"He's nicer than I thought he'd be," Ayumi commented.

"He's pretty hot. No wonder Kagome-chan dumped Hojo. Though that hair is totally bleached," snorted Eri.

"And he's got to be wearing contacts. Even so, he's really cute." Yuka grinned. "Wish there was more than one of him."

Ayumi looked over with an innocent smile. "Didn't Kagome say once that he's got a brother?"
