Authors Note~ Yahooooooooooootie!!!!!!!!!!!! Chapter 4! Chapter 4!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yippeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Aren't you all so very proud of me? You should be! I am so so so so so so so so sorry that I have been having so so much trouble updating. I have been extremely busy! Vacations, guests, friends, and plain old summer activity have been taking up my time. You know how it is. But, I have good news! I think that my schedule is going to open up a bit for at least a couple of weeks. I should be able to update every couple of days if I really try. Which I will. So, I'm begging you wonderful people to please stick with me. Okay, I think I'm done rambling. I think.......................... yeah. On with the show!!!!!

Disclaimer~ Okay. It dismays me to tell you all that I DO NOT own InuYasha. If I did, I promise that I would give all my readers a free pass to SesshieLand, where an anime freak's dreams come true. It is a wonderful place full of lotsa Sessie-ness.

InuYasha didn' t know how to answer Sango's question. He felt uncomfortable talking to Sango this way. Heck, he hardly knew her!!! Maybe he should just answer her and get it over with.

"Well...................uhhhhhhh.......................I don't really know her. Well, I mean, I guess I like her as a friend, but as for anything more..... I don't know. I feel like I've met her somewhere before though. There's a sense of familiarity whenever I am around her. I can't really explain it." That was the best that InuYasha could do without completely spazzing out.

Sango seemed to be satisfied with InuYasha's response to her question. She just stood there and beamed with excitement and bliss. She was just a little bit over-excited about this situation.

"Yay! I knew you loved her! I just knew it! Was it love at first sight? Was it? Huh, huh?????" Sango was back to her stage of over-excitedness. That couldn't be a good thing.

All that InuYasha could do after Sango's last few comments was sweat drop.

He thought to himself, 'How can anyone be so very spasticly insane?' This girl clearly needed a large dosage of Ritalin. She sure was a head-case.

"Okay, Sango. Let's not jump ahead of ourselves. I am NOT in love with Kagome!!! I just-" InuYasha cut off his sentence. He turned a very dark color of crimson. It was almost as if he was hiding something.....

Sango's grin grew larger at InuYasha's drop of the subject that was never to be. Her devious brain went to work immediately.

Before Sango had a chance to make a smart-ass remark, InuYasha quickly ran back into the cafeteria.

'FEH! She really IS insane! I do not love Kagome. Where the hell would she get that idea???' InuYasha's mind was racing. He continued his thoughts..... 'Well, Kagome is beautiful'

'You know you want her'

'WHO ARE YOU?!?!?!'

'I'm your inner voice, idjit.'

'I thought I got rid of you a long time ago!!!'

'That just goes to prove that I am invincible!!!!!!!!!! You'll never get rid of me!!!'

'Fine, I get the point. So, may I ask................ WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!'

'Well, since I am your inner voice, I am here to show you the light'

'Uh.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Show me the light about what?'

'About KAGOME you retarded fool!'

'Okaaay....'

'As I was trying to say before I was so RUDELY interrupted...........You obviously think that Kagome is quite the beautiful person. No hiding that.'

'Um..... maybe'

'Listen, I am in your thoughts. Don't deny it! There's no hiding ANYTHING from me!'

'Grrr...........'

'Anywho..... If you already think that she is a total chicken wing, and you already know that she is a beauty on the inside too, then why don't you try getting a little closer to her? Come one, you know you want to!'

'Uh........Chicken wing???'

'Yes, chicken wing. You wouldn't understand. It's sort of an "inner voice lingo"....if you will. But, you're stalling! Don't change the subject!'

'Ok. Sorry. But what makes you think that I should try with her? Even if I did try, it's not like I would even have a chance!'

'Man, you are sooooo depressing!'

'Jeeper golly gosh, thankyou SOOOOO much for the support!'

'Oh, anytime! As for your low self confidence level, just know that if you make the effort, there is always an oppurtunity for something to happen.'

'Now you sound like a shrink. That's all I need, a shrinky-dink. My inner voice is a shrink. Yipee!'

'Now, now. I believe I detected a hint of sarcasm in that dialogue. Anyways, it's happy hour. i hafta go catch up with the guys. As I said, GET CLOSER TO KAGOME!!! Over and out!'

InuYasha just stood there. He was now positive that he was clinically insane. Maybe he should check in at the local loony-bin.

"Umm.....InuYasha? Are you okay?" Kagome was standing right in front of InuYasha, who looked like he had been hypnotized. After all, he was just standing in the middle of the cafeteria.

Snapping out of his mind daze, InuYasha said, "Huh?! Oh, Kagome, it's you! I'm fine. I just lost it for a second there. Sorry about that."

The girl in front of him just smiled and nodded at her friend.

"Oh, InuYasha, we should probably start heading back to class. The bell will ring any second now."

"Okay. I'll follow you."

AFTER SCHOOLISH TIME

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

InuYasha was walking down the hall with Kagome. They were headed toward the gym to face the dreaded coach in detention!!! (DUN DUN DUN)

There was an awkward silence in that was lingering over Kagome and InuYasha. Kagome was just playing with her hair innocently while InuYasha was silently twidling his thumbs. InuYasha had been thinking about what his "inner voice" had been saying to him. After spening so much time pondering his thoughts about it, he now willed a blush to not come when he was in the presence of Kagome.

''So Kagome, what do you think we'll hafta do in detention?" InuYasha just had to break the silence, and this was the best way to do it.

"Well, seeing as it is a physical education detention, I'd say we will probably have to go though the equipment for the freshman health class. You know, go through the condoms and make sure they're still in commision, check the slides and videos for damage, just stuff like that," Kagome said very casually.

After hearing all of this, InuYasha's entire expression fell flat off of his face. Suddenly, Kagome bursted out in laughter. She was laughing so much that she had to grab ahold of InuYasha's shoulder to prevent falling over. At this point in time, InuYasha still had no expression whatsoever in his priceless face.

"Hahahahahahaha! I can't believe y-you fell for that!!! Hahaha! You....you should have seen the look on your face!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This was all Kagome could spit out before she collapsed onto the floor.

InuYasha noticed her long fair legs as she sat on the floor laughing. 'Wow. What a figure.... WHAT AM I SAYING??? I SOUND PERVISH!!!!!!!!!' Uh-oh..... InuYasha started thinking again! Luckily, he was distracted by Kagome as she stood up and motioned for him to continue following her.

"Okay, to answer your question correctly, I believe that we will be participating in some kind of workout or something. You know, probably just running and sit-ups and chin-ups. Stuff like that."

"Alrighty then. So it's basically an ennduro thing. Sounds fun," InuYasha said quite sarcastically.

Before either of them noticed, they were at the locker room doors. They agreed that it would be wise to change into Phys Ed attire. Following their agreement, they made their seperate ways to their gym lockers.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

IN THE GYM

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kagome walked out onto the hardwood floor of the gym room. InuYasha hadn't come out of the locker room yet, so she stood by the bench.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, Kagome saw InuYasha emerge from the locker room entrance. Her mouth almost dropped at the sight of the well built young man, who happened to have a tight muscle shirt on. Kagome drooled over the well chizzled muscles that seemed to ripple through the teensy shirt. (AN: OMG! It's a fantasy come true!!!.....for me at least)

Kagome's fantasies came to an abrupt halt as she heard a loud voice say behind her, "Are you two mud puppies ready for detention with me?"
