He stared at her facebook page, like he had every day since she first disappeared. Still nothing. She hadn't logged in for almost three months. She'd been gone for all this time and there was still nothing. Summer was over. "You better get your ass in gear if you want a ride to school." His older sister Kagura called interrupting his wallowing. He sat there for a minute longer before closing out of hr profile and shutting down his laptop.

"You're such an asshole Naraku. You aren't even listening to me." Kagura muttered to him as she pulled up to his school. He'd only been grunting in response to her tirade about her bitchy coworker or something for the past fifteen minutes. "What?" he mumbled back into reality. He was looking out the window for that thin leggy raven-haired sex goddess. Maybe she would show up today? With it being the first day back and everything. "Get the fuck out of my car." She sounded seriously annoyed. He wondered what he'd done to deserve that. Nothing. That's right, he always did nothing. "Alright. Have a wonderful day." He grumbled bitterly as she sped off, leaving him standing there in front of hell itself. Why were the women in his life so temperamental? Even mom with that whole affair with that yoga instructor. He only shrugged at it. While Kagura sobbed for hours on end about there parents squashed marriage. "Hey." A girls voice lauded him. And he realized he'd been standing there pondering that. He gave her a slight nod. Only because he couldn't remember her name. the only reason he wasn't bothered by her presence was because she sort of looked like Kagome. But at the same time she sort of didn't look like her at all. "So how was your summer?" she asked that painfully mundane question. There was absolutely no mistaking her for Kagome. " Terrible." He admitted honestly. His pessimism made her cringe slightly. "Maybe if you're good I'll let you walk me home." She said as if she were doing him a favor. "No thanks. My sisters picking me up." He muttered before walking away from her. " Asshole." He heard her mutter before he got too far away. He smirked. That word was getting thrown around a lot lately to describe his newfound disposition on life. If being heartbroken made him an asshole, then so be it.

Why was everyone so excited about being seniors? It was the end. This was the end. From now on it was all just planning for the rest of their lives. Even today, at the seniors welcome back assembly. College this and future that. Fuck it. So much for welcome back. "Fuck this." Koga's words mirrored his thoughts. He nodded, still distracted as his eyes scanned the auditorium. He was looking for her. "Figured shed be back by now." Koga mumbled candidly. Bitter mostly because he had been burned by her too. "What?" Naraku pretended not to know who he was referring to. The girl of both their dreams. "Nothing." He responded dryly, falling back into that uncomfortable silence that seemed to settle between them a lot lately. Maybe it was because at one point they had been fucking the same girl. So much for best friends too. They weren't so inseparable anymore.

He probably drank more than he should of. "You're not taking all of those. There is no way." Inuyasha challenged him pompously as the row of seven straight tequila shots sat out in front of him. Just a typical school night. "Watch me." He remarked snidely, waggling his eyebrows angelically. He ran his hand through his mop of dark hair and threw a couple back. Then another one and another one. Until all the liquid poison was gone. He regretted that sorely as he was now lying in his own vomit listening to the sounds of a creaky mattress. Which was only amplified by his intense headache. His bedside alarm clock read 5:00 AM. How the fuck did he get home anyway? He heard loud snoring then too, and sat up only to find Koga sleeping soundly in his bed. Under the blankets and all. He yanked the pillow out from beneath his head, but that still didn't wake him. There was a bottle filled with a liquid of some sort on his dresser. He dumped it on him, grinning in slight amusement as he did so. "What the fuck?" Koga shouted shooting up from the bed. Naraku chuckled surprisingly. "What the fuck was that?" he grumbled pacing around the room looking for a towel or at least something clean to dry himself off with. And things settled down after that. "You brought me home." Naraku mentioned as a sort of thank you. Koga nodded not bothering to note the fact that he'd been mumbling slurred things about Kagome or that he found interesting photos of her on his laptop. He had that ammunition at least. "You were trashed I'm pretty sure you fucked a freshman." Koga laughed at his best friends idiocy. Naraku groaned. "Shit. I think I remember that." He sounded despondent. "I think that's illegal." Koga piped up again. "Fuck you." He shot back playfully. It was banter like this that made him believe things were starting to get back to normal. "No. But seriously man, I think your mom gets more action then both of us." he joked back. They were quite for a minute listening to the faint creaky mattress. Naraku grimaced and fell back onto his bed. " I think that one is the mailman." He mumbled before burrowing his head into his pillow. And then before he knew it 6:00 rolled around and it was time for him to get his shit together and ready for school.

"Your sister is fucking hot. When are you gonna give me the hookup?" Koga lauded as they walked up to school together. Another sign that things were good again. "You're funny as shit. Did you know that?" He grumbled glowering at him. Koga shrugged. "So no then? It's cool I'd rather have your mom anyway." He called after Naraku as he walked away only throwing him an easy middle finger over his shoulder. "What man? Your mom is sexy. I love experienced women." He continued to taunt him. It was all welcomed though. They had to make up for lost time. "I see you two fucked and made up." Miroku remarked snidely as he approached them in the cafeteria. He gave them each a fist pound. "Yeah. Right after I fucked your girlfriend." Koga retorted. Miroku rolled his eyes, "I heard you got monumentally fucked up last night." He began sinisterly pressing his palms together. He found other peoples misfortunes highly entertaining. Naraku grunted and downed the rest of his red bull. "Holy fuck! Naraku!" Inuyasha shouted rushing across the cafeteria toward them, before he could even open his mouth to tell Miroku the story of last night. "Oh my fucking god. You know that girl you fucked. Her older brother is looking for you." He informed them. Naraku shrugged. Honestly he could careless if some girls older brother wanted to kick his ass. "Who's her brother?" Koga asked carefully noticing the frantic look on their friends face. He was out of breath too. "Where is that little shit Naraku?" they heard a voice shout from the opposite side of the cafeteria. It was Bankotsu. Resident badass. He had been in juvy about five times and he had a fucking cobra tattooed on his face. Naraku stood up fearlessly. "What the fuck are you doing?" Koga questioned dubiously. Sure Naraku could hold his own in a fist fight but this guy was insane. Literally. Bankotsu spotted him and sauntered forward. Naraku did the same meeting him halfway. He didn't even bother with an intro. His face puckered in preparation for the blow to the face, and then he was on the floor blacking out. "Stay the fuck away from my little sister asshole." He heard the voice grumble before things went completely dark.
