Pre-Chapter Note: This title, Fuyuki, is the name of my own character in the fic. It's a mixture of fuyu, meaning winter, and yuki, which means snow. They go together, and they also make a cool word when you smoosh them together! But please don't take it… I love the name. Oh, and her last name is AKAZE… which is like aki (autumn) and kaze (wind) which also go together!

"What classes do you have? You should have them all with us since we're roomies!" Sango snatched Kagome's class listings.

Culinary

Traditional English

Study

Earth Science

Physical Education

Traditional Algebra

"Well?" Kagome was eager to know. If Sango wasn't in any of her classes, she'd be so lost. Even though she was only there for two days, she felt like she knew Sango for two years. They were already inseparable and closer than sisters. Kagome never knew someone who was so much like herself.

"Every single one!" she squealed. They both jumped up and down, smiling.

"You two are such girls!" Inuyasha yelled from the bathroom.

"Oh, shut up! We're two girls you'll be seeing everyday until we're old!" Kagome laughed.

Things really weren't as bad as she thought they'd be. Sango was so right. You learn to love everyone. Miroku was perverted, but she thought he was awesome. He was caring and really deep underneath his skater exterior and perverted thoughts. Inuyasha – well, he was just Inuyasha. He was funny! He was always complaining, trying to be Mr. Cool, but Kagome knew there was another side to him she just didn't see yet.

"Are you nervous?" Miroku asked, putting his unfinished homework into a binder he slung under his arm.

"A little. Just scared to meet new people…"

"Oh, admitting to your fears?" Inuyasha said with freshly brushed teeth.

"Shut up! You're so hooked on my fears, aren't you?" Kagome's voice was close to yelling.

"Yeah, I am. I want to see how quickly you break."

"I won't break. I have no reason to."

"Whatever," he said and laughed. "Let's go."

The class was making a giant feast in culinary for the end of the marking period. And Inuyasha and Kagome were paired up to do the No Bake Cheesecake Pie. It was mayhem.

"Eww it's all clumpy! Kagome, you fucking bitch, you didn't melt the chips right!"

"Yes I did!" They were both laughing their asses off as he made puking noises while pouring the mix into the pie crust.

"Inuyasha, Kagome! Get to work, or you'll be failing!" Their fatty cooking teacher barked.

"We're already done, don't have a cow!" Inuyasha called, then whispered to Kagome, "Although she probably could have a cow for dinner…"

Kagome was already sitting on her foot while kneeling on the floor to keep herself from peeing. "Shut up! I swear I'm going to piss myself if I keep laughing!"

"Ha, ha! You still need diapers, huh?"

"I do not!" Kagome got up from the floor. "Let's hurry and put this in the fridge before the teacher sees how shitty it looks."

"You're right." They rushed to put it in the fridge.

Kagome and Inuyasha sat down in their assigned seats and tried their best to look normal. That pie wasn't even a pie at all. It looked like it came from underneath Inuyasha's bed, which wasn't very pretty to begin with. It smelled like it was a week old, and it felt like it would fall apart. They could only pray that it would taste good, and then the looks wouldn't matter too much. It's smeary yellow color and crumbly toasted crust made it look like it was made from clay. Really bad clay, that is.

A girl slowly walked past the two. She was beautiful in a crazy sort of way. She had medium length black hair in two pigtails perched on the top of her head, both held up by separate red ribbons. She had cat-like green eyes and a catty smile to match. She wore a black jacket with safety pins attaching one sleeve to the rest of it, which Kagome thought was wicked. She wore a red neck tie with a black pin with a red star on it. Under her jacket she wore a white tank-top, and she wore a red plaid skirt with black fishnets and army boots. It was a typical, crazy, gothic schoolgirl look.

She glared at Kagome evilly, like she had known her forever and absolutely despised her. The girl toyed with the knife in her hands. She looked threatening.

"Akaze-san! You know you are not allowed to handle knives!" the teacher scolded her and snatched the knife from her.

In study hall, Kagome sat next to Inuyasha and Sango. She thought she'd enjoy this class most, since they didn't have to do any work. And as for being quiet, well… The teacher should've known better. Kagome was sure the rules would change soon.

Kagome couldn't help but notice that girl giving her evil looks fro her seat up by the teacher's desk. Considering teachers were always watching over her, Kagome thought she was probably a bad kid. "What's that girl's problem?" Kagome spat.

"Who?" Sango and Inuyasha asked in unison.

"That one with the pigtails. In culinary she pointed a knife at me, and now she's giving me evil looks."

"That's Fuyuki," Sango said. "Just… stay away from her."

"Why? What's she going to do? Bite me?"

"She'll kill you is what," Inuyasha whispered. "She's in here for homicide. She's killed four people in her hometown, and the teachers are always watching her because she killed someone here in Fukuzatsu last year."

"What kind of baka would kill someone while they're being punished for it?"

"She isn't a baka. She's just crazy. It all started when Tomiko arrived last year…"

Xx Flashback xX

Tomiko arrived just like Kagome did. She opened the door to room 69 while the whole group was chilling. But there was something different about their group. Back then, the little posse of Fukuzatsu included: Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, and Fuyuki.

Fuyuki had been friends with them for the longest time. They all knew each other so well. It was like they were childhood friends, but they were just really close. She was always sneaking off to their room to hang out with them, maybe smoke some weed. She was always finding ways to get the four into trouble. She was the lively one!

Tomiko arrived, and it all changed. This was a new person to the group. And she was living in their room. Fuyuki felt replaced. It was her job to keep them entertained, but now that Tomiko was there twenty-four seven, Fuyuki was slowly losing their interest. It wasn't like they were intentionally doing it, because Inuyasha and the rest still loved Fuyuki. They thought she would like to get to know Tomiko like they were doing.

Everyday Fuyuki grew more and more jealous of Tomiko. Tomiko was stealing her friends away! She was taking her place as the interesting one. She was reducing Fuyuki's space in her friends' hearts. Soon Fuyuki began thinking.

Fuyuki really didn't want to think of doing these things to Tomiko, but the images and plans flooded her memories. She felt so much better when she saw Tomiko's blood in her mind. She knew that the time would come where she would have an outburst. Fuyuki snuck in some tranquilizers to keep herself from hurting anyone, or hurting herself. Soon enough she ran out of them.

But the next day, it felt like all she saw was Tomiko. All she heard from Inuyasha and her other friends was about how great Tomiko was. Like she had so many nights before, she snuck into the group's room at midnight, making sure they were all asleep. She smothered poor Tomiko, and then stabbed her to death, leaving her blood stains all over the bed for the group to find in the morning. She stole the body and managed to squeeze it through the bars in the windows, and she let the body drop to the ground, resulting in a bloody puddle in the front of the school.

All three of Fuyuki's friends: Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku, knew who did this, and they turned her in. The school held a funeral, and put Fuyuki in the psychommunity (copyright hideto matsumoto , RIP) for a while. A couple months later, Fuyuki somehow convinced the administrator that she was psychologically well, and they let her go back to her normal, Fukuzatsu-like lifestyle, except this time, she had no friends to get into trouble with. The teachers thought it would be safer this way, so did Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku. But nobody could ever be too sure.

Sango shook her head. "She's probably growing jealous of Kagome, now that she's our friend. I just hope she doesn't try to kill you…"

"Yeah. God… I can't accept anyone who's killed someone else. It's just awful," Inuyasha growled. Sango nodded.

With that final statement, Kagome was even more scared to say something about her own past.

Xx That Night xX

Kagome lay in her bed, unable to fall asleep. Just thinking of the girl – Fuyuki Akaze – scared her. Could she really want to kill Kagome just because she was hanging out with her old friends?

After tossing and turning for what seemed like eons, Kagome got out of bed and sat on the couch to try to watch television. She knew it was a school night, but she didn't care. She used to do this all the time at home. But after flipping through most channels and only seeing infomercials, she decided she'd rather try to sleep.

Except there was one problem: at home she had a bit of a sleeping problem. After she'd seen Ringu, she was scared to go to sleep on her own, so she slept with her mom. It made her feel safe. She stopped being scared of the movie but she still kept sleeping with her mother. She knew it was childish, but when she tried going to bed in her own room, she couldn't sleep at all. And now she dragged the bad habit here, to the boarding school. The past two nights weren't that bad because she was too tired to even think about being uncomfortable while sleeping. She basically passed out on her bed, so she didn't even have time to think about it. But tonight was just… eneh… (a/n: that's my own little word… I think it explains itself…)

Kagome looked around the room. There was no way she'd get in the same bed with Miroku. End of story! Sango kicked and talking her sleep, which was extremely annoying. It was annoying just being in the bed next to her! Kagome sighed as she looked at Inuyasha's sleeping form.

She slowly walked over to him and tapped him on the shoulder. He lazily opened one glowing eye. "What…?" he grunted.

"Um… could I maybe, uh, sleep with you?"

He stared at her. "Why?"

"Let's just call it a bad habit… I have to sleep with someone at night, or I won't be able to fall asleep."

He propped himself up on one elbow. "Well you didn't need to yesterday or the day before."

"I was too tired to think about it. I just feel asleep right away. Please?"

"Why can't you ask Sango?" he whined.

"She kicks in her sleeeeeep!" she whined back.

"Miroku?"

Kagome just looked at him.

He got the point and sighed. "Fine. But don't complain about me sleeping in my boxers."

"Fine with me as long as you don't care that I sleep in a tank and panties," she said while slipping off her sweatpants.

"Whatever," he said and rolled on his other side, facing opposite of her.

Kagome crawled in the bed and pulled the covers up to her shoulders. Now she felt safe and calm. As she listened to Inuyasha breath, she felt herself drifting off into her own dream world, too.

A/N: LOL! Kagome's "sleeping problem" is actually what I do. …yes, it's sad. I sleep wiff mah mommy! And most of the time, I need to sleep with someone if she's not home… :)
