If they apologize, what do you do?
Glancing at Kouga as he laughed loudly after his friend Hiten, a boy in his second year, who had his hair black pulled back and had red eyes (who seemed very popular with the girls), I smiled glade that we were friends. He was so kind…
Suddenly feeling uncomfortable, I looked to my left sipping out of my carton of milk threw the straw. Bankotsu was sitting a few tables away with six others talking around and eating a few I recognized, he was staring at me, and winked when our eyes met. I glared and turning my head sharply back to Kouga and his, well our, friends.
"That was a good one huh?" Kouga said nudging me in the side with his elbow. "Uh…Yeah! Great!" I said slightly confused, realizing Hiten must have told another joke or something. Kouga gave me a skeptical look before chatting with Maten, Hiten's younger brother who had a balled egg shaped head and a large mouth and rather unappealing compared to his brother.
Speaking of brothers…
"Well you seem to be doing well so far, Inuyasha." Said the mono-toned voice of my older half-brother. "Yes," I said looking up at the tall, long white haired man standing next to me, "Quite well."
"Hmm. That is wonderful to hear. I see you have be-friended this numbskull here." He said hitting Kouga in the back of the head, smirking when Kouga went 'ow' and grouped the back of his head.
"What the hell was that-" Kouga said glaring tell he realized who it was "Oh hey Sesshomaru! What's going on man?" He said grinning sheepishly. Sesshomaru looked at me grinning slightly "What a moron, huh?" I nodded grinning in turn "Definitely." "I'm right here you know!" Kouga growled annoyed, "What do you want anyway!" "Well I am here to check up on my little brother, as older brothers should." Sesshomaru said mater-o-factly. "Whatever." Kouga grumbled picking up his fork, and attacked the already half eaten mashed potatoes. Sesshomaru sniggered "Well it seems the wolf is taking good care of you, so I shall be going. The others are awaiting my return." And with that he glided away to a table on the opposite side of the room.
"That guy needs to learn how to talk normally. Where not in the feudal era for pete's sake." Kouga said resting his head in his fist looking at me with a raised eyebrow. "Yes. He does." I said nodding. "Your not much better at times ya'know." He said rolling his eyes. "Our father expects proper speech when talking to others. But I slip sometimes. And…Uh…Kouga, Your potatoes." I said pointing at the hand his head was resting on, which was also holding the fork he was previously eating with which was dripping a lot of potatoes and gravy into his lap. "Hmm?" He said looking at his hand then lap, "Oh damn!"
"Nice going there alpha." Shippo said giggling. "Fail." Said Kilala a female demon with red eyes and light blond and black hair a diamond shape on her forehead, she snuck over from the girls dorm to eat with us (I made Kilala in human form. Deal with it.). "Shut it." Kouga growled standing, "I'll be back…" He stormed away annoyed.
"Where's he going?" I asked. "Probably the bathroom or nearest sink." Hiten said sniggering. His smile turned to a glare as he looked just past my shoulder. I gave him a questioning look until I felt something sit next to me; I twitched my ears slightly at the giggle. I looked to the spot Kouga had been it just moments before to see Jakotsu, I think his name was.
"Well hey there doggy." He said leaning forward towards me a little. I growled as did the others. "Easy there." He said raising his hands in front of him, "Just want to talk to this one." He said motioning to me. "What is it?" I snapped. "Come here for a sec." He said smiling his head cocked to the side as he motioned to a area a bit away. "Why?" I growled suspiciously. "Privacy." He said simply, shrugging. "I wouldn't go Inuyasha…" Shippo said worriedly as the others nodded in agreement. "No funny business." I said glaring at Jakotsu. "Pft. I'm not going to do anything in public." He said rolling his eyes. I glanced at the others who I had just met, they all gave me looks telling me not to go, I was glade they cared…but... "Fine." I said getting up. He looked a bit surprised at first but then grinned and stood up, "Shall we then?" "Wait. Inuyasha I…" "Its fine guys. I'll just be over there. So if I need you, you'll know." I said cutting across Maten, and grinned tiring to reassure them. "But…" "No…He's right…Go ahead." Hiten said sighing.
I looked back at Jakotsu, "You first." He just shrugged and headed to a wall not to far, but out of earshot of the table. "What." I said crossing my arms, ears perked. "Take it easy! I'm not going to hurt you cutey." He said and I growled, "Sorry. But you really are, specially with these ears and all." He said grabbing one of my ears and stroking it lightly. Again I heard those cursed noises again, and Jakotsu giggled. "Aw, he likes his ears rubbed." "Shut up. Get to the point; unless it was to just pet my ears." I said angrily slapping his hand away.
"Right." He said nodding, a hand on his hip. "Bankotsu wants to meet up with you." "No." I said getting ready to walk away. "Hey! Wait I'm not done!" "Fine. Hurry up then." "Geez, you're impatient." He sighed, "Bankotsu wants me to tell you he is sorry for what happened earlier, and that he wants to talk with you tomorrow before class." He finished smiling happily. "No." I sighed, rolling my eyes. "Why?" He questioned. "Would you go if you where ganged up on, bullied then sexually harassed by a guy while his lackeys laughed?" I said skeptically.
"We're not lackeys, we're friends, have been since we were kids. And the harassing thing was not really his fault. It's the fact matting seasons approaching, and you smell simply delectable." He said frowning. "Creeper." I shuttered. "So will you or wont you?" he said ignoring my comment and previous answers. I sighed pinching the space between my eyebrows, "I'll think about it." "Yay!" He said hugging me suddenly. "OI! What the hell!?" I said trying to pry him off. "Sorry." He said embarrassedly, "Meet him in front of the school 20 minutes before class starts okay? You can bring someone if you want though…" He said, then glanced at the table we had left and snickered. Then left heading for the table where he was sitting previous to going to ours.
I looked at him questionly. I turned around about to head to my table, tell I saw Hiten and Maten trying to restrain Kouga. I sweat dropped. I walked to the table and sat down, and started eating my rice. "What the hell was that!?" Kouga yelled quietly so as not to disturb the surrounding people, sitting down a menacing aura spilling from him. "Heh…He wanted to apologize for earlier." I said nervously flatting my ears against my head not looking at him.
"Why the hell did he hug you?!" He growled. Crossing his arms on the table. "He got carried away, after I accepted his apology." I said chewing a bit of rice. "You forgave them?! What the hell is wrong with you!?" He said exasperated throwing his hands in the air. "If he apologizes I'll accept it. That's how I was taught." "Urgh!"
After a few minutes, I finished eating, as did the rest. Kilala bid us Farwell, transformed into a kitten and scampered away to return to her dorm. Shippo, Maten, Hiten, Kouga and I made our way out of the cafeteria and into the halls heading for our individual rooms.
"Sorry for getting mad…" Kouga said after we were nearly to our room, the others had departed earlier. "It's alright." I said smiling at him, "It's good to know you care." He blushed slightly shoving his hands in his pockets look at the floor. "Did he really just apologize?" Kouga asked suddenly. "Yes." I lied. "Alright…" He said looking up as we got to our rooms door. I pulled my key from my pocket, unlocking the door and walking inside. I felt guilty for lying to him, but I don't need him to worry… I went to my dresser and pulled out some pajamas. I headed to the bathroom. I watched Kouga collapse on his bed sighing happy to be able to relax I'm guessing. I closed the door and turned the faucet on the bath tub. Stripping slowly out of my uniform, and slipping into the deep pool of steaming water. I sighed in content as the water soothed my muscles. 'I wonder if I should go…' I thought closing my eyes and leaning back. 'Maybe…' I sighed.
After a while I heard a knock on the door. "Pup you alright? You've been in there for a long time. You didn't pass out did you?" I heard Kouga call threw the door. "Yes I've passed out. Because I would totally answer you if I was." I laughed. "Oh shut up." He called, "I wanted to be sure." I rolled my eyes steeping out of the bath, and draining it.
I dried myself quickly putting on a clean pair of boxers and dressed in my pajamas which consisted of a red t-shirt and a pair of grey baggy sweat pants. I dried my hair, taking extra care to dry my ears; it drove me crazy when water drips into them. Gathering my dirty clothing and then opening the door. I threw my clothes into a hamper next to my desk. I looked over at Kouga and saw he had also changed; he removed his brown head band and was now wearing a brown pair of baggy sweats and no shirt. His chest was well toned, and tanned just like the rest of him. I starred a bit longer then necessary then shook my head looking at him questionly. "What?" He asked. "Why do all alphas sleep topless?" I asked. He laughed, "Its not just alphas you know. But I do it cause it's more comfortable." I nodded and went to my desk and sat it the black chair. I picked up my bag and pulled out the homework I needed to do for tomorrow. "Uh…Could we work together on the homework?" I heard Kouga say from next to me. I looked up and smiled "Sure!" He grinned. "Awesome, just a sec." He grabbed his book and work and we spent the next hour or so completing the work.
"Finished!" I said leaning back in my chair hands behind my head. "Yes!" Kouga grinned, bending his elbows so his hands were on the back of his chair behind him; he flipped over it and landed with a muted thump, on the carpeted floor. "Show off." I said turning around. "You know it." He said grinning. I rolled my eyes.
I glanced at the clock, which read '9:45' "Wow…it's almost ten already." "Really? He said looking to, "wow." "Yeah…" I said. "He Puppy, tomorrow do you want to go into the near by town and get some snacks or something." Kouga said, blushing ever so slightly, hope dancing in his eyes. "Uh…Sure." I said. I stood up and stretched. I'm gonna go to bed now okay?" "Ditto." He said jumping on his bed and sprawling out, waving his hand dramatically "Get the lights wont you?" "Lazy." I said. "Well since your up and all." He said grinning.
I went over to the light switch and switched it off, then headed to my bed and crawled under the covers, snuggling against my pillow. "Night." I heard Kouga say threw the darkness. "Good night Kouga." I heard him snicker and closed my eyes, falling into a blissful sleep…
