Last Time:

Ejineko's curiosity grew when he noticed that Sesshoumaru was looking over at Naeomi. 'What the-?!'

*******

Chapter Three: Sesshie's got cramps?!

*******

Naeomi sat alone, picking at her lunch and trying to sort through the confusing thoughts running rampant in her brain. 'What's going on here? Sesshoumaru accused me of… I don't even remember what the word means anymore, I haven't heard it in so long… of being a miko…'

Taking a deep breath, she tried to run through the exact events of that morning.

*** Flashback *** (A/N: I have always wanted to do that!)

"Naeomi, Sesshoumaru, would you come see me for a moment?" Ejineko stopped them as they walked on opposite sides of the hall past his office.

Once they were inside, their teacher all but shoved a drink into their hands. Not wanting to be rude, they accepted it without complaint. "Please, sit down."

"I have noticed that there seems to be some tension between you two. Being a demon as well, you can guess how the hostility coming from you is distracting to say the least." He smiled lightly. "I would like to ask you politely to keep your personal issues away from my classroom."

Naeomi and Sesshoumaru had taken several sips by now. It didn't taste or feel like anything more than water. "Sure. I don't have a problem with that, as long as he doesn't bother me." Naeomi huffed.

"Well… actually… I was going to ask the both of you to work together on the next big project that's coming up. Something of a test, you could say. How about it?" Ejineko looked at them expectantly. Naeomi had to think on this a moment. Sesshoumaru was unbearable, but not even she could deny he was intelligent. 'Well… if it was only for a week or two… who could it hurt?'

"Sure," she finally grumbled. "Why the hell not?"

*******

A few moments later, Naeomi was hit with those wonderful things we like to call cramps. Bad.

At the same time, Sesshoumaru doubled over in pain as well. "Wha- what's going on?!" Naeomi had experienced worse, so she stood upright and looked over at the taiyoukai.

"Something wrong, Sesshoumaru?"

"You- you wench! You've done this to me! I'll get you back, miko!" Startled, their eyes met.

'Did he just call me a-'

'Did I just say she was a-'

"Miko?!" they exclaimed at once.

*** End Flashback ***

"I don't care what he called me!" Naeomi slammed her fist onto the table. "He can say whatever he wants to, it doesn't matter to me!"

'That's a lie,' another voice appeared in her head. 'You didn't like it when he called you miko.'

"What in the world is going on here?!" Naeomi covered her head with her arms.

*******

Sesshoumaru watched the confused girl with disgust. "What an idiot." And yet, he felt slightly guilty, as if he had done that to her.

'I'll find out what's going on here.' He took one last look at Naeomi as he turned away. 'For Naeomi if no one else…'

*******

A small way away, Naeomi felt oddly comforted, as if someone was trying to make her feel better.

*******

Ejineko watched the Inu demons with growing amusement. 'Everything is working out just as I'd hoped.'

*******

A/N: Oh, yeah, I feel pretty good about myself right now. Please, review! Flame me if you must… let me know you have at least read this and thought it was horrible… *goes off to cry*
