An Unwanted Prize
Chapter Three
Kagome opened the letter and began to read:
Kagome,
So, we're science partners are we? Fine with me. Well
as you know, Kikyo and I broke up. So, I would be honored
if you would go with me to...
"So, you're just now reading that letter. Remind me never to trust that wench again."
Kagome nearly jumped out of her skin. She looked up from the letter and her chocolate brown eyes locked with golden ones. Kagome's heart skipped a beat when she realized who it was.
"Excuse me, InuYasha, her name isn't wench, it's Sango, and the only reason I'm reading it now is because I forgot about it. Wouldn't you if you had thrown it in the back of your locker?"
InuYasha frowned, 'She threw it in the back of her locker?'
Kagome folded the letter back up and placed it on top of her supplies for her science class. She sighed heavily, realizing that today would be the first day working with science partners.
'Great,' she thought, 'Will this day get any worse?'
"Hello?!"
Kagome snapped her attention back to the silver-haired boy in front of her, "Huh?"
"Did you finish reading it?" InuYasha answered in an annoyed tone, turning to Sango's locker and opening it.
"Uh no..." Kagome said quickly, "What are you doing?"
"This is my locker." InuYasha said, pulling the lock open and reaching into HIS locker.
Kagome's face drained of color. 'Oh no,' her mind screamed, 'this isn't happening!'
InuYasha noticed Kagome's reaction and figured she was probably expecting an explanation, "My locker was next to Kikyo's and after our breakup, she demanded I be moved, so... here I am."
Kagome slammed her locker shut just as the bell rang, "Fine. Just don't expect anything from me!" She said, turning on her heel and heading toward her sixth period class.
InuYasha smirked, "Hard to get? Hm, I'm up for the challenge."
~+~+~+~
"InuYasha! DON'T DO THA..."
A loud boom erupted from the room and everyone turned to the source of it. There stood Kagome, covered in what was supposed to be their crystal mixture. She flapped her arms around, trying to shake off some of the smelly liquid that was oozing all over her.
"InuYasha" she growled, giving him a death glare.
"What?!" he snapped back, "I lit the bunsun burner like you said!"
Kagome grabbed the beaker off from the counter and yelled, "THIS IS NOT A BUNSUN BURNER! You DO NOT light this!"
"Gee, well maybe if you'd explain what the hell things were, I wouldn't make mistakes!"
"Well maybe if you payed ATTENTION, instead of being so wrapped up being Mr. I'm-So-Popular, you wouldn..."
"Both of you!" Mr Yokio yelled, grabbing both of them by their upper arms and quickly pulling them to the door, "To the office! Pronto!"
Mr. Yokio pushed them out the door and shoved their belongings in their faces, before slamming the door, the whole time mumbling something about being better off taking the job at the supermarket.
Kagome sighed heavily and turned and walked toward her locker. InuYasha stared after her for a while before heading in the opposite direction.
"Stupid InuYasha." Kagome chanted to herself, opening her locker, grabbing her gym clothes, and heading to the bathroom to change, "Stupid science partner, stupid locker changes, stupid letters."
'Stupid letters.'
Kagome looked down at the supplies in her hands, the letter still sitting neatly on top. She rushed into the bathroom and changed quickly, placing her ruined clothes into the plastic bag. Bending down to grab her supplies, she noticed it.
The letter.
It was just there. Tempting her. Haunting her. She could've swore she heard it talk.
'Read me.'
Kagome shook her head, trying to shake out any bit of insanity that threatened to make her lose her mind.
'Read me.'
She stared down at it. The letter. It was just...there. Reaching down to pick it up, Kagome felt a tinge of anticipation. She opened it and finished reading:
Kagome,
So, we're science partners are we? Fine with me. Well
as you know, Kikyo and I broke up. So, I would be honored
if you would go with me to dinner sometime, and maybe catch a
movie too. Anything, it's up to you.
InuYasha
'He wants to go out...with me?' Kagome thought.
She heard someone coming in and she quickly crumpled up the letter just in time to find Kikyo walking into the bathroom. Kagome put on a fake smile and threw the crumpled paper into the garbage and headed out the door in a hurry.
To bad her aim sucked.
Kikyo quickly checked her appearance over and was about to rush out the door when she noticed the small ball of paper on the floor and eyed it suspiciously. Then ignored it and walked out of the bathroom.
~+~+~+~
"So, Kagome," Sango said, flopping over onto her back and making herself comfortable on Kagome's bed, "What did the letter say?"
Kagome twirled around on her chair to face Sango, "Nothing," she lied, "It didn't say anything."
"Oh, is that true?" Sango said, smiling at Kagome, "Then why are you blushing?"
Kagome only smiled and turned around, attempting to turn her attention back to her homework, but failing.
'I wasn't blushing ...because of InuYasha.'
Just then the phone rang. Kagome reached across her desk and picked it up, expecting to be stuck in a stupid gossip conversation. But got the shock of her life.
"Hello?" she said into the reciever.
"Hey!" a male voice replied. A FAMILIAR male voice replied.
Kagome's expression quickly changed from impassive bored to open-mouthed, her eyes wide as saucers.
"H-how do you get my number?"
Sango listened to Kagome and looked up, brows furrowed, "Who is it?" she whispered.
Kagome ignored her and listened to the man on the other end of the phone. "Miroku gave me your number during fifth period. Don't ask me how he got it."
Kagome's eyes narrowed and she felt a tinge of anger. "Oh really, Miroku gave it to you. Did he?" Kagome said into the phone, turning around and staring directly at Sango.
Sango put on a fake smile and waved at Kagome.
"Sango!" Kagome yelled, "Excuse me a moment." She set the reciever down on her desk and made a leap for Sango, missing her by mere inches, and grabbing a pillow from her bed.
InuYasha listened to Kagome and Sango's little pillow fight go on for what seemed like hours and when Kagome finally picked up the phone, she was out of breath.
"Hello?" Kagome huffed.
"Uh, yeah, so I called to see if you'd take me up on the offer."
Kagome blushed again, "Uhm, I think I'll pass. I don't really know you and I've seen what you've done to your past girlfriends. I'd prefer not to become an addition to the collection." She lied. She knew InuYasha had only had one girlfriend for as long as she had known him and that was Kikyo.
"Well, maybe we could get to know eachother sometime?" InuYasha asked hopefully.
Kagome sighed, "Uh...yeah, sure!" she said reluctantly.
"Ok, great. See ya in school! Bye."
"Bye." she said, hanging up the reciever.
"So?"
Kagome turned around and looked at Sango, "We're going to," she paused, putting her hands up to quote her next words with her fingers, "get to know eachother."
~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~+~
Kagome rested her head on the palm of her hand and tapped her pencil on the desk with the other. History had to be the worst subject to have to sit through. 'How is knowing about dead presidents going to help me succeed?' Kagome often wondered.
"Excuse me students of Tokyo High!" The principal's voice boomed over the intercom, interrupting the teacher's lecture. "I would like to announce the winners of yesterday's career dress up day, but first, I have a few announcements to make."
Kagome sighed and glanced over at Sango, who rolled her eyes and averted her gaze to Miroku, who smiled widely when he realized where his hand was. Kagome shook her head and looked to her left, over at InuYasha, who was busy aiming spitballs at the kid two seats in front of him. Kagome rolled her eyes and put her head down on the desk.
"...for a PTA meeting after school. And now, I will announce the winners from yesterday. They are the..." The principal paused, building up anticipation, "the seniors!"
The entire upper level burst into cheers and the rest of the principal's announcement was drowned out by the teens.
Kagome reached over and gave Sango and Miroku high fives, while other students danced around and cheered.
"Quiet down!" The history teacher yelled, causing everyone in the room to stop dead in their tracks and quickly rush back to their seats.
"Students of the National Honor Society," the principal's voice was heard again, "please meet in the auditorium! Miroku Kazaana, Naraku Shapeshifter, Eri Ellans, Koga Wolf, Kikyo Shinidama Chuu, Kagome Higurashi, Sango Tijiya, and InuYasha...I'm sorry, I can't pronounce this last name. These students please report to the auditorium at this ti....."
The rest of the speech was cut short as the bell rang and students began to pack up and head to their next class. Kagome walked over to Sango and Miroku, waiting for them to finish up their little argument so they could get to the auditorium on time.
"Excuse me you two," Kagome interrupted, both turning to face her, "We're going to be late if you don't get a move on!"
Sango and Miroku looked back at each other then picked up their bags, "We're ready."
"'Bout time." Kagome muttered under her breath.
The threesome made their way through the teen filled hall, squishing in between students who were too busy talking about their recent victory over the rest of the school, to even realize they only had a few minutes left to get to class.
"It's like a jungle out there!" Miroku breathed, finally bursting through the auditorium doors.
"Well," Sango said, walking in after him, alongside Kagome, "It matches today's theme. Jungle Fever."
Kagome looked around the auditorium, "Not many students made honors I see. I guess..."
"Well, well, well. It seems my buddy Miroku made honors. What'd you do? Bribe the teachers?"
The trio turned around and found themselves in the presence of the one, the only...
"InuYasha?!" Kagome asked, her voice filled with pure shock. "YOU made honors?"
"Of course I did! What makes you think I wouldn't?"
Kagome laughed, "Well I do remember a certain person who didn't know the difference between a beaker and a Bunsen Burner."
"Yeah, one little accident isn't gonna cost me my grade!"
Kagome narrowed her eyes, ready to take him on. "What about that time in math class? Tell me again how the square root of 100 is 73?"
"So I made two mistakes!"
Sango and Miroku stood of to the side, watching to two argue in utter disbelief. Since when did Kagome ever talk to popular people? Since when did they ever talk to her? They both smiled from ear to ear and high-fived, their plan was working.
Sango smiled and looked over to her right and gasped. She nudged Miroku and he followed her gaze. "Oh...My....God."
Kagome and InuYasha stopped their bickering and followed their stare.
"K-Kikyo?" InuYasha asked, staring at the girl. Kikyo stood wearing low- rider shorts and a tiger print t-shirt that read 'Grrr' in orange letters. Her hair was up in two high ponytails and she still wore her usual spiked choker and bracelettes.
Kikyo looked over at InuYasha, vindictiveness showing brightly in her features. InuYasha shivered and looked away, "She seems a little disturbed. Yet still manages to look like a slut."
"InuYasha! Don't talk about her like that!" Sango yelled.
"Yeah InuYasha! It's not nice!" Kagome agreed.
"I agree InuYasha, it's not nice to speak of a lady like that."
InuYasha growled at Miroku, "Why, Miroku, is it because you enjoy looking at women who are barely clothed? I'm sure that's the reason, you perverted...."
"Ahem," Miroku interrupted, "InuYasha, are those boxers you're wearing?"
Kagome and Sango glared at InuYasha. It was the first time they realized what he was wearing, leopard print boxers with a matching t-shirt.
"It was the only animal print piece of clothing I could find!" InuYasha argued in defense.
"Yes," Miroku smiled, "I'm sure it was."
The two girls giggled silently, while InuYasha made to tackle Miroku, but as if right on cue, a woman's voice was heard. "If you could please take your seats we can begin."
~+~+~+~+~
Kagome and Sango dropped their trays on the table and flopped down into the plastic chairs, exhausted.
"Who knew sitting through such a boring speech could take so much outta ya?" Sango asked, placing her head on the palm of her hand.
Kagome shrugged and looked over at InuYasha. Ever since the previous night, since their little telephone conversation, Kagome's curiosity had grown. Maybe it was just hormones, or a petti desire. Or maybe her horizons had grown. Maybe InuYasha's feelings were mutual after all.
Kagome shook her head, trying to shake away the little voice inside her head that screamed 'Give him a chance! You know you want to!'
Sango looked over at Kagome, "Something wrong?"
Kagome blushed and shook her head. "Sango, can I ask you a question?"
Sango nodded and began poking her food with a fork."Ask away."
"Do you like Miroku?"
"WHAT!?" Sango yelled, causing people to turn and stare. Sango blushed a deep shade of red and smiled, trying not to look so suspicious, "Of course not Kagome, what makes you think that?"
Kagome shook her head and looked down at her food.
"Is something wrong Kagome?"
Kagome shook her head and stuck her fork into the weird food combination sitting on her tray, "What is this stuff?"
Sango looked down at her tray and stuck her fork into a peice of meat and examined it, "Is this a giblet?!"
A moment of silence transpired between the two before they both got disgusted looks on their faces, "EW!"
"Hey you guys."
Kagome and Sango turned their attention to the two boys that were currently making themselves at home at their lunch table.
"Excuse me," Sango growled, glaring at Miroku in particular, "Who said you could sit here?"
"Yeah," Kagome cut in, her attention directed toward InuYasha, "Won't being seen with us, like, ruin your image or something?"
InuYasha and Miroku just shook their heads and Miroku took a bite of the mystery meat, causing Kagome and Sango to flinch, and avert their eyes elsewhere.
Kagome clamped a hand over her mouth, "You're actually eating that?" she asked through her fingers.
"'Course, why not?" Miroku said, taking yet another bite.
InuYasha glared at him, "Remind me again why I hang out with you."
Miroku looked up at InuYasha and just stared for a moment before InuYasha got the hint, "Oh, that's why."
Sango and Kagome exchanged glances and shook their heads.
Some boys are just plain weird.
