Chapter 3
My Own Personal Stalker
I scowled, sitting in that ever-fun bus seat. Most of the time I was okay with the bus…but this time, the person sitting next to me was…I guess you could call it undesirable. Yup. The person sitting beside me was the one and only Akimura Miroku, and at the time being he was doing his best to well…be Akimura. That includes staring, flirting, and worst of all…groping.
Yes folks you heard me. Groping, at this point he was pretending to fall- yes I know…you could say I'm jumping to conclusions but I just know that gleam in his eyes. The gleam of pure evil…or something of the sort. Well as I was saying, he was pretending to fall and accidentally land his hand on my chest. Oh the chances of a hand falling on your chest when the guy is leaning the opposite direction.
"Gomen nasai Sango-san!" Akimura said, a false innocence in his voice, the falseness only noticeable by the satisfied look on his face.
"It's Akiyama-san. Not Sango-san." I replied stiffly, glaring darkly at Akimura.
"Aww…c'mon Akiyama-san! We are neighbors!" Akimura whined, a pitiful look on his face. Unable to take the full force of the puppy dog eyes I glared.
"Fine!" I snarled, and then turned to sulk and look out the window as a very pleased Akimura sat in his seat, savoring his victory.
After what felt like hours, we were finally at out stop, stalking towards my house, I couldn't help but notice that Akimura followed me, finally, annoyed I turned around.
"Tell me Akimura…why do you keep following me, even to my own home?" Akimura smirked.
"Sango-san…did you forget that, oh…I…live…right…next…door…?" Akimura remarked slyly, as a bright red blush formed on my face out of embarrassment. How could I forget that? I have no earthly clue. Blame Akimura.
"Oh…uh…ahem. I was just…er…testing you…" I mumbled, looking around and trying to hide my blush.
"Well, feel free to test me whenever you want Sango-chan…" he whispered seductively in my ear as he walked passed me, effectively stunning me enough to cop a feel, but not stunning me enough where I couldn't slap him all the way to tomorrow.
Huffing I began my walk down the street, and then stalked towards my house, leaving behind a stunned Akimura with a shining red print the size of my hand, although he was grinning.
The last thing I heard before I slammed the door was Akimura's mumbled, "It was totally worth it…" that brought my face to a completely red hue, and the door slamming quickly shut.
Wait a minute, my mind suddenly did a rewind, as I remembered what Akimura had called me. 'Sango-chan'. Those words coming from his lips seemed like poison to my mind, who had given him permission to use that? Oh well, he'd feel it when we got to school.
The time passed by quickly and pretty soon chichue and Kohaku had gotten home. I at the time was watching TV. Well more like scowling at the TV but that's not the point.
I glared, flipping the channels, as if in five seconds, something good would come on television.
"Sango, we have guests! Turn off the TV and set the table." The sound of my chichue's voice brought me into reality and onto my chores. Randomly I wondered who our guests were…that's when I spotted him.
Akimura Miroku, sitting with a completely innocent look on his face that slowly but surely spread to a low smirk as he saw my astonished expression. Next to him sat some old man, apparently Akimura's guardian.
My content mood suddenly disappeared, as I went to set the table, slamming the food in the center and passing out the necessary utensils.
Quickly we said our blessings and sat down to eat. The dinner itself was one that you could hardly call enjoyable, Akimura sitting there acting the part of the friendly neighbor with no bad intentions what so ever, Kohaku going on to tell about how one of his friends had done something not even worth mentioning and father and Akimura's guardian who had sooner or later revealed himself to be Mushin. I stayed quiet for my part, not wanting to encourage Akimura the slightest to come back.
After dinner was done I grabbed Akimura by the shirt and led him to my room and then abruptly let go of his shirt and looked at him to explain himself.
Knowing Akimura he took this the wrong way and enveloped me into a hug, practically squealing, "Ah! Sango-chan! I never knew you liked me this way to! I'll tell your father about our wedding preparations…" Akimura continued to babble on as I stiffened, the hug making my face turn red, slightly from anger…and though I loathe to say it, mostly from embarrassment. Hey, what could I say, you couldn't call Akimura ugly. Oho…no way was he ugly…well that's beside the point.
After breaking out of his embrace I jabbed my finger into his chest, thoroughly exasperated. "What…are you…doing here!" I practically snarled.
"Why, visiting of course. Your father and brother were nice enough to invite me, and I could hardly say not to such a tantalizing offer, as it meant seeing your lovely face one more time!" Akimura replied smoothly, a sly grin playing across his face.
"That's not what I mean!" I growled, jabbing his chest one more time. "Do you enjoy stalking me or something!"
Akimura gave a seductive smile before answering, "Ahh…now you can figure out yourself if I enjoy stalking you Sango-chan…for I think you already know the answer to that question…" Akimura trailed off, not needing to finish the sentence.
"Oh joy…my own personal stalker…! What fun…!" I mumbled, not realizing it was out loud, and only then did I realize I had said it when Akimura smirked at me.
"You know it babe." Thus Akimura left my room, a victorious air about him as he waved good bye and left the house for what I hoped was his first and final time.
After he left I walked slowly up the stairs into my bedroom and buried my face into my pillow, only then did I realize, that when I was so caught up in my rage he had called me 'Sango-chan' two more times. A low growl came into my throat, slowly followed by a small grin. Akimura Miroku…you're going to hate the day when you tried to annoy Akiyama Sango. Two can play at this game…

Preview of Next Chapter
I laughed as I walked into the class room, only to be met with the glare of Tanuki-san.
"Akiyama-san." Tanuki-san demanded in that annoyingly grating voice of his. "Detention." I winced, could my day get any worse?Oh...how could I forget- of course it could...and probably would.
