**Disclaimer**

Hey there all! Sorry this updating thing is taking forever and a day. My comp is acting up and when I was going to finish the fourth chapter, it wouldn't read the disk I had it on. So if it's taking forever, that's why. I got a review saying that I wasn't really keeping the character's personalities so this chapter get everything rolling again. Also I am going to incorporate the title a bit more from now on.

Oh yeah, back to the disclaimer, I don't own the characters of Inu- Yasha.

Chapter 4- Two Guys and a Girl, never a good sign!

The day Inu- Yasha, Sango, Miroku and Shippo started school was there upon them. The morning was finally there for them to see and explore.

That night before was something all of them would remember though. Sango and Kagome were in Kagome's room and the guys were stuck out in the living room.

Late into the night the guys decided to sneak into Kagome's room and sleep there. For some reason, Everything felt right when they were all in the same room. Inu- Yasha and Shippo tried not to wake- up Kagome as they tried to sleep on her bed with her, but Kagome woke up and yelped in surprise.

Inu- Yasha jumped back slightly in surprise and then went up to her and nuzzled his nose to hers. He looked into her eyes with his golden yellows and smirked some.

"What in the seven hells was that yelp for?" He asked, the grin still on his face. "We just got lonely and went up to see our women."

Kagome glared at him. How could he! And when her mother could walk in any minute from now!

Miroku and Sango slept soundly in each other's arms and the same question ran through the others minds at the same time, "What in the seven hells is up with those two!?"

"What do you mean, 'our women'?" Inu- Yasha could tell that she was pissed by the tone she had in her voice.

"What it sounds like… I guess…" Inu- Yasha could tell he was digging himself a deeper grave as he went on. "That is I uh… I mean….."

"Well, it's late, you guys can stay here for the night, I guess, but only for tonight." Kagome said making room for Inu- Yasha and Shippo. She really didn't mind having the guys in her room. She actually got used to it when she was in their time. In fact, she missed it whenever she was home in her time.

Shippo snuggled up close to Kagome and stayed in between the two young adults. Inu- Yasha just wanted the little brat to get out of his way so he can be that close to his Kagome. But, Shippo was just a kid anyway. He didn't know any better. All the same, Inu- Yasha placed his arms around Kagome's waist possessively and then peacefully fell asleep.

~~~~~~~~

The alarm clock rang it's annoying little buzz and Inu- Yasha woke up and instantly killed the poor clock with his fist. What was that damn thing and why was it being annoying?!

Kagome woke up at the sound of crunching plastic and circuits and saw the messed up clock lying there in a pile of tangled debris.

"My clock!" She whined. "You, you broke it! That was so I could wake up in time to get to school! You don't break it!"

Inu- Yasha blinked. That thing was to wake ones self up?! How annoying! Shippo was better at it, why not use him? At least he could withstand a blow that caused the death of the little noise maker.

"G- gomen nasai, Kagome- Chan…" Inu- Yasha buried his face in her shoulder and tried not to laugh. All this over a killed time- piece?

"It's ok…just next time don't kill the damn thing!" Kagome took that time to play with Inu- Yasha's ear. It twitched as she touched it and she playfully glommed onto it. He yelped in surprise and backed away as much as he could in the little bed.

"What was that for?!"

"Pay back for killing the poor clock." Kagome said matter- of- factly.

"I said I was sorry!"

"So, this was my revenge for killing it!"

Inu- Yasha sighed. He placed his head back to her shoulder and scooted closer to her once again. Shippo was up already and no where to be found so Inu- Yasha seized the day and snuggled up to her as much as humanly (or yokai, or hanyo) possible.

Kagome kissed his cheek, then his lips. She liked how good it felt to be in his arms. Even though she knew she had to get up and get ready for school, she just couldn't get away from his touch. She gave it ten more minutes.

Shippo was already ready to go to school. He had made several spell leaves for both him and Inu- Yasha so they could hide their demonic sides. It took a lot out of him just to make them strong enough to last all day.

He walked downstairs to the kitchen and spied Mrs. Higurashi cooking some breakfast for everybody. She had a far away look in her eyes that frightened him. Something was definitely wrong! And Shippo was going to be the one to find out what.

Miroku and Sango slept through the whole clock fiasco but woke up to see Inu- Yasha and Kagome still asleep. They both got up and dressed for school.

Every time Miroku tried anything hentai, she slapped his hand away and glared at him, even though her eyes were smiling deep down.

After they got dressed, the two walked down stairs and into the dining room. There, they saw that breakfast was ready. So they plopped down and ate.

Kagome finally got up and got dressed. Inu- Yasha followed suit. Neither looked at each other as they got dressed.

After the both of them were satisfied with their looks and such, they got downstairs and ate.

At the table, Shippo handed Inu- Yasha a leaf and told him to place it on his forehead. He did as he was told and instantly, his ears were that of a human, his eyes were blue, and his hair was the same shade of black as Kagome's. He looked quits stunning as a human, Kagome thought to herself blushing slightly.

After they all ate their fill and it was time to go, they headed off to school. Shippo and Sota one way, and the group of young adults the other.

About half way there, Kagome heard her name being called from behind, it was one of her so called "friends" who always try and hook her up with Hojo. Oh hell, she thought, I hope they don't talk about Hojo in front of Inu- Yasha…

"Hey Kagome," her friend said smiling, and ignoring Inu- Yasha and the others. "How come you stood up Hojo again? That was like, what, the thousandth time you did that to poor little Hojo?"

Kagome grimaced at the sound of that annoying guy's name. She glanced up at Inu- Yasha and he looked at her in confusion.

"Who is Hojo, Kagome?" He asked placing a hand on her shoulder.

"He is just a guy they want me to go out with…"Kagome sighed. "I really don't want to go out with him though."

Inu- Yasha smiled weakly and hugged her. Kagome's friend blinked at this, "Uh, Kagome… who is he?"

Kagome smiled, "He's Inu- Yasha. My boyfriend." Kagome's friend's jaw dropped.

Kagome could see that her friend was in a stupor. She smiled in her mind and took Inu- Yasha's hand. Sango was fighting back giggles and so was Miroku. This was going to be an interesting day for the group.

Kagome was left behind as Kagome and the gang walked the rest of the way to school. They made it just in time as she walked into their first period class.

Kagome went to her seat and Inu- Yasha, Sango, and Miroku went to follow but the teacher stopped them. "You three must be the new students. Hi, I'm Mr. Jurai. Please wait outside the door until I call for you."

They did as were told and waited. About a few minutes later, The teacher announced them in and they stood silently in front of the class.

"Class, these are the new students. Inu Yasha, Sango, and Miroku. Please give them respect and make sure they get along well in this school." as he introduced each one he pointed at them with a large ruler. Inu- Yasha didn't like it one bit. That pointing thing had to go.

Kagome smiled as she watched Inu- Yasha stood there behaving himself. After Inu- Yasha, Sango, and Miroku said "Hi" to the class, Mr. Jurai showed them to their seats (which were surrounding Kagome).

~*~

At lunch the gang sat at the same table and talked and ate.

"So," Kagome said, "How do you like it so far?"

"It could be better." Inu- Yasha said after he swallowed his mouth full of ramen.

"I know," Sango said, "When do we get to do something else besides study?"

"after lunch we have Gym class." Kagome offered. "There we get to do sports like Volleyball, Basketball, and other things like that. It's a good work out."

Sango and Inu- Yasha smiled at the thought of physical activities. Miroku grinned slightly. Why was he dreading it already?

Just then Hojo walked up and tapped Kagome on the shoulder. She looked back and turned around abruptly.

"Kagome, how come one of your friends said you had a boyfriend?" He said, hurt was evident in his voice.

"Be cause she does. Me." Inu- Yasha stood up and sized himself up with Hojo. "You must be Hojo. Inu- Yasha, Kagome's man." He glared daggers at Hojo.

Hojo stepped back surprised. "So, it's true then. Kagome, why didn't you tell me?"

It was Inu- Yasha's turn to look hurt at Kagome. That's right, why hadn't she told this Hojo guy she was taken?

"Because, I never had the chance." Kagome said standing up. Sango and Miroku just sat there and watched the little soap opera progressing in front of them. Miroku tried to grope Sango's behind but she slapped his hand away, her eyes still on the three.

"Never had the chance? Never had the chance?! Why the hell not! We were apart for three GOD DAMN DAYS?!" Inu- Yasha yelled. The rest of the cafeteria went silent and looked their way.

"Because I locked myself in my room for those three GOD DAMN DAYS!" Kagome retorted. Giving emphasis to the three same words Inu- Yasha did.

Hojo just stood there stupefied. Why did she lock herself in her room for three days? This was all confusing.

"Listen, wench…" Inu- Yasha said darkly. "Don't give me this pathetic weakling human crap! I know you better… you would never do that after all that has happened…"

"Don't call me wench, Dog- Boy… I really was crying my eyes out over what happened. Why don't you believe me?!" This was starting to get out of hands very fast and it was scaring Kagome a little.

Inu- Yasha fumed. What was going on? Why were they having a fight? This was all Hojo's fault, he thought. He must pay…

Inu- Yasha turned to Hojo and glared at him. "You, why did you have to confront her now… don't you trust people's word? This fight all started over your bad timing!" He started to take a step closer to the baka but Kagome got in the way.

"Don't Inu- Yasha. If you kill him, I don't think we could be together anymore…" What was she saying?!

Inu- Yasha blinked. What in the seven hells was she saying? "Move, wench… I won't kill him… I'll just rip every limb from his God Damn body!" He lunged at Hojo but he missed because Hojo stepped about ten feet back at hearing Inu- Yasha's words.

"That's it!" Kagome screamed. "Inu- Yasha, I think we need to be apart for a while until you get your bloody head cleared up! He aren't where you live anymore. You can't make threats like that!"

"I can do what I want, Kagome! Why are you protecting this lousy excuse for a man?!" Inu- Yasha couldn't think straight. What was going on?

"Shut up! I am not! I just am doing this so you won't get expelled!" Kagome started to cry. She ran off and out of the cafeteria. Inu- Yasha tried to go after her but Sango got up and told him she better go and left. The entire room kept silent but the table ignored it. They were too engrossed in it to care.

This was all very confusing.

Back at the old Bone Eater's Well shrine, there was a glow from where the well once was. It showed the scene in a little bubble. A disembodied voice cackled.

"Kek kek kek kek… This is all going as planed. This little soap opera was a fine little bonus as well. Soon they will all break!" The voice cackled some more and drifted off in the darkness.

Mrs. Higurashi sat there in darkness in the kitchen. Her eyes got shallower and shallower every minute. Her face grew even paler as those minutes passed. He mumbled a song and stood off into darkness and her symptoms got worse.
