Chapter 3- I'll tell you later
"Thanks for dropping me off, Hojo," Kagome said politely.
"No problem," Hojo smiled and drove off into the distance.
Kagome entered her house and saw her grandfather sitting at the table writing fortunes for a local restaurant. Kagome's grandfather was one of the most renowned fortune writers in the city. Everyone knew who he was.
"Where's mom and Souta?"
"They went to the grocery store to buy some materials for Souta's project. So what happened at school today?" Kagome's grandfather asked, looking up from his work.
"Oh, well, it was an interesting day, I guess. Oh yeah, before I forget, Sango and Hojo both had stuff to do at lunch so I wrote some fortunes." Kagome opened a blue notebook and handed it to her grandfather.
Kagome's grandfather accepted the notebook and sat on the ground reading through Kagome's words. "So if Sango and Hojo were busy, did you eat by yourself?"
"Uh...yeah."
"But you have tons of friends," grandpa insisted.
Kagome seriously did NOT want to discuss how amazingly boring her social life was so she shrugged carelessly, "I wanted to work on some fortunes so you could read them. I got a lot of ideas so I wanted to write them down."
"These are really good, I think I'll use them. They are just like you."
"Cool!"
'Oh yeah, I almost forgot about Mr. Cool.' Kagome furrowed her brows, while thinking.
"What's wrong Kagome?"
"Well...uh...there's this really cool guy at our school named Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, very well named. Anyways, what's he like?"
"Well, um...uh...he's the guy every girl would wants to have, good-looking, with these amazing amber eyes, and silver hair. And he only wears red and black. And when he walks, everyone makes a big deal to get out of his way and watch him."
Grandpa laughed, "But what is he LIKE? In his heart?"
"Oh, I don't know. I've never actually talked to him, except for today."
"But you said he was cool," grandpa reminded her, "What makes him cool?"
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP...was the only thing that registered in Kagome's mind, she was totally stumped. "The way he looks is cool. And...the way he walks. And...the fact that everyone knows him. That's cool."
"But that's something you SEE. What's on the inside of this Inuyasha boy?"
Grandpa was one of those people who believed that appearances didn't matter, and that you have to look on the inside to find true beauty. Kagome walked upstairs to her room, still pondering about Inuyasha's offer. 'Why is he suddenly so nice to me?'
'Should I accept his offer? I definitely think he's up to something, no matter how sincere he may be. But what could he be up to? His simple mind can't come up with something to trick me. I think I'll play along, what's the harm if the result is me getting a date with Adam.' Kagome thought everything through and finally came to a decision. Yes, she was going to accept his offer.
----------------------
Kagome sat in the lunchroom with Sango and Hojo. She and Sango were trying to convince Hojo to tell them who had taken his homework.
"Come on, Hojo. This can't go on forever! You have to tell us who's stealing your homework so we can stop them," Sango was fuming.
"Yeah Hojo. You have to tell us!"
Hojo just shook his head furiously, "I really don't mind that much, I could just do it again." Hojo looked over towards Inuyasha's table. Their group was messing around, throwing food at each other. Miroku suddenly stopped and got up. "I gotta go to the library guys, bye." Hojo walked out of the room in a rush.
"He's just taking refuge there. He can't run forever," Kagome sighed. Miroku sat down and scooted close to Sango. His arm reached out and landed on her back. Unfortunately, his hand seemed to slide down her back, closer to her butt. A lazy smile stretched across his face.
"Eeek! What are you doing!" Sango waved her hands wildly, slapped Miroku, and moved further down the table, her face was a rosy red.
"But Sango! I was just massaging your back!" Miroku cried.
"Yeah right," Kagome laughed and left the table to throw away the remainder of her lunch.
"I'll come with you," Sango squeaked and grabbed her still untouched lunch. She quickly ran to catch up to Kagome. "Don't leave with that pervert!" Sango whispered.
"My beautiful, flattering butterfly has once again flown away," Miroku sighed and headed back to his own table.
-----------------
Kagome asked for a break from volunteering at the hospital, and was doing a research on ancient sword history. Inuyasha crept silently into the library and saw a black haired girl sitting at one of the tables surrounded by mountains of books. He crept up and covered her eyes and whispered, "Guess who?"
Kagome rolled her eyes and stiffly, but sarcastically said, "Let me it be...INUYASHA?" Then she made a feeble attempt to peel his hands off her eyes and face.
Inuyasha pulled up a chair next to her.
"What are you researching?" he asked.
"History of Ancient Swords, why?"
Inuyasha peered over at her book. It was flipped on a page featuring two twin swords. Labeled underneath read: Tetsusaiga and the Tensaiga. Inuyasha gasped and snatched the book away, almost ripping the page out and started reading it.
Kagome stared and said, "When did you start reading?"
"Long before you did, and for your information this information is incorrect!"
"How would you know," Kagome asked, cocking her eyebrow.
"Well I know somebody who has the sword. It was forged 500 years ago by his I-don't–know-how-long- ago grandfather. So I know about it."
"Wow, can you come over one day and tell me about it. I need a good report to get an A in AP history."
"How about today, or are you busy at home?"
"No, lets go."
"Ok"
The two left the library and walked towards his car.
After viewing his seatbelt less Porche, Kagome nervously said, "Uh, I think I'm going to walk home."
"What are you afraid of modern day technology now? Oh yeah, have you ever thought about my offer to get you and Abe together?"
"First I'm not afraid of modern day technology and second I'll let you know when I've decided, which will be before the dance."
"First of all you ARE afraid of modern day technology and second, when will that be, please don't tell me it's the day before the dance."
"Nah, the dance is 2 weeks from now and I'll tell you very soon. And besides, I'm considered of my own safety. Unlike you I know that inertia will throw me out the window if we're in an accident or when you're driving too fast or when you suddenly stop the car."
In the end Inuyasha had somehow coaxed Kagome to get into the red hot Porche. By the time they reached the shrine, Kagome was clutching on to the side of the car, her face turning pale green.
"Remind me never to ride in your car again!" Kagome said weakly.
Inuyasha smirked and opened the door to her house and walked in only to stare blankly at the aged man before him.

Woot! Another chapter done!
