"I'm sorry," Himuro said mournfully.

"You should be," Kagome huffed. "It was your fault in the first place."

"You were being stubborn."

"You were distracting me. I had it all under control."

Himuro shook his head and watched her wash her hands. Remembering what happened just earlier, he guessed that it was somewhat his fault. He's not going to take the full blame for it because it wouldn't have happened if the girl beside wasn't so stubborn.

Flashback

"Give it to me," Himuro demanded gently. "I'm stronger than you are so the task would be easier."

"Where's the gender equality, dude?" Kagome snorted and continued putting pressure on the scissors that is currently on the potato. "Just because girls are physically weaker than boys don't mean we can't do the job as well," she quickly whipped out the scissors imbedded on the potato and held it threateningly in front of his face. Greatly reminding him a red-haired captain. "So shush you," the scissors were once again on the potato.

Himuro sighed and observed her struggling. She's so prideful sometimes it's irritating. "Kagome-san, just give it to me."

"Himuro, leave me alone and just do the rest of the experiments," the girl grunted.

"Kag…"

"I can do this just fine—" Kagome looked up from her as she was trying to slice the potato. It was a bad move on her part since she didn't expect for the blade to suddenly go through the vegetable. The blade hit her left pointer finger. She stopped talking at the impact and was about to continue what she was doing since it didn't really hurt (the shock taking away the hurt) and nothing really happened when suddenly, blood started appearing in a straight line.

Bright red liquid started dripping down her appendage.

Kagome quickly put down the scissors and made a move towards the sink, but Himuro was blocking her way, "Himuro, move, please," although, she was calm, there was a hint of urgency in her tone.

The taller teen was basically frozen to his spot once he caught sight of the blood. "Oh my God," he made a move to help her, but she also made a move to get around him. So both moves cancelled each other out. This was repeated a few more times before the girl got annoyed at the wasted time.

Huffing an irritated breath since the blood is already dripping down the floor, Kagome took hold hold of her classmate's forearms (without her bleeding pointer finger touching him) and gently moved him away from her path, "Thank you," she gritted out and rushed towards the sink. She opened the water and let her bleeding finger get under the running water.

Flashback ends

"I'm not saying that this is entirely your fault, but you were distracting me and annoying me," the raven rolled her eyes. "I know you probably think that I couldn't do it, but you're wrong. I can do it. I've done stuff that even you boys can't do it. I've done worse so next time don't underestimate me."

Himuro spluttered, "I wasn't underestimating you!"

"Really?" Kagome raised one brow in disbelief. "I call bullshit."

"You were being stubborn!"

"And you weren't listening! I could do it and I can still do it with an injured hand," Kagome huffed. "Just… Next time, trust me," she slumped as if all of her fight is drained out. "I'm sorry," she mumbled.

"I'm sorry too," Himuro returned in the same tone of voice.

Kagome blinked at the apology before nodding. She raised her still, slightly bleeding finger to him as a peace offering.

The boy shook his head before taking her hand gently and dragging towards the first aid kit near the back of the labs. The girl hopped on one of the tables, swinging her legs, and waited for her classmate to get the kit.

Standing in between her legs, the athlete started wiping the excess blood and applied the ointment for wounds. After letting it dry for a few seconds, he wrapped the finger with a band-aid.

"Thank you…" Himuro was startled at the soft voice and looked straight in the eyes of the only girl who caught his attention. (Even though sometimes he really wants to strangle her because she's just so frustrating.)

Mesmerizing blue eyes connected with olive green ones.

"…Tatsuya-kun." Kagome smiled at him. Doing that close-eyed smile.

He returned her smile fondly. Now, he remembers why he likes her in the first place.

The way she smiles.

Dom: I'm gonna tell you a little story. And a devastating one at that. One day, a stupid, little girl got irritated at the fact that she has 11 GB left in her laptop so scouring through the internet, she found an app that can scan your hard drive and detect which one has the most memory consuming files. The girl decided to install it since there were many reviews that says it was good. So then, the girl did install it and started deleting files. Out of the blue, the girl decided to restart her computer… Dun dun dun… While waiting her computer to boot up she was on her phone. A little while, she started wondering why it was taking too long, glancing up, she saw the screen stuck on the grey screen. With her brows furrowed she turned it off then on again. It had the same results. She went on Youtube and looked for any solutions. None worked! So then, she decided that she'll take it to a technician. She took it to the nearest Apple store and got informed that it needs to be reformatted. She asked if there was any possible way of backing up her files, but the tech guy said no… You can imagine how many times the girl died inside when she heard that. With a fucking fake, yet grateful and albeit sad smile, the girl handed her laptop to the tech guy and exited out of the store with her friend.

So, yeah… That was pretty much the summation of the events these past few days. I went to this account's Twitter and let my frustrations out so if you happen to stumble upon that you prolly already know. I got my laptop back this Saturday and my files were gone. Nada. Zero. Zilch. Meaning my stories, chapters, unpublished stories/chapters, music, photos, apps, they are all fucking gone. I think I'm more frustrated at the fact that some of my unpublished stories are gone. Some were written years ago and there were few that were more than 10-20 pages. So it fucking sucks. A couple are even sequels to my KHR/INU xover stories… ARGH! I tried coming into terms about wiping the memory clean, but every time I remember it, I get all pissy about it because my efforts are ALL GONE. I didn't have the decency to put all of my stories in a flashdrive but I didn't have one! Ugh. Anyway, when I post this story, it's my birthday. Yay! I'm finally 18 and boo, I'm finally 18. HAHAHAHA as you can see I have some mixed feelings about being a legal adult but eh XD Anyway, since I love the Middle-earth and Hobbits give gifts when it's their birthday, I'll be doing just that for you all :* Hope you guys enjoy :)
