Kagome walked into her third period class; dance. She was smiling and holding a small backpack that held her dance clothes. Sango had told her that if you were in dance, they required clothes that stretched.
And then she saw him.
Well, actually, she saw them.
Inuyasha and Hojo.
They were stretching on opposite sides of the dance room, and every now and then Inuyasha would give Hojo a glare. Kagome gasped and dropped her backpack, creating a loud clang that echoed through the room. Everyone turned their heads toward Kagome, and she blushed, immediately picking up her pack.
Inuyasha smirked and walked towards her. Kagome blushed harder, noticing his dance clothes. He was wearing a white wife beater that was extremely tight and showed all of his muscles. His pants were black sweat pants and had an orange line going down the side of them. But then Kagome glared at him as he stood in front of her.
"Ah, Kagome! I didn't know you were that good of a dancer to be in Experienced Dance. Are you actually that good or did you bribe the teacher?" Inuyasha said, grinning down at her.
Kagome huffed and sidestepped once, took a step forward and moved around him. She did a triple pirouette, then flung out her leg and slowly put it down so that she was facing Inuyasha. She smiled and then gestured for him to move. He rolled his eyes, but moved. She did a sashay, and then did a perfect grand shetay. She kicked straight up while leaning back, then did a peekay turn and went into a high axle turn, landing right in front of Inuyasha, a hand on her hip.
He had wide eyes, and Kagome walked away from him to change into her dance clothes so she could dance better.
Inuyasha huffed and turned to see Hojo laughing at him. Inuyasha growled, but Hojo said, "Man, you got served."
Inuyasha shivered and said venomously, "Oh that was so wrong." And then he turned and went back to his spot to stretch.
Five minutes later, Kagome came out of the changing area for girls and every guy's draw dropped. She had on a black tee shirt that was cut off right below her bust, and it had a white Nike symbol on it. Her pants were black with a white stripe down the side, and she also wore black jazz shoes. Her hair was tied up in a high ponytail, and, as always, her mother's necklace was around her neck.
Inuyasha realized that he was practically drooling, and looked away. He hoped Kagome would go over to him to stretch, but instead she went over to Hojo. Inuyasha groaned as he watched them laugh and talk. He averted his gaze once more and walked over to a different girl who was stretching near by him. He started up a conversation with her, but she just wasn't as fun as Kagome, or nearly as beautiful as her, even though he had only known her for about two days.
Then the teacher told them to line up. "I will give you a number, and then you will go to that line and wait until the music starts. Then we will do our warm up."
She walked over to Hojo and said, "One." Then she told Kagome, "Two." She went around the room until she got to Inuyasha, and he was a two. He smiled on the inside, but on the outside he groaned, pretending that Kagome was a pest. Kagome rolled her eyes, but went to line two.
Inuyasha quickly took a spot next to Kagome, who was doing breathing exercises, trying to calm herself down. He chuckled at her and she in turn glared at him.
"Ok kids, just watch what I do. 5, 6, 7, 8!" Ms. Yura said.
The music was on and it was a song by Every Little Thing, called Yura-Yura (love that song even though I can't understand a word of it.)
Awai sora ga utsushita
Omoi ga kezu me ni tonde kita houseki
Hokori kabutta mama no zutto nemutteta kokoro ga madarete yuku
Ms. Yura leaned to the side and reached one arm over her head. Everyone in the class did likewise.
Kemuri no naka sagashimotometa koi no antena
Negai komete kumorizora o tsukinukete
Hikari o sashita
Kagome was copying Ms. Yura's every move, and doing a better job of it. At least that was what Inuyasha thought as he watched her out of the corner of his eye.
Daremo shiru koto no nai aoi hoshi o
Yura yura oyoideku
Kedaku mo habataku tori no you ni
Jiyuu sae mote asobu gurai no kiseki
Jareru ka no you ni warau kimi no manazashi ni tokimeki o oboeta yo
Kimi ni deaeta koto wa heibonna boku no nani yori mo mirai de
Kagome did alternating kicks, as high as the heavens. Inuyasha smirked, knowing that he could kick slightly higher.
Kusatte ita nurui kisetsu ni yokotawari
Sabotte ita ukemi darake no seikatsu ja
Nani mo kawaranai
Kagome noticed Inuyasha staring at her. Another thing she noticed was how graceful he was for a guy.
Daremo shiru koto no nai aoi hoshi o
Yura yura oyoideku
Kono omoi itoshii kimi no moto e
Toumeina boku ni umarekawaru kiseki
Kemuri no naka sagashimotometa koi no ANTENA
Negai komete kumorizora o tsukinukete
Hikari o sashita
Sore demo kitto,
Fuan ya kanashimi o kesayashinai keredo...
In a burst of energy Kagome did a perfect toe-touch. (It is a jump where you do a straddle in the air) Inuyasha tried his best to do one, although he had a little trouble. Kagome smiled at his effort.
Semayoi nagara mo aoi hoshi o
Yura yura oyoideku
Kedaku mo habataku tori no you ni
Jiyuu sae mote asobu gurai no kiseki
The song ended and Inuyasha and Kagome breathed deeply, tired out from dancing so hard. Kagome smiled at Inuyasha, trying to be friends again, and said, "Good job."
Inuyasha smiled slightly, but said, "Feh."
Kagome sighed. 'So much for being friends again.'
Then Ms. Yura came up to Kagome and said, "Since this is your first day here, we are going to do the dance we learned and then we can teach part of it to you."
Kagome smiled widely at her and said, "No worries. I catch on quickly."
The dance was choreographed so that it was split up into two groups; one was guys, the other, all girls. The guys danced first, then went stage right so the girls could come on.
They performed it once, and then Kagome nodded at the teacher and got into a spot on stage left. Inuyasha and Hojo's jaws dropped, knowing full well that she was actually going to try the dance. Ms. Yura raised an eyebrow, but let her try.
The boys got into there positions again and the music started.
People
Keep on learnin'
Soldiers
Keep on warrin'
World
Keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long
Powers
Keep on lyin'
While your people
Keep on dyin'
World
Keep on turnin'
Cause it won't be too long
Inuyasha was in the front with Hojo and ten other guys behind him in a triangular shape. The drums banged (in the song) and everyone did a toe-touch.
I'm so darn glad He let me try it again
'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' till I reach the highest ground.
Then the girls came on, Kagome in the front of the triangle. They all kicked once, and then went into doubles (pirouette).
Teachers
Keep on teachin'
Preachers
Keep on preachin'
World
Keep on turnin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh no
Lovers
Keep on lovin'
While believers
Keep on believin'
Sleepers
Just stop sleepin'
'Cause it won't be too long
Oh no
Then both the boys and girls came on and Kagome and Inuyasha went into the front. They danced together, although it practically looked as if they were battling each other.
I'm so darn glad He let me try it again
'Cause my last time on earth I lived a whole world of sin
I'm so glad that I know more than I knew then
Gonna keep on tryin' till I reach the highest ground
And Stevie knows that, uh, nobody's gonna bring me down
Till I reach the highest ground.
'Cause me 'n' Stevie, see, we're gonna be a sailin' on the funky sound
Till I reach the highest ground.
Bustin' out, and I'll break you out, 'cause I'm sailin' on
Till I reach the highest ground
Just, uh, sailin' on, sailin' on the higher ground
Then everyone kept doing pirouette after pirouette until the song ended.
Till I reach the highest ground
And then everyone collapsed on the ground, Inuyasha and Kagome lying next to each other.
(You should listen to Highest Ground and Yura Yura. Those songs are the best!)
