School Of Love- Chapter 4

The Date : Oh No : Where is She?

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Saturday-

"InuYasha. Going to get up today?" Mrs Tashio asked, as she opened her son's window. It was a bright and beautiful morning. She had already woken Shippo. Her eldest son claims that he didn't need his mother to help him get up. All that was left was InuYasha; her middle son.

InuYasha groaned. "Do I have to?"

"Oh come on. It's a beautiful day." Mrs Tashio said, as she stroked InuYasha's hair. Taking that as her chance, she ripped off InuYasha's covers. "As your mother I'm telling you to get up." She between her glare. She added a glare to her statement.

Even InuYasha who wasn't facing her knew that she was glaring at him. It wasn't like he was scared or anything. He was tired. He didn't want to get up. It was all Kagome's fault. 'The wench calls me at 3am just to say thanks? Thanks for what?!' InuYasha said to himself, as he finally gave into his mother's yelling.

"Don't fall asleep," Mrs Tashio said with a smile, as she left. "By the way, Miroku called and wants you at the park!"

InuYasha's eyes snapped open. It was always amazing to him how quickly he forgot things. It wasn't that he didn't care, because he did. Miroku was his bestfriend. It was just that... with the whole Kagome thing... he didn't have the usual time on his hands that he normally had. When he usually spent one peroid a day with Kikyo, he was with Kagome. When he ditched school, he took Kagome with him. It had become a system that they talk 24 hours a day.

InuYasha lifted his head, and looked at his clock. It was 9:30am. He didn't seem to care. He was going threw the depressing stage in a teens life. He watched his clock intentivly. Every minute he sat in bed; that was a minute of his time without Kagome.

InuYasha forced himself to stand and take a shower. He walked out of his house at 10:00. He got into his car, and drove to the park. He was late meeting Miroku.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Tardy Demon-

Miroku tapped his foot, as InuYasha walked towards him. It seemed that InuYasha was walking in a slow pace. Miroku knew that something was on his mind. He wasn't going to shout or yell; seeing that it was a Saturday; InuYasha's favorite day of the week. It was his, too, but... Sango always did something with Kagome or one of her girlfriends over the weekends. His favorite time to be with her was on Tuesday's.

"You're late... again," Miroku said with a sigh, as he threw the demon a football.

InuYasha didn't seem to notice the ball being thrown at him. He caught it just in time. Good thing it was a Saturday or he'd have to kick ass for someone throwing something at him.

"Why weren't you in school yesterday?" Miroku asked, as he caught the ball. He could see Sango's figure coming into his eye sight. He prepared his face for getting damage for whatever he did to her that she was going to accuse him of. She was telling the truth 100 percent of the time. It was him who always lied. It's a price to pay for a good face.

"Didn't feel well," was all InuYasha said, as he caught the ball. He threw it to Sango who had her arms out. "Anyone seen Kagome? I think she's hiding because she doesn't want to go on her date," she said, as she broke a nail. "Take it!" She yelled, as she threw the ball to her boyfriend. She sat on the grass, and ripped off the rest of her nail with her teeth. When she was positive that her nail was formed properly, she reached for her cellphone. No answer.

"InuYasha," Sango said, as she put her phone back into her pocket. "Where's Kagome?"

InuYasha's face turned white. "What the hell do you mean by that? Am I supposed to know where she's at all the time?!" He yelled.

Sango rolled her eyes. "Never mind. I'll see you two later." She said as she stood, and walked threw the grass.

InuYasha had become tense. He didn't know where Kagome was. His insides froze. Kagome didn't tell him that she was going anywhere. So... why would she be missing?

InuYasha laughed. He was acting like her mother. Of course, Miroku had noticed InuYasha's strange behavior.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Dating Again- Jitters

Kagome was walking to the park. She needed to find InuYasha. "Hey Kagome," A voice said.

Kagome could tell that the person was running from the gravel rumbling under her feet. She turned, and gasped. "Can we talk?" Kouga asked.

"Um, sure. What is it?" Kagome asked, as she started walking.

Kouga walked next to her. "How have you been?"

"Fine. Where are you getting at?" Kagome asked. She didn't want InuYasha to see her with Kouga. She didn't want to give him the impression that she and her ex-boyfriend had become friends. She didn't want that. Kouga was one of her enemies now. He had broken her heart, and she could never forgive him for it. The one thing that kept her body going, left her for some red head. She knew almost everything about her ex-boyfriend.

Kouga rolled his eyes. "You're always so persistant," he said with a smile. "That's what I always liked about you." He said, as he winked at Kagome.

"I know, that's what I like about me, too. Now, what do you want?!" Kagome yelled. This conversation was getting nowhere.

Kouga took a step back. "When did you get so vicious?" He asked in a somewhat scared tone. He calmed himself. "I like it."

"When did you get to be such a jerk?!" Kagome yelled at the demon. "You dumped me, now you think you can just talk to me whenever you want?!"

"You still mad about the break up? You should be over it," Kouga said with a reasoning tone. "I found someone else. I was considering comparing you two, but now I may start rethinking on that." When he put his gaze on Kagome; she was gone.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

"Hey mutt!" Kouga yelled. After Kagome had apparantly ditched him, InuYasha's scent filled his nose. It was either that he had her, or she seriously didn't want to talk to him. He picked the first choice.

InuYasha turned, and eyed the demon coming towards him. "What is it?" He asked.

"Don't you, 'What is it?', me! Where's Kagome?!" Kouga yelled. He wasn't in a good mood.

"What makes you think I'dknow?!" InuYasha yelled back. He wasn't Kagome's babysitter. She had the right to go where ever she wanted to go without telling him. Even though it did hurt his feelings. He didn't feel special. People other than him wanted her company. What if she couldn't find time for him anymore?

"You've been hanging out with her alot! Of course you should know where-"

"Would both of you hush!" Miroku yelled.

The two demons glared at eachother, before giving Miroku their attention span. "What happened between you and Kagome?" Miroku asked in a calm tone.

Kouga exhaled. "I just wanted to talk to her. But, she started chewing my head off at everything I said." He said, as he sat. When Miroku turned to InuYasha, he was gone.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

"Sorry. Ye just missed her." Kaede said with shrugged shoulders.

InuYasha smiled, and nodded. Where could Kagome be? He walked to his car, and got inside. He could smell Kagome's scent. It was mixed with heartache; and salt.

InuYasha got out of his car, and knocked on the door again. He tapped his foot and waited for Kaede to open the door. InuYasha knocked on the door again.

"Yes?" Kaede asked, with a smile.

"Do you know where she went?" InuYasha asked; trying to be polite even though he was in a hurry. The more he spent time chatting, the more Kagome spent time with this 'admirer'. It made him furious.

Kaede shook her head. "All I know is that she said that she had a date. She left dressed up." She said.

InuYasha nodded, and waved.

Kaede returned the wave, and closed the door.

InuYasha tilted his head back, and let out a puff of air. He was offically irritated. All he wants is to feel Kagome's hand safely in his. For her to tell him what an jackass Kouga was for dumping her. To have her face close to his just like when they were in the closet...

InuYasha didn't have anymore clues. His only option, was to go home. He had to admit it. He...cared about Kagome. She was like a sister to him. Or...could it be more than that? His pledge would have to go on hold until he came up with an answer.

InuYasha asked himself all those questions, as he drove to his house. His car had the scent of cookie dough. He smiled. It was the perfume that Kagome always wore. The scent comforted him. Not that much. It was like a Kagome replacement. Not really.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

The Date- Oh No

Kagome read the napkin that Sango had given her on Wednesday. She was wearing a black skirt with a rose embeded in it. To go with her outfit, was a red shirt with a white collar, and a matching head band. She hoped that she wasn't too dressed up for a date with someone that she didn't know.

"TAKE A RIGHT AT ELM STREET, AND YOU'LL SEE THE MAN OF YOUR DREAMS STANDING UNDER GENMA POLE. GOOD LUCK, GIRL!"

Kagome rolled her eyes, and took a right at Elm Street. Walking down the street, she fiddled with the corner of her shirt. She hoped that she wasn't too dressed up for the occasion. Dressing up irritated her. She didn't know what her admirer was wearing. Kagome hoped that he wasn't wearing anything like a tuxedo. Then she'd really be embarassed.

Kagome gathered her strength, and looked under Genma Pole. Legend, is that you wouldn't pass the pole without getting kissed. 'Yeah right.'

There was a boy about her age standing under the pole. Kagome reconized him.

The boy lifted his head, and smiled at her. "Hi, Kagome. I'm Akitoki Hojo." He said, as he held his hand out. "I already know your name, so you don't have to introduce yourself."

Kagome smiled at the boy. He was sweet in a, "I just met you," way. She took his hand and shook it. "Nice to meet you."

"I thought I'd take you out to lunch, then we could talk for awhile." Hojo said, as he kissed Kagome on the cheek, right under Genma Pole. 'Guess I was wrong.'

Hojo led Kagome into a Wendy's. Kagome smiled, and nodded at him. "Sounds fun."

Hojo had hair that was the same light brown as hers; with beautiful dark brown eyes. Kagome thought that he was attractive; very attractive.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Hojo watched as Kagome ate. He thought that she was the prettiest girl at school. He pratically jumped at the opportunity when he found out that she was single. It was him who had written her name on the boys' locker room wall. It wasn't like he was doing anything wrong. Some other boy would have done it...eventually. "Everything going pleasent?" Hojo asked, as he felt a vibrating feeling in his pocket. It was his phone.

Kagome opened her mouth to reply. "One second," Hojo said, while holding up his index finger. He reached into his pocket; retreiving his phone. He had a text message.

"HAVE YOU DONE IT YET? HURRY UP!"

Hojo read the phonenumber, and sighed. He closed his phone, and gave his attention to Kagome.

"Do you mind if I use the bathroom?" Kagome asked, as she stood.

Hojo held his hands in the air. "Sure, go ahead." He said with a smile.

Kagome returned the smile, and walked towards the girl's bathroom. She had a call from Sango. It was a good thing that she put her phone on silent. Kagome walked into the girl's bathroom, and hid in a stall. It wasn't a call she had; it was a text message.

"HOPE YOU'RE HAVING FUN! I'M SURE NOT! KOUGA AND INUYASHA GOT INTO SOME KIND OF FIGHT AND NOW MIROKU'S TRYING TO GET THEM TO MAKE UP! THERE'S NO ONE TO PAY ATTENTION TO ME! YOU SHOULD BE ON YOUR DATE RIGHT NOW! IF YOU'RE NOT... I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL HAVE TO GIVE HOJO HIS $50.00 AND HIS WATCH! SRY BUT I CAN'T GIVE HIM HIS GUM BACK. I ATE IT! HAVE FUN!"

Kagome smiled at the text message. She decided not to reply. Replying would take her attention away from Hojo, because Sango would keep texting her throughout her time with him. Kagome stepped out of the stall, and checked herself in the mirror. When she was satisfied with herself; she left.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Hojo took a seat, just as Kagome stepped out of the bathroom. She took her seat, and smiled at him.

Hojo seemed tense. He was staring at her food. "What's wrong?" Kagome asked. Hojo snapped out of her trance. "Nothing! Enjoy yourself." He said with a smile, as he ate his food.

Kagome eyed him. He seemed jittery. As if eating was something that he wanted her to do. 'What if he thinks I'm anerexic?!' Kagome said to herself, as she sipped her lemonade. She ended up gulping the juice down; without knowing.

Hojo watched her drink. He smiled at her. 'That's right. You drink the whole thing!'

Kagome put her drink down, when she was finished with it. She felt queezy. 'It's only lemonade, right?' As the minutes went on, Kagome felt worse. She had a terrible stomach ache; but the urge to eat. She was tempted to get up and dance, but glued her feet to the floor in her mind. It seemed to help. Not really.

Hojo had noticed. He just kept smiling. He knew that Kagome would crack soon.

Kagome plopped her head onto the table; mumbling something. It sounded like, "My mummy stole my mommy," over and over again.

"Oh my god! Is she okay?!" The waitress asked, as she passed Kagome. She was carrying a picture of water. She was about to pour it on Kagome's head.

Hojo stood, and walked towards the knocked out girl. "Yes, she's fine. She had a long day at work yesterday. A nap is all she needs." He said with a smile, as he wrapped an arm around Kagome's shoulders. Of course when he said his statement, he had his fingers crossed behind his back. He carried her bridal style to his car. Kagome was already sleeping.

(1o Minutes Later...)

Hojo knocked on a black door. A boy that was 18, answered it. "Good. You brought her." He said with a smile. His eyes flickered in the sunlight. He turned to the woman standing next to him. "What would you like us to do to her?" He asked.

The woman smirked. "Do your worst." She said with a laugh.

Hojo nodded, and went back to his car. He opened the door, and lifted Kagome into his arms. He returned about thirty seconds later.

The woman continued laughing. "Lay her on the couch. Hurry!" She said as she clapped her hands to hurry Hojo.

"You sound just like my mother." He said under his breath, as he laid Kagome on the brown couch. "You can start." The woman said, as she sat in her chair. Hojo and the boy nodded, and went to work.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

Next Morning-

The next morning, Kaede called Sango. Sango called Miroku. And, Miroku called InuYasha. By 8:00am, they were all sitting in Kagome's living room.

"Have any of ye seen her?" Kaede asked.

The teens shook their heads. Kagome hadn't come home that night. Kaede stayed up all night waiting for her to return. She had been tempted to call Kagome's mother.

"InuYasha. Do you know where she could be?" Sango asked, as she squeezed Miroku's hand. The boy's hand had started turning purple.

InuYasha inhaled the air. He only got a glance of Kagome's scent. It was mixed with something that he never hoped he'd smell again. "Come on," he said as he stood.

"Where are we going?" Miroku asked, as he stood. To late. InuYasha was already out the door. Miroku turned to Sango. "Stay with Kagome's grandmother." He said with a smile, as he kissed her on the cheek.

"Be careful!" Sango called, as she watched her boyfriend disappear behind Kagome's front door.

&&&&&&&&&&&&

"Where are we going?" Miroku asked, as he put on his seatbelt. He knew that there was something going on that he wasn't supposed to know. InuYasha was acting strange. He wouldn't stop twitching and mumbling 'it can't be true', to himself.

InuYasha didn't answer at first. So many thoughts were going threw his mind.

"Earth to InuYasha!" Miroku yelled.

"I can smell her scent. But... it's faint." InuYasha said in an emotionless tone, as he made a left turn. The more he drove west, the more Kagome's scent became stronger. And...the more it was mixed with the thing...that killed his father.

"InuYasha. Calm down." Miroku said, as he put a hand on his bestfriends shoulder. InuYasha ignored the monk. He wasn't in a good mood. Miroku knew this, and kept silent. It was either keep silent; or die. Rule number one: never mess with InuYasha when he's thinking or mad.

He chose to live.

&&&&&&&&&&&&
