Hikaru awoke to the sound of his brother screaming and the raft shaking. “Kaoru, what is it” Hikaru asked launching himself into a sitting position.
Kaoru stopped squirming and sat upright. “I just rolled onto my side that’s all” Kaoru said tenderly. Kaoru tried putting on a smile for his brother. “Sorry if I scared you.”
Hikaru crawled to his brother’s side. “You have to be more careful Kaoru.” Hikaru rested a hand on his brother’s shoulder and moved the other hand towards his brother’s wounds. “Now let’s change your bandages.” There was a deep inhale from Kaoru as the first bandage started. It was half way off when Kaoru let out a painful scream. Hikaru froze instantly and started issuing apologies. The twins sat there silently for a moment before Kaoru nodded at his brother. Hikaru started to continue removing the bandage but once again was stopped by his brother, which also in turn brought a new round of apologies.
“How about I remove them and we’ll go from there?” Kaoru said. He looked down at the gauze and started removing it. He clinched his teeth together and started to remove the gauze. As he removed the gauze he looked up at his brother, who looked as stressed and as pained as he was at that moment. He felt another fluttering inside and quickly removed the rest of the first strip.
As Kaoru began to remove the second strip he realized that the gauze was more discolored and stuck more to the burns than the first one. Kaoru couldn’t help but feel a mixed sense of wonder and disgust at the sight. However the sense of wonder disappeared as he tried to remove the gauze from these stuck spots and ripped a piece from the wound it had seemingly grown into. Kaoru screamed and cussed.
Hikaru grabbed ahold of one of his brother’s hand and encased it between his two hands. Kaoru paused in mid-curse and stared at his brother. “It’s ok Kaoru. Just squeeze my hand as you peel it off and we’ll do it together.”
“I don’t know…” Koaru said. With his free hand he started to pull on bandage again. This time as he did he felt his stomach churn. Once he had swallowed enough bile and saliva to calm his stomach back down he nodded at his brother. “On second thought.”
Hikaru just smiled at his brother and placed a hand in his brother’s hand. “Squeeze it as hard as you need to.”
Kaoru wasn’t sure how this was going to work. Surely there had to be other ways of killing this pain. His thoughts drifted back to what had worked the night before. A sense of despair went through him at the idea that those thoughts were based only what he perceived had occurred the previous night, as he wasn’t sure if it had just been a dream or those kisses were real. Kaoru shook those thoughts from his head as he felt his cheeks heat up. He grabbed the bandage and began to pull, and as he did he felt the skin being pulled with it. Kaoru squeezed his brother’s hand lightly and glanced at him. Hikaru smiled and gave his brother a thumb up in reply. Kaoru pulled on the gauze more and squeezed his brother’s hand tighter. He took a few deep breaths trying to convince himself to just get it over with, with just one large yank of the gauze. After a few more calming breaths Kaoru grabbed ahold of the gauze.
He took a deep breath in.
Yanked the gauze.
Screamed.
Squeezed a helping hand.
Heard Hikaru grunt.
Once Kaoru’s eyes cleared from the tears that had formed in them he looked down and saw that there was only one more gauze strip on his side. He then looked up at his brother who simply gave him another smile.
Kaoru began to remove the third strip and quickly hit another snag, but with a quick tug and another squeeze of his brother’s hand he made it through. The rest of it then peeled off as easy as the first one. He then began to remove the gauze from his left arm but found it a little difficult. He stopped. “Hikaru, would you mind finishing undressing me?”
Hikaru looked at his brother with slightly blushed cheeks. Despite the circumstances, Kaoru smiled knowing that he finally got some revenge for the past few times his brother had made him blush. But Kaoru did have to agree with his brother’s comment from the previous week; blushing did make their shared face even cuter. While these thoughts passed through Kaoru’s mind, Hikaru was carefully unwinding the gauze from around his brother’s left arm.
Once Hikaru was finished and Kaoru was free of dirty bandages, Hikaru looked over his brother. The burns were red and so was the skin that had just had tape torn from it. He looked at his brother, and knew that the burns were causing him distress. “We’ll redress you after we eat something. Besides, those burns should get some time to air out.”
As Hikaru crawled towards the large yellow bag he heard his brother giggle. Thinking nothing of it he continued towards the bag while he still heard his brother giggle. Once he got to the bag he turned around and saw that his brother was beet red in the face and biting his bottom lip. “What’s so funny?” Hikaru demanded?
Kaoru let out a loud laugh. “Feeling a little drafty?”
One of Hikaru’s eyebrows raised, “Drafty?”
Kaoru pointed down towards his brother’s body. “Your ass was hanging out.”
Hikaru looked down. In all the excitement that had occurred since the night before he forgot he was only wearing a robe. Which made him quip in return, “well at least I’m not just wearing flimsy underwear!”
Kaoru didn’t need to look down to know his brother was correct. “Well it’s not like I could wear a shirt right now anyways!”
“No but you could at least put some shorts on.” Hikaru grumbled and went back to gathering items for breakfast. He soon pulled out two energy bars then turned to the mound of clothes and sorted through it. He pulled two shorts and two t-shirts from the pile and tried to smooth them out the best he could. He then crawled over to his brother and handed him an energy bar. “Eat that then you can take another pain pill.”
Kaoru carefully opened the energy bar and scarfed down most of it before he saw his brother wasn’t eating. Instead he was undoing the button and fly on a pair of shorts in order to put them on. “Aren’t you going to eat?”
Hikaru shot a look at his brother, “First I have to get dressed, seeing as someone was complaining!”
The younger twin looked to his right. Empty space. He then turned to his left. Empty space. He then mumbled something that the older twin could not hear before grumpily taking the last bite of the energy bar.
Hikaru laid on his back and slipped the shorts up to his knees. Then he arched his back and finished pulling his shorts all the way up. Once the shorts were on he lowered himself back down where he carefully zipped and buttoned his shorts, after sitting up he slipped on his form fitting t-shirt. Hikaru turned to his brother, “Ok, let’s get you into some shorts.”
Kaoru laid back, making sure to lean towards his good side. He felt the shorts around his ankles and then his brother began to pull them up. Once they had made it around his knees he tried arching his back like his brother did but the burns on his side began to hurt so he raised his back only a few inches. He felt his brother shift positions, now straddling one of his legs. His brother’s hands grabbed the back of the shorts and pushed them across Kaoru’s cheeks. Kaoru gasped as the feeling of his brother’s hands on his ass. Kaoru couldn’t help notice that his brother’s hands lingered after they had finished their job. ‘Perhaps it wasn’t a dream…’ Koaru thought to himself, but when he looked at his brother he had his typical expression on his face. Feeling as if he his imagination was running away with itself Kaoru shook the idea from his head.
Why had these ideas and images popped into his mind recently? And why did these impure desires feel so natural even though everything in his mind told him that it was wrong to desire and think such things and things would be even worse if he ever acted upon them. The first he remembered having such thoughts was at the beginning of the trip after they had taken their showers. Was it because he had seen his brother parading naked through the yacht? That couldn’t be it, as Hikaru had always wandered around their bedroom in the nude after they had taken their showers for as long as he could remember. Koaru had even joined him until their twelfth birthday, and then it was as if he had been “gifted” a minor sense of modesty and no longer joined in on the nude shenanigans. It also couldn’t have been all the jokes and flirtatious remarks either as his brother was always making them, both in and out of the Host Club.
“Can you get the front yourself?” Hikaru asked his brother, snapping him out of his thoughts.
Kaoru just gazed into his brother’s eyes unable to put together a response as he knew he could but he wanted to say that he couldn’t.
Hikaru gave his brother a smile and ran his fingers from their resting spots on Kaoru’s ass along the top of the shorts and they met at the button. Hikaru softly pulled the shorts together and buttoned the top button. His fingers then slowly moved down to the bottom of the zipper. One hand grabbed the bottom while the other one took ahold of the zipper and slowly zipped up the shorts. Kaoru could feel as every tooth of the zipper came together. He was focused on the movements of his brother. He hadn’t noticed that his breathing had changed, or other parts of his body had as well. What he had noticed was that once again his brother’s hands were lingering. Kaoru’s mind began running wild.
Was Hikaru going to tear off the shorts he had just put on him? Was Hikaru going to dry rub him through the shorts? Kaoru’s stomach began to churn both out of nerves and out of disgust that such ideas would pop into his mind.
“You’re blushing again.” Hikaru pointed out.
Kaoru snapped back into reality but was once more at a loss of words.
Hikaru began to giggle, “but then again I would be too if I had to have someone else dress me.”
Kaoru glared at his brother and pushed him away with his free leg. “Don’t be a jerk Hikaru.”
“Oh come on Kaoru, you know I was just joking.” Hikaru said crawling back towards his brother.
“Well I didn’t take it as such.” Kaoru continued to glare at his brother.
The two brothers sat silently, both looking at each other. Neither twin moved.
After a few minutes Hikaru broke the silence, “I’m sorry okay? I didn’t mean to hurt you Kaoru. You know I wouldn’t hurt you on purpose.”
Kaoru’s glare towards his brother softened.
“Now come on, we can bandage you back up and get a shirt on you.” Hikaru said crawling towards his brother.
“I can do it myself!” Kaoru said with a huff.
Hikaru looked at his brother in surprise as he wasn’t expecting his brother to still be so angry.
Kaoru crawled as best he could to the first aid kit and grabbed out the cream and new gauze packs. He slowly unscrewed the lid and squirted some of the cream onto his side, letting off a quiet gasp and a light jump. Although once he began to spread the cream his gasps turned to winces which became louder and more drawn out. As Kaoru applied the cream he could see his brother sitting on the other side of the raft looking on with concern. He gave another huff and opened up the gauze.
As he tried to put the gauze on he could see Hikaru crawling closer. “Just let me help you Kaoru.”
“I said I can do it myself!” Kaoru snapped at his brother. Kaoru was shocked by his own tone because he did want his brother to help him. He wanted to see if the night before was real or just a dream. If it was real he wanted to see if his brother’s lips still made him quiver. He wanted to see if it was true that his brother could kiss away the pain he felt. He wanted his brother, and that is why Kaoru wouldn’t let him get close. If Hikaru got close to him, and played the game he had been playing recently, Kaoru wasn’t sure if he could restrain himself. If he couldn’t restrain himself then he could ruin the relationship he had with his brother, and if he lost that, he would be empty inside as his soul would have left with Hikaru. A harsh attitude was a chance that Kaoru was willing to take, because while he hurt Hikaru’s feelings now, that could be mended in time. Where a surge of passion could be unforgivable.
With tears rolling down his cheeks and off of his chin, and his teeth feeling as if they would break under the stress of his clinched mouth, Kaoru secured the last piece of gauze in place. He looked over at his brother. Hikaru looked hurt, defeated, and depressed. “Hikaru?”
Hikaru blinked.
Kaoru looked at his brother. All unnatural thoughts had left his mind earlier and were replaced with thoughts of pain. And now they too had been replaced with worry for his brother. Carefully Kaoru crawled over to his brother, “Hikaru, what’s wrong?” As Kaoru got closer he could see tears clinging to the corners of Hikaru’s eyes. Kaoru reached out and took one of his brother’s hands in his. “Hikaru?”
“Don’t make me watch you be in so much pain again. Especially not when I can help.” Hikaru said roughly as his voice was scratchy.
Kaoru began to process his brother’s last statement, ‘Did he mean he could have doctored me up again, or did he mean that he knew how to distract me from the pain’. The latter option gave Kaoru pause as he felt some dreams fade away. ‘If Hikaru did kiss me last night, then it was because he didn’t want me to feel pain, not because he feels anything for me.’ Kaoru gently pulled his hand from his brother’s. “I’ll try not to…”
The two twins then sat there silently for some time. Lost in their own thoughts, they floated on the vast waters of the ocean.

Kaoru groaned as a flash of light shown through his closed eyelids. “Hikaru, why didn’t you just let that camera burn with the yacht?”
Hikaru looked at his brother slightly hurt, “It’s preserving memories.”
“I don’t think I’ll have any troubles remembering what happened.” Koaru growled.
Hikaru wanted to remind his brother that it wasn’t just the fire that he had taken pictures of, that the camera now was the only thing that remembered just how happy and carefree they both had been before, but decided that it wasn’t the best time to argue with his brother. Instead he complied with his brother’s silent wish and tossed the camera in the bag out of his reach.
Hikaru’s head perked up, “Do you hear that Kaoru?”
Kaoru didn’t look at his brother but instead looked at the door of the raft. He nodded.
Hikaru clambered to the door and flung the flap of plastic open. He squinted briefly at the brightness of the light but his eyes quickly adjusted. Far on the horizon he could see a small black dot moving along the clouds. “It’s a helicopter alright. Kaoru, throw me the flare gun!”
Hikaru had turned just in time to see the flare gun sailing through the air at him, as to no surprise, his brother was already on the same page that he was. He caught the gun in the air and leaned out the door and aimed the gun into the sky. He pointed the gun into the air and pulled the trigger. With a bang the flare shot into the sky, leaving a thick trail of smoke behind it. It soared through the sky, past a couple of frightened birds, where it exploded into a cloud of red smoke and light. Hikaru pulled himself back into the raft, “Kaoru can you…”
Kaoru began poking his brother with the spy glass.
“Thanks.” Hikaru said taking the item from his brother. After a brief search for the helicopter he found it with the spy glass. He could see the helicopter clearer and saw that it had altered its course and was now headed in their direction. He smiled. He watched as the helicopter filled up more and more of the spy glass. However, his smile suddenly soured and he turned to his brother. “Kaoru toss me another flare!”
“What’s wrong Hikaru? Did they not see the first one? Are they turning away?” Kaoru responded.
“Nothing is wrong Kaoru.” Hikaru turned his head slightly towards his brother, revealing a large grin on his face. “It’s just that Tamaki is on the helicopter and I want to see if I can hit him.”
Kaoru began to giggle, which turned into a laugh which turned into a wince of pain. He stopped laughing.
Hikaru dropped the spy glass and rushed as the best he could to his brother. “Are you alright Kaoru?”
Kaoru stared at his brother, the light coming through the open flap made his brother’s hair shine and made shadows dance over his face. It then dawned on Kaoru how close his brother was. Again Hikaru was close enough that Kaoru could feel the warmth emitting from him, and feel his breath as it brushed against him. Kaoru began to blush, “mmm…I’m fine.”
The worried look on the elder twin’s face vanished as a smile grew on his face. “Kaoru…”
Kaoru’s heart quickened. His brain, once more, began to think of so many sought after fantasies, as well as all too real memories of the recent past. When Hikaru’s fingers laid against his chin and lifted his head so that he looked into his brother’s amber eyes Kaoru began to blush profusely. He tried to quell the battle that raged inside of him but it grew larger and larger every time his brother did something such as this.
“…Kaoru, I just wanted you to know that I have cherished all this time that we’ve spent alone these past days. I know we don’t spend as much time with just ourselves as we used to, and the times that we do always seem to pass so fast. So I’m glad that we’ve created memories that we can always escape into if in the future we need each other but we’re separated.”
A million thoughts and responses ran through Kaoru’s head as he thought of how to respond to his brother, but they were all silenced as he felt his brother’s hot lips press against his own. Kaoru’s mind began to fog, and the only part of his mind that could think clearly was relishing in the moment. His brother’s lips weren’t smashed against his like they had been the other night, instead they were softly moving against his, yet Kaoru could still feel the passion that his brother held.
Wind started to blow through the open flap sending a chill through the air, while waves began to crash against the side of the raft and the roar of the helicopter became almost deafening. Hikaru broke the kiss and stared into his brother’s eyes for a moment. He then tussled his brother’s hair, and said, “let’s go home” although it was mostly drowned out by the sound of the helicopter. Both brothers smiled at each other looking forward to the life that was now laid before them.
