Authors Note: I'm so so so so so soooooooooo sorry about the
last chapter. I don't know what happened but when I typed it, it
didn't have all those symbols it came up when the chapter was
posted.
Also the trip to Canada has been delayed. I don't know if I'm going anymore. ::sigh:: I really needed the relaxation and inspiration. Also I want to apologies if the story is moving kind of slow.
It will be speeding up. Enjoy!
::The Project::
(Sesshoumaru's Pov)
'It hasn't even been a whole two days AND I already have conflicts in my life.'
I had seen that girl, 'Kagome' walking into the dormitory with my idiot-half brother.
What she was doing with him is a mystery to me. 'Why should I care? I mean she's just another girl.'
You know exactly why you care? You like her.
'Why would I like that wench? What's so special about her?'
It's cause she is rebellious. She doesn't just agree and giggle at whatever you say?
'I'm not going to argue with myself. I have to get to my kendo practice.'
Well like you said, I AM you so I know exactly what goes on behind that stoic mask of yours. I will leave you......for now..
"Sesshoumaru! Wait Up!" I was brought out of my thoughts by the very topic of them. And for some odd reason
I stopped.
"What do you want?" I said as I started walking again.
"Nice to see you to?" came the sarcastic voice of Kagome
"Look I came to make some kind of peace offering." she continued. "I guess I kind of over reacted. I mean you do have your right to an opinion. Look I agree to what you said before, were not friends and we wouldn't even be talking to each other if it wasn't fo-,"
"HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING HANGING AROUND SESSHY!!!"
'Oh no, not know"
*~*~*~*~*~ Kagome's Pov
"HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING AROUND SESSHY!!!"
I turned around to see about 25 girls holding a giant banner that said 'Sesshy Fan club' There was a girl that was standing in front of them, she seemed to be the leader.
"What's a little freshman like you doin' hangin' around Sesshy!?!"
I didn't hear her I was to amazed by what I saw. I couldn't control what came out my mouth next.
"Kami..I knew Sesshoumaru was popular, but all of THIS! I mean don't you think your over doing it. I mean he IS handsome and all but MAN he isn't THAT great!"
It was to late to realize my mistake. I could see the steam coming out of all of there ears many started cheering on the leader with:
"Are you going to let her say that about Sesshoumaru, Kagura."
"Why that little bitch!"
"How DARE she."
"Look LITTLE GIRL! I don't who you think you are, bu-."
"Kagome Higurashi."
*~*~*~*~ Sesshoumaru's Pov
I really didn't want to deal with that idiot fan club of mine but they always seem to find me at the wrong time.
I was also surprised at what Kagome said. 'So, she thinks I'm handsome? Interesting'
I was really looking forward to how she was going to handle this. I was going to help her when they attacked, but for know I was going to enjoy some entertainment before my kendo class.
"Kagome Higurashi."
"What?"
"You said I don't know who I think I am. But I know I'm Kagome Higurashi."
"So....the freshman has a sense of humor." Kagura said as she started to advance toward Kagome. I could tell Kagome was getting mad.
"Let me show you exactly how funny I can be Kagome."
It was then Kagura launched at Kagome aiming at her face. I was very surprised when Kagome dodged to the left and knead Kagura in the stomach.
A lot of the Fan girls surrounded Kagura. Helping her to her feet.
"Don't worry we'll get you freshman."
I was surprised to see this girl could defend herself. I was amused when a blush graced her pretty little face after she realized the crowd that had formed and the whispers going around.
"Oh! Sesshoumaru your still here? What's with the Fan Club?"
"I'm going to be late for my kendo class."
"Is it in the school dojo?" she asked
"Yes. Why?"
"Great! We can finish our talk on our way there. So where was I? Oh Yeah! I really want to get a good grade on this project so let's put our differences aside and we can come up with a creative assignment."
"Ok. Just for the assignment."
*~*~*~*~* [Kagome's Pov]
"OK class welcome to your first archery class of the year. My name is Kaede. Please if you have archery experience move to the left of the room. If you don't have any please to the right." The archery teacher was a small old lady with a patch over her right eye. She seemed to be nice. I moved over to the left of the room. There were only about 25 people in the class including myself. It didn't escape me that the only people with experience were me and a boy with short, brown hair and had that boyish look. In short.......he was nothing compared to Sesshoumaru.
'WAIT A SECOND!!!!! Why am I comparing boys to Sesshoumaru? I looked over at the screen door that separated the archery class from the kendo class.
'Maybe It's cause of that freaky Fan Club of his.'
"Hello." I looked over at the brown haired boy. He was smiling at me.
"Hi."
"My name Hojo Hitori."
"Kagome Higurashi."
"Is this your first year Kagome?"
"Yeah..why do you ask?"
"Because I haven't seen you around before. This is my second year."
'Whoa! I thought he was a freshman like me.'
But before we could continue the conversation, Kaede began to speak.
"Ok. It seems we only have two people with experience in this class. I already know you Hojo, but what's your name miss."
I blushed. Everyone had there attention turned towards me. Some girls gave me VERY scary looks. I assumed they were from the Fan Club.
"Umm..Kagome Higurashi." Kaede looked down at the clipboard she was holding.
"Ah Yes..Higurashi. Your a first year yet you say you have archery experience, do you mine doing a demonstration?" she said handing me the bow and quiver.
"Sure!" I really wanted to show off to those Fan Club girls. Why? I didn't know. I just felt like it. Maybe just to see there faces.
I positioned the bow and quiver and aimed at the bull's-eye. All other noises from the room were drowned out by my concentration.
I released.
I heard gasps from throughout the room.
I smirked.
Looking over at the Fan Girls I could see the steam coming out of there ears.
"Very good Ms. Higurashi. Try another one." She handed me another quiver.
Again the same routine except this time the second arrow sliced through the first.
"Excellent! Where did you learn such archery?"
"My grandfather."
"Well..I guess you and Hojo can help me teach the class."
I smiled at Hojo. He was blushing. A LOT.
*~* Sesshoumaru's Pov}*~*~ I saw her little performance. It surprised me VERY MUCH. So the little freshman wasn't lying, she was an advanced archer.
I was looking through the door of at Kaede's archery class. I knew she was there and I was very curious. II didn't need to pay attention to my instructor. He was going over the basic stances with the katana.
But there was something I didn't want to see. Her being around that Hojo boy. He wasn't as popular as me, but he was well known by girls around the school. And the way he was acting around Kagome it seems she caught his attention.
But seeing Kagome hit another bull's-eye gave me an idea on what we could do for our Warring-States Era Project.
*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome's Pov
So it was now Friday. I hadn't spoken to Sesshoumaru since that day with the Fan club. That was a bad thing. So I was really surprised when he stopped by my dorm room last night. If it was possible I my jaw would of hit the floor. He told me to meet him at the park at 12:00.
That's why I was currently strolling threw the park wishing he told me WHERE at the park to meet him, I mean it WAS a pretty big park.
Something bothered me though. How did he know my dorm room number.
I looked around. The park was truly beautiful. The remaining features of summer were being replaced by the cool are and colorful leaves of autumn.
I wasn't really paying attention and bumped into something or someone. I automatically knew who it was by the had on my ass.
"HENTAI!"
SLAP
CRACK
THUD
"Nice to see you to Kagome." Said the voice of a swirly eyed Miroku.
"What are you doing hear Miroku?" I said helping him up.
"Well, something told me to come this way so I listened to my instincts."
"Well I can't stay and chat, I'm meeting something."
"Oh Really? So who are you supposedly meeting?"
"Me."
We both looked at the voice that came from behind Miroku.
I noticed Miroku paled a little, then a sly grin came on his face. I was going to kill him if he was thinking THAT.
"Miroku please get rid of the perverted thoughts that I know are going through your head!"
"See ya' Later Kag's." he said as he left with that same look on his face.
I turned back at Sesshoumaru.
"Why do you let that guy grope you?" he asked as he sat down on one of the benches. I was surprised by his question.
"Oh you mean Miroku! He's a real sweetheart sometimes, but other times he's a total lecher."
"Is he your boyfriend?"
"Uhhhh, no he's just a friend." 'Why is Sesshoumaru asking me all these questions?
"Why do you ask?"
"I asked you to come here because I wanted to discuss the Warring States-Era project?"
I let my question drop for now.
"Yeah if we don't get started we're going to fail. Do you have an idea for what we can do cause I have absolutely no ideas."
I wasn't lying. I even sat down for a hour contemplating on the options we had.
"Yes I do have an idea."
"Well, WHAT IS IT!"
"Please do not yell in my ears. You take archery right.." I nodded "Well archery and swordsmanship are two ways of life during the Warring-States Era. Maybe we can put on some sort of show using what were most skilled at."
"That's a great idea! Where do we start."
