HI EVERYONE!!!!

Thank you all so much for your reviews!!! I'm feeling a lot better now and so I decided to give you another chappie!!!

SCHOOL IS OUT!!!!! I GET TO UPDATE MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you all for your concern about the whole hospital incident. For those of you who wondered, the doctor said it was a 'ruptured artery' in my nose. My nose wouldn't stop bleeding. The only time it hurt was when they stuck that thing up my nose to stop it from bleeding. Okay, so it is not the greatest thing to think about...but at least I am not in the hospital (again), right?

Also...I just got back from a month in Colorado, and I was unable to update. Sorry peoples!

Oh well...on with the story...

.....................

Okay, just to clear this up:

When Kagome saw Inuyasha open the door she was too shocked to do anything, so basically she was looking at his face for a second THEN she DID close her eyes. Now Inuyasha didn't have a bandanna on at the time, but Kagome was too shocked to even notice his ears(besides, his wet hair would blend it in anyways...).

Sorry, I should have been a little more clear on that. But don't worry...things will come out in later chapters...

.........

.........

"Hey...what's that?" Kagome asked as she pointed to a picture of a folded crispy-like thing with meat, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, and other toppings on it. Inuyasha looked at what she was pointing at.

"That's a taco." He said. "It is a pretty common Mexican dish. You know... living close to the Mexican border makes it easy to find a Hispanic dish."

Kagome and Inuyasha decided to get some Mexican food for dinner, so they went to a restaurant called 'Vale Luna,' which was on the campus. Inuyasha said that it gives the best Mexican food this side of town, and he also said that they just started doing take-out. (A/N: This isn't really considered a date...more like a way to introduce yourself, kinda.)

"Buenos noches!" A man came up to them ready to take their order. "For here or to go?"

"To go." Inuyasha said. Then he turned to Kagome. "So you have never had Mexican food before?"

"Nope." She said.

"So I take it you don't know what anything on the menu is, huh?"

"Nope."

"Should I recommend something or just take a guess?"

"I'll have what you have."

"Okay, then." He turned to the man. "Two orders of the Sanora Todo...and put a couple quesadias with it." They left when they got their food and walked back to the dorm.

They had been talking to each other a bit about their lives and family. Turns out that Inuyasha was born in Kyoto but lived in Osaka until he was seven. Then he moved to Tokyo for a year, and then back to Osaka. When he was 14 he moved to Arizona where he went to high school.

"So," Inuyasha said breaking the silence. "What courses are you thinking about taking?"

"Well, I want to work with animals." That caught Inuyasha's attention. "Probably a veterinarian for domestic animals, like dogs and cats. What about you?"

"Equestrian veterinary." He said proudly.

"Come again?"

"Equestrian veterinary." He said again. "A horse vet."

"Oh," Kagome said. "You like horses?"

"My life practically revolves around them!"

"Do you have any?"

"Yeah." He said. "Five. I see them every day."

"Really?" Kagome asked. "Can you take me to see them sometime?"

"Uh...sure" He said.

"Thanks!" She said cheerfully. Inuyasha just smiled.

'What is it about this girl?' He wondered, shaking his head.

They reached the dorm and set the bag on the counter. Kagome got them each a drink while Inuyasha got the food out. They sat down at the bar with very large, Styrofoam takeout boxes in front of them. Kagome looked at the size of it and then looked at Inuyasha.

"Is this really as big as it looks?" She asked him.

"Just look inside!"

Kagome didn't like the sound of that, but opened it anyways. Her eyes nearly popped out of her head. There was enough food in that box to feed a school!

"Wha...what is all this?" she asked.

"A little bit of everything." He said. "I usually get one and it lasts an entire week! See...it has mini tacos, enchiladas, tostados, chimichangas...everything in chibi size! That way you can see what you like and what you don't!"

'Clever...I guess.' Kagome thought. "But I don't eat this much in a month!!!"

"Don't worry!" He said. "Miroku loves Mexican and would always like to take any leftovers!"

"Miroku?"

"My friend," He said. "But watch out...He is the biggest pervert on campus!...Try those." He pointed to the taco. Kagome hesitated. "It's not poisonous!"

"I know it's not!" she said. "It just looks different..."

"Try it."

"Hold on."

"Come on, it won't bite."

"Just wait a moment..." And that is how they went. Kagome finally tried it and liked some of it. The rest she gave to Inuyasha.

And so they talked and after they were full they went to deliver some of the food to Miroku. When Inuyasha stopped at a room Kagome looked at the number...132.

"This is your friend's dorm???" Kagome asked, then faced it. "SANGO!!!!!" Kagome yelled through the door.

"You know his room mate?" Inuyasha asked

"I've only known her since the fifth grade!" She said.

SMASH

"YOU JERK!!!" they heard a girl's voice scream. "GET BACK HERE YOU BASTARD SO I CAN BLOW YOU UP!!!"

"Dear Sango," a boy said. "Now why would you want to do that?"

BANG!

SMASH!

POW!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Kagome and Inuyasha sweat-dropped. Kagome knocked. And she heard running to the door.

"It's for me!"

"No, It's for me!"

"It's for me, and besides, I was here first." Sango opened the door. "Hi Kagome!"

"Oi, Yasha," Miroku called from behind her. "What's up?"

"Brought you some Valle Luna..."

"GIMME, GIMME, GIMME!!!!!" He raced to him. He took the food and put it in the refrigerator after having a chimichanga. Then he came back to the rest of the group.

"Miroku, this is Kagome, Kagome, Miroku." Inuyasha said.

"Nice to meet you." Kagome said while shaking hands.

"Inuyasha, this is my roommate, Sango. Sango, this is my friend Inuyasha." Miroku said and they shook hands.

"So what was all that noise we heard from in here?" Inuyasha asked. "Were you being perverted again, Miroku?"

"Actually we were doing an excellent pastime of skill and brain power...and the stakes were high..."

"Strip poker?" Inuyasha asked, mechanically.

"Nope." This made Inuyasha more interested. "Nothing perverted about it, actually."

"WHAT!!??" Inuyasha gawked. "That must be a record for you!!!!!"

"Inuyasha, I'm shocked. You really think of me that way?"

"YES!!!"

"Well this game is a very good distraction..."

"What is it?"

"XG RACING!!!!" Sango yelled.

"What are the stakes?" Kagome asked.

"Winner gets to choose the show we watch!" Miroku said.

"You sure are risking a lot there, Miroku." Inuyasha said, sarcastically.

"Hey! It's not my fault we got stuck with only one television."

"Hey, guys." Sango interrupted. "Do you think we can all get together tomorrow to get Starbucks?"

"Sure." Inuyasha said. "Listen, it's getting late. I'm going to head back to the room. Kagome are you staying here or coming?"

"I'll go with you." She said. "I'm getting pretty tired, myself."

"I'll see you tomorrow, okay Kagome?" Sango asked.

"Yeah...call me on my cell at about eleven."

"Kay."

Then Kagome and Inuyasha went to their dorm.

.

When they got to there room, Inuyasha flopped down on the couch. He pulled out a deck of cards he had in his pocket and started to lay them out on the coffee table. He arranged them face down and then started to turn some over and arrange them again.

Kagome looked at this confused.

"What are you playing?" She asked.

"Solitaire."

"How do you play?"

"It's hard to explain...I'll show you later."

"Do you know any other games?"

"Yeah." He said. "Wanna play War?"

"Uh...sure...you'll have to show me how..."

"It's pretty easy." He said and he explained how to play. (A/N: I hate describing...so if you don't know what 'War' is, it is just a card game) Kagome got the hang of it really quickly.

There first game lasted forty five minutes. They were twenty minutes into their second game when Kagome looked at Inuyasha straight in the eye.

"What?" Inuyasha asked, not liking the look she was giving him.

"Soooooooo..." She began. "What's under the bandanna?"

Inuyasha's eyes widened. He got up and quickly rushed to his room but Kagome had caught the back of his shirt.

"Leave me alone."

"So you ARE hiding something!!!"

"No I'm not!"

"Yes you are!!!"

"Leave me alone!!!" He escaped her grasp and rushed to his room and locked the door.

"You know I'll find out." Kagome called.

"Go away!" She heard him call through the door.

"Oh well." She told herself and went in to her room. She looked at the clock. 10:43. She got into her pajamas and went to bed. Her first night in her new home.
