[ X - Adult: No readers under 18. Contains Graphic Adult Themes/Extreme violence. ]

Author Note: I don’t own Love Hina. I am using the characters from the story in mine. This story doesn’t follow the Anime or the Manga, it happens in a different time line.
Please be nice if I make a mistake, and I will fix them.
I am going to be using different typing to tell everyone what is going on with everyone. Like, when it is in Italic it will mean thinking, when it is in bold it mean upset about something.
When I put 888888, it means a Flashback.
There is some swearing in this chapter

Keitaro was playing in the sandbox by himself like he did every day, while Haruka sat on a nearby bench, watching him. Haruka usually had a book with her to keep her occupied while he was playing. She caught a sudden movement out of the corner of her eye, and she looked up. A few bullies had surrounded Keitaro. One grabbed him by the hair and said, “What are you doing playing in our sandbox?” Keitaro looked at them with a mixture of fear and confusion, and said, “I didn’t know this was yours.” They smiled maliciously, and one of them punched him in the stomach, causing him to double over. Haruka jumped off the bench, dashed over like a bat outta hell, and proceeded to beat the crap out of the bullies. After receiving numerous bruises, they all ran away, leaving a crying Keitaro and a pissed off Haruka. Haruka put her arms around him and said, “You all right?” He lifted his head and whimpered, “I don’t know.” Haruka was heartbroken to see Keitaro upset, and said, “I will get you an ice cream, if you promise to stop crying, all right?” Keitaro nodded his head and said, “Sure.” He wiped the sand and tears from his face, and then Haruka smiled. They walked over to the bench so Haruka could get her book.

Keitaro took her hand and said, “Aunt Haruka. Thanks for protecting me like that.” She softly bonked his head with her book, and said, “How many times do I have to tell you to call me ‘Haruka.’” Keitaro looked up at her and said, “I know, but I'm just happy that you protected me.” Haruka looked down at him and said, “You know you have to take care of yourself sometimes. I might not be around all the time. Please stand up and show me that you are a man.” He nodded his head, and they went to get some ice cream.

The next day, when they returned to the park, Keitaro sat on the swing, while Haruka talked with some friends from her school. He looked over to the sandbox, where he saw a young girl playing there alone. Behind her, coming down the path, he saw the bullies from the previous day heading towards the girl in the sandbox. They all closed around her. Keitaro looked around for someone to help her, but the only person was Haruka, and she was busy talking. He got up off the swing and walked over to them. He heard one of them said, “How about we use her as our play toy?” The others laughed, and that was when Keitaro pushed his way through the bullies and said, “Leave her alone.” The bullies looked at him, and the older one said, “Well, you didn’t get any last time. And this time your friend isn’t going to help you.” Keitaro looked at all of them, realizing too late that they were much bigger than him. They descended on him and took turns punching and kicking him. After about five minutes, they decided that they had had enough fun for one day, and they left. Keitaro was on the ground, bleeding from a cut on his lips and a bloody nose. The girl crawled over to him and said, “Are you okay?” Keitaro looked at her and said, “I could ask you the same.” She tentatively reached out and touched him on the shoulder, and said, “Thank you for protecting me.” That was when Haruka came running over and said, “Keitaro.” He smiled at her and said, “I didn’t cry. I protected her.” Then he blacked out. Haruka picked him up and said, “Please come with me. Are you alone here?” She shook her head and said, “I will go and get my mother.” She ran off to find her mother.

A couple of minutes later she showed up again with her mother in tow. Haruka smiled and said, “If you would please follow me. Your daughter here was in trouble, but Keitaro here,” nodding her head to Keitaro in her arms, “protected her.” The girl’s mother nodded her head and said, “Please, let’s get going.” They all walked back to the Hinata House. Grandma Hinata was in her room, busy going over some bills, when Haruka came in carrying Keitaro. “What happened to him?” she asked. The young girl walked up and replied, “He protected me.” Grandma Hinata went to her knee so that she was at eye level with the girl, and said, “He protected you?” She nodded her head and said, “Yes.” Her mom came up. “I am Miss Aoyama,” she said, bowing politely. “Nice to meet you.” While Haruka took Keitaro’s unconscious form to his room, Grandma Hinata tended to their guests. “Please, would you like to stay for a bit, to make sure that he will be alright?” she asked the girl. She stood up, and said, “Please. I would like to stay here with him.” Her mom looked at her and said, “Are you sure about that Motoko?”

Motoko nodded her head and said, “Please. I like him. I want him to be my friend.” Grandma Hinata smiled and said, “She can stay here if you want her too. Keitaro could use a play friend here. I don’t mind.” Miss Aoyama smiled and said, “I will pick her up at the end of the month, if that is okay.” Grandma Hinata nodded her head, and then Motoko’s mom left. Motoko said, “Can I please see him.” Grandma Hinata smiled and said, “He would like that very much. Can I please join you?” Motoko nodded happily and walked to the room Haruka took Keitaro into. When they got there, Keitaro was awake. He turned his head when he heard them coming in and looked at them. Haruka saw that he was awake now, and then looked over to the door. The young girl came over and said, “Hi Kei-kun.” He smiled at her and said, “Are you all right?” She touched his cheek and said, “Thanks to you.” Haruka looked at Grandma Hinata and said, “I was talking to some of my friends, and when they left I saw him on the ground. He didn’t cry.” Grandma Hinata smiled and said, “I have some news for you. Motoko will be staying here with us until the end of the month.” Keitaro sat up and said, “Really? Does that mean you want to play.” Motoko smiled, softly pushed him back down, and said, “After you rest.” He nodded, and Haruka looked over to Motoko.

“If you need anything Motoko, call me,” she said. Motoko nodded her head and looked back towards Keitaro, who had fallen asleep. She lay down next to him and fell asleep in a few minutes. Haruka saw her lay down next to him, smiled when he saw his arm reach over and hold her protectively. Grandma Hinata smiled too, and said, “At least we know he will be all right.”

It was about two in the afternoon when Keitaro woke up. A few seconds after he woke up, he felt someone softly breathing on his neck. He turned his head and saw it was Motoko. He carefully removed a few strands of hair from her face. She woke up and said, “Hey, Keitaro.” He smiled at her in response. She saw that she was using his shoulder as a pillow, so she got up. “Do you want to play?” he asked. She nodded her head and said, “Sure.”

He got up and walked down the stairs and went outside. Haruka was busy cleaning up when she saw that Keitaro and Motoko were awake. Then she heard laughing. She took a peek and saw that Keitaro and Motoko were chasing each other.

One month later, Motoko’s mom came back to get her. Keitaro stood there hugging Motoko, holding in tears. Motoko tightly hugged him back. After a couple of minutes hugging each other, Keitaro said, “Will I see you again Motoko?” She took his pinky and said, “I promise that we will see each other again.” He felt the tears coming in full force, but he didn’t want to cry. Motoko kissed his cheek and then she left the Hinata House. Motoko looked over her shoulder and waved good-bye to him. He waved a good-bye to her and once she was out of sight he ran to his room and started to cry. He didn’t want to cry in front of her.
