Thank you people for all the wonderful reviews! You guys are AWESOME! I am not sure if I am going to thank people one by one because there were so many reviews this time that it would have taken me almost 45 minutes to write them all out and I figured that you guys would rather have a longer story than reviews. If you would like me to keep up the personal notes to people then tell me in a review and if there are enough then I will start up doing them again. Thank you once again people! YOU'RE AWESOME!!

Inu Yasha walked down the empty hallways of Shikon Boarding School in disgust. He hated this place with the passion of ten thousand suns; in fact the only good thing he could think that happened at this school was meeting Kykio. (I hope I spelled her name right…) Although she refused to become his girlfriend, that didn't stop her from letting him take a romp in her garden every once in a while. That was the only thing that had helped him get though that hell hole they called boot camp. Inu Yasha grumbled and kicked the air in anger. 'I shouldn't have been sent to that stupid camp in the first place' he though bitterly. 'I didn't even vandalize that stupid trophy case, it was all Kouga, and they were stupid enough to believe him when he said it was me.' Running his hands through his long silky hair Inu Yasha remembered the trip to the principles office that day.
The principle had demanded to know his alleged alaby if he hadn't vandalized the trophy case, because security cameras had shown he had not been in his dormitory.
'There really wasn't anything I could have said to him without dishonoring Kykio.' He reminded himself miserably. 'What was I supposed to say? Oh, no you've got it all wrong mister; I was in Kykio's dorm doing things that you could only dream about?' Inu Yasha smiled, he could just imagining the look on his principles face.
Finally reaching his classroom Inu Yasha opened the door hoping to make a smooth entrance without the teacher noticing his tardiness. The door seemed to have other plans. When Inu Yasha opened the door it let out a head splitting squeak which was emphasized by the fact the teacher was in the middle of a biology speech and the room was practically silent.
The class all seemed to turn and face him with the same blank stare in unison. 'Whoa,' Inu Yasha thought '…creepy…'
"AH! Mr. Inu Yasha! I was wondering if you were going to make an appearance today! Class," announced the teacher pleasantly turning to face the classroom. "Inu Yasha will be joining us late this year; I hope that you will all help him feel welcome. Mr Inu Yasha, you can take a seat on the table across form Sesshoumaru and Kagome."
Inu Yasha flinched. 'It just figures.' He thought glumly. 'I get put in the one class that Sesshoumaru happens to be in. Inu Yasha slowly marched as if one condemned to his seat and sat down. Turning his face toward Sesshoumaru he looked up with eyes burning to glare at him, but to his surprise, he met a completely different set of blue-gray eyes. His heart froze. 'Is it-no, it can't be, Kykio isn't smart enough for advanced placement. Then who is this?' he wondered. Upon further expectation he realized that this girl, though she did have some similarities to Kykio, she was completely different. Her eyes were full of laughter and love mixed with something else more dark and bruiting that he couldn't place, but whatever it was gave her an dangerous edge. Her sparkling eyes were framed by a thick forest of long lashes, much different than Kykio's almost non-existent ones. Their hair, though similar in color was different too, Kykio's hair was plain, black, fine, and straighter than straw, while this mystery girl's was thick and full with wavy curls thrown in, and he could almost swear he saw a hint of blue shining through it. This girl's body was fuller and much better proportioned than Kykio, she was voluptuous and she had curves in all the right places he mentally noted with satisfaction, while Kykio was almost sickly looking skinny with no hips and barely any boobs. 'Man,' Inu Yasha thought turning to face the teacher with a smirk. 'If people consider Kykio to be the hottest girl in school, just wait until they get a hold of this girl…I have to have her.'
Sesshoumaru glared over at his brother. 'How dare he even look over at Kagome with his grubby eyes.' Sesshoumaru fumed. 'Couldn't he see that she was above him? He didn't deserve her, no one at this school did. If anyone would have Kagome it would be-' Sesshoumaru stopped his train of thought 'where you going to say you?' said a voice from inside of him. Sesshoumaru's face crinkled in disgust. 'As if I would place something like her on my right side.' He retorted suddenly finding his pencil very interesting. 'Besides what would you know about it.' He demanded. The voice let out a crackling laugh. "Ah, much more then you do apparently, much, much more." Then as soon as the voice had popped up, it slowly faded away back into the deep recesses of his mind. Sesshoumaru looked over at Kagome. Over the past month the two were able to take aside there differences and had formed a mutual feeling of not necessarily friendship, but acceptance. Sure they have their little arguments every once and a while but that is what made the day interesting for Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru mentally hit himself. 'What's happening to me?' He thought desperately. 'How can this girl break down these barriers that I have spent my life building in less than a month?'
Sesshoumaru gazed over at Kagome in wonder. Her eyes were halfway drooped down in boredom and her eyes were glazed over as if she was in a totally different world. 'What does this girl have that other girls don't?' he wondered.
Suddenly the bell cried out signaling that classes were over for the day. Sesshoumaru nearly jumped out of his chair in surprise but quickly recovered and stood up slowly. Walking out the door he looked behind him for Kagome so they could leave, you see ever since a week ago they just sort of started walking back to the dorm together, it was a tradition of sorts though most times they were locked in the deadly combat of mental-swordplay.
To his horror he saw Inu Yasha looking around and turning to slowly approach Kagome.
'Oh no you don't.' thought Sesshoumaru angrily. Walking over hastily Sesshoumaru quickly ushered Kagome out of the class room before a word could be said between the two. Kagome looked up at Sesshoumaru with curious eyes.
"What's the matter?" she asked exiting the school building.
"Nothing, I just don't feel like dealing with lowerclassmen today." He replied shortly without turning to look down at her. 'Why are you being so protective?' he silently asked himself. Sesshoumaru shook his head at the thought. 'No,' he answered himself. 'I'm not being protective, but Inu Yasha should know better than to speak to his betters.'
Kagome rolled her eyes but decided to hold her tong for now. 'This is the weekend!' she reminded herself happily. 'And I really don't want to be enemies with Sesshoumaru all year, so this will have to be the time for us to truly make amends.' Kagome thought a few more moments, a brilliant plan coming to mind. 'Maybe,' she thought hopefully 'I can convince Sesshoumaru to come to the midsummer's dance on Saturday! That would be perfect. I'll have to butter him up first, there are layers in his mind that I probably can't even comprehend; I'll have to tread very carefully.' Her eyes drifted over to Sesshoumaru. He seemed to be lost in thought, with his eyebrows knitted down and lips tight; but at the same time his eyes painted a totally different picture. One that spoke of a lonely sad trail, one that it seemed most people didn't seem to bother looking too far into. One where normally people gave up when they hit the defensive traps and words that seemed to come out of him, but Kagome could tell otherwise. Someone who had such deep eyes like his wasn't truly cruel and evil inside, but was just hidden behind a labyrinth of locks and tangles. It was at that moment that Kagome swore to herself that she would be the one to unlock them.
Sesshoumaru looked down at the women walking next to him and saw a dangerous shimmer in the corner of her eyes that he didn't like, one that was bound to lead to trouble.
Inu Yasha watched in burning hatred of his brother as he led Kagome out of the classroom. 'Great!' he thought gruffly grabbing his books and heading out the doorway. 'It just figures that she would hang out with Sesshoumaru. Enjoy it while you can brother, because Kagome WILL be mine.' Inu Yasha shook his head to clear the steam out of it. 'I need to relax; I wonder where Kykio's dorm is this year. Maybe I'll give her an unexpected visit…'
AN: Okay, I know it might not have been as long as you wanted it but it had been such a long time since I updated I was starting to feel guilty, so I put this in ahead of time. I hope you liked it!
