Disclaimer: InuYasha doesn't belong to me. The only character that does belong to me is Shijisha. Not that I'm proud of her, or anything… _
A/N: It has been a really long time since I've updated this story. I'll try to get as much done as I can in one day, so maybe I can put up more than one chapter. Probably not today, though. Anyway, listening to The Pillows (hey FLCL fans!) has gotten me in the mood for writing this story. Hopefully I've gotten over my writers block!
Chapter 2: Hatred, or…Not?
"Bastard."
InuYasha was still pissed at Koga. His fists still clenched, his eyebrows still furrowed, his eyes still dangerous, he walked through the hall.
"I swear, I will kill that guy!" InuYasha growled. "Run away with his little girlfriend, will he? What a coward."
Finally, InuYasha got to his destination. He looked at the numbers on the lockers, then went to one and opened the lock.
He smirked. Now it's time to liven this up a bit, he thought, bringing out posters and pictures galore of all his favorite bands.

Five minutes later:
"Um, Koga?" Kagome asked timidly, still hanging her arm loosely through his.
"Yes, darling?" Koga replied sweetly.
"Well, I'd like to get to my class now."
"Yes, of course," he said, smiling. "Let me see your schedule, and I'll take you right there."
Kagome naively handed him her schedule. Anything to get away from him, she thought, rolling her eyes.
"Hmm," Koga said, memorizing the schedule. "Alright, you have Geometry first. We're pretty close now."
Thank God! she thought, even though math was her least favorite class.
They stopped at a classroom. Koga let Kagome's arm drop, but grabbed her hand again.
"Goodbye, sweet freshman," he said mushily, kissing her hand.
How cheesy! Kagome let a less-than-amused expression enter her face.
"Would you care to join me for lunch?" Koga asked, once again pouring on the charm.
"We'll see," Kagome said with a slight smile. Yeah, right.
As Koga left, Kagome walked into the empty classroom.
~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~
"Oh my God! Shijisha, his locker's right next to mine!"
"Jeez, Kikyo. Will you calm down? He's only a freshman…"
"At least he's not a 5th grader…"
"Hey! There was no need to bring that up!"
Kikyo walked over to her locker.
"Hey, nice locker," she said, trying to sound seductive.
InuYasha turned to look at the girl next to him. Was she trying to come on to him?
Then he saw her expression, her tone, and her clothes. They were enough to make him laugh.
And he did.
"Hey! Why are you laughing?" Kikyo asked, offended.
InuYasha continued to laugh while he slammed his locker and walked to his next class: Geometry.
~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~
Kagome sat in a desk in the empty Geometry class, looking out the window. She had a dreamy look in her eyes.
Tall, dark, handsome, sensitive, sweet, thoughtful, funny. Yeah. That's the perfect one…
Then she continued to dream of that perfect guy, walking through the door, taking her in his arms, and proclaiming his love to her…
Then InuYasha, walked in, still chuckling at the geek he just met.
When he saw who was in the room, his face turned dark again.
"What, your boyfriend's not following you around anymore?" InuYasha asked spitefully.
Kagome, finally snapped out of her reverie, and looked at him with angry eyes.
"He is not my boyfriend."
"Really? Could have fooled me," InuYasha scoffed, sitting down at the desk farthest away from her. He leaned back, with his feet up. "The way you took his arm, I thought you two were hookin' up."
Kagome stared at InuYasha with disbelief.
"I only just met him," she whispered, glaring at InuYasha.
"Oh? Then why did you decide to 'take a tour' with him?" he said, leaning forward, a smirk on his face. "Maybe it was a tour of him…"
Kagome, comprehending what he just said, stared at him in disbelief. Then she jumped up, cheeks flushed in anger, and somehow got only a few inches in front of InuYasha's face, all in a blink of an eye.
"I AM NOT THAT KIND OF GIRL!!!" Kagome screamed. "IF YOU HAD HALF-A-BRAIN, THEN YOU WOULD KNOW THAT!!!"
InuYasha and Kagome stayed like that for a while, glaring into each other's eyes.
RRRRIIIINNNNNGGGGG
"Saved by the bell, jerk," Kagome whispered, never looking away from InuYasha's amber eyes.
"You've got it backwards, bitch," he retorted.
Finally, they broke the staring contest, just before the students all came flooding in.
~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~
"Ugh…finally! Lunch!" Kagome sighed, putting her folder into her backpack.
After Geometry, Kagome had SYAO, a class for the smarter students. All the students joked that the letters stood for "Study Your Ass Off," which was what the students in that class had to do. Just now, Kagome had finished with history.
Nothing much happened during the morning classes. All the teachers were boring, strict, and gave the class tons of homework. Kagome didn't complain, though. Or at least, she wouldn't have, if InuYasha hadn't been in every single one of her classes…
"What an ass," Kagome said, as she glared at InuYasha, and he glared back. Once again, they were the only two people in the classroom.
They were both walking towards the door, but seeing the other going at the same time, they stopped where they stood, staring at each other with intense hatred. They stayed like that for a few minutes, each waiting for the other to leave first. Finally, Kagome broke their second battle-of-the-stares of the day, threw the door open, and stormed out.
InuYasha watched as Kagome walked out. Feh. Bitch. I can't believe I thought she was cute this morning, he thought. Immediately afterward, he blushed.
Why the fuck am I blushing?!
Trying to get away from his thoughts, InuYasha walked out of the classroom and into the cafeteria.
"I'm in heaven," he muttered, looking around admiringly at all the different little places to get food.
There were tons of fast food restaurants around, including McDonalds, Burger King, and just about any other chain you could think of. He even saw a little Japanese restaurant.
As his stomach was growling , so he decided to get his favorite food…
"Ramen, please," InuYasha told the worker at the Japanese place.
Now, immensely happy, InuYasha walked to an empty table and slurped up his ramen in nearly 10 seconds.
InuYasha smiled, his bowl of ramen half full. Now nothing could ruin his day, not even if…
"Oh, look boys," said a voice from behind InuYasha. "Our little friend's back."
~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~
Kagome stood in line at Pizza Hut, still fuming about what InuYasha said to her that morning.
"Really? Could have fooled me…The way you took his arm, I thought you two were hookin' up."
How dare he think that she would sleep with Koga, just because he was an upper-class-man? How dare he even think she was that way? She wouldn't hook up with anybody, especially Koga.
"What an ass," Kagome hissed, still angry.
The dark-haired boy in front of Kagome turned around to looked back at her.
"Why, thank you! I do try to take care of it…" he said, smiling and patting his butt.
Kagome blushed. "Oh my gosh! I didn't…I mean…"
The boy laughed.
"It's ok, I was just joking. My name's Miroku," he said, holding out his hand.
"Um…I'm Kagome," she said, still blushing. She let him grab her hand, and they shook. What is with all these weird boys?! she thought.
Only then did she get a good look at this boy. His hair was in a small, black pony tail, and he wore gold hoop earrings. He had a charming, perfect smile, and kind, joking brown eyes. He wore a dark blue button up shirt, cargo shorts, and sandals. Overall, he had a kick-back attitude, which Kagome found very appealing.
"Are you a freshman, Lady Kagome? I don't believe I've seen you around here," Miroku asked.
"Yes, I am. But please, just call me Kagome," she said sweetly. "What grade are you in?"
"I'm a Junior, and so is Koga," Miroku said slyly.
"Oh, no! Not you too! I swear, I don't even like him!" Kagome said, exasperated.
"Once again, Kagome, I am joking," Miroku had a twinkle in his eye. "Would you like to sit with me?"
"Sure," he and Kagome got there food, and walked to a table with four other people sitting at it.
"Hey Miroku," the group already sitting said.
"Hey guys, this is Kagome," he said indicating the younger girl standing next to him. "Kagome, this is Sango Miharu (he pointed to a girl all dressed in black), and Ichiro Watanabe (the boy next to her), they're both Sophomores. Then Keisuke and Daisuke Mitsuwa, the twins, are Juniors."
"Um…hi," Kagome said, timidly.
Soon after, Kagome felt extremely relieved that she hadn't seen Koga yet…
~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~ ** ~~~
Recognizing the voice, InuYasha turned and glared at Koga.
"What do you want, prep?"
"I just wanted to settle this little thing you started this morning," he said, smirking.
"Get the fuck away," InuYasha said, already getting angry.
"Why? You intimidated? Not feelin' as tough as you were this morning? That's alright. I'm sure with a few good smacks to the head, you'll feel just fine," Koga said, grabbing InuYasha by the collar.
"For the last time, get your fucking hands off of me," InuYasha growled, eyes becoming dangerous again.
"What if I don't feel like it?" Koga asked, raising his right fist in the air.
Kagome saw all this from across the room, which was where she sat with Miroku. She wasn't sure that she wanted to stop it this time. After all, I don't really like either of them, so if they beat each other up, they'll be out of my way, right? she thought.
Then, her conscious intervened…
Damn it! I can't believe I'm doing this…
Without warning, Kagome got up from the table, walked over to InuYasha and Koga, and said, "I believe he asked you to stop."
Koga, very much surprised, stared at Kagome. So did InuYasha.
Why the hell is she saving me? InuYasha wondered. I thought she hated me…
Koga, convinced by Kagome's stern eyes, let go of InuYasha, and smiled.
"Kagome, would you care to join me for lunch?"
"No, thanks," she replied, coldly. "I don't aspire to be in the presence of a barbarian. Besides, I've got my own friends to sit with."
She tossed her head and walked back to her table, leaving the entire cafeteria to stare at the girl who had just stopped two fights in one day.
I don't get that girl, InuYasha thought. Does she hate me, or not?

A/N: Not great, but I think it was a lot better than the last chapter. But, if you think differently, then feel free to review!
Name Translations:
Miharu (Sango)- Stand Guard/Watch. This actually has no meaning in regards to Sango, but I just randomly picked this word from my dictionary.
The rest of the names are just names I've heard off of Japanese TV. ^_^
