Seventeen year old Kagome Higurashi nodded off in her Philosophy class. Yes, she was in her mid teens, taking a college course. Her friend Sango nudged her.

"Kags!" she whispered harshly.

Kagome's head snapped up. She rubbed her eyes quickly and picked up her pen just as her teacher came over. He glanced at her untidy scrawling all over her notebook and shook his head. He was used to her horrible handwriting. She watched as her made his way to the next student, and heard someone snort in laughter behind her. She rolled her eyes and looked behind her. The sight brought a slight blush across her cheeks. Hojo Akitoki was laughing at her. She stuck her tongue out at him as he wiped away a fake tear. Sango looked over at the scene and smiled. She knew Kagome was crazy over Hojo. He was just too much of a joker to notice.

Hojo smiled at her and winked. Kagome blushed a little and, yes she dared, blew a kiss. Not wanting to keep looking at him to see his reaction, she turned around. Hojo was taken aback. Was Kagome flirting with him? Perhaps if he had more than two brain cells when it came to love, he would be able to figure it out. Finally, the teacher made his way to Hojo's desk.

"Ah, Hojo, I have received your essay, and have graded it." Mr. Washington said.

He returned Hojo's essay and walked away. There was a big "95" at the top of the page. For Hojo was a genius in the classroom, but an idiot on the streets. Kagome began writing her paragraph for class, when a note plopped on her notebook. She opened it, and recognized the neat handwriting of her best friend, Koga. After school today we're going to my house to play my new Naruto game. You in? She looked over at Koga, who smirked at her, then turned around back in his seat. Depends she wrote, who's we? She folded the note back and whispered his name. He turned around, just as she tossed the note to him. She then returned to her work. Before her pen could even touch the paper, the note landed in her lap. It read, Me, myself and I. Who else? Kagome stifled her laughter and gave him the tumbs up. From behind her, Hojo stared at her, puzzled.

What seemed like an hour later, last period bell rang, and the hallway was packed with high school kids. Kagome and Sango walked out of the building into the sunlight and sighed.

"So you're riding the bus with me today?" Sango asked her.

"No…" Kagome said slowly. "Me and Koga are headed out to his place."

Sango raised a brow. "To do what?" she said, as Kagome hit her playfully.

"To play video games! What else, stupid?!" she shrieked.

"I dunno. You tell me!" Sango said.

Kagome was thinking of comeback, when someone beeped the horn of their car. They looked over and saw the sweetest, sexiest red Ferrari humming soflty on the curb in front of their school. Behind the wheel was Inuyasha Takahashi, age 21. His silver hair was pulled back into a ponytail and he had on sunglasses.

"Who's that?" Sango asked, awed.

"A friend.." Kagome mumbled, walking up to his car.

Inuyasha looked over at Kagome who was standing in front of the passenger door. He titled his shades and peered at her over the lens.

"What are YOU doing here?" she demanded.

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. He didn't come all the way to here school in Osaka just to hear her mouth.

"Get in the car, Kagome."

"Why should I?"

"Get in."

"No."

Inuyasha sighed heavily. "Look. I don't have time for this. I didn't comt to argue. Just get in the car, and I'll explain."

Kagome eyed him suspiciously. She squinted and peered at him. He gazed at her honestly.

"Fine." She said, jumping into the car.

"Thank you!" Inuyasha said, throwing up his hands. Kagome giggled and called out to Sango.

"I'll see you later, Sango!"

Sango waved, still confused. "Hey, but what about…." She was never able to finish her sentence because he drove off.

"Hey, Sango" Koga said, behind her. "Where's Kagome?"

Sango simply pointed at the speeding red Ferrari already a block away. Koga's eyes narrowed.

"Inuyasha…"
