Chapter 4:
Lunch and Love
Kouga grunted loudly as he bit his pencil's tip and stared angrily at Kagome who was combing her wet hair with her fingers. He couldn't believe that she, school's biggest geek was going to tutor him! I mean tutor one of the most popular boys in Shikon High! No kidding!
Some minutes ago, Professor Myouga had left the classroom and had been called to Principal Kaede's office to discuss some stuff with the PTA, Parents and Teachers Association, and left the students working on their math tests. Kagome wrote every answer fast and easily and in her eyes were reflected pure concentration and no hesitation in what she was doing. Kouga stared hatefully at her and wondered how in hell could a person enjoy studying. He cursed Professor Myouga under his breath and turned to his test. The pencil was almost a splinter because of all the biting and his test was almost empty, except for a few left outs of his eraser and a couple of answers which were awfully wrong. Rin was looking nervous but answered the questions and equations easily. That was a revelation for her, studying all the way through midnight worked! Sango answered her test slowly, step by step but sometimes she would give up and ask Kagome for the answer or at least a clue. Ayame was almost falling asleep as she wondered about the process of doing a calculation and she usually bit her nail or lip, then she grunted and turned to Rin's test to get the answer. Kikyou and her group were easily answering the query because of giving the answers to one another with their cell phones. Kouga wished he could do that but Myouga had taken his phone away in the beginning of the class since he was watching pornographic photos. Suddenly an idea came to his mind, he smirked and turned to Sesshoumaru's test. The demon didn't have to turn in order to know that Kouga was spying and just sighed heavily. Then his golden eyes met Kouga's.
"Listen, pal, if you dare copy of my test you sure are gonna regret it."
Kouga grinned mischievously, "Bring it on big boy I'm not afraid!"
Sesshoumaru's eyes flashed crimson for a second and long sharp fangs surged from out of his mouth. Kouga sweatdropped and made some distance from him. Sesshoumaru returned to normal and turned to Kouga with his usual cold and stern look. Stone was softer that his glare.
"Have I made myself clear?"
Kouga half nodded before returning his attention to his watch and started biting his pencil again.
´ Damn, I only have 10 more minutes left! ´
He yawned loudly and turned to the window in the left, where Ayame and Rin's desk was and next to them were Sango and Kagome who was already done with her test and was daydreaming and once in a while telling Sango the answers. He could see that the rain had not yet ceased and it had turned stronger. Since it was still morning it was not very bright and with the clouds in the way, it was worse. The cold breeze entered the classroom and a chill went down his spine. He sighed and continued his test. Suddenly he heard Kikyou giggling and turned to her. She was already done with her test and was reading a message in her cell phone. Apparently she was making fun of Kagome's intelligence and physics. She was wet and was not wearing clothes as good as hers. He then decided to get his own cell phone back and ask for the answers so he didn't have "Kagome the Geek" tutoring him after classes all afternoons. He slowly got up from his desk and looked around. The other students gave their attention to him and chuckled silently. He walked to Myouga's desk and started rummaging in between his papers and drawers. He found grades, old tests, pens, the exercises for next week, and a magazine named "The Hot Teenager", taken by Myouga from Kikyou one week ago. But not his cell phone, he found some of his previous "Kill Myouga Drawings" in a folder, but that was the only thing of his in the old man's desk.
" Are you looking for this?"
Kouga turned to the door and saw Professor Myouga frowning and holding his cell phone on the palm of his hand. Kouga smiled nervously as he slowly returned to his desk as Myouga's famous dead glare followed after him.
" Don't forget Mr. Ookami, Ms. Higurashi will be there every afternoon."

Professor Midoriko smiled broadly as she checked the exams but suddenly her grin turned into a frown. She glanced at the laughing teenagers on the back of the third row.
" Um, Mr. Urufu, what is this exactly?"
A boy with a punk hairdo and white hair turned to the teacher and got up.
" Could you please call me by my name, Miss? My name is Hakkaku."
" Yes but you last name is Urufu and I don't care about your name being Hakkaku or Gaylord. I want to talk to you about this test."
Hakkaku turned to the floor reproachfully and whined like a puppy.
" But my name is Hakkaku."
Professor Midoriko rolled her eyes in annulment " I know, I already know that your name is Hakkaku and I don't give a damn about it!"
After saying this, the students turned in surprise at Midoriko. She noticed what she had said and cleared her throat.
" Mr. Urufu..."
"Hakkaku."
" Yes, whatever, Hakkaku, when is it always that when I ask you something you start telling me your name?"
"Because that's my name."
After he said that the other classmates started chuckling.
" Perhaps, could you tell me what is this exactly?"
She showed Hakkaku's test, which was full of crosses from Midoriko's red pen, meaning all was wrong. Hakkaku gasped.
" I don't know, maybe I should have studied more."
He turned to the ground again.
" And this?"
She turned the test and drawn in its back was a quick sketch of Midoriko looking fierce and hitting a defenseless Hakkaku with a whip. Then written under it said, " Meanie!"
Hakkaku closed his eyes with fear and gulped.
" Well?"
The poor boy shrugged as cold sweat fell down his forehead. Midoriko returned her attention to the test and marked in it a big fat F. Then she showed it to Hakkaku.
" What do you have to say?"
Hakkaku was about to answer but suddenly he fainted. Midoriko sighed heavily and the students started laughing loudly.
" Don't get too work up about it Miss, Hakkaku's been that way since Kindergarten."
Midoriko turned to the owner of that voice and saw Inuyasha looking pretty bored.
" Excuse me Mr. Taiyoukai?"
" Yeah, Hakkaku has always been that shy. I remember that when young he would poo instead of faint and when he noticed what he had done, then he would faint. At least be thankful that he doesn't poo anymore."
Professor Midoriko smirked defiantly at Inuyasha.
" You should better watch your mouth Mr. Taiyoukai. This is not of your business."
Inuyasha returned the look.
" Of course it is, is it wrong to explain Hakkaku's actions? I mean, come on missy! If I don't tell you now you will suffer the rest of the year, as an example, he always suffers of partial amnesia the last week of classes."
" Stop it, Mr. Taiyoukai."
" Believe me, he will drive you crazy, so start trying to bear it."
Professor Midoriko frowned and that made Inuyasha and the other students flinch. Hakkaku half opened his eyes and when he saw the teacher's glare, he fainted again.
" Let me remind you who was late this morning and let me explain you about detention..."

The bell rang and all the students left their classrooms and headed to the cafeteria. It was till raining though less strong but it still was very cold. Kagome, Sango, Ayame, and Rin took their trays and served their lunches, then they sat on the table on the edge of the room. Kagome looked hatefully at Kikyou and their gang who were sitting on the table in the middle laughing and pointing at her. She turned away and started eating her food. Ayame munched her sandwich loudly while Rin enjoyed her sweat-flavored beans. Sango removed the hairs of the cook from her hamburger while Kagome drank her milk. She saw as Inuyasha entered the room and sat next to Kikyou and put an arm around her shoulder. Then she rested her head on his. She clenched her fist, sucked harder on her milk, and blushed. Then she took hold of his jacket and wrapped it tighter around her chest. Kagome's fingers brushed her damp hair while Sango looked at her. Kagome noticed and turned.
" What?"
Sango smiled, "Why are you nervous?"
Kagome let go of her hair and turned her face away, "What are you saying!"
Rin and Ayame heard the other girls' conversation and decided to step in, " What are you guys talking about?"
Sango turned to them with a frown, "Kagome is jealous about someone..."
Rin and Ayame leaned forward interested, " Of whom?"
Kagome grunted, " No one."
"Oh come on!" Her friends whined for her to tell them but she denied to, even Sango made puppy eyes.
" Let's change of topic, won't we?"
Sango and Ayame looked at her suspiciously while Rin smiled and sipped from her orange juice.
" I bet Kagome-chan knows someone special..."
Ayame and Sango looked at each other and smiled evilly.
"Who's the guy?" asked Ayame, " talk."
" Yes, talk." Repeated Sango.
The two girls were almost on top of Kagome who looked pretty nervous.
" Stop it girls!"
She turned her face away and stared at Inuyasha who was talking with his friends and girlfriend.
´ I'd like to talk to him again...´
She sighed hopeful and drank of her milk again. She squeezed hard on the package when Kikyou kissed his cheek. She started growling loudly and her friends stared at her in awe. It was not normal of Kagome to be so jealous about something and act that way. Ayame, Sango, and Rin looked at each other scared when suddenly Kagome's attitude changed. She was remembering when she saw him that morning and imagined she was his boyfriend and was the one kissing him in that moment instead of that bitch, Kikyou. Kagome sighed and continued daydreaming. She was lost in wonderland until Sango waved her hand in front of her and she noticed, then turned to her friend.
" What?"
" What boy gave you that jacket?"
Kagome flinched. " What are you talking about?"
"Confess! I know that is a man's jacket!"
Kagome smiled and blushed. " Oh he was just kind, I was soaked because of the rain so he..."
Sango smirked, " Who was it?"
Kagome turned to Inuyasha and sighed.
" Him."
The girl turned and smiled in awe.
" Him!"
Kagome nodded.
" You like him!" asked Sango smiling.
Kagome wondered about it and blushed.
" She does!" screamed the girls.
Inuyasha heard the racket and one of his ears tweaked, then he turned to the girls' table and saw Kagome. She blushed and slightly turned her face away but then turned back. He smiled and she blushed more. Sango, Ayame, and Rin smirked and whispered stuff in Kagome's ear.
" He's looking at you, maybe he likes you."
Kagome turned to them with a frown, " Don't be silly, he probably doesn't know I exist. I'm just another girl."
" Don't be stupid Kagome, say hi at least."
Kagome turned redder as she turned to Inuyasha again and sighed shyly. He waved back smiling and returned his attention to his friends' chat.
Kagome smiled broadly and touched her chest, he heart was bumping fast as she returned to her normal color.
" Hmm. I think he does like you Kagome-chan," said Sango smiling.
Kagome turned to her with hope in her eyes, " You really think so?"
" Of course, you could make a cute couple together," added Ayame, "I wonder if you become his girlfriend I would be closer to Kouga..."
Sango, Kagome, and Rin sweatdropped, "Ayame what are you thinking about?"
Kagome turned to Inuyasha again sighing and returned to her dream world.
" I like to think that way too, so I can finally find my happy ending..."
She continued looking at her prince charming with shiny eyes and sighed.
´ ... and live happily ever after...´
Meanwhile Kikyou, Inuyasha, and their friends were chatting happily and she noticed Inuyasha had waved at someone and looked at him curiously.
" To whom were you waving at, darling?"
Inuyasha turned to her.
" No one, pumpkin, it's no one..."
