Ch. 2: Smile For Me
--BEEP BEEP BEEP--
Kagome rolled out of bed, throwing her sage comforter off her. "Damn alarm clock . ." she muttered, dragging herself across the room to her bathroom. She looked in the mirror above her sink and groaned. Her ebony hair stuck up in places it wasn't supposed to. She had dark circles under her brown eyes. She . . she just looked like crap. Looking away, she picked up her clothes from last night and tossed them into a hamper next to her sink. She opened a drawer, and pulling out a brush, tried to repair the damage sleeping had done to her hair.
After her hair was somewhat decent, she went back to her room. She walked to the closet by the foot of her bed and scanned through her clothes. She chose a pair of hip huggers, a white t shirt, a red hoodie, and red Converse. Dressing quickly, she ran downstairs.
"Kagome," said her mother. "What umm . . what happened to your hair dear ?"
"She stuck her finger in a electric socket ?" offered Souta.
Towering over her little brother, Kagome growled, "Watch it Souta . . ''
He gulped and continued eating his breakfast.
Kagome took her place beside her mother and helped her wash a few dishes. "I don't have time to eat breakfast Mama. I just had to tell you that I'll be late today working on my art project."
"It's all right," said her mother without turning. "You don't have to report to me every day. I know you won't do anything you'll regret later." She turned to her daughter and smiled.
Kagome winced inwardly. 'If only you knew Mama,' she thought. 'If only you knew.'
---------------------------------------
Inuyasha jumped on his silver and red motorcycle and raced to school.
'Why is it that I am always late? Geez !! And I always make an effort to wake up early too !!'
He ran a red light and skidded into the school parking lot. He lifted his red helmet, and his silvery mane cascaded down his back. It shined brightly against his black t-shirt. Standing, he tugged his baggy jeans up and sauntered into the main entrance. Kikyou was the first to greet him.
"Where the hell were you ?!!" she screamed.
Inuyasha was taken aback, unable to speak.
"Well ?!!" demanded Kikyou. "You good for nothing hanyou !! I was up there waiting for your lame ass and when the door finally opens, its Shippou telling me that you left !!"
Inuyasha found his voice, "Baby calm down. My brother called me and told me that he needed a little help. I couldn't waste anytime. I didn't wanna leave you wondering so I just told Shippou to tell you that I left." Kikyou considered this, and found it acceptable. "Well, just don't let it happen again," she said. Taking his arm, she led him to class.
-------------------------------------
Kagome ran down the halls, her carefully fixed hair returning to its wild state. Turning a corner . .
--BAM--
"Kami, I'm so sorry !! Are you all right ?" Kagome asked hurriedly. Even though she was late, she didn't want to leave someone injured in the hall.
"Bitch, why don't you watch where the hell you're going ?"
"Kikyou !" Kagome gasped. "I'm . . I'm sorry," she whispered.
"Sorry ?!!" Kikyou screeched. "Don't say sorry to me, you little shit. Apologize to my boyfriend you ran into." (A/N: I know thats a horrible term, but I decided to use it coz that's what my ex-boyfriend used to call me ehn it works here coz its hurtful. Anyway . . )
Kagome's eyes widened, and she quickly averted her gaze to the floor. " . . Sorry Inuyasha. I didn't see you."
"Look at him when you apologize, bitch," hissed Kikyou.
"Kikyou, I think Kagome's sorry. Let's just leave her alone, we're already late," interrupted Inuyasha.
"Fine ! Hurry up Yashie-babe," called Kikyou, already sprinting to class.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes. Sneaking a glance at Kagome, he was suprised to see a grateful smile on her features. "Uhmm . . s-see you later," she stuttered. Her face turned as red as her sweatshirt and she continued on down the hall.
Inuyasha grinned. She knew his name. She remembered him. With that thought brightening his morning, he raced off to class.
--------------------------------
Kagome sighed. Lunch was always so depressing now that Sango was gone. She stood in line, reminiscing about old times with her best friend. She had been different back then, a happy person. She would go to parties, go on dates, and have shopping trips with Sango. But that had all changed.
"That will be $2.25"
Kagome's trance ended. "Excuse me ?"
The lunch lady rolled her eyes. "I said, that will be $2.25"
Kagome paid, and headed up to her usual lunch area. The roof.
------------------------------
Inuyasha sat on the roof. His silver hair blew in the cold wind, casting his bangs aside to reveal his beautiful golden eyes. Unfortunately, the only emotion they portrayed was sadness. Kagome had smiled at him, but for the rest of the day, she returned to ignoring him, pretending he wasn't there. Even when he had greeted her directly. Why was she so cold to him ? Had he done something wrong ?
--SLAM--
Inuyasha turned around to see a lone figure on the rooftop with him. "Kagome . . " he whispered.
-----------------------------
Kagome was royally pissed. ''There are so many disgusting boys at this school," she muttered. "Stupid Kouga . . like I'd actually be his woman."
--Flashback--
Kagome headed through the hallways.
"Hoy, Kagome !!"
Kagome turned around, only to see Kouga bounding towards her. She groaned, and put on a false smile.
"Hi Kouga, how are you ?"
Kouga grinned. "I'm fine. Had quite a laugh yesterday when Inuyasha ran out on Kikyou when she wanted to fuck his brains out. How's my beautiful woman ?" His hand wandered and rested upon her tiny waist.
Kagome's breath caught. Inuyasha didn't want to sleep with Kikyou ? She snapped out of her thoughts when she felt something touch her waist. Rolling her eyes, she replied, "Kouga, for the last time, I am not your woman. Now please keep your hands to yourself. I need to be going." She dashed away, leaving Kouga behind her.
--End of Flashback--
Kagome leaned against the brick wall as she began to eat. 'I wonder why Inuyasha didn't wanna sleep with Kikyou.' She suddenly snorted at her own thoughts. 'What a stupid question. Kikyou's a walking disease. He's probably getting pleasure from someone safer.' Kagome sighed, as memories flooded back. "I'll never forget," she whispered.
-------------------------------------
Inuyasha stared at Kagome curiously. She seemed to be muttering to herself as she ate. Using her absent-mindedness to his advantage, he quietly slipped away., not wanting to face her rejection again. He ran downstairs, straight into Kouga.
"Watch where you're going man !!"
Inuyasha ignored him and continued running down the hall. Kouga ran after him. After catching up with him, he asked, "What's up with you ? You don't look so good." Inuyasha stopped suddenly. "Where's Miroku ?" he asked. Kouga shrugged. "Last time I saw him, he was asking some hot chick to bear his child." Inuyasha groaned. "Son of a bitch . . " he muttered. He whipped out his cellphone, and flipping it open, called Miroku. (A/N: Inuyasha has the same phone as me. Samsung E105 baby !! Yeah !! heheh)
"Moshimoshi," answered Miroku.
"Hey man where are you ?" asked Inuyasha.
"Actually . . I'm at home. No not right now. This is an important phone call. No I don't think this is the best time. Why don't you head back to school ? See ya"
"What in the hell are you talking about ?"
"Sorry," Miroku said. "I was talking to Ayumi."
"You fucker !!"
"No man, I didn't sleep with her !!" Miroku heard Inuyasha snort. "Seriously man, I didn't. But thanks for calling. You stopped from making a major mistake. This long distance relationship with Sango is hard."
Inuyasha sighed. "Hey man, I'm coming over okay ? I need to talk to you."
"Uhmm . . isn't that what we're doing right now ?"
"Stop being such a smartass. I'm coming over. Bye"
Inuyasha closed his phone and ran to his bike. Jumping on, he shoved on his helmet, revved the engine, and took off at lightening speed.
-------------------------------
Kagome began to tear up. It was the end of school, which meant she had to head over to the art room. She stood straight, pushed her shoulders back, and walked down the hall to face her enemies.
"Well well, its about time you got here," sneered Kikyou. Kagome's strong posture faltered, then failed completely.
"You little bitch . .You'll get it worse this time for running into Inuyasha this morning." threatened Kikyou. "Ayumi, bring her over here." Ayumi complied, dragging Kagome over to Kikyou. "Put her arm under this." Kagome's eyes widened as Nanako placed her arm underneath the paper cutter. Kikyou slowly lowered the blade, causing Kagome's cuts to come slowly and painfully. She reopened the cuts she had made the other day, causing Kagome to cry out. Kikyou slapped her. "Shut your trap, whore. We're done here anyway." She snapped her fingers and she, Ayumi and Nanako walked out of the room, leaving a bleeding, crying Kagome behind.
A/N: I know that I said Kagome was wearing a uniform in the first chapter, and then changed it this chapter. I'll fix the first chapter as soon as I get home. Ja ne !!
