Differences - Kaoru x reader

Chapter 12

Being carried was one thing. But being carried into someone else's house was another. But being carried by a boy into a large stately manor and being greeted by his maids and butlers and then him taking you upstairs whilst the world felt like it was spinning. Well... I don't even know. He set you down and left, before coming back with a ton of blankets and tucking you in. You were rather unsure of what to do, but you felt so off you just went with it. He got out a DVD and put on some random film, and just sat next you, trying to let you drift off. You smiled and felt yourself leant into him. You looked up to see him yawn too.
"K-Kaoru?" He looked down at you, tearing his eyes from the TV that sat in front of the bed.
"You didn't sleep last night, did you?" He looked away from you, avoiding the question. You smile, sitting up slightly and pulling out the blankets from cocooning you in. You wrap him in with you, making him turn back at you.
"You've done far too much worrying. Now, it's my turn." You smile at him, seeing the gratitude in his eyes. You snuggle into his chest and feel the time catch up with you as the darkness engulfs you senses and leaves the day behind.


You sit up to a loss of heat. Your vision clears, making earlier flow back into your head as you look around for Kaoru. You frown and pull off the blankets that were enveloping you. Your dress was creased and shaped oddly around you from sleeping so long in it. You saw a note sitting on top of a small pile of clothes and picked it up in curiosity.


Dear Miss,

One of the young masters said you would be staying over, and had no other clothes, so I found some spare items the mistress no longer uses. The dining room is the third door on the right at the bottom of the stairs. Master Kaoru and Master Hikaru should be there when you wake.

You find yourself smile lightly as you scan the . It seemed to be a rather nice, so you put it on, and wandered down the large house to where you had been directed. You could hear voices in the other room, seemingly Kaoru and Hikaru. You let the door open slightly, not wanting to interrupt them, but still being curious.
"Why did you not tell me you'd come back?!" Hikaru asked. Kaoru looked at him, seemingly angry at him, though he'd done nothing.
"I'd been worrying about her since she disappeared, for once, realise that my thoughts aren't always centered around you." You felt alittle guilty, it seemed as if it was your fault.
"I realise that. But I thought you'd at least tell me that you'd found her, or that you weren't coming to school." Hikaru was starting to retaliate. You sighed to yourself.
"I shouldn't have to. I'm not the only friend you have anymore." Kaoru seemed awkwardly set on defending you. You didn't know whether to blush or get angry at him for being so stubborn.
"Is there a reason why you're watching through the door to the dining room?"
