Chapter 3: Telling a secret
Upadated so please review...Thanks!
Chapter 3
The sun shone brilliantly shining on the wet dew drops that were still on various blades of grass.I stood under a big oak tree. Four people surrounded me,they were my gang.Even though I hardly hung out with them,we had grown up together,and whenever one was in trouble the rest came to help him or her.
Kouga,the ex-biker boy who had a rough teen years with his abusive father, was talking to Ayame the quiet girl who only spoke when needed,or when Ginta,or me talked to her.I personally thought that they were dating,but when the subject came up, they would glance at each other,blush,and Ginta would start talking nonsense whileAyame just nodded her head in agreement.
Miroku, the hardworking,perverted,and protective guy in the group was holding Sango, the brainy, yet I'll-kick-your-ass-if- you- mess-with-me-or-anyone-I-care-about type of girl.Shinsei was always protecting Shifuku when we were younger,from her older brother's friends,sinceSango's middlename meant bliss, they always tried to rape her when no one was around,butMiroku was always around hiding in the most bizarre places.Sango was always hanging around Miroku,doing whatever he wanted her to do,which has hardly anything,in a way to pay him back for hs protection.I guess that was how they got together.
I glanced at my watch seeing that it was 7:30 and that the bell would ring in about fifteen minutes.I sighed hoping that the school day would go by quickly.I tapped my foot angrily,since the day was going abnormaly slow.Ayame saw what I was doing, and decided to question me.
"Kagome,why are you acting weirder than normal"askedAyame in her small,and squeeky little voice that she used whenever she forced herself to talk.
"Ayame,don't force yourself to talk if you don't want to"I answered avoiding the truth. I wouldn't tell them that I was engaged without my knowledge or permission to one of the most arrogant bastards in the world.
"I'm not forcing myself to talk.I'm just asking a question,because I'm worried about you"replied Ayame with a lot of confidence in her voice.The rest of the gang looked at me,and noticed my unusual behavior.Not that they didn't notice it before,but they didn't have the guts to ask.They all nodded their head,and gave a little yea to agree with Ayame.Not that they normally didn't because she was more logical,and thought out of the box often.
"What's up?You have to tell us,you know that you can trust us.Not that you can make us hate you with an answer.We've stuck by your side for the past seventeen years,even though you were quiet,kept away from the group,sassy,rude,arrogant,and bossy.And that is only a small amount of what we had to put up with."piped in Sango.
"Whatever,but I know that you will hate me."I answered.
"You can't make us hate you that quickly."put in Miroku.I rolled my eyes,letting them know that the answer could.I hated telling people what was on my mind,instead I liked to beat the bloody pulp out of someone.Beating the crap out of someone was the best stress reliever in the world.A good match could always take your mind away from your problems.
"Look,you guys know that no matter what you do,you can't make me spill"I said.
RRRRIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
I grabbed my book bag and headed off,even though I knew that I would have to face them all throughout the day.I ran to my locker getting there through the mass of people.I shoved my way through knocking some poor souls unconcious,but I didn't feel guilty.When I finally arrived,I quickly put in my combination,grabbed my stuff,and headed towards Mrs.Miko's classroom.
I made it just in with five minutes to spare,and I took out my things,and just stared ou the window.Slowly everyone filed in,and I watched from the back of the room as Mrs.Miko entered with a very familiar face behind her.She walked up to her desk and introduced the person.
"Class this isInuyasha Kagetora.He had a schedule change and he will be in this class for the rest of the year.I hope that you all make him feel welcome,and help him if he needs it."Mrs.Miko said.She looked around the room,and I groaned out loud as I realized the only desk available was the one to my left."Mr.Kagetora would you please sit next to Ms.Kagome Higurashi.Kagome raise your hand."
"No need for that Mrs.Miko.I know who Kagome is,in fact I'm to marry her in four years."Inuyasha stated.The class gasped in surprise simutanously,and whispers could be heard.I slouched in my seat even more,as Kai walked towards me.Once he reached his desk I passed him a note.Inuyasha picked it up from the ground,as Mrs.Miko continued to talk about some boring country in the western hemisphere.Inuyasha passed me the note back.I read it quietly.
"Well babe,I wanted every boy to know that you are mine,and that if they just stare at you I'd beat them to a bloody pulp.You don't think that I'd just stand there and watch do you?Anyways I'm in every one of your classes so could you show me around"I glanced at Inuyasha and saw him smirking.I rolled my eyes in exasperation.I gave him the one finger salute,and tried to concetrate on the boring nonsense Mrs.Miko was talking about,but it was kinda hard since I could feel Inuyasha's eyes staring at me.
"What the hell is your problem,and why do you keep staring at me"I asked when I couldn't take it anymore.
"Well babe,it isn't my fault that you are so beautiful.In fact the most beautiful girl that I have ever set my eyes on.I'm gonna win your heart,and you know it.But to make things more interesting how 'bout a bet"he whispered back.I rolled my eyes informing him that I would win the bet."Well the bet is that I can make you fall in love with me by Valentines Day.If I win well,I get your company ,and you give full authority to me.But if you win I'll do whatever you want me to do."he finished.
"But that's in three months!There is absolutely no way you'll win,and there is no way I'll give away Kanichi/Higurashi Corporations"I exclaimed.
"I know,but I'm gonna do it.Anyways what are you doing Saturday"asked Inuyasha.
"Oh,I'm gonna pass out candy to the kids that knock on my door,and hurt the poor souls who go trick-or-treating when they are too old.Why"I replied.
"Because I was wondering if I could hang out with you Saturday if you don't have anything important to do"he answered.I turned my head the opposite way,hoping he didn't see the faint blush that stained my cheeks.I rolled my eyes,and turned around when I was sure the blush had gone.
"Hmmm.Fine,but you have to do my homework,not annoy me,and you cannot act like you know me in public until the bet is finished"I replied.
"How am I supposed to agree to those terms"asked Inuyasha.
"Well you're the one that wants to hang out with me"I replied nonchalantly.I heard a really quiet fine as I tried to pay attention to Mrs.Miko's lesson.For some reason Inuyasha's face imprinted in my mind.He was trying so hard to win my heart so he could run my company.That's all he wanted.Pain stabbed at my heart as the thought crossed my mind.How come people are son heartless?How come people obsess over money,power,and fame?What was so important?Being rich,powerful,and famous sucked!The only reason paparazzi didn't stalk me was because I tried to hide in the shadows,blend in with the darkness,and stay away from anything that included me being in the media.
The fact that I was rich and important wasn't even known to most of the school.I was known for being the hea of the school board,but besides that I and ordinary teen.No one knew that I was the head of a multi-billion company because I made sure that Ryu-kun's best friend and vice president,Rei Korino,dealt with all the company affairs.of cours I had to attend several parties but other than that I just made sure that everything was going smoothly and that I knew every single bit of information dealing with the company.I was gonna take over after college with a degree in business management.
"Ms.Higurashi, will you please tell me the capital of the States and then I would like to know who the current president is.After that I would also like to know when elections take place and what kind of government they have.Following that please tell me the three parties able to run for president"Mrs.Miko ordered.
"Huh"I asked,confused.
"I will repeat this only once,and if you fail to answer the question you will write a ten thousand word essay about American history and the government.Please tell me the capital of the States and then I would like to know who the current president is.After that I would also like to know when elections take place and what kind of government they have.Following that please tell me the three parties able to run for president"Mrs.Miko ordered.
"Oh.That is simple.The capital is Washington DC and the current president is George W. Bush the son of former president George Bush and brother to the governor of Florida,Jeb Bush.Elections take place every four years on November second and the inauguration is on January.Their government is democracy with three branches.The three parties able to run for president are the democratics which was Kerry,the republicans which was Bush,and the independents which was Snider.Anything else ma'am or would you like to know how I happen to know this information"I asked bored.I studied American history and government when I was eight.The rest I learned from current worldly events like the war in Iraq and the tsunami.It amazed me how Americans worked.
"No.It is obvious that you know this stuff already.So I will dismiss you early or you can stay and do whatever you want to do in my room"Mrs.Miko replied.
"Whatever"I said as I packed my things and headed out the room.I saw the jealous glares the students were giving me and it just made me feel better.I showed the teacher that I didn't have to listen to her and that my knowledge was far superior,but I also made the other pupils hate me.
Well it wasn't so bad.Ryu-kun made me learn everything I could about America,every night,when I was little.I guess since I was so used to do it I just kept on doing it.I walked to my next class,but after a couple minutes I decided to skip school all together.I already knew this stuff.In fact I was learning college material.I just actually had to go to college to get my diploma,and my Phd in business management,physics,math,and science.
A/N: Long enough?anyways there might be a period of time when I do NOT update because I've been working on this story for about for months,and just decided to put it on this month.I am at a writers block at chapter 3 so tips are very much welcomed!
