thank you very much. I didn't even want any food, I just need to be away from you two." she said a little bit too snarky than she'd originally planed for.

"I can also walk on my own." she said in an understandably angry tone. Which only made her captors smirk in response, "Where are we even going?"

""You'll see~" the twins said together, in a sing-song voice.

✧・゚: *✧・゚:* \(◕ω◕✿)/ *:・゚✧*:・゚✧

"We're just about there." Hikaru announced excitedly.

"Could you at least turn me around so i can where 'there' is?" Kasumi asked. She figured she might as well go along with whatever they were doing after multiple failed escape attempts.

"Hmm, i guess so." Kaoru answered.

With a few swift motions, Kasumi was facing the other way, with Hikaru guiding her with one hand on her back and the other holding her left palm. Meanwhile, Kaoru was on her right side with one hand covering her eyes and his free hand reaching for the door nob to their destination.

"Still can't see where we're going..." she muttered.

"Shhush, just wait a second." Hikaru said.

""Surprise!"" The twins shouted as the door to the room was flung open, and Kasumi was pushed in.

With the hand now removed from her vision, she looked around the room in astonishment, "A library?"

"Well, Kasumi, you said you wanted to be somewhere quiet..." Hikaru reminded her.

"And there's no place as quiet as a library." Kaoru told her.

She couldn't help but giggle at their genuine thoughtful actions,"You can call me Kasi, by the way." she said giggling again and wondering off to the closest shelf and began skimming the book titles.

The twins were grateful that she had walked off with out turning back to face them, because then she could have quite easily noticed their faces turning crimson. 'What a beautiful smile.' they each thought, without realizing the other was thinking the same.
