"A friend is someone who is there for you when he'd rather be anywhere else."
- Len Wein - Sent by Paulo Louro

It's good to know my friends are always there for me. I mean, no one believed me when I told them I was going to kill the bastard who broke my heart. But really, when I sliced that man's arm, till he fainted from the blood lose, only my true best friend went to jail with me. We were only in it for a day and a half... but hell.

he's the only one that came into my life, and stayed in it.

"Kaida!" I turned just in time to see a blurr wrap his arms around me. Sobbing happily. "Keigo!" I yelped as the arms tighten around my waist and pulled me closer. I sighed, knowing really well that my long-time friend, would never let go of me. I mean, he had been there when my ex boyfriend hadn't listen to me. I had beaten the shit out of him, with a little help from my best friend. My arms were wrapped around his neck, and when he pulled away I sighed and cracked my back in protest. "No more hugs, Keigo... so what's got you so happy today?" I asked, glancing around, looking for his little guy friends. Good, they weren't here, yet. "You got me out of detention, silly!" I groaned and swatted Keigo's head, laughing to myself silently.
"I'd do it for you any day, old pal." I nudged his shoulder as we continued towards are homeroom. After this class, we'd head for lunch. Beautiful. I

lunch, I never ate, Orihime shared her lunch with me, just cause I always visited her. It was nice, to have a really close girl, as my second and third best friends. Keigo, however, was enough for me to handle. I felt a nudge against my shoulder and I grunted as I tripped over my to feet, landing square on the ground. "Okay, who the-" I looked up and froze. My eyes wide as I notice the bully of the school, the guy who'd I been afraid of since the day me and Keigo came to this school. I gulped. "What was that, Kagome?" He questioned me. Keigo had vanished. possibly to get help. "Screw off, Midorikawa." I snapped, as I crawled backwards away from him.

"Nah, I rather screw on." His voice was laced with disguise, and yet, a hint of that dark, black tone he used with me. "Then again, no one would want to touch you." He said, lingering on the words, touch, and you. I flinched, crawling back farther, trying to get away, when the wall hit my back. 'Fuck! Hurry Keigo!' My thoughts as I tryed to get my hand into my bag, just a few steps off. I kept my eyes locked on Midorikawa Ryuo's soulless green eyes. It was like the lush green hill and sky meeting. Light blue, vs, grass green. I felt his hands grasp my hand yanking me up , I knew there was going to be a bruise, or pulled muscle in my shoulder now. Blinking I watched him raise his fists and hit me in the stomach. I grunted and kicked at him, before he threw me against the wall.

I slide down the wall slowly, holding my stomach. "Mr. Ryuo, please follow me." I turned my face to see the teacher from down the hall, come over to Midorikawa, who pointed at me, and made a single he would kill me. I gulped, and felt hands on my shoulder. Noticing, not Keigo, but Ichigo helping me up. "Thanks... Ichigo... where is Keigo?" I asked, looking for my hyper-active friend. "Oh Keigo slipped on a puddle, hit his head, before I took him to the nurse he told me about your problem. Thought I help. Seems like you got more bruises to go with the one on your fa- where did it go?" I blinked, touching my face, the bruise was gone. Looking away, I pulled my shirt up slightly to look over my stomach. A bruise was forming, and I groaned in annoyionce. "I get rid of one, and another one forms. Just get... anyways. Thanks again Ichigo." I started away.

"Where are you going, home room is this way." I stopped, looked at Ichigo, and pouted. "But Kei-" He stopped me, and waved it off, giving one of those rare smiles, it made me sigh, and I started after Ichigo. "If he complains I didn't go see him, I'm blaiming it on you." I snapped, my eyes dark, dangerous. Ichigo, rolled his eyes, face as hard as stone again. "Yeah, yeah, go ahead and tell your lies. Doesn't bother me." And we entered the class room together, my hair messed, my clothing disleveled, and a whole new set of rumors grew in seconds.

Forcing myself to look up at the clock, my stomach started growling. I felt a piece of paper nudge my arm and slowly, reached behind me, eyes on the teacher every second, until the paper was on my desk, and I opened the paper. Smiling. Orihime and I had been chatting non-stop about what had happened to me in the hall. Appartently, Orihime had already heard something 'bout me and Ichigo having a quickie in the closest. I laughed at the thought, as it came to my mind again. And not those mind laughs, and right out in the middle of class, laugh. Heads turned, and I sighed, holding the note for all to see. It was in three seconds the teacher was by my desk, and the note was in my notebook with a bunch of my fake notes, I made in case of things like this.

"Miss. Kagome, the note please." I groaned, and took out the first, spare note I had and pushed it into our teacher's hands, and watched as she went red in the face from embarrassment. "Miss Kagome, office, now." I climbed to my feet, giving Orihime a smile, she blushed. Knowing full well what was in my picture of paper. A picture of our teacher, sitting at her desk, with a lust filled expression as she glanced at the eldest member of are class, Hasegawa Tomohisa. I started towards the door, my note in hand to show the office, at the same moment, Keigo stepped in. "Mr. Asano, office as well." I waited at the door, eyes twitching as I saw, the three triplets, the Asuka sisters, lean in and whisper to each other. "But-" Keigo began, but the teacher gave him a hard look, and I patted his shoulder.

"Don't worry Keigo, We will find a place to belong soon enough. Hell I have no- We're going, gees!" I snapped at the teacher as she pushed us through the door, and slamed it behind us. "Okay, what did I do." Keigo stated, and I held the note out, and Keigo, took a single look and bursted out laughing. I patted his shoulder, giving him a pointed look, before laughing as well. We started down the hall way.

I sat down next to Keigo and Orihime, across from the others. My head lowered so they couldn't see my face. Orihime passed me her sandwich, which was peanut butter with chocolate chip cookie crumbs. I crewed the sandwich, watching as the boys looked at me with a slight disguise. "What?" I asked, crumbs falling from my mouth as I spoke. "Kaida, it's not nice to talk with your mouth full." Chad spoke, in his low, mysterious, but kind voice. I gave a sweet smile, before nippling on the edge of the sandwich. I swallowed and then looked at the group. "So-" I begain, before noticing, Midorikawa Ryuo wiggling his finger at me to go over. I chanced a glance at the group. Only Chad's hidden eyes were on me. Putting my sandwich down, I wrapped it up and handed it back to Orihime, who put it in her lunch bag. "I'll be right back. Bathroom." I stated quickly.

I followed the already around the corner, Midorikawa and when I saw him, standing in over me at around 6'4, I shivered and took a step back. "Now, now, Kagome. Your gonna do as I say, for getting me detention." I flinched as I felt his hand clasp down on my shoulder, and the only thing I did was rip myself from his grasp. "Kagome." His voice was hard, violent, and I shivered, but I pulled my touch frame forward and swung at the man's test. Eyes widening as I was pushed against the wall. My eyes widen, even more when he leaned forward, near my lips, but not against. Midorikawa looked into my eyes and snapped into a violent rage.

Then his lips touched mine in a harsh, violent way. I thrashed around beneath him. Kneeing him in the crouch, I pushed him down, tears littering my eyes as I rushed away. His hands wrapped around my ankle, making me fall face first. By this time, I had screamed, a quick help me, and heard a storm of feet coming my way. Midorikawa was holding me to the wall, in a mere matter of seconds. His words were harsh. "You'll be a good little whore, unless you want your mama dead." Before I could question him, he ran down the steps and out of the school yard. A minute later, Keigo, Ichigo, Orihime and the rest of the gang were around me. "What happen?" Keigo asked, and I myself, asked the same thing.
