Last time: She was about to walk into the classroom when she heard a girl gasp and a slap from across the hall. 'I didn't warn Miroku not to grope anybody!!'

Chapter 3

Kagome wasn't sure how she managed to get to lunch. If people weren't talking to her about being sick, she was busy being bombarded with questions about that 'hot, dreamy hunk' she'd brought to school with her. She explained many times that not only was he 'related' to her, but he was not at all hot. 'Well, not as hot as they were saying he was!!'

Kagome had been worried from the start, the whole idea of him going to school was ridiculous. He didn't understand half of the things going on, he'd most likely get put in special ed. But, she had to admit, she'd rather have him someplace where people could watch him (ugh- not just the girls either!) then in her house when he could leave any time he wanted. She didn't think school was the right idea though. Then an idea dawned on her, and it wasn't exactly a good one.

Over ¾ of the girl's in the school thought Miroku was hot, and there were a lot of smart people in her school. They'd probably give him their homework! Kagome groaned. She didn't think cheating was right at all. This had happened before, when an exchange [a so called 'hot' one] student from China had been forced to learn English.

'Oh well, if it helps him succeed when he gets back to the Feudal Area' she thought, which only further reminded her that Inu Yasha hadn't come back yet. Kagome was starting to be glad that it was Miroku she was stuck with. She was shocked that she thought this, but the more she thought about it, she realized that even if Inu Yasha hadn't done whatever he'd done with Kikyou, she'd still want Miroku. Miroku wasn't quite as worried about the Shikon Jewel, but he did have 'troubles' with controlling his darn hands!

"Miss Higurashi, are you paying attention?!"

Why couldn't he resist the urge and keep his hands to himself? 'Hmph! Must be a guy thing'

"Miss Higurashi?"

Was someone calling her name? Too bad it wasn't Miroku. 'Inu Yasha! Just because he did that, doesn't mean I don't not love him'

"Miss Higurashi!"

Kagome jolted and realized that the whole class was staring at her and the teacher was red in the face and yelling slightly. Well, slightly was quite an understatement.

"Um....yes Mr. Vicare?"

"Have you been paying attention at all for the last few minutes?!"

"No?" she said, deciding to stick with the safe route (No lying!).

"Higurashi! You've been sick for quite awhile now, but I will not allow behavior like this in my classroom! Go down to Mr. Sandall's office and tell him why you aren't paying attention in my class! You've had enough time off that you don't need to be acting like this!" her teacher said, obviously in a rage.

'Wow. Harsh,' she thought, with her face instantly turning red with embarassment.

Kagome walked out of the classroom, leaving the snickers and the angry Mr. Vicare behind her.

'He didn't have to be that mean!'

She walked to the office, feeling slightly nervous. She'd never really been there, and she wasn't sure what to expect.

She walked in and walked up to the front desk.

"Um.excuse me, I uh.I..um." 'Stop stuttering Higurashi! Act like the mature adult you are'

"I'm supposed to be here to talk to Mr. Sandall. Is he open to speak to?" she asked in the sweetest voice she could muster. Be nice to the office ladies, they'll be nice back.

"Take a seat, there's a small line in front of you," one of them said, pointing to a small couch and a couple chairs filled with people.

Wasn't it just coincidental that all the chairs were filled, and that the only vacant seat was next to none other than Miroku, on the couch?

* * **
* * Inu Yasha was tense, waiting for Kouga. This could easily be the end of his life. 'Unless Kouga wants Kagome, then he needs me. He wouldn't know where to find her!'

"Mutt! Where's my woman?!" a deep voice called. The figure stood at the 'mouth' of the cave, peering in.

"She's not yours!" Inu Yasha yelled back. The figure looked over towards where Inu Yasha was stuck, and started striding towards him.

Inu Yasha watched as Kouga took a quick sniff in the air and said, while smirking, "Well she sure as hell ain't yours. Is that Kikyou I'm smelling?"

Inu Yasha growled, the meanest growl he could muster.

"You're only wasting your energy. You couldn't get free if your life depended on it," Kouga said, mockingly. "Now, where's my woman?"

Inu Yasha, gritted his teeth and decided to be quiet (well as quiet as he could be). He needed Kouga to help get him free. "She's gone back to her home."

Kouga looked at him funny. "I can smell her, but her scent isn't new."

Inu Yasha only grunted.

Kouga ran up to him and wrapped a hand around Inu Yasha's neck.

"You happen to be stuck. I could kill you in an instant if I wanted. Now, tell me where Kagome is."

"I...*gasp*..she's back at her home."

Kouga took his hand away from his neck and said, "You told me this earlier. I need to know where her home is."

Inu Yasha smiled and said, "You can't get there without me." * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Ok! SHORT CHAPTER!! (sorry sorry sorry!)
