Requested by anon: How would Kagome react to realizing/finding out Nicolas has a crush on her(Nico from Gangsta :D)

Anime: Gangsta x Inuyasha

Pairing: Nicolas Brown x Kagome Higurashi

How in the world was she supposed to get up there? Cerulean orbs narrowed as the miko scanned the branches of the tree for any sign of the black neko. Having heard from a girl nearby say she had lost her cat, she could not ignore her plea of trying to find it.

'And I found it alright,' she sighed to herself. Placing her hand over her eyes, Kagome watched as the black neko continued to sway its tail side to side as it enjoyed the high view. 'I am sure it is a very nice view,' she groaned mentally. Feeling her shoulders drop slightly, she could feel her stress patting her down. Working for Dr. Theo was not the easiest job (especially when you get two Benriyas always coming in wounded for free services), but even dealing with normal civilians was a tough job.

She was thankful to Nina how much of a hard worker she was. If it wasn't for her, she knew she would be swamped with patients with no end. Placing the brown bag of medicine containers beside the trunk of the tree, the miko rolled the long sleeves of her dress as she prepared her mind for the tough climb ahead. "Here we go," she whispered under her breath. Taking a step forward, she blinked as she saw a blur of black jump in front of her before it landed on the exact branch where the neko laid.

Kagome took a step back to get a better view of the male as she saw his calloused hands gently pick the neko up before placing the black pet into his button up shirt. She blinked again as the black-haired male landed in front of her with bent knees before coming to stand straight up.

"N-Nicolas-san?" she tilted her head to the side. What was he doing here? She had just been on her way to their place to deliver his medicine; the bag was sitting right beside the tree as proof.

Hearing a meow from his chest, the miko's eyes lowered to see the neko's bright yellow eyes come out and stare at her back. "Well, you certainly gave your owner some trouble," she chuckled, "but it is time to go home." Giving Nicolas a smile, she reached for the neko: "arigatou, Nicolas-san. I probably would have gotten stuck there myself." She was aware of his disability and tried to emphasize her words slowly on her lips. She was grateful to Worick's and Nina's patience with her as they tried teaching her sign language upon her request to learn.

The last thing she expected was for Nicolas to teach her himself when he would stay over at the clinic due to his wounds. Late nights were spent with both communicating through their hands and she had become fond of those moments, despite her messes ups from time to time.

Taking the neko into her own arms, she blinked as his medication came back to her memory. "Ah! Right!" making her way around the silent male, Kagome reached down for the brown bag before handing it to him. "Here you go," she smiled again, "I was on my way to your home, but I guess we got two jobs done here."

Nicolas raised a brow as he took the bag from the girl's hand and took a look inside. Bringing out one of the orange pill containers, he opened the lid effortlessly with his thumb before tilting his head back to take a few in.

"Ah! Chotto!" Kagome shouted, holding the neko with one arm as her other hand clasped around Nicolas's wrist. "I thought Nina and I told you to stop doing that!"

He grunted at her scold as his eyes remained on her mild-glare. Her grip tightened as she waited for him to take the only recommended dose. Closing his eyes, he grabbed two pills with his fingers before popping them into his mouth. Swallowing the pills down his throat, he sent her a raised brow as a sign of approval.

"Arigatou," the miko shook her head, "seriously, Nicolas-san, you are going to overdose on that. Please be responsible." Holding out her palm upwards, she gave Nicolas a raised brow herself: "Dr. Theo said to pay for the medication for this month. You are overdue, Nicolas-san."

Another grunt.

"I know you have the money, Nicolas-san."

He moved his hands: [I do not]

"Stop lying," she took a step forward, "look, it is important for you to have the medication. You might as well deal with me before does it himself." Kagome shook her head as the thought of the angry doctor came into her memory: "you know how he gets. At least give some sort of payment. Half? Maybe something in return?" Her eyebrows furrowed as she felt 's furry overwhelming her and gave Nicolas a hand sign: [I do not want to get yelled at too…this happened the last time, remember?]

Feeling a hand come to her wrist, she blinked as she raised her eyes to meet the dark hues of the Benriya. "N-Nicolas-"

"D-Date…," he spoke gruffly.

With wide eyes overtaking her expression, the miko stared at the male blankly. Had she heard right? He said what she heard, right? "Ano…what did you say, Nicolas-san?"

"Date."

The word was much clearer this time, no doubt the meaning was the same. What did he mean by a date? She was asking for payment! "Nicolas-san, I can't go right now! I have a David-san coming in for a checkup right after this!"

His eyebrows furrowed as he heard the male's name. He knew who David was and he had seen him in person. A young male in his twenties was getting to close to the innocent girl he had his eyes on. There was no way he would leave them alone. He gave her a message with his free hand: [tell I paid you by taking you out.]

"Wait-What!?" the color on her cheeks reddened. Her jumble thoughts began to calm down as she felt his calloused fingers brush against the skin of her wrist as they slowly traveled up to her palm and fingers. In a blink of an eye, she was tugged closer to his person, bringing her chest-to-chest with the Twilight. "N-Nicolas-san…what has gotten into you…?"

"Worick said to…take what I wanted," he began pulling her away from the main streets as he intertwined his fingers with the miko's, "before someone…else…takes it."

Kagome felt the burn on her cheeks increase as she saw stared at the broad shoulders of the Twilight. Did he mean…her? A tight squeeze of her hand brought her back to reality as she stared at their intertwined fingers. For someone who had killed since a young age and had rough skin, she never felt such gentleness from someone everyone feared. The way his fingers brushed against her skin calmed her beating heart as a small smile appeared on her lips.

With another mewl escaping the neko's being, Kagome blinked as she looked at her occupied arm: "Oh…guess you are coming with us for now, neko-chan."

Dr. Theo was going to kill both of them, but she would take it if it meant seeing this possessive side of Nicolas.
