Chapter 4- The First Day Of School
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
The whole of the household was violently woken up by Kagome's screams of 'I'm late I'm late!' Those used to the screams merely rolled over in bed and stuffed pillows on their heads but poor Inuyasha with his sensitive dog- ears was twitching like mad as Kagome burst into his room, throwing his uniform at him.
"Hurry Inuyasha! Get it on otherwise we'll be late!" She dashed out of the room and came back moments later, lobbing a school bag straight at Inuyasha's head, the Hanyou was too busy trying to get into his uniform to notice the bag flying towards his head at 100MPH and when he did, it was too late. The bag landed with a BANG on Inuyasha's face. Kagome laughed nervously before looking at her watch and running out of the room.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Kagome and Inuyasha walked slowly to school, it turned out that Sota had wound up Kagome's watch half an hour forward, so she was actually early. For once.
Inuyasha was still sore about being hit in the face with a VERY heavy bag. He growled as he walked along, a big red mark covered most of his face. The walk was mostly full of an uncomfortable silence but half way Kagome looked nervously towards Inuyasha.
"I,Inuyasha?" She murmured. He ignored her.
"Look, I'm sorry about hitting you with that bag, I was in a rush." Her voice rose a bit but he continued to look straight ahead.
Suddenly, Kagome grabbed a lock of Inuyasha's silver hair, she yanked it hard, causing Inuyasha to yell and fall over. He looked up at Kagome.
"What the HELL was THAT for WENCH?!" He screamed at her.
"You need to put your necklace on Inuyasha." She replied, getting it out of her bag. Inuyasha stared at her.
"You stole that from me!"
"I knew you'd forget it, you left it in your haori so I took it out before we left." She knelt down and placed it over Inuyasha's head. Instantly, his dog-ears receded into his head and were replaced with human ones on the sides of his head. He hair got shorter and as it did, it turned from silver into brown. Kagome watched in awe as the transformation was finished. Inuyasha stood up and opened his eyes. They were still amber. Kagome blushed furiously.
"You...you look...." She began.
"Yeah?"
"Um....like a grown-up Sota?" Inuyasha slapped his hand over his forehead. Just when he thought he was going to get a compliment!
"Uh, you look good though." She stuttered. He took his hand away from his head and smiled at her.
"Really?" He asked. Kagome sighed and carried on walking.
"Yes." She mumbled, Inuyasha came up behind her.
"I didn't heeeeeeeeeear youuuuuuuuu." He taunted.
"I said you looked good okay?!" She yelled. Some kids over the street looked at her and she blushed again and started to quicken her pace.
Inuyasha put his hands behind his head and looked up and the sky.
"I wonder...Do I look better as a Hanyou, or a human?"
'He's so full of himself!' Kagome thought, but she kept it to herself, she stared at the ground and smiled.
"A Hanyou." She whispered. Inuyasha looked at her. "Really?" He smirked. "That's good to know!"
Kagome straightened up. 'I forgot he had sensitive ears! Even as a human? Oh well..'
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
"Ohayou Kagome chan." A girl with long black hair tied into a loose ponytail ran up to her.
"Ohayou Sango chan." Kagome sighed. Sango instantly became worried about Kagome's lack of enthusiasm. "You okay Kagome chan?"
Kagome motioned her head behind her. Sango leant over a bit. Inuyasha was pressing the buttons to the drinks machine, when nothing came out, he glared at it, then kicked it, then started yelling at it. Sango's got wide and leant back to her normal position.
"And that is who?"
Kagome sighed again. "Inuyasha. He's living with me."
"He looks like a grown-up Sota kun."
Inuyasha walked up behind Kagome and tapped her back.
"There's a whole bunch of girls watching me! They keep on giggling, like the ones on the bas." He sounded like a little child.
"It's called a bus, Inuyasha." She turned around to see some girls from her class giggling and blushing at Inuyasha. A wave of jealousy swept over Kagome, but she shook it off and directed Inuyasha to the classroom.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
"Today class, we have a new student, it's his first day here so I want you all to be polite to him."
"Hai sensei."
"Okay then, Inuyasha, please step forward."
Inuyasha strode up to the front of the class, looking a bit nervous, he looked in Kagome's direction and she gave him a thumbs up, filled with new confidence he smirked and started talking.
"My name is Inuyasha! I've only been here for a few days, er...my parents are on a business trip here and I'm staying with some close friends of the family. I'm looking forward to meeting all of you." With that, he walked back to his seat (followed by stares from ALL the girls.) and sat down. His seat was next to Kagome's and she stared at him in pride.
"That was good Inuyasha! What improvisation!" Her eyes were all starry and glazed. Inuyasha leaned back in his seat. "I know, I know."
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
The worst thing about school is when you have maths first. This is the case with Kagome's class and everyone knows Kagome can't do maths to save her life, whereas Inuyasha is quite the maths whiz. He watched her now and then as she chewed her pencil, made growling noises and rubbed furiously at her paper.
When the teacher went out to deliver a note, Inuyasha leaned over.
"Need any help?" He asked cautiously. Kagome looked like she was about to explode.
"I'm fine." She spat and continued working. After two seconds she slammed her pencil down and grabbed Inuyasha's shirt.
"I need help!" She begged.
Five minutes later, Inuyasha was standing over Kagome's desk and pointing to the paper, she nodded and wrote down everything he told her, both oblivious to the jealous stares by most of the girls.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
"Lunch time is the BEST!" Kagome shouted, punching the air, Sango followed behind, looking at the floor and Inuyasha walked next to Kagome. They walked over to where the rest of Kagome's 'friends' were sitting, they greeted Sango and nodded lightly at Kagome before carrying on talking about boys. One of them stopped dead when Inuyasha sat down, she whispered to the others girls and they moved over to Inuyasha.
"Hi!" They girls said cheerfully. Inuyasha eyes them warily and looked towards Kagome, she was staring at the ground in complete silence.
"Hi." He answered. Politeness was the key to getting places a miko once told him.
"You're new here ne?" A girl asked, she had short black hair which came down a little past her ears and dark blue eyes. Inuyasha slowly nodded.
"I'm Yasuna." She nodded her head in a slight bow and pointed to another girl with long brown hair and green eyes. " That's Megumi, and there's Hikaru and Ayane and that one there is Ami." Inuyasha nodded at them in turn as each girl blushed lightly.
After a while, Sango stood up. "Well, I have to go and give in a late paper to Kitano sens..." She froze in mid speech, her face twisted into a scowl and she turned around. A boy with short black hair and a small ponytail sweat-dropped and smiled nervously. He was then slapped hard by Sango.
"I told you not to touch me there Miroku!" She screamed as the whole school went silent.
"Sango dear, you misinterpret my intentions." Miroku began. " I was walking up to you when a boy pushed me forward and my hand ACCIDENTLY fell there." Sango wasn't buying it and slapped him again. Inuyasha watched the pair as the girls around him giggled and blushed. He turned his attention towards Kagome again, she was still staring at the ground in silence, Inuyasha got up and sat next to her.
"Who is that lecherous boy?" He asked, trying to make conversation. Yasuna made a small growling sound and started talking to her friends.
Kagome gave Inuyasha a weak smile. "That's Miroku. His father's some sort of priest. He's been doing that to Sango since we first met. They both like each other but refuse to admit it."
Inuyasha nodded and they both sat there in silence until it was time to go back to lessons.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
"I'm sooooo tired!" Kagome stretched and shook her arms a bit. Inuyasha walked along with his arms in as much sleeve as he could get, he looked a bit odd as the sleeves were very short but he was used to his haori and stuffing his arms in his sleeves.
"So that's what school's like eh?"
"Uh huh." Kagome yawned.
"The girls there are a bit strange." Inusyasha commented.
"That's because they all think you're sooooo cute and soooo cool. It'll probably get worse."
"Oh." A long pause then. "Do you think I'm...'cute'?"
Kagome stopped in her tracks and stared at Inuyasha for a while.
"Um...I don't know...er...." This was a very odd question coming from a Hanyou threatening to kill her an who only knew what manners were when he wanted something.
Inuyasha gave her a sort of sad look, then he laughed maniacally.
"Never mind wench. I know I am." He walked in front of Kagome for a while before turning around.
"What does cute mean?"
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I only have the weekend left before I go back to school! Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo -sniff- It's not fair! Oh well, I had to go back sometime. Just not this sooooooon -bursts into tears again-
