Just Another Day
Ch. 3 -- "Huh?"

Kagome was wandering through her school day lost in thought. She was
thinking about what '...' could possibly want from her. 'I hope everything
will be alright.' she thought to herself as she headed to her Math class.
She took her seat next to InuYasha and resumed her day dreaming when...

"Kagome, what's the answer to number eight?" Kagome didn't even hear her
teacher, Mr. Hippo (XD), she was so worried about what would happen later
that afternoon.

"Kagome, are you paying attention?"

"KAGOME!!!"

At this InuYasha nudged her to bring her back from her own thoughts.

"Huh? What? Oh... S-Sorry Mr. Hippo..."

"It's alright, now what is the answer to number eight?"

"Um..."

At this InuYasha shook his head holding back a laugh and slid his paper over
slightly so Kagome could read his answer. Kagome nodded slightly so that Mr.
Hippo wouldn't see and read out his answer.

"10.42..."

Before she could finish reading out the answer, the bell signaling that it
was time to change classes rang odd. Mr. Hippo sighed rather loudly.

"Well I guess we will finish checking tomorrow. You may all go now....
Except for you Kagome. I would like to speak to you for a moment."

Kagome gulped, "Oh boy not again" she muttered as she stood up. As he was
walking out, Miroku leaned over to her and whispered, "We will be waiting
outside the classroom for you." She nodded and made her was over to Mr. Hippo.

"M-Mr. Hippo?... You wanted to see.... m-me?"

"Yes Kagome. What was wrong with you today? You always pay attention in
class. Is something wrong?"

"N-No nothing. I was just thinking and I guess I just.... Kinda.." Mr. Hippo
stopped her there.

"I understand. Would you like to visit the guidance counselor? She can help
you sort out these thoughts." He patted her arm in an understanding way.

"Huh what? Wait no! Not those kind of thoughts! Just thoughts."

"Uh well if you are sure then I guess you may go then." He opened the door
to let her out and an eavesdropping InuYasha and Miroku toppled in. They
were leaning at the door trying to hear what Mr. Hippo and Kagome were
talking about when he opened the door. Sango stood there with her arm
crossed and shook he head. They were really immature at times.

"Mr. InuYasha. Mr. Miroku. You weren't trying to listen in now were you?"
Mr. Hippo asked looking down at the two entangled on the ground. They stood
up and shook their heads. "No sir. We were just..." InuYasha started. And
Miroku finished for him. "Trying to get my money. I dropped it and we can't
find it." Mr. Hippo nodded. "I see. Well I hope you find it." and with that
he closed the door. Kagome burst out laughing then. Not only did she know
exactly what the two were doing at the door but also Mr. Hippo was just so
gullible sometimes. Sango soon started laughing along with her and InuYasha
and Miroku took a bow and then joined in with the laughing. They were having
a good time laughing and joking and Kagome had forgotten all her worry about
later that day when they realized they were late for class. They all started
to run as fast as they could to get to PE although Kagome really didn't want
to go. She hated PE more than anything.

When they got there they all tumbled through the door wanting to get in at
the same time and ended up in a heap on the floor.

"Wow! Get off of me!"

"Ahhh watch the ear Sango!"

"Stop groping me Miroku!" -Slap! -

"Sorry, Sorry! I mean it! Didn't see you there." -sheepish grin-

At this their Gym teacher Mrs. Sonya walked over to them. "Kagome! InuYasha!
Miroku! Sango! Just what do you think you are doing?? You are disturbing the
game and more importantly you are late!! I would like to speak to you all
after class." They nodded and replied in unison "Yes Mrs. Sonya." and got up
all rubbing something that was sore from being hit or squashed.

"Good now go join your teams. We are playing dodgeball." They all went to
join their teams. InuYasha and Kagome were on one team, and Miroku and Sango
were on the other. As Kagome ducked away from a ball thrown by her rival
Kikyo, she said to InuYasha, "Why must this keep happening to me. This is
the second time I have gotten in trouble today. As if I do not have enough
going on today as it is!" InuYasha shrugged. "Hey not my fault." Kagome
nodded watching InuYasha catch a ball and hurl it at Koga. "I know. It is
just that it is so frustrating what with note business, getting in trouble,
and all the homework that we are getting! What is with Mrs. Hiyata anyway?
She has given so much homework lately that it is crazy! We have like no time
for anything else!"

"I don't know but obviously something. Hey maybe it is her writing the notes
and she wants to take you hostage or something. He growled at this point. If
it is I swear I will tear her apart."

Kagome giggled. InuYasha was always so protective of her since they became
friends. She was starting to wonder if Sango was right when she suggested
that InuYasha like her. He was always especially nice and protective of
her..... She was then woken out of her thoughts when -BONG! - She was hit in
the head with the dodgeball. "Owwwww... Who threw that one! That really
hurt!" When she looked up InuYasha was looking down at her and asking her
repeatedly if she was all right. She nodded at him and stood up and shouted.
"Ok who threw that one it really hurt!!"

She looked around at the other tam and saw Mrs. Hiyata's son, Jofen,
laughing hysterically. She got extremely angry at this and shouted again...

"JOFEN DID YOU THROW THAT BALL AT ME???"

Jofen nodded still laughing and said, "You should have seen your face when I
threw that at you, it was classic!" Kagome glared at him and noticed that
InuYasha had stepped to be beside her. She was a bit but not entirely
shocked at the look on his face. He looked... well let's just say that if
looks could kill.... Jofen would be dead on the spot.

ever guess but go ahead and try if you wish. Please review! I will try and
get another chapter up tomorrow. But the last chapter came up slow so who
knows how long this one will take. And if you read the story please review
and tell me what you think I'm begging you! Please! Ok so that is all for
now and I will try and post up another chapter tomorrow maybe. So now before
I repeat myself any more.... I shall go study for my midterms while watching
