Following someone was a lot harder than television said. Kuwabara couldn't count the number of times he'd watched spies in movies follow the bad guy around undetected and with little effort. Kuwabara had lost sight of Shizuru several times, finding her again by luck, and more than once he'd been forced to dive behind cover to keep her from spotting him.
Either Shizuru was more observant than TV villains, or Kuwabara was lacking in sneaky spy skills.
Despite his difficulties Kuwabara remained unnoticed as Shizuru met that Shiro guy. Kuwabara decided he didn't like the look of him. Shiro had straight black hair and long bangs that covered one eye (which seemed silly to Kuwabara; how was he supposed to see?). He was dressed in a black T-shirt with skulls printed on it, baggy black pants, and black boots.
No doubt about it, Shiro was villain material.
Kuwabara's eyes narrowed as they held hands and started walking down the sidewalk. Shizuru wouldn't hold their dad's hand, but she'd hold this guy's hand? What was up with that?
"What are you doing?"
Kuwabara managed not to scream at the unexpected voice. He glared at Urameshi. "Don't sneak up on me like that!"
Urameshi rolled his eyes. "I wasn't sneaking."
Kuwabara glanced back at Shizuru to make sure he hadn't lost her. He saw the two go inside a café. "I'm following Shizuru," he said as he crept up to the café window to peek in.
"Why?"
"Cause she's on a date and Dad was worried the guy might do something."
Urameshi frowned. "Like what?"
"I don't know…Hurt her?"
Urameshi peered in the café window too. "You couldn't take him on your own," he said. "I'll stay with you."
Kuwabara wanted to protest, but didn't. Truthfully, he was grateful for the backup.
