Kaoru had felt everything shatter. Ever since Haruhi had come along, Kaoru's perfect world had been crumbling. Hikaru had always been his support. Now he was starting to slip away little by little. Kaoru didn't want to cry, merely to laugh. He wanted to laugh at his utter stupidity for thinking that he could actually pull off one of the greatest taboos. Loving his brother. He'd never admit it, but he'd never deny it. Hikaru had always been there, always able to push his brother up. If Haruhi's name was even mentioned, Kaoru would fall.

Hikaru looked over at his brother. "Kaoru..." he said seductively, pulling his brother down in a romantic fashion. Kaoru didn't think it felt right. He wanted it to be real, not fake. That was what it was, an act. "Is something wrong?"

Kaoru gave a fake smile. "No, Hikaru..." he answered.

"Am I not enough for you? Are you thinking about breaking my heart?" Hikaru asked. Kaoru cringed a bit. Everything seemed...fake. It was.

"I don't think that I'm the one who's breaking hearts."

Hikaru looked at him questionably. "What do you mean, Kaoru?"

Kaoru wanted to. He wanted to tell him that he didn't want everything to be fake anymore. Kaoru could, or he could stay quiet and allow Hikaru to be pulled farther away from him. It was easier that way. For Hikaru. In truth, Kaoru hated every day because it meant that a little bit more of his heart would be pulled away. "I mean..." he immediately silenced himself, not wanting to say anything else. He would let his heart suffer as many times as it took to make Hikaru happy.

"What?"

Kaoru knew his brother meant it. For once Hikaru wasn't acting. "Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why don't you just leave now?! It would make things much easier for the both of us! We both know you care for Haruhi much more than you could ever care for me. But I don't care. As long as you're happy, I would be happy. Everything's fake! You don't care if my heart gets broken in the process!" Kaoru yelled, letting the tears that he had bottled up for so long fall. The girls watched in shock. Others watched in horror. Even the Host Club had turned their heads to see this. Even Kyouya was shocked.

"Kaoru..." Hikaru mumbled.

"Don't 'Kaoru' me! Stop pretending!" Kaoru yelled, running quickly out of the quiet room.

"Kaoru!" Hikaru yelled, running after him.

Tamaki looked over at Haruhi. "You don't like him, right?" he asked.

"Not that I know of..."

Kyouya sighed. "This is going to hurt our budget so much..."

A.N.: Okay, I absolutely adore Hikaru and Kaoru, and I am also a fan of Haruhi and Tamaki. I think that Hikaru should stop looking at Haruhi and realize that someone else is madly in love with him.
