Tap…tap…tap. Mina sat in Math—her favorite only because it was the last class of the day--tapping the end of her pencil on the desk. 'Come on…ring already. I want to go home," she complained in her mind, her eyes focused on the clock. Rei glanced at Mina from the corner of her eyes, looking up from the class work they were supposed to be doing. "You okay?" she whispered softly to Mina, not getting a response. "Mina?" She whispered a bit louder, glancing back at the teacher—who was reading the newspaper—then back at Mina. Glaring softly, Rei crumpled up a sheet of paper and tossed it at Mina, quickly going back to her work as the teacher looked up from the paper.

"Mina…" The teacher said, cocking an eyebrow and glanced at Mina's unopened book and closed notebook. "Yes'sum?" Mina replied out of habit, standing up and looking up at the teacher. When she realized what she had said, she looked down, shaking her head in embarrassment. A few snickers washed throughout the room, Rei rolling her eyes and shaking her head. "Work" Came the sharp reply for the teacher, motioning for Mina to sit back down and work. Obediently, Mina nodded and sat down, opening both her books and getting to work. Rei closed her books and took out a romance novel she had been reading, jotting down ideas for a story on a random piece of notebook paper.

As the bell rang, everyone packed up and stood up, pushing their chairs in. Waiting patiently to be dismissed, Mina scrambled to get her things together. As usual, she was the last out of the classroom, with Rei following close behind. Both girls traveled down the stairs and towards their lockers, only to find Yuki and Kyo waiting for them. "Where're Momiji and Rini?" Rei asked, unlocking her locker to get her outside shoes on and place a few books on the shelf above her shoes. "They said they were going to go and get something to eat, or whatever. Ah, I don't know" Kyo groaned, watching as Mina fumbled with her lock, trying to get it open. "I'm getting hungry. Sigure didn't get up and make us some bentos like he usually does. You guys want to go and grab a snack?" Yuki offered, helping Rei to her feet after she finished putting on her shoes.

Leaning against the locker, Kyo sighed in frustration and pushed Mina back, only enough to get her out of the way. "You take forever" he complained and unlocked Mina's locker. Laughing nervously, Mina put her books up and changed shoes quickly. Yuki and Rei were already waiting outside, Yuki trying to fend off a few fan girls, Rei seeming to grow extremely agitated. Escorting Mina outside, Kyo had his left hand resting on Mina's left hip, her long blonde hair gently sweeping his arm.

As Kyo and Mina approached, they saw Rei's trademark anger position. Her arms were crossed and she was tapping her foot impatiently. Everyone knew when she was mad, and Yuki's fan club noticed. Not wanting to anger her even more, the girls said their goodbyes and hurried away. Yuki sighed in relief watching the group disappear behind the school. Turning back to look at Rei, his face dropped completely. Rei was pouting, on purpose of course. She had her lips pushed out; her arms crossed and gave Yuki the look that got her whatever she wanted. All she wanted right now was to feel like Yuki wasn't interested in his fan club. Rolling his eyes, Kyo pushed Mina along, hearing her giggle as she watched Yuki try and figure out what to do.

Yuki grinned and wrapped his arms around Rei's waist, lifting her up. He softly kissed her, and set her down, pulling her into a tight hug. "Aww…" Mina smiled and glanced back at Kyo, nudging him to look at Yuki and Rei. Smirking softly, Kyo wrapped Mina in a hug and kissed her softly, laughing as he felt her squirm against his chest. Mina liked it when Kyo surprised her like this, but he could at least have given her a warning. Mina pushed away from Kyo softly and ran over to Rei, pulling her out of Yuki's arms. Linking her left arm with Rei's right, they began walking ahead, leaving Yuki and Kyo behind.

Both boys chuckled softly to themselves, looking at each other than looking away quickly. "Heeeey Kyoooo-chaaaan! Yuuuukiii-saaaan!" Sanosuke said, trying to adjust his shoe while running towards the two. Wrapping one arm around Yuki's neck and the other around Kyo's, he went limp, letting the two Sohma's try and keep themselves from falling under his dead weight. "Ugh! What the hell Sano?!" Kyo shouted and dropped Sanosuke's arm, letting Yuki carry around the weight. Yuki rolled his eyes and moved away from Sano, chuckling as he saw the boy try and catch himself. Succeeding, Sanosuke shot a glare at Yuki and Kyo, and then smirked. Taking off in Rei and Mina's direction, Yuki and Kyo knew what he was going to do. They shot a glance at each other then took off running after Sano.

"Get off of me!" Rei screamed, pushing away from a man dressed in all black, a pair of dark sunglasses covering his eyes. Mina struggled against the hold of a broader man in a dark suit, locks of dark brown hair falling over his eyes. "Kyooo-kuuun!!!" she shouted, seeing Sano's shadow get closer with Kyo and Yuki behind him. Rei struggled even more, elbowing the man in the center of his chest. Feeling his grip loosen as he gasped for a bit of air, she did it again, only harder. Thrusting her elbow into the man's chest, she stumbled out of his grip, nearly tripping over her own feet.

Glancing up at Mina, Rei ran towards her. "Mina, duck as best as you can!!" she shouted, grabbing a rock off the sidewalk and throwing it at the man. The rock hit him smack in the middle of the forehead, a small bruise beginning to appear. His grip was loosened and Mina pushed away. Sano was getting closer, his, Yuki's and Kyo's speed increasing as they heard the girls' screams.

"Mina!!" Kyo shouted as Mina ran toward him, throwing her arms around his waist. Kyo growled and held Mina to him, trying to soothe her shuddering body. Yuki ran over to Rei, wrapping his arms around her. "Are you alright?" He asked, knowing that Rei was fine. She nodded. Sano glanced back at the two couples to check if they were alright. Letting out a short sigh of relief, he turned his attention back towards the men. They were gone.

Rei looked at Mina, and back at Yuki, wrapping her arms around his waist. The five of them just stood there in silence. The shuddering of both girls' breaths seemed to be the only sound made between the group.
