Ch. 47 Car Quarrel

"Hey mom I'm home" I slammed the door shut and dropped my bag on the floor near the entryway.

"Got any snacks? I'm starving-" I walked into the kitchen, to see my mom sitting at the table (yes she did find it) holding an old book, her face red and tear stained.

I hurried over to her, "mom? What's wrong?"

She made a sniffling noise and smiled, the red eyes didn't make it very convincing, "nothing honey" she paused, "well um there is a small-"

"Mom I'm home ya mind if Kohaku comes in" We heard Souta come in.

"Sure honey" she turned to me "a small thing I would like to tell you later"

I nodded and left, oh the joys of homework.

"Higurashi, Houshi, Hanyou" (ok I don't mean to point out the obvious but does anyone else notice the alliteration there?), Mrs. Uresuei stood in front of us, looking somewhat like a drill leader (you know in the army where someone yells at you to do stuff, I'm not sure if that's the right word though)

"Yes" we all said in unison, kind of creepy.

She pointed to a pile of aluminum foil rolls, "I want you to make them into perfect squares"

"Huh?" I sad dumbfounded.

She gave me an annoyed look and began to speak to me very slowly, "I want you to cut the aluminum foil into squares, do you understand ?"

During this time Inuyasha was doing all he could to keep himself from laughing, I shot him a warning glance before nodding at Mrs. Uresuei.

We walked over to the pile and began to make "squares", ok so they didn't really look like squares, more like abstract triangles/rectangles/pentagon thingies.

"OW!" I cried for the fiftieth time, "damn metal cutter things" I said shooting the pile of foil a dirty look.

Inuyasha took my hand and looked at it, shocking me just a little, "are you ok?" he asked looking sincerely worried.

"Uh yeah" Inuyasha, worried over an itty-bitty cut on my finger? I guess that means he cares a lot.

Miroku who had his hands (and arms and a few on his face, don't ask,) covered in cuts gave a fake pouting look; "how come no one ever cares about my cuts" he sniffed fakely.

I pursed my lips together, "does the lil Miroku want me to kiss his wil booboo?" I said in a baby voice.

Miroku smiled, "actually that would be quite nice", he pointed to one of the ones on his cheek, "Could you start with this one?"

"Grrrrrrrrr" Inuyasha accidentally ripped the whole roll of foil (including the box) in half.

"You know I was just kidding, right he he" he moved a few inches away from Inuyasha nervously.

After a few more minutes Mrs. Uresuei came in, looked at our pile of aluminum squares and picked them up.

I breathed a small sigh of relief, 'I thought she was going to yell at us for not making squares' that is until Inuyasha tapped me on the shoulder and pointed to Mrs. Uresuei, just as she took our entire pile of squares and threw them into the trash can.

She came back and glared at us, "go" she pointed to the door and we left, I took another glance at the trashcan, 'all that time and blood wasted'

"Yes it's Friday" I threw one of my hands in the air as I walked with Inuyasha back to his car.

"And you know what that means right?" 'No more school for two days' I nodded.

"A party at my house", 'or that.'

"Uh yeah" I smiled as I stepped into his car.

"So do you want me to pick you up?" he asked smiling, he knew perfectly well that I had no choice, because I sure as hell did not want to show up at a party with my dented car.

"Yeah sure whatever" I yawned and grinned at him, "So are you going to come to my old neighborhood this weekend?" I asked, 'please say yes, please say yes, please say yes, please say yes, please say ye-'

"I guess"

'please say yes, please say yes, please say yes, please say yes'

"Uh Kagome?" I turned to him.

"Yes?" I asked hoping he would say yes.

He gave me a funny look and turned back to the road.

My jaw dropped, "uh Inuyasha?"

"yeah?" he asked.

"Um the question, uh you didn't answer it" I said shyly.

"Kagome I did answer the question" he didn't look away from the windshield.

"You did?" I asked a little shocked, 'he did?'

"Yes" he answered grinning a little.

"And it was." I said trying to get him to tell me the answer.

"I don't think I can remember" he said playfully giving me an adorable grin.

"Inuyasha"

"Wait, maybe it was, no it couldn't be" he put hi hand on his chin and pretended to think..

"Inuyasha" I reached over and grabbed the front of his shirt.

He grinned, "Kagome keep your shirt on, I am trying to drive, you could at least wait until I pulled over somewhere" he grinned, as my jaw dropped and I sat there gaping at him for a second, when I finally caught myself.

I let go of his shirt collar, "I think Miroku's beginning to rub off on you"

Inuyasha smirked, "what makes you think it's not the other way around?"

Once again my jaw dropped, this time thought, I didn't catch myself, actually I didn't close my mouth until a fly flew into it and landed on my tongue, which I spit out instantaneously.

Then I remembered why I had been gawking and I scooted a few inches away from Inuyasha.

"Oh come on Kagome I was kidding"

"Sure you were" I said not looking at him and desperately trying not to laugh.

"I was" he said with a bit of annoyance in his voice.

"I believe you" I turned my face a little away from Inuyasha so he couldn't see the ends of my mouth twitch.

"Ok then" he sighed, "I guess you wouldn't want to take a pervert like me to meet your friends"

"Really you'll come?" I instantly forgot about the Miroku thing and smiled.

"He smiled back, "Of coarse Kagome" then he grinned evilly, "that way I can get all the embarrassing information I'll ever need to know about you" he smirked.

I went pale, 'he wouldn't dare, ok maybe he would'

A/N Hello I know you all are about to ring my throat, but I got grounded again, I can't even remember why, I believe it had something to do with a jug of hot sauce.

Anywho, I'm going to try extra hard to make up for the chapters I missed while being grounded.

Also a side note, I intend to make everyone's last name begin with an H, Hojo's last name actually is Hojo, so I don't got a problem there, Sango is going to be Hiratsaku (I know I didn't spell that right) Yura's is going to be, well Hair (no her middle name is not of the), I don't know what to do for Kouga's, or Shippou's last name.

Oh yeah, well when I was grounded I had some spare time on my hands, so have you heard the song I went to the animal fair-

I went to the animal fair And (someone's name here) was there, The Big baboon, By the light of the moon Was combing his auburn hair The monkey he got drunk And sat on the elephant's trunk The elephant sneezed And fell to his knees And that was the end of the monk, the monk, the monk

So I messed with the lyrics a little

I went to the Feudal Ere And Inuyasha the Hanyou was there The little Shippou, By the piles of snow Was combing his auburn hair The Miroku, he got drunk And patted the Kagome's butt Inuyasha got mad And hurt him real bad And that was the end of the monk, the monk, the monk

Ok so that was pathetic, but hey what can I say, I was bored and grounded. Thanx
