Hey!!!! I just want to say, "don't worry, be happy. It's almost Christmas time!!! Spread the holiday spirit!!!" Or if you don't celebrate Christmas, ummm . . . be happy anyways. ^_^o The author's note chapter is gone too, so that's just another reason to be happy!!! ^_^
Disclaimer: I luv the Inuyasha cast, but I don't own them. ;_; *sobs* . . . 10 seconds later- "Ok I'm good."
Well on with the story!!
Kagome and Sango entered the cafeteria and got in line for their "food". They chatted and giggled about this and that, as girls often do. Meanwhile Inuyasha and Miroku were about 15 people back down the line from the girls.
"Miroku, I can't believe this!!" Inuyasha exclaimed.
"What is it now, Inuyasha??" Miroku asked uninterestedly. He was getting tired of all Inuyasha's whining.
"I have that Kagome girl in all my fricken classes!! Not only that, but I have detention with her after school, too!!!" Inuyasha whined. "Hang on, I can just ditch that, she can't make me go to detention with her." Inuyasha said, triumphantly, as if he was the most brilliant person in the world.
"What's so bad about having Kagome in all your classes, Inuyasha?? I have her friend, Sango in all my classes, but I'm certainly not complaining." Miroku said with a lecherous grin. "Boy is she hott!! I wonder if she would go out with me, hmmm. . ."
"Miroku, get over yourself, I don't think anybody will ever want to go out with you, if you don't stop being such a pervert." Inuyasha told his daydreaming friend. "And the reasons that I don't want Kagome in all my classes are: she is a bitch, she is annoying, she argues with me all the time, and . . . ummm . . . hmmm . . ."
"See, she really isn't that bad. Anyways, let me guess, you usually start the arguments don't you??" "Well . . . yes, but-" "Oh come on, Inuyasha, you know you love the arguments you have with her. You think all those verbal spars are fun." Miroku said in an all knowing voice.
"What the fuck!!! No I don't!!!!" But in his mind, he knew it was all too true. It was fun to fight with her, she was feisty and didn't let him walk all over her.
"You can deny it all you want buddy, but I know you better than anyone, and you love it." Miroku said, as they walked out of the line with their trays.
Inuyasha just grumbled and followed him to a seat in the courtyard.
"Sango, my dear, how are you?? Miroku asked sitting next to her on the bench.
"Well, I was doing fine, but you just had to show up and completely ruin the good mood that Kagome finally got me into." Sango grumbled.
"Miroku, do we have to sit here??" Inuyasha whined.
"Yes we do, now just sit, and stop whining already!!" Miroku said to Inuyasha. Then to Sango, "My greatest apologies, allow me to make it up for you." and squeezed her ass.
"You hentai!!!!!!!!!!! You are so dead!!!" Sango screamed, giving Miroku a beating with a giant boomerang that appeared out of nowhere.
"Ooooo, look at all the birdies." Miroku said, dazed from his beating.
Inuyasha just shook his head and sat down next to Kagome, since he wanted to stay away from Miroku and Sango, because it could be dangerous to his health. Because, Sango might hit him instead of Miroku accidentally, and with her in this rage, it would probably hurt like hell!!
"Is he always this . . . Eccentric?? Kagome asked Inuyasha, uncertainly.
"Actually, this is the first time he has ever gone after just one girl this much. I think he really likes your friend." Inuyasha said, realizing it for himself just now.
"I don't think it's a good idea, them being together I mean. Because, it doesn't seem like he would be very loyal to her, since he touches just about every girl he sees." Kagome said
"Surprisingly, he is a really good friend, once you get past the groping part. He is always there for you when you need him, and he would do just about anything for a friend." Inuyasha told her. "But don't tell him I said that."
Kagome giggled, "Alright, whatever." They sat in silence for a little while, watching Sango beat up Miroku. "You know, they would actually make a pretty cute couple. Kagome said, giggling.
"Yeah, I guess so." Inuyasha replied.
After that, they just stared at each other, thinking the same thing. 'Did we just have a civil conversation, and then agree on something, too?!?!?!?!'
"Did we just - Nah! That could never have happened" They said in unison.
"I'm really starting to worry about Miroku's health now." Kagome said, after they sat in an awkward silence for a while. They had been watching Miroku, who was still getting beat up, but this time, for another groping, after the first one.
"Ah, don't worry about him, he gets this a lot, he's almost become immune to it by now." Inuyasha replied nonchalantly, leaning back and putting his arms behind his head.
"Sango, I'm gonna go get a coke." Kagome called to Sango, not expecting answer, and not getting one.
She walked to the other end of the other end of the courtyard to where the coke machines were. She got a dollar out of her pocket and put it in the machine, getting a Pepsi. She turned around and tripped. She waited for impact with the ground, but it didn't come. Once again, for the second time today, somebody had caught her. "Damn me and me clumsiness!!" Kagome mumbled under her breath. Then turning to the guy who had caught her, she said, "Thank you, but can you please let go of me now, so I can go back to my friends??"
The guy, who had long black hair tied into a high ponytail and cobalt blue eyes, still wasn't letting her go.
"Hey babe you okay??" He asked, totally ignoring her earlier statement. Then, he just barged right into his next sentence, not even waiting for an answer. "My name is Koga, and you are now my woman." Koga said triumphantly.
"Excuse me!!! That is sooooo NOT your decision to make!!" Kagome yelled, furious that he would even think making that decision for her.
Koga then grabbed her upper arm in a bruising grip. "If I say you're my woman, than you are my woman!!" he smirked.
"Let me go!!!" Kagome screeched.
Inuyasha stopped eating his "food" when he heard Kagome's scream. He got up and started to walk towards Kagome, to see what was wrong.
"Inuyasha what are you doing??" Miroku asked. He and Sango hadn't heard anything, since they didn't have Inuyasha's ears.
"None of your damn business" Inuyasha replied, scowling.
When he got closer, he saw that some bastard was hurting Kagome. He growled deep in his throat.
Meanwhile, Kagome was still struggling with Koga, but the more she struggled, the tighter his grip got. "Let go of me you bastard!!" Kagome yelled at him. "Not until you admit that you are my woman." Koga replied. "Never" she whispered and spat in his face. "Oh, you are a feisty one, I like that, but right now I wouldn't have done that if I were you. Now I won't do anything to you if you admit right now that you are my woman." Koga said. Kagome said nothing, and spat in his face again. "You little bitch!!" Koga raised his hand to slap her, while she still glared at him defiantly. He kept his hand withdrawn for a second, then brought it down, quick as lightning, to her left cheek, causing Kagome's head to whip to the right. "now say it, you ARE my woman." Koga said triumphantly.
Kagome slowly brought her head back around, and with a dangerous storm brewing in her gray blue eyes, whispered, "Never in a million years, wolf, will I be your woman." "Wolf??" Koga asked nervously. "Yeah, that's right. I know that you are a wolf demon, Koga. I happen to be a miko, not that it's any of your business, bastard." Kagome said. "Oh, I think that just deserves more." Koga replied, withdrawing his hand again. He was about to bring his hand down to Kagome's face again, but Inuyasha (who had finally gotten there) grabbed Koga's arm, pulling it back, until his arm was almost twisted all the way back. "You hear the girl, she doesn't like you. Now be a good little boy and leave her the fuck alone. She didn't do anything to deserve that, wimpy wolf." Inuyasha whispered dangerously in Koga's ear. Koga stiffened. 'Another one who knows my secret!!' Koga thought. "Yeah yeah, I can smell the ugly stench of wolf demon on you. So if you don't want me to break your arm, and tell everybody your secret, you better run along and leave Kagome alone from now on. Got it??" Inuyasha whispered. Koga nodded once, with a stiff neck, and an inferno of hatred on his eyes. "good, now go." and Koga went.
"Are you okay Kagome??" Inuyasha asked Kagome, who was rubbing her arm. "Well, my arm hurts like hell, and my cheek is stinging, but yeah, I'm pretty good." She replied. "Here, let me take a look at your arm." Inuyasha grabbed her hand, and pulled her arm toward him gently, pushing up her sleeve to inspect the damage. When Inuyasha saw her arm, he growled. "That bastard!!! You can see each individual finger on this stupid bruise. Are you sure you're okay Kagome??" Inuyasha asked. "Thank you for your worry Inuyasha," "I'm not worried about you!!" "but I'm fine, I just have finger marks on my arm, and a big red hand print on my face. I probably look like Miroku." Kagome replied giggling. At that giggle, released a lot of tension that he didn't know he was feeling. He smiled gently.
Kagome smiled back, and reached up to cup his cheek in her hand. "But really, thank you Inuyasha, I appreciate it. If you hadn't come, I could have been much worse off." she said sincerely.
"Yeah whatever. Like I said to him, you didn't deserve anything he was doing to you. I guess I was kinda returning a favor too, you know the thing with Kikyo??" Inuyasha said. Kagome giggled
The bell rang, and Kagome removed her hand from his face. "Bye Inuyasha!!" Kagome yelled over her shoulder. "Feh" he replied. Kagome just smiled and winked, giving him a wave, and running to catch up with Sango.
When Kagome was out of sight, he raised his own hand up to his face, and touched the place where Kagome's feather light and gentle touch had been just a few minutes ago. Miroku walked up behind him. "Well, well, well, it looks like you and Kagome are starting to warm up to each other, Inu my boy." Miroku said, waggling his eyebrows suggestively. "Quit beung such a pervert and get your mind outta the gutter, Miroku." Inuyasha said, and walked off to his locker, leaving Miroku all by his lonesome "Was it something I said??"

Well, I was gonna make this longer, like with lunch and detention in it, but I didn't know if I would get that all typed before the end of the year.

Well, anyways, We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. See ya latas. ^_~
