Chapter 21 | February

--about a month later--

~Third Person POV~

Hikaru snorted as he and Kaoru made their way down to Music Room 3.

Kaoru looked at his brother. "What's so funny?" he asked.

Hikaru tried to contain his laughter as best as he could. He was failing. "N-Nothing...! It's nothing, really...!" He snorted again. Kaoru then noticed he was looking at something on his phone.

Kaoru looked over his twin's shoulder to see it. "What are you looking at???" he questioned.

Hikaru yanked his phone away. "Nothing." he answered a bit quickly.

Kaoru didn't buy it. He immediately snatched Hikaru's phone away and looked at it. He gasped slightly.

It was a picture of himself and Arabella, all huddled up in the sleeping bag from their sleepover on New Years Eve.

He also noticed he was looking at Hikaru's Instagram page.

Kaoru's eyes widened. "This... this is on Instagram?!" he shouted.

Hikaru laughed nervously. "Hehehe...! Surprise...! I've had this picture since New Years Eve. I saw you and Arabella sleeping together in the sleeping bag and I just couldn't resist! In fact, just last night, I finally worked up the nerve to post it on Instagram!" he said.

Kaoru's eyes flared angrily. "Tell me that's the ONLY thing on the internet you put it on...!"

Hikaru snorted again. "Of course...! I only put it on Instagram... and Twitter... and Facebook... and Tumblr..."

Kaoru glared. "WHAT?! Why would you do that?!" he demanded.

"Because! You and Arabella are adorable together! When, Kaoru, when will you freaking grow a pair and just ask her out and DATE HER already?! Everyone knows you like her! And everyone knows she likes you! Just give in already!" Hikaru said.

Kaoru huffed. "For the LAST FREAKING TIME: I do NOT, repeat, DO NOT have feelings for Arabella in ANY remote way, shape, or form!!! Get that through your thick head, Hikaru! PLEASE!"

Hikaru shook his head. "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Kaoru... This is just sad now... This is officially sad now... I didn't think you could bury yourself any deeper in denial, but apparently I was so wrong..." he mumbled.

"Yeah! You are wrong about something: I DO NOT LIKE ARABELLA! DO NOT! AT ALL! And, why would you POST SOMETHING like THAT on SOCIAL MEDIA?! Huh?! Why?!" Kaoru snapped.

"Don't blame me! You should be thanking me; Kaobella is now this school's number one ship. The picture of you and Arabella I posted on Twitter already has more than three hundred likes and re-tweets! And the comments are priceless! Apparently, everyone agrees with me that you and Arabella should be dating already and should've gotten together a LONG TIME AGO... Would you look at that! I'm totally RIGHT. Ha!" Hikaru said with a lighthearted laugh.

"Jeez... no wonder everyone was staring at me all funny when we arrived here earlier this morning...," Kaoru mumbled. "And, when did you even get the chance to take the stupid picture???"

Hikaru smiled. "Oh please, that was the easy part..."

Hikaru was the first one up. Everyone else was still fast asleep.
