A New Start

Chapter 1

Kagome sighed as she looked out the window of the school bus. Why me? she thought to herself. Why do all of my friends have to move away? Just the thought of all her friends gone, brought tears to her beautiful soft brown eyes. Not long ago the last of her best friends moved away. Was it just a coincidence? Or was it fate…

As Kagome stepped off the school bus a girl that seemed to be the same age as Kagome walked up to her.

"Konnichiwa! My name is Sango." the girl said. " I was wondering if you could help me around."

Taken by surprise Kagome stuttered "Oh, umm… sure thing. By the way I'm Kagome, nice to meet you." Could it be that my luck has finally changed? thought Kagome.

"I can't believe we have most of our classes together!" exclaimed Sango. "This is great! I just came to this school and I already have a new friend." Kagome smiled happily as they sat down at a lunch table.

"So why did you come to this school?" Kagome asked.

"Oh, well my old school got shut down for some reason, so some of the students came here. Like my friends Mi-"

"SANGO!" shouted a boy from across the cafeteria. Everyone stared at the boy, but he didn't notice, he just rushed over to Sango.

"God Miroku! You didn't have to shout my name so loud!" blushed Sango. But Miroku didn't hear anything, he was staring at the girl that was sitting next to Sango.

"And who might this beautiful young lady be?" asked Miroku.

"Kagome is her name, I-" again Sango was ignored.

"Kagome! Will you bear my child?" Miroku said holding Kagome's hands. Kagome blushed furiously.

"Miroku, are you scaring girls again?" demanded a voice behind Miroku. Kagome gasped when she saw who the voice belonged to. A boy with long silver hair and cute dog ears (I included them cuz they are to kawaii to be left out) walked over and sat down across from Kagome.

"This is Inuyasha." said Sango while glaring at Miroku. "These two are my friends from my old school."

Kagome stood up to shake hands with each. "No need to be so formal Kagome, but I'll gladly take your hand." Miroku said, reaching for Kagome's hands.

But Sango slapped his hands away. "Stop flirting Miroku!" Kagome watched from aside as the two were arguing.

"So Kagome, do you have a twin sister?" Inuyasha asked.

"Huh?" said Kagome confused. "Umm… No I don't, why do you ask?" "Oh, no reason just wondering." Inuyasha answered quickly. Kagome looked at Inuyasha, she noticed he looked kind of angered or something of the sort. But something else she saw caught her attention. There were a pair of gorgeous amber eyes staring of into nothingness. "Riiiiing!" The ring of the bell broke Kagome's thoughts.

As Kagome rushed to her next class she couldn't help but think about those beautiful amber eyes.

"Ow!" Kagome cried as she bumped into a boy.

"Hey! Watch where your walking!" shouted the boy. Kagome looked up and saw Inuyasha.

"Oh! Kagome it's you. I'm sorry, are you ok?" his voice from before totally changed and his angry expression faded away, turning into a worried expression.

"I'm alright. It was my fault, I wasn't watching where I was going." Kagome said as she struggled to get up.

"Here" Inuyasha said as he extended a hand to her.

"Thanks." Kagome said gratefully, as she took his hand.

"Are you hurt any where? Do you need to go to the nurses office?" Inuyasha asked Kagome with a worried expression on his face. Why is this guy so nice to me? I mean we just met, and before he realized it was me he seemed pretty mean Kagome thought.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha said breaking her thoughts.

"Oh, sorry, my mind was wondering off. And no I'm not hurt." Kagome replied as she stood up. "Ow!" Kagome screamed as a pain shot through her ankle. She stumbled backward. Fortunately Inuyasha caught her.

"And you said you weren't hurt. So tell me where are you hurt?" Inuyasha questioned her.

A bit reluctant, Kagome answered "My ankle…"

With that Inuyasha ran into the classroom and told the teacher he was going to take Kagome to the nurses office because she hurt her ankle.

"Sorry." Inuyasha said as he picked Kagome up and carried her bridal-style. Surprised, Kagome wrapped her arms around Inuyasha's neck. After she realized what she had done, she blushed furiously.

At that moment the bell rang again, signaling it was time for class to start. Thankfully there aren't any students in the hallways Kagome sighed a breath of relief.

"So how much does your ankle hurt?" Inuyasha asked, breaking the silence in the hallway.

"It's alright, I think I only twisted it." She said.

"I'm sorry, I-" but Inuyasha got cut off.

"No need to say sorry. It was my own fault. I was day dreaming." Kagome said.

"So what were you day dreaming about?" Inuyasha asked curiously. Kagome saw the confusion in Inuyasha's eyes as he saw her blush.

"Umm … Nothing really. Oh we're here." Kagome quickly changed the subject.

A little reluctant, Inuyasha let her change the subject. "Yep, can you help me open the door?"

"Oops, I forgot." Kagome said as she opened the door.

They were greeted by a middle aged, chubby lady. "Hello! What a cute couple!" the lady exclaimed with a voice as sweet as sugar. Inuyasha and Kagome blushed furiously.

"It's not what you think! It's just that I hurt my ankle, so he carried me here." Kagome explained quickly.

"Oh! Then let's take a look at your ankle!" said the chubby lady. "You can set her down right there." she continued, pointing at the examining bed. Gently Inuyasha set Kagome down.

"Umm… Well I guess I better get back to class." said Inuyasha.

"Thank you Inuyasha!" Kagome said thankfully. "'Welcome!" Replied Inuyasha as he sped out the room.

"Please walk!" shouted the cubby lady. They heard Inuyasha's foot steps slow down.

"Now, time to look at your ankle."

"Kagome!" shouted a girl. Kagome turned toward the voice. "Sango you won't believe wha-" Kagome stopped in mid-sentence as she saw so was with Sango.

"Sup." Inuyasha said shortly.

"Hi…" Kagome said blushing. Sango didn't notice the awkwardness between Kagome and Inuyasha.

"I heard from Inuyasha that you hurt your ankle are you ok?"

Yea, I'm fine now. I just can't put much weight on it." replied Kagome, trying to hide the awkwardness. Did Inuyasha tell Sango about him carrying me bridal-style? Kagome wondered.

"SANGO!" a boy called.

"Run!" screamed Sango as she grabbed Kagome.

"Wait!" Inuyasha called. But it was to late. Sango already pulled Kagome forward. Kagome stumbled, her arms flailing. Again she was saved by Inuyasha (Inuyasha to the rescue!).

"Arigato!" Kagome said, as she pulled away from Inuyasha's arms.

"I am so sorry!" Sango said. "I totally forgot about your ankle when Miroku called out my name."

"It's ok Sango. No damage done." said Kagome trying to reassure Sango. Trying to change the subject Kagome said "What bus do you take?"

Sango gladly changed the subject with her. "I have bus number 22. So does Inuyasha and Miroku."

"That's great!" exclaimed Kagome. "We have the same bus! But how come I didn't see you in the morning?"

"Oh, that's because we weren't sure which bus to take till now." Sango replied for them all.

"Well follow me then." Kagome said.
