A/N: Here you go with another chapter of this wonderful story. Sit back and read what a jerk Inuyasha is.

Disclaimer: Realized I didn't put a disclaimer in the chapter before this. Well Inuyasha the manga dont' belong to me. This story doesn't belong to me neither. It belongs to my best friend, also known as the girl who loves Naraku and Kenshin. :)

Title

Chapter 2:

The Beginning of Junior Year

Inuyasha was feeling pretty good about himself.

Last year, he had managed to become the leader of the most popular group in school. Miroku, Kagura, Sango, Koga, Ayame and him.

He had also managed to catch the eye of the new student, Kikyou, who looked a lot like Kagome and soon, they had begun dating.

He never thought about the fact that the whole time he was the leader of the group, Kagome wasn't there.

He assumed she had foudn her own friends.

Inuyasha walked confidently down the hallway.

All the girls follwed his steps.

He smirked.

They weren't good enough for him. After all, he could have anything he wanted. His father had taught him that.

He stopped at his locker and waited for the rest of his friends to arrive. Late as usual.

He sniffed the air and smelled someone familiar approaching, though he couldn't place who it was.

Then, the person rounded to corner and he saw Kagome.

As usual she was wering jeans and a t-shirt. She was walking with her head down and almost ran into him.

She looked up before she did though, and smiled.

"Hi, Inuyasha. Um, my mom told me to remind your mom that it's her turn to choose a restaurant." She said quietly.

Inuyasha looked at her in bewilderment.

"It's Friday, remember? Dinner?" She said.

Inuyasha suppressed a groan. Every other Friday, the two families had dinner together, either at a restaurant or at Kagome's house or Inuyasha's.

He had to be there, as his mother had reminded him often, because that's what close friends do.

He had told her more than once that he and Kagome weren't close anymore. She made him come anyway.

"Oh yeah. I forgot." He said as his ears twitched impatiently.

He was only thinking of what would happen if his friends came and saw him talking to her.

"I'll see you later I guess.So..." he never finished his sentence as his friends came around the corner.

He roughly pushed her away and knocked her against the wall. Rubbing her arm, she walked away silently, not saying a word.

"Inuyasha, why were you talking to her? I could've sworn you said that you were going to see her later. What was that about?" Asked Koga.

Kagome stood up in a nearby doorway, listening intently.

"Uh, nothing. It's Friday, remember?" Said Inuyasha quickly.

"Oh yeah, don't you have to go to dinner with her family and yours today?" Remarked Miroku.

"I think your family feels sorry for her. I mean, you do pay for their dinner and they eat at your house all the time, right? Like everyone else of her status, her family probaly doesn't get enough to eat. Your mother must feel really bad for them." Said Kikyou unconcernedly.

"Yeah, she, uh, she wanted to know if there was something she could do to repay us." Lied Inuyasha uncomfortably.

"And you said...?" Replied Kikyou.

"I, uh, said no." Mumbled Inuyasha.

Kikyou smiled triumphantly. "Good. You put her in her place." She said.

The bell rang and the group meandered toward their first period class.

Inuyasha lingered toward the back and hping to God that Kagome hadn't heard.

Unfortunatly, God may not have heard in time, since Inuyasha smelled Kagome's scent nearby.

He turned and saw her walking behind him.

She forced a smile, he could see that, and said "Hey. We're going to be late."

She walked around him and he smelled salt and he knew however, that however much she hid it, Kagome had heard it.

And the thing that hurt the most, was that she didn't even yell at him or slap him or anything.

She had only forced a smile and walked away, head bent down as usual.

A/N: Man, I don't like this kid.
