Chapter 2
~
Kgaome woke up bright and early the next day. She wanted to have as much time to get ready as possible. Dressing to impress wasn't one of Kagome's strong points, but she tried.
She was so excited today as it being the day that Sango would come to her school. Kagome spent 45 minutes in the bathroom that morning. 30 minutes for a shower, and 15 minutes for her regular morning ritual.
When Kagome was in the shower, she had practiced what she would say over and over again hoping when the time comes and she would have open her mouth, nothing idiotic would come out and she wouldn't sound like a total loser.
Stepping out into her room, Kagome marched over to her closet to see what was suitable to wear.
'Hmmm... Lets see what I can wear... I could always wear my blue skirt with the white flowers and a white sleeveless shirt with my pink wool sweater.'
Once Kagome had on her ensemble, she went to her full body mirror and modeled infront of it. 'This is perfect!'
Kagome pulled her hair back into the usual bun, grabbed her back pack and headed towards the kitchen for breakfast.
Once she arrived, Kagome saw that her mother was cooking some pancakes while her younger brother and her Grandpa were eating.
Kagome went over to her mother and gave her a hug and a peck on the cheek.
"Good morning darling." Mrs. Higurashi greeted her daughter. "You look lovely and your wearing that cute skirt I bought you. So what inspired you to dress up hmmm?"
"Mom, I'm not dressing up. This is how I always look." Kagome replied simply though inside her head she wondered how her mom could be so right.
"I'm just teasing Kagome." Her mother answered with a smile.
Kagome smiled back at her. "I know."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome had just arrived at school when she heard someone call her name.
'Now who in the world would want to talk to me.' Kagome thought as she started to look around for the sound of the voice.
"Kagome!!"
Kagome looked in the direction the sound came from and what did she see? None other than Sango running towards her. A huge smile appeared on Kagome's face.
"Sango!"
Sango was wearing a pair of baggy dark green pants with a whole bunch of pockets and straps on it. She also had on a white tank top with and a weird necklace.
"I'm so glad I found you! This school looks really big and I'll probably get lost. Phew." Sango said between gasps of air when she had reached Kagome.
Kagome took in a deep breath. 'Just relax you've talked to her before and its not like you haven't had a friend before. Wait, you haven't, aww, just screw it. Here goes.'
"H-hi Sango!"
"So! Can I see your schedule?" Asked Sango.
Kagome started to dig through her backpack. "Sure. Umm, here it is!"
Sango took a look and her eyes went wide. "Yay! We have all the same classes! I'm so relieved I'm not gonna get lost. Even if I do, I'll just follow you around."
Kagome laughed. "Sure."
"Hello again Kagome."
Kagome almost jumped at the new voice. Looking behind Sango she saw it was Miroku. "Hi Miroku!"
"So I see that you shall be in my class also as seeing that I have all the same classes as Sango." Miorku said while wrapping his arm around Sango's waist.
"Really? Cool."
Miroku smiled and inched his hand lower on his girlfriend's back.
*Rub*
*Rub*
*Rub*
Kagome saw that Sango's eye was twitching and eyed her curiously.
*Bam*
"Pervert!" Screamed Sango whose face was red from anger. "Come on Kagome, lets go. Lets leave the perv!" Sango said hotly.
Sango pushed through the front doors and started to walk to who knows where. Kagome kept looking back at the door uneasily. "Umm, Sango, do you think you should have hit him that hard? I mean he's lying there unconscious and swirly eyed."
"He'll be fine. It'll only be a couple more minutes until he regains consciousness." Sango answered her with a smile.
"Um, OK, so were going to be heading to Trigon-" Kagome hadn't had time to finish her sentence when she crashed into someone.
'God, whats is it with me and bumping into people?!'
"Hey, you OK?" Asked the person.
Kagome looked up.
"Y-yeah, I'm f-fine. S-sorry I bumped i-into you I-Inuyasha." She stuttered.
"Hey Inu. Whats up? Where are you headed?" Sango greeted her friend happily.
"Hey Sango. Nothing much. I'm headed to Calculus. Fun, fun, fun! Say, wheres Miorku? Wait. Let me guess, lying somewhere unconscious because he groped you, am I right, or am I right?"
"Yeah, your right."
Inuyasha turned to Kagome who had been awfully quiet. "So Kagome, do you have the same classes as Sango or what?"
"Huh?" Was her smart reply.
"I said do you have the same classes as Sango or what?" Inuyasha repeated.
Kagome regained her composure. She took in a deep breath like the one before. "Yeah. I do."
"Cool. Well I gotta go. See ya later! And tell Miroku to meet me in the cafeteria at lunch or I'l have his ass!" Inuyasha yelled back over his sholder as he walked away.
"Sure! But make sure you save some ass whooping for me too!" Sango yelled back. "OK! SO lets head of to....um...whats the class?"
Kagome sweatdropped. "Trigonometry."
"Right. Now which way?"
"That way." Kagome said pointing to the left.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ugghh! That was so hard and so boring!" Sango exclaimed throwing her hands in the air for emphasis.
Kagome giggled. "Its wasn't that hard or that boring."
"Yeah, well easy for you to say Miss. I am the Smartest of the Smart. You a whiz! And you've had this before I came."
"A day! Not that long."
"Yeah, yeah. So what do we have next?"
"Biology." Kagome answered. After hanging around Sango for a short while, Kagome had gotten so used to her. She was acting more and more like herself with every passing minute. It was like they've been friends for ever. It was like they were best friends.
"No! Not another boring subject!" Sango moaned.
"Come on Sango." Kagome and Sango started walking upstairs towards the science lab. They were turning a corner when Kagome came to a sudden stop which caused Sango to bump into her from behind.
"Ommph! Hey, why'd you stop Kagome?" Asked Sango.
"Umm, maybe we should go another way. This way is to....um...crowded."
Sango looked over Kagome's shoulder and saw only a couple of girls leaning against the lockers on either side. "Kagome, what are you takling about? Theres only like 4 or 5 girls. Anyways, come on! As much as I hate boring useless classes, I don't wanna be late!" Sango grabbed Kagome's arm and dragged her forward.
"No! Sango, you don't understand! Stop!" Kagome pleaded but Sango just ignored all of it.
"I don't get why you don't want to go this way. Sheesh." Sango said as she kept on dragging Kagome down that hall.
Suddenly all of the girls on the wall stood right in their way. "Where do you think your going Higurashi? I hope you don't think that even though Inuyasha defended you and took you out for a drink doesn't mean your popular now. Your still a loser." The girl in the middle said.
Sango looked from the girls blocking their way to Kagome and back again. 'That girl had just insulted Kagome and she doesn't even defend herself! Well if she won't I will!' "Hey you! What the heck do you think your doing? We need to get to class! And what fucking right do you have to think you can insult Kagome like that?" Sango said feeling her anger rising.
"Do you know who I am to talk to me like that? Hmmph, I haven't seen you before but I bet your a geek like Higurashi too. And my name is Kikyo. Remember it."
"Whatever, well Kikyo, I don't know who you are and personally I don't care! And offcourse you haven't seen me before, I'm new. We are not geeks! Were people! And what are you? The popular cheerleading prep?"
"Actually I am the most popular girl in this school and no duh I'm a cheerleader. Now I have to ask you, what fucking right do you have to talk to me like that? After I'm finished with you, I'm gonna get my boyfriend after you bitches!" Kikyo yelled glaring at Sango.
"Hmmmph like you could finish us up. And anyways even if your boyfriend comes after us, I'll kick his ass!"
Kagome couldn't believe what was happening, Sango's first day and shes already on Kikyo's bad list. 'This is all my fault! Kikyo is going to name Sango an official geek because of me! Oh no! I better try and stop this.' "Umm, Sango, come on, its no problem, we can go another way. We have plenty of time. Lets just leave."
"No Kagome! I'm not going to let this bitch boss you around!" Sango told Kagome firmly.
"Ha, just like you Higurashi, as chicken as ever! And you, Sango or whatever your name is, like you can stop whatever I do." Kikyo replied arrogantly.
"You wanna go?" Sango asked pissed.
"Come on Sango, lets go. Please. You don't want to get into trouble." Kagome pleaded again.
"Oh, you think you could stand a chance against me? I'll kick the shit out of you."
"Sure, what are you going to do, use your all powerful pompoms?" Sango replied sarcastically.
Kagome, who was standing beside Sango, went infront of her and grabbed her shoulders. "Sango come on! You cannot get suspended for fighting on your first day! Lets go. Now."
Kagome had said that so firmly Sango had no choice but to agree. She sighed. "Fine, but if this bitch ever comes near me again, I swear I'll kick the shit out of her."
"Ha, chicken? I guess wenches don't have any backbone." Kikyo taunted.
"Hey! Slut! If it weren't for Kagome, you'd be in the hospital right now." Sango said though gritted teeth.
"Come on, lets go." Kagome dragged Sango away before Kikyo could say anything more.
Once they were in another hallway Sango decided to ask for an explanation. "Kagome, why are you so scared of her? And why didn't you let me put that slut in her place?"
Kagome sighed. "Sango, I've went to school with her all my life and she has always been the most popular girl. She doesn't pick on a lot of people. She only picks on me for some reason. She hates my guts. She beats me up, insults me, humiliates me and anything she can do to make me feel bad about myself. I learn to take it and not let it show that...that...it hurts."
Sango was shocked at what Kagome said and her words didn't make her less angry. Now she wanted to kill the bitch. Sango listened intently at what else Kagome was starting to say. "Please, I don't want you to be ridiculed because of me. I would feel terrible if I was the reason I crushed your social status chances. I...I think you shouldn't hang around me anymore. Your already on Kikyo's bad list and she'll probably pick on you as she does me." Kagome said sadly. There goes her friend.
"No." Sango replied firmly.
Kagome looked up shocked. "W-what did you say?"
"I said no. I'm not going to leave you alone. I thought that when I met Kikyo that she only treats you like this occasionally and not often, but I know now that she does this all the time. I'm not going to leave you." Sango said her voice sounding as if she was about to cry. "You endured enough and I'm sorry to say but you don't even defend yourself Kagome! I'm here to do that. And I'll teach you how to do it yourself so you can kick the bitch's ass someday." Sango smiled. "Then I'll be the one backing you up. I'm your friend and I'll stay you friend. I'm here for you."
Kagome was about to cry. Never in her whole lifetime had Kagome heard someone say something so sweet to her. Someone actually said she was her friend. Someone wasn't afraid to hang out with her just because she was declared a geek. Someone cared. Kagome lunged forward and hugged Sango tightly and Sango returned the hug.
"T-thank you." Kagome whispered.
"No problem." Sango said smiling. "But you have to do something for me. And you have to promise to do so."
Kagome let go of her. "Sure."
"You have to get your confidence up and your courage and you have to learn to defend yourself. Got that?" Sango said while sporting a playful smirk.
Kagome smiled back. "Got it."
"You know were late. And its my first day too. And I also got into an almost physical fight with the most popular, most slutty and most bitchy girl in school. I'm off to a pretty good start, don't you think?"
"Yeah, I think so. Come on, lets get to class and sit there for the rest of it."
"Fun."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Damn Miroku, took ya long enough!"
"Well there were some 'distractions' along the way here. I just couldn't help but stop and check them out Inuyasha."
"Would these distractions be girls who look like groping material? You have a girlfriend man and you still do this kinda stuff. Dude, your gonna get dumped real soon."
"You know I only love Sango. Its just my hand, Its cursed I tell ya." (A/N Lol, hehe...)
"Whatever." Inuyasha took a seat at his table and Miroku soon followed suit. "Say, where is Sango in the first place?"
"Shes with Kagome right now. Man, those two seem like they've known each other for ever. Anyways, did you know they were late for Biology today? Like 30 minutes late. So anyways, about Kagome I was wondering when you suddenly became friends with her. I know you man its not like you to just befriend a girl who, I don't mean to be rude here but is kinda, umm, not popular?" Miorku asked.
"You know its not uncommon for people to be late and if they become friends in a short time. About Kagome, I defended her yesturday when Kikyo was picking on her. She doesn't even defend herself, she just takes whatever Kikyos says. So what? Shes not popular, big deal." Inuyasha replied.
"I see."
"Hey Miroku! Hey Inuyasha!"
The two metioned turned around to see Sango dragging a complaining Kagome towards them.
"Hey." The two replied in unison.
Sango forced Kagome to take a seat and ploppd down herself after Kagome. "So whats up?"
Inuyasha and Miroku eyed ther two curiously. "Nothing." They said at the same time.
Miroku took a sip of his drink and swallowed quickly. "Oh! I was meaning to ask you, why were you guys so late for Biology?"
Kagome looked at Sango and Sango looked at Kagome as if seeing if it was OK with one another to tell the guys. Sango blinked her eyes as if telling Kagome to tell them. Kagome just stared at Sango like she just sprouted another eye. Sango stared back like saying 'if you don't tell them, you better watch your back from now on' Kagome sighed in defeat.
She turned towards to face the two boys at the table. "Umm, we umm, kinda.....had, a little.....unpleasant en-encounter with someone."
Inuyasha focused on Kagome. He had been too intent on watching the two girls talk with theirs eyes. Girls were weird. "Who?"
Kagome looked at Inuyasha uneasily. "Umm...Kikyo."
Inuyasha raised his eyebrow. "Again?"
Sango looked at Inuyasha curiously. "How do you know?"
Inuyasha turned his attention to Sango. "Oh, Kagome and an 'unpleasant' encounter with Kikyo yesturday morning."
"That bitch is so asking for her ass to be kicked." Sango said darkly.
"Wouldn't do that if I were you. One, her father is pretty powerful, two, shes able to get him to do anything she wishes, three, you wouldn't want your family to get hurt, and four, shes my girlfriend." Inuyasha casually replied.
Kagome felt her heart tighten when Inuyasha said the word 'girlfriend'. 'Damn, doesn't the guy know how awful she is?'
Sango was wide-eyed. "Y-your her b-boyfriend?" Sango asked in disbalief.
"Ya."
Sango's shock finally passed away and replaced with annoyance and anger. "You idiot! When I told you to get a girlfriend all those years ago, I meant one who is sweet, caring, doesn't take you shit, has a brain, not one of those ditzes, and pretty if you want! I didn't mean pick someone like that bitch!"
"Don't talk about her like that. I know she has her flaws, but you don't know her. The real her. The way she acts towards other people is different than the way she acts around me." Inuyasha said seriously.
Kagome felt her heart tighten again. 'You idiot! Thats an act she puts on around you and thats her true self when shes with other people!! Why do you like this guy again?!' Kagome's little voice said.
"Who let you guys sit here?" Came an all too fimiliar voice.
Inuyasha and Miroku looked up and Kagome and Sango turned around to see a pissed off Kikyo standing there with her hands on her hips. (A/N Kagome and Sango are sitting across from the guys.)
"Well its a free country ain't it?" Sango said her anger rising.
Kikyo turned her attention towards Inuyasha. "Inuyasha honey, can you get the two below all of us out of here. They're contaminating the clean air." Kikyo said 'sweetly'
"Kikyo, just sit beside them or beside me. Don't have to be so cruel." Inuyasha answered his brows furrowed.
Kikyo noticed and told her mind to start thinking of an excuse. "Sorry Inu honey, I'm just a little cranky because of my classes. Stupid teachers." She sat down on the other side of Inuyasha and leaned in for a kiss which Inuyasha returned offcourse.
Kagome couldn't watch and turned away. It was too hard to watch. Sango did the same but for different reasons. She just didn't want to see those two together. It was too disgusting.
Miroku looked kinda peeved. Someone actually insulted his girlfriend. To make matters worse, it was his bestfriend's girlfriend who did it. He too, tried to ignore the two.
Inuyasha broke the kiss. (A/N Finally! Sorry to all Kikyo haters to have her kiss Inuyasha but its all part of the fic...she'll get what she deserves..)
"Well Inu honey, I have to go. Daddy's taking me to Paris to shop! Isn't that great? Well I'll see you in a couple of days. Bye love!" After another kiss on the cheek, Kikyo walked off with her friend trailing behind her.
After he said bye to his girlfriend, Inuyasha turned back to the other three. "So guys, wanna do something after school?"
Miroku, who was the first to turn around answered. "Sure, but Inuyasha can I ask you something, what do you see in her? Sure shes good looking, but shes a, not to be rude, bitch. She insulted Sango and Kagome and she relates to them as dirt."
"Miroku, Sango, Kagome, I'm sorry but I just can't help it. Thats her and I told you already, she doesn't act this way around me. OK?"
"Yeah, whatever, so about doing something, what do you wanna do?" Sango asked.
"I donno." Answered Miroku.
"Me either."
"What about you Kagome?" Sango said turning to her friend.
"How about we go to the mall?" Kagome answered without sturttering or sounding nervous. Sango had noticed and gave Kagome a huge smile.
"Great idea! What do you guys think?"
"Sure." They guys replied.

"Yeah, yeah. So what do we have next?"
"Biology." Kagome answered. After hanging around Sango for a short while, Kagome had gotten so used to her. She was acting more and more like herself with every passing minute. It was like they've been friends for ever. It was like they were best friends.
"No! Not another boring subject!" Sango moaned.
"Come on Sango." Kagome and Sango started walking upstairs towards the science lab. They were turning a corner when Kagome came to a sudden stop which caused Sango to bump into her from behind.
"Ommph! Hey, why'd you stop Kagome?" Asked Sango.
"Umm, maybe we should go another way. This way is to....um...crowded."
Sango looked over Kagome's shoulder and saw only a couple of girls leaning against the lockers on either side. "Kagome, what are you takling about? Theres only like 4 or 5 girls. Anyways, come on! As much as I hate boring useless classes, I don't wanna be late!" Sango grabbed Kagome's arm and dragged her forward.
"No! Sango, you don't understand! Stop!" Kagome pleaded but Sango just ignored all of it.
"I don't get why you don't want to go this way. Sheesh." Sango said as she kept on dragging Kagome down that hall.
Suddenly all of the girls on the wall stood right in their way. "Where do you think your going Higurashi? I hope you don't think that even though Inuyasha defended you and took you out for a drink doesn't mean your popular now. Your still a loser." The girl in the middle said.
Sango looked from the girls blocking their way to Kagome and back again. 'That girl had just insulted Kagome and she doesn't even defend herself! Well if she won't I will!' "Hey you! What the heck do you think your doing? We need to get to class! And what fucking right do you have to think you can insult Kagome like that?" Sango said feeling her anger rising.
"Do you know who I am to talk to me like that? Hmmph, I haven't seen you before but I bet your a geek like Higurashi too. And my name is Kikyo. Remember it."
"Whatever, well Kikyo, I don't know who you are and personally I don't care! And offcourse you haven't seen me before, I'm new. We are not geeks! Were people! And what are you? The popular cheerleading prep?"
"Actually I am the most popular girl in this school and no duh I'm a cheerleader. Now I have to ask you, what fucking right do you have to talk to me like that? After I'm finished with you, I'm gonna get my boyfriend after you bitches!" Kikyo yelled glaring at Sango.
"Hmmmph like you could finish us up. And anyways even if your boyfriend comes after us, I'll kick his ass!"
Kagome couldn't believe what was happening, Sango's first day and shes already on Kikyo's bad list. 'This is all my fault! Kikyo is going to name Sango an official geek because of me! Oh no! I better try and stop this.' "Umm, Sango, come on, its no problem, we can go another way. We have plenty of time. Lets just leave."
"No Kagome! I'm not going to let this bitch boss you around!" Sango told Kagome firmly.
"Ha, just like you Higurashi, as chicken as ever! And you, Sango or whatever your name is, like you can stop whatever I do." Kikyo replied arrogantly.
"You wanna go?" Sango asked pissed.
"Come on Sango, lets go. Please. You don't want to get into trouble." Kagome pleaded again.
"Oh, you think you could stand a chance against me? I'll kick the shit out of you."
"Sure, what are you going to do, use your all powerful pompoms?" Sango replied sarcastically.
Kagome, who was standing beside Sango, went infront of her and grabbed her shoulders. "Sango come on! You cannot get suspended for fighting on your first day! Lets go. Now."
Kagome had said that so firmly Sango had no choice but to agree. She sighed. "Fine, but if this bitch ever comes near me again, I swear I'll kick the shit out of her."
"Ha, chicken? I guess wenches don't have any backbone." Kikyo taunted.
"Hey! Slut! If it weren't for Kagome, you'd be in the hospital right now." Sango said though gritted teeth.
"Come on, lets go." Kagome dragged Sango away before Kikyo could say anything more.
Once they were in another hallway Sango decided to ask for an explanation. "Kagome, why are you so scared of her? And why didn't you let me put that slut in her place?"
Kagome sighed. "Sango, I've went to school with her all my life and she has always been the most popular girl. She doesn't pick on a lot of people. She only picks on me for some reason. She hates my guts. She beats me up, insults me, humiliates me and anything she can do to make me feel bad about myself. I learn to take it and not let it show that...that...it hurts."
Sango was shocked at what Kagome said and her words didn't make her less angry. Now she wanted to kill the bitch. Sango listened intently at what else Kagome was starting to say. "Please, I don't want you to be ridiculed because of me. I would feel terrible if I was the reason I crushed your social status chances. I...I think you shouldn't hang around me anymore. Your already on Kikyo's bad list and she'll probably pick on you as she does me." Kagome said sadly. There goes her friend.
"No." Sango replied firmly.
Kagome looked up shocked. "W-what did you say?"
"I said no. I'm not going to leave you alone. I thought that when I met Kikyo that she only treats you like this occasionally and not often, but I know now that she does this all the time. I'm not going to leave you." Sango said her voice sounding as if she was about to cry. "You endured enough and I'm sorry to say but you don't even defend yourself Kagome! I'm here to do that. And I'll teach you how to do it yourself so you can kick the bitch's ass someday." Sango smiled. "Then I'll be the one backing you up. I'm your friend and I'll stay you friend. I'm here for you."
Kagome was about to cry. Never in her whole lifetime had Kagome heard someone say something so sweet to her. Someone actually said she was her friend. Someone wasn't afraid to hang out with her just because she was declared a geek. Someone cared. Kagome lunged forward and hugged Sango tightly and Sango returned the hug.
"T-thank you." Kagome whispered.
"No problem." Sango said smiling. "But you have to do something for me. And you have to promise to do so."
Kagome let go of her. "Sure."
"You have to get your confidence up and your courage and you have to learn to defend yourself. Got that?" Sango said while sporting a playful smirk.
Kagome smiled back. "Got it."
"You know were late. And its my first day too. And I also got into an almost physical fight with the most popular, most slutty and most bitchy girl in school. I'm off to a pretty good start, don't you think?"
"Yeah, I think so. Come on, lets get to class and sit there for the rest of it."
"Fun."

"Damn Miroku, took ya long enough!"
"Well there were some 'distractions' along the way here. I just couldn't help but stop and check them out Inuyasha."
"Would these distractions be girls who look like groping material? You have a girlfriend man and you still do this kinda stuff. Dude, your gonna get dumped real soon."
"You know I only love Sango. Its just my hand, Its cursed I tell ya." (A/N Lol, hehe...)
"Whatever." Inuyasha took a seat at his table and Miroku soon followed suit. "Say, where is Sango in the first place?"
"Shes with Kagome right now. Man, those two seem like they've known each other for ever. Anyways, did you know they were late for Biology today? Like 30 minutes late. So anyways, about Kagome I was wondering when you suddenly became friends with her. I know you man its not like you to just befriend a girl who, I don't mean to be rude here but is kinda, umm, not popular?" Miorku asked.
"You know its not uncommon for people to be late and if they become friends in a short time. About Kagome, I defended her yesturday when Kikyo was picking on her. She doesn't even defend herself, she just takes whatever Kikyos says. So what? Shes not popular, big deal." Inuyasha replied.
"I see."
"Hey Miroku! Hey Inuyasha!"
The two metioned turned around to see Sango dragging a complaining Kagome towards them.
"Hey." The two replied in unison.
Sango forced Kagome to take a seat and ploppd down herself after Kagome. "So whats up?"
Inuyasha and Miroku eyed ther two curiously. "Nothing." They said at the same time.
Miroku took a sip of his drink and swallowed quickly. "Oh! I was meaning to ask you, why were you guys so late for Biology?"
Kagome looked at Sango and Sango looked at Kagome as if seeing if it was OK with one another to tell the guys. Sango blinked her eyes as if telling Kagome to tell them. Kagome just stared at Sango like she just sprouted another eye. Sango stared back like saying 'if you don't tell them, you better watch your back from now on' Kagome sighed in defeat.
She turned towards to face the two boys at the table. "Umm, we umm, kinda.....had, a little.....unpleasant en-encounter with someone."
Inuyasha focused on Kagome. He had been too intent on watching the two girls talk with theirs eyes. Girls were weird. "Who?"
Kagome looked at Inuyasha uneasily. "Umm...Kikyo."
Inuyasha raised his eyebrow. "Again?"
Sango looked at Inuyasha curiously. "How do you know?"
Inuyasha turned his attention to Sango. "Oh, Kagome and an 'unpleasant' encounter with Kikyo yesturday morning."
"That bitch is so asking for her ass to be kicked." Sango said darkly.
"Wouldn't do that if I were you. One, her father is pretty powerful, two, shes able to get him to do anything she wishes, three, you wouldn't want your family to get hurt, and four, shes my girlfriend." Inuyasha casually replied.
Kagome felt her heart tighten when Inuyasha said the word 'girlfriend'. 'Damn, doesn't the guy know how awful she is?'
Sango was wide-eyed. "Y-your her b-boyfriend?" Sango asked in disbalief.
"Ya."
Sango's shock finally passed away and replaced with annoyance and anger. "You idiot! When I told you to get a girlfriend all those years ago, I meant one who is sweet, caring, doesn't take you shit, has a brain, not one of those ditzes, and pretty if you want! I didn't mean pick someone like that bitch!"
"Don't talk about her like that. I know she has her flaws, but you don't know her. The real her. The way she acts towards other people is different than the way she acts around me." Inuyasha said seriously.
Kagome felt her heart tighten again. 'You idiot! Thats an act she puts on around you and thats her true self when shes with other people!! Why do you like this guy again?!' Kagome's little voice said.
"Who let you guys sit here?" Came an all too fimiliar voice.
Inuyasha and Miroku looked up and Kagome and Sango turned around to see a pissed off Kikyo standing there with her hands on her hips. (A/N Kagome and Sango are sitting across from the guys.)
"Well its a free country ain't it?" Sango said her anger rising.
Kikyo turned her attention towards Inuyasha. "Inuyasha honey, can you get the two below all of us out of here. They're contaminating the clean air." Kikyo said 'sweetly'
"Kikyo, just sit beside them or beside me. Don't have to be so cruel." Inuyasha answered his brows furrowed.
Kikyo noticed and told her mind to start thinking of an excuse. "Sorry Inu honey, I'm just a little cranky because of my classes. Stupid teachers." She sat down on the other side of Inuyasha and leaned in for a kiss which Inuyasha returned offcourse.
Kagome couldn't watch and turned away. It was too hard to watch. Sango did the same but for different reasons. She just didn't want to see those two together. It was too disgusting.
Miroku looked kinda peeved. Someone actually insulted his girlfriend. To make matters worse, it was his bestfriend's girlfriend who did it. He too, tried to ignore the two.
Inuyasha broke the kiss. (A/N Finally! Sorry to all Kikyo haters to have her kiss Inuyasha but its all part of the fic...she'll get what she deserves..)
"Well Inu honey, I have to go. Daddy's taking me to Paris to shop! Isn't that great? Well I'll see you in a couple of days. Bye love!" After another kiss on the cheek, Kikyo walked off with her friend trailing behind her.
After he said bye to his girlfriend, Inuyasha turned back to the other three. "So guys, wanna do something after school?"
Miroku, who was the first to turn around answered. "Sure, but Inuyasha can I ask you something, what do you see in her? Sure shes good looking, but shes a, not to be rude, bitch. She insulted Sango and Kagome and she relates to them as dirt."
"Miroku, Sango, Kagome, I'm sorry but I just can't help it. Thats her and I told you already, she doesn't act this way around me. OK?"
"Yeah, whatever, so about doing something, what do you wanna do?" Sango asked.
"I donno." Answered Miroku.
"Me either."
"What about you Kagome?" Sango said turning to her friend.
"How about we go to the mall?" Kagome answered without sturttering or sounding nervous. Sango had noticed and gave Kagome a huge smile.
"Great idea! What do you guys think?"
"Sure." They guys replied.
