Kagome changed quickly and took a long shower. After that and drying and dressing she made her way down the stairs. Just in time to greet her brother and two of his friends.
"Hey, 'Gome, we're working on a project together, would ya mind helping us?" Souta said, grinning childishly at his sister. His friends doing the same.
"Sure! What's it about?" Kagome asked, grinning back at them.
"Water..." Kagome raised a brow and shot them a stern look, "... balloons..."
"That's what I thought. So, how are we going to start this little project of yours?" Kagome grinned at them again and walked over the the tap in the kitchen.
"Uhh, we have no idea..." Souta laughed nervously and looked around.
"When's it due?"
"Err," One of his friends started.
"Tomorrow..." The other finished.
Kagome growled and glared at them. "So you want me to do all of the work while you get the credit, huh?" They nodded their heads slowly and looked away. "Shit-faces..." Kagome cursed, not a very common thing for her.
The three laughed nervously and turned to walk away. Kagome's growl of anger stopped and and they looked back at her slowly. Her eye was twitching and she glared at them angrily.
"Get your butts over here!" She snapped, turning and walking over to the sink.
She was burning angry but she just couldn't let her brother fail a project, no matter the time limit on it left. Glaring at them the whole time, they started the project but eventually the other boys had to go home and they did leaving Kagome and Souta to do the rest.
Souta fell asleep not long after his friends left, he slumped against the bathroom wall of Kagome's suite and snored loudly; Kagome tuned him out and continued working on the report and structure of it all.
By the time she was done with the whole project, it was almost five in the morning. With an annoyed sigh, Kagome dragged her younger brother over to her bed, him being too heavy to pull all the way to his own room, she finally got him on the bed and panted. She changed her clothes in the bathroom and headed to her brothers room.
She wiggled her noes in disgust upon entering, it was a complete mess of clothes and junk food and papers and electronics. Groaning in annoyance she walked out of the room and angrily walked into her fathers. He lay snoring half under and half over the covers. She glared at him angrily, muttering about snoring men.
Kagome walked over to his bed and slid in the other side. With a yawn she drifted off to sleep. After what felt like two seconds, though was actually two hours, an alarm shot off through out the room. Tai stirred and yawned while reaching over and hitting the snooze button. Kagome whined and used her feet to shove him off the bed. Tai yelped as he hit the ground with a loud thud.
"What the..." He cried and jumped up, fully awake now. He blinked at seeing Kagome's angry gaze. "Umm, 'Gome, why are you in my bed?"
"Souta's in mine, his room is a mess, I'm not sleeping there nor the couch, now get out and go lay on the couch, if you want; or in the air, either works for me." Kagome said, turning and snuggling into the covers.
Tai laughed when she told him to leave his own room. He shook his head and walked into his personal master bathroom. He took a quick shower and dried his hair fully, dressing in a black suit and walking down to make some tea. He entered the kitchen and heard a annoyed yell followed quickly by a crash, Tai laughed evilly before sighing and writing 'Alarm Clock' on the shopping list.
He heard Souta stumbling from Kagome's room and to his. He smiled and sipped his tea, coffee tasted horrible and left a bad smell in the mouth, tea would be what he preferred any day. He heard Kikyo's loud and angry mumbling and smirked as she stumbled tiredly down the stairs.
A car horn was heard loudly for a few seconds before stopping, Kikyo sneered at the door and direction the car should be down the stairs. She slammed the door shut when she left and he saw her glaring at the sky and she stomped to the car.
Souta came down a few minutes later and greeted his father cheerfully and fixed himself a bowl of cereal. Sitting down and talking about random stuff to Tai, who continued to read the newspaper and do his best to make random sounds to show he was 'listening' to Souta.
After eating, Souta said his goodbye and left with his project and friends to school.
Tai looked up at the stairs when Kagome didn't show, with a soft sigh, he stood and made his way back up to his room. Walking in, he knelt beside Kagome and shook her gently.
"Mmm... go away..." She muttered, turning around and hugging the sheets to herself.
Tai sighed and yanked the sheets off, gaining a cry of "No!" from his daughter, he carried her over his shoulder and set her on her bathroom counter, closing and locking the door and standing guard outside. After a series of angry yells, Tai heard the shower go on. Minutes passed and he heard the shower go off and Kagome step out.
"Uhh, daddy?" Kagome called, unlocking and opening the door slightly.
Tai turned his head away from the window, "Yes?" he asked, smiling at her.
"Can you get my uniform?" She asked, smiling back at him warmly.
"Sure!" He stood and walked to her closet, opening it and looking at the clothes. Taking the sailors uniform, he opened one of the drawers of her dresser and and grabbed her undergarments. Walking back to her, he lay them on the table and closed the door.
"Thanks!" Kagome cried from inside and quickly dressed, her hair was dry because of her miko powers. Tying it in a mid-high ponytail, she ran out of the bathroom and grabbed her bag as she left.
"Come on or we'll both be late." Tai said, walking out the door quickly. Kagome grabbed her things and put them on, hurrying after him.
"Both?" She asked, quickly following him.
"It's your second period, darling, I have to go to work." Tai replied, Kagome cheered inwardly and quickly got in the car. They drove to her school and Kagome said goodbye as her father sped off.
She decided to skip classes and walked to her favourite spot by the trees. Spring had come early which shocked everyone a lot. It was a high twenty degrees today and sunny with a clear blue sky. Sitting down, Kagome took out her sketch pad and began drawing her professor, Naraku.
The day passed by quickly, Kagome drew different poses of Naraku and pencil coloured them in, grinning when finished. Deciding she needed to at least go to one class, Kagome packed her things and went to her last class, advanced science. The bell had just rung and she entered the room slowly. Her friends faces lit up at seeing her and they all immediately exchanged greetings.
Class went by quickly and Kagome thanked the Kami's over and over that Naraku didn't once pick on her today. She hoped to get out before anything could happen. But it seemed, that all the Kami's weren't all on her side today.
"Higurashi, stay after class." Naraku's cold voice said just before the bell rang. Kagome paled and flinched as she turned her gaze to the ground than at him slowly. Nodding quickly, she gulped when he closed the door after the last student.
Kagome had slowly walked to his desk and stood there waiting for him. Naraku walked over and sat down calmly, looking at her from behind the desk with a raised brow.
"Well...?" He asked, lifting his hand to her.
Kagome blinked stupidly, "Well... what?" She asked, tilting her head to the left and looking at his hand curiously.
"Where is the history and science paper?" He growled, glaring at her. Kagome gasped and paled down to a chalk white.
"Uhh, well, you see... I..." Kagome stuttered, looking around nervously.
"You didn't finish it did you?" He said, looking at her lazily. Kagome looked down and nodded sadly. "Just give me what you finished so far."
Kagome nodded again and handed him the two papers. Naraku took them and dismissed her, turning to the papers. Kagome stood there watching as he read them over and sighed in annoyance.
"You're not leaving?" He muttered, not looking at her. Kagome shifted a little and swallowed. "You want your phone back, I believe?" He looked at her with a raised brow. Nod.
He sighed and opened one of his desk drawers, digging through it. He pulled out her phone and held it out to her. Kagome reached for it but he pulled his hand back quickly. Smirking at her, he stood and walked towards the door.
"I think the principle would love a new phone, don't you?" He said, inspecting the phone with a critical eye. Kagome paled and ran over to him.
"You can't give him the phone!" She cried, biting her lip and glancing from the phone to the door frantically.
He chuckled softly to himself, "I believe, Principle Ryuukotsusei would love it." He replied, smirking darkly at her and walking out the door quickly.
Kagome whimpered and ran after him, his speed incredibly fast because of his linage. Kagome panted as she ran after him. He stopped in front of the office door and quickly walked into Ryuu's 'House of Doom', not an odd name considering how strict he was. But he was very playful and teased a lot, but only his close friends.
Kagome ran after him and gulped when she saw him handing her phone to Ryuu. Ryuu took it and smirked as he inspected it. "Nice phone, nay, 'Raku?" He muttered, his deep voice booming throughout the room softly.
"Wait..." Kagome whined and glared at them both darkly, they looked at her calmly and she growled evilly at them. "Gimme back my phone!"
Ryuu barked a laugh and waved it teasingly in the air. "Come get it, darling," He teased, smirking at her. Kagome's eye twitched and she pounced on him, Ryuu let out a yelp and fell backwards, clearly not prepared for that.
Kagome grabbed the phone quickly and turned and bolted out the door, running out and into the parking lot where Sugimi stood leaning against his car.
"There you are! Where were you this morning?" Sugimi asked as he opened the door for her.
Kagome paused beside the door beside his drivers door, she glared at him and pouted slightly. "Sleeping!" She growled and slid into the car beside Inuyasha, the door closing beside her.
Sugimi got in and backed out of the parking lot, Sesshomaru glanced at Kagome and nodded his greeting, Kagome nodded back and turned her gaze to her phone. She quickly went to what she was writing last time and her eyes widened while her jaw dropped at what was written at the end.
Dear Higurashi,
You shouldn't be so gloomy, Kagome. It doesn't fit you. Your too shy and nice too be sad and gloomy; fix that and come talk to me. Remember this... MUHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Yours truly,
Naraku...
