[[All right, time: just after school gets out]]

Amelia had run out of the building as fast as possible and she was gasping for breath at the front gate preparing to sprint all the way to Haru's home. She sighed slightly and glanced back to see if anyone was following her and no one was.

Delilah had come home early because her boss had told her that she could take the day of, or rather he was firing her. She was beginning to feel rather useless and she sat outside on the step waiting for her sister to come home. She looked sad and a little lost for the present moment, hoping that Shiva would not find out about this dilemma.

Kyoya cursed, he had missed Amelia because he had been in the office. He had fallen and his arms hadn't worked, now he had a stupid bandage on his forhead and looked a mess and ridiculas. He started running to maybe catch her, not a smart idea since the reason he had hurt himself in the first place was running in physical edgucation.
He saw his brother pass but ignored him and kept going.
"She could have waited!"he growled and jay walked across a pass, a car skidded to a halt, "Hey kid! Watch where the hell you goin'!"
Kyoya flicked him off, "Watch where the fuck i'm walking!Dumb arse!"he yelled and kept going.

Amelia heard someone yelling and realize she could have just waited for Kyoya. She realized it and stopped, waiting for him. She felt slightly confuse at the moment and didn't know what to do.

Delilah sighed at the window. She was considering going out to get another job but wasn't motivated at the present time. She was frustrated.

Fast, he was very fast and ran till his long legs came to a hault in front of Amelia. "Heh, thanks for waiting today." he said crossing his arms.

"I'm sorry," Amelia said hurridly and a bit defensively/ "I was getting picked on again and I didn't want you to know about it so I ran. I'm sorry!" She seemed genuinely concerned now and was fidgeting with the straps of her backpack.

"...if someone is picking on you then don't hesitate to tell me, I'll kick their freaking asses! Consider me... hmm... a brother." said Kyoya patting her head softly.

"All right," Amelia said with a smile. "I always wished that I could have a brother." She seemed to have forgotten about the teasing all ready and was impatient to get home. "Come, let's go home!" She said linking her arm with his.

"...ok..."said Kyoya softly. He limped while walking and slightly gripped her hand with his other hand as he walked. But he stared straight ahead strongly and had a smile plastered on his face.

Amelia sighed slightly as they were walking. "I remember one time my mother was making cookies with me and I burnt my finger really bad on the cookie pan because I wasn't using an oven mitt.. and it really hurt so she made it stop hurting and told me to use an oven mitt next time."

"Heh, what a random memory. My mother didn't cook, she tried and ended up lighting the oven mit on fire. Dad had to take over. Come to think of it... I can't remember what she was like anymore. What was your mom like? Was she nice and sweet and very careing?"asked Kyoya. "I bet she was pretty."

"I'm sorry," Amelia said slightly. "I tend to be a bit random, or says my sister. She seemed to fidget again and was excited to get home. "My mother was very pretty though and she took me to school a lot. I miss her every day."

"...yah..."whispered Kyoya as he quickened his odd step. He reached the door to his home and opened it then pausing in the doorway just staring into space.

Delilah had zoned out before the two had reached home and when they did she looked a bit shocked. She sighed though and then glanced at Kyoya. "Hey," she said with a faint, but slightly forced smile. "How was school?"

Amelia was puzzled as she gently went past Kyoya to go hug her sister. "Sister?" she asked. "Why are you at home? Did something happen? Do you have the day off? Did you get fired? Tell me I want to know so that I know if I can stay here." She seemed to almost plead at the questions as tears were forming in her eyes, more out of fear than anything else.

Kyoya looked down at his feet, they werent moving. "...fine...fine...yes...job? Go ask dad...mmm...yes..."he seemed completely oblivious to everything. Then Shiva tackled him from behind which got him moving alright. Luckily he landed on a jacket. "Hello party people! I brought beer!"she seemed to be in a good mood.
"What is everyone's problem?"she asked takeing no notice of her brother groaning at the fact she was even breathing.

Delilah felt a certain resent towards Shiva and ignored her. She didn't like how she treated Kyoya but she decided it would be best if she stayed quiet on that matter. Amelia on the other hand noticed how she had 'tackled' her brother and was tempted to go forward almost immediately.

"Why...aren't you in school?"asked Kyoya.
"No school silly! The holiday's are coming soon! Remember? Yah! Vacation!"yelled Shiva getting on the ground and hugging the life out of her poor brother who was getting really annoyed. He pushed her away and stood back up.
"Yah...that's right, we have the vacation thing. I thought we weren't going this year."Kyoya brushed off his pants.
"Well, we didn't go last year and with our older brothers money, my money, and your money, we can go. All of us, even Delilah and Amelia." Shiva looked extatic.
"Bah...where are we going this year? To the home lands?" he asked.
"Yup! We might be goin to Ireland baby! Woo!"Shiva cheered.
"I have work to do."grumbled Kyoya heading towards his room.
"Pah! Forget homework! Plus it looks like you got a stick up your ass by how your walking-" Kyoya's shoe went flying at Shiva's face.
"Don't make fun of me!" he yelled and they ended up getting into a wrestling match on the floor.
"Um...hello girls. Hungry? I got some after school snacks."said Mr.Haru nervously.

Delilah and Amelia were both silent and weren't watching the interaction between the two siblings. They felt rather separated at the present moment. Delilah shook her head slightly and stood up before walking out the door to go for a walk.

Amelia looked slightly concerned but a snack sounded good. She paused though reluctant to take the offer. Her stomach grumbled slightly but she realized they couldn't pay them back. "I'm sorry Mr. Haru," she said innocently. "I cannot take the snack because we can't pay you back!" She bowed slightly as she started to back towards the front door.

"You do not need to pay us back. You have already offered your service to help around the house and... well we will need help with Kyoya soon." whispered Mr.Haru out of ear shot for his son.
"Tell your sister if she needs a job she can come and work at the bar with me. We need anouther worker anyway."

"All right!" Amelia said saluting slightly. She had a cute innocent air about her that made her fairly pleasant to be around. She was hungry though and her stomach growled again. "Should I help clean up before or after I eat?" She also had a habit of asking stupid questions.

Delilah just wandered aimlessly down the street and bumped into someone she used to date. He looked angry and he pushed her to the ground causing her to hit her head on something. A police man was near by so he helped her up and took her to the hospital, the one where Kyoya's brother worked, but she didn't know that.

"Eat first of cource... Shiva! Kyoya! Stop fighting and let's eat a snack!" ordered the man.
Shiva let go of her brother's collar and Kyoya let go of Shiva's arms, they both stood up.
"I'm going to study."said Kyoya shrugging and going off to his room.
"Eh, fine mr.know it all. Go work your giant brain. Hope it explodes."Shiva said skipping off to the kitchen.

Cast sighed, "Alway's get into trouble like this?" he asked when he saw Delilah.

"Shiva," Amelia calls after her when she was leaving. "Can you help me with my language arts homework?" She would have asked her sister or Kyoya but she was sure Kyoya would say know and it wasn't a good time to ask her sister. She seemed a bit worried about it but wouldn't admit it.

"Eh...I was never good at language arts but why not."said Shiva shrugging. There was a loud bang from upstairs and Mr.Haru blinked as his daughter sat down at the table with Amelia.
"I'll be back. I wonder what that boy did now."sighed the man heading out of the kitchen and to Kyoya's room.

Amelia was very pleased that she could get help so easily. After sitting down next to Shiva she took out her notebook and laid it on the table. Since she was at least two or three years younger than Kyoya it looked much simpler than anything he did. In addition to that she behind a little so it was basic sentence structure and a small essay she had to write about her parents. "I don't know how to write about my parents," she said. "Teacher didn't say anything about what to do if they died."

"That's easy... write about what they were like before they died. Write about how much you loved them or hated them. I had to do this sort of report with Kyoya before and he asked the same thing about mom. It isn't too hard."said Shiva.

Mr.Haru opened his son's room door and looked in, Kyoya was on the floor and he sprinted quickly over. "Hey...what happened? What's wrong?" asked Mr.Haru trying to wake the boy. It looked like he had just collapsed so he put the boy into bed and covered him before laying next to him just in case he woke up.

Amelia nodded slightly and looked down at the paper. "Whenever I think about them I get really sad and it hurts," she admitted. "Now my sister and I don't talk a lot and it gets very lonely because she always looks so sad." A concerned look was on her face as she spoke but she was still thinking about the essay.
