Kagome bounced down the front steps towards him, her bag slightly hitting her hip with the motions. Souta was quick behind her, but his attention was all focused on Kagome.
Something seemed off.
Her grip on her bad was tight, she kept nibbling on her lower lip, her eyes were darting all over the place. It left him to wonder what had happened between her arriving home the other day to this morning.
She relaxed when she was finally beside him. That fact alone please him greatly. His presence brought her comfort.
But he noticed, that she was still wary.
Usually, when Kagome dropped her brother off, she waited till he was simply on the school grounds before taking off for her own school. Not today. She waited till he was completely inside the school before leaving.
Bee would admit, he too felt, off. How was it that humans put it? The calm before the storm?
Whatever it was, it was happening. And very soon. It had his senses on high alert to any and everything to that posed a threat. Mainly towards Kagome.
As much as he wished it, it didn't have to do with Trent.
Maybe next time.
AN: Hmmm, what could this possibly mean?! D: I really need to build up my back log for this one... some how. Perhaps this weekend. Other than that; read, enjoy, and review!
