Getting To Know You

(And yes, I am still alive...)

Disclaimer: I don't own this, and if you try to sue me all you're going to be doing is paying a huge bill to get...well, not that much. you'll get the $25 dollersI have on me - I'll most likely have spent it by then though - and my cell bill, my rent bill, my internet bill, and my cable bill and then I'll be living with you. Hey - do you think you want to? Cause if you do that might not be such a bad thing... (except you could be a total jerk and thenwhere wouldI be?) Anyway.I don't own,and I'm in no way making money from doing this.

Have fun reading this.

And here is the message I wrote in the spell checkedchapter one:

AN Hi everyone, I know I haven't done anything with this or my other stories in so long. I just have to tell you how sorry I am for that. This past year or so has been really hard on me, it's like I've been living in Limbo and I'm just getting out. So now that I'm back into this demention I'll hopefully be updating more. Right now I've gone back and corrected some spelling errors and seperated some of the paragraphs. So read and enjoy and sorry about taking so long to get my head out of my ass...

I woke up to a loud buzzing sound. Groaning I pulled the covers over my head, then my pillow when I still heard the annoying sound. The buzzing was interrupted by something that could only horribly resemble singing if it were a dying screeching cat that had a whine like nails on a chalkboard. No, sorry, that would actually sound better, not to mention whoever was attempting to sing was tone deaf and badly off key. It was torture.

"What the hell is that?" I moaned, then quickly added, "And shut it off!"

Ayame's voice reached my ears, right after that god awful noise stopped, guess I know who it was. Remind me never to be in the same room with her if she decided to do that again. I don't think my eardrums could handle it. Humm, maybe we could get her to sing to the other team right before a game. It was just a thought…

"It's the alarm clock Kag! And it's time to get up, come on, don't you want to go for a run, go eat breakfast, read something, or do something?" she asked, her voice sounding hyper.

My eyes narrowed as I pulled back the covers to glare at her. She was way too perky in the morning. And perky must be destroyed. My voice was thick with sleep when I asked the question that would decide whether she lived or died.

"What time is it?"

Ayame suddenly became quiet. And I knew exactly what that meant.

My voice was low and deadly as I asked the question again. "What time is it exactly?"

"5:15" Ayame said, an uneasy smile on her face, as if she realized that she was walking into a dangerous territory.

My eyes closed. Now, to explain a few things. I love going jogging, I really do – in fact I'm kinda obsessed. But there is only one thing that will come before it, and that is sleep. I am in no way a morning person, so when someone wakes me 3 hours before I have to get up, well, I get a "testy."

"AYAME WOLVE!" I yelled, throwing the covers off and jumping down from my bunk, ready to maim my friend and nut of a roommate. How could they have possibly roomed me with a morning person?

She took off running, throwing the door open and running into the hall but that didn't stop me from running after her. She was going to pay.

"GET BACK HERE WOLVE, THE MORE YOU RUN THE MORE PAINFUL IT'S GONNA BE! COME BACK HERE AND TAKE IT LKE A GIRL! IT WONT HURT TOO BADLY!" My voice could be heard almost everywhere on the floor, or at least that's what I figured since doors opened to check out what I was screaming about.

After about twenty minutes of chasing Ayame around – she was really fast when she had a good reason to be – I finally dragged the bruised girl into our room and shut the door.

"Now, never wake me up again – unless it's the time I okayed the night before." I told her as I crawled back into my bed. I had about 2hours and 30 minutes left and I wasn't going to waste them.

"So how is it that you didn't wake up with all the drama this morning?" I asked Sango as we were walking towards our class.

"Earplugs. I learned a long time ago about Ayame's morning habits and there is no way I would still be able to hear if I listened to that singing every morning." She told me.

I glared at her. "And you didn't think to warn me about it?" I asked her.

She shrugged. "Trust me when I say that you wouldn't believe it till you heard it. There is no way you would have ever believed that a human being could make those sounds unless you heard them for yourself."

Well, okay, that was true. I had never, ever, thought those sounds were humanly possible, and if she had tried to describe it – well she would have never been able to describe that to the full extent that it was. Never.

History. Wow, great joy there.

Okay it was boring – don't tell me that you could have possibly guessed that.

But we – Sango, Kouga, Eric, Inu, and I, passed notes throughout the entire period and the teacher never caught on. It was somewhat interesting to see the byplay between those four. They like to insult one another yet they all seem to know it's just a joke and not to take it personally.

Like, for example, Kouga and Inu. By the way they interact, you might think they hate each other but if you knew them you'd realize that they are best friends.

With them there the period wasn't nearly as boring as it could have been, and I was grateful. History first thing in the morning is never a good idea. Especially when people are still tired from chasing their roommate around.

Creative writing, well, I spent most of the period glaring at the back of a nervous Ayame.

Then, after that I had to stop for about ten minutes while I explained to a confused Inu. Then I started glaring at her again. It was interesting to see her shuffling in her chair for an hour.

I was so going to make her pay in P.E.

So maybe I do keep a grudge, and maybe I do believe in the whole, 10-fold thing. But I bet after today she wont be waking me up at that god awful time again.

Lunch came around soon enough.

Yes, I am skipping health and drama. But fine, I'll give you a few details. Health was gross pictures about your liver – not something you want to remember while eating lunch.

Drama, well I am SO thankful Ayame is not in this class. The teacher said we were going to be starting on a musical. I almost fainted in relief when I remembered that Ayame wasn't in this class. That is after I almost had a panic attack thinking that she was. Sang, and Inu looked amused, until they were told that they had to sing.

Well, okay, everyone has to sing – but that includes them.

So, back to lunch.

I looked at the glop that was supposed to be the vegetables and wondered about how it was that everything else could be gourmet food but the veggies just didn't cut it.

"So no incidents that Maruka could be blamed for?" Eric asked as he sat down.

"Not so far, but we're keeping our eyes open. We think it might be happening soon, she usually tries to strike before they get to play in the game so since she only has a few days left it should be soon." Sango said.

I nodded. "Yep, yep." I said as I scooped up some peaches on my spoon. Peaches!

"How is it that you're so calm about you're upcoming doom?" Kouga asked and everyone stopped and turned to look at him.

Inu, Ayame, and Sango all hit him upside the head.

"Because." I stated dryly. "I wasn't looking at it as my upcoming doom. But now, thanks to you, I'm starting to."

"Oops." He said and started eating. Probably so he wouldn't say anything else that was stupid.

On my way to Astronomy I was starting to get slightly paranoid. Would she really do something to me? Well, okay, I knew she was, she did after all have mental problems – pretty sure of it.

When I got to the class I got the biggest shock – she wasn't there. I almost when into panic overdrive. If she wasn't here, then where was she? Was she somewhere in the school, setting up a trap or an accident so that I would be hurt?

Crap.

The whole period I couldn't sit still for long.

When it was over I grabbed Ayame. I didn't care about this morning as much as the fact that I wasn't going anywhere without someone else. No one knew what could happen to me if I ended up in an abandoned area.

I dragged her with me to the locker rooms, she was practically glued to my side, and I wouldn't let her go.

"Kag!" She complained. "I can't feel my arm, and I can't walk properly with you holding on so tight."

"Shut up, it's you're boyfriend's fault I've gone into paranoid mode so you're gonna have to deal with it until I feel better damnit!" I told her as I scanned every which way. Nothing was going to get me.

"Fine." She huffed. I think she got that this was part of the punishment for this morning as well as that it was her responsibility to take care of me because it was her guy's fault I was this way. It's in the girl code. And yes, we do have a girl code; we just don't talk about it much.

So there is the new chapter, hope you like it. If you do you should review and if you don't you should review, if you feel absolutely nothing you should review. (See a pattern?)

So maybe, you should review.

Anyway, I will try really hard to review fast. And I'll be working on my Rogue/Remy story too.

Thanks for your support
