punkish furball – Hello, all! XD

Words to Ponder:

Thank you for reviewing: Sin of the Fallen, TriforceandSheikahArts, Silversun XD, Toreh, fallingyuki, inuluvskags1, and Kagome55678! X3

Still working on other updates, but, unfortunately, some come easier than others. Still, I'll keep trying until they're all just right!

Drabble 34: An Sweet Alyssum because Your Worth is Far Beyond Your Beauty

Part One

Kaoru grinned when the class was dismissed for lunch. Kagome typically ate her bento in the classroom but said she would join him in the dining hall. He stood and walked to Kagome's desk, pushing through the crowd of onlookers. He held his hand to her.

"Ready to go?"

She smiled and took it, holding on tightly.

"I am."

As the duo walked down the hall, they passed a group of boys from their class talking.

"So Kaoru-san was the one after Higurashi?"

"She's certainly pretty, but that's all."

"Indeed. Nothing else."

When Kagome stiffened, Kaoru quickened their pace, frowning.

Part Two

When Kagome and Kaoru reached the dining room, she let go of his hand.

"I'm going to grab us some seats."

"Are you sure? I won't be long."

Kagome smiled. "Go ahead. I'll be fine."

"If you're sure."

Just before Kaoru could leave, a heavy arm was slung over his shoulder.

"Kaoru!" Tamaki exclaimed, "I can't believe you kept your feelings for this gorgeous young lady hidden from us."

At his side, Kyoya snorted. "Yes, a very attractive young lady."

Before Kagome could snap, Kaoru interjected.

"As you both know, like the alyssum, Kagome's beauty isn't her only attractive attribute."
