Kagome The Achiever

Sorry it's taking so long! I have major writing block! Mesa sorry! I'll try to find a way to make this all come to a perfect ending, but I don't know. I might never finish this! WAHHHHH!

On wit it

Kagome sat on her bed again, staring at her ring. The sacred ring of engagement. When he had slipped it on her finger, she expected it to remain. But now, they were apart. Kagome couldn't help but stare. She couldn't throw it away, but she couldn't give it to him. It was a hard call. She loved being engaged, but Sesshomaru had twisted her heart. He had become the cold jerk he used to be. Kagome shook her head as she remembered how he had treated her in 3rd grade. He pushed her around and teased her, never laughing, with all of his popular friends. Now he was sure to have fan girls again. They would give her looks saying just how triumphant they were to take her place. But somewhere, Kagome knew that she still had a place beside Sesshomaru. She always would. "No matter what Kagome, you will always have a place in my heart, not one girl can even dream of filling." Kagome loved that sentence. It had made her crushing heart jump to her throat. He had made that promise along time ago, and he never broke it. No matter what type of fight they got in.

Kagome decided to keep the ring, right there on her left ring finger. It was her constellation prize, and she accepted it wholeheartedly. At least she got something out of this rocky relationship.

………………………………………………………………………………………………

Sesshomaru walked alone to school the next day. He found that he didn't like it at all. And another problem, jealousy was swelling up in him that morning.

FLASHBACK MORNING:

Sesshomaru walked to the door as the bell rang. When he opened it, he felt a wave of joy. Kagome had come. "Yes Kagome?" Sesshomaru tried to keep his voice monotone as he spoke to the girl he loved.

"I'm here to walk with Inu Yasha to school, assuming he is feeling better now." Sesshomaru felt a pang at his heart. She wasn't there for him. She wanted Inu Yasha.

"He is still in a bad condition."

"But not so bad as to where I can't go to school with Kagome." Sesshomaru groaned mentally at his brother. He just had to come down right at that moment.

"Fine. You two go. Have fun." Sesshomaru ushered Inu Yasha out the door and slammed it shut. "Kagome." With that, he turned and grabbed his backpack, leaving a little ways behind them.

END

Now Sesshomaru had to watch as they giggled and talked. The two were old friends, so it figures, but now they acted closer than before. He knew Inu Yasha was in love with Kagome, but was she returning the feelings now? No. They had just broken up. It takes longer than that for a woman to heal her heart. But she had known Inu Yasha longer than she had known Sesshomaru. So maybe it was easy for her to just fall for him. Whatever it was, he still didn't like the way they looked at each other. But two could play that game.

Kagome-

Have you ever felt lost and alone? You know, like walking down a very familiar street, but feeling as if it is the wrong street to turn on? Well, that's how Kagome felt in the school halls. Sesshomaru was gone, and she now felt alone. Inu yasha was the greatest comfort she had. Kagome could remember back far before Inu yasha showed any feelings for her at all. She had liked him then. But at that time, they were to young to understand a relationship. So why did Kagome feel that if Sesshomaru was really gone, Inu Yasha would be the one she would fall for? Shouldn't she be older than that?

All Kagome could tell was the terrible feeling in the pit of her stomach as she looked up with her chocolate eyes to the faces of the others, all chatting away, or kissing their boyfriends and girlfriends. Kagome felt so alone as she stopped at her locker by one 'happy' couple.

"Course' I didn't forget to buy you a birthday present honey." The girl had a screechy voice. It was highly annoying. The taller male lowered his face to hers and whispered something in her ear. Kagome raised her eyebrows when the girl smiled a giddy smile and blushed as red as a tomato. What was this?

Kagome sighed as she turned toward her class, only to be spotted by the class clown, and yet, the one that many girls had their eyes on. Chad. He looked at her, and all Kagome could do was notice the sparkle in his eye as she knew it meant he was about to go full force whacko on her.

"Hi Kagome! We," he started, "were just discussing a very important topic." Kagome nodded her head to signal her attention was dawning. "You see, we were talking about our underwear brand. I think mine are the coolest as they are called, 'The Phat Farm', but Brandon here thinks his are better because they say Hanes her way." Kagome resisted a snort. Who dressed Brandon that morning? Then Chad gestured to Austin.

"He say's his are better because it says 'talk to the palm cuz' your not the bomb'. What do you think Kagome?" Kagome stood there stupidly.

"Sort out your priorities, then get back to me." With that, Kagome walked to her next class. When she entered, she just had to burst out laughing. That had to be the weirdest subject she had ever been a part of! But of course when she did that, the whole class stared at her. Kagome grinned nervously and took her seat, face beat red.

Sesshomaru-

Sesshomaru walked to his first period with a flock of girls surrounding him. This was how he would play the game. He was always considered a ladies man. But he shared first period with Kagome. He dreaded the look she would have on her face when she saw this. Sesshomaru shrugged it off and walked into the classroom.

She sat in the back, a cloud of shadow over her. Sesshomaru knew she wasn't feeling happy. But no matter. He was supposed to feel better now that Naraku couldn't harm her. But deep down Sesshomaru knew better than to trust him.

So now you may ask, why did he accept? Well, Sesshomaru is no idiot. Naraku wanted them broken up. Naraku never said that Sesshomaru wasn't allowed to watch over the girl and protect her. But would Sesshomaru feel the need to protect her if they weren't friends anymore? Sesshomaru sighed as he took his seat. This was going to be a long lifetime. Darn it all.

Kagome-

Kagome sat in a dazed state as the teachers voice droned on about neutrons, electrons, and protons. Science was too boring for Kagome. She leaned her head on her palm and took in the fresh scent from the open window.

Yeah, sure. She had seen the fan girls scurry around Sesshomaru, but he was an ex. It was time for her to just move on. Besides, she had noticed Inu yasha giving her sideway glances. She sort of thought he was cute. It all started in third grade. She had met Inu Yasha and the two became fast friends. At the time, he would talk about Kikyou all the time. He truly liked her. But then her mutual feelings turned to hate as the old 'boy's have cooties' reached her ears. For five years she believed it. Shame, because that made Inu yasha fall for Kagome instead.

Kagome smiled as she recalled it all. Her life had been normal, until Naraku and his gang came in.

"Kagome. Ms. Higurashi! Listen right now!" Kagome was startled out of her slumber as the teachers sharp and angered voice cut through her thoughts like a predators fangs cuts through the meat of it's prey.

"Yes, Ms. Kaede?" The old teacher looked at the young one, still not very pleased.

"You may not daydream, ye hear?"

"Yes Kaede."

"It's Ms. Kaede to you."

"Yes Ms. Kaede. Gomen." Kagome bowed her head and folded her hands. It was going to be a long lifetime. Confonnit.

somewhere distant-

"Kanna, Kagura. Come." Naraku beckoned two females forward to his chambers.

"Yes? How may we help you?"

"You are to assist me this time in the downfall of Kagome Higurashi. Do you understand?"

"Yes master. We will do all we can." The two females bowed respectfully and slowly backed out of the room, closing the oak doors behind them.

"Now I must create my puppets. Kagome will be mine, and only mine."
-

Sesshomaru, Inu yasha, and Kagome all winced suddenly at the same time. Someone was plotting something, and as the three tried to decided who, it all led to one person. Naraku. Kagome wasn't to excited at this impulse. And apparently neither was Sesshomaru as he suddenly stood and swiftly left the classroom, leaving behind a protesting Kaede and an awe struck class.

"Ms, Higurashi, please get that boy."

"Yes Ms. Kaede." Kagome stood and ran after the before mentioned.

"Sesshomaru! What is with you all of a sudden?", screamed questioned Kagome as she trailed after him across the courtyard. Aware of her presence he stopped.

"Kagome, don't step any closer." Kagome's eyes watered.

"Why not, Sesshomaru?" Kagome took one step.

"Kagome…" Her hand held his shoulder and turned him to face her.

What she saw was immaculate… and very dangerous.

Took me long enough, no? Sorry! I just have to much to do! Well, got to go to bed. REVIEW PLEASE!

Thanks to:

Azaria: You wouldn't use that dagger on little old me now would you? And will I get them together? Hmmmm, maybe… Depends what mood I am in. Wouldn't you like to know… Thanx for the review!

Tigeris: Naraku's no walk in the park I should say. I can't keep stuff like that secret. Sorry! But it might change… dunno… Yeah it was obvious, but I'm predictable so… yeah. And I always read the last page of a book before the first. Don't you? O.o Thanx for the review!

Evil Toilet Paper: Naraku was stupid to believe Sesshomaru was telling the truth when he agreed. Sesshomaru only said he would break up and not be seen with Kagome… never that he wouldn't watch over Kagome… -wink wink- K, thanx so much!

Inu Kaiba: I did as you said, and you were right! You usually are though… I also fixed chapter one, but it messed up the stinking name again. Now it's normal 'Skater Boy' I tried to make it right but it didn't fix it properly. Sigh. Thanx!

Angel-demoness7: Anything for my reviewers! .

Sesshomarolover: Sorry it confused you. I suck with point of view changing ya know! I was confused when I read over it as well. But I'm always confused… Thanx!

Aqua Miko: He trusted Naraku because haven't we all seen how persuading Naraku is? Besides, like I said to Evil Toilet Paper, Naraku was the stupid one as well. And Sess is cruel, but I had to change him a little. You know? Thanx!

Tenshi Yoma: I'm glad you kind of like it! Yeah, bout' Confused. We made amends thank goodness, and we are on good terms. She really is nice. And I didn't mean to go hard on her! Thank you for the review!
