Surprise!

*Kagome's POV*

Well today I started going to the after school fencing program. I expected Ms. Kanna to be the one teaching us since it's her best sport but surprisingly it was someone else. It was Sesshomaru! I couldn't believe it! Why would he be the one teaching us?

After that little surprise I decided to look around myself to see if I knew anyone there. Of course everyone knew me since everyone hated me. I didn't recognize most of them but I could identify a couple of people that were in my homeroom. I would guess that there were roughly 20 students in the program.

I was taken away from my thoughts when a girl came barging into the gym. She had black hair with magenta highlights and chocolate brown eyes. Looked about my size.

She waved at me while walking towards me and said, "I'm not late am I? Oh, by the way I'm Sango." Everyone either gasped in horror or gave dirty looks at Sango just because she was being nice to me. It was obvious she was new. She had a confused look on her face.

A girl named Eri from my homeroom walked up to her and whispered something into her ear. "So what if she's rich and she gets good marks? All you people are so cruel! You guys........" Sango was interrupted by a stoic looking Sesshomaru who said in a calm tone, "Please stop yelling so that we can start this program. We're already 10 minutes behind." After seeing a stunned look on Sango's face he continued, "Now everyone put on their suits and masks and we'll start." The class was pretty uneventful. All we did was learn a few techniques and Sesshomaru said that we would actually start fencing next class.

I was about to drive home in my midnight blue echo(people called it the geek mobile) when Sango came running up to me. "Hey can I get a ride? My mom just called me on my cell to say that she couldn't pick me up." Of course I was surprised that she was even talking to me but I nodded and led her to my car. "Hey thanks" I just nodded and an uncomfortable silence came over us. "I'm new here...(I sort of figured that)and I was wondering if you could give me a tour of the school tomorrow morning before school started seeing as I keep getting lost." I thought for a moment. It would be nice to actually not be alone but I was skeptical. What if she was just being nice because of my money? "Um, sorry I'm sort of busy in the mornings." Sango looked hurt but I couldn't take the chance. "Oh this is my house. Thanks again for the ride." I drove of.

Ok so maybe I was being sort of heartless but I couldn't take the chance of taking down my façade once again and then being betrayed. I couldn't be naïve. But I still felt bad.

..Next day..

I was sitting at my desk all alone when Sango walked in. I didn't know she was in my homeroom! She sat down beside me and said, "Good morning" in a cheerful voice. I just nodded dumbly.

I actually started talking to her. We talked about music, books, t.v., etc... We had a lot in common. I decided that she was too sweet to be using me. We had different morning classes so we decided to meet outside at lunch. I was walking especially slowly because I had phys-ed first thing that morning. The bell rang and I knew Ms. Kanna would lecture me about the importance of being on time. I bumped into someone since I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking. It was the evil, stuck-up Kikyo!

"Watch where you're going! Oh it's you. I saw you with the new girl. Looks like you actually made a friend." she spat. "Yah, I did so why don't you get a life and leave me alone." My tone was calm as ever and I had a blank expression on my face as usual. "Why you little! You'll be punished for that!" I saw her hand coming towards my face as I realized that she was going to slap me! Sure she'd ridiculed me before but she'd never actually tried to hurt me physically! A look of horror slipped through my façade as I closed my eyes. I was waiting for the blow but it never came. I opened my eyes to see Sesshomaru holding Kikyo's wrist back!
