The World Can Be Very Strange
Chapter 4: Catching Up
Ayame's POV
OK, so I'm moving to a new area. I need to find Koga...
Who does he think he is, leaving me like that?! I mean come on!
Just because you're going to middle school doesn't mean you have an excuse not to keep in touch with me!
I just can't believe I'm FINALLY going to catch up with him! Yay!
So here's the story: Koga's 3 years older than me. when I was in first grade he was in fourth. He actually said he might marry me when we get older! And don't tell me I'm stupid to think that he would actually do that, but he promised. It was the night of the lunar rainbow, and I made him pinkie-promise!
So basically, when he was off to middle school, I was stuck in third grade. Luckily I had been planning for this and had kept my grades up, so I got permission to skip third grade. But i still had to wait a year before I could catch up to him. So he's in seventh grade now, and I was going to go into fifth, and my school said I couldn't skip another grade until I passed some test in the middle of the year.
So I waited, I took it, and I passed!
So here I am, walking to my first day of middle school!
Yeah I know, you might still think I'm a blockhead for actually believing him, but have you ever felt what true love feels like?
I mean, yeah, technically I'm supposed to still be in fourth grade, but I'm super smart!
By the way, I'm a wolf demon, so I kind of have extra powers, hehe.
Oh yeah, and I made a point of not making any friends in elementary school so I could be with Koga.
Boy, I wonder what he'll say when he sees me?
OK so... It's lunch, and I still haven't seen him yet. Dangit, if he was a year younger this would be SO much easier!
Hmm I'll have to find a way to skip another grade...
Yes! I see him! He's with two other wold demons and... a GIRL?!
Grrr! I race over there and plop down in between them.
"Hey Koga!" I exclaim. "It's me, Ayame!"
"Err..." Koga says.
"What, you down remember me?"
"Not really..."
"You were in fourth grade and I was in first and you promised that when we got older you would marry me!"
"Um I don't remember ever saying something like that. Besides, Kagome's my women." He says, while a surprised 'Kagome' just stares at us.
"What?! But down you remember? It was on the night of the lunar rainbow and you said you would marry me, and the I made you pinkie promise!"
"Huh?!"
He looked like he remembered, but he still denied it!
"I still, uh, don't remember..." he said.
"Um, Koga, she sounds like she's telling the truth," said Kagome.
"But you're my woman, so even if I did remember, it wouldn't make a difference." Ugh! KOGA! Stop denying it! I worked all these years to make it to sixth grade two years early, JUST FOR YOU!
"Koga! Come ON! I know you remember!" I yell.
"Um, hello! You can't just come up to someone and tell them that you are ENGAGED to them!" He yells back.
Then I start laughing. We're arguing like we're married! Hehe.
"Hey! Why the heck are you laughing?!" Koga asked, annoyed.
"Sorry it's just-"
I'm cut off when a dog demon come over to the table.
"Hey wolf-boy." He says. "What are you doing with Kagome?"
"Shut up, mutt-face. She's mine."
"Oh really? Then who's this chic? She some kind of little sister?"
"Hey! I'm in sixth grade!" I yell at him.
"Um, Inuyasha?" asks Kagome. "What are you doing?"
"I'm trying to save you from this loser." And with this the dog picks up Kagome bridal-style and carries her out of the cafeteria.
"Hey! Inuyasha! Get back here with my woman!" Koga yells.
"Um, Koga, I think you should just let him go." One of the other wolf demons says.
"Yeah, Kagome's yours anyway, why bother wuith Inuyasha?"
Koga growls. "Ayame, why don't you just go sit with your little friends?" He asks angrily."
"Because... I don't have any?"
"Well then go find some!"
"Fine!" I yell as I walk across the cafeteria. I end up sitting next to three girls. They seem pretty friendly. They introduce themselves as Sango, Kirara, and Rin. I think I just mae some friends...
