Kagome grumbled as she cleaned the classroom. That bastard Harima was also on cleaning duty and totally ditched. Oh he was going to get it. She let out a dark chuckle.

"Maybe I could Purify his ass... yeah yeah. I'll just imagine him as a demon and turn him into ash!" she let out another chuckle.

"Hey, is she ok?" Makoto asked from the doorway. She leaned against the door frame, watching the priestess clean as a dark aura surrounded her.

"She seems angry." Akira stated.

"Yeah. Harima was also on cleaning duty and he ditched." Eri found her anger quite amusing. Kagome was probably the only person in the school that would yell at the delinquent and put him in his place. "Hey Kagome! After you're finished wanna go get some pastries?"

Kagome looked up. "Huh? Yeah sure! I'm almost done here anyways."

"Alright, we'll wait outside for you," Makoto said.

"Ok!"

The three girls left leaving Kagome alone once more. She put her cleaning supplies away and left the classroom. On her way down, she glanced out the window and froze. Outside was none other than Harima and that gorilla from that one time. Her anger rose once more as she made her way outside to where they were at.

"Another letter of challenge huh? You don't know when to quit do you Tennouji" Harima said.

"I won't quit until I've broken you into a thousand bloody pieces." He told Harima.

"Not before I do." Kagome growled stepping in the middle of them, her back to Tennouji. She crossed her arms over her chest and glared at Harima. "Where the hell were you?"

"Oh come on!" He yelled at her. "I have better things to do than cleaning duty!"

"Getting into fights is not an excuse Harima!" Kagome snapped.

Tennouji watched Kagome and Harima bicker. This was his chance, he'd just use the girl and have Harima admit defeat! He smirked and approached Kagome from behind.

"I'm just gonna-"

"You touch me and I will pin your ass to tree with several arrows!" Kagome glared at him. If looks could kill, this guy would be nothing but ash drifting through the air. Her glare would make Sesshomaru proud and Naraku cower in fear!

"You're all talk," he grabbed her arm.

"Hey!" Harima protested. "This is between me and you! Don't bring her into this!"

Kagome inhaled ready to scream at him until he put a hand over her mouth. "Harima, admit defeat or else." he pulled a switch blade from his pocket and put it to Kagomes throat.

"Seriously? This again." Kagome stayed where she was. She wasn't scared, just very annoyed.

Harima growled. This guy was crazy! Using a girl was a cowards way. There was no way he was backing down.

Kagome sighed and closed her eyes.

~Flashback~

"Now Kagome. Ye can use your powers for other things as well. Let's say you get kidnapped, by a human. Ye have to will your powers to purify him." Kaeda explained to Kagome.

"But won't that kill the human?" Kagome asked.

"No. Since he is human, it'll only burn him. It doesn't happen automatically, like ye do with demons. Ye have to concentrate."

~End Flashback~

"Alright. I can do this." She searched for her Miko ki and allowed it to envelope her body in a soft pink color. She pictured Tennouji in her mind and reminded herself he was a human, not a demon. She opened her eyes and glanced at Tennouji who wasn't paying no attention to her.

Harima couldn't believe his eyes. Was he just seeing things or was Kagome actually glowing pink?

Slowly, Kagomes willed her energy to the arm holding her.

"Ow! What the hell!?" He quickly released Kagome, pushing her away. His clothing had melted and all that was left was a really bad burn on his arm.

Harima caught Kagome before she landed on the ground.

"Y-you're crazy!" Tennouji cradled his burnt arm.

"That looks bad.. maybe you should go see a doctor." Kagome smirked. 

"As long as you're in love with Tenma, me and my sidekick won't show any mercy!" Harima yelled. "See ya around." He turned around and began walking away, Kagome following him. 

"Side...kick..?" she blinked.

"Hold on. You gotta be freakin kidding me, you're in love with Tenma?" Harima stopped.

"Tenma..." he turned back around landed a punch on Tennouji. "That's miss Tsukamoto to you!"

"You... wasting your time."

"Get real. How often do I have to beat you?"

"I'm not talking about the fighting Romeo. Tenma, I mean, miss Tsukamoto told me she is in love with someone else."

"What did you say!" Harima picked him up by the collar of his shirt. "If you're lying to me-"

"I'm telling the truth lover boy." Harima lowered him.

"No... it can't be." He stepped back a few paces. "I never thought of something like this!"

"Let's go lover boy," Kagome grabbed Harima by the ear and dragged him away, him complaining the entire time.

It would appear, Harima isn't the school's badass... In fact, It was Kagome Higurashi. Harima was just a cover up and he had to learn that the hard way.

The next day, Kagome watched Harima try and figure out who Tenma was in love with. After school that day, Kagome found herself being 'kidnapped'.

"Hey let me go-mmph," Kagome started to yell but her kidnapper slapped a hand over her mouth.

"It's just me." he removed his hand when she relaxed.

"You didn't have to kidnap me ya know!" she sighed. "What's up?"

"I know who Tenma is in love with. I finally figured it out!" he exclaimed. You think he'd be a little upset...

"Oh yeah? Who?" she crossed her arms.

"Tenma is in love with... me!" He grinned. "Finally all my dreams are coming true!" Kagome opened her mouth to say something, but quickly closed it. "I'm going to buy her some yellow flowers! Before I do.." Harima took her phone from her hand, typed something, and gave it back. "I'll let you know later!"

She looked at the screen:

'1 contact added'
'Message sent'

"Message?" She opened it the message.
'Good luck!' it read.
She smiled. He just wished himself good luck. "Idiot."

An hour or so later, Kagome got a phone call. "Huh?" she looked at the screen. Harimas name flashed across it. With a sigh she answered. "Hello?"

"Ah Kagome. It's Itoko."

"Oh. Hey what's up?"

"Being the only one in his contacts, other than myself of course, I need you to do me a favor." She said.

"Sure what is it?"

"I need you swing buy here, the hospital, and come grab Harimas prescription. He got hit by a truck."

"Idiot. Sure. I'll be there in a few." Kagome ended the line and made her way to the hospital. You'd think Kagome would be a little worried about Harima getting hit by a truck, but she wasn't. He was an idiot and by the tone of Itoko's voice, he was okay.

Kagome arrived at the hospital with a bottle of pills in hand. She had encountered Tenma on the way up and were heading to the same room.

"Come in." Itoko answered after Tenma knocked.

"Hey Harima, I hope you're feeling better." Tenma smiled at him.

He perked up instantly, a small blush across his cheeks. "Oh baby! I'm luckyy!" she approached the bedside. "Oh. Hello there Ms. Itoko. How are you? So did you come to visit Harima too?"

"Well, I'm fond of dumb animals." She answered.

"Are you getting along alright Harima?" She asked.

"Fine, I'm fine." he said quickly.

"Look even Kagome came to see you!" she smiled at Kagome.

"Oh. Here's your pills," she tossed him the bottle. "Itoko asked me to pick them up."

"Excuse me, Tenma. Those flowers you brought are beautiful. Why don't you put them in some water," she suggested.

"Sure!" she took the vase that Itoko held out to her. When she left the room, Harima let out a breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding. "Good, you're breathing again. I thought you'd forgotten how."

"What can I say? I'm pathetic." he sighed.

"Well then," she stood from her seat. "I'm off."

"Two's a company, threes a crowd and four is too much. You coming Kagome? See you later Kenji." Itoko grabbed her bag.

"S-sure."

"I'll drive you home."

"No. Wait don't!" Harima begged, He threw his arms on her shoulder. "Please stay Itoko! I beg you! I just can't handle this alone!"

She swatted his arms off her. "Hey! Be a man!"

"Itoko!" he whined.

"Now then. What's the proper way to address your guardian?"

"Ms. Itoko! Ms. Itoko please don't go!"

"That wasn't so hard, was it? Don't worry I'll help you. Here take these," she held out her hand.

"What's this?"

"A remote intercom. I made it myself." she said.

"Inter...com?" he questioned.

"Go ahead, put it on. I'll tell you what to say to Tenma and all you have to do is repeat it after me. There's nothing to worry about. It's a good thing they allow cellphones in this hospital. I guess you really are lucky after all." she explained.

"I'm not so sure. I've got a bad feeling about this." he said.

"Ok, you're on your own,"

"She's good..." Kagome thought as she watched the two.

"Alright give me the damn thing." he grumbled taking them from her.

"As you wish oh spineless one." She then told him where to put the intercom.

"It's like you're a spy. Pretty cool huh?" she turned to leave. "Give it your best shot. Bye." Kagome wished him good luck and followed after Itoko.

Kagome was holding in her giggling as she listened in on the conversation. Harima was just to awkward. Itoko and her were in the waiting downstairs. Kagome burst into a fit of giggles when Itoko made up an excuse and left him on his own.

"Come on. Let's go back." Itoko gathered her things and headed back upstairs. Harima seemed a little distracted and Tenma left, so Kagome sat in the chair that was provided and Itoko leaned against the wall. Harima didn't notice that Tenma had left, who knew he could actually think. 

Kagome stiffened when Harima wrapped his arms around her. "I love you." he whispered. Her face erupted like fireworks on July Fourth.

"Huh," he pulled back and came face to face with a beat red Kagome.

Itoko punched him in the head. "I'm afraid the party you were trying to reach left the room while you were still thinking. She said, 'Take care'," Itoko bent down and grabbed her hair, "Look! I'm Tenma Tsukamoto! Are you in love with me?" she teased.

"Just shut up!" he cried.

Kagome sat in her spot, still beat red. She knew those words were meant for Tenma, but it was still embarrassing to hear them. 

"Look, you even embarrassed poor Kagome!" Ikoto laughed.

"Hey Sor-" "I've gotta go! See you later!" Kagome jumped up and quickly left the hospital room, heart pounding in her chest, and cherry red face.
