Authors Notes:Now it seems some of you are a bit unhappy with my portrayal of Miyuki, but in the anime and manga they do not give you her personality and her thoughts down to an exact detail so I believe she fits the roll I gave her quite nicely; however, I could be wrong lol. Keep giving me your reviews!

How was she going to ask Konata for her notes and computer without that little blue haired menace finding out why she needed them? Kagami had been debating this ever since she left her house and was so deep into her thoughts that she almost missed her stop, even after she got off the train these thoughts wouldn't leave her alone.
"Maybe I can play it off as a joke." The twin tailed girl thought as she walked, but even that wouldn't have worked… Konata wasn't the smartest person, but she wasn't easily fooled.
Kagami thought up one idea after another on her fifteen minute walk to the otaku's house, but in the end, none of the ideas seemed worth trying. When it came to teasing Kagami, nothing could fool that otaku. The tsundere eventually gave up on trying to find a way to hide it and just accepted the fact she would never live this down.
Upon reaching Konata's front door only one thought crossed Kagami's mind. "This is going to end me…"
(Knock, Knock, Knock.)
"I'm coming, hold on!" Konata shouted cutely, in a sort of sing-song like voice.
After a moment Konata suddenly opened the door with one of her best smiles, the blunette figured it was a salesman of some sort and was surprised to see her best friend. Kagami was standing there awkwardly with a bright pink blush and it was obvious to Konata that the taller girl needed something from her older friend, since Konata had pinned down that look a long time ago.
"Hey Kagamin~, what are you doing here?" Konata hummed as she looked at the tsundere with a playful expression, intending on making Kagami suffer to get what she wanted.
"Well, you… My computer crashed and so…" Kagami said looking at anything except the shorter girl, who she just knew was going to tease her for this. Konata's face lit up upon hearing the words 'crashed' and 'computer', knowing instantly what the older twin wanted, a devious aura soon surrounded the girl.
"What is it you wanted again Kagamin~?" Konata cooed as she rubbed her face on the taller girl's arm.
Kagami couldn't take it, she knew it wasn't going to be easy, but she had no idea saying the few words she needed to was going to be so insanely difficult.
"I need help with my homework." Kagami said very slowly as strained voice, trying to keep her voice from cracking. Kagami had to admit that this experience ranked at least five on the most embarrassing moments scale and Konata had put her through a lot since they first met two years ago.
Konata went silent and Kagami couldn't resist the urge to look down at the smaller girl; Konata had her cat like grin plastered to her face, her cheeks were bulging out showing that she was trying her hardest not to laugh.
"Here it comes." Kagami thought in horror.
"Wait right here and don't move!" Konata commanded happily as she sprinted back into her house and closed the front door, leaving Kagami standing there extremely puzzled.
"Why am I just standing here? What does she want...?" Kagami wondered, but she didn't move. For some reason the little otaku had completely immobilized the taller girl, it had to have been the tone she used. Kagami could only describe it as possessive, if not owning… Like a master commanding a dog and that thought irritated her a little bit, still she didn't move from where she stood.
The minutes went by and Kagami was seriously considering just turning around and going home when the tiny otaku finally opened the front door and stepped outside.
"Okay I called your mom and she said it was okay for you to stay over tonight!" Konata cheered as she hugged the tsundere, but like always, she was swiftly pushed back.
"Konata I didn't want to spend the night I just want to use your computer for a little while." Kagami sighed as she pushed the blunette backwards to about an arms distance.
"I was gonna say you can use my computer, but you have to do something for me first!" Konata said smugly as she held up a video camera that Kagami hadn't noticed at first. Kagami was worried, she needed to use the computer to keep her A grade average, but it had to be super embarrassing for Konata to need a video camera.
"What is it Konata…?" Kagami said grumpily as she crossed her arms over her chest, trying to look indifferent.
"I would like you to flash your bra for the camera!" Konata said with a happy little cheer as she held up her dad's camera to her eye to make sure the shot was going to be good. Konata didn't really care if the tsundere did it or not, what the otaku really wanted to see was if Kagami would actually do it or not.
Needless to say that statement set the younger girl's face of fire. "I can't do that you idiot!" Kagami shouted as she covered herself, almost like she knew that the camera could see past her clothes.
Konata didn't want to force the taller girl, but then again, maybe she needed some nudging?
"Then you will fail the pop test tomorrow." Konata said cheekily as she stuck her tongue out and made a humming noise, mainly to show Kagami that she was mocking her.
"What do you mean 'pop test'?" Kagami asked skeptically as she loosened up a little, but still kept her arms over her chest.
"I called Kuroi-sensei and got her all riled up and she promised a pop test tomorrow." Konata stated with a smile. Sometimes knowing how to tick off your teacher came in handy...
Kagami was utterly dumbfounded, Konata had actually put a well thought out plan into action against her and the older twin quickly knew she had no choice but to accept defeat. "F-f-fine are you ready?" Kagami asked as she grabbed the bottom edges of her shirt, turning an even darker shade of red.
"Yep, whenever you're ready Kagamin~." Konata said with a lecherous grin, she honestly didn't think that Kagami would do it! What an addition to her collection this would be…
Kagami quickly pulled up her shirt revealing her rather girly choice of undergarments, purple with red butterflies. After a few seconds Kagami quickly brought it back down and then gave Konata a death glare.
"If you dare put that online…" Kagami threatened with venom in her voice, but she knew it was futile. She was on Konata's turf now and she was defenseless.
"That was great Kagami; you really do have lovely taste!" Konata giggled as the tsundere simply groaned.
"Can we go inside now, please?" Kagami asked. Her only answer was Konata moving back into the house, allowing her to follow. Kagami was surprised. That wasn't as bad as she thought it would be…
"Kagami, dearest what would you like me to fix you for dinner?" Konata called up the stairs, voice extremely slick with cutesiness.
"Don't call me that and I don't care whatever you want to make!" Kagami shouted back, her tone was one of annoyance, but Kagami's face told a different story. The blush wasn't one of embarrassment, no it was a blush that was barely visible and it was one of pure delight.
Kagami wasn't a hundred percent sure why the tone Konata just used along with the words she uttered pleased her so much, but she was starting to get an idea...
Kagami pushed such thoughts out of her mind and began to focus on doing her homework, but after about an hour and a half Konata called up the stairs telling Kagami it was dinner time. Kagami finished what she was working on and walked down the stairs to find a massive dinner waiting for her.
At each spot, there was a small bowl of Sukiyaki to start; followed by a medium sized plate Okonomiyaki topped with sliced ginger and a sweet and sour sauce, in the middle of the table there was a large plate of Yakitori for them to share and for dessert was Kagami's favorite western style chocolate cake.
After observing the table she glanced over at Konata; the blunette's hair was messed up and she had a bit of sweat on her forehead, letting anyone who could see know that she had just been working over a hot stove in the kitchen. Her apron was dirty and had been used as a towel what looked to be several times, Kagami could only think how hot she looked like that and it wasn't because of the stove either... However, Kagami quickly shook off the feeling.
"Well let's eat!" Konata said breaking the silence as she walked over to her spot at the table and Kagami doing the same. The tsundere had been going over to the Izumi house long enough to be entitled to her own chair.
The two sat down and after a quick 'thanks for the food' began their meal.
"Wow Konata this is really, really good!" Kagami said blissfully as she shoveled more food into her mouth, forgetting all about being polite and dignified. It was one of her favorites and it was made by Konata; one of the best cooks Kagmai knew, although she didn't say that very often.
"I'm so happy she likes it!" Konata thought with blunette had yet to start eating, because of being so nervous about whether or not Kagami was going to like her cooking. Now that she knew that the tsundere was satisfied, she began to eat her share as well.
The rest of the meal was filled with mindless chit-chat, mostly because the girls were more focused on eating than anything else. Soon enough the food started to diminish and Kagami had regained her sense of, for lack of a better word, nobility.
"Hey Konata where is your dad and little cousin?" Kagami asked, taking another bite out of her Okonomiyaki.
"Both gone, it is just us tonight!" Konata cheered happily, before thinking of something she had wanted to ask the older twin earlier. "By the way Kagami, didn't you say your computer crashed? Can it be fixed?" Konata asked as she stood up to begin clearing the table, since she had pretty much finished.
"Yeah it did and no it was just too old I guess, probably won't get a new one anytime soon either." Kagami shrugged as she downed the rest of her juice so she could help Konata clean up.
After some arguing, Konata went to do the dishes saying Kagami might blow them up if she tried to help, much to the younger girl's revulsion. Once the blunette had finished the two headed up the stairs they had just made it to the top landing when Konata suddenly started pulling Kagami towards the bathroom, throwing the taller girl off balance and almost making both of them fall.
"Come on Kagamin~ take bath with me!" Konata said playfully as Kagami regained the twos balance, large grin on her face, only getting bigger the darker her friend's face became.
"No way am I going to do that!" Kagami protested as she tried to pull out of the tiny girl's grip, but Konata was a lot stronger then she looked and she didn't intend on letting Kagami get away so easily.
"But I get lonely when I go by myself." Konata whined as she snuggled up close to Kagami and said girl felt her resistance being drained from her.
"Then take a rubber duck or something I don't want to be with you!" Kagami shouted and the second those words left her mouth both girl's felt a strange pang of hurt deep in their hearts. Konata let go of the tsundere's arm and looked up into her face with a confused sort of sidelong glance.
"We have bathed together before right? So why would it be any different now?" Konata asked in a serious tone, her perverted grin and playful attitude had all but disappeared and it shocked Kagami how fast the girl could change back and forth.
"It would be just us two and I don't want you pulling any pranks on me." Kagami said as she closed her eyes and looked away from the tiny girl, opening one eye to sneak a peek at the older girl's face.
"I won't, I really just want some company…" Konata said sincerely and thanks to her facial expression Kagami just couldn't say no.
"Fine, but if you touch anywhere weird so help me!" Kagami threatened, but it did little good, because Konata was back to her normal self and that meant that she had already pounced the older twin and locked her into a tight hug.
"Yay, I get to take a bath with Kagamin~!" Konata cheered, Kagami just sighed as she gathered a few towels with her one free arm before heading into the bathroom, tinier girl still attached to her person.
"See it wasn't so bad." Konata cooed as she dried off her hair.
"Yeah, yeah whatever you say." Kagami replied, but she really did have fun. It had been a long time since she played in a bath like that...
Kagami's little flashback.
The two had disrobed and after some begging by Konata, Kagami allowed the smaller girl to wash her back. So of course Kagami had to return the favor and she had the same thought she had had the other day… Konata was soft…
However, there was something else that caught the tsundere's attention and that was the many little scars on Konata's body. From a distance they weren't much and hardly noticeable, but up close, Kagami could see them quite clearly and they looked almost like puncture wounds…
"Wash my hair too, okay Kagami?" Konata said with a unseen smile, loving all the care Kagami took with her body. Kagami snapped out of her thoughts at the sound of the otaku's voice and with a sigh complied with her request.
After about two minutes of Kagami washing Konata's hair the twin tailed girl had an evil idea... With no warning she splashed some cold water on the little otaku, she didn't understand why she would do something so childish, but she did and it felt good.
"Oh you want to go Kagamin~?" Konata said as she splashed the tsundere back, the two then engaged in battle until the water timer on the tub beeped.
"Alright Konata, get in the tub." Kagami laughingly commanded and, soon after Konata was in, she joined her friend. Kagami wasn't really surprised that Konata had bath toys, but what got her was after a little nudging she was playing with them with Konata… Completely forgetting about her previous discovery…
End of little flashback.
"Konata I'm pretty tired, where is the futon?" Kagami asked with a yawn when she couldn't find it in the place the Izumi's usually kept it.
"You don't need one; you can sleep with me tonight!" Konata said with a smile as she grabbed the tsundere's hand and began dragging her towards the bed and to her surprise Kagami put up little of a fight. In fact, there was no fight at all.
"Fine, just don't cuddle up next to me too much, okay?" Kagami said with another yawn as she crawled into the bed, quickly followed by the blunette, who obviously didn't listen because the first thing she did was cuddle right up next to the older twin.
With a sigh Kagami let the action slide, she wasn't in the mood to fight it and she had to admit the littler girl felt really warm. With that in mind Kagami fell asleep.
Konata's mind avoided sleep and was currently elsewhere. "A new computer costs around 150,000 yen, or at least one worthy of my Kagamin~." Konata thought sleepily as she had to force herself to stay awake.
"That's a lot of money, and with the other stuff I don't think I'll…" Konata cut herself short; she looked up at the cute sleeping face of her tsundere and felt her heart melt inside her chest.
"If it's for her I would do anything." Konata thought as her plans for the tsundere's birthday grew, soon she would have to start making a list, but for now all Konata wanted to do was just be near her Kagamin~.
