25. I'm Your Body Guard; Now Leave Me Be!

Tomoe sighed and stared at the whiteboard at the front of the classroom. He hadn't gotten much sleep the night before. He had been studing his English and fell asleep.

When he woke up his English homework was plastered to his forehead by his drool.

Tomoe shuttered and leaned his head on his hand. It was still cold outiside but that wasn't so bad. There was so much snow that it was still on the ground and Nanami looked like a snowman that morning.

Nanami kept glancing at him and it was starting to annoy him greatly. What was he supposed to do? Ask her what she wanted like the teacher wasn't there? Tomoe glanced at from the corner of his eyes and she smiled.

The teen rolled his violet eyes and looked back at the board. They were pronouncing some word in English, Sadly he couldn't really grasp the whole concept of the language and he was now fighting off a terrible headache.

He felt a finger poke his arm and again looked at Nanami. She was laughing silently and poking him everytime the teacher turned her face.

Tomoe rolled his eyes and glared at her. Nanami stopped and blinked in surprise at his harsh attitude. He didn't have time for her to goof off like this! It was annoying and kind of embarrassing.

He squirmed in his seat and let out a long breath when the bell went off; Dismissing them from their class.

Nanami stood up before him and walked out the door with some of her friends. One of the girls had a phone and looked like her fingers would fall off from all her texting and The other one was short and innocent.

Tomoe sighed heavily and stood up. He started to grab his school bag when Mizuki came by and bumped into the teens arms. His stuff fell in the floor and Tomoe turned to glare at the snickering boy.

Mizuki laughed, " Oops, I'm sorry! I Slipped...Sorry again, Last one ou- OH! I mean Tomoe."

Tomoe's glare deepened, " Oh of course not Deadbea- Oh...Mizuki."

The young man glared as did Tomoe until the teacher sighed,

"You two, Go or get detention!"

Tomoe flinched and stuffed his stuff into his bag. He did not need detention right now. If he did he would be grounded for the rest of his life.

The teen flung his bag over his shoulder; sadly he didn't realize that Nanami had walked back in and she was right behind his bag.

'WACK!'

Tomoe froze as his bag hit a solid object. Oh crap, what was that? He turned around and saw Nanami holding his nose with wide eyes. A red liquid dripped from her hand and Tomoe's eyes widened.

"Nanami?"

"Ow.." Nanami whined and then started to hold her head back to stop her nose bleed. Mizuki ( Who hadn't left the room yet, ) Glared at him and pulled out a white tissue.

"Here, Nanami-chan. He sure is clumbsy huh?"

Tomoe glared at the man and huffed out an annoyed breath. He blew a piece of hair out of his eye sight and shifted his bag to his other shoulder.

"What? " Nanami cocked her head to the side as she held the tissue to her nose," Tomoe is NOT clumbsy. He's really good on his feet." She smiled not knowing that Tomoe was staring at her a bit confused.

He looked away and bit his lip only to have Mizuki give him a 'Raised eyebrow' look.

Which only meant one thing..Tomoe had to say something jerky.

"At least I'm on my feet; Nanami always has her head in the clouds."

Nanami glared at him, " I'm not the one that hit the defensless girl in the head with a bag!"

Tomoe furrowed his brow and looked past her, " What defenseless girl?"

Nanami ground her teeth and tried to strangle Tomoe with her looks. He mearly shrugged his shoulders and looked away.

Thats when the girl grabbed his wrist and smiled at Mizuki, " Hey Mizuki? We gotta go and eat lunch. See you around!" She turned her back but before she left she winked at Mizuki making Tomoe nearly double back in shock.

He wasn't sure why but...He REALLY Wanted to break Mizuki's nose again.

Nanami yanked him out of the classroom and towards the lockers once there she let go and started to put in her lock number. Tomoe glared at her in an unknown hatred. He wasn't sure why he was mad..It was just. There?

He put his back on the locker and looked at her annoyed. She didn't even look at him as she opened her locker and pulled out her bento. Nnaami then shoved it at Tomoe and smiled forcefully.

"Theres enough for both us!" You could tell her teeth were clamped, " Lets go to the roof and eat!"

Tomoe blinked and looked at her shocked. He wanted to edge away for some reason. Her face was scaring the living crap out of him. He mearly nodded and followed her to the roof.

Once There Nanami plopped down and stared out over the long list of building that were surrounding them. Tomoe sighed and sat down beside her. He opened the bento and gave Nanami her chopsticks.

She looked at her food and stuffed a piece of sushi in her mouth.

Tomoe eyes traveled to her lips and he had to fight back the embarrassing thought of how they kissed not to long ago. Her mouth was in a little pout and for him it looked...

Cute.

Tomoe's eyes grew wide. ENOUGH WITH THE KISSING CRAP! The teen shuttered and looked away.

After a long moment of silence Nanami swallowed and looked at Tomoe.

"Hey Tomoe?"

The white haired teen turned his head and nonchalantely opened his mouth. It formed a little 'O' and he mouthed the word, " Huh?"

But as soon as he mouthed that word Nanami stuffed a piece of crab right between his two perfect lips. He blinked for a moment as his mind tried to think of what was happening. Then he chewed and looked away; his face flushing slightly.

THOSE CHOPSTICKS WERE IN HER MOUTH!

And now...Tomoe swallowed his embarrassment and looked at her annoyed. He was not going to let this girl contridict how he acted!

So when Nanami looked at him he smirked and licked his thumb. She blinked as he sighed and looked away. This girl was so foolish that he wondered why they were friends, but then again.. They knew each other only because his father had dated her mother. Which in his opinion was weird in itself.

"Tomoe?"

He looked at her again, not daring to say anything.

"Could you be my body guard?"

Tomoe blinked and then rolled his eyes, " I've already answered that question and its still no."

Nanami pouted her famous pout and whimpered, " B-But.. Friends protect their friends!"

Tomoe rolled his eyes and plucked a piece of Sushi out of her Bento. He plopped it in his mouth and sighed, " Why do you need protection anyway? I thought Kurama was leaving you alone?"

Nanami sighed and her little face flushed at the mention of the other males name. This made Tomoe stop chewing, The sushi turned to sand in his mouth before he nearly swallowed it whole. Why was she acting like that? He glared in annoyance.

" He's not bothering me Tomoe. Actualy.." She looked at him and smiled, " Ami likes him."

Tomoe suddenly felt himself relax, " Whos Ami?"

Nanami looked at him and smiled, " The girl with the peachy colored hair."

The teen had to think for a minute before he finally knew, " AH! The innocent one right?"

Nanami looked at him confused and Tomoe winced. Oh yeah, He didn't exactly tell her that he ladled her friends; And in a way? It was VERY embarrassing.

"Huh?"

"Nothing." Tome spat out quickly.

"The reason I need a bodyguard is..." She paused as if trying to think of a reason.

Tomoe rolled his eyes and stood up. He stretched and unbuttoned the top button on his shirt. He looked down at Nanami and sighed,

"I'm not going to be your bodyguard. Final."

Then he took off. Down the stairs, Only to be stopped by Nanami half-way down. He glanced around and noticed where they were.

This is where they first Kissed.

Tomoe swallowed the lump in his throat as he lifted his eyes to look at Nanami. He couldn't breath. His heart was pounding heavily and it hurt like crazy. What was wrong with him? Nanami glared at him and backed him up against a wall. His back pressed against the cold cement wall as his breath hitched in his throat.

"N-Nn.." He whimpered out. He couldn't talk, and he didn't know why! No words would leave his mouth. He was breathless..

"Tomoe please!" Nanami pouted and Tomoe winced.

He looked away and tried to close his eyes. Her hot breath was against his bare neck and it sent shivers up and down his spine. He body shook in a deep shiver and Nanami looked at him closer.

"Please?"

Tomoe's eyes opened and he looked at her with a glare, " I said No!"

Thats when his face got close to hers. If she titled her head the right way her soft, tasty lips would pinch at his smooth neck. Ah...He couldn't stand this...It..Was making him loose all his composure.

It hurt like crazy.

"Why?"

She dung her nails into his white shirt, His jacket was hanging open slightly and he chewed his lip. Nanami gripped him tighter and he looked into her honey eyes.

"Because, I am not a guard. I am a normal person and I would appreciate in you let me go."

Nanami sighed as he grip loosened. Then it got tight again and she brought her lips to his ear. They were so close that they almost brushed it and he whimpered.

"Fine." She muttered and pulled away completely.

Tomoe stood there his hair shading his eyes and hiding all his emotions. He felt a little sick.. His heart was sending his moxed signals; but he didn't care.

"But."

Tomoe jerked his gaze up and Nanami smirked, " Thats doesn't mean I can't stay around you! If I'm around you, Then no one with bother me!"

Tomoe gauked at her in shock, " WHAT!? YOU LEACH!

Tomoe slammed his locker shut and growled under his minty breath. WHAT THE CRAP HAD HE GOTTEN HIMSELF INTO!? He turned his head to the left and sighed, " Nanami, Stop following me."

She shook her head with a smile, " Nope."

The teen nearly deadpanned as he cursed under his breath. He didn't have time for this. The one thing that relaxed him was that Nanami took Home-Ex, And he didn't. Which meant one thing.

He could go to the bathroom with out Nanami standing outside the door waiting for him to come out. It was a one doored bathroom so there was no escape. Nanami looked at him and then the clock.

"I have to go to class, " She muttered and looked at him, " See you later."

Tomoe nodded as she walked off. Thank goodness! Now he could be alone for a little while. He wasn't used to spending that much time with Nanami. It was different for him, But...It wasn't THAT bad.

The teen coughed and looked down at his feet when he walked to his next class, His face tinted a light pink.

"Ah, What a stupid thought. Why would he enjoy HER company.

Ha..His mind was out of it lately.

Nanami tapped her pen lightly against her desk as she waited for her class to end. Who needed to learn how to mix eggs and butter? She didn't have time for things like cooking. She wasn't good at it anyway! If she tried to cook anything but Sasamochi she would burn the mouse down!

The girl sighed and looked at the clock again, OH YES! It was almost time! Tomoe had gone to one of his make-up classes and she wondered if she could get out before him. She knew he was a bit annoyed- Okay, Scratch that. He was REALLY annoyed, but she didn't care.

There was this weird guy following her around school. There was a rumor that he was a senior and was planning on confessing to her. Something she didn't want..

Because..

She liked Tomoe.

Yeah she knew he practially rejected her twice, One with words to the Principal, the other to her face directly, But... She still liked him. Just because he rejected her didn't mean she had to stop liking him. In fact she probably needed to know alot more about him. She twirled her hair and didn't seem to notice that the bell had went off.

When she did notice she looked was all alone in her classroom.

Nanami sighed and went to grab her bag. Then a hand closed around hers. She looked up and turned pale. It was that guy...That was following her.

"Who are you!" Nanami screeched.

The man smirked. He had a handsome smile, But the inside was what counted. He sighed and flipped some of his black hair out of his sky blue eyes.

"Names are not needed, Nanami Momozeno.."

Tomoe almost let his head plop down on his desk. MAN! Make-up classes were boring.. But since all the snow and injuries he had recieved he had to go through this endless torture.

When the bell went off he bolted out the door.

Tomoe sighed and started to walk down the hall, It was crowded but he didn't care right now. The school day was over and he was almost expecting Nanami to run to his side and poke and prod him into something stupid. Like Ice-skating or something..

But then again.. She should have been out of her class ten minutes ago, And she wasn't there.

Tomeo sighed and figured she had forgortten the time. He could always go to her class, But what was the point in that? Wouldn't she just pester him or something? He chewed his lip and mumbled some words to himself as he leaned down to drink form the water fountain.

It was strange that even though his mind protested against it, He had made his way to Nanami's classroom. Now he was outside taking a long drink of cold water.

He felt stupid to even come and pick her up. She was his responsibilty or anything. In fact she was a burden with no sense in her bird like head; but here he was.

Tomoe straightened and slowly wiped his mouth with the back of his hand; Only then did he notice Nanami being forcefully yanked out of the classroom.

"STOP IT! PERVERT!" Nanami screamed as the tall man in front of her gripped her fragil wrist.

He rolled his eyes and looked at her, " Now, Now Nanami. I like you..You should understand me right?"

Tomoe's eyes widened. It was clear that this man was older then him but he didn't understand why he was pulling Nanami. Then it hit him..

Maybe this was why Nanami was following him everywhere today. It hurt because she didn't truly want to be with him as a frined but it felt good to. Mostly because she trusted him even though he was a guy himself.

"Pardon me, But what are you doing?" Tomoe crossed his arms and the man looked at him.

"Me? Oh, Me and my girlfriend are going to the roof for some air." He smiled fakely as Tomoe's violet eyes narrowed.

"Girlfriend? How is that? I know this girl better then you will ever know her."

The man glared at him and he released Nanami's wrist.

The brunette ran up to Tomoe and nearly knocked him over in a choking hug.

"N-Nn-Nanami..Can't breath."

The girl let go of him and winced, " Sorry.

The man looked hostile as he glared at Tomoe. The man was taller too, but Tomoe would not let himself back down. He was called shortie all the time before.

He looked at Nanami and snarled, " Who's this Nanami?"

The girl flinched at the mans glare and hide behind Tomoe, " This is Tomoe. He's my friend and he's strong!" Then her voice dropped as if she was trying to hide her next statement, " And he's Sexy too.."

Tomoe blinked and tried to hide his embarrassment. He would not let Nanamai know he heard that. It was just so wrong..

The man snarled again, " Who?

Tomoe smirked evilly, ( Making Nanami shrink away from him as well ) " I'm Someone who want's you to leave Nanami alone. There is no thought or heart in a relationship that makes the girl scared to death of you."

The man blinked and then glared, " HOW WOULD YOU KNOW!?"

Tomoe sighed, " What is it about Nanami anyway? She's as flat as a board!"

"HEY! Nanami slapped his head and Tomoe rolled his eyes,

"Let me guess, " Tomoe began, " She looks like a past girlfriend that you loved?"

The man stiffened and Tomoe nearly laughed at how immature that was. So this man was really in love with someone that broke up with him, and now he was trying to force Nanami into a relationship because she looked like his Ex? Was this guy Phsyco?

"Evangaline." The man muttered, " That was her name; And she didn't break up with me. She died."

Nanami blinked and Tomoe swallowed his instant guilt. Crap, What a stupid situation.

Then the man simply walked away, Nanami looked like she feared for his life or something but Tomoe didn't care. As long as he was gone and not giving him a blasted headache!

He looked at Nanami and sighed. Then he looked down and coughed on his next words. He would help his friend. It was just at school after all. His father would be mad if Tomoe didn't help Namami with her problem.

"Nanami.."

"Hum?"

"I'll be your bodyguard, But..."

"But?" Her eyes shimmered with happiness until he looked her in the eye.

"Stop bugging me all day. You have my number, If you think your in trouble, text me."

Nanami nodded and Tomoe rolled his eyes. He didn't know why he would even go through the trouble. She was just a FRIEND. He looked at her and was suddenly engulfed by her.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled. Her face buried into his neck and he felt her lips brush against his skin..

Ugh, His heart was hurting him again. He was wanting to panic. HE HAD TO PUSH HER OFF! OR, OR SOMETHING!

"Thanks Tomoe."

And with that Nanami let go and Tomoe's face tinted a lite pink. He looked away and glared at some unknown floor tile, " Whatever, Blockhead.."

Yeah; He needed to calm himself down. Because..

She was just a friend.

Or at least..Thats what he hoped.

He felt sick to the stomach as he looked at her, She pulled her bag on her shoulder and clumbsily ran down the hallway.

Yeah...He needed to sleep or something. He wasn't feeling to well after all this crappy Drama.
