HI! One of my reviews suggested a plot. YES! There is, indeed, a plot. This chapter will surprise you a bit. (not really, but hey)

Sorry they are so short, I'm having trouble getting time on the computer. HERE IT IS!!

"Hojou... You really don't have to walk me." Kagome groaned loudly, trudging miserably behind the poor clueless boy.

"Oh, I wanted to."

"That's not what I meant." She muttered under her breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing."

"Okay. You look thinner, did you catch some kind of flu?" He asked curiously, looking wide-eyed into her face.

"Yes. And stomach worms," She snorted.

"Really?! Gross." He cried childishly, wiggling his fingers in her annoyed face.

"I'm going to stop at the store. My doctor says that I will kill all of their larvae by drinking diet coke. With lime."

"I'll wait for you."

"No, it's fine, you can go."

"If you think I don't want to, I do." He said happily.

"I don't." She snapped, letting the convenience store door close behind her. Hojou shook his head after her.

"Must be PMS." He muttered, continuing on his way. Inside the store, Kagome cried bitterly, wishing that she had just stayed home to die. Why had mom told him? Stupid Hojou, he couldn't read body language worth shit.

She picked out a coke, and put it on the counter grumpily, also picking up a pack of gum. If she were breaking a rule, she might as well break it to her advantage. Stupid school rules. According to the school board, I'm a student until I go home.

Sighing sadly, and wishing that he were here, she pulled out her small pink wallet. Everything looked so happy. Even the man on the bill was smiling. She crammed it in the lady's hands, and walked away without getting her change. Those people needed the money anyway. Smiling at her own thoughts grimly, she continued on her way to school, opening the coke and taking a sip.

She greeted the front of her school with a grimace, and climbed the front stairs slowly. She still had an hour until classes began, so she would wait in her classroom. There will be some dorks there who are always there early.

The lights were on in the classroom, and she opened the door slowly. There was no one there. Shrugging lightly, she dumped her brief case onto the chair beside her and sat with a 'fwump'. Kagome pulled out her sketchbook, and began to make a face. It was square, with a strong jaw. She drew the lines for the eyes and nose lightly, and sketched the hair. She blinked, and added a feature of her own. Ears. So this would be a picture of her Inu-yasha. The eyes turned out perfect, along with his mouth. She drew him with a heavy scowl.

'Just like the old times.'

Then came the red Haori. Sure, the picture was a bit ragged on the edges, but so was he.

"It's good."

Kagome jumped in her seat, and toppled backwards. No one was supposed to be here. Besides... That voice.

"What!?" She exclaimed loudly. "What-"

"Jeez, you don't have to freak out, woman. I was just saying your drawing was good." The young man scoffed.

She got up on her elbows and peered into his face. There was no doubt.

"Inu-"

"Kagome! Do you need help?!" Ayame cried, rushing to her friend's aid. Kagome had not noticed, but while she was working, the room had steadily filled with students. Kagome waved off the offer of help, and looked around. Where'd he go?

"Who was that?" Kagome asked uncertainly. "The boy with white hair."

"Oh him. He's the hottest topic of the school! That's Taishou."

"Taishou?"

"Well, that's what everyone calls him. His first name is a little scary."

Kagome leaned in for the little tidbit of information that she had been looking forward to.

"Kagome!" Eri squealed, wringing her friend's hand. "Do you need help getting up? I think that fall gave you some bruises." She said pointedly, staring at the raven-haired girl's scars.

"Eri. What a nice surprise." Kagome grumbled, getting up, and dusting off her skirt. "No, these are old. I had a seizure."

Across the room, a pair of golden orbs watched her. She was lying, and he knew it.

END of chappie! Does Inu know her?? Why is he there? Is it even him? Read the next chapter to have some of the questions answered!

Sorry guys. Next update 30 reviews. I hate to do it, but I need the support. Besides, that's only ten reviewers reviewing for three of my four chapters! You can do it! Yes you can!

--;;;; Teashop. I swear someone's out to get me. Sorry, My computer has 'auto change' and changes 'Taishou' to teashop. Whoever came up with "taishou' as a last name for Inu is a genius. I do not know what it means, nor do I care. PEACE.
