Chapter 5-Let's be happy! ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

Kagome was right when she said that the stares and giggles were going to get worse. Everyday a new girl would walk up to Inuyasha and start flirting, either they would play hard to get, or turn into jelly the minute he looked at the them. Kagome was NOT finding this as amusing as Inuyasha did.

After a few weeks, Inuyasha began to get to know the 'in' crowd and he slowly stopped following Kagome at lunch, he wore the necklace all the time, as if he was ashamed of his demon side and became more and more stuck up.

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^

Inuyasha would still walk home with Kagome though, so they trundled along in almost utter silence as Kagome stared at the sky and Inuyasha fiddled with his beads. The silence was finally broken by Inuyasha coughing.

"So, how was your day Kagome chan." He asked, his eyes on his beads.

"Oh, the usual, being ignored, having trouble with maths." She turned to Inuyasha who was still playing with his necklace.

"I saved the world too, found out I was really a super heroine and I'm only using my powers for good."

"Uh huh, that's nice." He replied, not really paying attention.

Kagome frowned and walked a little faster. What's the point of asking about someone's day and not pay attention! The nerve of that jerk!

"Sir, we have some important news."

"I'm listening."

"Well, there's been another youkai attack sir, two people dead, three injured."

"Thats four attacks in two weeks! We can't carry on like this, we have to do something!"

"But what sir? The youkai revolt is way too strong for us, our weapons have no effect on them!"

"We'll have to take matters alot more seriously. Contact the army, tell them we have a code red."

"Yes sir."

"Coming up next, Tenchi Universe."

"Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Tenchi Tenchi Tenchi!" Sota danced around the room, jumping and twirling like a mad man. Kagome was reading a book and Inuyasha (still in his human form.) was sitting with his arms crossed, watching the tv.

Sota jumped onto Inuyasha's lap.

"I like Sasaaaaaamiiiiiii, she's so preeeeeeetttttyyyyy." Sota's eyes became glazed over and he went into his own little world of blue haired girls.

Inuyasha raised his eyebrow and stood up.

" I'm doing some homework, see ya." He wandered off upstairs.

He stopped short of Kagome's room and peered inside, her diary was left on her desk. He sauntered up to the desk and quickly opened her diary on the last entry.

'Things are worse than I thought, Inuyasha's gone over to THEIR side! He's with the popular crowd now, he never takes off his necklace and he justs lays around in class laughing at jokes that aren't even funny! What a jerk! I can't beleive he could just do that! And today, when we were walking home, he asked how my day was and didn't even pay attention. Oh well I guess it doens't matter, a jerk like him doesn't deserve a friend like me! Plus, he's a LOT cuter as a hanyou! Nice looks, shame about the personality! I hate him I hate him I hate him!'

Something in the 'I hate him.' sentence made Inuyasha feel sad. He WAS listening but she started rambling on about saving the world. He wanted Kagome to like him, maybe even more than a friend............

Inuyasha gasped, he was doing it again! Having thoughts about Kagome being 'more than a friend', what a muppet! He'd been thinking about her alot recently. Did he like her? As in, love? Hell no! He only liked her because she looked like Kikyou. Right? But Kagome isn't like Kikyou. In fact, if he was stuck on a island and had to chose someone to be stuck with, he'd chose Kagome.........

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING IN MY ROOM INUYASHA?!"

Inuayasha snapped out of his meaningful thoughts at turned to the fuming Kagome.

"GET THE HELL OUTTA MY ROOM NOW!" Boy, she was really pissed.

Inuyasha darted for the door and swept past the angry Kagome and dived into the spare room and hid under the bed. Well, maybe he'd like to be stuck with Kagome on an island, if there was no one else of course.

Kagome ran up to her desk where her diary was laying, wide open, at her last entry. How could she have been so careless? So many years hiding it from Sota, only to be found by her enemy, Inuyasha! It's just wasn't fair! But, it served him right. He chose to look through it, so now he knows how she really feels. But Kagome didn't want Inuyasha to think that she hated him.

Even though she does.

But he's sweet when he's at home. Sometimes.

Hah, Kagome girl, you don't need Inuyasha! He used you until he found friends better than you!

But when you're popular, you have to be mean, otherwise your friends will abandon you.

What? Like your friends? You were yourself and they hated you. You were someone else and they hated you. Face it Kagome, everyone hates you.

Kagome shook her head violently. Scary voices inside her head were scary. She jumped onto her bed, stuffed her face in her pillow and screamed.

Inuyasha, now in his hanyou form, sat up when he heard Kagome's muffled scream. She was angry at him. VERY angry, and it was all his fault. He flopped back down and blinked a few times. Just because Kagome doesn't like you, doesn't mean you have to get all upset about it! He tried to tell himself this over and over, but for some reason, it didn't work. He stuffed his face in his pillow and sniffed.

Modern life sucks!
