A/N: Hehe, this is my first fanfic, so if it's crappy don't blame it on me, blame it on the amateur writer that had a sudden inspiration to write this!

Chapter 1

"Damn finals." Kagome cursed under her breath as she pounded her desk with a fist.

She knew her mother would kill her if she didn't get a good score. She had spent hours upon hours sitting at her desk trying to fill her brain with information, hoping she'd actually remember at least a fourth of it before actually taking the test.

As if she had anything else to do.

All her friends were also cooped up in their rooms, cramming facts and whatnot. But on the optimistic side, summer vacation was only 2 weeks away.

Her whole little clique of close friends already planned what they were going to do for most of the summer. So far, everyone agreed to where and when they would go to what.

All except one person.

'Inuyasha.' she sighed thinking of this particularly depressing thought. It annoyed her how she always put his girlfriend before anything else. Which brought her to a more disgustingly bitter thought.

"Kikyou." She said out loud with an ice cold tone. She'd hated her ever since she'd seen her. The biggest prep in the school. Far better looking then any other girl, and not the least bit modest either. Her "flavor of the month" always had to wait on her and be by her side. Kagome had been genuinely disappointed (as well as her whole group) when she learned Inuyasha would be going out with that uber bitch.

She suddenly noticed the time and quickly snapped out of her daydream and got back to studying. Knowing that she deducted some time from her precious sleep and that she would be terribly exhausted the next morning.

All because, she once again had to think about Inuyasha.

Kagome quickly rushed to school, she had to arrive somewhat early to chat a little with her friends. With a backpack, and a bottle of cappuccino in her hand, she bounded off into her school.

"Kagome-san!" A voice shouted, Kagome instinctively followed knowing it was one of her friends beckoning her.

"Sango-san! I'm so exhausted!" Kagome complained.

"And so are the rest of us," replied Miroku for Sango, "so did you stay up till the wee hours of the morning like the rest of us?"

"Hai." Kagome half-sighed

As usual, Eri, Arimi, and Yuka bugged her about Hojou, and Miroku tried to make a move on Sango (Which resulted to a rather large pink lump on his head).

And as usual, unfortunately, Inuyasha wasn't there.

A/N I'm getting annoyed in talking in third person so from now until whenever its gonna be in Kagome's point of view.

"KAGOMMEE!!" screamed Eri and Co. irritably.

"Do you see him?" Yuka said.

"Who?" I replied.

Arimi giggled, "He's coming your way!!"

"WHO?" I said putting it in a more demanding tone.

"Go Kagome!" Eri said in a slight hushed voice, "We'll leave you alone with him to.hmm.to talk!"

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? YOU'VE BEEN BLABBING FOR THE PAST 5 MINUTES AND DOES IT SEEM LIKE I CARE??" I shouted, as I was particularly annoyed.

Just as I was about to take a breath for my second round of "lecturing" someone tapped me on the shoulder.

"Uh.Kagome-san?"

"WHAT!?!?!?!" I hollered, and suddenly I noticed who I was addressing, "Oh my gosh!! Sorry Hojou-kun, I didn't know it was you! I.um.I have to go.sorry, maybe we can talk next time?"

"Erm.sure, I guess" He quietly walked away, but I could see the sense of disappointment on his visage.

At lunch Eri and Co. mobbed me down and started asking me all sorts of questions that I chose to ignore, seeing from previous experience they were all full of crap.

Miroku and Sango offered their help on the subject but with no avail.

"But really why won't you go out with him?" Sango questioned.

"I don't know. It's just complicated because, well I don't see him as more then a friend." I said naively

"And, might I add, that I have deducted you have a crush on a certain someone" Miroku stated, which earned him a cold glare from me.

I slumped down on the table where we sat. I can't really say "that's not true!" to Miroku, but I can't say that it is true either. Seeing Inuyasha with Kikyou.just makes me.angry? Jealous? No.I can't possibly be jealous of her...

But my thoughts were interrupted by a sudden outburst.

"They're making out again?!" cried Miroku, just loud enough for both Sango and Kagome to hear.

I turned to where Miroku was gazing at but suddenly realized my mistake. My blood boiled, I tried to suppress my voice, but I couldn't.

"GODS INUYASHA! WAY TO GO FOR PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION!" I hollered, but then quickly covered my mouth.

Too late, half the cafeteria turned my way, causing me to blush and sink lower into the table. Miroku and Sango just stood there gaping at my sudden outburst.

"Ahem.well at least they stopped." Miroku said trying to say something positive.

I ran to the bathroom before Eri and Co. could reach me. Locking myself in, I softly started to cry. It was just so embarrassing! I didn't even know what made me say that. But just to watch them made me want to kill both of them. Inuyasha for sinking so low.Kikyou.for well being Kikyou.

The bathroom door opened, I lifted my legs up and curled myself up so that if they were looking for me they wouldn't find me.

"Kagome? I know you're in here so don't try to hide." I knew it was Sango-san, slightly disappointed.

But then again whom did I expect? I couldn't have expected "him" to break away from Kikyou and look for me in the girl's bathroom did I? But I knew that I did and there was no use denying myself.

I heard a light tapping sound on the door of the stall I was in.

"Are you in here?" Sango said quietly.

"H-hai" I replied in a little croaked voice.

I unlocked the door and came out, noticing that my eyes were red from crying. Apparently Sango predicted I would do so and brought some tissues.

"You know that was pretty brave, and maybe years from now we'll all look back and laugh at it." She said as she tried to comfort me.

"And who does "we'll" include?" I said out loud, "certainly not Inuyasha don't you think? He'll probably hate me for saying that."

"I don't think so. You guys have been friends since forever," she said coolly, "but do you really care about him.I mean more then a friend?"

"I don't know! Okay.fine, I do!" Seeing my first answer wasn't good enough.

"Well you can call me and give me the details because we're gonna be late for class. Lets go."

I followed her out quietly and felt safe just staying behind her if further humiliation would find me.

But too late.cuz Inuyasha was right in front of us.
