Umm. This is my first Inuyasha fic, so please don't hurt me. **dodges
flying fruit** Speaking of fruit. I'm debating whether or not to write a
chapter filled with lemony goodness. I never have and don't think I'd be
very good at it, but I suppose I could try if you all want. I may have to
enlist the help of the lemon queen herself. (That's you Sam) But that's
only if you want it.
Hmm. Must I actually write a disclaimer? K, this applies to all of the chapters: I don't own anything or anyone. except the American exchange student at Kagome's school. and this cup of lemonade. **hold up glass**
Anywho.

"This is very amusing, Kagome," said one of Kagome's teachers, "but the story you handed in was supposed to be a personal narrative. Something real."
Kagome knew handing the story she had was a mistake. What if she had believed her? Nobody was supposed to know all of that. What's worse is that they had had to read them out loud. What if one of the more feeble-minded students had believed it? She would be in deep trouble, that's for sure. She mentally slapped herself several times. 'I'm so STUPID!' She screamed in her mind. 'What was I thinking?'
"Kagome, I hope to see something real tomorrow."
Good. She was giving her a second chance.
"Kagome?" said a short red-haired girl Kagome didn't know very well, "I like the story."
"Thanks," Kagome said, slightly relieved that she had no criticism. But who was she? She'd seen her before, but as she'd missed so much school, she really hadn't gotten time to get to know her. She knew the girl was from America. her name seemed funny to her. What was it? Anna? Yes. That was it.
As Anna walked away, she said over her shoulder, "It wasn't real, was it?"
"What do you think?"
"Well, you never know, I guess. It could be."
Kagome mentally slapped herself, a habit, it seemed. Great. Just great. Someone went and believed her!
When she thought about it, it was kind of a relief, having someone to talk to about it outside of her family and the people involved. But, if Inuyasha found out that Anna knew, he'd be livid. For all she knew he already was because she'd left him after a petty argument. Now going back would be torture, because not only had she just blabbed to the world their entire purpose (though no one believed her) but, she hadn't been there to help him in several days. She wouldn't be surprised if he came to her time and dragged her away right now. She knew she had to eventually go back, but she knew it wouldn't be a very happy reunion. But for now, she had to go to lunch.
Once there, she met up once more with Anna. "So, did you really believe the story?"
"Do you really hang out with demons?"
"Yes," Answered Kagome, sensing that Anna was trustworthy.
"Cool." Anna said, sounding amazed.
So, Anna and Kagome ended up very deep in conversation. In this conversation, she described more of the personal side of her adventures. She described the personalities of her friends. Anna listened with rapt attention. She was especially interested in Kagome's description of Inuyasha's ears and canine teeth.
After several days of such talk, Kagome knew there was no way getting around it. She missed Inuyasha and no matter how mad at her he may be, she had to go back to him. After all, without her, who was keeping him in line? But when she finally decided she couldn't go any longer without seeing him, she also happened to have plans with Anna. How much could it hurt to take her with her?
"Kagome, I can't go."
"Why not?"
"Well, for one, there's a test tomorrow, and for another, I'm not sure hanging out with a demon is the safest way to spend my time in Japan."
"He's only half demon, and you can bring your homework with you."
"From how you describe him, he doesn't sound very pleasant."
"He can be, he's just not very happy right now. I'm sure you'll love him."
Anna rolled her eyes, but relented. She picked up her bag and climbed into the well after Kagome. And guess who was waiting on the other side.
Inuyasha's ears perked up when he heard them coming. He knew from the scent that reached his nose, the she was not alone. Once they were out of the well, and in plain view, Inuyasha walked over to Kagome. He was absolutely seething!
"How could you be so stupid?!" He yelled, "You left me for an entire week and when you finally decide to come back, you've got this?" he gestured toward Anna.
"Oh, yes, Kagome," said Anna sarcastically, "It's just as you said."
Things obviously weren't off to a great start.
"I'm going to go read that book we were assigned to read a week ago, which by the way, I haven't started, so if you ever stop yelling, just know not to interrupt."
A few hours later, Kagome found Anna nearby, halfway through the book she was reading. This was surprising, because they were supposed to be learning French, and to test them, they'd each been given a book, which just so happened to be the French version of whatever book it was. Did Anna know that much French?
"Hey, Kagome. Is you're kitty friend done yelling, now?"
From far off, they heard Inuyasha yell, "I AM NOT A KITTY!!!"
"Umm. about that, he's Half DOG demon."
Nope. Not a good start at all.

Ok, I know its really, really short, but I get easily bored with staring at the keyboard. Maybe if it were bright green and orange, that'd be different.
Anywho, I don't have this all written out. I'm improvising. If you have any suggestions, let me know. Reviews are like chocolate! And I LOVE chocolate!!!
Much Love, Jean
