Okay, um well…some of you don't seem to understand that this is after the shikon jewel is completed! That was my mistake! I'm so SORRY! runs away sobbing

Well, some of you have complained that it really isn't a cliffy, if you know who it's going to be…so I have altered it a little! Muhahahaha! As my friend says…I feel devious. But don't really, in the end it will be a Kagome/ Kurama pairing.

Chapter Two

Recap: I reached in and grabbed the first one I touched.

Rath Knight

'Oh well, at least it's not new kid over there.' Rath was a nice (hot) guy. He moved in about a month ago. He had short black hair with a white streak.

"Now, get with your partners." Announced the teacher.

"Introduce yourselves and read over the packet."

"Hi, my name is Rath Knight." He stuck out his hand to shake. I politely grabbed it (A/n AAHHH! The impure thoughts…seeping into…my…mind! ) and shook it

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Knight-san. My name is Kagome."

"If we are to be 'married' you will have to call me Rath."

"Only if you call me Kagome."

"Deal." He grinned.

"Okay, well…let's read the packet."

"Okay."

Assignment One: Get key. Learn more about each other and bond.

Assignment Two: Talk about what you will do as jobs and work out your taxes.

Assignment Three: At the end of each week, write about your problems with your spouse or what you will work on.

Bonus: Sleep together in one bed. (A/n Ack! The IMPURE THOUGHTS!) Write a response about your experience.

Bonus: Temporarily foster a child. If you do this, one of the spouses are excused from finding work. At the end, write a response of your experience. Talk about your problems, what you did together, etc.

Kagome blushed while reading some of the assignments…or rather the "bonus."And it wasn't to go unnoticed by a certain boy who is sitting right next to her. (Rath hint hint Rath.)

"You look cute when you blush." Kagome blushed an even darker shade of red. The other girls flashed Kagome a dirty look.

"Um, if you don't mind…I'd like to foster a child."

"So you like kids?"

"Yes, yes I do." Smiled Kagome. She thought about the times she had with Shippo. Those were the best days of her life. She loved Shippo like her own child. She suddenly grew sad. She longed to see Shippo again.

"Do you want to get a part-time job?" asked Rath, bringing her back from her thoughts.

"Um, yeah! I can get a job as store clerk."

"Okay. Um, well…I already have a job."

"Really? What do you do?"

"Well, I'm a part-time police officer."

"Really? Are you allowed to? I mean, you're kinda young."

"Yeah, I have some really good connections."

"Apparently!"

"Well, I'll work full-time now."

"Okay! So we have our jobs…now all we have to do is manage our money."

"Okay, um…just warning you…I'm not exactly Einstein when it comes to math."

"That's okay! My math skills are decent enough to handle this one."

"All right!"

While Kagome and Rath worked together…Kurama looked at his 'wife'. She wouldn't stop talking! My GOD! Seriously…doesn't she have to breath? It was all 'lalallalalalalalalalalla' NO GAPS! He couldn't understand a word she was saying. God forbid that he share one bed with this girl. Thank the Lord, he would be working almost nine hours a day.

"Well, I could so totally work as a fashion designer. My daddy is like really rich. So I can totally do whatever I want." This is just two sentences taken from her gazillion pages of speech. Honestly. Kurama put his hand to his head. He could feel a migraine coming.

"In a week, you will all go to the apartment. You will not have school for the next month, so enjoy. Class dismissed." Exclaimed the teacher.

Okay, I know…it's not really all that great right now…but it will get better! I PROMISE! Please continue reading! Oh, and review too. Remember, I will take flames! FLAME ON! (I haven't even seen that movie yet.)

Um…this will be a Kagome/ Kurama pairing. The whole Rath thing, is just temporary because everyone was all, 'well, it's not a cliffy if you know what's going to happen.' Yes, you'll see my ingenious plan in the next chappie.

"Please…press me!" (You heard the button! PRESS AWAY!)
