Author's Note: Here it is! The long awaited sequel to A Summer to Remember!!! It's based on Kagome and Sango in their senior year of high school. I really don't want to do a "school" story involving InuYasha characters because everyone does one…but it's the only thing that fits. So I guess I'll just have to make do. I have to thank my one friend (who will remain unnamed) for giving me some unexpected inspiration for this story. I hope you guys enjoy!!

LaTeR dAyZ!

The Best Years of Our Lives

Chapter 1: After it all

The soft music swept through the room gently waking up the sleeping girl. Her long ebony hair was strewn all over her pillow and blankets all over her bed. Her cat started pawing at the girl's arms trying to wake her up.

"Mmm…Buyo…go away…" She mumbled pushing the cat off.

"KAGOME! WAKE UP! YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR YOUR FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!" Her mom yelled from downstairs.

She opened her eyes to see it was 8:30, fifteen minutes until the tardy bell rings. Quickly getting up, showering, and dressing, Kagome Higurashi was on her way.

Running up to the school's front doors, the tardy bell started ringing signaling that school had begun. After about five minutes Kagome finally found her first class; her teacher already started.

"Ah…Miss Higurashi. You're late on you're first day of your senior year. I'll give you a warning this time. Please take your seat." The teacher said.

"I'm sorry sir, I promise I'll be on time next time." Kagome said, bowing, and taking her seat next to Sango.

"Hey girl! I should've known that you'd be late." Sango laughed and winked.

"Very funny…I slept through my alarm…again…" Kagome said yawning and sitting back in her chair.

"Miss Higurashi! I warned you about being late! Now I have to warn you about disturbing the class!" The teacher scolded again.

Kagome blushed and sunk lower into her chair. "This year is gonna go grrreeeaaattt…" She whispered to herself rolling her eyes.

Just about when Kagome was about to fall asleep the bell rang. The students fidgeted to grab all their books and scurry on out to their next class. Sango got up and waited for Kagome, who was still sleeping.

"KAGOME! WAKE UP! It's time to go!" Sango said shaking Kagome.

"Huh…what? Oh…man…that class took forever!" Kagome said grabbing her books and standing up.

Sango laughed. "You have no right to say that…"

"Why not?"

"You slept through the whole thing."

"Oh…oh well…lets get to our next class…" Kagome said heading for the door. Sango nodded and followed Kagome.

They walked into a smaller room with black topped tables made for two people to sit in. It was a biology class with posters and different animal, plant and body models everywhere. Kagome and Sango found a table half way towards the back and waited for all of the other students to file in and seat themselves. When everyone seemed to filter in and sit down two young men walked in and approached the teacher.

"Class…" The teacher said despite the fact that most of the students weren't paying attention. "Class!" He tried again, but no luck. He cleared his throat and tried for a third time. "CLASS!!" Everyone stopped and found a seat to sit in. "Class, We have two new students in our class today! Mr. Miroku Hanaki and Mr. InuYasha Takashi. There is an open table over there you can sit at." Both Miroku and InuYasha nodded their heads and took their seats.

Kagome and Sango's jaws dropped as their teacher introduced the new students. "Kagome! Oh my gosh Kagome! Are they who I think they are?!" Sango said leaning over to Kagome.

Kagome sunk low and sighed. "You're not imagining things." She said folding her arms.

"You still upset about that?"

"You would be too!"

"True…but still! It's been a whole entire summer since that happed! Let it go…please…"

Kagome sighed and sat up right. "I guess so…" She looked across the room trying not to stare at InuYasha. She noticed that quite a few of the other girls were staring at the two boys and giggling. Kagome leaned over to Sango. "Are you afraid that some girl is gonna 'steal' Miroku away from you?"

Sango laughed. "Nah…He's pretty solid. We've been writing e-mails back and forth to each other this past summer, but he never mentioned anything about coming to our school this summer."

Kagome mouthed an 'O'. This class seemed much longer only because a cause of a broken heart was there.

The bell rang and the students got up and filed out as usual. Before the boys got out of the room, Sango caught up and tapped Miroku on the shoulder.

"Hey you! What in the world are you doing here?" Sango giggled.

"Hey sexy! Um…SURPRISE!" Miroku laughed and hugged Sango.

"I'm gonna wait outside…" InuYasha said leaving the room.

"Ok man! I missed you so much girl!" Miroku said.

"I missed you too."

Kagome stood back and watched all the action happen. She was very happy for Miroku and Sango but felt empty inside. When Kagome saw InuYasha walk out without even looking or saying hello, her heart dropped passed the floor.

Sango saw Kagome standing alone and walked over to her. "Hey! Sorry about that…"

"Forget it. It's ok!" Kagome tried to smile.

"Nice to see you again Miss Kagome." Miroku bowed.

Kagome giggled. "Nice to see you again too. Ha ha…still as polite as ever."

Miroku smiled and looked at his watch. "I think we have a quite a bit of time between classes, would you want to find a spot to sit and chill?"

Sango perked up immediately. "I know the perfect place! Lets go!"

The three left the room, following Sango to the destination. Sango and Miroku started talking to each other and walked on. Kagome got distracted by starting to look for InuYasha and stopped following Sango and Miroku. There were several other students walking on by and standing around but none were InuYasha. Out of nowhere she heard a booming voice which she recognized. It was InuYasha. She walked down the hallway, opposite of the way Sango and Miroku were walking to, and turned the corner. Lo and behold did she find InuYasha, but with a harem of girls around him. They were playing with his hair, checking out his muscles and just overall hanging all over the guy. Kagome tried to hold in her anger and tears at the same time. When she started walking slowly towards him, InuYasha turned his head so his eyes met hers.
