Summary: The final battle has ended and Kagome has to go back to her own time. After a while she gets on her feet but trouble soon meets the Higurashi family. And now she's stuck as the vice-president of Seika High. Keep in mind that Misaki is not poor and lives an ordinary life, except for the problems she has with her father, which is the cause of her hatred to men.

Chapter 3 X Who is your True self?
Kagome was staring at her little brother in the living room while he was playing a game. It wasn't unusual to see Kagome acting… strange. But Souta finally reached his limit. "Nee-san… what are you looking at?" Kagome gave no answer as she kept on with her intense starring.
Souta sweat-dropped and sighed. He paused the game and then proceeded to glare at his older sister. "Nee-san!" As if waking from a daze, Kagome blinked a few times before answering. "Nani?" She questioned acting innocent.
"Why are you staring at me?!" He yelled earning the attention of their mother who was working in the kitchen. A wave of silence washed over them, waiting for an answer. "Well, I was just wondering how you would be as a girl."
"Not a maid, but a younger sister…" Kagome looked at the poster on the wall of her part-time job. "I can't really picture it." Her manager interrupted her. "What are you saying?! A younger sister is a bundle of cuteness! This will be quite an interesting event for the café too! Satsuki said excited. "Kago-chan, what do you say? Want to give it a shot… now?!"
Before Kagome could answer a colleague did. Her name was Erika. "I think it'll be better for you to get a childish hairstyle." She proposed.
"I think low pigtails would suit you well, Kago-chan." Honoka joined in. "You don't address the customers by "Master". Instead, you address them as "Onii-sama" or "Onee-sama"." Kagome was dumbfounded as Honoka kept on lecturing. "You can customize your character by using "Onii-chan" or "Onee-san" too!"
And so Kagome got dragged into changing in the uniform for the little sister day. "Unbelievable! You look better than what I had imagined!" Satsuki complimented. Kagome wore a sailor shirt piece and skirt, similar to her old middle school uniform but in a different color. What used to be green was light blue, and the red got changed to white. Honoka did her hair, which resulted to two low braids.
"Kago-chan, what will you use?" Her manager asked, referring to how she should address the customers. Honoka had meanwhile also changed. "Honoka will be using "Onii-chan"." She said cutely referring to herself in the third person.
Kagome pondered as she looked up. "I honestly don't know." She said. "I never had a big brother." Suddenly an image of someone flashed in her mind. "Well, I suppose if I were to had one older brother figure… I would probably call him "Onii-san"."
'But knowing Sesshoumaru-sama he would probably kill me for it.' Kagome thought to herself, letting a small giggle escape. 'Maybe in an other life he would've just look really pissed but he would let me live.'
"No!" Honoka protested. "It's not cute enough! You're still young so use something cute like "Onii-tan" instead!" She began giving examples of in which situation it would be suitable to use it. "Sister characters are normally like that!" While Honoka kept lecturing Kagome, Satsuki and Erika watched on.
"As expected of Honoka-chan. She'll be all serious when it comes to things that interest her." Satsuki said as she watched, with slight worry, the pair. "Her mania switch had been turned on." Erika commented as they hear Honoka say, "Let's try it out!"
"You're the younger sister who's waiting for her beloved brother to come back." Honoka said as she gave another example. It was now Kagome's turn. Kagome sighed, already knowing that she was fighting a losing battle, so she gave in.
"H-He's still not back yet, Onii-tan…"
She said, the room was silent. Kagome bursted in tears of regret while everyone else except Honoka surrounded her to compliment her. "Wow! Kago-chan, you're basically a natural!" Satsuki said, with Erika behind her nodding franticly.
"Damn it… why does she look cuter then me when doing that?!" Honoka murmured coming up with a plan to ensure that she was cuter then the raven-head.
'Yosh… Let's go!' The blonde launched her attack. "He may have just reached home!" And Kagome followed, somehow with a better affect of cuteness. 'Okay… how about this one!' Honoka gave another example.
"Okaeri, Onii-tan!" Kagome said with her angel like voice. It was like a soothing melody that entered their ears. Even Honoka was mesmerized, but she snapped out of it. "What is with you and that stupid hidden talent of yours?!" She lost it and beginning complaining.
"I still don't get what the deal is with this theme, but I think I'll just stick with Onii-san." Kagome said after she finally escaped the clutches of Honoka. "I agree." Satsuki spoke up, gaining the attention of the miko. "The Kago-chan you've been at shop all this time should stay the way she is." She smiled sweetly, making Kagome smile along with her.
Kagome's shift had ended and she was now making her way back home. She halted in her tracks when she heard someone call her name, it was the manager, Satsuki. "Kago-chan! The next event, after the little sister day will be Maid Rangers Day!" She gave the flyer to Kagome.
"I wanted to be the pink one, but Honoka-chan just won't let me! What color ranger would you want to be?" She asked. "I'm fine with any color, really." Kagome answered. Suddenly an aura came creeping up on her.
"You're done for the day already?" A voice asked. "Is that why you're her Usui Takumi?" Kagome returned the question calmly. "Ah! You're the one who always comes to see her!" Satsuki spoke with excitement. "I see, so you're Usui-kun? Oh yeah, do you know what color fits her image best?"
When Takumi looked confused at her she elaborated. "We're going to have a Maid Rangers event next, and I was wondering what color would be best for her…" Takumi took the flying and read over it. "Personally, I think she looks best in light purple or blue but… The other girls have already chosen them. I really want to make maid uniforms of different colors!" Satsuki continued.
"Then let it be transparent." Takumi answered before receiving a slap on his shoulder. "No way! I'm starting to wonder if you're just a pervert that's slowly coming to light." Kagome glared at him as he stared back at her blue orbs.
"Maa, maa, you don't need to decide immediately, so think about it okay?" Satsuki calmed them down. Kagome just sighed and bid her boss goodbye as she walked home.
"I don't get why you're still doing this." She said to the boy that was walking next to her. "Eh? I just want you to be safe, Kago-chan!" Takumi said in monotone, but she knew he was teasing her because he had this face whenever he did.
"Look. I get that you're curious and all but isn't this a little bit too much?" Kagome turned to look at him. Takumi halted as well and stared back, his face not showing any emotion. "If you keep sticking close to me, you might find yourself tangled into something you can't get out of." She said with a dark tone. It was a voice that Takumi didn't recognize
He almost hesitated… almost. He stepped up to her, keeping eye contact. They were standing face to face. "You have wings but you don't use them to fly away." He began. "It's like you used to be stuck in a place where you couldn't escape, and now that you're free you're too scared to fly again. And the only moment you try to fly away is when I'm standing too close. As if you want to fly but can't." His philosophic comparison of her had Kagome realized that he was right. She was running away from something, from him…
Kagome took a few steps back, but Takumi stopped her. "However! I'm willing to keep chasing you." Takumi smirked. "I'm gonna make you mine." He whispered in her ears and walked passed her. Kagome still held the shocked expression but slowly pink began crawling on her cheeks.
She turned around to see Takumi walking ahead, pass the stairs towards the Higurashi Shrine. "Don't worry, I'll choose a suitable color for you." He said as he waved. Kagome was left baffled of what happened and silently made her way past her mother and brother straight to her room.
"What just happened?" She asked herself falling to her knees blushing. "I never felt like this with Inuyasha…" Inuyasha… In the back of her head she knew what Takumi was talking about. Kagome had finally been relieved from the heavy duty of protecting the Shikon no Tama.
But when the battle was over she got dragged back into her world. The freedom she felt back then was gone as well as the adventure. When she came back she was beyond happy to finally be with her family again, but it felt like there was nothing for her afterwards.
She felt so empty. Her grades weren't good enough to go a High school with her friends, so she choose the one that would allow her to attend with her grades. Kagome thought that by joining the Student Council she might help people in other ways, but it didn't feel like she was changing someone's live.
Then her grandfather fell ill and got hospitalized. With lack of customers the shrine alone wasn't enough anymore to pay the rent. Her mother started working extra shifts in the hospital and Kagome found work. Kagome began getting used to the live she was forced to live. Keeping her true feeling more to herself and shutting down the Kagome that once lived in freedom in her small cage. But now that she was truly free, it felt like she lost all meaning.
There was no duty, no task, no mission…
Kagome sighed and placed a hand on her heart. 'Why? Why is it beating again?'
"You're going to leave a message in the maid's notebook for Kago-chan?" Kurosaki asked as he and Shirokawa watched Sarashina write something down. They were outside the school sitting crunched together. "It's useless, she doesn't even look at it." Shirokawa protested.
"You'll never know unless you try!" Sarashina replied confidently as he kept scribbling. "I know for a fact that she'll never reply you!" Kurosaki said, he didn't want to see the guy hurt. So he and Shirokawa kept protesting. "Also, people might be able to trace out which school you're from just by your writings. So she'll never take such a risk!" Shirokawa said.
"But if I show her my love through my words maybe she'll notice me!" Sarashina kept on drawing. "What about… something like this? Writing down my message with some illustrations…" He showed them what he wrote and drew.
'He's good!'
They simultaneously thought and immediately began complimenting him. "I have been hiding it from everyone but… I'm actually an otaku." He said bashfully, making the other two lost for words. 'I don't even know where to start from.' They both thought.
Someone suddenly took the notepad out of Sarashina's hand. "Hmn, I'll let you go since it's not too bad." The looked up to see Takumi examining the drawing sternly.
"He let me off the hook!" Sarashina said as if the Gods had blessed him. "What color is this flower?" Takumi then questioned, confusing the so-called San-Baka.
"A question!" Takumi announced bluntly. "What color suits Kago-chan the best?" He proceeded to ask again. "You've got ten seconds. Ten, nine… three, two, one…" And so the guys answered.
"It has to be red! It fits well with her fiery personality and her passion! It goes well with her black hair too!"
-Shirokawa
"I think it's violet! It gives her a sexy and elegant image! Her adult and mature charm is the best!"
-Sarashina
"It definitely black! Black goes the best with her slender body! And if she wears something lacy it'll be-"
*Punch*
-(Barely alive) Kurosaki
"I prefer ichigo panties!" Shirokawa confessed blushing deeply. "Oi! Since when did the topic change to her underwear? What if Usui-san punches you too?" Sarashina said worriedly.
Takumi didn't say anything and looked up to the sky. He needed more information, so he decided to go to the place where he would get them. 'I'll have an annoying obstacle across my path though…' He sighed.
"What do you want?" And here it was, the annoying obstacle, Ayuzawa Misaki. The Kaichou of the school. "Nothing that has to do with you. Where's Vice?" He asked looking around the room; he spotted the raven-hair engrossed in some sort magazine.
"Ever since we confiscated that book, Kagome-chan has been reading it throughout. It's some sort of imouto special or so…" Misaki glared at Takumi, suspecting something fishy. "It's not your weird fetish is it?" She interrogated him.
"Sadly enough we're not at that level yet." Takumi responded and walked past the female president towards his interest. "Vice." He began, when she gave no reaction he leaned forward, but was halted by a pen that would nearly poke his eye out. Just like him, it seemed that even Kagome was startled.
"Ah, Takumi! N-Nani? What are you doing here? What do you want?" She ranted nervously trying to hide the magazine. It was clear that she didn't realize what she had done and that she had done it unconsciously. Or was it that she knew but pretended that she didn't? Misaki didn't see it because his body blocked her few, he did however feel now and then imaginary daggers in his back. 'Just who is this girl?' Takumi could feel his curiosity rise. He smirked.
"So what were you looking at?" He questioned her in a teasing tone. Kagome looked away. "Nothing that concerns you." She huffed. His smirk widened. "Are conscious of what happened yesterday?" He asked next. He watched amused how her face turned strawberry red.
"Iie! Get out! This isn't a place for messing around, now go!" Kagome yelled as she pushed him out. While he was getting pushed around he made eye contact with a very pissed of Misaki. He sticked out his tongue. It was 1-0 for Takumi.
"Are you seriously going to draw it?" Shirokawa asked the boy next to him for insurance. "Yeah. I even brought along all twenty-four of my color pens." Sarashina bragged. They began whispering to each other, discussing the colors more specifically.
A menacing aura stood behind them, they turned around scared to see Kagome standing in her maid uniform carrying their order. "Sorry for the wait, Master. Here's your special serving of Moe Moe Omurice. " She said with a smile but her voice clearly stated a different attitude. She placed down the plate with a thud; written in ketchup was her secret message to them. "Shut Up"
Kagome made her way back to the employees' room. She borrowed 30 volumes of "My Onii-tan" from the manager and had been reading through it since she got them.
"It's really amazing how much effort she puts into this." Erika said to the others. "Previously, she was reading her textbooks during break." Subaru, another worked at the café, said.
"She's really serious in her work! And she learns fast!" Erika smiled as she talked about the younger girl. "Honoka dislikes her." Someone interrupted… it was Honoka. "I'm pissed at how everyone is treating her nicely due to her family circumstances." The blonde complained with a smile.
"But she's surprisingly strong, so she helps me carry the heavy things. And most importantly, when there are troublesome customers…" Honoka imagined the scenario. "Our customers are really pleased with it! That's why I think it's not too bad to have her around. It's convenient to have her around." Honoka finished. "Honoka, you're really an evil person underneath." Erika said with a smile.
Kagome didn't paid any of them attention as she kept focusing on the books. She didn't understand any of them. She knew that the manager said that it was all right to just be herself, but she found it a bit rude not to get into character correctly, or at least she wanted to try.
The following day had been quite easy for Kagome, after school she still had a few things to do for the student council but it wasn't difficult or anything. It was a peace moment she would get once in a while when everyone of the council was free.
However this time was different for she had company. "What are you looking at?" She asked rudely, glaring at the blonde that sat on her desk. "I'm just observing and thinking about what color would suit you the best." Takumi responded.
Kagome sighed. "Didn't I say that I'm fine with any color? Except for transparent." She went back to her task, trying to ignore the radiating emerald eyes that were glued on her. "More importantly, is your head filled with "Onii-tan" only?" He questioned, no emotion heard or shown.
"Urusai! Besides it's gonna be "Onii-san" with me!" Kagome said harshly, but then proceeded to slam her head on her wooden table. "Why am I having this conversation with you so casually?" She questioned no one in particular.
"Vice, you have a younger brother, right? Isn't it just like that but then the other way around?" Kagome looked at him, slightly surprised that he would say that. "Hmn… actually, you might be right. When I think about my little brother I think about wanting to protect him. Keeping him far away from danger, even if it meant that I wouldn't be able to see him again." Takumi looked at her.
"I would like him to come to me for help. And I thin that as an older sibling you would always keep the younger one safe, that may result in him hating you but you can't hate him. And I think for a younger sibling it's easy to just feel whatever you want for your older brother or sister, because they will accept them!" Kagome smiled softly.
"Then why are you trying so hard when it's so simple?" Takumi asked, Kagome pondered again prepared to answer every question honestly. "Well… it's because I want to understand the others at Maid Latte. They are all so unique and it's hard to keep up. I thought if I understand what they're interested in, I might understand them better. Then I will be able to work harder as well." Kagome smiled brightly proud of her answer. "Ah, but that doesn't mean that I'm going to change myself!" she quickly added. "I like myself the way I am!"
"I like you the way you are too." Takumi whispered with a smirk. He jumped from the table, standing in front of Kagome. "I you were my sister…" He trailed off, leaning forward. "If I were your sister…?" Kagome leaned back a bit.
"I'll be really turned on." He said as he smirked widely watching Kagome blush again. Takumi used the moment she was off guard to place both his hands on the table and leaning in it more. Their noses were almost touching. Suddenly a perverted grin came on his face that she recognize all too well.
"I'll take a picture of your sleeping face everyday for a year and compile it into an album collection! I wonder which angle I shall take it form today…" He grinned big.
"O-Omae! You're just a hentai, aren't you?!"
The day had come, Sister day. "Okaeri, Onii-san!" Kagome welcomed the customer with her business smile that seemed more childish and lively then usual. "It's been a tough day for you. Please have a seat!"
Her colleagues watched in awe backstage. "She's already doing it naturally even though she's new to it! She's making it her own character, using lines of her choice." Satsuki explained.
"I'll praise her for keeping true to her character here at Maid Latte. Kago-chan has the potential of being a quiet and serious sister character, but the mysterious and cool type also suits her." Honoka monitored Kagome with a mischievous glint in her eyes, making the others sweat-drop.
Again the door opened allowing another customer to enter the shop. "Okaeri, Onii-san." Kagome turned around only to come face to face with Takumi. Her face paled even more when she saw him smirk.
"W-What?" Kagome asked him reluctantly as he sat down at a table. "Nothing, it's just that I remembered that seeing your face already makes my day, imouto." Takumi smirked. "How about you sit on my lap?"
Kagome blushed red. "Mattaku, Onii-san. Stop with the jokes." Kagome tried to remain calm as she turned away to serve another customer. But a tight grip on her wrist prevented her from doing so.
She stumbled backwards landing on a soft surface, Takumi's lap. "Now that wasn't so hard." He whispered teasingly in her ear. The pink dust spread itself further across her face. "Mou, Onii-san. Would you cut that out?!" she said sternly, but everyone could hear the shyness through her voice.
He ignored her and called over Honoka. "Excuse me, I would like to have one Moe Moe Omurice, please." He ordered. The blonde wrote it down clearly pissed that she had to serve while on her break because Kagome was messing around.
"Was that everything?" She asked him, there was a sudden glint in Takumi's eyes and Kagome began to fear for the worst. "One spoon." He said seriously. "I understand, please wait a moment Onii-chan." Honoka made her way to the kitchen, making sure that Kagome could hear her complains.
"Damn it Kago-chan! Always messing around and not doing your job. You should be serving not me, especially not on my break. Instead she's flirting with this Ikemen Shounen. Shine!" With that the cute little Honoka disappeared behind the door that separated the customers and staff.
"Urg, I think she hates me more now." Kagome sighed, crying. "How could she ever hate you, my kawaii imouto?" Takumi said mockingly adding more fuel to the fire. "It was your fault… Onii-san!" Kagome shouted in his ear.
"Here is your Moe Moe Omurice, Onii-chan! Honoka hopes you'll enjoy it." Honoka came back with more cuteness vibe than she had before. However Takumi paid her no mind as he took the spoon and gave it to Kagome who still sat on his lap. "Feed me." He simply stated earning a annoyed grunt from Kagome.
Before she could protest had Takumi beat her. "Aren't you suppose to help your Onii-san out at moments like this." He smirked, Kagome huffed wanting to shout back, but she heard the calls of her Manager urging to do what the costumer requested, he was a regular after all.
She took the spoon and scooped some omelet with rice. The cutlery slowly made its way to Takumi. "Can't you feed me with a more kawaii face?" Takumi stated frankly staring at Kagome's face that clearly showed irritation.
"You know what? I'm done!" Kagome shouted angrily as she jumped on her feet. Gaining the attentions of others. "You can feed yourself perfectly fine! Do enjoy making fun of me?" She yelled harshly, making Takumi flinch at the comment.
"I'm tired of everyone wanting me to be something I'm not! I'm Higurashi Kagome and no one else! I'm going to stop doing things to make others happy! Doing things that don't make me happy!" It felt like the darkness Kagome held finally got release.
Takumi said nothing as he stood up. His bangs covered his eyes, making it unable for Kagome to know what he was thinking, even his aura was blank which was unusual for humans but it kept happening with him. He leaned in, Kagome could feel him breathing against her ear.
"Who are you telling this?"
Kagome's eyes widen in shock, as he backed away she could only look in his deep emerald eyes. Who was she telling this to? How did he even realize?
"Somehow I just don't feel like it anymore. Guess I'll just go back for now." Takumi said having lost interest and walked towards the door. "Matte, Onii-san." Kagome's timid voice stopped him in his tracks. He slightly turned his head to look her in the eyes. Which caused the sapphire eyes to blush even more. "I know… I wasn't telling it to you… but…"
"I would like it if you came her again…"
Kagome had said honestly making herself and all the customers blush with her Moe~ power. It hit even the staff. "K-Kore wa…"Satsuki began. "It can't be…" Honoka continued wide eyes. "The other sister character!" Subaru announced shocked. "That must be it!" Erika agreed. "Yes! It is neither the mysterious nor the serious type!" Satsuki summed it up.
"The natural type!"
They all thought. Takumi smirked as he opened the door. "I'll be sure to remember that." He bid his goodbye and left. Everyone was now staring at the blushing Kagome. The miko sank to the floor, holding the plate in front of her face so that no one else could see her embarrassment.
'What is wrong with me?' she pondered. 'I didn't lose my composer so quickly before, it's just that since Takumi comes by that I lose control.' She sighed deeply, placing the plate lightly on her head. 'I really should stop comparing everybody to Inuyasha, I'll become like him this way. Takumi noticed, just like I did back then…'
With that Kagome made up her mind. When her shift was done she made her way outside with the promise to herself that she would properly apologize to Takumi when she saw him. "Yo!"
"Ah?!"
Kagome looked up to see Takumi casually waiting for her. "Don't scare me like that!" Kagome scolded him, in the back of her head questioning why she didn't sense him. "What are you doing here?" She questioned immediately.
"I'm here to pick you up. Obviously." He said as he began walking with her. "You're not going to thank me?" He then asked. "Thank you?" Kagome explained surprised. "Yeah, the success was due to me, right?"
"Success?" Kagome questioned again. "You mean that was set up?" She stopped walking just to stare at him dumfound. "No." Takumi answer and began walking again, making Kagome start walking too to keep up with him.
"But why do you keep teasing me?" She asked him then. "Because I want to know more about you. Besides, an obedient Vice is a first." Kagome laughed lightly at that. "Thought so… I shouldn't only thank you then, but also apologize. Gomen, Takumi." Kagome lowered her head so that her expression was unreadable.
"I though I had control over what I wanted and who I was, but I hadn't. I lost sight of who I am and began to focus on who I wanted to be, or more like who I used to be. And I know now because of you." Kagome halted making Takumi stop to. He looked at her, her blue eyes focused on him.
"Arigatou!" She smiled brightly, causing Takumi to blush. He held his hand before his face to prevent her from seeing. "You ok? You look kinda red." Kagome stepped closer to him, worry shown in her eyes.
"Iie… it's nothing. Now let's go, it's late." He quickly regained his composure; he took her hand and began walking faster. "Oi! Not so fast!" Kagome yelled after him.
The next day was Takumi walking to the yard behind the school, by the library. He got called out. "Look, Usui-senpai is here already!" He could hear whispers in the bushes; he briefly looked over to see three girls huddled together. One of the girls, the one that spoke held the shoulder of the girl who had long hair. "Gambatte!" The other girl said on the right side of the longhaired kouhai.
"You're looking for me?" Takumi asked the girl that stood before him; it was the one with long hair. "H-Hai! Gomennasai that I called you to come all the way over here." The girl apologized nervously. "Ano… I have something to tell you." She began.
Bored already, Takumi looked over at the library where he saw two boys fighting with books on top of a portable stair. He saw both Misaki and Kagome run in, with Misaki yelling at the guys.
"Actually, I was interested in you even before I entered here…" The girl continued unaware that Takumi paid no attention to her. He kept watching what played out in the library. He watched as the portable stair, the one closest to the window suddenly collapse, making the boy fall with it. The book the guy had also fell which caused his "opponent" to fall as well.
Kagome reacted within a blink of an eye. Her arm was placed in front of the stair so that she could protect the boy. Misaki managed to move the other guy out of the way before his stair also hit the ground. "That was a close one…" Kagome said to the boy. "Are you all right?" She looked at the boy in her arms with a smile. "H-Hai! Arigatou!" He blushed franticly.
'I swear I saw something pink…' Takumi thought as his eyes widened. "Will you go out with me?" He turned his attention back on the girl who had a beet red face and had just confessed her love for him. "Usui-senpai?" The girl looked hopefully at him, waiting for a positive answer.
And so he began with his unreadable face. "I'm actually a hardcore otaku who likes maids more than having three meals in a day… And I only read books related to maids. Also, I only visit maid cafes. Of course, I also collect maid figurines. I play games which feature maids in it and it turns me on so much just to look at one, that I'll wear the maid uniforms and jump in joy. With that said, I'll take my leave now." He turned around and walked away.
"Pull yourself together! He's just testing you!" One of the girls in the bushes encouraged their friend. "There's no way that he's an otaku!" The other added to convince the dumbfound girl left standing in the yard.
"I don't mind!" The girl quickly said in order to stop Takumi from going any further. "I'll try hard to become the girl that you like!" She said confidently. It worked in making Takumi stop, he turned around and smirked at her, making her blush more.
"That's… impossible."
Kagome walked around the hall ready to get her stuff and head to her class, this time she was able to notice Takumi's aura, she saw him leaning against the wall, clearly waiting for her. "Takumi, the next class is starting soon." She said concerned.
He pushed himself off the wall and walked towards her. "Vice…" he began, suddenly Kagome found her back against the wall and two muscular arms trapping her. "Strip." He finished as he looked at her body.
A tick mark appeared on Kagome's forehead. "Have you lost your mind, you hentai?!" She shouted loudly. In an automatic respond swung her open hand to his face. He managed to catch her forearm, but without the reaction he expected.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let me go!" Kagome struggled with releasing her arm. Takumi could only look shocked at it. His eyes sharpened and he began dragging her away.
"Oi! Takumi, where are you taking me? I need to go to class!" Takumi ignored Kagome's protest and kept walking till he reached the infirmary. He forced her to sit down on a chair and locked the door. "Remove your blazer!" he demanded. The blazer was removed after a lot of fighting.
He rolled up her arm which he saw her using to protect the boy. There was nothing, only her fair skin. "Hey! What is wrong with you?" Kagome snatched her arm back. He looked at her. "Why aren't you injured?" He decided to ask.
"Huh? Why would I be injured?" Kagome returned the question, Takumi just glared. "Because you stopped a stair from falling down on you and a boy. To be honest I didn't expect you to react so fast. Nor did I expect that you even had that power, then again I did saw you lifting a punch bag." Satisfied he watched Kagome's expression change.
"You saw that?" She asked then, he nodded. Suddenly he felt as if someone else stood in front of him. Kagome's eyes looked like they had darkened, which would be impossible. But she felt so… different. So… experienced. "What else did you see?" Kagome asked almost warning him to choose his words carefully.
Was this the Kagome he wanted to know? "I saw something pink." He said honestly. Unexpectedly Kagome sighed. "Of course… I was too careless." She stood up and putted her blazer back on. "I just heal faster then other people, that's all you need to know. Just forget what you saw." She said as she made her way to the door.
Takumi wanted to protest, but Kagome stopped from leaving the room before he could. "I'll tell you… one day…" It was soft but he heard it. Just what was the mystery that Kagome was?
Kagome was walking to the student council room, she wasn't in the mood to go to class, when she opened the door she saw Misaki working on her desk. "I didn't see you in class, thought you would come here eventually." Misaki said as she lifter her head to look at the raven-haired.
*Sigh*
"Misaki-san… what should I do?" Kagome began whining as she made her way to her own chair to sit down. "I'm becoming more and more reckless these days."
"I noticed." Misaki stated. "I just don't know what to do…" Kagome whispered, placing her head on the table. "Haven't you always told me to listen to your heart?" Kagome could just hear the teasing in Misaki's voice.
"Urg, you're sounding like him." Kagome complained. "Him?" Misaki asked. "Inuyasha?" Hearing the name from her friend's mouth Kagome looked up. It used to be Inuyasha. Comparing every boy she met to Inuyasha and complaining about it with Misaki, who would then have the urge just to meet him and kill him, which would be hard since Inuyasha was still an Inu-Hanyou.
But it wasn't him anymore… and she wasn't compare Takumi to Inuyasha, but Inuyasha to Takumi… She was hoping that Inuyasha would've been more like Takumi, perhaps then things would be different.
"Iie… it isn't Inuyasha." Even Kagome sounded confused when she answered. Misaki sighed and walked over to her friend. "Kagome-chan… what is your heart telling you?" She asked her again.
"I don't know… I don't know what my heart is saying…" Kagome confessed being so confused about everything. "If you don't know, don't worry about it now." Misaki placed a hand on her shoulder in comfort. "How about we hang out sometime? Just away from work for the school and just relax." Kagome looked up to see Misaki smiling.
"Yeah, that sounds nice." Kagome smiled back. She stood up to give Misaki a hug. "Arigatou! You're a great friend Misaki-san!" Misaki hugged her back, breathing in her soothing scent. She then urged Kagome to go back to class; she stayed because she had some work to do anyway.
2-1 for Misaki. She smirked. "You're gonna have a hard time Usui Takumi." She said to herself. A sweet smile blossomed on her lips. "Maybe Kagome needs to understand herself, before others understand her…"
"Ah! I just thought of the perfect color…"Takumi said to himself as he sipped his coffee. "Really, which one is it?" Satsuki came over to his table because she overheard him.
"Walking along the path she chose, without being affected by others. In this sense, white's her color." Takumi said an unusual smile came on his face. "Eh? That's somehow unexpected." Satsuki murmured.
"Ah! Takumi! Why are you here again?!" Kagome appeared in front of the staff room walking towards his table. He smirked as took another sip from his coffee.
"Because I missed Kago-chan of course."
KT: Bit Short but it's done! I was stressing out sooo much TT. TT It is a bit shorter then normal and later…. Sorry! But hope everyone still enjoys it!^^
NOTE: I usually draw stuff for my fanfiction, but I hadn't had the time for this one. And I'll be going on vacation this Monday so I won't be able to work well this coming week. So if we reach above 10 reviews again (which I truly hope for) then it might be a bit later. Other than that! If the update is going to be the following week than expect it every Thursday!
MUST KNOW!: Last one… I promise! For those, again… who aren't familiar with my work. I always hide hints for future chapters in them. And I love it when people try to find them or think they found them or have a theory! Of course suggestions can always be made and I always consider them putting them in the original plot and if I don't I'll always give you a proper explanation about why not. So by all means, try to search for my hints, make up a theory and if you have suggestions just say so. I'll be sure to credit ^^
