Fatal words Ch. 1

Pointless! Why am I still here taking a stupid mile test when I should be helping Inuyasha and the others find the shards. Kagome stood in the next group to run the mile. As Kagome looked up from her shoes she saw her P.E teacher walking towards her. "Kagome, now this is hard for me to say but…..." Joy! Here it goes again! God like I don't hear this enough. "If you don't get a four minute mile then you will have to take this class in the summer."

"What!" Kagome had become furious. "But Mr. Pollens how in the world am I going to do that! IT"S IMPOSSIBLE!" the blood rushed to Kagome's head.

"I'm sorry Kagome. But there is nothing I can do" Mr. Pollens seemed to be upset that one of the school's best students was now failing just about every class. He headed back to the start line for the next group. As Kagome's group readied at the starting line her eyes began to water. The whistle blew and she sprinted across the field pass everyone. She had become a lot stronger from all the walking with Inuyasha. After a while Kagome looked back behind her, no one was even close to catching up with her. Hey maybe I can to this! I'm already close to the half mile marker. Kagome then looked down at her watch to see it had already been two and a half minutes and she had more than half a mile away. Her eyes began to burn from the disappointment of this. Tears began to stream down her face. She turned her face to wipe away the tears when a little red and silver blur dashed in the grove of trees that finished the half mile. Kagome couldn't help but smile at the thought of Inuyasha.

Inuyasha could smell the salt of Kagome's tears. He had come back to apologizes for his behavior and take Kagome back to his time. They once again had gotten into a fight and she fled back to her home like usual. Except this time Inuyasha couldn't even sleep since he was so worried that Kagome would never come back. He promised to himself that from then on he would treat Kagome with more respect. He had been standing in the tree grove listening to her conversation to that old man. He was infuriated about the fact that if she didn't run fast enough that she would be gone for the whole summer! There is no way that she will stay here for the summer so she can spend her time running for that son of a bitch. I wanted to spend it with her just me … and her…… What the hell why am I thinking like this? Why should I care what the bitch does with her summer? Wait I promised that I would be nice so………… how can I help? "Feh" He plopped himself down getting frustrated on how he could help her. It finally dawned on him that he could just give her a ride once she got to him. He looked out from behind a tree hoping not to be caught but he knew right away he had been spotted.

Thank God! Kagome praised her luck. She dead stopped where she had last seen Inuyasha. He slowly walked out making sure the rest of the class was far enough behind that he wouldn't be seen.

"Hey Inuyasha" Kagome's smile was radiating. "Why are you here?"

"I came to bring you back… and well……" Inuyasha couldn't take his eyes away from hers. The deep brown orbs were breath taking. She had only been gone for a couple of days but to him it felt like an eternity. "Um say how sorry I am for what happened earlier." Her smile turned from happy to warmth.

"Oh Inuyasha I'm sorry to I don't know why we fight all the time but..." Kagome was cut off by Inuyasha.

"Yeah, Yeah, just hop on my back and finish this mile k? Dumb wrench you almost forgot what you are doing here didn't you? Well? Hurry up!" Inuyasha regretted the last part; because Kagome hates the names he calls her. Remember you promised that you would be nicer to her. You don't want her to leave and never come back? Do you? He braced himself for a loud SIT but to his surprise he felt two legs wrap around him. He leaped from tree to tree using his half demonic powers to race against time. Trees were whizzing by them they all became a blur to Kagome's eyes. He stopped at least five yards from the finish line and waited for Kagome to hop off. Kagome was too overwhelmed with the sent of forest and ramen to realize that they had stopped. Inuyasha gave a courteous cough to snap Kagome out of it. She began to blush profusely when she hopped off of him.

She darted to the finish line hoping that it hadn't been to long. She passed the timer and politely waited for the girl to come out of shock. She had a double take from Kagome to the stopwatch.

"Well?" Kagome was holding her breath in anticipation.

"Um…3…3:30" the girls jaw was still hanging open. All she could get out was a wow! She hesitantly wrote down Kagome's score. Kagome let out a loud Yes! She jumped up and down out of pure joy.

At the end of class people were running to her asking how she ran so fast. Coaches were asking her to be in track. When she finally walked into her last class of the day she was extremely tired. She set her head down and slowly drifted off to sleep. She looked out the window when she saw Inuyasha staring back at her. She ran out to him and he began to tell her how he really feels about her when… she felt a tap on her shoulder.

"Kagome, Kagome!" Inuyasha began to fade away form her no matter how fast she ran towards him. Kagome finally woke up. There was a small pool of drool of her desk. She slowly wiped the rest of the spit off her cheek. "Kagome are you ok?" Kagome's history teacher seemed a little annoyed that someone fell asleep in her class.

"Oh… is class already over? I um……" Come on Kagome think of an excuse. "Been a little tired from being so sick all the time. I'm so sorry." Ha I can't believe she bought that. The teacher's expression softened.

"Oh honey that's ok but you should be going school ended about half an hour ago.

"What! Oh no sorry I gotta go." Kagome grabbed her bag and dashed out of school all the way to the shrine. O I'm so dead Inuyasha is gonna kill me!
