Fool in love: I am not even sure and I don't want to give away the ending.
Riku: Thanks, feels good!
Here's chapter 5…
Chapter 5: First Day of Grade 10"Hey Kagome." Inuyasha greeted her at the lockers.
"Hello Inuyasha. How's my favorite dog-boy (N/A: he had to stay a dog demon, the ears make him, him!)?" Kagome took to massaging his ears.
"Stop it. He's good." Inuyasha smiled. "How are thing with you and Hojo?"
"There, okay." Kagome looked away.
"Oh, alright. What class do you have first?"
"Science, you?"
"Geography. Well that sucks, I asked Miroku and Kouga, neither on of them have any classes this semester with me." Inuyasha pouted.
"What about Kikyo?"
"I have 2nd and 4th period with her."
"Oh. Well it's not that bad then." The two started walking down the hallway to the bathrooms.
"I guess not."
"Yea. So I heard that Sesshoumaru is graduating this year." Kagome smiled.
"Mhmm. Finally, once he moves out, house all to myself." Inuyasha laughed.
(Sango)
"Another new year starts, from a lousy summer." Sango sighed.
"Heh, it wasn't that bad." Kouga walked up beside her.
"So, I hear that Inuyasha was talking to you again." Sango grinned evily.
"Yea, turns out not one of his friends is in his first class. It's quite funny." Kouga smiled.
"I bet. Speaking of which, what class DOES her have first?" Sang asked.
"Geography."
"What? That's my first class. Oh god." Sango sank to the floor.
"Meh, it'll be okay." Kouga said as the warning bell rang. The two scurried off in their own directions to their 1st period classes.
Sango hung her head as she walked into her geography class with Professor Toushi. She sat by herself at a table near the back, until a black hair boy sat next to her.
"Is this seat taken?" The boy asked.
"Uh no. Sit, please." Sango blushed. Inuyasha sat on chair in front with Eri.
"My name is Kuranosuke."
"Oh, you must be the new kid around here. I am Sango."
"Okay class…" The teacher began.
---------------- ---------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------
The buzzer rang and Sango and Kuranosuke walked down the hall together.
"So what's your next class?" Sango asked.
"Science." Kuranosuke finished.
"Oh that's great, me too."
"Cool. Strange, but cool." Kuranosuke's eyes were dreamy.
"Hey Sango." Kouga greeted as she and Kuranosuke walked into the class. "Who's this?"
"Kuranosuke." He introduced himself.
"Oh hi. I'm Kouga." The other 2 sat with him.
"Class today I will be assigning each of you with a lab partner." Mr. Youtoi began.
"Sweet." Kouga smiled at Sango.
"Ayame and Kouga."
'No!' Kouga screamed in his head.
Yuka and Naraku, Inuyasha and Kikyo, Kuranosuke and Sango…" The teacher continued by Sango paid no attention.
The final buzzer before lunch rang. Kuranosuke and Sango sat at a lone lunch table, then Kouga and Ayame walked by.
"Hey you two, come join us." Sango waved. They did, but she received glares from Inuyasha and Kagome who sat with Miroku and Hojo.
"So how were your morning classes?" Ayame asked.
"Good." Sango and Kuranosuke said at once.
The end of the day came at a slow pace.
"So Sango, where do you live?" Kuranosuke asked as he met her at the lockers.
"A few blocks from here, but I have to work tonight." Sango smiled.
"Oh really, where do you work?"
"The food court at the mall, with Kouga."
"Oh cool. Well I'll see you tomorrow then."
"Yea, I guess so." Sango walked out of the school and waved good bye. Kouga walked up with her.
"So, made new friends already, eh?" Kouga made a stupid eyebrow movement.
"I guess." Sango blushed.
"So…how was school?"
"Boring, as usual."
"So true."
"Yeah, so how are thing on friend edge?"
"Good, everyone is talking to me now. Miroku said he was going to talk to you one day soon. So heads up." Thanks, but, I really don't think I should talk to him."
"Why not?"
"I may say something stupid."
"I don't think so."
"Okay."
---------------- ---------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------
Can't deny itCan't pretend
Just thought you were the one
Broken up deep inside
But you won't get to see the tears I cry
Behind these hazel eyes
"I love this song." Sango danced as she and Kouga walked through the mall at 7 once they got off work.
"Uh sure. B.Y.O.B. is still better."
"No chance."
"Hey Sango." Kuranosuke said as he spotted her with Kouga. He was with Kagome and Miroku.
"What on Earth are they doing with him?" Sango freaked.
"No clue." Kouga tried to make her relax. They walked right up to them.
"So Sango, I met some more of your friends." Kuranosuke laughed.
"Huh? Uh sure, umm look I have to go home, I will see you at school." Sango's pace quickened as she aimed for the door.
"Aw, why don't you stay and shop with us?" Kagome's voice was sweet and sincere.
'Is she for real, I bet it's just because of Kuranosuke/' Sango grouched in her mind. "Umm, maybe some other time."
"Nonsense. Kuranosuke and Miroku have to go home for supper, and I need someone to shop with." She sounded true enough.
"Come on Sango, do it. What could happen?" Kouga pushed her.
"Fine, but I have to be home by 10." Sango gave in.
"YAY! Come on, I saw the cutest tops at stitches." Kagome grabbed Sango's hand as they ran towards the retail stores.
"Umm Kagome?"
"Yea?"
"Does this mean that you're talking to me again, and that we're friends?"
"Duh! Look I know you're sorry, and I also know what it feels like, to really like someone. Don't tell anyone, but Hojo and I aren't dating anymore, well we are, but it's just been weird, I think he's going to break up with me."
"Oh, why?"
"I think I like Inuyasha."
"What you're kidding!"
"No! I mean things have always been sort of interesting between us, and now I know why. I love him!" Kagome spun around.
"That's…great!" Sango let her gaze slide to the floor.
"Yep. Thank you Sango. Oh and for the record, no body else is mad at you anymore, we all had a very long discussion, which was when Kouga saved his and your hide." Kagome laughed.
"Oh, well that's good, I guess." Sango scrunched up her nose.
"Uh huh. So what's going on with you and Kouga anyways?"
"Uh? Nothing! Why do you ask?" Sango was confused.
"Well you two have been spending a lot of time together, do you like him?" Kagome asked.
"No!"
"Then you like Kuranosuke?"
"Umm I don't really know." Sango blushed. 'Actually I still like Miroku.'
"Well it's either you do or you don't. So what is it?" Kagome frowned.
Sango fiddled with a small jewelry bow on the shelf in front of her. "He's a nice guy, but…"
'But, what?"
"I've only known him for a day. That's not even enough time to know his whole name." Sango smiled.
"So, you must know him enough." Kagome stopped. "I'm sorry, I've been around Inuyasha too much."
"It's alright." Sango let out a laugh.
---------------- ---------------------- ----------------------- ----------------------
"Hey Kagome." Sota greeted his sister.
"Hey."
"Inuyasha and Hojo called." Sota told her as he came down the stairs.
"Oh?"
"Yea."
'Hmm, I'll call Inuyasha first.' She let the phone ring and ring.
"Hello, Inuyasha. It's Kagome. I got your message."
"Cool. I called to see if you wanted to do something later with Miroku and me."
"Oh, well I don't know. Hojo and I are supposed to be doing something, but he called. How about I talk to him and call you back?"
"Good." Click.
"No manners at all."
"Hello, Hojo speaking."
"Hello Hojo, it's Kagome."
"Oh yes. I was wondering if we could reschedule sometime, or not."
"What do you mean?"
"Well Kagome. I'd rather do this in person."
"Oh, and what's that." Kagome knew what he was going to say.
"Well we just seem to not be connecting lately, and don't you agree. I also believe that it was much better when we were friends." Hojo said in one breath.
"Yes, I do agree, I understand. I do believe that we are better friends." Kagome's breaths sharpened. "We will just move on then."
"Of course. It was nice to get this out. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Mhmm, good bye."
"Good bye." Click.
"Well that was harder than I thought." A single tear slid down her rosy cheek. "I'll just walk over to Inuyasha's. He'll understand."
Knock knock
"Coming."
"Hurry."
"Oh hello Kag-" Inuyasha cut himself off when he noticed she was crying. "Are you alright?"
"No, no I'm not." Kagome cried.
"Oh what's the matter?" He closed the door behind her.
"Hojo and I broke up." She tossed her head around trying to stop the tears.
"What, why?" Inuyasha pulled her down onto the couch.
"We just, well didn't connect. Oh man, why did I come her. I'll go to Ayume's." Kagome started to stand when Inuyasha pulled her back down.
"Why bother her, when you're already, HERE."
"Huh? I guess, but didn't you have plans?"
"Feh. I didn't really, I was just bored. Miroku's not coming over for at least 20 more minutes."
"I see. Well I don't want to be bothersome. I'll go see umm…" 'Darn. Who can I talk to, Eri, no, she'll make me go talk to him, Yuka, no she's still on vacation, Ayume lives across town. I know, SANGO. Man I love having her back.' "…I'll go talk to Sango."
"Oh, you sure?"
"Mhmm."
"Okay, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then."
"Sure will." Kagome left and walked to Sango's.
