It's What's Inside That Counts

Chapter 6: Library Trip
Kagome woke up and screamed, shocked to find Sango standing over her with a gleam in her eyes.
"Well?" she smirked.
Kagome pulled her pillow over her face muffling her words, "Well, what?"
"Where did you and Inuyasha go last night?"
"Just for a walk by the lake..."
"Mm-hm...and?"
"And we talked...."she muttered through her pillow still half sleep.
"And you kissed," Sango smiled knowingly.
"And we kis...WAIT!" Kagome threw the pillow off of her face and sat straight up in bed. "How did you know?!"
"I didn't but now I do! How was it?! Did you do anything else?"
"NO!" Kagome blushed heavily. "Kami, Sango you've been around the lecher to long."
"Well, at least tell me if you liked it." Kagome turned a lovely shade of tomato red. "I knew it! You DO like him!"
"So what! You like the lecher!" she retorted and burst into laughter at the look on her friend's face.
"Yeah...yeah...we're even now."
"What time is it?" Kagome asked in mid-stretch.
"One in the afternoon. You know you're impossible to wake up?"
"But I don't have to be up. It's a sin to be up before noon on a Saturday."
Sango rolled her eyes. "Kag, you're impossible. Well, come on, we have to get started on our history paper."

Inuyasha woke up to the sound of his alarm clock ringing as Miroku walked in to his room brushing his teeth. Inuyasha picked up the alarm clock and hurl it in his direction, impaling him in the head.
"Ouch, what was that for?!"
Inuyasha groaned and turned over, his ear twitching to the sound of Miroku's voice? "It's not my fault you walked in at the wrong time. This IS my room, lech!"
Miroku rolled his eyes and left, closing Inuyasha's do behind him. ('How did I ever learn to put up with him...') After he finished his daily hygiene ritual someone knocked on the door. He walked over and answered it. A guy with long wavy black hair to his waist and red eyes stood behind it. He remembered the guy from his history class.
"Can I help you?"
"Yeah, I'm Kayta Naraku. I went to check out a book at the library and they said you had it. I wanted to know if I could borrow it for a while so I could get started on my history paper."
"Aw man, I forgot about that. You going to the library?"
"Yeah."
"Tell you what, give us a minute and we'll join you. Come in for a while, sorry about the mess." Miroku let Naraku in and closed the door behind him. He then went into Inuyasha's room and took his pillow for under him and hit him over the head with it.
"Damnit, what the fuck is wrong with you!"
"Come on, we're going to the library to work on the history paper."
"What's this 'we'?"
"You, I, and Naraku. And with your grades from high school you're going to be there a lot longer than we are," he grinned and closed to door as Inuyasha sat up and threw the pillow at him. With a growl he got up and began getting ready to leave.

After their attempt to study at the dorm failed with the blearing of loud music and people opening and slamming doors Sango and Kagome decided to head over to the library. They took the elevator up to the third floor, which held the books they needed to start their paper on the Holocaust. To their surprise when they got there they found that Miroku and someone else were talking about the Holocaust while Inuyasha was stretched out on the couch fast asleep with a book on his chest. Miroku lifted his head up to them as they came in.
"You guys here working on that Holocaust paper?" asked Miroku.
"Yeah, unfortunately..." sighed Sango glancing over at who he was talking to when they walked in.
"My apologizes, I'm being rude. Sango this is Kayta Naraku, Naraku this is the lovely Taijiya Sango. This charming girl who just walked in with her is our friend and her roommate, Higurashi Kagome."
"Oi, Naraku," greeted Kagome walking over to Inuyasha watching him as he sleep on the couch with a book on his chest. "What's wrong with Inuyasha?"
"He's not the 'I'm ready to begin my paper' type," shrugged Miroku writing down some notes for his paper. Out of the corner of his eye he caught Naraku eyeing Kagome and grinned thinking she had another admirer. ('Inuyasha won't like this.')
Kagome picked up the book off of Inuyasha's chest waking him up. "I was reading that," he yawned.
Kagome smiled, "didn't look like it to me." She pushed his feet of the couch and sat down in the spot that his feet once occupied. Inuyasha growled and this made her laugh. "If you're trying to intimate me it's not working."
"Feh." Inuyasha crossed his arms over his chest and pretended to look at something more interesting.
Naraku reached into his back pocket and took out his wallet to get his library card and when he did a picture fell out. Kagome reached over and picked it up. "T...That's me...an my mom, dad, and uncle. Where did you get this?"
"That? Oh, my teacher gave it to me. She died a long time ago."
"Your teacher?"
"Yeah...wait a minute. You're Higurashi Teaya's daughter?" Kagome nodded. "Wow, then it's great to meet you. Your mom was my favorite teacher. How's your dad?"
Kagome sighed, "He died when I was ten."
"I'm sorry, I know how you feel. My dad died a long time ago too."
After talking a while about their past they got back to writing their paper. In about four hours and fifteen cups of coffee later they were done. They all walked out of the library, Kagome and Naraku in the lead talking and Inuyasha walking with Sango and Miroku glaring at the two ahead of them. When they pasted Naraku's dorm he waved good-bye and left.
Kagome turned around to see a scowl on the hanyou's face. "What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing..." he muttered refusing to meet her gaze.
"Are you jealous Inuyasha?" asked Sango.
"Shut UP!"
"Maybe he is because Kag has been talking with Naraku the whole time," stated Miroku. "Naraku seems pretty interested in you, Kag."
Inuyasha's eye began to twitch and Kagome giggled. She stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek making him blush instantly only because she kissed him in public and in front of Sango and Miroku.
Sango and Miroku stood in shock. "Oh my...Inuyasha's blushing?!" exclaimed Sango.
"The horror!" smiled Miroku.
"SHUT UP!"

Back at his room a certain stalker took the picture of the Higurashi family and crossed out Mr. and Mrs. Higurashi with a red marker along with Mr. Higurashi's brother. The only figure not crossed out was the last left of this family, Higurashi Kagome.
"Let the games begin," he grinned.
