     "So are you boys all alone here?" Mother asked the twins, our new neighbors. We were all sitting in my kitchen, eating cookies.

     Hikaru sighed, looking a little under-the-weather. "Yes we are. Our mother is on a trip around the world, currently in Paris, France."

     "And Father is with her," Kaoru finished. "So we're quite lonely." The boys sighed in unison.

     "Oh, you poor things," Mom looked genuinely upset for these two. "Well, you've got us now. Come to us if you ever need some company, okay? Right, Ellie?"

     "Uh, right, yes. We'll be the best of friends, mhmm," I said, just to humor her, while rolling my eyes.

     We all starting laughing lightly, then settled down once again.

     Kaoru looked at his brother, then at me. "Hey, Ellen. Would you like to show us around town sometime soon? Like, tonight?"

     "Um, yeah, I guess so. Mom?" I asked her.

     Mom sighed. "Yes, I suppose so. We don't have anything else to do tonight, so why not? Just be back by 10:30, 'kay?" She smiled at us.

     "Of course, Ms. Willowfields," the twins said together.

     As we turned to leave the kitchen - me, to show the boys out - mom suddenly called us back.

     "Hikaru, Kaoru, do you boys have a car?" she asked them.

     They grinned at each other mischievously, over my head. "Yes, you could say that, Ms. Willowfields," they replied together. "So we'll drive, and you just give us directions, Ellen?" Kaoru asked me, smiling.

     Turning to answer him, I just barely saw a look that Hikaru gave his brother. It was startling, considering how well they seemed to get along, to see such a grim look aimed at one from the other. Just brushing it off as a mistake of the light, I replied to Kaoru. "Sounds like a plan. Although, I must warn you: I am an uncontrollable part animal." I said the last part with a completely serious face.

     We ended up laughing again, as I showed the Hitachiin brothers out. Laughing a little to myself, I ran upstairs to get ready for my "double-date"-of-sorts.

     "Ellie, Hun, they're here!" Mom hollered up the steps, after I heard the front door shut.

     Putting one more pin in my barely-shoulder-length, redish-orange hair, I replied, "Comin'!"

     Looking myself over in the mirror one last time, I smiled at my outfit choice. My favorite slim-fit, V-neck movie t-shirt (the Avengers, of course); white shorts; and white high-tops. The high-tops were specially designed by me, for me, with fabric markers; they had a few characters from my favorite show, Sakura Kiss, portrayed on their sides.

     Running downstairs, I stopped at the bottom. With enough time to calm and compose myself, I stepped off the stairs and greeted the twins with a lazy grin.

     "Ready to part, boys?" I asked, quirking one eyebrow up.

     They grinned back at me. "You know we are, L."

     Mom stepped up next to us. "Just remember: 10:30, okay?"

     "Yeah, of course, mother, "I grumbled, leading the way out the front door and up the driveway. Turning around, I waved "bye" to mom, before laying eyes on the brothers "car".

     "Holy shit," I spit out. For right there in front of me, was the nicest car I had ever seen. A sleek, black Porsche, with leather interior.

     The twins came up behind me, stopping with one on either side. Smirking, Hikaru said to me, "Nice, isn't she? Well, let's go then."

     Kaoru opened up the passenger door for me, and shut it when I got in. He took the driver's seat, leaving Hikaru in the back all alone. "Where to, Miss Navigator?" Kaoru asked.

     I thought for a moment, then replied with a grin, "The best night club in town: Nightmare."
