Aya stared at the pink doors, willing herself to reach out and tug the doorknob.
The club was open. It was nearly half past three, and she could hear the lively chattering seeping through the door way.
"Aa-kun, you can always leave." Aya reminded herself, and in a short burst of confidence, she opened the door a crack, and slipped inside.
"Good afternoon, Ikeda-san." Aya jumped, surprised that someone was talking to her. She could feel herself blush, as she turned to see who had spoken to her.
"Ootori-sempai," she managed to squeak out nervously. Kyoya smiled, trying to make her more comfortable, but the grin was so calculated it actually had the opposite effect.
"We've been expecting you. However, Haruhi is completely booked for today." Aya looked down, embarrassed. She knew coming to the club was a bad idea.
"I understand, I'm terribly sorry to take up your time." Aya turned to leave, wanting to get out of there as fast as she could.
"Wait a minute please." Aya froze, she hadn't even gotten to take a step towards the door. "You came in for tutoring, yes?" Kyoya asked. Aya nodded, rocking back and forth on her heels. "Haruhi is busy, but Hikaru and Kaoru are both in your class as well. I'm sure they can help you with whatever you need." Aya shook her head, terrified at the thought of spending time alone with the terrible twins, and bolted towards the door. The students in question, however, were standing in the way and she ran headfirst into the one on the left.
"Of course we'll help, Kyoya-sempai. We don't want to see one of our classmates fail." The one Aya didn't run into spoke up. It was Hikaru, Aya had learned long ago to tell the difference between the twins' voices. She still didn't have a clue how to tell them apart by sight, but she knew when she heard that lower, more mischievous voice, that she was in trouble.
"No, really it's fine. I'll just wait for Fujioka-kun." Aya cried, and jumped away from the brothers.
"Kaoru is great at languages." And before she knew what was happening, Hikaru and Kaoru had grabbed both her arms and were dragging her towards their own corner.
Aya couldn't think of anything worse.
