"Rumors"
Kagome had survived two full weeks with this new student, Inu-yasha... and she couldn't believe what was happening! There were already rumors flying everywhere about him. The rumor going around now was that he got kicked out his last school for killing a student or two.
"That's just stupid!" Kagome said taking her seat next to Megumi in English class.
"What is?" Megumi replied taking out her homework for the teacher to collect.
"I mean, all these stupid rumors going around about the new student. It hasn't even been a month yet and everyone hates him!"
"Well, don't you hate him too? He was a jerk to you on the first day of his transfer"
"But... this is just... stupid what everyone's saying about him and it's like he doesn't even care."
Kagome lowered her eyes to her papers sloppily laid out on her desk.
"Do you-?" Megumi asked.
"Hmm? Do I what?"
"Care... I mean. Do you care about this Inu-yasha person? Cuz, you sure are talking about him an awful lot, for someone who told you to leave them alone."
"Like hell, I care about him!" Kagome yelled realizing that she was sticking up for Inu-yasha.
"Ok, geez, calm down. I was just kiddin. Sit down already" Megumi was timid when Kagome got to her screaming point soshe quickly tried to change the subject.
"I am not in a good mood, so take your seats now and let's get started" The teacher said as she entered the classroom.
It was gym class now. They were doing the long jump. Ya know when you run really fast and jump over the large pit of sand as far as you can. Kagome hated this. Not only was she not really athletic, she wasn't very flexible either. She looked around at all the other students shivering from being outside in the cold. Fall was coming, so it was in the 60's and their gym uniforms weren't exactly as warm as a winter coat and gloves.
"Who will be the first to show us how it's done?" Mr. Tanaka, the gym teacher said.
Everyone replied in sneezes and chattering teeth. He sighed and looked down at his clip board.
"Iien...ayasha, could you please give us a demonstration on how it is done, please?" He said roughly and cleared his throat as an excuse as why he had pronounced the name so horribly.
Kagome looked around to see anyone walk from behind. He didn't mean Inu-yasha, did he? That name Mr. Tanaka stuttered doesn't even come close to the real name he was trying to say. Kagome imagined Inu-yasha walking from behind with an annoyed look on his face for the teacher's horrible pronunciation. But when Inu-yasha did come from behind the crowd he still had the same expression as when he first arrived at their school.
"Ok, let's see what you can do!" The teacher said.
Inu-yasha stepped to the starting line and continued to run at an incredibly fast pace and then he rose from the ground slowly. It almost looked as if he were flying! He went at least over 12 meters. Much farther than anyone had gone in their class before. He landed on the ground with no struggle, a perfect landing with perfect balance. All the students and Mr. Tanaka cheered loudly.
"Yes!! That was great! Really great!! I couldn't even go that far"
Kagome simply stared at the long haired student. He was so amazing. His looks,his gestures (when he did make them), his eyes... just everything about him. Just by looking at him Kagome felt this surge to just figure him out. His past, his life, now and if all these rumors were true. Everyone ignored Inu-yasha as he made his way through the crowd and walked away, without saying a word to anyone. She looked around to see if there was anyone still watching Inu-yasha. No one was, but her. In fact there were already girls making rumors out of his performance already.
"You know when that guy was jumping in the air; he had that scary look on his face? I bet that's the same terrifying look he had when he killed those people at his last school!" The girl she was talking to giggled and nodded. Kagome felt herself squeeze her fists tightly.
"Ok, who's next? Amy Takashi? You're up!" The teacher said looking down at his clip board.
"How can you say that!? You don't even know him!" Kagome shouted.
The two girls looked frightened at Kagome and backed away. Kagome lowered her head so that her bangs were covering her eyes and then she ran off into the same direction as Inu-yasha went.
"Freak... " One of the girls mumbled.
Kagome could see Inu-yasha leaning against the back of the school by himself.
"Hey!" She called out to him.
He made no movements to show that he heard her.
"Excuse me... " She said.
He slowly looked up from the ground, making eye contact with her.
"Can I ask you something? Please? I really need to know something... "
"What?" He answered rudely.
Kagome felt pressure to ask now, but she couldn't back down, now that she had finally got him to answer her.
"Um... are all those rumors true? About you... and killing those people at your last school? There just rumors, right?" Kagome was proud of herself for being able to actually ask him one full question. There was some stuttering in between, but it was still a major victory for her.
"Hmph!" He said under his breath and turned his head.
'Oh no,' she thought. 'He looked super pissed now. She wished she had never ran back here to talk to him in the first place.'
"Why?" He finally spoke up.
"Huh? Why what?"
"Why are you asking me this question?" He turned his head back in front of hers. Kagome felt herself blush.
"I really need to know... you would never... kill anyone would you?" She asked shyly.
"Does it matter? Why do you care anyways?"
"Why don't you? I mean... don't you care that there are rumors always going on about you?"
"Why would I? I know none of them are true and you still haven't told me why you care either"
Kagome didn't have the guts to look him in the eyes anymore. With each question she asked him, it seemed he became more and more annoyed and impatient.
"I...um" She swallowed.
"Why do you keep on insisting on talking to me? I thought that you would have given up by the way I treated you last time we spoke. What is it exactly that you want from me, anyways?"
He stopped leaning against the wall and stood up straight. This put Kagome in a very difficult position. Not only was he now staring down at her but he was at least 4 inches taller than her. She squeezed her fists and spoke.
"I just want to know more about... you I guess... I" Kagome could hear him chuckle in the middle of her speaking.
"You want to know more about me? Give me a break. You're friends probably told you to come over here and try to get something from me. So what is it?"
Kagome's mouth was completely dry. She couldn't find any words to say to that! What could she say? I just wanted to help you? No way! She couldn't say something like that. Especially not to him. He took a few steps closer to her and placed his hand on her cheek. Kagome felt herself jump at his cold touch.
"What is it you want from me? Money? Sex? If that's what you want... I can give it to you"
"What!?" Kagome said, still trying to get used to talking, and having his hand on her face at the same time.
"If sex is what you want, I'll do whatever. You actually don't have too bad of a shape. My father would have loved to have a woman like you" He used his left hand and laid it on her thigh and closed his face to hers. There was only an inch distance.
"Is this what you want? I'll do it. I'll do whatever you want. Anything that'll make you leave me alone"
"N... no. I don't want this...I just wanted to... " Kagome said in a childish tone.
He removed both his hands from her body gave her a scary look.
"Then leave me the hell alone" He said and walked away.
Kagome put her hand on her cheek where his cold hand was before. She felt a need to call back out to him. But... she just couldn't... There was something about him that she just couldn't rest until she figured him out.
Kagome could hear thunder strike and small rain drops fall from the sky on her forehead. She watched Inu-yasha as he faded into the fog.
