Sweet Dreams

"So as you can see, if we take the right side of the triangle and multiply it by the nearest...." The math teacher's voice droned on, making it exceptionally difficult for Kagome Higurashi to keep up the appearance of being absorbed in the wonderful world of mathematics. Truth be told, math was not her favourite subject, never was, never will be. Although it didn't help that her teacher's voice was so boring that all he had to do was open his mouth and Kagome would start dozing off.

Giving up all hope of ever understanding what he was talking about Kagome shifted her gaze to the widow, her favourite position in the classroom. It overlooked her school's front yard. The perfectly cut lawn, benches covered in shade from the huge trees that outline the school's perimeter, the sun who's warmth she could feel through the glass, were all a routine sighting for Kagome, although she didn't mind in the least. The sight was always comforting and allowed her to let her mind wander and not really think about anything. It was a daily ritual that Kagome came to look forward to. So when she noticed something different from her usual image she mentally shook herself and looked again. Someone was standing in the middle of the yard. She squinted and looked closely. Well he's a guy. Kagome thought to herself. Shouldn't he be in class? I don't recognize him though. Wonder what he is doing here...Although that trail of though quickly evaporated when she noticed his hair. Silver hair? Wow. Wait a minute...what are those on the top of his head? Kagome leaned a little closer to window to take a better look.

"Ears?!" She cried out, sending her chair flying backwards taking herself with it.

"Is there a problem Kagome?" Her math teacher asked her taking a break from drawing complicated math problems on the chalkboard.

"Ummm...well you see...I was..." Kagome mumbled, cheeks flaming. She stole another glance out the window while picking up her chair. The boy was gone. Where did he go? Looking up at her teacher she said, "I'm sorry. I was leaning back on my chair when I lost my balance and as you heard, fell." Satisfied with her tale she allowed her self to actually look like she was sorry. "Please. Continue with the lesson. I find triangles fascinating." Kagome said praying that they were still on that topic.

Someone from above had heard her because the teacher seemed to accept her story. But then before turning back to the chalkboard he had one more question to ask her. "Kagome, I'm sure I'm not the only one who was wondering this. What was the significance of the word "ears"?" He asked with a taunting smile upon his face.

Oh man. How am I going to explain this one? Kagome thought frantically. But before she had the time to answer the bell that signaled the end of the day chimed. Quickly she grabbed her books and ran to the door. She walked swiftly down the halls hoping to be one of the first people to get to the lockers surrounding her own. The sooner she got out of the building, the sooner she could look around for that strange guy. Unfortunately her friend, Ash, foiled her plan.

"Hey, Kagome! Wait up!" Ash yelled from down the hall. Sighing Kagome gave up her race to the lockers and waited for her friend. What seemed like hours later Ash finally caught up to Kagome and smiled. "Wow. You are so lucky. I almost thought you'd get busted that time. You know how Mr. Smith hates students falling asleep in his class." Ash told her panting slightly from walking quickly. Kagome smiled. Yup. That's Ash. Always in top shape. Then the thought struck her.

"Sleeping? But I wasn't..." Kagome muttered more to herself than Ash while running a hand through her dark hair in confusion. But then that must mean...

"Well...Maybe you hadn't quite fallen asleep yet but you were definitely dozing off." Ash said quickly, worried about Kagome's mystified expression.

"...he was just a dream..." Kagome whispered not knowing she spoke out loud until she noticed the look on her friend's face.

Ash looked like she had just won a million dollars. With a huge, teasing grin she asked Kagome, "Who was just a dream?" Ash could barely restrain herself from jumping around. Kagome rarely talked about guys and if she did it was usually about their lack of intelligence. (Not very good blackmail material for best friends.) So since the topic came up Ash was going to take full advantage of it.

"Wow. Do you know what? I've never noticed how bad the paint job on the wall is before. Look! See what I mean?" Kagome said a little too quickly, gazing intently at the wall.

"Oh no you don't!" Ash said grabbing Kagome by the shoulders and staring her straight in the eyes. "Who did you dream about Kagome?"

Knowing there was no escape Kagome stared back into her friend's eye and said "I don't know." There. I said it. Let's let her have some fun with that.

Ash could tell that Kagome was telling the truth so she didn't press her for more details. Releasing Kagome she smiled hopefully, "Well when you find out who he is you have to tell me, ok?" Then she stopped and stared at the walls, "You know what? You were right about the paint job."

Waving goodbye to Ash Kagome started on her way home, still a little confused about their conversation. Kagome was sure she had not fallen asleep in class. (She had done that enough to know what it felt like.) I guess I might fallen asleep...that would explain the guy with the ears on the top of his head. But I was so certain it was real...Kagome was so absorbed in her thoughts that she wasn't paying attention to her surroundings. Next thing she knew she was sitting on the sidewalk and someone was holding out their hand to help her up. Looking up from the ground she found herself gazing into golden eyes. After a few seconds she realized she was staring and tore her eyes away and took the offered hand.

"I'm sorry. I guess I wasn't looking were I was going. Thank you." Kagome said while brushing her pants off. Giving up on her pants she looked up at her helper. It's him! Dog-Boy. Kagome was surprised with that thought. She had no idea where that name had come from. But looking again he actually did kind of remind her of a dog with the ears and all. She mentally shrugged. That was a good enough name for now.

"Feh," Was his only reply. Before Kagome had time to ask him what he was doing at her school or even his name he started walking away.

"Wait!" Kagome called out but too late, he was lost in the crowd. "Well wasn't he Mister Polite. Maybe I should be glad I never learnt his name."

"I wonder if Inuyasha was successful?" a brown haired girl wondered out loud.

"We've been waiting for so long, Sango. I wouldn't get my hopes up." A male voice answered her.

Startled, Sango jumped, "Miroku! How many times do I have to tell you not to sneak up on me like that?" She lectured him halfheartedly. Leaning back on the tree she was sitting under she sighed and closed her eyes. "I know. I won't get my hopes up but wouldn't it be nice if he found-MIROKU!" In a split second Miroku was lying on the ground with a red handprint on the side of his face. "Pervert! I can't even close my eyes for a second around you can I?"

"Am I interrupting something?" A third voice asked.

"Oh. Hello Inuyasha." Miroku said jumping up. "Sango was just expressing her undying love for me."

"You wish, Pervert!" Sango said glaring at Miroku. Stretching, she stood up and walked over to Inuyasha. "How did it go?"

"I found her." Inuyasha told them grinning at their expressions. They were stunned but it only took them few seconds to shake it off before they started bombarding him with questions. Her? How? Where did you find her? How old is she? Does she know yet? Deciding this would take awhile he walked over to where Sango used to be sitting and sat down, motioning for the others to do the same.

Once they were all seated Miroku asked, "How old is she? What does she look like?"

Sensing that Miroku would not rest until he found out this vital information Inuyasha chose to get the answer out of the way. "Stupid lecher! She looks to be around 15, maybe a bit older. She has black hair and brown eyes. Normal height. Is there anything else you want to know about her? Maybe her blood type? " It was her eyes that had Inuyasha intrigued. They looked to hold too much knowledge for a normal 15 year old. They seemed to see more than what was to be seen. Shaking off the thought he looked up to see Miroku smiling evilly.

"Got a pretty good look at her, eh?" Miroku grinned but when he noticed Inuyasha was skillfully ignoring him he continued to talk, "Oh well. If she looks anything like my dear Sango then she must be beautiful indeed..."

"Does she know yet?" Sango asked quickly interrupting Miroku's fantasy.

Inuyasha turned serious, "No. Not yet. We are going to have to wait a little longer. It could be tomorrow or it could be three years but the point is we have found her. Now we have to watch over her to make sure nothing happens to her in her world until she discovers who she really is."
