15 He's Being Stubborn

"Hey, Kitten-kun. Calm down, you're scaring the little bunny here." Shogo said smirking as his golden eyes stared down at her.

"Calm down already," Shugo repeated to him his playful tone growing serious as he tightened his grip on Hotsuma's shoulder. Snapping out of his dark place Hotsuma gazed down at Fuzuki's worried eyes before letting out a sigh. Staring up once again to meet the platinum blonde's eyes the two stared at one another in silence before the platinum boy walked off into the opposite side of the cafeteria followed by a group of followers.

"Sorry, Fuzu-chan." Hotsuma apologized releasing a small sigh as he reached down ruffling Fuzuki's hair as he offered her a small forced smile. A tense air surrounded the group before Shugo broke the silence as he placed his tray on the table taking a seat beside Fuzuki. Leaning forward to rest his chin on his hand the boy offered Fuzuki a wide mischief smile that reminded Fuzuki of a cat or fox.

"So, I've heard so much about you but this is the first time I get to see the famous Hime."Shugo grinned before reaching out taking Fuzuki's hand in his. Her face grew hot as he leaned down placing a small kiss on the back of her hand.

"It's nice to meet you, hime-sama," Shugo said gazing up at her with a smile lips still touching her hand. Blus.h.i.+ng Fuzuki could only stare down at his hypnotizing golden eyes, shuttering to herself embarra.s.sed. Before the moment could continue a hand slammed down on the top of the white-haired boy's head.

"I think that's enough." Hotsuma smiled a small tight smile with a dark look in his eyes as he stared down at white-haired snake.

"Don't worry young kitty, you're the only one for me," Shugo said backing away as he gave Shugo a fox-like smile with a wink receiving a wide-eyed embarra.s.sed look from the red-head.

"Both of you are so annoying," Toko spoke out with a ticked off look on her face.

"Oh hey, Toko-Toko chan. How are you this fine morning?" Shugo asked her turning his full attention to her as he leaned his chin on his hand. Sighing Hotsuma with small effort moved Shugo away from his spot beside Fuzuki before pulling up a chair beside her.

"Fine before you showed up," Toko responded with a smirk. Placing a hand on his chest Shugo did a fake pained expression before chuckling.

"How cruel, I can't stay away from neither of my favorite twins." Shugo grinned wrapping an arm around Hotsuma's shoulders.

"ugh," Toko did a wanting to puke gesture before Shugo turned his attention to Fuzuki who was playing her food with a small silent smile as she stared at the three.

" So how do you like the school so far," Shugo asked switching to his playful fox look to a more gentle smile still holding an amount of playfulness in his eyes.

"It's a great school. I like it so far, the teachers and students seem nice." Fuzuki smiled.

"I heard you liked reading. This academy has a rather large selection of books, two floors tall actually." Shugo commented watching as the young girl's eyes lit up at his words.

"Really?!" Fuzuki yelled out excitedly before blus.h.i.+ng at the volume of her tone.

"Yeah, we can even go together to check it out." Shugo flirted causally before a hand reach out pulling at his ear.

"Hey, you fox. How about we all go check it out together." Hotsuma said with a frown glaring at his friend who turned to him with a playful grin.

"Don't worry my little kitty. I could never want anyone else more than I want you." Shugo flirted with a smirk causing Hotsuma to blush growing silent while Fuzuki gazed at the two with wide eyes and Toko just frowned with a yawn completely used to it.

"Are you two..." Fuzuki traced off with a blush as she had recalled Toko telling her Hotsuma didn't care about genders. Wide eyes Hotsuma quickly caught on to her words pus.h.i.+ng away the white-haired boy who was clinging on to him.

"No!"

"He's being stubborn."

Both boys answered at the same time causing the red-haired boy to glare at the white-haired boy for making the situation sound more complicated.

"Um, I think I'll go to the restroom," Fuzuki told them with a small smile standing up.

"Want me to come with?" Toko asked her ignoring the two struggling boys in front of her as she smiled brightly at Fuzuki.

"I'll be fine," Fuzuki a.s.sured her with a smile sending an unsure gaze at the two boys before walking away.

Letting out a sigh in relief Fuzuki stepped out of the nurse's office after having taken her medication. Because of school regulations, Fuzuki's aunt had to send in Fuzuki's medication to the nurse for her to be able to take them. The nurse was to keep it a low profile as she received a small brief summary of Fuzuki's needs before her enrollment.

Walking down the hall Fuzuki's attention was caught by the sigh of the library on the top of some double doors. Before she knew it she was walking down the rows of books breathing in the familiar scent of books. She felt calm around all the books, reaching up to grab a book from the top shelve her eyes widen as a large number of books came cras.h.i.+ng down on her. As she closed her eyes for the impact a pair of arms reached out pulling her out of the way. Shocked her eyes opened before letting out a gasp as she met a familiar pair of green eyes stared down at her own.
