Disclaimer: Bishonen'sFoxyMiko and I do not own Loveless or InuYasha…even though I am sure that we both wish with all our beings that we did. The sad thing is InuYasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi, and Loveless to Yun Kouga.

A/N from Bishonen'sFoxyMiko: I hope you guys enjoyed the turn about DeathNoteMaker made in the last chapter because I sure did. And yes, there may be a new pairing with Kagome and I agreed with it. Hope you guys had a better Christmas than I did and hope you have a good New Year.

Chapter Four

To say that Soubi was shocked to hear that Kagome called him Seimei's Fighter Unit was an understatement. How could this young girl, who is also his classmate, know that he was "Beloved's" Fighter Unit?

His brows furrowed slightly as he asked her that question. There was a chance that she was working for the same people who had killed his previous master.

Kagome's cat-ears swerved back before she lowered her gaze with a light blush on her cheeks. Before she had the chance to answer him, Kio came out calling out, "Kagome! Soubi! Let's have something to drink before Break's almost over!"

Kagome frowned a little before looking at her cell phone for the time, wondering how time could've gone by so quick. Giving up with a sigh, she called back in reply to her Fighter, "Alright, Kio! Coming!" And she left to go back to the class room, leaving Soubi to stare at her in curiosity; wondering who she knew his previous master as well as his current master.

Once they had gotten a drink from one of the many vending machines, Soubi couldn't help but be more curious than before after Kagome almost gave him an answer to his. The blond fighter of Beloved listened to Kio and Kagome's conversation about meeting up and making plans for any future partner/group projects that were sure to come up for the semester.

Soon a fellow male student from their class came looking for them saying that break was almost over.

Once they were back at the classroom, Kagome went straight to work on the final stage of her drawing, using watercolors to give it an old Japanese effect to it. She made sure to be careful in her strokes and who much paint and water to use. The miko wanted the portrait to be perfect. Even though Seimei was no longer around, she could still give it to Ritsuka.

Throughout the class, Kio always noticed that Soubi kept staring at his friend and Sacrifice every once in a while. He grinned a little at thinking how Soubi may be attracted to Kagome. Sure he liked Soubi but him trying to make the other Fighter Unit go to bed with him was just for laughs; to see how the slightly taller male would react.

Plus, he hoped that Kagome would be able to move on from her love with Seimei.

Shaking his head a little, he went back to work on his portrait.

The end of the day came quickly as Ritsuka was about to leave out the door to meet Kagome at the front gate but was stopped by his teacher, Shinonome-sensei. "Ah, Aoyagi-kun, I wanted to ask you something."

The boy turned curiously to his cat eared teacher, "What about, sensei?"

"Um… it's about the young woman who dropped you off this morning…" Hitomi replied nervously, despite that she loved to teach kids, she was always so nervous when trying to talk to them about problems, especially concerning things personal in their lives.

"Kagome-Né-chan? What about her?" Now Ritsuka was really curious as to where this was leading to.

Hitomi fiddled with her fingers, "I… was just wondering who she was… how did she come to live with you?"

Her student was silent for a moment before his sights turned to the front gate, outside the window where the subject of the question was waiting. Ritsuka then turned to his teacher and answered, "She used to be friends with my brother… and she came to live with me and my family so that she could be closer to the college she's enrolled in." Before Hitomi could ask more questions, Ritsuka voiced, "Gotta go, sensei. Né-chan doesn't like to wait long. See you the day after tomorrow!"

The young teacher sighed before turning to look out the window in time to see Ritsuka run up to Kagome with a huge smile before he wrapped his arms around her waist. She also watched how Kagome wrapped her arms around him lovingly before kissing the top of his head. After they seemed to exchange greetings, the two of them walked off hand in hand.

Hitomi had a deep feeling that there was more to Kagome's involvement in Ritsuka's life. She just had no idea what.

'I definitely have to have a talk with her…' She thought before leaving for the teachers' lounge to grade some papers.

After leaving the school, Kagome and Ritsuka took the bus to the hospital where Katsuko-sensei, Ritsuka's therapist was working. Therapy was Misaki's idea, thinking there was something mentally wrong with her youngest son. From what the miko had gathered from Katsuko-sensei, they believed that sometime when Ritsuka was ten he went through a personality change that also made him lose his memories from before he was ten years old.

Kagome found it odd, yes but the miko believed something else had happened. Something that Seimei didn't tell her. She couldn't really ask Ritsuka because she didn't know of he knew what the cause was.

Once they had arrived at the hospital, Kagome went with Ritsuka to meet with Katsuko-sensei, a shorthaired woman who looked to be in her mid, maybe late twenties. She was a sweet woman who seemed to adore Ritsuka, wishing she was some years younger so that she could date him.

The miko inwardly laughed at that, finding it strangely funny and cute at the same time.

"Ritsuka-kun… Kagome-san, how are you this afternoon?" The said therapist greeted the two with a smile when they entered her room.

"We're fine. Thank you, Katsuko-sensei. And you?" Kagome greeted as Ritsuka sat down on the couch patients always sat in.

"Same as always… looking forward to another session with Ritsuka-kun."

After a nod, Kagome spoke, "Well, I'll leave Rit-chan in your hands while I wait outside." She then turned toward Ritsuka before kissing him on the forehead, reminding him that she would be waiting for him right outside.

Katsuko smiled at how caring Kagome was toward her patient. The young college girl was truly a saint when it came to taking care of Ritsuka while still in the same room with his mother. She could also see the great impact she had on Ritsuka's life. The longer Kagome stayed in the Aoyagi house, the fewer wounds Ritsuka had and the more he acted his age, aside from being a loner.

Once Kagome left the room, Katsuko turned to her cute patient, "So… how are you today Ritsuka?"

Ritsuka gave a soft smile, "Okay."

"Has anything special happened this week?"

Not really. Other than my teacher asking about Kagome-Né-chan, nothing much" Ritsuka answered. After a while of silence, Ritsuka requested, "Come on, sensei. Do that thing."

"That thing?"

"You know. The Hypnosis."

Katsuko-sensei sighed before answering, "Alright, but I don't know that it will work the way you think it will, Ritsuka-kun." The young therapist knew that Ristuka was scared… even though he was giving a strong front, she knew he was actually scared.

Ritsuka then made the theory of if he went back to two years ago, then there was a chance that "Ritsuka" could come back. Katsuko changed that subject about his injuries by asking him if his mother, Misaki had given him them. The session carried on about what Ritsuka would do if the "other Ritsuka" ever came back…

After the session was over with Ritsuka taking a picture with Katsuko-sensei and the young boy taking a picture of Kagome and Katsuko together, the miko took Ritsuka home.

The two of them had an idea of what would be waiting for them when they got home. It always happened every time Ritsuka came home from therapy…

Only two pages, I know. But I was in a bind for what else should happen. Next is Shí-chan's turn to write chapter five. Hope you guys enjoyed.
