(Next Day)
Today Inuyasha walked to school instead of usually getting a ride from his mother.As he walked along the cement sidewalk he heard a shout from behind him."Inuyasha!"It was undoubtedly Miroku.He started talking in gasps as if he was being suffocated by an invisible hand.
"I-I- was absent yesterday because of a dumb doctor's appointment."
"Oh ok."replied Inuyasha and just kept on walking.
"You seem relaxed today.Your always being tense and jumpy and i should also mention grouchy."implied Miroku.
The whole time Miroku was talking Inuyasha was, as usual, drifting away.He thought about what had happened the other day before.
"Hey Miroku."
"Yeah?"he answered.
"What's it like to "like" someone?"Inuyasha asked.
"Huh?Can you repeat that again?"Miroku said in bewilderment.
"You know exactly what I said so now tell me."said Inuyasha impatiently waiting.
"Uhhhhh...lets see.You think about them everyday,stare at them when you see them,try to impress them,and oh yeah leave them secret notes folded in hearts in their lockers."he replied.
"Oh ok."
As soon as they arrived at school Inuyasha told Miroku about what happened the day before and wanted Miroku to help him get to know Kagome better.
"Talk to me during lunch ok,"Miroku said."I'll tell you how to get her to fall in love with you."
Lunch
Inuyasha stormed out of his classroom and into the cafeteria to find Miroku.He found him sitting at the end of the cafeteria chewing on a piece of bread while listening to music on his mp3 player.Once Miroku saw Inuyasha he put his mp3 player away and concentrated on the subject at hand.How to make a girl fall in love with you in less than a day.
Inuyasha sat down and the lesson began.
"Ok here's the first thing we do.Since women like muscular or strong men,during gym me and you should have an arm wrestle right in front of the girls and Kagome."
"Well wouldn't that be obvious that I'm trying to impress Kagome?"Inuyasha implied.
"Trust me it'll work in no time."
P.E.
Inuyasha met Miroku in the center of the gym after changing into his gym clothes."Why am I doing this?"he thought."She's just a girl."
"Ok let's arm wrestle now ok.I'll lose on purpose."Miroku stated.
"Whatever,just don't make it too obvious."
"Oh and to attract attention,we need to make grunting sounds ok?"
"Ok lets just begin,"said Inuyasha feeling impatient.
"Begin,"whispered Miroku.
Both of them started "trying" as hard as they could to beat one another.They made grunting noises similar to those of a pig's.Miroku went hard on Inuyasha at first but eased a little when everyone came to watch,including Kagome.When he saw her,Inuyasha used full force and smashed Miroku's arm and hand into the air.Everyone wasn't impressed and just walked away.
"Oops I forgot to bring us a table or bench to arm wrestle on.I guess I got carried away.Hehehe..."laughed Miroku.
"Why you!"
Inuyasha chased after him like a cheetah but even faster.He grabbed Miroku by the collar and clonked him in the head with his fists.Miroku fell down and pretended to be unconscious so Inuyasha wouldn't hit him anymore.Everyone laughed at Miroku and tried to help him up.Miroku whispered quietly to them he didn't wanna get up yet so they left him.
"Why'd you have to go and do that to your bestfriend?"asked Kagome.
"Just for fun.I always do that to him knowing he won't get back up until I'm out of sight."he replied back.
Kagome giggled a little bit when she heard Inuyasha's sentence.
Just then the teacher came out and class began.Today they were required to run 2 miles(8 times)around the track.Everybody hated this but just did it.The first one to finish was Kouga and as usual he would showing off.Everyone always said he cheated because he would cut through the middle of the track when the teacher wasn't looking.But as always the teacher never believed them.
Everyone went outside and lined up by the white line they teacher made using medical tape.
"On your marks,ready,go!"the teacher yelled.
Inuyasha and Kouga flew in front of everyone within 5 seconds,it wasn't a regular cardiovascular workout now,it was an all out race.Kouga was ahead at first but slowed down because he saw some dog poo right in front of him.Inuyasha bursted ahead and kept on going with Kouga close behind.'I'm gonna win!"Inuyasha thought.He took one look behind him and the next thing he knew he was on the ground.Apparently he had forgotten to tie his shoes and had faced the consequences.Kouga lapped Inuyasha and everyone was disappointed he didn't win.Inuyasha just got back up and joined in with the other slowpokes feeling ashamed to losing to someone like Kouga.
"Grrrrrr damn shoe!Why?"he whined.
"Calm down Inuyasha it was just a little race,who cares?"Miroku replied back.
"I do!And I wanted to impress Kagome..."
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..."laughed Miroku."You...ahahahahahahahahahaha!"
"Shut up!"yelled Inuyasha.
Inuyasha was getting annoyed so he clunked Miroku in the head.
"Ouch!Why'd ya do that?"he cried.
"You brought it on yourself Miroku."
After the big clunk,Miroku thought it best to not say anything until after class.
Afterschool
Inuyasha went to find Kagome at the bench she always sat at before walking home.And as usual he found her sitting there alone staring into the blue sky."What is up with this girl?"he thought to himself.
Inuyasha forced a smile on his face and greeted Kagome."Hi Kagome!"
"Hi Inuyasha,"she said sadly.
"What's wrong?"he asked.
"My parent's are getting a divorce..."she said.
"Oh..."
Just then Kouga walked by outta nowhere and asked them what they were doing.
'Well well,why isn't it the nerdy and the mut.Are you two on a date or something?"he said nastily.
"Mind your own business Kouga!Before I have to make you!"Inuyasha said threateningly.
The whole time Kagome was watching them she rolled her eyes."Oh brother,"she thought."These just can't get enough of each other."So Kagome got up and left without the slightest sound or vibration.When Inuyasha fnished arguing with Kouga he looked at the bench to see no one there.
"Look at what you did Kouga!You scared her away!"he said growling.
"I scared her away?Maybe if you look in the mirror then you'll know why she left!"
Inuyasha was holding back his rage now.
"What's the matter?She your girlfriend?"said Kouga in a lame voice.
"No!You jackass!"Inuyasha shouted back.
With that he stomped the whole way home frustrated with Kouga.But while Inuyasha was walking home,Kouga thought up an evil plan to make things worse for Inuyasha than they already are.
