Creep-Kagome/Juromaru: Weird, I know but it is hardly ever done. By the way, this takes place in the present day.

He was in the hallway looking at her. She was beautiful and kind, but she would never be his. He didn't understand why. Perhaps it was because he was mute. Him being mute made him have no confidence. Not to mention how he looked scared many people away. It was no wonder he never met her eye.

When you were here before

Couldn't look you in the eye

You're just like an angel

Your skin makes me cry

He looked at her as she ran. She was graceful and she gave it her all. It was no wonder she was one of the most popular girls in the school, and with a boy friend that was just as popular. His name had been Inuyasha Taisho, the second son of Touga Taisho. He was arrogant and rude but also two faced. He seemed a decent guy in front of Kagome, but behind her back he was a bully, and he happened to be the one on the end of that bullying. He hated it.

You float like a feather

In a beautiful world

I wish I was special

You're so fucking special

He didn't know what he did to deserve the name calling. They were calling him a creep and a weird as they punched him repeatedly in the stomach and face. It was Inuyasha and his lackies, minus one. He was the ever sensible but perverted Miroku. He was dating a chick named Sango and had a tendency to grope Sango and only Sango. He would never cheat on Sango, unlike Inuyasha, who was cheating on Kagome with a girl at another school by the name of Kikyo. He knew this because he had seen them necking at a park a day after school. He had told her he was at practice late. It was a lie.

"Inuyasha, what are you doing?" A voice asked. It was her. The girl he had a crush on for as long as he could remember. "Stop that this instant." She ran up to see them holding him up by the arms and blood trickling down his lip. "Let him go." They dropped him and walked away. "Are you alright, Juromaru-kun?" She pulled out a handkerchief and started to clean away the blood. She took special care to him and soon it was done. "There." She stood and helped him up. He looked into her eyes but looked down again. He could never meet her eye.

But I 'm a creep

I 'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here

He got used to the beatings. It didn't hurt so much anymore, especially when it was Kagome that had helped him afterwards. But he had wished that there was more to it, but there wouldn't ever be more between them. He shouldn't get his hopes up. He could try to change himself, but even then he wouldn't know if that would work.

I don't care if it hurts

I want to have control

I want a perfect body

I want a perfect soul

He was sick now and unable to go to school. He wondered if she noticed he wasn't there. Probably not. No one cared about him but his brother, Kageromaru. He highly doubted she noticed. He couldn't speak to her anyways. He was born unable to speak. The doctors had said his voice box was not fully developed and wouldn't further develop. He coughed again but no sound came. His throat was sore and his nose was runny and his head was hurting him greatly. He groaned silently and looked to his door when his brother walked in. Behind his brother, whose growth was stunted because he was born several months premature, was Kagome. She seemed to have something for him.

"This should help you." She placed down a bag and inside was things for herbal tea and other things. "I hope you get better." She bowed and turned before leaving.

I want you to notice

When I'm not around

You're so fucking special

I wish I was special

He stood behind a tree watching Inuyasha make out with the Kikyo chick. He could see Kagome approaching. He wanted to stop her but couldn't.

But I'm a creepI'm a weirdoWhat the hell am I doing here?I don't belong here

She watched her boyfriend make out with her own cousin. Tears came to her eyes and she turned before running off. She couldn't face this anymore. She knew something was wrong when he stopped spending so much time with her, but she never expected this.

She's running out again

She's running out

She run, run, run run

Run

He still had her handkerchief. He had washed it by hand until all the blood was gone and it was again a pristine white. He folded it neatly and stuck it in his left breast pocket for safe keeping. It was close to his heart. He couldn't help it. She was always so nice to him and she seemed to be the only one to notice him. He wanted to give her everything, but couldn't. He didn't know how to give her everything. He couldn't even show her how he felt. He wanted her to know how he felt.

Whatever makes you happy

Whatever you want

You're so fucking special

I wish I was special

He decided that since he couldn't speak to her, he would show her, so he walked up to her after class and looked her in the eye. She seemed confused but soon he leaned down and kissed her. He took her hand and placed it over his heart, where her handkerchief was. He pulled back and caressed her cheek with his free hand, trying so hard to tell her how he felt. She just smiled. "I never saw you as a creep or a weirdo."

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here

I don't belong here
