Teenage Affections
Author's Note: This is my first A/U fic and third Inuyasha fic. Basically, they're all fifteen and in high school and Kagome is a new girl in the school. Due to the fact I DON'T like Kikyo, may not be in this fic! Sorry! Please read and review. and please don't give me any bad reviews.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or the characters. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Chapter 3
Kagome walked at Sango's side on their way to lunch, allowing her friend to fume silently. They had just left Chemistry where Kagome witnessed Miroku's roaming hands make contact with Sango's butt toward the end of the period. Inuyasha was still probably trying to revive his friend from being knocked out by the enraged girl. "Sango, are you sure it was wise to hit Miroku so hard? I mean, he seems to really like you." Sango blushed.
"It is always wise to hit Miroku as hard as possible, other wise he'll never learn his lesson." She informed and Kagome nodded with a smile.
"Hey Taijiya!" Both girls turned around and Sango blushed. A boy that had to be a year older than them ran up and took Sango's hand, kissing it. "Our date tonight, it's still on right?" he asked.
"Date?" asked Kagome in confusion and curiosity. Sango pulled her hand away from the guy.
"Sure, tonight at seven." She answered, and he grinned happily before walking off. Kagome raised an eyebrow at Sango.
"Who was he?" she asked.
"No one important. My dad is close to his dad and I'm always forced into going on dates with him." Sango explained and she led Kagome to the cafeteria. After they got their lunch, Kagome was surprised to see Sango shared a lunch table with Miroku and Inuyasha. Miroku had an ice pack on his head while Inuyasha scolded his grinning friend.
"Hey Miroku. feeling any better?" asked Kagome, very concerned about the lump on his head he showed her when he lifted the ice pack. Both she and Inuyasha cringed and he forced Miroku to cover it back up.
"Really Sango. You seriously need anger management." Inuyasha announced. "I'm the one that has to listen to his mom's speeches when ever these things happen! He's suppose to be watching my back being the older one."
"Only by four months." Miroku supplied in a knowing manner.
"Well maybe if Miroku worked on controlling his wandering hands I'll work on not giving him near concussions." Sango retorted.
"I'll do anything for you lovely Sango." Piped Miroku. Inuyasha scowled and Kagome raised an eyebrow at him. How could he flirt with someone who nearly gave him a concussion?
"Miroku, you're an idiot." Inuyasha informed. Miroku just laughed and ate his lunch. Kagome smiled a bit. Throughout the day, she had seen a few strange friendships and relationships, but the one between Inuyasha and Miroku seemed to be very strong. Like a brotherly bond.
"Oh yeah, are you girls going to the skating party his Friday after Kouga wins us another victory in Football?" Miroku asked curiously.
"What makes you think Kouga will win?" asked Inuyasha, giving his friend a serious look.
"Inuyasha we know you and Kouga hate each other, but you have to admit our school has won a lot of matches with Kouga in the games." Sango pointed out and turned to Miroku. "We'll be there, right Kagome?"
"Yeah!" she agreed even though she would have to check with her mother. Worse of all, she didn't skate much back in her old hometown, so she wasn't too good at it. Right after lunch, there was a crowd of girls and a few guys surrounding a near by locker. They seemed to be surrounding someone. "Sango, who are they?"
"Naraku's gang. Those girls are his collection of girlfriends and the guys are his. Hit men I guess you call them." Kagome blinked and looked at Sango in shock.
"You can't be serious." She said. Sango nodded her head.
"Naraku is the richest guy in the school as well as the toughest. He usually gets what he wants- girls, money, cars." Kagome noticed when the crowd parted, there was a tall guy around the age of seventeen with dark long hair and a serious, cold expression on his face. His arm was wrapped around a girl who was close to his side. When Inuyasha and Miroku came by, he acknowledged them, but both boys ignored.
"I take it Miroku and Inuyasha don't like him." Said Kagome. Sango smiled.
"Naraku has a thing for taking any girl Inuyasha goes out with. Inuyasha and Miroku have been friends since first grade, so naturally they share enemies. And as far as Inuyasha's love life goes, I think he's avoiding dating and Naraku all together."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Inuyasha narrowed his eye slightly later that afternoon as he and Miroku made their way home. Miroku was going on about his plan to get Mr. Myoga to take their class on a trip to see a real piece of Feudal Japan. There was an old shrine a few hours away and it was set up like Feudal Japan. It was basically a tourist attraction. "And I heard you get to dress up like the people from that time as well."
"Miroku, you have the mind of a child." Inuyasha informed.
"And you have the mind of an old man. C'mon Inuyasha, show some enthusiasm!" Miroku slapped his friend painfully on the back. "We have tomorrow with two gorgeous girls to look forward to." He piped. Inuyasha rolled his eyes. Miroku had always seemed to have a one-track mind since they reached sixth grade.
"Hate to break it to you, but Sango didn't seem as happy as you are about us being in her group." Miroku grinned.
"Yeah, but I think her friend likes me, Kagome's her name. I think I'll ask her out tomorrow." Inuyasha rolled his eyes as Miroku went about telling his perfect plan for the following day.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hey mom, I'm home!" called Kagome, kicking her shoes off at the door before entering. "MOM!" she called and entered the kitchen where Souta and the boys she had seen him leave with that morning were sitting with their books spread open across the table and snacks set out for them. Mrs. Higurashi smiled brightly and came up, hugging her daughter.
"So, how was your first day of school? You met new friend I hope." She said brightly.
"Course. but who are the kids?" Kagome asked. Mrs. Higurashi smiled.
"These are Souta's new friends, Shippo Kitsune," she indicated toward the shorter boy with red hair and greed eyes. "And Kohaku Taijiya." She informed, indicating to the taller boy with brown eyes and dark hair.
"Taijiya? You must be related to Sango then." Said Kagome with a grin. Kohaku smiled, blushing sheepishly.
"Yeah, she's my older sister." He said. Kagome smiled. He seemed like such a sweet boy.
"Well I had better go. See ya."
"Bye!" called Shippo and Kohaku. Kagome looked over her shoulder and gave a small wave. She couldn't help but giggle at the look Souta was giving his new friends who seemed to have taken a liking toward her- especially Kohaku.
"Ah Kagome, you're home Did you enjoy school?" asked Jii-chan, her grandfather and owner of the shrine they were living in. She grinned.
'It's been great so far gramps." She answered happily. Jii-chan smiled and nodded.
"Good, I was hoping you'd like it." He said and went on his way. Kagome opened the door to her room and took a deep breath. Buyo, her fat cat, was sleeping on her bed when she dropped on it. Being the lazy thing he was, he didn't even move.
"It looks like things around here are going to be more interesting than I thought Buyo. I think I may just learn to love it here."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* THE NEXT DAY- 6:45 am (SANGO'S HOUSE)
"DAD! KOHAKU! Breakfast is on the stove. I've gotta take a shower so I can get to school!" Sango called from the bathroom. She let out a sigh and closed the bathroom door when she saw her brother make his way groggily to the kitchen. With her mother dead, Sango was in control of the house. She cooked, cleaned, and made sure Kohaku and her dad were both up and ready for work and school. Once she finished her shower, she dressed in her uniform and ran down to the kitchen. Kohaku was eating his breakfast tiredly and seemed to slur a good morning. Suddenly, Mr. Taijiya ran into the kitchen. He grabbed his brief case, kissed Sango on the forehead and ruffled Kohaku's hair. "Late again?" Sango asked.
"I'm sorry kids, but this may mean working late as well. I'm sure you can survive until I get home." He said.
"Sure." Mr. Taijiya gave a forced smile before grabbing his breakfast place and leaving. Sango sighed. This was part of her everyday life.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* BOTH Kagome & Inuyasha's HOUSES- 7:10 am
Rolls over and looks at alarm clock, misreading what time it really is. "Just five more minutes." Lazily hits the snooze button and rolls over, going back to sleep.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
MIROKU'S HOUSE- 7:15 am
Both Miroku and his mother rushed around their large kitchen, preparing for their long day ahead. Miroku was packing his lunch, while his mother tried to organize things he was messing up as well as trying to find her car keys. "Mom, I'm about to leave now, alright!" called Miroku, grabbing his book bag and very large lunch. Mrs. Houshi looked up at her son as he got ready to leave, and grabbed his forearm before he could go anywhere.
"I want you to behave yourself. No cutting classes or messing with girls. especially that Taijiya girl." She said. Miroku grinned.
"Course mom." He said and she smiled, shaking her head.
"I don't know what I'm going to do with you." She said. Miroku just laughed. She kissed his cheek before sending him on his way. "And make sure Inuyasha stays out of trouble as well!" she called. He waved back in response as he ran down the street.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
7:45 AM
Kagome groaned and muttered to herself as she ran towards the school. It was her second day of school and she was late. Souta even took the time to point this out as he made his way out the door for school (Kagome had just woken up). She looked down and checked her watch. "ARGH! Only ten minutes left!" she yelled and was ready to run at top speed until she collided into some one and was knocked on her butt.
"HEY! Watch it!" yelled an annoyed and groggy voice. Kagome looked up to see it was Inuyasha.
"Sorry." she muttered and stood up.
"Feh. You need to be more careful what you do." He muttered. Kagome scowled.
"Hey, I apologized. You don't have to be a jerk about it." She snapped. They both stood two minutes from the school yelling back and forth at each other until Kagome lost it and shoved him out of her way, stomping angrily the rest of the way to school. 'So much for him being a stud.' She thought bitterly.
