AN- I know my sixth chapter was REALLY BAD…but I'm too lazy to edit it…maybe I'll do it later…but in my defense, I was watching the third Harry potter while writing it…must I say more??

Ron- S-spiders! The spiders want me to tap dance!….I don't want to tap dance!

So the real plot starts…sort of…not really. Think my rating is ok?? I wouldn't want to overrate or underrate this story… tell me what you think!

Chapter 7- Repercussions

Monday mornings were always a pain. Kagome groggily slid into her seat for first period. It took her a long time to get to sleep; she stayed up thinking about…things. The teacher called the class to order.

"I have good and bad news. Paco has returned to Columbia, the six week foreign exchange was cut short so the participants could attend their graduation."

Kagome shrugged, Paco was a funny kid, but she never really knew him. He tried to talk to her once, but it was in Spanish and she had no idea what "tu eres en mi pie" meant.

"On a lighter note, Naraku will return from Columbia. I'm sure he has a lot to tell us about his adventures!"

She shivered. She knew enough about Naraku to know to stay away from him. He was mixed up in stuff she would rather not be near. And it was annoying how he always showed everyone his huge tattoo on his back. She was lost in thought.

"…New student on Wednesday. Now get out your homework, finals are on Thursday and I want everyone to pass."

"Then don't give us a final," stupid smart aleck from the front.

"Kouga, don't be ridiculous."

Kagome froze. Why oh why did she go to that stupid party?!

He turned around and met Kagome's eye, and smiled knowingly.

"Oh shit."

----

Inuyasha growled furiously. He did not like Naraku. He also didn't like the way Kouga was looking at Kagome…

----

The bell rang. Kagome quickly collected her things. She decided it'd be best to avoid Kouga. She was almost made it out of the room…she made it!

"What's the hurry my woman?"

Damn.

"I'm not your woman."

"Fine ok…"

Thank god that was it.

"You're my ho."

Wishful thinking

"I'm not your anything!"

"I beg to differ."

"Just because I had impaired consciousness for one night doesn't mean anything! Just leave me alone!"

"But you're my woman!"

Man, this guy had a really, really thick skull.

Kouga grabbed on to Kagome's wrist and I tried to pull her in. Kagome struggled fiercely, now she was just pissed off.

"Let GO of me!!"

"You heard her. Hands off."

"You don't understand. She's my woman."

Inuyasha had heard enough.

He didn't want to do anything violent; getting suspended before finals was not a good idea…and besides, he had too big a physical advantage on this guy. He then eyed Kouga's sweat pants…hmmmm.

"FOR THE LAST TIME, I'M NOT YOUR WO—"

Kagome gasped. Inuyasha just depantsed Kouga. Inuyasha casually swung Kouga's pants around. She burst out laughing; she always thought of Kouga as a boxers kind of guy…boy was she wrong. But at the same time she felt horrible for Kouga; everyone in the hall saw. He didn't deserve THIS.

"Give them back!"

Inuyasha turned to see a furious Kagome. He immediately became confused. He was doing this all for her.

"Can't you see that he's hurt?"

Ok…so he wasn't exactly hurt…but if Inuyasha didn't give his bottoms back soon he'd need years of therapy.

Kagome finally snatched them from a stunned Inuyasha, and threw them to Kouga.

"What are you doing?!"

"It's fine…really."

"No it's not!" Inuyasha felt mad, embarrassed, confused…it was too much!! He stormed out.

----

Kagome felt awful.

Poor Kouga!!

Oh yeah…what was up with Inuyasha??

It was kind of nice that he stood up for her…kind of…it was probably just his manly pride kicking it. Nevertheless it was…nice.

----

THAT UNGRATEFUL WENCH!!!

Inuyasha was still steaming.

----

"How did you get this wet?"

Inuyasha gulped; his mom would get furious. He just recovered from picking a fight with his older HALF brother, even though he started it.

"The hose, I couldn't help it." Of course, she didn't like to lie to grown ups, but what could she say?

"How nice!" then she pulled a stern face "of course, you'll need to dry out right away, but then maybe Kagome can come over later."

Come over later? He still didn't like her! But he supposed that he could stand her for a while again, but only this one time! And she did help him out.

"Ok! I'll be right back after I change my clothes!"

and it's not like he had much of a choice.

Inuyasha shook himself like a wet dog would do. He heard giggling from behind him.

----

"I've decided you've been a hypocrite."

"How so?"

"Well, you complain that I haven't chosen a date, yet I've noticed you don't have a set date now do you?"

"You're right; I think I'll ask Danny."

"Can't, he's taken by that hot red-head, Natalie."

"Oh… well Nat's really nice; she deserves someone really nice, especially after that creepy Kameron."

"But that still leaves you dateless now doesn't it?"

"Calm down."

"Oh for the love of god!!! Just say that you're going with Miroku!!"

"Miroku?? Honestly Kagome. I can do better than that."

"Well we both know that's obvious. But my point is as of now we both are dateless! And what's worse than being dateless Prom night!"

"Now who's being the hypocrite?"

"Well I thought about it, and we don't want to be like those girls in Grease that don't have dates."

"Grease."

"Yeah, the girls that have to sit on the side while the people moon the camera."

"Right."

"Ok…bad example."

"You want to moon a camera?"

"FORGET IT."

Sango laughed, "I'm just joking. You have a good point. We need to get dates."

"Thank you."

"Ok. So what should we do?"

--long silence--

"We'll deal with that after lunch."

"Yeah, good idea." Kagome said readily.

----

"You better clean up this room or we'll have to send Kagome home, and you don't want that do you?"

"I don't really care," Inuyasha grumbled. Why did everyone think that he liked Kagome? It was starting to get annoying. He started picking up his clothes.

----

Where was she? How long does it take to change your clothes anyway? It's rude to be late you know!

Finally the doorbell rang. Inuyasha wasn't about to let her forget this! His mom opened the door and he tackled the person standing at the doorway.

The mailman.

The poor man shrieked at the sight of Inuyasha's claws and ears. He ran away, throwing his bag aside.

"You know, if you want to be accepted as a hanyou you're going to have to stop doing that."

"But that one wasn't on purpose!"

"I don't want to hear it Inuyasha."

It really was accidental…but the next time it won't be.

"Why are we out here?"

Startled at her voice, he turned to see Kagome sitting on one of the porch chairs waiting casually.

Inuyasha gaped, before he could say anything Kagome hopped inside.

"Come on! You're so slow!"

This had Inuyasha furious, but he decided to do anything else. This girl had him.

----

"You better not want to play dolls!"

Kagome pulled a face. "Of course not."

This surprised Inuyasha; the last girl that he played with always made him play Barbie's and dolls with her. One time she even made him…well…he didn't like to bring that up.

"We're going to play unicorns and horsies THEN we play dolls."

He knew it was too much to hope for.

"I'm just joking! We're going to be treasure hunters. We have to find pieces of a valuable jewel before the bad guys get it."

"Really?" Inuyasha said skeptically.

"Yeah! You beat up all the nasty people. And I'll use my bow and arrow to help you."

She pulled out a play bow with arrows with little plungers for points.

Maybe this wouldn't be so bad…

----

Five minutes before lunch Kagome and Sango usually went to their lockers.

"Could you go on without me? I have something I have to take care of…"

Sango raised her eyebrows

"Uh, sure."

----

It's so much harder to approach guys when their friends were around. Luckily Miroku had just gone the same way as Sango just a few moments ago. It was only his little friend that she saw that one day…

"Hi guys!"

She said that a bit too perky.

"What do you want?" he snarled.

"Aren't you…?"

Kagome decided to ignore Inuyasha's comment and turned to the freshman.

"Yes…I am." Kagome turned a bit pink.

"Don't worry about it; I play tricks all the time." He was a fox demon. "Jeez, this math is hard!"

"Maybe I can help," she was desperate to stall talking to Inuyasha.

She looked at Shippo's math book.

"Ah, proofs. Nasty little buggers."

"Yeah..."

Kagome worked through the problem. All the while, Inuyasha glaring at the floor.

"…and then you use CPCTC and the triangles are similar!"

"Wow! You're nice!"

Kagome giggled. This freshman was cute (not THAT way). Most freshman were obnoxious losers that tried to cut in front of her in the lunch line, and the other half of them were petrified of her just because she was a senior.

"…I don't know why Inuyasha says that you're—"

"So why are you here in the first place?" Inuyasha's cold voice pierced through Kagome.

The time had come. No more stalling.

"Um…I wanted to thank you. Kouga can be a real creep sometimes."

"Is that what you think? From the way you go around it seems like your engagement will be announced any day now."

Kagome's blood boiled. But she wasn't going to get angry.

"LOOK! DON'T MAKE A HUGE DEAL OUT OF IT!!"

Ok…so maybe a little upset

Inuyasha looked away.

"Keh."

"I mean…thanks…that's all."

She started walking away.

"You're welcome."

Kagome smiled and turned around, "I would've never guessed that Kouga of all people wore women's underwear. Not even I wear underwear that revealing."

Inuyasha cracked a smile. They laughed.

Then their eyes met.

The bell rang.

"Come on Inuyasha! I hope I'll see you again Kagome!"

"Anytime Shippo!"

----

"She was nice. Wasn't she nice? I thought she was ni—"

"Shut up."

AN- "Tu eres en mi pie" roughly translates to "You are on my foot"
