Hikaru x Kaoru (HikaKao) - Hidden Fears

-Hikaru's POV-

"Ugh..." I groaned, looking at Haruhi, who was in front of me. We were hanging in the rope, and hell, it hurt!

I reached to my side, looking for Kaoru's hand, for his comfort. The second I realized he wasn't there, fear set into my heart.

"Kaoru!" I cried. "I have to find Kaoru!"

"Whoa, whoa." Haruhi mumbled. "Why do you need to find him so bad? He's gonna be fi-"

"No," I cut in, ice running through my veins. I couldn't do this to him. I just couldn't. "Kaoru's deathly afraid of being alone. He breaks down crying, shaking, everything. His body freezes and he can barely move. It's like you with thunder, except - believe it or not, worse."

"Well, you don't have to worry." She mumbled softly, looking at me with wide eyes. She's seen us put on the brotherly act thing, and we DID came out to the club a few months ago, but I've still never done.... This.

"The class rep is with him, so he won't be alone."

"That's not enough!!!" I practically yelled. I knew he would still freak out with an unfamiliar face with him.

"The one time I LEFT HIM, is when he got beat up! We haven't separated since. It scares him so much...UGH!" I grabbed onto the ropes to control the boiling anger rising through my body. "Those idiots! He needs me and I can't be there!"

"Relax, relax." Haruhi tried to convince me. "I'll get us free, I promise. Just try to calm down, I'm sure he'll be fine."

"He better be," I growled. "Or whoever put us in here is sure as hell going to regret it."

-Kaoru's POV-

No.

No no no no.

Please no...

We were trapped, the class rep and I. Hikaru was gone. He wasn't here. My panic begin to slowly set in and I paced the room a couple times, trying to keep it in.

"No no no."

"Um..." Said Kazukiyo slowly, his eyes trailing after me. I could feel my chest fluttering, and my heart beginning to spin out of control. I leaned against the wall, knowing I was loosing control, and began shaking.

"No. Please. No."

"Are you okay man?!?!" The glasses bobbed up as he stood up quickly, as if that was gonna help anything. I tucked my legs into my chest, putting my head in my arms.

"No," I repeated for the sixth time since I had entered the room. "Hikaru..." I felt the sobs wake through my body as I completely froze, finding it hard to breath and move. My body was shutting down, and this is when I had almost died before.

-Flashback-

"STUPID FAGGOT!" He meant to hit my face, but missed. I had ducked, trying to escape. Instead, I made him hit my throat.

I gagged as my lungs closed in on each other, then fell to the floor. I found it hard to breath and do anything as I gasped for air.

"HEY!" Screamed a pissed off voice. "IF YOU DONT GET AWAY FROM MY BROTHER..."

"We messed up..." I heard one of the goons whisper, then the pounding of footsteps as they scurried away from the scene. There was shuffling, and I felt two arms around me, pulling me into his chest.

"Can't," I gasped, still finding it hard to breath. "Breath."

"Don't worry, my god...don't worry." He mumbled, his voice cracking. "They missed. They nicked your throat. Don't worry, Kaoru. People are coming, and your going to be fine." I could hear the uncertainty in his voice. He knew I could die any second from lack of oxygen, but he still held me close, whispering comforting words while my world crashed around me.
