"Nai, Kagome!"
Kagome turned at the soft whisper to her left, it was Kagura. "Shh~" she pointed to the teacher than turned her attention back to her notes.
"Don't shhh me!"
"Miss. Onigumo...is there something you would like to share with the class?"
Kagome stared up at her friend and stifled a laugh in her friends' expense as she watched her blush before shaking her head.
"No ma'am."
Kagome looked down at her notes and continued writing as her teacher went back to teaching, Kagura seemed somewhat irritated by the outcome, but sat silently waiting for class to end.
Once it did, all hell broke loose.

Kagome winced slightly as Kagura tightly gripped her wrist and pulled her off towards an empty classroom. "You stood my brother up!"
Kagome blinked in confusion, "...no, I didn't."
"So you went to meet him?" Kagura frowned, "What did he look like?"
Kagome laughed, "Don't know what your own brother looks like?"
"I do, you don't."
'Kami, what is wrong with her!' Kagome sighed, "...he had maroon red hair which flipped out a bit, and large, bright indigo blue eyes...three inches taller than me, and he was really nice."
"...yeah...uh, no, no, no...and hell no."
Kagome looked taken aback by the harshness of her friend.
"First off, he has black hair, like me...and red eyes...like me! He's about six inches taller than you, and he is the farthest thing from nice. You met some stranger, and slept with him."
"..." Kagome frowned, a crimson blush staining her cheeks at those words. "Y-your kidding...but, why didn't you tell me what he looked like yesterday, or his name at least!"
Kagura shrugged, "Didn't think about it."
"...i-it doesn't matter," Kagome gave a soft stutter as she yanked her wrist free from Kagura's grasp, "I'm not sleeping around with anyone anymore. This isn't my scene. I...I can't do it."
Kagura sneered, "You can't get out of this so easily, you only just started, Kagome, I've been doing this shit since I was twelve! I recruited your ass, now be a good fucking girl and listen! I set up another date for you."
"No," Kagome glared, "I won't do it!"
Kagura gave a cold look to the girl, which melted into a cruel glare, "You act as if you have a choice."
"...You don't get it, do you?" Kagome asked in a very melancholy manner, "If you pester me anymore about this," Kagome turned her back to Kagura and placed her hand on the door, "I'll get the cops involved." She left Kagura staring stunned at her as she shut the door behind her and made her way out of the school.
"...damn...Kagura is so..." Kagome closed her eyes tightly, 'I can't trust her...it's sad, I call her my friend, but I've never trusted her...not once did I feel like I really could.'
"Oh...Kagome...?"
Opening her eyes, Kagome smiled, "Ann, hey!" Ann Tachibana was the little sister of their guys' tennis teams' captain, oh, not that Kagome ever called her that, she knew better. "Always when your needed, but never wanted," Kagome muttered to herself, but smiled all the same, "I'm actually grateful...think you could lend me an ear? I could use some advice."
"...ah...sure!" She smiled, walking after Kagome who sat down off to the side of their tennis team. "What's up?"
"Mm...it's kind of embarrassing,"
Ann smiled, "When I was nine, my skirt got caught on the train station doors, it ripped in the back, and was really embarrassing, had it not been for Kamio, I would have never gone to school." She laughed, sticking her tongue out cutely as she knocked her self gently on the head with her knuckles.
"Ah...Kamio and your brother...also Ibu...they were really close, huh?"
Ann blushed, "Yeah...I'm sure your situation can't be worse than mine..."
Kagome grimaced, "I guess I'll start at the beginning, please, just promise you wont say anything to anyone else...I...I don't know if I'd be able to live with myself if anyone but you and Kagura knew."
"Ah, if Kagura knows, why not discuss it with her? Not that I won't listen, of course..."
"Kagura is being weird...she got me to do this, I was desperate enough that she offered her help...I am to blame for accepting...uh, she isn't being helpful, she's being very...unhelpful."
"Alright, then tell me all that you can, and I will be the source of reason and wisdom!"
Kagome smiled, starting at the beginning, with the day before yesterday.

(Next Day: Lunch)
"Hey, Eiji..."
Eiji blinked out of his daze and turned to face his classmate and best friend, "Hai, Fuji?"
"You're spacing out, what's up?"
"...mm...nothing, don't worry about it." He grinned, "I just can't wait to get out of school, nya~!"
"Ah...plans after practice?"
Eiji smiled, "Not yet...but here's hoping!"
Eiji ran off dragging Fuji down the hall towards the stairs to the rooftop where he found a few others sitting and eating their lunches. He placed his own bento down as Fuji sat down beside him, smiling as he started talking with Momoshiro when Momo stood up to a sudden ringing coming from his pocket.
"Ehh?! Ann?" He answered the phone nervously before frowning, pouting and sighing, and then holding his cellphone out to Eiji to take, "She wants to talk to you."
"Hoi, hoi~!"
"Eiji, this is Ann. Can you find a spot further away from the others, that way they can't hear what I have to say? It's important."
Eiji frowned, standing, he walked off towards the other side of the roof and looked back at his friends as they watched him curiously, Oishi stood and followed worriedly, but stopped when Eiji narrowed his eyes and moved back further, "They can't hear, go ahead."
"Kagome..."
Eiji's eyes widened for a moment before he turned his attention back to the call.
"...you know her, right? Higurashi, Kagome?"
"Yeah, w-we're dating...why do you ask?"
"Ah...she's in the Hospital..."
