Well, on with the story now, lol.

"That, was for the paint. The whip-cream. And all other pranks you have
done on me, you ass." She got up from the floor, and looked at his face.
It was full of anger, hatred, and.... betrayal?
"You... how could you PULL such a prank like that? Mine aren't
even that bad!" He said, angrily. "I'm not talking about me hair you insensitive
wench! I'm talking about what you did before that! BEFORE!"
He shouted.
Kagome just looked at him, stunned. She had in a way betrayed him, like
that. She..was sorry. "Inuyasha.. I.."
"Don't even START! I don't want to hear it! I will NEVER
be your friend, I will NEVER talk to you, ever AGAIN!" He
stood up, and slapped her.
He slapped, Kagome.
She looked up to him, holding the spot where he slapped. She was on
the brink of tears, not because of the sting in her cheek, but the sting
of his words.
He stood back from her, and looked at her straight in the eye's. Like
he was looking right into her soul when he said, "I hate you. From the
bottom of my heart."
He walked out.
Kagome, stood frozen in place, and she fell to her knees. Miroku and
Sango rushed in to comfort her, but Kagome was in no need of comfort. Her
eye's were just wide, and she was stunned. Why? Why did it hurt so much?
Because, the friendship that could have been, was officially..
...broken.

Broken
When the,
World is turning for you,
Don't turn on me.
Who are you here to repair?
Well I don't know what you mean.
You could never resist,
Glorifying despair.
Well now it's coming to you and I don't really care,
She said,
Thanks but I'm broken.
I guess,
You must have misspoken.
What a laugh.

Kagome, Miroku, and Sango went back to class. Sango and Miroku acted
like nothing had happened, but Kagome was another story. She was in shock,
and just walked like she was a robot. Nothing amused her, nothing confused
her. She was broken. A broken person, with a broken soul.
She talked monotone, and wouldn't look anyone in the eye's. When she
did, she was lifeless. Nothing, could help her.
***
The teacher's went on with life, and taught their lessons. Kagome listened,
but took no note of it. She couldn't concentrate, she couldn't hear the
sounds around her. Nothing. It was like she was trapped. Only one thing
could save her now, but, he would not help her.
Miroku turned to her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Kagome.. tell
me. Please.. why has this effected you so much? You and Inuyasha hate each
other, this should not be anything different.." He said, comfortingly.
She looked up to him, and said the truth. "Because, I believe that I
may have loved him." Miroku let go of her instantly and went wide-eyed.
"What...did you just say...?" He said, voice getting shaky.
"You heard me, Miroku." She said, lifelessly. "And now, its over. No
matter what I do, no matter what I say, he hates me. I can't do
anything about it. I will remain this way as a punishment." She closed
her eyes, and relaxed.
"Kagome... how could you have.. within two..days?" He said, with disbelief.
"Its not possible! You can't just fall in love like that! It doesn't happen
that quick! It takes time, maybe even years! This couldn't have happened
within two days, not any reason can prove it either-" He was cut off.
"I have a reason. I think I may have loved him already, but didn't bring
myself to admit it because of the pranks he played on me. I wanted to hide
the feeling, because I knew it would never work out. Him hating me and
all. And now, when it resurfaced, was when I had to do that bet for Sango.
My fears came true." She finished looking him seriously in the eye.
She then, out of the blue, jumped into Miroku's arm's and cried. She
let it all go, since the incident. She couldn't hold it in any longer,
it was corrupting her body, as well as her soul. Miroku put his arms around
her, comforting her also. They were always best friends, and they always
would be. This was a bond, that would not be broken.
Sango, overheard it all, and couldn't help but come to Kagome's aid
also. "This.. is all my fault. I shouldn't have made that bet. I shouldn't
have.." She said, sorrow apparent in her voice.
Kagome looked over at Sango. "Its.. okay. It was my fault for taking
the bet, and having it backfire on me." She said, trying to hold in the
rest of her sobs.
"Oh Kagome.." Sango comforted her friend.
They were all at lunch now, and Inuyasha, was no where to be found.
***
"Why! Why! Why! Why! WHY!" Inuyasha pounded on the boy's bathroom
wall. "Why.."
He looked at himself in the mirror. He had become pathetic. Being with
that girl. It was time for a change, he was going to be normal. Like he
once was, the playboy. Nothing to care for, nothing to even worry about.
He jerked up, and punched the mirror, shattering it to pieces, leaving
his blood to scatter on the floor.
Unlike Kagome, he was cracked. But not broken.
He walked out, head held high. He would act, as this never happened.
But, would still hold the grudge he would carry to his grave on Kagome.
***
Everything was ruined. She couldn't believe how life was perfect forty-eight
hours ago, and now terrible. Life had it's set-back's after all. This was
one of them.
She waited in the lunch line to get her food. She grabbed for a tray,
and was kindly handed a lunch. She paid for it, and was walking to the
table where Miroku and Sango were, when she was pushed over, and fell to
the ground.
Her lunch tray had flown over upon Kikyou's head. "Higurashi..."
She didn't have time for her, just who ever had the nerve to push her.
She looked ahead of her, and gasped.
"Inu..yasha.." She said, looking at his back. He was talking to Miroku
and Sango just like it was any other day, and laughing with him. She, felt
very out of place. She didn't notice the sadness in her friend Sango's
eye's, just the laughter.
She couldn't walk over there now, she couldn't act like it was "okay,"
she did the last thing she thought she would ever do. "Kikyou.. come here.."
Kikyou walked over to her, clearly pissed. "What do you want?" She said,
glaring at her.
"I want you to hurt me. I want to be knocked unconscious. I can't bear
the pain I feel anymore. Please."
"It would be my pleasure." She drew back a fist, and punched Kagome.
Her body flew all the way across the cafeteria room, and everyone was silenced.
Kikyou walked over to Kagome, and began punching her like a punching
bag. Kagome didn't move, or try to retaliate. She just let Kikyou do her
work. Nothing could compare with the pain she felt, so she let Kikyou help
her.
A low menacing growl rose in the room, and gasps were heard. The room's
lights dimmed, and a dark tall figure walked up to the two. The growl was
still audible, and it was like death, itself. "Let go." He said, simply.
Kikyou didn't do it. "Who the hell do you think you are? Ordering me
around like that! There is nothing going on between us anymore, and I don't
ever want anything to happen again!" She snarled at him.
"Let go of Kagome. NOW!" He ordered. He was in NO mood
to see this. He didn't even know WHY he was doing this!
"And what are you going to do if I don't, bastard?" Kikyou said,
still holding Kagome in her grip. Kagome was on the brink of reality and
unconsciousness. She couldn't tell what was going on.
"This." He pulled his fist back, and punched Kikyou in the jaw-line,
and sent her flying to the other side of the room. He picked Kagome up,
and ran out of the room.

AN: Hm.. what will happen next? And is who picked her up who we think it is? Maybe its not.. wait and see.. ^.-
For the million people who asked me, and who don't look in my profile, this story is 13 orders (chapters) long. Short, but sweet. But, a newer one will be coming out after this.. Soakin' Up The Sun! A total of 15 sessions (chapters). I like to re-name "Chapter" to something different.. it gives the story that extra-kick! ^^
