Chapter 3- GIVE ME BACK MY BOOK!
Kagome was startled awake by the sounds of truck doors slamming and speeding away. Panicking she grabbed a bat next to her door and crept downstairs to the living room. Since no one was there, she relaxed, putting the bat down and went back upstairs to get ready for school. As soon as she stepped out of her door, she noticed a rather large bouquet of the usual assortment of flowers: pink carnations, red roses, and yellow tulips, but today there was one white rose in the middle with the usual 'I'm sorry' note.
Almost completely forgetting what happened she grabbed them and rushed into her house. Just as she was pulling out a vase, the phone rang.
"Uh hello?'
"Kagome! I'm so sorry! I don't know what came over me." Koga sounded on the other line.
Suddenly all of the previous night's events flew back into her head. All of her rage flew through her and she dropped the vase, watching it shatter into many pieces on the floor.
"Kagome?! Are you ok? What was that?!" Koga almost yelled. That's when Kagome decided to say something. Inuyasha wasn't there to protect her, but she figured she'd be fine since it was only a telephone call.
"Kagome are you alr-."
"NO KOGA I AM NOT ALRIGHT. How dare you call my house and ask me if I'm alright when you know damn well why I'm not alright! Koga what if Inuyasha wasn't there?! You would've hit me! Kami knows what would've happened after that! This time, it's not gonna work. So leave the sorry's, because there is no and I mean NO way of me ever forgiving you!" she screamed into the phone.
Koga was shocked. He never knew Kagome could get like this. He was scared and excited at the same time. He didn't want to lose Kagome, especially after finding this new confidence in her.
"Kagome I swear I'll make it up to you. I-." she cut him off getting angrier by the minute.
"NO Koga geez get it through your head! We are through, you hear me? T-H-R-O-U-G-H THROUGH! As in not together anymore! I want you to bring me my book at lunch today, and stay away from me for now on!" she started to calm down, it was only morning after all. Then Koga finally spoke after a moment in silence.
"Kagome we aren't through trust me. I have to go my ride is waiting. We'll talk about it at lunch. Ok I lo-."
Before he could say anything else she slammed the phone down in anger. Deciding to get even instead of moping about it, she grabbed her books and the oh-so-lovely bouquet of flowers and headed out the door.

At school she was still infuriated, so she forgot about everything and went straight to class. As usual Madame Kaede gave a quiz on nouns and vocabulary. She got through french class without a problem, but when her algebra class came she sat watching the clock.
' Only twenty minutes left.' she thought.
Right then a note was passed onto her desk. Looking around her she saw Inuyasha behind her, so she opened the note, happy that it wasn't from Koga.
'Kagome where were you this morning?!?! I waited for you to come get your purse but you never came! What? Do you want me to look like a drag queen?! '
She put the note down and banged her head on her desk. 'Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. how could I forget?'
"Kagome? Kagome! Dear if you keep doing that I'm afraid I'll have to send you to the clinic...Maybe the guidance counselor." Mr. Myoga told her.
Kagome was snapped out of her thoughts and looked up to see her class laughing at her. She said sorry and Mr. Myoga chuckled and continued his lesson. Kagome scribbled her apologies and passed the note to Inuyasha. He kicked her chair starting to get angry with the way she was always apologizing and explaining. When she didn't do anything, he kicked her chair again this time harder. As soon as she turned around he leaned over to her and whispered, "Meet me at my locker right before lunch I need to talk to you about something."
Kagome nodded and turned back around. ' Now only two minutes left.' she thought. She copied down her homework just in time for the bell to ring and she rushed out. On her way to Inuyasha's she felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see Koga right behind her.
"Hey Kagome. We really need to talk" he said.
"Yeah we do." Kagome said, with a smirk on her face, "Meet me in the cafeteria in a few minutes and since it's breakfast food lunch day, save me some of your pancakes and syrup okay?"
Koga nodded eagerly and kissed her on the cheek and left. Little did they know, they had a small, one-man audience, who wasn't liking what he was seeing.
---
Kagome finally reached Inuyasha's locker, after returning to her own to get what she needed for 'Operation: Get Koga', but he wasn't there. She waited for him, but he never showed up. Getting hungry, she decided to just go to lunch. She sat down at a small table and ate quickly.
' I wonder why he didn't show up. I mean he was the one that wanted to meet me there. Besides he has my purse! I have to find him! My stuff is in there!' Kagome got up and threw away her trash. It wasn't long before she was looking for Inuyasha.
After searching for a few minutes, Kagome spotted Inuyasha near the exit and ran over to him.
"Hey where were you? I waited for almost forever!" Kagome exclaimed, smiling.
Inuyasha didn't say a word. He simply handed her purse to her, turned around and left.
Kagome was confused. She wondered what his problem was, he said he had something to tell her and she wanted to know what it was. Finally making up her mind, Kagome ran over to Inuyasha who was now talking to a small group of friends. As she got to them, everyone stopped talking and laughing and just stared at her. Kagome got a very bad feeling and let out a nervous chuckle.
"Uh, hey guys. Can I talk to Inuyasha alone for a minute?" she choked out.
Most of them ignored her, but some of them rolled their eyes and Inuyasha pretended he didn't know she was there.
Kagome was starting to get unnerved but found the courage to yank Inuyasha's arm and pull him away.
"Oi. What the hell do you want!" Inuyasha yelled.
Kagome was surprised. She didn't know that Inuyasha was mad at her. She wondered what she did.
"Um Inuyasha?" Kagome started, "I thought you wanted to tell me something."
That's what hit Inuyasha. He forgot that he was going to ask Kagome out to a movie to get to know her better. When he saw Kagome and Koga in the hall, all he could think about was getting the ' ungrateful wench' out of his mind. Secretly in his mind, something told him that was impossible, but his stubbornness overruled the thought. Thinking of a quick way to hurt her feelings to get her back for his own hurt feelings, he said what first came to mind.
"Yeeeeeeah I have something to tell you. I hope you run back to Koga and he abuses you until you die wench! Then I'll come to your funeral and laugh my head off at how pathetic you were!" Inuyasha screamed, "Oh look at the time. There's only twenty minutes of lunch left. I wouldn't want to keep you away from your lover-boy now would I?"
Inuyasha almost regretted what he said when his friends started laughing and cheering him on, causing Kagome to look down in embarrassment. Just as he was going to apologize, his mind screamed at him. 'Don't be stupid!' it told him, 'It's her own fault for taking that jerk back! Look at her. She's probably guilty for what she did.'
Little did Inuyasha know, Kagome was silently fuming. She was embarrassed and she was hurt. How could Inuyasha think that she was getting back together with Koga after all he did? Why was he being such a jerk? Kagome finally snapped when she heard one of Inuyasha's friends yell, "You tell her man! That'll teach her to be so stupid!"
"Stupid? STUPID? You have no idea what I'm going through! So you go and tell your friends about what happened?! I thought you were better than that Inuyasha. But I guess you're just like him!" Kagome screamed. She really felt like crying, but she was tired of people thinking and talking about her like they knew what was going on in her head. "You don't even know what's going on!" she yelled.
"Sure I do!" he yelled back, "You and Koga are getting back together! I saw!"
'He saw?' Kagome frowned, ' What did he see?' she thought about everything and then remembered what was going on in the hall way. That got her. She was really mad now. But she wasn't going to take it out on Inuyasha. Ohhhh Noo. A very lucky guy was waiting for and he was gonna get it. Kagome smiled and chuckled a bit and straightened up to walk away.
"I'm sorry you feel that way Inuyasha." Kagome murmured before walking back to her table and getting her stuff.
Inuyasha wondered if he had done the right thing. He didn't have to say all of that in front of people. Even if she deserved it. Oh well, he thought and sat walked out to do some homework in the library.
Kagome was sort of happy Inuyasha said what he did. All the more reason to let Koga have it. Slowly, she got up and made her way to Koga's table with her 'equipment' in hand.
As she reached the table, Koga jumped up and hugged her. She giggled and let him do it. She saw an extra tray with pancakes and syrup waiting for her, along with another flower and her book.
Kagome smiled. Her plan was working out fine. Koga let go of her and started talking about missing her and going to his soccer game after school.
"Kagome?" he called, "So can you go?"
She laughed and stood in front of the table . "Koga, Koga, Koga. You just don't get it. Let me be nice about this." Kagome said in a mocking tone. "Sorry I can't come to your game. You see, I would only go if I had a boyfriend there to see."
She saw the confused look on Koga's face right before pulling out the bouquet of flowers and tossing them on the ground and stomping them. She picked up the flower that was on the table and tucked it behind her ear before saying, "Oh Koga, getting me flowers was really sweet. Let me do something sweet for you."
She didn't wait another minute before picking up the small cup of syrup and pouring it on top of his head. Everyone in the whole area started laughing except for Koga and a few 'close friends' of his.
"I meant what I said on the phone this morning," Kagome said, "We're through."
And with that, Kagome picked up her book and strutted down the hallway getting to class before the bell rang and sat in favorite seat with her new confidence.
MEANWHILE
Inuyasha was working on his Algebra homework, when some annoying little freshmen came running in yelling to someone.
"Hey did you hear? That Kagome girl just creamed, well syruped, Koga in the cafeteria! I think she and him finally broke it off for good!" The boy yelled, laughing his head off.
After processing that through his head, Inuyasha jumped up in embarrassment and fear. "What have I done?!?!?!?!?!"
