LOVING TEARS
*BN7 clears throat & speaks* I give my humblest apologies for having to temporally remove Loving Tears and for taking so long in updating it. I promise I am taking all necessary precautions to prevent this tragedy from repeating itself once more. I am also going to personally see to it that those responsible for this calamity are punished (severely). I just need to gather my "special" hunting equipment. (Those damn imps will pay dearly for this!!!)
Disclaimer: As always, Inu-Yasha and friends do not belong to me, but to Lady Rumiko Takahashi. I do own the new characters on this Fan Fic and the storyline.
CHAPTER 3: Return To school
"KAGOME, WAKE UP!!!" Inu-Yasha screamed as he tried to wake up Kagome. He had tried everything that he could think of except tossing her into the tub. He knew that if she didn't wake soon, she would be late for 'skool' and blame him. As if on cue, a knock was heard on the door, then Mrs. Higurashi poked her head inside.
"Is everything alright, Inu-Yasha?"
"Um, not exactly, Kagome just refuses to wake up. I have tried everything that I could think of." Responded Inu-Yasha
"Oh, is that so? I doubt it, otherwise she would have awakened. Why don't you try the 'sleeping beauty method'?" teased Mrs. Higurashi.
"That would be....?" he inquired, obviously missing the joke
"That's simple my boy, a morning kiss has always awaken her when all else fails." She answered matter-of-factly.
"A-a k-kiss?" he stuttered as he stood shocked out of his senses
"Yes, a gentle kiss to the forehead is what does the trick," she instructed. "Oh, by the way, breakfast is ready." With that she left a dumbfounded Inu-Yasha to awaken Kagome. At the sound of the closing door, the poor hanyou snapped out of his stupor only to realize the situation.
'What the hell, does she actually wish me to kiss Kagome, and what is this 'Sleeping Beauty' thing?'
'Admit it, you have been dying to kiss her and now you have nothing to stop you. Even her mother gave you permission.'
'I just can't awaken her with a kiss! She will sit me till my back gives!'
'If you don't she will still sit you and you wont have the condolence of the kiss to cheer you up. Plus, she will be angrier with you longer and you won't be able to say that her mother told you to kiss her.'
'....'
"Kids, hurry or you'll be late for school and breakfast is getting cold." Mrs. Higurashi was heard saying from down the stairs.
Grr, the hell with it all, I just know I will end up regretting this.... with that one thought he took a deep breath and gathered all the courage that he could muster. As he sat next to Kagome, he glanced at the form before him. Why do you have to be so beautiful, Kagome? He was thinking this as he gently removed a stray lock of hair from her lips. His nose was assaulted with her sweet scent when took a deep breath. Hmm, Sakura blossoms and lightning. Must be were she gets all that spunk. He smirked to himself as he cupped one of her cheeks in his right hand. Although he had only been given permission to kiss her forehead he doubted that would work. With that excuse in mind he aimed to claim her lips. As he closed his eyes, he shortened the space between him and his prize. He was but a breath away from his kiss, literally, when he noticed Kagome's quick intake of air. 'OH, DAMN! SHE WOKE UP!' With that little bit of info, he jolted from her and could do nothing but stare. 'Shit, I knew I shouldn't of had listened to the voices! Whattodo, whattodo...' He repeated this mantra as he kept staring at her with a 'deer caught in headlights' look.
"Umm, Inu-Yasha what were you doing?" Kagome asked as she sat up causing the sheet to pool at her waist.
'Busted, ok, time to face this like the hanyou I keep saying I am. Ugh, I knew I shoulda listened to Sesshy when he mentioned a living will. Why does she have to be so breath-taking?' That last thought caused him to finally snap out of his daydreaming. "I was waking you up. Souta is about to leave for skool."
"WHAT!!! WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME UP SOONER?" Yelled Kagome as she ran out her room and into the bathroom leaving a relieved hanyou behind
'Pheww, she didn't notice I tried to kiss her. She was too concerned about being late, better get going while I still can.' Thought Inu-Yasha as he slipped out of the room as Kagome raced about getting ready.

'RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRINNG'
"Alright class, don't forget your homework and beware the mystery meat. Now get outta here guys." the teacher told his students as the left his class for their lunch break
Finally, I can relax if only for a couple of minutes.... thought Kagome as she gathered the books to find an oasis.
With lunch in hand Kagome found a nice quiet spot under the shade of a tree.
Wonder what was bothering Inu-Yasha? He wouldn't look at me straight in the eye all morning. Maybe I could get him to tell me later. Kagome thought as she spotted her friends approaching.
"Hey, Kagome-Chan, how are you feeling?" asked a girl with a headband
"Oh, I'm fine Eri-chan, thanks for asking" answered Kagome dreading that the girls would pursue asking about her health
"So did you finally get over your shingles?" asked Yuka, making Kagome's sweat drop.
Why can't grandpa ever just use the flu as an excuse? Kagome mentally asked herself, fearing any other diseases her grandfather could have had made in his feeble attempts to assist.
"What about that attack from that wild animal? Asked the third girl
"Guys, don't worry, I'm fine. All I have left are a couple of stitches which will be removed in a couple of days." Kagome assured them as she flashed them one of her Oscar-winning fake smiles. "So, what have I been missing?"
"Oh, Kagome, be careful because Leiko has sworn to make Houjo-kun hers." warned short hair
"What will you do?" asked Ayumi
"Umm.... I don't-" Kagome was cut off when she heard her name with a familiar reprimand.
"Kagome-Chan, don't tell us you're still hung up on that violent two-timing creep!" chided Eri.
"WHA-!!!" was all the Kagome could respond before she was bombarded by questions, unwanted comments, and reprimands. It's always the same thing in regards to Inu-Yasha. I wonder what they would do if they got to know the real him? Kagome thought while questioning if this was truly happening o her.
This continued for the rest of the lunch break, making Kagome somewhat annoyed for the next 2 hrs.
~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~
Who are they talking about? Why do they keep pushing towards that hobo guy? Why is she letting those wenches plan out her life? She never took any shit like this from any of us in my time, thought Inu-Yasha as his twitched with confusion, jealousy and anger while hidden from Kagome and all other students among the thick foliage of a nearby tree. He was definitely going to get some answers soon; in the meantime he would just listen to the conversation as his ears twitched with curiosity.

BN7: I am proud to announce that I am going to be updating every two weeks (unless there is another setback.) Oh, and thanks to the help of my BF, whom you will all be introduced to later on, will help me keep this fic in track. Now I need Reviews, so as I know that Yashy isn't being kept from his duties to Kagome for more than needed.
