Here is the next chapter and I hope it will meet your standards like usual.
I loved everyone's reviews and it always cheers me and motivates me when I
read them. So thank you. I hope you enjoy! @_@ And people I am so sorry
that I make you wait. I am going to try to update every week but please
bear with me. I will tell myself, 'You gotta' update, Buggy,' but then I
get off in my own little world. *bows* Please forgive me.
We All Watch the Same Sunsets
Kagome walked to her first class with her head bowed down not wanting to meet the faces of her classmates. She had found that her story was not only in the rags but also in important magazines like People and the Entertainment magazine. Everyone knew, too.
Kagome entered her first classroom and sat in her usual seat except everyone moved away from her, sneering at her. She should have realized they didn't like rich kids like her because they were.... well, poor.
"Why don't you go back to private school, snob?" one classmate derided.
"Yeah, there they don't have any of us filthy, poor bastards, because isn't that what ya' think?"
The taunts continued and Kagome could feel tears beginning to form in her eyes. Just the other day, these were the people feeling sorry for Inuyasha making fun of her while they were going out and now... now, they scorned her like she was some type of disease.
"We don't need your charity and we don't need you," a familiar voice rang out and Kagome looked up to see it was Sango. The look Sango gave her made Kagome break inside and just want to run though that look would haunt her. She kept in her seat waiting for the bell to ring and the teacher to come in to calm down the class.
The bell finally rang after what seemed to be an eternity. "Settle down everyone. I know you must be angry for the.... deception but this will not disrupt my class. Understand?"
Everyone nodded while Kagome thought, 'Oh great, even the teachers have turned on me. I didn't think what I did was too bad. All I wanted was the chance of having a normal life.'
Kagome did not think she would last until lunch. The class hours rolled slowly and the students' stares burned holes into her skin. She wanted to tell them that she wasn't using them or anything but she knew they wouldn't believe a word she said. They thought she had already lied to them enough.
Kagome sat alone in a corner table at lunch. Though chatter surrounded her, Kagome was completely silent except for the sound of her fork pushing her food around her plate. That was when she felt something small and fuzzy give her a hug.
Kagome turned around to see Shippo and Miroku standing there. "What are you guys doing? Don't you hate me like everyone else?" she gasped.
Miroku shook his head and Shippo exclaimed, "Of course not, Kagome! We could never hate you. You are our friend and that means that we don't care if you are rich or poor." Kagome smiled at this and motioned for them to sit down.
"We know what it feels like to be treated this way, too and we know it isn't nice to face it alone," Miroku told Kagome setting his tray across from hers.
"I was a home-schooled kid and I wanted to go to public school. My parents finally let me and when I got there, people were mad at me for being to smart. In my opinion, you are more stupid then your IQ says if you judge people on their smarts on money," Shippo said thoughtfully plopping a grape into his mouth making the serious guy seem cute again.
"Well, I got beat up several times for being so good but unlike Shippo, I gave into the pressure and as you know, I became your loving pervert." Kagome stared at Miroku incredulously. Miroku good? She didn't even think those two words should go in the same sentence. "Your mouth is hanging open, Kagome."
Kagome blushed. "Sorry. That last thing was just really hard to believe."
"Why does everyone say that?" Miroku sighed and Kagome laughed.
"But just to let you know, I am still going to kill my sister when I get home," Kagome informed the two.
"Go get her, Kagome!" Shippo cheered while Miroku said, "I won't stop you. I only ask you if I can watch. I love catfights seeing hot girls get sweaty and on each other and.... AH! What was that for?"
"For being a pervert," both Shippo and Kagome stated after Kagome slapped him hard. "I have a strange bunch of friends but I love them."

Kagome stomped into her house.... er, mansion ready to give Kikyo the beating of her life. Lunchtime had given her the boost of confidence to make it through the day and she was ready to let her anger out.
But the sight she saw when she came in nearly broke her heart. Rin was sobbing mercilessly on the couch surrounded by dirty tissues while soap operas played on the TV. Kagome had forgotten about Rin and now felt really bad. She remembered Rin's only friend had been Inuyasha's older brother, Sesshomaru and Kagome took it that he wasn't nice at all.
"Rin, are you going to be all right?" Kagome cooed brushing some tissues off the couch so she could sit. Rin only wailed harder burying her head into Kagome's shoulder. "What happened?"
"I came to school and Sesshy... I mean Sesshomaru immediately confronted me about the sto... story. I didn't know what he was talking about and he got even more angry and he told me that he... he hated me and he never wanted to see me ever again!" Rin cried. "Why did Kikyo have to do this, Kagome? I was finally happy. I was never happy before and now... that bitch had to go and ruin it for me and you!" Kagome stared wide-eyed at Rin. She had never heard Rin say one bad word in her life. She knew that Rin was even more upset at Kikyo then her for Rin had never had a real friend before. Kagome had been nice to Rin but they never were close.
"Don't worry, Rin. I'll get Kikyo for you," Kagome told her soothingly and for the first time in her life, sisterly. Kagome carefully got off the couch setting another tissue paper box, which a maid must have brought, closer to Rin. She gave Rin a small reassuring smile before going towards the stairs.
"Kikyo!" Kagome yelled when she near the end of the very long stairs. "I will kick your bitchy ass until you wish that you never ever gave our story up!" She slammed open Kikyo's door to see Kikyo sitting on her bed doing her nails like nothing had happened.
"Oh, hello, Kagome. I see you saw my story or should I say, stories. I hope you found them quite interesting for I certainly did," Kikyo told her laughing at the end like a wicked stepmother from a fairytale.
"This isn't funny, Kikyo! This isn't your usual prank for you didn't just hurt me this time but Rin, too! Did you think about that?"
"Of course, I came to the conclusion that since she took the same path as you, she should suffer the same fate. But I don't see why you two are so upset over losing those underlings," Kikyo told her saying underlings like it was going to make her puke.
"I'm going to kill you!" Kagome screamed launching her self at Kikyo. The two tussled, Kagome hitting Kikyo the most until the two were pulled apart. Kagome still fought like a wild tiger though one of the bodyguards held her back.
"Kagome, what has ever gotten into you?" Kagome's mother gasped as she entered the room.
"Mother, that bitch you call a daughter ruined my life and she doesn't care! And I will get her for it!"
"Kagome, you will not get anyone for anything and yes she is my daughter but I don't know anymore about you. You are violent, you cuss, your styles changed." Kagome's mother lectured. "I know what Kikyo did was not right but you can't start acting like this every time your sister does something mean. Sisters do mean things, it is in their natures."
Kagome nodded solemnly as she calmed down. "Now, Kagome. You will go to your room and think about your actions. I can't have you trying to kill your sister while I am alive and well here on this Earth."
"Yes, mother." Kagome walked depressingly to her room where she slammed the door and locked it.
Several hours later, Kagome heard something hitting her window. She looked through tear-stained eyes and saw it was small rocks. She became curious and opened her window a crack. She looked down to see Inuyasha with a bandana wrapped around his head hiding his hair. He really wasn't the person she wanted to see at the moment.
"Go away Inuyasha!" she yelled at him.
"Not until I hear an apology!"
"For what? For me lying about my wealth though I never talked about my social status before? For wanting a normal life? For wanting to go to normal school? What the hell do you want me to apologize about?"
"I don't care about that shit, Kagome. I just want you to apologize about dying my beautiful hair pink." Kagome had totally forgotten about that.
"Okay, I'm sorry for dying your hair pink. Now will you leave me alone?" Kagome sobbed.
"Are... are you crying."
"Yes."
"Oh, shit. You know I can't leave a girl alone who's crying, Kagome. What is wrong?"
"Everyone hates me except for Shippo and Miroku at school. My mother thinks I am nuts and I am going to be stuck with Kikyo for the rest of my life. And all I wanted was just a normal life!"
It was silent for a moment, until Inuyasha said, "Come with me."
"What?"
"Come with me. We are even now for the other things and I can't leave an upset girl with a bitch so come with me."
"Are you sure? What about Sesshomaru?"
"Screw him. Grab some clothes and let's go."
Kagome couldn't believe she was doing this. Just the other day, she was really pissed off at him but she did dye his hair pink and felt bad about it. She shoved random clothing into a bag and dropped it out her window down on the ground.
"Now are you going to catch me?" she asked unsure.
"Of course, you are only coming from the second floor," Inuyasha told her reassuringly. He didn't know why he was doing this either but we all know he has a weakness for crying girls.
Kagome closed her eyes tight and jumped. A moment later, she felt herself in a pair of very muscular arms. "You caught me!" she gasped wringing her arms around his neck.
"Yah, yah lets go!" Inuyasha said setting her on the ground hoping Kagome wouldn't get too much more emotional.
"I have to do one last thing, first."
"What?"
"This." Kagome grabbed the bandana off his head and squealed, "Your hair is so cute!" Inuyasha blushed really embarrassed grabbing his bandana back.
"I hate myself."
