No, I do not own Inuyasha! Rumiko Takashi has full responsibility over him and his friends!

Chapter 4: No time for fire drills!

Kag Pov

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!

Inu Pov

DAMN! DAMN! DAMN!

Neither one could believe their horrible and yet blind luck! It appears their rooms are right next to each others for the whole school year. Inuyasha and Kagome stared with wide eyes and gaped mouths at the realization.

As students ran out from the halls it seemed time stood still from Inuyasha and Kagome's point of view. Neither of them could hear the alarm still ringing, nor the students yelling, panting, and stomping through the halls. The only sound either could hear was that of their beating hearts.

Kagome didn't even realize the brown headed girl yelling her name from a few doors down.

"Kagome! Kagome! It's the fire alarm…We have to evacuate now!" said a panting Sango.

No movement was made as the pair looked endlessly at one another.

Sango finally made it to Kagome's door placing a hand on her shoulder awakening Kagome from her trans.

"Kagome! Didn't you hear me? We have to evacuate to the parking lot!"

"Huh?" said a questioning Kagome.

"Come on Kagome, let's go! I'm pretty sure I saw some half naked guys running down the hall!" Snickered her brown headed friend.

"Sango! Honestly!"

"Oh come on girl! You know you were thinking it too!"

"I was not Sango!"

Kag Pov

I just can't believe it! Of all the stupid, horrible, rotten luck! Of all the guys in the world I could be next door to, of all the music majors in this school…I had to be placed right next to him!

Inuyasha seemed to be annoyed by the girl's continuous jabbering and finally made a protest.

"Oi! Why don't you two just go already?"

"Excuse me? Hey Kagome, is this one of your friends?"

"No, just a really annoying neighbor!" said Kagome giving Inuyasha a death glare.

"Oh! Well, my name's Sango!" she said giving her hand for him to take.

Inuyasha just looked at her with disgust turning his head to look down the hall.

"Keh! Whatever!"

Inu Pov

I can't believe this! She's right next door to me? Whose lame ass joke is this? Of all the girls in the world I could live next to, of all the music majors in this school…I had to be put next to her!

"Well, come on Kagome, we need to go!"

"Good riddens," said Inuyasha over his shoulder.

"Wait! Aren't you coming too?" asked Kagome

Inuyasha gave out a snort saying,

"Whatever! I don't get into the group pow wows. Not my thing."

"It's the fire alarm moron! You have to go," said an outraged Kagome.

"Why? So I can stand out there in the cold with the rest of you idiots?"

"It's the law Inuyasha," said Sango.

"Not in my book!"

With that Inuyasha waved and closed his door.

"Is he for real?"

"Yeah Sango…He's one of the many jerks we will encounter on this campus."

"Hmm, hope they're all that cute!"

"Sango?"

"Oh come girl…You have to admit, those looks are so irresistible!"

"Oh yes they are! Once you realize what's underneath them, it's very easy to try and avoid them. Unfortunately, I have had the hardest time avoiding him."

"Oh, you think he's cute don't you?"

"No…He just seems to be wherever I am."

Kagome just shrugged at her confused friend and they headed down the hall to the stairs and down to the parking lot. They were out their for thirty minutes waiting for the Community Advisors, or CAs to check and make sure everyone was out of the dorms. It turns out Inuyasha joined them after all when he was escorted by one of the CAs out to the parking lot.

Kagome couldn't help but snicker to herself as she saw Inuyasha take a solitary position with the rest of the cattle and cross his arms against his muscular chest.

Kag Pov

Ha! That's what you get for trying to break the law moron!

"Oh my gosh! Sango, do you see what I see," said a young girl with bright red hair coming up behind them.

"Oh yes! The most gorgeous sight in the whole world!"

Both Sango and the girl reply,

"Guys wearing only a towel!"

The two began to squeal to their heart's content and bust out laughing. Kagome could only look on with a very nervous expression planted on her face. Sango quickly looked over at Kagome and then motioned towards her.

"Oh Ayame, this is Kagome!"

"Hey Kagome, what's up?"

"Uh, not much, just chillin' with the rest of the cold people."

Ayame couldn't help but snort at her remark.

"I like you, you actually have a sense of humor."

"Oh! Kagome lives right down the hall from us Ayame!"

"Are you serious? No freakin' way!"

"It's true! She's in room 239!"

"This is so awesome! Hey Kagome, if you ever need anything, don't hesitate…I'm in room 247. Stop on by any time!"

"Thanks Ayame, that means a lot!"

"Well, we gotta stick together. I mean we are the only people we have here."

"You know…I think we should have a sleep over in one of our rooms. That way we could get to know each other."

"That's a great idea Sango! What do you say Kagome?"

"Uh…I don't know. I mean, we just met in all."

"Yeah, and Sango and I just met today over in the dining hall during lunch time!"

"Really? From the way you guys talk it's like-"

"We've known each other for years?" said Sango.

"Yeah…Exactly."

"Nope…Just like talking that's all," said Ayame.

"Come on Kagome, it'll be fine. Now that we've met you won't be able to get rid of us!"

"All right…I say we stay in my room. I have a TV, DVD player, VCR, and of course a laptop."

"Girl, you had us at TV!" sqealed Ayame.

Soon a young man with long black hair got on a the top of the steps of the phase saying,

"All right everyone! Back in your rooms!"

"Hey Koga, what was the deal anyway?" asked one of the students.

"We were just testing the fire alarms out!"

"Is that all?" shouted Sango.

"Hey what is this open mike night? Everyone get back into your rooms!" said Koga turning around and blowing everyone's words off.

"Well, you heard the man!" said a cheerful Kagome.

The students immediately began herding back into their rooms, especially the young ladies only in their bath robes. The men didn't seem to mind so much considering all the young ladies asking for their phone numbers as well as room numbers.

(Slumber Party back in Kagome's Room)

"Ok…Truth or Dare Sango?" asks Ayame on the floor eating popcorn.

"Um…Truth!"

"Have you ever…Hmm, kissed a guy?"

"What kind of a question is that? We're in college Ayame!"

"Well? Have you?"

Sango looks from Kagome to Ayame and then stares at her bag of chips. They hear something in a whisper; but can't quite make it out.

"I'm sorry what was that Sango?"

"I said…No…I haven't kissed a guy!"

"Don't feel bad Sango…Neither have I," said Kagome putting a hand on her friend's shoulder.

"Well, that takes away the question I was gonna ask ya Kagome," said Ayame stuffing more popcorn into her mouth.

"Why don't we quit this stupid game and ask each other normal questions?"

"Well, you sure took the fun out of this room Sango."

"I'm serious Ayame! Come on, this game isn't really telling us anything. Why not just come out and ask more important things?"

"Like what?"

"Like…Where everyone's from?"

"Oh yeah…That might actually be good to know. Ok, Sango…Where are you from?"

"Dallas!"

"Ok…Kagome…What about you?"

"I'm from East Texas…Nacogdoches!"

"Hmm…Ok…Well, I'm from Louisiana. New Orleans to be exact."

Both girls looked at her with wide eyes and couldn't help but feel their hearts sinking into their chests.

"Oh my gosh Ayame! Are you one of the Hurricane Katrina evacuees?"

"Sure am Sango!"

"Well, are you like…all right emotionally?" asked Kagome.

"Oh yeah…Besides my house being in ruins, my dog drowning supposedly, and no financial aid helping me right now…I'd say I'm doing pretty ok."

"So…How's your family?" Sango asked managing a slight sqeak.

"They're staying at my Aunt's house right now. We're trying to get loans and FEMA to help out. Don't know what's gonna happen."

"I'm so sorry Ayame."

"Don't feel bad for me Kagome. I'm alive aren't I? That's all that matters. Just because things look bad now, doesn't mean it's gonna last forever. My family will get back on their feet and we will be just fine."

"Say it loud say it proud Ayame!" Busts out Sango in praise.

The girls began to laugh and joy once again filled the room. It wasn't until 2am that they finally laid their heads down and went to sleep.

"Good night Sango! Good night Kagome!" says Ayame.

"Good night Ayame! Good night Kagome!" says Sango.

"Good night Sango! Good night Ayame!" says Kagome.

"Good night Leonardo Dicaprio!" says Sango kissing a picture of him in her hands, then gently putting it under her pillow.

Ayame and Kagome in unison, "WHAT?"

"Oh…Well, I say good night to Leo every night in hopes one day I will find my very own hunk!"

"Yeah…That's good to know…" says Ayame closing her eyes.

"Yeah…You keep doing that Sango," says Kagome shifting under her covers.

"What? You guys act like you've never done anything like this!"

Ayame and Kagome in unison, "Good night Sango!"

Kag Pov

Ok…I've survived two weeks of school already! I can't believe it's only been that long. It feels like I have been here for two months with all the work I've been given. Within these two weeks I have already been given three songs to sing from my voice teacher, Mrs. Yura Kim. She's nice and all; but piles way too much at once. She already wants me to have atleast one of these songs memorized by Wednesday because she is putting me in our first recital for the year this coming Friday! I just can't believe the rotten luck I am having, and my first semester of college too!

"Miroku! You're lucky all that girl did was slap you!"

"Ah come on Inuyasha! It's not like she had a sign saying, 'hands off'!"

"One of these days you are gonna meet the wrong girl and find yourself lying in a hospital room."

"Hmm, then I'd probably have some cute nurse to fluff my pillow every night! You might be on to something here Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha shook his head and as he was walking to his room with Miroku beside him, he noticed the beautiful figure emerging from her room. Miroku quickly jabbed Inuyasha with his shoulder as he watched the wondrous creature lock her door turning to face them.

"Hello Kagome," says Inuyasha.

"Hello Kagome indeed," says Miroku grabbing Kagome's hand and kissing it.

Just before he could actually put his lips on her hand, Kagome quickly took it back giving him a confused look.

"I can see you're not that type of girl, " said Miroku under his breath.

Inuyasha couldn't help but snicker at his disappointed friend.

Inu Pov

Yeah, you ain't gonna get anywhere with her Miroku. Might as well give up while you have some of your dignity still intact.

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure unlike the girls you know, I actually have a mind of my own!"

Inu Pov

This girl keeps getting better and better! Wait…No, no, no, no, no! I only like her for now because she's cutting Miroku down to pieces. That's all…That has to be all.

"You sure are a spunky one aren't you?"

"Yeah, well, this attitude usually keeps the creeps away. But seems I'm starting to lose my edge!"

Kagome rolls her eyes and walks off with the boys looking at her swaying figure.

"Man! You didn't tell me you were living next to an angel!"

"Angel my ass! Maybe Satan's Angel!"

"What? You don't think she's cute?"

"That doesn't matter!"

"Well, if you don't want her, can I have her?"

Now a lump as plain as day can be seen on Miroku's head with Inuyasha looking satisfied at his work.

"Does that answer your question?"
