They were doing it again.

Swooning, cooing, and batting their long eyelashes at him in a feeble attempt to gain his attention.

They were always conducting themselves in such a manner whenever he was around. He just had that affect on women.

She sighed.

She should have known better.

She should have guessed that he would have a million other admirers, but it had still surprised her when she saw just how many girls flocked to the redheaded man next to her.

They had even made a fan club for him. She had lost count on exactly how many members the club had because it changed daily. Girls from different prefectures moved to Tokyo just to join the club; to catch a glimpse of the famed Shuichi Minamino.

Kagome couldn't blame them. It was easy to see why they were attracted.

He was smart, handsome, and always a gentleman. He could make elderly women blush with a simple 'hello' and he could make elementary school girls giggle with a smile.

He was perfect. He was everything that Inuyasha wasn't.

Kagome sighed again.

She couldn't compete with all of those girls. They were pretty, witty, charming. She just couldn't compare. There were just too many, and if Inuyasha had taught her one thing while she was in the Feudal Era it was that she was to forever be second best.

So Kagome smiled when he turned to look her way even though she wished, just once, that she was the one that held his attention.
