Kagome's P.O.V

The sound of many voices reached her ears long before she had left the dormitory. And as expected of her roommate, she had left one of her chocolates behind. A smile briefly appearing on her lips. Yumi was a sweet girl, and like the rest of the masses went crazy over the night class. Something she could understand, but at the same time not, having lived with a Demon that was beyond good looking.

But her being a bit of a scatterbrained blond only made what she needed to do easier. It had been almost a full week since the contract had been made. And having to learn to filter her thoughts was not as easy as one might think. But then again, sharing those with one Kaname Kuran had made it fun. He was not such a stiff like he presented himself to be. In fact, he did have a very warped sense of humor, so she was able at times to let loose and be very colorful.

He was also sweet. At least compared to what Kagome had dealt with daily before coming to the Academy. He could be persistent when he wanted to as well, though that did annoy her. And had a subtle manner of asking questions to get answers. Sneaky. But still, she had held out on telling how she was going to introduce herself, for the first time, to the night class.

Shaking her head as she came out the gate for the Academy, small wrapped blue box in hand. She knew which line her roommate would be in. So darting around behind the masses, Kagome stealthily made her way through the crowd. She was earning a few curious glares from those who noticed her presence. Though she denied them even a glance in response. Kagome was focusing on her target, her roommate.

Soon enough, Kagome was at the appropriate line. She was hearing the name being called out by the screeching fangirls, making her wiggle her nose in distaste at it all. Slowly she weaved her way through the crowd of people until she saw a familiar set of blond pigtails set high on the head with green ribbons. Kagome let a soft smile curved her lips. She was placed perfectly.

Of course, Yumi was near the front of the line. Of course, Yumi had yet to notice that she didn't have her chocolate. And Kagome was not waiting to hear the cry of dismay, she dashed up to her friend, just as she reached the front of the line, tapping her friend on the shoulder, just as Yumi had started to rummage in her jacket.

"You forgot this in class, Yumi."

At her softly spoken words, Yumi spun around to look down at her. Brown eyes wide in shock, before giving a nod of her head and a wide smile. Turning, she thrust the gift out to her chosen vampire, Hanabusa Aido. Who was looking directly at Kagome? She wasn't sure but shrugged and started to turn when it happened.

The loud kyah across the way before the sound of a body hitting the ground. Not thinking Kagome pushed past Yumi, ducked under the rope barrier, and was across the way before anyone could react. Already Kaname was helping Yuki up as she reached her side. Kneeling, she didn't even look up at Kaname.

"Are you okay, Yuki?"

Her voice was tender as she saw Kaname stand up, double-check Yuki as well and back away. As she got her nod from Yuki, who was looking at her as if she were some strange monster. Before Kagome turned her head to look at the group of girls who had knocked Yuki down, raising an eyebrow the fangirls who seemed to take the admonishment for what it was. Even as they cast, her suspicious looks mixed with envy.

"Kuran, you dropped this!"

At the sound of Zero's voice, Kagome looked at him just as he threw the small wrapped box. With a shake of her head as Yuki panicked a bit. Only to go quite as Kaname thanked her for the chocolate. Making Kagome snicker mentally to the man, which earned her a slight stiffening of his shoulders.

"I was not aware, Miss Higurashi, that you were one of the rabid fangirls."

Letting her blue gaze meet Zero's intense purple one, Kagome batted her eyelashes coyly at him. A tight smile on her lips as she let her shoulder roll forwards acting demurely. She was playing up the whole fangirl thing towards him.

"Why Zero, I would never dream of making you jealous by fawning over people who are just like you and me, but prettier."

The reaction she got from him as Yuki let her chin hit her chest to hide her mirth, even as her shoulders shook with her silent laughter. Kagome dropped her facade and stood her full height, shoulders were thrown back and glared at him. Enjoying the fact his face had gone red with a mix of emotions.

"Now, if you don't mind, I just came to give Yumi her forgotten chocolate. I must return to the dormitory to study. I care about graduating from school and having a decent intelligence level."

With that said, Kagome walked right by Zero, making sure to brush him with her shoulder. Careful not to let her Reiki zap him again. While enjoying his discomfort at her nearness.

? P.O.V

Repetitive and boring was how one could describe the daily fiasco of walking from the Moon Dorm to the Academy. Sure it was nice to have the attention, but there was no real point to it. If only they knew what we were. Would they react the same way? Probably not. Fear would coat their smells, panic shining in their eyes.

But today had been different. It was not every day that one gets to see someone write off Zero Kiryu. And in such a manner that left the boy unable to give a snappish reply. Or the fact that they didn't seem to care about how pretty and beautiful the night class was. So in a sense, it left an odd feeling in his gut.

Then again, the girl was strange in her own right. She could easily pass for one of them. But she was most definitely human. He knew the moment he had seen her that she was different. The way she acted as if nothing was out of the normal, pushing past Hanabusa to help Yuki. Her concern was flashing in those intense blue eyes of hers.

Eyes that drew one in with their color and made you stare. While he seemed not to take notice of things around him, he saw more and knew more than he let on. And for some reason, this girl drew his attention like a moth to a flame.

With a shake of his head, he put any more thoughts to rest as he entered the school gates for class. Knowing that he'd probably not see her again since she made it quite clear that she found it demeaning to fawn over others.

TBC!
