Chapter 3: Conflicts with Kikyou
Kagome sat at a table with two girls and smiled at them, she was getting used to the Host Club life style and found this a not so bad way to pay off a debt.
"I heard your family lives on a shrine Higurashi-sama. How do you get to school?" asked Yuka.
"I bike to school." Said Kagome.
"You mean you don't have a car?" Ayumi asked shocked.
Kagome sweat dropped and shook her head slowly. "No, cant afford one."
"That's terrible…what about servants who does all the work in your house?" asked Yuka.
"I do, I love to cook so it isn't too bad just the cleaning stuff is hard on the huge shrine." Said Kagome giving Yuka a warm smile that made the girl's heat skip a beat. At the other side of the room Inuyasha spied on Kagome and her group over the side of the couch while Kikyou sat next to him angrily trying to get his attention.
"Takahashi-san. What about that boy has you so preoccupied?" asked Kikyou tugging on the sleeve of Inuyasha's uniform. Inuyasha blinked as if out of a trance and turned to sit normal on the couch.
"Oh I am sorry Neguro-san but it's only been a week for Kagome and I was worried he was doing so well. That's all." Inuyasha reassured smoothly and gave Kikyou a sexy smile. Kikyou frowned slightly and glanced over the back of the couch at Kagome who laughed at a joke Ayumi made. Kikyou's eyes narrowed and she turned to Inuyasha.
"That boy is nothing but a commoner and tarnishes the Host Club's reputation. How about you sell his debt to me, I can put him to work at my mansion." Said Kikyou. Inuyasha blinked and stared at Kikyou seriously and then grinned.
"That isn't necessary Kagome is doing fine. She's already had 30 requests, she'll…be done with her debt to us soon." Inuyasha said his eyes going unfocused as he trailed off. Kikyou saw this and her eyes narrowed.
'I will have to do something about that street rat…Inuyasha is mine and a scrawny brat like him isn't going to steal him from me' Kikyou thought glaring over at Kagome.
A week later Kagome walked along the outsides walkways of the school and looked around earnestly. She had had a strange bad luck streak over the last week. She got cut by a knife that was in her textbook, a tack was put in her uniform blazer and she was pricked by it, she's tripped over stray feet in desk aisles and now her stuff was missing. Kagome turned a corner and gasped, there was all her stuff floating in the mud. There was no way this was a coincidence… Kagome sighed and removed her shoes, socks and rolled up her pant legs.
Kagome walked through the mud and three her stuff on the concrete. She was currently looking for her wallet when she heard a deep gruff voice behind her. "Hey, taking a mud bath?" Kagome turned around to see Inuyasha staring down at her with an expressionless face.
Kagome heaved a tired sigh. "No, Im looking for my wallet…"
"Well, youre doing it all wrong…" Inuyasha undid his shirt , having not been wearing the blazer or tie, and slipped it off his broad shoulders and down his powerful arms. Kagome looked over and blushed seeing the bare-chested guy just jump into the mud and had practically all his arms in the mud looking for her wallet. "You gotta dive in!" Inuyasha laughed then got a wicked look. "There's a ten percent finders right?" Inuyasha grinned and doubled his search, he may be rich but he wasn't flippant with money or acts of service. Kagome smiled at this playful side to the Host Club King and began to search harder.
"I found it!" Kagome cheered holding it up.
"Dang! No finders fee then. Hey! If I can find ten of your things can I have one?" Inuyasha began to search through the mud again and Kagome glared.
"Hey! I never agreed to that!" Kagome laughed and began to throw her stuff out of the mud again.
Kagome blinked and stared down at her tea, wishing she was anywhere else but here. She sat in the Host Club lounge at a table across from Kikyou. Kikyou Neguro had requested her company and now here they sat not talking, Kagome wondered what the woman wanted, not really like her too much but knew Kikyou probably expected her to flirt so just when Kagome was about to try the looking up form below technique Kikyou spoke.
"Stay away from Inuyasha-sama. You aren't good enough for him." Said Kikyou seriously. Kagome gasped and remained quiet. "You are nothing but a commoner and a man like Inuyasha needs class and someone from a rich family to marry and he will never be interested in a scrawny ugly BOY like you." Kikyou said harshly. Kagome glared at Kikyou but decided she shouldn't yell at her.
"Sounds to me like you're jealous." Kagome said crisply.
Kikyou gasped and stood from the table and pointed at Kagome. "Kagome just suggested something totally crass and vulgar! I am deeply offended and I think he should be kicked out--." Kikyou was cut off by Miroku who glared down at Kikyou.
"Actually, Kikyou your lies about a member of our club and the harassment of the very same member have been quite uncalled for which means the King shall decide your punishment…" Miroku looked at Inuyasha who had a dark look on his face as he sat in an armchair near by.
"I say we kick the stuck up bitch out." Inuyasha said crudely for someone who was suppose to be all class. "Kikyou Neguro, you are banned from ever requesting time from a Host Club member, get out." Kikyou was about to protest but Bankotsu and Kouga picked her up by her upper arms and carried the screaming woman out.
Kagome watched all this happen in a daze. She looked at Inuyasha who was now looking at her with a smirk. "Wh-what's that look for?" asked Kagome nervously.
"For all this trouble, you need to be punished. Your total debt has been changed to 1000 requests." Said Inuyasha. Kagome's eyes widened.
"You cant do that! I didn't do anything!" Kagome yelled.
"Putting your self in a position that could have caused the Host Club to get a bad reputation is pretty bad, by not telling us yourself about the problems you were having with bullying you made it necessary to punish you." Inuyasha said nonchalantly. Kagome groaned in frustration and had a pouting look. Inuyasha stared at her and smirked. "How the hell can you look so damn cute?"
Kagome looked at him like he was crazy and blushed. Suddenly Inuyasha was in front of her and had her in a bear hug. "Hey! What are you doing!"
"That face of yours! No wonder the ladies fawn over you!" Inuyasha laughed. Kagome growled in irritation and tried to squirm out of the tall boy's arms. Kagome spotted Sesshoumaru and waved at him.
"Sesshoumaru! Help!" Sesshoumaru looked at her with the emotionless face that was his trade mark and suddenly Kagome was hefted out of Inuyasha's arms and over Sesshoumaru's shoulder. Inuyasha stood there in front of Sesshoumaru with his arms up like he didn't know how Kagome left them. Inuyasha glared at Sesshoumaru angrily.
"Hey, give him back!" Inuyasha yelled. "Why the hell did you do that anyway!" demanded Inuyasha suspicious of Sesshoumaru's intentions.
"He said he needed help." Sesshoumaru said simply, with a stunned Kagome still over his shoulder. Inuyasha began to rant and rave for Sesshoumaru to give Kagome back but Kagome's plee to get down won out and the tall Senior set her on her feet. Kagome blushed and was going to move away from the arguing brothers when she noticed her pocket was lighter than it should be.
Inuyasha noticed something on the ground and picked it up. It was a wallet, Inuyasha opened it and blinked in surprise. Noticing Inuyasha's dark aura the room went silent, seeing as it was only the club because the club hours were almost up and the girls left. Inuyasha spoke in an emotionless voice. "Kagome…?"
"Yes?" Kagome said looking around.
"You're a girl…?"
"Yes…"
