The original story "Inuyasha" and the original characters do not belong to me. They belong to Rumiko Takahashi. I'm not being paid, so please don't sue! The characters that I have created belong to me, however.
Author's Notes: Thank you for the positive reviews ^.^ I will try to make this one better, but I'm going to use a little more Japanese terms. Please, read and enjoy!

A School Story:
~*~
Chapter Two: Following
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kagome walked towards the big gray building she called 'high school.' She stared at the cars that drove by, teachers and her fellow students coming out. A blue car pulled up, and Naomi stepped out.
"Kagome-chan! Hey, good morning!" Naomi grinned, and slapped Kagome playfully on the back. "What's up?"
"Oh nothing much," Kagome replied, "I'm just half asleep." She laughed uneasily.
"You know you really missed out on Saturday when you didn't come with us to the party. It was super cool." Naomi smiled, "You should have seen the Virgin Margarita Sheri-chan drunk, it was like this...no, more like this, big!" She exaggerated the size with her hands, like a fisherman bragging about a catch.
"Ah really? I'll make sure I ask. Did Naoko go like she said she would?" Kagome began to become inquisitive. Naoko's mother was the school's principal, and she had told Naoko that she was not allowed to go. Studying was what her mother obsessed about, especially because her eldest, Etsuko, was a genius.
Kagome remembered a time when Naoko's mother frankly said "I'd you'd apply your studies like your makeup, you'd be a genius, Naoko." Even though she teased or insulted her, Naoko's mother loved her daughter. Some people learned that the hard way.
"Yeah, she went. Stupid bitch. She was so damn drunk; she danced on the table like one of those American flappers. I was dying for her to fall off, flat on her face." Naomi chuckled to herself, imagining that fake blonde falling on her face. Grin.
"Yeah, it would be entertaining. I couldn't go because I had to watch Sota. It can be such a pain sometimes." Kagome looked around at all the dozens of students. She was actually looking for Sheri, and Sheri was incredibly hard to miss. She was the only Japanese-African in the whole school.
Sheri called herself Japanese-African because she was an African living in Japan. She claimed that Kagome or Naomi would be Japanese-African if they had moved to Africa. This confused Naoko, who had been listening in on the conversation. She had ears better than a bat.
Kagome looked around continually, but Sheri was no place to be found.
"If you're looking for Sheri-chan, she got sick from that Virgin Margarita. It was so funny! She finished it and puked all over this hot waiter, he was *so* grossed out. Well, I mean, anything about Sheri could gross anybody out. Like, she had like eighteen different things wrong with her outfit that night." A chirpy voice said. Naomi and Kagome turned around to see Naoko and her gang of twinkies behind her.
"Oh." Naomi snorted, an extreme look of dissatisfaction on her face, "I thought you went and died someplace. Oop! Guess not."
Naoko gave off a really stupid looking glare (which her clique copied) and stormed off. Katsuaki was waiting off in the distance. He waved and yelled: "Hey Kagome-chan! Good morning!" Kagome's cheeks turned a noticeable scarlet, and smiled at him sheepishly. Naoko glared again, much more menacing than before.
Naomi laughed when Naoko and Katsuaki were out of earshot. "Ooooo! Someone's got a crush! How very kawaii!" *grin*
Kagome coughed. "I don't like-like him. He's just cute that's all. I don't have the time, or the desire, for men right now."
"Oh wow. 'Men' is waaaaaaaaay to strong of a word right now. I was thinking 'immature jerks' would be more suitable." Naomi smiled at her friend and held open the school door. "Ladies first!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Damnit! Inuyasha, why did you have to be so rude?" Shippou snapped, folding his little arms across his chest.
"Shut up you little fox brat." Inuyasha muttered in response. Everyone always got mad at him. It wasn't *always* his fault. It's not like Kagome wasn't annoying or bitchy. She complained too! All he wanted to know was what the hell Kagome stuffed into that oversized bag of hers. He found a tampon thing. He wanted to know what it did, so he opened the box and took it out. So what? He didn't use the damned thing!
By reading the directions, he and Miroku figured it was used for the 'minestrone' cycle. Not a pleasuring device. Then why was she ashamed and angry?
"Miroku, it was 'minestrone'? Right?" Inuyasha pondered. Had he read correctly?
"Yes, I believe so, but right now I could care less what it was called. Right now, I'm curious to know if Kagome-sama will ever come back to us. Going through her stuff. I can't *believe* you'd do that!" Miroku groaned, stretching his legs out across the grass they had been lounging on.
"Like you didn't touch anything? You were looking at those girls in that funny book like you wanted to rip off their clothes. Hentai." Inuyasha snorted. "At least I won't hear that fucking word 'sit' for a while."
Sango looked over at him and just rolled her eyes. She tried distracted herself by focusing on watching Kirara snooze in the afternoon sun. A gorgeous butterfly landed on Kirara's little ear and it twitched. Sango smiled. At least someone was having an enjoyable time.
"Oh well. She'll be back soon." She replied, letting out a loud sigh.
"It doesn't matter to me if she doesn't return. I know I sure won't miss Kagome." Inuyasha growled, meddling with the violet prayer beads that dangled around his neck. "I know I won't."
Miroku looked over at him and scowled. "Inuyasha you show very little gratitude. You're very lucky to have Kagome-sama with you. A woman is to be appreciated, not abused. They are like flowers, they need to be cared for and admired."
Inuyasha looked totally confused and muttered something about perverts; Sango just gave an embarrassed and nervous smile. "Uhhh...that's exactly it." she replied.
"I want Kagome to come back. It's not fun without her!" Shippou whined, yet again. "I'm not speaking to Inuyasha until Kagome comes back!"
"Promise?" Inuyasha growled, staring directly at Shippou who gulped nervously in response.
"I'm going to go take a bath. There's a hot spring over there." Sango glanced at Miroku as she said this. He met her gaze and smiled plainly. She trotted off, and Kirara woke up and bounced after her.
"I think I'll go find some firewood...for dinner." Miroku lied, giving off a phony serious look. He walked off in the direction Sango had gone.
"Stupid pervert." Inuyasha grumbled, noticing that Shippou had left as well. Inuyasha was all-alone.
He tugged on the prayer beads yet again, but they just glowed vibrantly and stayed around his neck. He groaned in annoyance.
Maybe it wasn't such a good thing Kagome was gone. If she were here, Miroku probably wouldn't have went to peep on Sango because Kagome would be taking a bath as well. Miroku wouldn't dare peep on Kagome anymore because he was under the impression that Inuyasha had secret undying feelings for Kagome. Inuyasha had recalled that conversation many times. He was beginning to wonder if he really did have secret feelings, being unknown to even himself.
Inuyasha's dog-ears perked up hearing a 'You sickko!' and a loud 'Thonk!' He chuckled to himself picturing an unconscious Miroku with a lump on his head. That baka.
Inuyasha pondered for a moment, wanting to know if Miroku was right about women. He had to admit that Kagome was quite beautiful (despite how he denied it) and he found himself occasionally admiring her. He didn't think he cared about her in *that* way, and he knew she didn't love him. She probably didn't even like him.
'Love' was a strong word with a lot of meaning. If you tell someone you love him or her, Inuyasha believed that you were giving them a promise. A gift you could never take back. That's why he was afraid to tell Kikyo that he loved her even though he did.
I wonder if Miroku would really actually love someone, He thought
Inuyasha stood up, wondering why he was willing to apologize all of a sudden.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Alright," Miss Kobayashi's voice echoed throughout the school, "This announcement is for those of you who think it's funny to smear lipstick across the gym windows. You're grounded. Thank you, kids. Enjoy the rest of your second period."
Naoko (who was in four of Kagome's six classes) whined. "Mommy! That's not fair!"
Kagome rolled her eyes. Naoko always complained about anything that didn't go her *exact* way. Her family was incredibly well off, so she was used to the Princess Treatment.
"I can't *believe* she'd ground me! That's NOT fair!" Naoko wailed like a giant baby. Her group of friends hugged her and cried too.
"What a bunch of losers..." Naomi whispered to Kagome. Naomi was busily sewing the stuffed teddy bear she intended to give to her brother. "Kenji will love it," She had said.
Kagome nodded in immediate response and continued to sew the white doggy ears onto her puppy plush. It was cuddly and cute, with little black beady eyes and an embroidered mouth. She was going to give it whiskers, but decided not to. She wanted to give to Inuyasha. Shippou might chew on the whiskers.
"So," Naomi stuck the pin on a magnet and bit the string, "Whatcha doin' on Friday?"
"That's kind of a long way off!" Kagome laughed, "It's only Monday second period."
"Well, still I wanna know!"
"I think...I need to apologize to someone..." Kagome replied.
"Really? Who?" Naomi began sewing again, much faster than last time.
"Just some...guy I know. We got into an argument. That's all." Kagome sighed. Why didn't he ever actually apologize? He only said 'Sorry' once, and it was definitely not a serious apology.
"Oooo!" Naoko teased, "Your boyfriend? I'd be surprised if you had one!"
Naomi and Kagome turned around and glared Naoko down.
"Oh shut up, you twinky." Naomi scoffed, and continued sewing. Naoko stuck out her tongue, and Naomi grinned. "You'd better not stick that out. A crow will fly by and crap on it."
Naoko snorted, "Brat." and turned around.
"Oh well, not everyone is mentally sound." Kagome replied, focusing back on Inuyasha.
I wonder... She thought to herself,
"Ok students," Ms Yamada smiled, and clapped her hands. "Time to clean up your projects. We have five minutes until 3rd period.
"She thinks we're in third grade. She's a ditz!" Naomi stuffed her bear into a plastic bag.
"I know," Kagome replied. She looked at the little white plush dog. It stared back at her with a playful grin. It had a cute little tongue hanging out. She smiled. It was so adorable, probably her best handiwork. She knew Inuyasha would have absolutely no use for it, but it was the thought that counts.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Where did Inuyasha go?" Sango walked around puzzled, along with Miroku.
"I haven't the slightest idea, Sango." He replied, scanning the treetops. Inuyasha might have been sitting there. Nope. Nothing.
"He went after Kagome-sama," A little voice said, Sango and Miroku looked around. A small figure hopped onto Sango's shoulder. Myoga.
"Really? He did?" She asked, putting her finger between Myoga and her neck.
"Yes," He replied, sitting down and folding his miniscule arms, "He suddenly decided and ran off; jumping into the well."
"How is going to hold up in Kagome-sama's Realm?" Miroku asked, "I'm willing to bet that no body else has dog-ears and dresses like he does there. Look at Kagome-sama."
"Oh no..." Sango moaned. "I really hope everything works out..."
