Don't Trust First Appearances

Chapter 3

Kagome woke up to her alarm clock. Kagome sat up on her bed in her female form. She pressed the button to turn of the alarm. It was 6:00 am, but Kagome had gotten use to it.

She was staying at Sesshomaru's house again. Her room in his house was the only place she was allowed to be herself as a girl. The room was completely private. There were no flaws that could happen that would reveal her true gender there. She stood in front of the mirror. She missed being able to go around as a girl.

She sighed. There was no point of thinking about it. She got dressed in some baggy clothes: a loose white top and a pair of grey jogging pants. It was a school day, but there were things to do before that.

She placed the male illusion back on herself before leaving her room and descending to the first floor. She headed to Sesshomaru's private dojo which was found on his property. She did her daily routine.

Her morning routine with Sesshomaru would be to run a lap of the estate (the very, very, very, large estate) followed by her fighting lessons which consist of practicing hand-to-hand combat and swordsmanship. She also practiced with her bow and arrow and spiritual powers on top. She often didn't have enough time, so she would have to practice more on her own.

After an hour and a half of practice, she ran into the mansion to prepare herself for school.

She dressed herself in the male uniform before calling a staff member over to drive her to school in a limo.

The first time Kagome rode in a limo she was excited to see what it was like. The more she rode in it, the more she longed to just walk much like she use too travel in the Feudal Era or even how she walked to her middle school. She began hating how she was being drove everywhere.

She finally arrived at Ouran Academy.

She thanked the driver before exiting the vehicle. She walked towards the large building that she called her school.

Kagome took his seat next to the window in 3-A. As usual for him, girls were watching him from afar. They had heard the news that their beloved Kagome joined the Host Club. They squealed in complete happiness and desire.

If anyone looked towards the sole entrance/exit door connected to 3-A then one would see several girls from other classes and grades peek in to look at Kagome.

Kagome could feel the several stares. He chose to ignore them. If she acknowledged them, they would be worse. She wished the end of the day would never come.

Suddenly two more figures entered the room causing the girls to get even more riled up: Takashi and Mitsukuni.

When the blond caught sight of Kagome, he ran towards him. Honey was standing next to Kagome's desk as Mori approached as well. "Kago-chan! Aren't you excited? Today is the day you officially become a host."

Takashi watched as Kagome groaned and slightly looked away from them. The two barely heard what he muttered under his breath. "I wished that you didn't remind me. I would be okay if school never ended."

The two blinked in confusion. Was he really that opposed to being a host? If he was, then he must really care for Haruhi.

Fortunately for the miko, the bell ranged and their teacher entered. Finally there was a distraction for what was to come.

Unfortunately the day passed by quickly for the miko. It was already last period. Last period that particular day was history. That class bored her further. After the Feudal Era, she took more interest in history along with mythology. She learned so much that she already knew the entire curriculum off heart.

It was nearing the end of class, so their teacher decided to hand back the test they had taken the day prior.

Emotions varied throughout the students. Some were relieved, some glared at their test paper, others were joyful, and others looked like they were about to die.

The end bell rang when he was finishing handing back the tests.

Mitsukuni climbed on his cousin's back. The short blond shoved his test in Takashi's face. The number 94 was written in red. "Look Takashi! I got 94%! How did you do?" He lifted Mori's test to his face. "Ah! You got 92%. We did so well. We should celebrate with cake." He grinned looking forward to eating sweets in the Host Club.

"Ah"

Both cousins then noticed Kagome put the test paper in her bag without even glancing at her mark.

"Kago-chan? Aren't you even going to look at your test?" Honey tilted his head cutely.

Kagome looked bored as she gathered all her things in her bag. "There is no point. I already know what grade I got ever since I wrote it."

The cousins looked horrified believing that she was implying that she failed. The test wasn't that hard was it?

"You couldn't have done that bad," said Mori monotone-less though his voice almost cracked.

Kagome glanced at her two classmates confused. "What? I didn't do bad," he stated. Glancing at the clock she realized that it was finally time for her demise. Time to be a host in the Ouran Host Club. She dreaded this time.

Kagome took a few steps to leave when her test paper fell out of her bag. She took notice and stopped to retrieve it. Before she could get it, Honey picked it up and glanced at it along with the taller Mori who could see. Their eyes widened in surprise. She didn't fail her test. She did better than either of them. Kagome had gotten 100%. Remembering taking the test clearly, he was the first one done writing it too.

Kagome took the test from his hand and shoved it back into her bag.

She started walking out of the room. Haninozuka and Morinozuka followed him.

"You got perfect Kago-chan."

"It's not really a that big of a deal," stated Kagome. "History is my best subject. I could probably tell you anything you wanted to know on the subject." A distant fond smile made its way on to his face. She continued to walk unlike the two who were previously by her side.

In truth, she was so knowledgeable in History that her grade was a perfect 100% in that particular subject.

Mitsukuni and Takashi froze in their steps. The smile that they saw- It wasn't like the others that he always wore. It contained many more feelings that radiated off of him. The two were speechless as they glanced at Kagome with a dusted blush.

Kagome arrived to the third music room. Kyoya told him where he was appointed to. It was at the area next to Haruhi. Kagome was happy because know she could keep an eye on her.

"Hello Haruhi-chan." The brunette turned to see Kagome. There were still a few minutes before they were going to open the club.

"A-ah..." Haruhi was still adjusting to the several knew things she knew about him including that he was the heir to two prestigious figures, and he attended the same school as her. "Hello Kagome-senpai." Haruhi didn't know what else to say except one thing. "Thanks for helping me pay off my debt."

Kagome smiled though there was some sadness hidden behind it. She was acting more distant almost like strangers. "It's no problem Haruhi-chan. I'm glad to be able to help you."

Haruhi felt something not settle well with her inside. She figured it was the gaze Kagome was giving her. Haruhi could see it. The hurt in his eyes. "Um... Is something wrong Kagome-senpai?"

Kagome felt that she was being stabbed again. Why was she being so formal with her? They were friends weren't they? The miko's eye lids lowered a bit as she stared at her second family's descendant and friend. "You're being distant with me. It saddens me. Are we not friends?"

Haruhi's eyes widened. It was her fault. "Ah of course we are Kagome-sen-"

Haruhi was cut off as Kagome brought her into a hug. She couldn't believe what was happening. Kagome was... embracing her. She heard him whisper in her ear. "Why do you call me senpai? Wasn't it always -kun before?"

The brunette's eyes widened. That was why she was sad. "Just my the honorific use I gave him, he's..." thought Fujioka, but she trailed off. "Sorry, Kagome-kun." Happiness replaced all sadness when her friend called her that.

The other hosts in the room watched the interaction. Tamaki and the twins were gapping. Their rage was growing. Steam could be scene coming off of Tamaki.

Kyoya pushed up his glasses. He found that the hosts' interactions were becoming even more interesting and amusing. He was taking notes. He looked off to the other side of the room to face the two seniors Honey and Mori.

The two were looking curiously at the scene. They blinked. To the girls in their class he would ignore. Kagome never looked or acted as he wanted to be part of the Host Club. Honey watched Kagome hug Haruhi. He felt a slight tug to his heart. He didn't understand why though.

Mori saw that Mitsukuni was slightly uncomfortable. He placed a hand on the blond's shoulder. Mitsukuni looked up at his cousin confused. Takashi said nothing to explain. Honey became even more confused.

Tamaki exploded. He ran to Haruhi and pulled her away from Kagome. "Don't touch her."

Kagome wasn't the one to object to the Host King. It was Haruhi. A dark aura surrounded her that scared Tamaki and forced him to leg go from fear. Haruhi was rarely this angry, and it scared him. Although Haruhi was trying not to show Kagome her anger. She was enjoying the moment she was having with Kagome until Tamaki decided to interrupt.

Kagome effectively calmed her down by placing a hand on her shoulder. Haruhi looked back at the miko. "It's fine Haruhi. The club is about to begin anyway."

"Ah yeah."

"However we still need a type for you," stated Kyoya.

"Ohohohohoho..." The flood began to rise to show a light brown hair girl with a large bow in her hair. "I'm here to help!" A chorus of Renge went around the room except Kagome who was not familiar with the female. "He can be the unattainable host... oops! It's opening time! Get into places."

Kagome thought of her as strange. Whatever... she was taking care of Haruhi, not everyone else.

The girls swarmed in. Several recommended Kagome. They had been waiting to spend time with him forever. There were so many customers for Kagome that they had too many and Kyoya had to turn them down and schedule them for another day.

Kagome internally groaned. She was not going to like the Club.

The girls began asking question after question. She was waiting for the eight girls surrounding her to settle down before answering any questions. Actually she didn't even want to answer questions. Kagome was bored and just wanted to go home. In fact she would rather battle a shark at the moment.

"So what do you think Kagome-kun/Kagome-ouji?" The girls were all look at him in anticipation for him to actually speak with them.

"My opinion?" Kagome watched the girls nod together. Hearts floated above their heads. "This place is boring. I would rather be spending my time else where." The other hosts froze in spot hearing this. What would his customers think?

The girls were quiet for a moment before... "Kya!" That just made them want to be around him more.

Kagome was starting to doubt her knowledge on females- wait! She just doubted herself on her gender. She needed a break. Being a host was making her weird. "Excuse me as I leave for a moment."

She took a moment to compose herself. "Just last through the day. Just last through the day," thought Kagome continuously. After composing herself, she made her way back to her guests.

The time went bye, and the Host Club was finally closed. Kagome sighed relieved.

"This is going to be a long year."

Haruhi saw how much Kagome hated the club. She felt bad that he was doing this on her behalf. "I'm sorry. You're doing this because of me. I didn't want to cause you trouble."

"Don't say that Haruhi-chan." Kagome looked at the younger brunette. "If you apologize, it will make me think all of this misery is for nothing." Kagome was thinking of her schedule for that week. "How about this weekend we go to an amusement park to break the tension and to have some fun. Would you like that?"

Haruhi would like to spend some more time alone with Kagome. It had been over a month since they last got together. "But isn't an amusement park with just the two of us... isn't that like- like a d-date," thought Haruhi. At the thought her began to redden. She smiled. "Sure! I'd love that."

Sorry for the wait. I have had writer's block, lazy, and I injured my wrist. I think it might be minorly sprained.

Anyway if you haven't been able to tell by the chapter or haven't notice the change of the main characters this story is now a Kagome/Mitsukuni fanfic.

I thought about it but I don't think I could display Mori that well when interacting with Kagome. Maybe when I finish some of my stories I will try to write this pairing but not in this story. although they will have some scenes together.

Please Review! ^-^ I use them as motivators
