Over the next several days Fuuko didn't see Mikagami much. It seemed as if he was ignoring her, every time she saw him he seemed to be too busy to talk or he had to go for some reason. Sitting in class, her thoughts returned to that night. Why did he kiss me? She sighed as her eyes wanderd to her blank paper.Thoughts of Mikagami overwhelmed her, she didn't notice sensei standing next to her.

"eh-hem"

She jumped when she snapped out of her thoughts. Closing her eyes a moment, she looked at her sensei's red face. It was obvious that he was getting annoyed with her. She smiled slightly as she sunk into her chair.

"Kirisawa-san," He said crossing his arms and tapping his foot, "If you are not going to pay attention in my class, then why don't you leave?"

He pointed to the door and she knew that he was serious. I have too much on my mind to learn anything anyway. She thought with a sigh as she packed up her stuff and walked out into the hall. She wasn't in the happiest of moods as she stepped outside and sat under a nearby tree. His lips were so warm and soft.... She thought. Her mind wouldn't wander from the other night. She was so confused. She thought more about the kiss before she mentally slapped herself. What am I THINKING!? This is Mi-chan we're talking about!

"There has to be some reason as to why he would.....k-kiss me...." She turned red as she uttered the words, "I have to talk to him."

She had made up her mind and she knew that she had to confront him.

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Tokiya sighed as he left the school graounds. He hadn't seen Fuuko that day and he wasn't shure that he wanted to. If she braught up the other night he had no clue as to what he would say. No... It's better if I don't see her. He thought as he started down the street towards his apartment. A nagging thought in the back of his head wouldn't go away. You have feelings for her and you know it! He laughed and shook it off. That coulsn't be it. He silently scolded himself for even think of such things. He heard a snicker coming from behind him.

" I see we're confused about something." A voice in the ally said, " A girl maybe?"

That voice! He thought trying to figure out who it was who was talking to him. The man's voice sounded familar but he couldn't figure out where he had heard it before. The mysterious man chuckled as he stepped from the shadows. He was a handsom man with short black hair and suprisingly black eyes. I know him... He thought keeping a very stoic expression on his face. The man came up to Mikagami and ran his fingers through his hair. The action disgusted Mikagami but he wouldn't let this stranger see anysort of reaction from him.

"You never change." The man said, taking a step back from Mikagami, "What's wrong Mikagami Tokiya? Don't you remeber me?"

"I do not believe I know you." He said looking the stranger in the eye.

"Maybe this will refresh your memory." The man pulled off his shirt revealing a long scar running down his torso. "I fought you and lost to your ensui. I don't lose and I plan to get my revenge."

"If you want your revenge your welcom to coem here and get it." Mikagami said as he pulled out ensui. "Now I remeber you, Nakagawa Hirofumi."

Nakagawa laughed as he put his shirt back on. Mikagami was confused but didn't show it.Why is he laughing. He was getting annoyed with this man. If he wasn't such a threat Mikagami would turn around and leave but he knew not to turn his back on this enemy.

"You remeber me, good." He said turing around, "I will have my revenge but first I want to take what you hold most dear."

Now it was Mikagami's turn to laugh. "I'm sorry to inform you that I have nothing dear to me."

Nakagawa stopped and looked over his shoulder at the man with long silver hair behind him. "I wouldn't be so sure about that."

He resumed his walking and left Mikagami to ponder his words. What could he possibly mean? I hold nothing dear to my. As soon as that thought came to him an image of Fuuko came into his mind. He couldn't be thinking..... His eyes widened and a gasp escaped his lips. Fuuko... He took off running the rest of the way to his apartment. What am I going to do? He thought as he entered the solitude of his apartment. I have to make him believe that I have no feelings for her. I can't be seen anywhere around Fuuko. It's for her own good. He was pacing around his room not even realizing that he was attmitting to himself that he was in love with the purple haired monkey. He was startled out of his thoughts when the phone started to ring. Who could be calling me? He answered the phone with and unsure tone.

"Mi-chan?" A familiar voice came from the reciever. A sigh of relief escaped his lips as he slid down to the floor. At least she's safe.

"What do you want, monkey?" He said in an icy tone. He knew that he had to be cold to her. For her own protection.

"I-I just wanted..." She said in a wisper, "... to ask you about the other night..."

"What about it?"

"I want to know what happened?" She sounded really confused, he wanted to admit to himself and to her how he really felt but he remained silent. "Well?"

"I don't know." He said with a sigh, "Listen, I have to get back to studying. I'll talk to you..... later"

He didn't give her a chance to respond. He had hung up on her. Now you've doen it. I guess Nakagawa was right. But why her? Why now? He spent the rest of the night deep in thought. Trying to figure a way out of his current situation.

"I love you." He wispered before finally falling asleep from fatigue.
