Improbable, not Impossible
Chap.2: Welcome to My Life
"Kagome, get down here, you're going to be late!" As soon as these words were spoken, Kagome's eyes flew open. The voice she had heard was the voice of a thousand angels, any voice that wasn't her step dad's in the morning was. His calling would have gone more like "Kagome, get your goddamn ass out of bed this second, and if you dare make me come up there, your going to regret it later!" Or that's probably what he'd say if he was in a good mood.
Kagome flew out of bed and hit the shower, feeling lighter and giddier than she had in weeks. It was as if she were a totally different person from the one that had suffered at the hands of her step dad just yesterday. She was back to her old self, the one who was the jewel of her family, the sunshine in their lives. She was back to being their little girl.
"Souta, you better not have used all the milk!" Kagome called to the kitchen as she remembered that they were running low on it.
"If you snooze, you lose, sis!" A very satisfied little brother called back.
Kagome picked up the pace, however she didn't need to. Her little brother and her bickered regularly, but they loved each other with all their hearts. They really only had each other after, two years ago, there mother had gotten that new job.
With a great shout of "Mom," Kagome launched herself into her mother's open arms and then proceeded to sit down and fight with Souta about the usage of milk.
"So, mom, how's the job coming?" questioned Kagome.
"Well, it's tiring, but being a fashion designer has its perks. The show in New York was certainly fun, I must take you guys to America someday! Though I still can't believe that kimonos and jean styles would end up being so popular…" Mrs. Higurashi then proceeded to trail off while thinking.
"Oh, I've got to go! I'm going to be late! Bye mom, bye Souta!" Kagome hastily grabbed her knapsack and ran down the Higurashi Shrine steps, where she proceeded to grab her bike and pedal to school.
Kagome Higurashi reached school and then went and sat underneath a tree to wait patiently for the bell to ring. She was not at all planning to enjoy the school day, that was kind of hard to do with no friends. Kagome had enrolled in this school because her stepdad was actually quite rich, though to everyone in the household but Kagome's mom he made it quite clear that he did not want to spend a penny on his kids. He only paid for Kagome's tuition into the richest high school around to impress Kag's mom.
And it was not like Kagome actually wanted to go there either. Everyone at (AN: Somebody give me a name of a high school!) High was either stuck-up, or was ignorant and knew nothing of poverty. It wasn't exactly the most welcoming place on the planet.
Kagome watched a limo pull up in the parking lot, taking up quite a bit of room. She watched as four laughing (or perhaps sneering) students got out. They were Sesshomaru, Kouga, Miroku, and InuYasha, the most influential people at InsertNameHere High (AN: I don't think I'm copying the Meteor Garden stories, but if I am I am very sorry and you should probably go read those instead). She sighed, those people scared her for some reason, and they also annoyed her.
The bell finally rang, and Kagome gathered up her stuff and walked towards the school thinking "this is going to be a long day…."
Well, review pretty please! And thank you LesMiserables, Blacknbloodytears, and freekgirl, you guys rule!
