Move Along
Chapter 016
"Yo, Otori," Kagome called out, running up to the darker haired boy before he could enter the school.
Kagome had to give him credit, he didn't seem fazed at all. He merely turned around and raised an eyebrow expectantly and spoke, "Yes, Higurashi."
She had to resist the urge to laugh. He reminded her so much of a human version of Sesshomaru.
"I'll join the Host Club," she abruptly stated.
That did garner a reaction from the cool teenager. Adjusting his glasses he asked, "What changed your mind?"
Kagome nonchalantly shrugged her shoulders and answered, "Haruhi, and that's my catch."
His glasses gleamed ominously as he inquired, "Which would be…?"
She smiled at his obvious concern for the female host. He was easier to read than he thought. "My earnings go towards her debt."
Kyoya's eyes narrowed, instantly catching her words. "Her? You know then," he speculated.
"Of course. It's not a very well-kept secret," Kagome scoffed, smiling arrogantly at the boy in front of her.
Kyoya inwardly cursed. He had virtually no information to barter with and had no choice but to give in. "I see, considering the circumstances we have a deal then."
"Good."
"As long as you keep Haruhi's gender a secret of course," he confirmed.
"Sure thing, Otori. As long as you don't tell her about our deal," Kagome breezily replied, waving him off. "Later."
"You're not going to class?"
"Nope, got better places to be today. But I will see you first thing Monday." And with that she turned her back on the boy and took off towards her bike.
