Hey Guys! Well, sorry I haven't posted this yet, but I was being very lazy lately! Anyways, for those people who have asked, I haven't decided how long I'm gonna make this story. I've already done the first draft for the next three chapters, but I don't know if I should end it there. But, any-who, I don't own Inuyasha! Enjoy!

The Bet

Chapter Thirteen: Give Me The Money And I Won't Tell!

By: Candy2323

Oh Man, Kagome thought shuffling her legs again I gotta pee! Looking around to see if there was any quick escape to the bathroom, she signed. There was none. Why was school so damn crowded? Looking to the right of the bench she was on, she saw Sango on Miroku's lap whispering and giggling with him. They've been like that ever since they talked at the mall! Looking to the left, she saw Inuyasha in sitting next to her lost in thought. Again, her bladder gave sign that it needed to be emptied. Before anyone on the bench knew, Kagome had taken off toward the inside of the school in search of the bathroom. Too bad she still didn't know her way around. Too bad that Kikyo was watching her and had walked off to where she had ran.

Blinking, Inuyasha realized there was no warmth beside him where Kagome was. Looking around he noticed that Kagome was no where near. He saw Sango and Miroku also start looking around for her.

"Where is she," Sango questioned looking at Inuyasha.

"Feh, I don't know."

"Well, were you not paying attention when she left?"

"Were you," he replied sarcastically.

"Shut-up. I'm gonna go find her."

"She'll come back," Miroku said grabbing her arm and positioning her back onto his lap, "She probably saw one of her friends or had to talk to a teacher or something, Don't worry so much." Sango seemed a little reassured so she and Miroku went back to what they were doing earlier. Inuyasha saw some of his friends and went to go chill with them.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh damn, I knew I should've taken Sango with me, Kagome thought. The bathroom downstairs was too crowded and she knew that there was one upstairs. The only problem was where upstairs. There seemed like endless amounts of hallways and classroom doors, yet none of which said "bathroom" on them. And another five minutes of searched seemed, to her, would be fruitless. She be laughed out of the school as the girl who wet her pants on the second week!

Searching down another long hallway, she finally came to the bathroom. Dashing into it, she never saw Kikyo watched and following, an evil glint in her brown eyes.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Yo, man Inuyasha, been a while," a young man with brown hair and blue eyes said. He raise his arms and did several hand movements with Inuyasha. "Oh, man did you hear about the new girl?"

"Which new girl, Kiko?"

"You know, the one from Japan."

"Well as a matter of fact, I-."

"I heard the she was kicked out for being too slutty."

"Oh yeah," another boy interjected, "Well I heard that her village was under attack thanks to her and she had to leave before she got them killed."

"Well, I heard that she was pregnant and she left because she didn't want the father to know about the baby."

The rumors went on and on. All some crazy story like Kagome was a demon who started raiding villages and eating small children.

"I heard that she is going to the dance with Inuyasha," one guy said. That got Inuyasha attention, as well as everyone else in the groups. They all turned and looked at him.

"So what if I'm taking her," he said looking at her, "After all how could she say no to this." All the guys laughed and started crowding around him slapping him on the back for congratulations or asking if she is really as fine as some people say she is.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Flushing the toilet, Kagome walked out of the stall and began to wash her hands. Feeling someone's eyes on her, she turned and saw Kikyo shutting the bathroom door and locking it.

"Well well well, look who it is. Little miss Kagome. I heard that you got Inuyasha to go to the dance with you."

"So what if I did."

"I'm quite sure that he doesn't know about the bet that we made, aren't you."

"That bet doesn't even count anymore!"

"Oh yes it does."

"What do you want Kikyo?"

"I have a little proposition for you."

"Whatever it is, I won't be blackmailed into doing it!"

"I'm definitely sure that you will be." Walking up to Kagome, Kikyo looked at her then smiled. She whispered so softly that if Kagome hadn't been listening, she would've never heard the words "give me one hundred dollars and I won't tell him." Her eyes widened as she saw Kikyo begin to chuckle.

"ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS! THE BET WAS FOR ONLY FIFTY!"

"A small price to pay to be with Inuyasha, right."

"NO!"

"Why not? Do you really not care about him?"

"Yes I do care, but I will NOT be blackmailed!"

"You have no choice. I mean what is a hundred dollars when you can have him. Once I get my money, I promise I won't interfere with you both."

"No!"

"Fine then," she said smugly, "I'll just go tell him now." She started toward the bathroom door and unlocked it before Kagome grabbed her and pull her back.

"Fine, I'll give you the money."

"Alright. Bring it on the night of the dance. That's in one week."

"I know, I can count."

"Hn, I will come and get you. You give it to me and walk away and we never bother each other again. Deal," she said holding out her hand.

A moment paused before Kagome grabbed Kikyo's and shook saying "Deal."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Walking out of school rather disturbed, Kagome headed for the bench that she once occupied. The others had all left. Why would Kikyo do that? She lost that stupid bet! Do I really like Inuyasha or was all of this just because I wanted to win fifty dollars. Now I've gotta give Kikyo one hundred dollars or else she'll tell him abut the bet. He'll definitely think the only reason I dated him was to win some money, but it wasn't, right. I do know that I've got feeling for him, but what are they? I wish my dad was here, he'd know what to do. A tear slipped down Kagome's face. What was she going to do?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Inuyasha saw Kagome one a bench all alone so he decided to give her some company. Her head was hanging down and she looked lost in thought. Then he saw it, a small crystalline tears fall down her cheek and onto the ground. Walking toward her, he sat down.

"Wanna talk about it?"

"No."

"Alright, but remember, I'm here if you do," he said standing up. He felt Kagome get up and well, but was shocked when she burying herself into his chest, crying. He did the only thing he could think of, he put his arms around her and started rubbing her back, trying to make her feel better.

Well, what did you guys think? Enjoy? Don't forget to R&R! The next chapter is gonna be on the dance night! I don't think it'll take me too long to get that chapter out.

But, who knows. Thanks! Bye!
