Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.

Thanks for the reviews!

DeathRose105- Thanks! Yeah Kagome's in complete denial…don't worry she'll realize her feelings soon enough.

Brandtishot- haha…I guess I left you speechless!

Shichinintai's girl- Yeah I really would not want to be Inuyasha at that point…I wouldn't mind being Kagura though. Haha…just kidding! Glad you got some giggles out of it!

Note: Just clarifying the timeline because the story is taking place over their four years of high school. Right now they're in the end of freshman year, this chapter is taking place over the month of May.

Oh and one more thing, this chapter is completely Sess-centric. I thought I'd give the guy a starring role. Enjoy!

Chapter 7

I've Got Dreams to Remember

Inuyasha sat at the table eating dinner with Totosai when Sesshoumaru started ransacking the kitchen.

"Dinner's on the table Sess." Inuyasha pointed to the food, assuming that's what his brother was looking for.

"Where's the mail Totosai?" Sesshoumaru said ignoring Inuyasha and continuing to look through every draw, cabinet, nook and cranny in the kitchen.

"It's on the table." Totosai smiled and took a disgustingly large bite of his food.

Inuyasha chuckled when Sesshoumaru flipped through the mail like a crazy person.

"Ah! Here it is!" He grinned holding up an envelope.

"Bhat's bat bor?" Inuyasha said with his mouth full.

Translation: What's that for?

"This." He held up the envelope for the two of them to see. "Is my ticket out of here."

"Care to elaborate?" Inuyasha set his fork down.

"I will in a minute." Sesshoumaru carefully opened the envelope. Inuyasha and Totosai watched, shivering with anticipation as Sesshoumaru's eyes danced across the letter from line to line. When he was done he passed the letter over to Totosai. Inuyasha looked at Sesshoumaru, he was smiling.

That wasn't something he did very often.

"Wow Sesshoumaru…I had no idea, well congratulations!" Totosai laughed and gave Sesshoumaru a pat on the back.

"What's going on?" Inuyasha, who still wasn't in on it was completely confused.

"I got accepted to Tokyo U a year early."

"Holy shit…" Inuyasha was lost for words. He knew his brother was really smart, but he had no idea Sesshoumaru planned to do this. "Congrats man, seriously."

He got up and shook his brothers hand, but didn't make eye contact. He still couldn't get over seeing his brother doing the nasty with, well a nasty girl.

Sesshoumaru noticed Inuyasha's strange avoidance of eye contact.

"Is something wrong brother?"

"Nah…uh gotta go, Sango asked me to do something." He quickly ran out of the room, but not before running into the doorpost. "I'm ok!" He called out as he ran out the front door.

Sesshoumaru shook his head. "I can't wait to get out of here."


"Sesshoumaru you can't be serious!" Jaken, his toad-like friend cried upon hearing his best friend's plan to skip senior year and go straight to University.

A lot of people didn't understand Sesshoumaru and Jaken. No one could believe a lowly, sad dork could be accepted by the good looking, suave and popular Sesshoumaru. Then again Sesshoumaru was never the type to care about what others think. He, for some reason he couldn't comprehend, didn't really mind Jaken constantly tagging along.

"Look Jaken, I've thought about this long and hard for a long time. It's the right thing for me to do."

It was lunchtime and the normal crowd at Sesshoumaru's table all had something different to say.

"So it looks like you and me will be hitting the party circuit together then, ay Sesshoumaru." Naraku grinned and then winked at his friend.

"Yeah sure."

"Hey Sesshoumaru…who gets Kagura?" Bankotsu smirked and put his arm around her.

"Who gets me?" She removed his hand and looked at him with disgust. "I don't belong to anyone."

"Like we haven't heard that one before. Come on Kag, think about it as a line of succession, first you were Naraku's, then Sessshoumaru's and don't forget about all the guys in between. Don't I get a turn?" He gave her another sleazy smirk.

"Not in your life loser." She got up and walked away.

"Damn. She's definitely a tough one. She wild in bed Sess?"

"I refuse to discuss my sex life with you." He took a sip from his soda can.

"You dated Kagura?" Kikyo asked Naraku innocently. She was the newest fixture at the table. Normally it was an upperclassman table, but Nraku made the exception when they began 'dating'. Still she didn't know too much about everyone's past.

"I dated her on and off a little bit." He said nonchalantly.

"A little bit…oh please. They dated on and off constantly since freshman year. Well except for this year of course. Who would have thought…" Bankotsu took Kikyo's hands. "This little minx would take Kaggie's place."

Kikyo wondered if Kagura knew Naraku's little secret.


Kikyo sat in independent study bored as anything. She hated this period, there was never anything to do and none of her friends had it with her…well except for Sesshoumaru, but they weren't really friends, but connected only by association with Naraku.

That's why she was so surprised when Sesshoumaru asked if he could talk to her for a minute.

"Um, sure. Have a seat." She motioned to the chair across from her table. "So what's up?" She asked as he sat down.

"Kikyo what's the real deal with you and Naraku?"

"Huh? What are you talking about? We're a couple…duh…"

"You can't fool me Kikyo, you're just another girl in his plan to seem like Mr. Straight Arrow."

Kikyo looked at him. "You know?"

"I figured it out a couple of years ago."

"Really? How?" Naraku was pretty damn good at not being gay. Naraku told her no one had any idea. She guessed he was wrong.

Sesshoumaru smirked, leaned over the table and whispered into Kikyo's ear.

"Sophomore year, I go to study at Naraku's house and when I go into his bedroom I find him completely naked, holding out open arms for me."

Kikyo's eyes widened. Sesshoumaru sat back down.

"Let's just say the guy hadn't perfectly honed his gaydar skills back then." Sesshoumaru gave her a wry smile. "Look, I know you think this is all a game, but this can ruin you just as easily as it made you. I'm just looking out for you…"

"Thank you, but…"

"Look, you're a sweet kid. I just want you to be aware…I don't want you to become another Kagura."

With that he got up and left the library with Kikyo watching him until he was out of sight.


"Sesshoumaru!" Kagura called as he walked past her in the empty hallway.

"What?" He kept walking. Kagura caught up to him and tried to keep with his pace.

"When the hell were you going to tell me about your plans Sesshoumaru?" She grabbed his hand to stop him in the hallway.

"Look this is something I need to do Kagura, I'm not going to explain myself to you."

"What about us?"

"Us? I thought we were unexclusive."

"What gave you that idea?"

"How about the fact that you let Bankotsu do who knows what to you at Naraku's party last weekend."

"Look we didn't have sex or anything…"

"Big fucking deal…you were still cheating. Good riddance anyway."

"Sesshoumaru come on…I'm sorry I was drunk ok…I didn't mean…"

"You didn't mean to, but you did. I get it. Look I'm done."

"Sesshoumaru." Tears began to form in her eyes.

"I'll see you around."

He walked away, leaving her standing alone in the middle of the hallway.
