"He just transferred; I saw him in the office this morning." said Kagome in a thoughtful voice. "His aura is off…"

"Of course it is, he's a nasty wolf youkai. You can smell his stench from a mile away."

"That's not what I meant."

"Feh, who cares, Tuesday suck."

"It's only Tuesday, UGH!" stated Sango, dropping her head to the table. "We still have three days of school until the weekend…!"

Chapter 10

Inuyasha fell onto his bed exhausted. Training with Kaede normally went quickly but it seemed as though this day never ended. It was still Tuesday.

'I never want to move again,' he thought lying there. Unfortunately a growl from his stomach didn't agree. Inuyasha got up and walked to the kitchen.

His brother was already in there. Inuyasha had lived with his brother ever since the death of his mother and their father. Once Sesshomaru had finished school he had gotten a job and supported his little brother. The two shared the simple, one story house with their cousin Hojo. He was related through Inuyasha's mother's family. Hojo was a freshman in the college down the street and was living with them to avoid paying room and board at school. The three were an odd trio, with a full demon, a half demon, and a human living under the same roof. They got along well enough to survive with only a few disagreements, though Inuyasha found both of them rather annoying sometimes.

"Long day?" Sesshomaru asked as Inuyasha walked into the room. Inuyasha ignored him and looked in the fridge. Sesshomaru didn't seem fazed by his brother's rudeness; in fact he never seemed fazed about anything. That was probably why Inuyasha always tried to irritate him; it was such a rare occurrence to see Sesshomaru annoyed. Inuyasha got out the instant ramen and went to heat it up in the microwave. "Someone called for you right before you came in." The demon told his younger brother.

"Who," Inuyasha said forgetting that he was ignoring the youkai.

"Dunno," Sesshomaru shrugged, "Hojo answered it." He got up from the table and put his empty dish in the sink and left the room.

"Feh," Inuyasha said to his brother's retreating form. He pulled out his ramen and sat at the table as Hojo walked in.

"Someone called for you a bit ago," he said as he went to get a soda.

"Yea, I know. Still haven't heard who it was though." Inuyasha said.

"She said her name was Kagome. She sounded cool you should have her over sometime." Hojo said getting slightly off topic.

"Did she say anything besides her name?" the hanyou asked. He had just seen Kagome at Kaede's, why would she be calling?

"Oh yeah, something about picking her up tomorrow morning, her mom's using her car or something because the other one is in the shop." Hojo finally got out.

"Thanks," Inuyasha said. "I have to pry info out of these people," he mumbled about his family members as he finished his food and went back to bed.

………………………………………………….

The next day was uneventful. The only thing that happened was Miroku getting slapped in the face a few times by Sango, and the constant appearance of the wolf youkai from the day before.

He seemed to catch up to Kagome in between every class and stare at her as he passed like he was trying to intimidate her.

"What is his problem!?" Kagome had exclaimed when it had happened the fifth time. If even Kagome was getting annoyed, it was a miracle Inuyasha hadn't started a fight with the wolf yet.

The entire week went this way until it was finally Friday. The four friends were all eating at WacDonald's. They were having a great time. The long, painful week having finally ended, the four friends felt that they could relax for the first time in what felt like forever.

"This rocks, two days without school, hardly any homework to do, and no random appearance of that disgusting bastard," Inuyasha said taking a drink of his soda. No one needed to ask who the "bastard" was.

"You want to go see a movie tonight?" Kagome asked her friends after a few minutes of silence.

"Yea! We haven't done that in a while!" replied Sango

"There's a really good movie out in the X theater downtown…" Miroku's face ended up in his burger.

"Hentai," Sango said glaring as Miroku rubbed the back of his head where her hand had hit him.

"It was just a suggestion," he said grimacing lightly.

Kagome laughed, "I wasn't exactly thinking of that Miroku. I was thinking more along the lines of Spiderman 2 or something they play in normal theaters…"

So, the four went to the movie theater after they finished eating. They had a great night free of any freaky stalkers or odd auras. You would have thought the four teenagers led completely normal lives.

"It was nice to have one normal night," Kagome said to herself as she stretched, getting out of the car. They had gone to Sango's house after the movie and it had been getting pretty late before they all left. Inuyasha had just dropped Kagome off at the shrine. Kagome waved to him as he pulled away, and went upstairs to her room. Changing into her pajamas and lying down, she fell into a peaceful sleep.
