CHAPTER 1

Hello My name is Higurashi Kagome and there are a few things you need to know. A)I am 16 years old and I go to Ookami High founded by Ookami Koga's family. B)I have 4 best friends Muzukashii Inuyasha, Neko Sango, Murasaki Miroku, and Chiisai Shippo which all attend the same school I do. Inuyasha is a half demon most of the humans and demons in our school hate him. There is a large rift in the school the demons stay with demons and humans with humans that's why everyone hates our group because we have 3 humans 1 demon and a half demon. There only a few exceptions to the rule like koga he is the most popular demon in our school and he is hopelessly in love with me and everyone looks the other way. Too bad I don't like him. C) My cousin just moved here and has started at our school she is a bit of a loner and never really hangs out with anyone she is more of the kind to say hi to everyone then go about her own business. Her name is Higurashi Kikyou my fathers brothers daughter.

On this particular day im running late for school and Im still in bed. The damn alarm didn't go off. Suddenly I can't breath I jolt out of my dream land and sit up as fast as I can just to be face to face with Inuyasha. Are faces only about a inch from each other. Of corse I blushed...that doesn't mean anything for god sakes he is a boy and im a girl its normal... right? I know what your thinking and your wrong I don't like him like that! "I hate it when you do that!" I yell breaking the moment. Not that there was a 'Moment'. There was no moment... just drop it!

"It's the only way to wake you" he said referring to the fact I sleep like a rock and the only noise that wakes me is my alarm so he pinched my nose so I couldn't breath. "Do you know what time it is?" umm... No I really didn't but I looked over at my clock 7:00 oh no!

"Darn it! not again!" I say slipping out of bed forgetting that I was only in my underwear and ran to the bathroom. It wasn't until I was in there that I noticed what I had done. The blush returned to my face...still means nothing. I put the clothes I had put on the sink the night before on as fast as I could and brushed my teeth. Meanwhile the darn blush wouldn't leave. Why should I care! So he saw me in my undies. Its not like he cared. I don't care! Shut up Im not in denial. I grabbed my hair brush and trotted back into my room to see Inuyasha still sitting on my bed. Is that a blush? No...He must just be hot, After all it is Hot outside today. "Ready?"

"Yeah... we are going to miss 1st hour again today I don't want to fail math." he comments. Neither do I hell math is hard enough without missing several classes. But wait he doesn't need to wait for me.

"If your that worried about failing why wait for me every morning?" I saw him look at me in a funny way and then look at the ground. What is his problem that was a simple question no need to get all shy. Guys are so weird. "Whatever we have gotta run." I said grabbing his hand and running down the stairs. Bad Idea I forgot my dad had the day off work and he hated Inuyasha we should have went out the window. My dad stood from his chair in the living room and walked up to us. I forgot I was holding Inuyasha's hand apparently so had Inuyasha because neither of us let go. My dad grabbed my arm rather harshly and tossed me to the floor.

"GET OUT!!" I herd my father yell at Inuyasha. I looked up from my spot on the floor. Inuyasha was looking right at me his ears pinned to his head and one of the sadist looks I had ever seen him posses. "DIDN'T YOU HEAR ME MUT!" My dad took a swing at him and Inuyasha stumbled backwards on impact. Inuyasha looked at me and knew I didn't want him to fight my father so Inuyasha gave him a glare then one more sad look at me and he was gone Or at least that what I thought. I was trying to get to my feet but my father grabbed and yanked me up before I could get there my self. It hurt a lot and I whimpered. "Did you sleep with that filthy demon?" my father said in one of his I am about to kill you voices.

"No!" I yelled realizing my mistake I lowered my voice. "Dad please im late for school." One of his large hands connected with the side of my head and I yelled in pain and stumbled backward gripping my head as tears leaked from my eyes.

"LIAR!" he yelled as I saw his feet approaching me I was still bent over and that's all I could see. I closed my eyes and waited for the pain. But instead I herd a yell and a loud crash. I looked up and saw Inuyasha standing in front of me and may father laying on a now broken coffee table. Before I could say or do anything Inuyasha had whipped around and grabbed me bridal stile and ran out the door. I cried into his chest as I held on for dear life.
