Chapter 3: Candy Store
Two weeks later
Kagome flew down the stairs and outside in the backyard. Whistling, and not before long, multiple barks she did a head count and frowned. She was about to whistle again when the last dog came. After counting the final dog, she set them off once again, making sure they had enough food and water to last a whole day. Her brothers were away on business and she was late to school.
Grabbing a random apple and two bananas she found in her haste, she ran towards the garage, and cursed remembering that Houndoom was in the auto shop for the yearly check up. Looking at her choices she muttered another colorful curse. Closing her eyes she grabbed a random key and looked at it, cursing once again she opened the garage door and went to the respected car to throw her Kendo bag in the trunk. She adjusted the seat and steering wheel to her level and drove out pausing to remotely close the garage door.
Selecting the twin's address, who gave her at the end of practice last week, on the GPS system, she tapped her fingers against the steering wheel as she waited for the light to turn green. Realizing that it was quiet, she hooked up her iPhone to the car while keeping an eye on the light. She put the playlist to shuffle and smiled as Linkin Park's 'Burn it Down' played through the stereo. Stepping on the gas once the light turned green, she made her way towards Kyo's house.
Once there, she once again took in the two story traditional Japanese house. She still couldn't see the house clearly as it was blocked by bars and trees but she recognized some of its features; such as wooden framing, pebbled pathway and the traditional front wooden door.
She didn't have to wait long as the twins were out once she arrived. She ate the apple while popping the trunk open as they placed their duffel and shinai bags in the trunk and muttered "Ohayo Master." to Kyo, who sat in the front, and a regular "Ohayo" to Kyoshiro, who sat in the back.
"Where's Houndoom, Kagome-chan?" Kyoshiro asked from the backseat.
"He's in the auto shop for the yearly checkup." She replied, glancing at him from the rear view mirror.
"Whose fancy car is this?" Kyo asked, looking at the interior.
"Mine." She sighed. "But I rather drive Houndoom."
"Why?" Kyoshiro couldn't help but ask.
"Because I'll get a lot of stares driving this car." She said, pouting then glaring at Kyo when he snorted.
"Then don't drive it."
"It was this or Lucian."
Both twins raised an eyebrow. "Who's Lucian?"
"What. Lucian is a SUV that I hope I wont use any time soon." She muttered "A birthday gift from my three brothers."
The brothers let the conversation go, seeing how she isn't going to answer any more questions. She once again tapped her fingers along with 4FRNT remix of Gotye 'Somebody That I Used to Know' as her car vibrated at the heavy bass it emitted.
As the song finished, another one sounded through the speakers; Tiësto & Wolfgang Gartner 'We Own the Night' ft. Luciana. Bobbing her head along the rhythm, she softly sang along as she spotted the group at the café across the school and tapped her horn twice ignoring the looks at her car and more after she honked her horn. Opening her window, she waved as the song filled the air, drawing more stares.
Turning into the school's parking lot, she parked at the same place and got out as the rest of the crew rushed over. Benitora once again drooled at her car as she popped the trunk for the duffel bags.
"Morning!" She exclaimed, waving and she couldn't help but laugh at Benitora's face.
"This… This… this is… Oh my god." He whispered, half hyperventilating as he roamed her car.
"Breathe, Benitora-senpai, breathe." She said, locking her vehicle. "I'll let you look at its engine once we're done with Kendo."
She couldn't help but laugh at the crestfallen eyes, 'It's like saying no to a kid who wanted to go into the candy store.' and walked by as she grabbed her own duffel bag and Kyo's dropping them off at the dojo.
A couple of meter's away stood the same group of girls from yesterday. They glared at Kagome. "What are we going to do, Kikyou-sama?" one girl asked.
Kikyou; head president of the Yukimura, Kyoshiro and Kyo fan club, bit her thumb nail in annoyance until a thought came towards her, making her smile.
"Listen…" She began to explain her plan and the rest of the group couldn't help but laugh evilly at the unsuspecting victim.
In homeroom, Kagome couldn't help but glare at the wrinkled piece of paper which Kyo gave her two weeks ago, the day after she lost to him, telling her of her servant duties.
Yo, servant girl,
I have some rules for you to follow along.
Number one: Always address me as Master or Almighty One or Danna.
Number two: Make me bento for lunch everyday.
Number three: Everyday pick me up and drop me home.
Number four: Carry my things to class.
…
She remembered at the very end that she was boiling with anger. She ripped the piece of paper to shreds, and was given another one at Kendo pratice when he knew she ripped it up.
Making her way towards her calculus class, she slid the door open and was about to march towards Kyo's seat until she realized that he wasn't there. Blinking, she made her way towards the seat and staring at it, hoping it'll tell her the answer. Hearing chuckling next to her, she turned her attention to Yukimura, staring at her with his head in his hand.
"Where's Kyo?" she asked, pointing at the empty seat.
"Skipping, I would presume." He replied watching her set her books down on the desk before Kyo's.
The class became quiet as their teacher walked in and called out the student's names in attendance.
"Mibu Kyo." He called out. Receiving no answer he looked up from his attendance and frowned. "Did anyone see him today?"
"He's skipping as usual." Someone replied.
"Troublesome brat." Their teacher couldn't help but mutter as the class sweat dropped.
"Lets see… Is Taisho Kagome here?" He called out.
"Here!" she replied, standing up and tilting her head, a questioning look on her face. Her name wasn't after Kyo's and she dreaded what was going to come out of the teacher's mouth.
"Ah, Higurashi-san," he said, holding the roll call to his side. "I need you to go find Kyo for me and bring him to class. You guys practice in the same Kendo dojo right?"
Muttering a "Hai." She looked questioningly at Yukimura who only pointed towards the roof. Sighing, she walked out of the classroom as it resumed its roll call. Making her way towards the roof, she slammed the door open and looked around. Seeing no sign of him, she walked around, wondering if he was behind corners or hiding. Seeing a leg behind a wall, she made her way there. Turning the corner she opened her mouth and was about to shout at him until she noticed that his arm thrown across his eyes.
Blinking, she nudged his leg with hers thinking he was fake sleeping it but he didn't respond. "Kyo." She said, nudging his leg again.
Getting no response, she made her way to his side and poked him on his side. When he didn't flinch, she began to prod and nudge, hoping that he'll wake. Pinching his nose, she waited to see if he'll wake up that way but her hopes were crushed as his mouth opened and emitted small puffs of air.
'Oh, how cute.' She thought then quickly kicked the thought into space. This was the man who made her everyday hell and not to mention who bossed her around. But still, her eyes softened at his image. "Not quiet such a bad guy when your asleep, eh, Kyo?" she quietly muttered.
She got up but was quickly pulled down when a hand grabbed hers. Squeaking, she fell onto his chest and squawked in outraged as he flipped them over so that he was on top. Gathering her bearings, she glared up at him thinking he was awake but was soon flabbergasted when she realized he was still asleep.
Growling and snarling she wiggled and squirmed around while pushing his chest, hitting his head, pulling his hair, she realized that he wasn't going to loosen his hold. Huffing, she settled down in his arms and couldn't help but relax then looked around, making sure no one was watching. Softening her expression, she couldn't help but give up.
"Like the saying 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do'." Squirming she made her self comfortable and gave into the warmth of his heat and fell asleep, not noticing the flash of smirk on his lips.
Kagome woke up with her head on something soft but firm. Rubbing her nose against a soft material, she yawned. Still blurry-eyed, she stretched. Then suddenly became stiff when she felt a hand on her butt which started to squeeze. Screaming, she pushed away from the figure scooted away pointing at the now waking Kyo.
He sat up, rubbing his hair and yawned. Looking towards his left, he blankly stared at her. "What, ugly?"
Sputtering in rage, she crawled on all fours and poked his chest, hard. "You grabbed my butt!" she cried, ignoring his favorite nickname for her.
Snorting, his eye began to drop into the opening of her shirt. "I did no such thing." He told her, still eyeing the set of breasts, she was unknowingly and permitting him to see.
"Yes you did!" she cried out, in outrage. "Just now."
"And now I'm looking down your shirt." He stated. "What size are you?" he asked, grabbing her around her waist and pulled her towards him, his hand on her breast squeezing. "Hm… 34C?"
Gasping in outrage, her hand flew towards Kyo's face and she left him on the rooftop with her hand print on his cheek. Looking at his hand, he recalled how her breast felt in his and flexed his fingers inwards, remembering the firmness. Standing up, he stretched and yawned, going back down the stairs. Opening the door to the classroom, he saw Kagome's bowing form, apologizing to the teacher for missing the class while looking for Kyo and he couldn't help but walk up behind her, also bowing ignoring the look the teacher was giving him.
Kagome could feel his heat hovering over her form and clenched her teeth. As they straightened up, she pushed the smirking male away from her and went to grab her wallet for lunch.
Stomping her way towards the cafeteria, she ignored the male trailing a few feet behind her. After stomping a few distances, a voice broke her train of thought.
"Do you even know where the cafeteria is?" his voice reached her and she couldn't help but sheepishly turned towards him.
Kyo sighed and gestured her to follow him. Walking thought a couple of hall ways and classroom, a familiar aroma reached her nose and her stomach growled. Kyo turned towards her and she blush beet red at the look her gave her stomach. Kagome continued to follow him, not realize that they speeded up. Reaching a set of large doors that muffled the noises in the cafeteria, Kyo opened the door and Kagome stepped back when the noises escalated.
Students were everywhere as were cliques at their own table. Walking in, she took in the high ceiling which held chandeliers every few feet or so. The walls were rich dark brown color as windows and sliding glass doors, which exited towards the gardens. On the right side of the door were the food counters.
Skipping in and in awe, she ignored the small chuckle Kyo emitted watching her go and look at the food sets the school provided for them, 'Like a kid in a candy store.'
Walking over to the waving Kagome, who came and tugged him since he was "Walking too slow."
Looking over the set of meals, she couldn't choose any; they were all too delicious looking. Seeing Kyo already at the register telling the cook what he wanted, "What do you want?" He asked.
"I have no idea." She mumbled, relooking at the set of foods, "They're so many of them." And went back to looking. Kyo tapped his finger against the counter growing agitated by each second.
"Hurry up and choose." He glared at her.
"Then you chose for me!" She yelled back.
Rolling his eyes, he ordered for her, having her paid, getting a number for their food, and went to pick a table to sit at while waiting. Feeling bored, she took out her cell phone and opened up a game to play while waiting.
Unknown to them, the same fan girls from yesterday, a couple of table away from the duo. One took a look at the leader and seeing her approval, she let it go.
Kagome was engrossed in the game when suddenly her gamings were put to a stop when something smacked against the back of her head with a splat. Blinking as she registered what happened, everyone in the cafeteria instantly froze. Turning slowly, she estimated where the food was thrown from which direction and her eyes landed on the same girls from yesterday. Standing up, she went to a trashcan while keeping eye contact on the girls.
With lightening reflexes, the garbage food was thrown at the girls.
"Food fight!" Someone shouted and all humanity was lost.
She ducked behind some flipped over table and glanced around. Spotting a familiar patch of hair, she made her way towards the male; ducking, sliding, tripping. Sliding against the now dirtied tiled floor, she laughed, spotting pieces of noodles in his hair.
Glaring at her, he ruffled his hair, getting rid of the lingering pieces. Eyeing the door, he waited for the right moment and sprinted, not caring if his servant was following or not. Hearing footsteps and tinkling laughter following behind him, he couldn't help the chuckle that escaped him.
They reached their friends who stared at them in shock and amusement.
"Foot fight in the cafeteria." Was all she said.
