[ P - Pre-Teen ]

Disclaimer: I Don’t Own Ouran High School Host club..... not one single bit of it...*goes and mops in corner*
A/N: This actually had two pairing, NekozawaxFujioka (the one I was planning it to be) and OhtorixFujioka (the one which just kinda snuck its way in there.)Ah yes and hints of Twincest. Now this is not very good so don’t yell at me. Flames welcome, but don't burn 'um to bright...*mutters* even though I'm a pyromanic. This begins from the Holloween episode of Ouran High School Host Club.



“Eh?!” Haruhi cried as she tripped over the string that caught her and Hikaru in the net like animals. Her head was bowed and her hidden away from Hikaru as she flinched at the pain in her ankle. She must have twisted it. She wanted to cry out in pain as Hikaru moved around wailing for his brother but calmed him down and pulled out a small sewing kit and took out the siccors to cut the ropes. Once they were cut they landed on the ground with a thud and Hikaru hurried off to find his brother. Haruhi watched him race off before struggling to her feet. It was strange to see Hikaru run after his twin like that, but she figured it was just something that had to deal with their twin-bond thingy. She hissed in pain as she put to much pressure on her foot and stumbled to the right and hit the ground clenching onto a little stand and bowed her head tears in her eyes.
“Haruhi?”
Her head shot up and she looked back to see Kyouya leaning against the wall his head up from his little book he was reading. Haruhi wiped her eyes and got back to her feet before stumbling again. This time she had nothing to hold onto and was going to hit the ground face first. She closed her eyes and went to stop herself from hitting the ground before she felt soft, strong arms wrap around her. Opening her eyes she saw the floor just beneath her and she sighed. She let an ‘eep’ as She felt her savior throw his arm under her knees and pick her up bridal style. She blinked and looked at Kyouya, her obvious savior. “You shouldn’t try to walk when your hurt.”
“Who said I was hurt,” she mumbled, “maybe I just lost my balance.” She knew that was an obvious lie, but she couldn’t let Kyouya think of her as weak or anything like that. The shadow king didn’t reply he just keep on walking. Haruhi frowned and looking infront of them. “Where are we going?”
“To the nurses office.” He replied calmly.
“The nurses office!” her eyes widened, “but Kyouya-senpai that on the other side of the school.”
“Afraid someone will see us?” He said giving his usual smirk.
No, she thought, I’m worried about you carrying me all that way, I can’t be that light. “No,” she whispered before looking back to were they were going. Kyouya however had opted to looking down at her prone body. She had hesitated to answer that, and it had seemed that she wouldn’t have answered it if she hadn’t known his personality. Hm... interesting, he thought. They traveled in silence except for Haruhi’s occasional flinch and hiss going down a set of stairs were her foot would..jump..in a way and cause more pain.
Finally reaching the nurses off Kyouya set her down on the bed and went to get some medical tools and see if he could locate the nurse. “Haruhi, try taking off your shoe and sock, if its to painful wait until I return,” he said before shutting the door. Haruhi watched him leave before she undid her shoe and slipped it off gently and pulled her sock of, which hurt the most. She sat in silence looking around the office before the door opened and A nurse came in. It was the one that had been the one that gave her her check ups, this nurse knew she was girl, “hello ms. Fujioka, Mr Ootori says you’ve sprained your ankle, let me have a look at it.” She said handling it with care while Kyouya slipped in the door and shut it. “You’ll have to soak it to get the swelling down,” the nurse concluded before getting up and going to geta basin to run some water for Haruhi. Setting the water down Haruhi let her foot slip into the warm water making her moan at the warmth. The nurse said something to Kyouya before leaving and Kyouya sat down in a chair.
Haruhi raised an eyebrow and Kyouya answered her un said question with out even looking at her. “Some one has to stay here and take you home in a couple of hours, unless you really wanna walk home at 12 midnight on All-Hallows Day.” Haruhi frowned. Defiantly not.
Silence once again reigned before Haruhi spoke up, “sorry about this Senpai.”
“I’ll just add some to your debt,” Kyouya said making Haruhi gasp and glare at him. He smirked, he loved getting this reaction form her. He could see Haruhi searching his eye so he lifted his head to make his glasses glint stopping her.
“You’re an evil, manipulate, bastard you know that,” she hissed but stopped and gulped when he got to his feet and started over towards her.
“Now, now,” he mocked, “there’s a no need for such names.”
“Even if it’s true,” she tried to sound strong in the argument and keep eye contact but it was doing so well.
He put his face to hers and smirked, “well maybe I should leave you here, with all the ghost and gauls traveling these halls at night. Especially the clock tower witch.” Haruhi scuffed and smiled.
“I don’t believe in such things,” she said glaring at him. He stood up and shrugged, “alright then, I’ll see you tomorrow.” with that he turned and walked out leaving Haruhi there. She watched wide eye’d as he walked out, not truly believing he had just done that. She sighed and looked at her foot the swelling was going down and the pain was numb now. She pulled her foot out and wiped it off gently before slipping her shoes back on She poured out the water and left the nurses office and decided she’d head and try to find group.

She walked up the stairs slowly as the pain began to return but stopped as a ball bounced past her down the stairs. She watched it until it rolled to a stop on the floor. Out of now where the clock struck 12. And she suddenly heard laughing voices, not the students, eerier laughing, like elementary children. Her eyes glued to the ball as a white figure came from no where and picked it up before looking up the stairs. “Do you wanna play with me Ni-chan?!” Haruhi’s eyes widened, and she shook her head blinking but the child was still there a smile on her face.
“Sure, why not,” a male voice replied and Haruhi’s head snapped around to se an older male, Freshman height, his facial features, or all that she could see were much like the child’s. He strode past her and she laughed slightly, “hehehe, okay guys this isn’t funny anymore, its time to head home,”s he said looking around for anyone who might be there, “guys? Hikaru? Kaoru? Kyouya?” The figure stopped at the bottom of the stairs and reached out for his little sister before a knife came flying past her landing in the males back. Haruhi’s eyes lost all life and face flushed. She looked back in fear and watched as another character in this drama raced down the stairs and put another knife though the little girl who screamed before falling to the floor a knife through her head.
“Sere..bi...” the male that was laying on the floor reached out for his little sister but hand dropped to the ground, he died as well, both the dead siblings vanished into mid air. But the one remained. Haruhi took a step up making the steps creak. Which shouldn’t have happened since they were new. The male head spiked up and turned to stare Haruhi in the face. She froze to her spot as silver death like eyes glared at he rand a deadly smile formed on his face. He pulled another knife and started up the stairs. Haruhi’s heart beat once then twice before she took off up the stairs ignoring her hurt foot.
She ran and ran and didn’t dare look back, she could hear insane laugher and footsteps behind her. Tripping halfway her arm scrapped against the floor but she ignored it and stumbled back to her feet and ran Somewhere going up the stairs her foot slipped and her eyes shut as she fell backwards knowing where she landed it would be a hard impact.
Landing wasn’t as bad as she thought, There was a uff and it didn’t hurt like she thought it would. Opening her eyes she found herself on the lap of a cloaked figure. Her eyes widened and she scrambled to move away from her savior but it had grabbed her arm.
“Haruhi-kun, stop! Your injured!” It cried trying to calm the girl down, trying to get her out of her hysteria. Haruhi froze as she turned to see Nekozawa, his hood fallen and hair brushed away from his eyes.
“Nekozawa...senpai...” she breathed out before looking around, “please tell me..that was one of your... your tricks....”
“What are you talking about Haruhi? And why are you injured?” He said referring to the injury on her arm.
Haruhi just sighed before she lost her breathe and collapsed onto his chest, passed out from the excitement and fear that flooded through her body.

Chapter 2

Haruhi groaned as she shifted on her side.
“Hey she’s waking up!”
“Shut up Tamaki, she doens’t need to hear your voice so early.” Was that Kyouya?
Haruhi felt a hand place itself on her cheek, “Are you alright Haruhi-chan?”
Haruhi groaned and opened her mouth but nothing but a croak came out as it was dry from lack of water.
“We should get her some water,” one of the twins said, no doubt Kaoru.
“I’ll get it.” Hikaru.
She waited a moment before she felt a hand lift her head and cool liquid go down her throat. She coughed slightly forcing the water away from it as it burned her throat. (It does that, at least with me.) “Wh..at..? Where..am I?” She said forcing her eyes open to see the Host club standing around her and Nekozawa on his knees beside her holding the glass of water.
“Your in the nurses office.” The twins replied together.
“Oh my precious daughter,” Tamaki said coming to her side, “how many fingers am I holding up?”
“Three senpai,” Haruhi replied dryly.
“Haru-chan what happened?” Huni cried tears in his eye looking at her, “Nekozawa-san came running in where we all were gathered with you in his arms and a piece of his cloak wrapped around your arm.”
“Nekozawa....senpai,” Haruhi turned to him and he looked away.
“I figured I’d see if they could help, We needed to get your arm medical attention. And I think Souh-san would be very worried if you just up and disappeared.” He confirmed.
“Thank you Senpai,” she said with a smile making him blush. He helped her sit up before taking his leave. He glanced back to see Tamaki trying to get what happened out of her and the twins and Huni helping him. He caught Mori’s eyes before he left clicking the door shut. Walking down the hall he passed a set of stairs and wondered silently, if she saw the drama that had been held there years ago.

The next morning came and the host club ladies were busy asking Haruhi if she need anything which she then told them no gently. Her foot was wrapped and she was put on crutches since where she had fallen down the stairs it had pushed the bone quite far and the doctors said it would be better if she didn’t take the risk of breaking it by just putting any pressure on it. She still hosted like a charm, the injury only seemed to heighten her hosting. Wen the day was over and the last lady had left she grabbed her stuff and put it on her shoulder before she headed towards the door to leave but she stopped when she saw Nekozawa peering in looking at her. “Nekozawa-senpai,” she called making him tense and leave the door, “No wait, I have to talk with you.” He entered and stayed at the door while she put her bag down, “I have a thank you gift for you in there.” He looked up at her and shook his head.
“I don’t need a thank-you gift,” he tried to explain but she refused to take a no and was going to get it herself before he took her arm and shook his head. He didn’t want her straining herself. He bent down and pulled out a box and the scent of cookies filled his scence of smell. He looked up and cocked his head slightly, “cookies?”
Haruhi smiled and motioned for him to open the box. He did and smiled and chuckled. They were cookies shaped like his favorite puppet. “Thank you Haruhi-chan,” he said looking her in the eyes before Tamaki started making a big deal over him being there and left with one last smile to Haruhi. Haruhi’s heart flustered and she smiled to herself when the door shut a light blush on her face.
