Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters...although I do wish. And thank you for the review.

Fire goddess---Thank you so much for review. For that, you will earn a special place in my heart, just for you. Thank you. And yes, this is an Inuyasha/Kagome romance story. I'm not sure what Kagome will be for now, but you could give if advice as to what you think. And of course she'll still be popular, since Kouga isn't the one who's that popular. Kikyo and Inuyasha might go out for a while, but not for long (for Kikyo does not fit to date Inuyasha in this story-----sry for all you Kikyo fans, I still like her though, so I won't kill her.) But now that school will start soon, I'm not sure when I'll be able to update, but I'll do my best and update when I have the time.

Now on with the story...

::::last time::::

Don't want you back

'Cause you're no good for me

I know

That's all I can say

Don't want you back

Forgive my honesty but you gotta go

I don't want you back

And with that, she fell asleep, thinking about what's going to happen to her on Monday.

.:continue with the story .:

( On Monday Morning )

Ringgg, ringgg, ringgggggggg. Turning her head just a little bit while stretching her arm, Kagome picks up the phone.

"Hello? Kagome speaking."

"Hurry up Kagome, or your gonna be late!"

"Who is this?"

"It's Sango. Don't tell me you forgot your best friend, now did you?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I'm not fully awake yet, btw, what time is it?"

"Oh, don't worry,' cause it's just 8:30, AND IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE IN 5 MINUTES I'M GONNA DRAG-"but Kagome wasn't listening anymore, for she just realize if she doesn't get going, she's gonna be late.

"HOLY SHIT! IT'S ALREADY 8:30? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME BEFORE???? GOTTA GO, MEET YOU OUTSIDE." Hanging up the phone, she quickly got dressed and jumped down the stairs while saying hi to her brother, Souta by waving at him. Mrs.Higurishi just looked at her daughter like she was from Mars or something, and quickly hand Kagome a piece of toast.

"Ahhhhh!!!!!!! I'm gonna be late if I don't hurry. Oh thanks mom. I love you. Bye Souta, bye grandpa. Love you all!" And then...SLAM! She's out the door.

Running past everyone while eating her toast, she almost slammed into someone, but the word being 'almost', means she stopped just in time.

"Watch where you're going, mister! Or you won't be going anywhere!" yelled Kagome while trying to see whom she'd bump to. Looking up to see a pair of amber eyes, she froze.

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry Inuyasha. I woke up late and I had to go meet Sango, and I didn't see you here. I'm so sorry Inuyasha." Said Kagome with almost one breathe.

"That's ok. But, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED THAT DAY? WHY'D YOU RUN OFF? TELL ME. OH DON' TELL ME, LET ME GUESS. IT'S SOMETHING THAT WOLF DID, ISN'T IT? So it is true. WAIT TIL' I GET MY HANDS ON HIM, I'LL RIP HIM APART. I'LL...I'LL..." looking at Kagome he saw sad eyes and tears start to gather at her eye's corner, he said in a soft voice only Kagome could hear. "I'll be there for you, Kagome. Don't worry, I'll always be there for your. I'll protect you...forever." And with that, he took her in his arm and gives her a warm, tight hug.

"Thanks Inuyasha. For telling me this. Thank you." She hugged him back.

Although it's really comfy at that spot, things couldn't last forever, at least not for this one.

"OMG, look at the time. We're really going to be late if we don't hurry. And Sango would probably kill me right on the spot if I don't show up, in-"looking down at her watch, eyes wide open. "in 60 seconds." Leaving Inuyasha's arm she began to run, but stopped in a few steps and turned around yelling "I'LL SEE YOU IN CLASS INUYASHA!" to......of course, our mighty Inuyasha.

( At School )

Sango was standing at the sidewalk with Miroku talking about what had happened to Kagome that day when she heard the voice.

"Hey Sango! Hey Miroku! I'm not late, am I?" yelled Kagome as she ran towards them with Inuyasha following behind. She stopped right infront of them, and looked at them with a confused face.

"What happened? Did I miss anything? Why are you staring at me like this? What'd I do?" Started Kagome.

"Um, you didn't miss anything, Kag. We're just.... um, we're just wondering how you are feeling after the, the-" "the breakup right?" Kagome finished the sentence for them.

"Um yeah."

"Well, I'll tell you all later at lunch, right now what I have to worry about is to GET TO CLASS. AHHHHH! I'M GONNA BE LATE!!!!!!COMMON' SANGO, LET'S HURRY!" dragging Sango by the hand Kagome ran and into the school.

( with Miroku and Inuyasha )

"Um...what just happened?"

"I don't know."

"Um...Inuyasha?"

"Yeah?"

"Um, we should get going, after all, we're gonna be late like Kag said if we don't hurry up. Besides, Kag told us she'd tell us what's wrong with her by lunch. So common', I don't wanna be late. After all, I still have to have a perfect record."

"There's nothing wrong with her, just something seriously missing. And LET'S GO. YOU DON'T WANNA BE LATE NOW, DO YOU, MIROKU?!"

"No." miroku answered with a calmly voice. But that won't matter, for the bell has just rang. Ring, ring, ring, ring. Ringggggggggggg.

'ah-oh. I'm dead meat. Miroku's gonna kill me now for making him late. Better run right now just in case' thought Inuyasha with a scared face. 'I mean, look at him. He's even scarier than Sesshoumaru right now. Not that I'm scared of course. I'm just-" But couldn't finish his thought when Miroku started to realize what just happened.

With a shocked face, Miroku slowly turned towards Inuyasha, and ask, "Inuyasha, did I just hear the bell go? Please tell me I'm dreaming. Pinch me, Inuyasha. Please tell me I'm just dreaming. -Ow! What'ja do that for?"

"Well, you told me to pinch you." Said Inuyasha with an innocent face.

"I'm not dreaming...I'm not dreaming...the bell just rang...and.... MY PERFECT RECORD!!!!!!!You're gonna regret this day, Inuyasha. Your gonna regret for making late."

"What do you mean I made you late. You're the one who's talking for that long."

"Me? You were the one who took so long responding to my question and you were the one who didn't walk."

"Forget it. But we might as well go in school now, cause we're gonna be even more late."

"Fine, but it's still your fault."

"What do you mean it's my fault...."

And we could hear their argument all the way to the inside of their school Shikon Star School.
