Chapter 9
Monday came to soon for the four as they slowly made their way to class. Kagome and Sango were board and tried since both had planned a head and finished their class work on Monday. While Sango used the computer Kagome put her head down and tried to sleep. Just as she was about to lose consonance she heard Naraku say, "Hello."
"Hey Naraku, is there something you need?" she asked as she sat up straight.
"No, I gust thought that maybe we could talk." Naraku answered.
"Talk about what?" Kagome replied.
"I was hoping that we could talk about our date this coming week end." He answered as he smiled slightly at her.
"Oh, well where did you want to go?" Kagome asked. 'I haven't even asked my mom yet.' She thought.
"Well if you don't mind I thought we'd go to a restaurant near the beach." He answered.
"But I don't have any fancy clothing. How about we go to a fast food place and a movie?" Kagome suggested just as the bell rang.
"Very well…do you want to have lunch together?" Naraku asked as he watched her put her things away.
"Sorry Naraku but we have plans." Sango said as she joined Kagome's side.
"Sorry." Kagome added.
"Then I'll see you in fourth bock…bye." He replied before walking off.
"We need to talk." Sango hissed.
"We'll talk during lunch I have to get to chem. class." Kagome said.
"Fine." Sango said as they separated.
Once Kagome sat down by Naraku she kept to her self and listened to the lesson. She had no idea what she was going to do but she would not turn this down. 'Be sides I could use a date.' She thought as she copied down the notes. After class Kagome ran to the cafeteria and met up with Sango.
"Where are you guys going?" Miroku asked as he saw them getting ready to leave.
"I promised Kagome I'd help her with some stuff." Sango said.
"We'll see you in fourth." Kagome added as she was dragged off.
"Is it just me or are they acting weird?" Miroku asked.
"They're girls; they do nothing but act weird." Inuyasha answered.
"True." Miroku said.
Once Kagome and Sango were alone Kagome put up a barrier and staid quiet. She refused to look at Sango and she refused to say anything until Sango said something. After growing tried of her friends patience Sango took in a calming breath and asked, "Are you or aren't you going to go out with Naraku?"
"Uh, yes but just to see what kind of a guy he is." Kagome answered.
"But you told me he gave you a bad feeling." Sango replied.
"I do and I want to see why." Kagome explained.
"But what if he tries something?" Sango asked.
"Then I'll fight back and kick his sorry ass." Kagome answered.
"You better tell me every thing that happens when you get home." Sango replied.
"I'll call you the moment I walk in." Kagome said.
"Good, now let's get to class before we're given detention." Sango said as she waited for Kagome to lower the barrier.
"Not like if I show up any way." Kagome replied as the barrier went down.
"True." Sango said.
After making it to class on time Kagome sat by Inuyasha before they were told to go to some presentation in the library. As Kagome and Inuyasha walked side by side both felt as if they were begin watched by someone. After sitting through a long and boring speech about drugs begin bad, they went to gym only to be told they had to work on home work. Just as Kagome finished her sentence her pen was taken from her as she heard Inuyasha say, "You study too much."
"Give it back." Kagome hissed as she placed her book donw.
"I am not giving it back…wench." Inuyasha said as he began to smirk.
"Give it back!" she hissed as she stood up.
"Inuyasha!" Sango yelled.
"No way wench; I'll just keep it." He said as he turned and began to walk away with her pen. 'Why am I flirting with her?' he thought.
"Get back here." She yelled as she began to run after him.
Most of fourth block Kagome spent trying to get her pen back. But she soon forgot all about her pen when she began to have fun by flirting back. Their walk home was a peaceful one that she completely enjoyed. After getting home Kagome changed to her hanyou from and went back to the same park to see Inuyasha sitting at the same tree they had talked in. 'If only he knew.' She thought before jumping up while saying, "Hey."
"Hey, I take it you don't come here often." He said as he looked at her. 'Why does she seem so familiar?' He thought.
"Nope, only when I get a chance; so how you been?" she replied.
"Fine, hey how close do you live by?" he asked as she remembered seeing her run into Kagome's house.
"Close enough…you?" was all she said, 'Shit…I need to leave.' She thought.
"A block away." He answered.
"Well I've got to go…see you around." She said before taking off at full speed.
Kagome quickly ran in ad changed back as she closed the door. Before Inuyasha could even knock on the door he could hear Kagome saying sorry at least a dozen times before he heard a woman's voice say, "Kagome I told you and you don't listen. What am I going to do if you get caught?"
"I'm sorry mom…I promise I won't change into my hanyou form, just please don't be mad." Kagome said disparately.
'Emeri is Kagome?' Inuyasha thought.
"Kagome I can't help but worry. Please just tell me why you insist on changing into your true from?" Saya said.
'True form?' Inuyasha repeated in his mind.
"Because if I don't I lose my miko energy faster and I get easily drained in advanced miko training. Please don't take me out of that class." Kagome explained as she came close to tears.
"Oh, why are you barely telling me?" Saya asked as she hugged her daughter.
"I didn't want you to worry. You already worry about me begin found out by my own cousin." Kagome answered.
"Ok, well change when you have to but only in the house. Now come on I don't feel like cooking." Saya aid as she grabbed her keys.
"Thanks mom…" Kagome said.
Inuyasha quickly jumped into the nearest tree and took off unable to accept what he had just heard. Mean while both Kagome and Saya got in the car and drove off to the nearest Ramen shop. While they waited Kagome turned to her mother and asked, "How was work?"
"Fine, how was school?" Saya answered.
"Ok, I didn't do much in art because of a boring presentation and we got a block off in gym." Kagome replied.
"What about your academic classes?" Saya asked.
"Well we got a head in our class work so I took a nap in math and I copied down some notes in chem. Class." Kagome answered.
"Well at least I know your learning…thank you." Saya answered as the waiter placed their blows in front of them.
"Mom can I go out on Friday?" Kagome asked as she picked up her chop sticks.
"Where do you want to go and with who?" Saya answered as she began to eat.
"To a movie and dinner…I think it's a date." Kagome answered as she also began to eat.
"And who asked you to go on this date." Saya asked as she looked at her daughter.
"You don't know him and I don't know him that well…he's name is Naraku." Kagome answered truthfully.
"Will I get to meet him?" Saya asked.
"Of course." Kagome said.
"Good, then the answer is yes but I do not wan you home later then nine." Saya replied.
"Thanks mom." Kagome said.
After finishing their meal Saya and Kagome walked out and began to walk to the car. As Kagome took in a deep breath only to dump into a tall silver heard demon. 'He reminds me of Inuyasha.' She thought. "sorry." She said before walking off.
"That's alright." The emotionless voice replied.
After getting home Kagome took a bath and did most of her left over homework that Inuyasha hadn't let her finish. Once done Kagome turned on her lab top and opened the file where she had saved all of the information on the shikon no tama. 'If it's been created sine the feudal area then why hasn't any one tried to free Midoriku's soul?'
"Kagome lights out!" Saya's anger filled voice was heard.
"Ok mom." Kagome yelled as she turned of the lights and put some music on to sleep.
After spending most of the night tossing and turned Kagome was finally able to fall asleep. The next day Kagome woke up in a rush and ran to school. She had once again ignored her mother's calls and was not late to school. 'I am not getting detention again.' She thought as she changed into her hanyou form.
Mean while Inuyasha had suffered the same fate and was running to school when he picked up on a familiar scent. 'Emeri…no Kagome.' He thought as he fastened his speed to catch up to her. Inuyasha had managed to arrive just as Emeri place a barrier up and changed into Kagome. Inuyasha stepped out of the shadows and asked, "Kagome?"
At the sound of an unsuspected voice Kagome froze. 'Shit…no.' she thought as she turned to face who ever it was that had found her out. What she wasn't expecting to find was Inuyasha looking at her in confusion.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
"Cure to explain who the hell you are." Inuyasha growled in both disbelief and hurt.
"I can explain just place don't tell any one." Kagome answered.
"You have may word now start talking." He replied.
"ok but later cuz I can't be late again." Kagome said before running off to her first class.
That whole day Kagome had spent avoiding Inuyasha and hoping he would forget. But to her luck he did not so she wrote a note only telling him that she was in hiding and that it had to stay that way. After giving him the note after school she got a ride form Sango and staid inside. 'If mom finds out…she's going to kill me.' Kagome thought as she tried to relax. But just as she began to drift of into sleep the phone rang and she was forced to get out of bed. Once she had picked up the phone she said, "Hello?"
"Kagome?" a guy's voice was heard.
"Inuyasha?" she replied.
"Yeah, hey just to let you know I won't tell but I would like to know hwo and why your hiding." He said.
"Sorry but I'm making diner. Talk to you later." Kagome said before she hung up and unplugged the phone. 'Damn.' Was the last thing she thought before she passed out.
