Disclaimer: Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi.

Description: high school story about Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku and Sango getting paired with the wrong partners after arriving late to the assignment discussion, better than it sounds, trust me, if you like Inuyasha high school stories, please r&r.

Characters:

Inuyasha: has a crush on Kagome, but too shy to tell her because they are good friends and has a history with Kikyo- average guy who likes to have fun with his friends.

Kagome: starting to have feelings for Inuyasha, but is also shy about it and she likes to hang out with her boys-average girl, nice, loyal.

Miroku: friend of Inuyasha and Kagome's, but secretly likes Sango despite his reputation as a player- flirty one who has a sweet side deep down.

Shippo: Part of the Inuyasha friend group, has a red bushy ponytail and is sometimes weird- funny one of the group and can be annoying sometimes.

Sango: outsider of the Inuyasha friend group, except Kagome who she's friends with, but has her own friend circle- smart and organized.

Koga: Friend of Sango, goes after Kagome mostly- a little flirty, handsome, athletic type.

Kagura: also friend of Sango and Koga's, in love with Sesshoumaru.

Kikyo: jealous of any girl who comes near Inuyasha, kind of popular and hangs out with other people other than the main ones.

Sesshoumaru: Inuyasha's cooler older brother.

Chapter 1: This should be a Disaster

The bell rang, signaling that school was over. Happy chatter sounded from all the students.

The teacher cleared his throat, "Now before you all leave, I wanted to let you all know that tomorrow we will be starting an assignment where you will be paired up to take on roles as husbands and wives to see how it feels to be out in the real world, for all of you who get here on time tomorrow will get to pick your partners, but those who are late, I will assign the partners," the teacher warned, giving them all a very serious expression at the end of his announcement.

The guys made miserable noises and the girls chatted away about who they wanted to be partnered up with. As everyone exited the classroom, Kagome met up with Sango who was walking by herself.

"Hey, so who do you want to be paired up with, even though I kind of already know," Kagome said slyly.

Sango glared a little at her friend, "Um, I don't know, I haven't really thought about it," she lied.

Kagome chuckled, "Yeah, right, come on I know you have the hots for my friend, if you want I can just ask him for you."

Sango jumped almost dropping her books, "NO," she blurted out a little too loudly.

Kagome raised her eyebrows at her reaction, "O…k," she said simply.

Trying to get off the subject of her crush, Sango said, "What about you? You spend everyday with him and yet you can't ever tell him how you feel."

Kagome shot her head in her friend's direction, knowing she was talking about Inuyasha, "How do you know…" she started, proving Sango's suspicions.

"Oh come on, it so obvious," Sango started, but got a look from Kagome, "well maybe not obvious, but friends know these kinds of things, I don't see why you just don't tell him already."

"Right back at you," Kagome dodged.

Sango glared at her again and was about to reply to that when Inuyasha, Miroku and Shippo came up to greet Kagome on her other side. 'Great, the three stooges are here,' thought Sango, trying to ignore the fact that she had a secret crush on one of them. She wasn't really friends with any of them and every time she got around Miroku, she felt weak in the knees, stupid hormones.

"Well, um, I'm going to go, my friends are probably waiting on me," Sango told Kagome before hurrying off in the opposite direction.

Kagome laughed a little, she knew she probably was getting nervous around Miroku aside the fact she had nothing in common with any of her friends.

Inuyasha huffed, "What a weird girl," talking about Sango.

"Hey, be nice, she's a sweet person and my friend," said Kagome.

"Yeah," Miroku put it, but after receiving questioning looks from Inuyasha and Shippo Miroku added, "I mean what a weirdo."

Shippo laughed, "You so have a crush on her."

Miroku punched Shippo in the arm, "I do not, I'm a man among women, WO..M..EN, not woman."

"Can you believe this stupid assignment," Inuyasha said grumpily, "Be glad when it's over."

Kagome looked down at her feet as she walked the hallway in thought, 'Maybe he wouldn't want to be her partner, should I ask? He probably wouldn't care, he thinks it's so stupid anyway, probably just pick Kikyo since we're good friends.'

It was an issue that Kagome all confused, she had these feelings for him and yet she didn't want to ruin their friendship they had. There was the problem of Kikyo too; she feared that he had leftover feelings for her since their breakup.

"Kagome," she heard Miroku's voice. She shook her head from her thoughts and looked up at him, "What?"

"I asked if you wanted to go to the ice cream parlor with us," Miroku asked again.

"Oh, sure," she answered following the guys close behind as they laughed at how stupid the assignment would be.

'Boys,' thought Kagome rolling her eyes.

Sango had met up with her friends and they agreed to walk home with her, she had a lot of homework to do anyway.

Koga snorted, "Why do we have to do this dumb project anyway?"

"Because Koga," Sango replied, "It gets us prepared for what's to come in the future, I think it would be fun."

Koga half rolled his eyes, "I guess," then he got all sexy like, "so ladies," he put his arms around Sango and Kagura, "which one of you will be the lucky wife who gets me," he asked half teasing.

"Please," Sango started, "you get the pleasure of getting one of us, I don't know, I'd say a long shot," Sango looked over at Kagura who nodded, both of them laughed.

Koga shrugged, "Yeah, I know, well you going to ask that goof ball that hangs around my Kagome?" he asked Sango.

Sango blushed a little and tried covering up, "Are you kidding, that sleaze ball who only goes after women, no way, no offense Koga."

Koga chuckled and stretched, "None taken; besides my woman will come to me eventually."

Sango sighed, "Would you stop calling Kagome your woman, don't degrade her like that, she's a nice person."

Koga ignored her, "If it wasn't for that dumb Inuyasha, she would be drooling over me right now."

The girls shook their heads, "Koga," Kagura said, "You know maybe she would like you if you were more sensitive."

"Yeah," Sango spoke up, "maybe you could buy her flowers or take her to a movie, she would like that."

It was hard for Sango to choose sides, she always thought it wrong to choose over friends, though Koga was her friend and Inuyasha not so much, she was thinking about what Kagome wanted, she wasn't sure she liked Koga that way, but she felt bad for Koga at the same time, because deep down under all that flirty macho exterior, she felt he really loved her.

Finally they had made it to Sango's house, "Well bye guys, I'll call you later," she told them before entering the white two story house.

The next day found four individuals rushing around the hallways, trying to make their way to last class which would determine their partners.

The warning bell rang making getting there even more nerve raking. Finally as they all rushed to the same door, Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku and Sango all collided with each other.

Picking themselves up and apologizing to one another, Kagome opened the door just in time to hear the late bell sound.

The four screwed their faces up in misery; the four of them was late.

The teacher looked in their direction as they all slinked in, "Well well well, Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku and…Sango, you're never late Sango."

"I know," Sango frowned in self loathing, the one day she was late.

"Well, you know what I said yesterday, let's see everyone here has already been partnered up," the teacher informed.

Among the students sat Kikyo glaring up at the small group that arrived late, she wanted to be paired up with Inuyasha and hopefully get back with him after proving she still loved him. She looked over to her partner instead who was a geeky guy that she couldn't stand.

Since Kagome wasn't there like he had hoped, Koga was now paired with Kagura. Kagura didn't mind much since the guy she liked, Sesshoumaru, wasn't even in the same grade.

"How about," the teacher started staring at the four, "Inuyasha, you and Sango are husband and wife and Miroku and Kagome, there, now please take your seats and don't be late again."

'Oh great I'm with the weirdo girl,' thought Inuyasha, glumly taking his seat.

Sango shook her head, 'Not him, it wasn't supposed to be him.'

'Oh man,' thought Kagome, 'not Miroku, he's just my friend, this will be too weird.'

Miroku also shook his head as he went to his seat, 'Well,' he laughed to himself, 'could be worse, could have got Inuyasha.'

He knew that wouldn't have happened, but he tried to make the bad situation humorous.
