"Nee-chan?"

Kagome bit her lip, trying to move discreetly so she was slightly hidden behind Tamaki and Kyouya. She did not want Souta's few friends seeing her in a male uniform and judging him because of it.

"What are you doing here?" Souta asked, looking at the two males curiously, "Is something wrong?" He asked with concern, knowing she did not want to be seen with him despite his reassurances he did not care.

He did not need shallow friends if they could not accept his sister and her uniform choice anyway.

"No, nothing's wrong," Kagome smiled hesitantly, "I just had time on my hands, I guess." She shrugged.

"Okay," Souta stared at Tamaki and Kyouya and then gave Kagome a surprised look, "Are these two your friends?" He asked, a little taken back.

Tamaki smiled widely, but was immediately shut down by Kagome, "Nope," She said outright, watching as the blond instantly deflated, "I'm pretty sure they were just leaving."

It was not a warning, but a threat.

Tamaki looked as though he were about to say something, but he was cut off again, though by Kyouya this time around, "Yes, we were," He smiled tightly, "You are very good at soccer, Higurashi-kun."

Souta watched with a blink as the male with glasses dragged the blond away before looking back at his sister, "Are you sure?" He asked with a raised brow.

"They are just students who go to the high school division," Kagome huffed at Souta's prodding, "I want nothing to do with anyone who goes to Ouran. I just plan to focus on my grades."

"You looked like you were talking to them for a bit," Souta pointed out, "And that blonde guy..." He trailed off.

Kagome tightened her lips, even she did not want nothing to do with them, she did catch one thing Tamaki had said to her.

At least he tried to stop Kyouya from watching her little brother.

"Doesn't matter," She decided in the end as she certainly was not going to let off anyone who spied on Souta, "Are you done practise?"

"Yep," Souta glanced off into the distance, still able to see the two as the blond seemed to talk frantically to the glasses male, "Want to go home together finally?"

"I should probably head to the bus stop first." Kagome eyed the two teammates, who were now looking at them, probably wondering who Souta was talking and she resisted the urge to stoop down a bit.

"Listen, Nee-chan," Souta crossed his arms and gestured to the two behind him, "If they don't like you just because of your clothes, then I don't want to be friends with them," He said bluntly, "And I know there are people like that in your classes, but not every rich person is the same. You need friends."

"It's not like I don't have any," Kagome retorted with a frown, "We might go to different high schools, but I still have Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi. Hell, I even have Houjo-kun!"

"But you never go anywhere with them, even when they call you," Souta could see Kagome was getting antsy with the conversation, "You make friends easily. You have to start moving on."

A brief flash of devastation seemed to shine in Kagome's eyes for a moment before her face hardened, "Just go get changed and get your stuff," She turned around, "I'll wait for you at the school gates."

She made friends easily?!

Yes, students named Tamaki, Ritsu, and Haruhi had reached out to her, but she could not drag them down with her and her reputation and her depression.

Besides, she could not let go of what Kyouya had done.

"Nee-chan," Souta sighed, rubbing his hair before going to get changed, 'It's possible you won't ever see Inu-onii-san again. I know it's hard, but you have to let go.' And he knew once she did...

She would be surrounded by many friends once again.
