Chapter 1

[ disclaimer : I don't own Inuyasha...sniff...sniff... ]

She:

Beep Beep Beep Beep...

I reached for the snooze button my alarm clock to turn it off. I realized half a second before I got there that it wasn't going to be of use. I pulled my hand back and pulled the covers over my head, hoping that my new room mate, Sango would turn her alarm clock off. She never did.

I pulled the covers down to see why she wasn't turning it off. I looked over to her side of the room to see her still in bed, totally oblivious to the thing on her desk beside her.

So I got up and turned the stupid thing off. I wanted to crawl back into bed for a little longer, then realized that I shouldn't. So instead, I got my stuff and went down the hall to the washroom to brush my teeth.

I came back and saw her still in her bed, snoring happily away. I shook my head at her, wondering why she even bothered to use that clock of hers. She never gets up with it in the morning.

I opened the closet and pulled out a red t-shirt and a pair of big blue jeans. When I was done changing and packing my bag, Sango was STILL asleep. If she didn't wake up soon, she'd be late! I pulled out my white jacket from my chair and headed out the door, locking it. I was halfway down the hall of our dorm when I decided to go back, and wake her up, just to be nice.

'Hey, time to get up!' I whispered in her ear. She just turned around on her bed and continued to sleep.

'Hey! Get UP!' I pulled the covers off of her, causing her to whine and reach for her blankets. She eventually found them and tugged, continuing to sleep.

I was starting to wonder why I had even bothered to help her. I'd moved in yesterday., and today was my first class. She had the same class with me first thing and it wouldn't hurt to have a friend to walk with. Sighing, I tried one last time.

'HEY, SANGO! WAKE UP!' I shouted in her ear.

I must've startled her a lot because she bounced up, hitting me in the nose with her arm. I guess doing good deeds isnt always good. But right now I was rewarded enough. She looked pretty funny, like she was ready to fight.

'Owwww, ow ow ow!'

'Oh. So sorry, Kagome. I didn't know u were there,' she said apologetically.

'It's okay, I'll be fine,' I replied, still holding my nose.

'You sure? I mean, I think I hit you a lil hard,' she gave me a worried look.

'Hey I'll be all right. But you, you're going to be late if you don't hurry.'

She looked at her clock, 'IT'S ALREADY 8:15? Why didn't you say so?' With that she left in a hurry to fix herself up.

'Hey, could you wait for me? I gotta go down to the café to get something before class,' she said as she hurriedly changed into a blue shirt and black skirt. She stood in front of her mirror to fix her hair.

'Sure,' I answered. There was still another half hour before classes started. 'I need to get something myself. You know, I do need to eat.'

She grabbed her pack and jacket. 'Let's go,' she said as she got the last strands of hair tied into her high ponytail. Pulling my backpack up again, I left with her, down the stairs to the cafe. We left there exactly 10 minutes later across the field, and into Shikon University. I was in awe the first time I saw it and I was still dazzled by the grandeur of the place. I was going to have lots of memories here.

We stood, in the middle of the hall, deciding which way to go, left or right.

'Left!'

'No! Right!' I shouted back at her. I swore this was the right direction.

We stood there for a few minutes before deciding to go her way. I had given up. What was the use if I won but we were late for class? I'll just show her that I was right when we went around in a circle.

As expected we did go around in a circle, and of course I was right, so we went our way.

We arrived late anyway, but the prof didn't even second glance us. They never even took attendance in the lecture, only in the tutorial. The two of us headed down the wall to the back seats, next to some dude with really long white hair.

He:

I looked to my right. There was Kikyo. So why was she ignoring me? She knew me and I knew her. She moved away last year in high school, swearing never to come back to this "stupid" city. So why was she here?

I looked at her. She didn't seem to sense it. In fact, she acted as though I was just any ordinary guy in lecture hall. I turned around again. She wanted to act like that? Fine, I could too. I stayed that way all through the 115 minutes of stupid equations.

My next class wasn't until 2:30, so I headed to the library to start my homework and borrow a few books. And of all people, who was I to meet but Kikyo. She saw me but acted like she had no idea who I was. She headed for the reading room. I followed her. She sat down in a comfy chair. I sat on one next to her. She gave me an agitated look. I gave one back. She moved to a table and started to work on her homework, which I presumed was Stats. I followed her to a table that was empty, close to hers. She did her work, I did mine.

'Arg! What do you WANT? You've been following me around ever since we left stats! What is wrong with you?!!!! Can't you just leave me in peace?' She finally broke out at me, causing a whole bunch of heads to turn our way.

'You don't remember, do you, Kikyo?' I asked her, feeling the anger rise again.

'Remember WHAT? And who in the world is this KIKYO?!'

'You're pretty good at this, this acting. I will now believe that you forgot, Kikyo.'

'Acting? What are you talking about? First of all, I hate acting. Second, like I asked before, who is this Kikyo you're talking about?'

I glared at her. She glared back. 'Game's over Kikyo. Stop acting. I know you know me.'

'Algh! I'm NOT Kikyo! Kikyo this, Kikyo that. Whoever she is, she's not me! My name is Kagome! Ka-go-me. Kagome.'

I looked at her more closely. She was right. She WASN'T Kikyo. So, if she wasn't, who was she? This Kagome?

She turned around and marched out the library, leaving me to my thoughts.

She:

That stupid jerk! Who did he think he was?

I stopped outside and leaned on the wall, taking a deep breath to help me forget about what had happened. What was his name anyway? He was in my stats class. Let's just hope I don't have anymore classes with him.

I got off the wall and started walking again. I was so busy fuming about earlier that I didn't watch where I was going. I walked straight into. . . some silver hair

Frustrated I shouted out loud, not noticing the guy, ' Algh! Why do you always have to be where I am?'

The person turned around and I realised how stupid I was. 'Uh... I don't believe we've met before? So ...?'

'Oops! Sorry! Thought you were someone else. What is this? A fad where everyone has silver hair?!'

He gave me a confused look.

'Oh, never mind. So, I haven't got to learn your name,' I said, trying to make conversation to get that jerk out of my mind.

'Oh. Um, Sesshomaru.'

'I see. You a freshman?'

He shook his head, ' Second year.'

I was getting bored. no offense but this guy was a little on the boring side. Or maybe he just didn't like to talk to strangers. 'Well, I'm Kagome, and I've...uh... got to go somewhere. See ya around!'
