The bucket of dirty mop water was kicked over, ruining all her hard work and leaving her ready to rip and claw into the banes of her high school existence.
“You should be more careful, Higurashi.” Tsubaki sneered.
Kagome adjusted her oversized glasses, bobbing her head up and down. “O-of course.”
Tsubaki snorted derisively, her group of followers tossing dirty looks before continuing their way out of the academy.
Grinding her teeth, Kagome resisted the urge to snap the mop in half and show them just how careful she could be. Fuming mad, she glanced at the mess and groaned. Cleaning duty sucked, especially when Tsubaki and her mindless posse were bent on making her life hell.
Taking deep, calming breaths because going after a group of conniving bitches would get her into untold amounts of trouble, Kagome resolved herself to the task at hand. The quicker she mopped up the mess, the sooner she’d get out of here. So like a scarily efficient maid, she had the hallway floors spotless in no time.
Glancing at her watch, she cursed the time and grabbed her bag, booking it towards the front doors. Dad’s gonna hand me my ass on a platter for being late…again.
The second she burst through the doors however, Kagome realized she was on a collision course with two guys and shit…
She jumped into the air, used one of their shoulders as a stepping stone and back flipped over them, landing easily a few feet away. Whew…crash avoided.
“What the—”
“Higurashi.”
Kagome froze. Red alert! Red alert! Crash not avoided! I repeat, crash not avoided! She wrenched herself from her stupor, dared to take a step forward, and very soon discovered it was a grave mistake.
He grabbed the back of her uniform and lifting, turned her around to dangle in front of him. Her large glasses scooted down her nose and for once, her bright blue eyes were unobstructed.
“Y-yes, Sesshoumaru-senpai?” she squeaked.
He arched a silver brow, drawing his face closer. “What are you hiding?”
“Some damn good acrobatics.” Inuyasha grinned.
“Nothing!” Kagome insisted, stomping down the urge to kick him in the shin so she could get away.
“Lies do not become you, Higurashi.” He scrutinized her a moment longer before releasing his hold, gold eyes indecipherable. “I expect your presence at the dojo on Friday.”
What?
“And do not be late.”
