Can You Tell the Difference? [Hikaru x Reader x Kaoru]

Prologue

Unedited

Hikaru And Kaoru sat in the window of their middle school classroom. The both of them were second years right around now. They watched as yet another girl, holding a note and smiling wide was waiting for them. The twins sighed. Yet another boring confession. Maybe they could toy with this girl like they toy with the others? Yet that game would be boring sooner or later. Kaoru looked up at Hikaru, who stared st the girl outside.

"Hikaru, what should we do to this one? Rip up her letter? Trick her with a substitution trick?"

Hikaru sighed. He was getting bored of this little routine they had going on right here. It wasn't exactly fun any more to take a girl's letter and just rip it up in her face. The tears didn't seem fun any more. Laughing at the pathetic girl wasn't fun any more. But what was much more than that, having another girl be indifferent about whcih twin she'd date or not be able to tell the two apart would be another great didsapointment and heartbreak in Hikaru's heart. And being Kaoru's twin brother, he knew he felt the same.

"Nah. Let's just see how long she will keep standing there. Maybe she'll get bored like us and just leave. I don't want to deal with another one today."

Hikaru leaned his back More towards the wall, continuing to watch outside of the window. The girl was looking around for the sign if Hikaru. The letter was placed on his desk after all. But it could have been meant for Kaoru all the same. He didn't even bother to read it. Kaoru did though, but he didn't care if his brother didn't care. Kaoru frowned and slid over closer to Hikaru. He put his hand over his twin's, lashing him a comforting smile.

"Don't worry Hikaru. I'm sure one day someone will be out there who can tell us apart. I'm sure of it."

Hikaru smiled. He wasn't sure if that was true. That maid could be right, or wrong. But most likely she was right. Nobody has ever played the "which one of us is Hikaru" game and won before. Nobody has and nobody will. Still, seeing his twin so full of hope brought a smile to his face. As long as Kaoru was happy, he was happy. He looked back over to the girl, who slouched over and was leaving. Oh? She gave up quick. Hikaru shook it off like it was nothing. People don't get close to them anyways. He looked back a ton shin cincerned brother and flashed him a smile to show him he was alright.

"Yeah, I'm sure of it."
