A grouchy hanyō trekked up the stairs with a miffed expression. He frowned as he felt his ears plastered against his head, under the red and blue cap. He grumbled under his breath and his eyes half-lidded in irritation.

The girl who walked beside him sighed heavily, after having a long days work at her "skool." Her school bag was heaved onto her left shoulder, her feet trudging up the cemented steps.

Just as he was about to comment over the fact that "skool" thing she attended made her so exhausted, that she shouldn't even go, the girl had tripped over herself.

With quick reflexes, but not fast enough that she managed to scrap her knee, he held onto her arm. "Wench. You are the clumsiest person in the damn world."

Her blue eyes narrowed as she glared up at him. "Well, I'm sorry! I really don't…pay attention to where I'm going." She crossed her arms and focused her attention somewhere rather than him.

"Keh!" Inuyasha shook his head and helped to steady her on her feet. His eyes softened at the small blood trail that went down her knee.

"Besides, you are there to catch me when I fall, right?" His head shot up to lock eyes with her. She flushed at the eye contact.

Only the cool whisper of the wind blowing around, the rustling of the trees and soft chirping of the birds was heard when he finally answered.

"Always."
