A/N Hey guys! So it turns out that it's going to be easier for me to post chapters on weekdays than it will be on weekends. Isn't that funny? Well anyway, hope you enjoy. Updates might be sporadic for a bit while I work on my algebra project and think of more chapter ideas to lead up to a few things I have in mind but can't have happen right off the bat. ;)
DISCLAIMER; I do not own Kaichou wa Maid-Sama! I only own my own original characters and the writing in this story.

Chapter 6; Building Anger...
When she gets close to her classroom, a boy with black hair stops her. "Silvermorthnone-san?"
She stops, "Yes?"
"Igarashi-sama wishes to speak with you. May I show you to the student council room?"
Hm... she thinks to herself, "Of course." she follows after the vice president. This seem suspicious.
/~;~\
Silently, Kailey follows after Maki. She was curious as to what Igarashi wanted from her but that curiosity was backed by a huge sense of suspicion and danger. Just what is he up to... she thinks to herself.
"Here we are, Silvermorthnone-san." He holds the door open for her and enters behind her.
"Thank you." she says quietly, standing in front of the door and waiting for Igarashi to speak.
"Silvermorthnone-san is here as requested, Igarashi-sama." Maki says to the golden-eyed boy.
"Thank you Maki. Would you fetch us drinks, please?" The way he said it...sounded sly. Kailey decided that she was going to keep her guard up for whatever 'drinks' Maki was going to bring them. "Please, come take a seat Kailey-chan." he gestures to the area on the couch beside him.
With a growing sense of dread, she went and sat on the side farthest from him, watching him silently with a small smile on her face. At least he has added an honorific back to my name. Even if he is calling me by my first name and using a honorific used for those closest to you. But it's a step up from before. she muses in her mind, keeping her fake smile unwavering.
"I trust you are enjoying yourself here so far? How was your lunch?" He asks her, acting like a gentleman.
She could tell the act was fake by the malicious and lustful glint in his eyes. I see... she thinks to herself as she responds, "Yes, it is quite the magnificent school. The food is exquisite as well, thank you." Her performance was spectacular, acting like the perfect sophisticated and elegant lady she wasn't. She hated it. Always having to act so prim and proper around the rich little brats. But it beats living with her father and little sister. At least now she had an inkling of freedom. She could still spend time with Takumi and Misaki if she was careful to keep a low-down appearance. She didn't want to draw unnecessary attention to herself after all.
"Excellent. I am happy to hear that. I try to keep the school a pleasant place. It is my job as student council president, after all." he exclaims with mock humility. I don't think I've ever met such a fake person...Wait...Aren't I like that too though? she thinks to herself, grimacing inward at the comparison.
She nods, smiling brighter as Maki walks over carrying two glasses filled with a orange-yellow liquid on a silver tray. Her eyes narrow as she sees the forced action of tripping. Suddenly the two glasses are falling forwards towards her and in a primal instinct, she flips back over the couch to land gracefully on her feet as the two glasses crash into where she had just been moments before. Carefully hiding her flaring anger, she says calmly, "Oh my. Are you alright Maki-san?"
Igarashi was staring at her with a look of surprise in his eyes that slowly turned into intense amusement. Her anger blazed even more hotly inside of her but she was careful to hide it. Shit..much more and even I won't be able to hide such an emotion...Just what is he playing at? she growled in her mind. Maki looked shaken and apologetic and it was almost believable. "I'm so sorry Silvermorthnone-san, Igarashi-sama. Are you two ok?" He frantically wiped at the mess and picked up the broken glass, pushing it onto the silver tray.
Kailey smiled, closing her narrowed eyes, "Yes I am fine."
Igarashi nods his head, "It's alright Maki. No harm done." He turned his yellow eyes on her with an inquisitive expression plastered on his face, "You have quite fast-and graceful-reflexes, Kailey-chan. Quite impressive." There was a hint of irritation in his eyes that barely showed, hidden by his fake smirk.
What? Did I ruin your plan? Po-or baby. she thought sarcastically, "Yes. My father had me learn many forms of self-defense. The art of graceful movements was one of them and they also teach her reflexes to react faster and stronger."
Maki places a towel over the stained spot on the couch, finished cleaning for now. She realized with annoyance that she wouldn't be able to sit as far away from Igarashi as she had liked. Sighing inwardly, she sat next to him on the couch. He leaned back into the cushions and put an arm over the backrest behind her.
"Well, I guess we will have to move onto business without the drinks. So, our school is going to be putting on a play for the school festival. I was hoping you would be willing to audition. You would be a good fit for the leading female role, I think. Auditions are this saturday from 9 in the morning to 5 in the evening."
Kailey watches him for some sign of malicious intent but can sense none, "Very well. I will be there." Her eyes widen less than a centimeter at the dark and evil look that comes over Igarashis' face for a fraction of a second before disappearing again. Confused, she waits for him to say something more. Did I just imagine it? she thinks.
/~;~\
When she says she'll be there, Tora gives a look of dark satisfaction show for a fraction of a second. I've got her now... he thinks maliciously to himself. If it had been any else besides this girl in front of him, the look would have gone unnoticed. But he knew she had seen it by the way her eyes widen ever so slightly. He quickly covers the look, saying in a completely endearing voice and a bright smile, "Good. I'm looking forward to seeing you. It should be a good play. You are free to go now. I will walk back to our class with you." he catches the slight lock of her jaw as he stands up, offering a hand to help her rise. She accepts it disgruntledly. How amusing...She's nothing like anyone I've ever met before. She acts like a proper lady but she seems quite rebellious and stubborn. How delightful. I can't wait to break her down and take her... he thinks to himself, pulling her to her feet.
"Thank you." she says, faking a polite and cheery voice.
Together they walk to their class, a look of slight worry hidden by a smile on her face and a look of smug success covered by his signature smirk on his. He holds the door to their class open to her and then walks in behind her as the bell rings.

A/N Yo. Hope you guys enjoyed. I think the next chapter will either be Kailey, Misa, and Takumi or Kailey and Tora surprised to meet somewhere where neither of them suspected the other to do. What do you guys wanna see?
