Secrets and Poems

Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha- the lucky Rumiko Takahashi does.

Here's the summary-
Kagome hates her life and finds comfort in reading.. well.. poems. Inuyasha has a secret, but he won't tell anyone. And everybody has a secret that they won't tell. Read and find out about the people from Inochi High.

~Chapter 1- Mother and daughter~

Kagome could feel the bright rays of sunlight on her as she continued to sleep. She loved the morning as much as she loved her life. And to tell you the truth, her life wasn't near normal. She lived in a small, one floor house. This house was the only thing close to normal. Her mom was an alcoholic who never went out, her brother was mute and wouldn't make a peep even if it depended on his life, and her dad. to her, she had no dad. He never comes home. She had never seen him all her life. Her momr even told her, before she became an alcoholic, that her dad wasn't even there when both Souta and her were born. That's why she sometimes believed her mom to be a single parent. The only thing her dad had ever done fatherly was paying the bills. She didn't quite know what her dad does for a living, but she knew he was a big business man who went to meetings and slept with other women so he can make his wealthy life more interesting.
Kagome gave a lazy yawn and fell out of her bed, only for her head to meet her bedside table. Rubbing her head furiously, she went out into the hallway and went straight to the bathroom. By the time she got there, her brother ran into the bathroom and closed it behind him. Dammit! That little. ugh! Just because he's mute doesn't mean he can hog the bathroom all day long! Kagome thought. She started to pound on the door, only to hear her mom screaming at her.
"Dammit, Kagome, will you stop pounding on the door!" Her mother's door opened, and out came a distraught mom. She had wrinkles at the side of her eyes and her hair was a real mess. Some of the hair was pasted to the side of her face, probably from drooling when she was sleeping. She was wearing a nightgown that had a few holes on it and she was scratching herself.
"Kagome, why are you up so early? I'm trying to sleep and your up? What day is it?" her mom said in an irritable tone. She's does this so many times that it has become routine.
"I have to get to school and the little twerp is hogging the bathroom. That's why I'm so early," Kagome said. She said this all in a calm voice because she knew how violent her mom could get. The bathroom door opened and a white blur rushed past her. Finally, he's out! Kagome screamed in her head. Avoiding her mother's inquisition, she went into the bathroom and locked the door behind her. Staring into the vanity mirror hovering above the sink, she looked at herself in the mirror. She was trying to see her mom in her face, black hair, brown eyes, and wrinkle-free face. This may had been what her mom had looked like before alcohol, but not now. She sighed and wondered if she was going to look like her mother. Or become her.
