Chapter 5- Mondays are chaotic

Monday soon arrived; it was already lunchtime. Once again Kagome was standing in line, while Miroku was in the clinic for his latest slap. Kagome got chicken ramen and water, and walked over to the tree that she ate under the first day of school. That had become their regular eating-place. Sango was already there, eating a sandwich.

"Hiyaas Sango!"

"Hey Kagome!"

Kagome sat down next to her friend under the large tree and started eating.

"BOO!"

"What the—"

"Holy crap!"

Sango dropped her sandwich, and Kagome spilt some of her ramen. Inuyasha jump down from the tree, and sat next to Kagome. He was laughing from scaring them.

"You guys are easy to scare."

"That was not funny."

"Yeah, it was."

"I burnt myself."

"Okay, that wasn't part of the plan, gomen. Are you okay?"

Inuyasha took a hold of Kagome's hand and examined it.

"Where did you burn your self?"

"I doesn't matter, I'm fine…" She tried to retrieve her hand back, but failed to his grasp.

"Oh, there…" He suddenly licked Kagome's burnt spot on her hand. Kagome blushed a deep shade of red as she retrieved her hand from his loosened hold. Sango was giggling at his actions and Kagome's expression on her face.

"Yum, chicken flavored…" He mused, as Kagome looked away and continued eating.

"Don't you have any food Inuyasha?" Sango asked, munching on her sandwich.

"Feh, I never bring lunch, occasionally I will buy some."

"Cheapo, trying to get our food. You taking Miroku's all last week."

"I am not! I bought that necklace that Kagome's wearing!"

"Oh really! I was wondering where that came from!"

Kagome blushed some more. "Inuyasha sure does know how to make a girl blush…"

"I am so jealous Kagome! You got a guy buying you pretty things…I want something shiny…"

"Well, I…" Kagome began to speak, "Note to self, tell Miroku to buy something shiny for Sango…"

The bell rang, sending all the students back in to class. "Saved…" both Kagome and Inuyasha thought. Kagome ran to P.E. class, she loved moving, and this class let do that exactly.

"Damn, I forgot to ask Sango who else was going to the water park…"

Kagome walked into the locker room, and got her clothes on. She still didn't know any one in this class still, so she was quiet. She lined up out side against the wall. She felt self-conscious of herself when she heard whispers of her name.

"Isn't that girl the one?"

"Yeah, Kagome Higurashi…"

"She was with Inuyasha…"

"I wonder how mad Kikyo is!"

"I'm rooting for Kagome, Kikyo is a biznotch!"

Kagome looked around at the girls. One walked up to her.

"Are you Kagome Higurashi?"

"Yeah…why is every one whispering about me?"

"Everyone heard from Nabeki, the gossip queen, that you were on a date with Inuyasha, when you were suppose to be with Hojo."

"Every girl is like jealous!"

"Hojo, the hottest human asked you out, then you ditched him for Inuyasha, the sexiest hanyou! Kikyo's ex that actually broke up with her."

"Oh well—"

"Is Kasumi right about the necklace? Did he buy it for you?"

"Well, yeah but—" Girls continued to swarm Kagome for Information about the latest affair in their school.

"Ladies, ladies, line up!" The coach said, blowing her whistle after. The girls lined up completely straight.

"Today, we play dodge ball!"

"Oh great…"

"Yay!"

"Crap…"

Comments were heard from all over; it was like every day, with a new game each time.

"A-P, west side, Q-Z east side." The coach ordered. The girls sadly split up, but new chat groups were formed soon after. They still whispered about Kagome and Kikyo, there was allot of talk about how every one thinks they were going to fight. Kagome studied three new girls by the coach. They walked over to Kagome afterwards.

"Hello!" one of them chirped, looking happy.

"How are you?"

"Hi…" The last girl said sheepishly.

"Konichiwa, I'm fine, you guys?"

"Great." They said in unison.

"New?"

"Yeah, we were a week late due to our vacation."

"I'm Ayumi!"

"My name's Eri."

"Yuka is my name."

"I'm Kagome!"

"Oh my! The Kagome the girls are whispering about?"

"Yeah, I guess."

"I still haven't seen this 'Inuyasha' hanyou guy, but he is suppose to very attractive. Is he?"

"Umm, well yeah I guess. He has long silver hair, golden eyes, and a really great body." Kagome was shocked at what she was saying, she never really ever gossiped. But that was because she was always around guys, Miroku liked to some times know what was going on, but it was rare.

"Really! You're so lucky!"

"I guess, but we aren't really together. He was just being nice that day for beating Hojo up. But I don't think I will ever go out with Hojo, he doesn't like hanyous and youkai."

"Really? How rude!"

"He beat Hojo up? I went to school with him in middle school!"

"He deserves it!"

"Yeah, defiantly, he said I was disgusting for liking Inuyasha as a friend!"

"Oww!"

Eri ducked and Ayumi got hit in the head with a ball.

"I got it!" Kagome yelled, catching the ball to get the other person out, and not Ayumi.

"Crap…" The girl walked over to the sideline.

"Yuka! Watch out!"

"What?" Yuka turned around and caught the ball just in time.

"Ayumi! Watch your self!"

"Huh?" Ayumi got hit in the arm, and got out. "Shimatta…" A/N: Shimatta: damn it

The girls on west and east side continued to dodge assaults from the opposing side, and return the favor. In the end, the west side won with nine people out of 31 left.

"Konoka, Nodoka, Yue, Yuna, Akira, Makie, Ako, Fei, Lingshen, good job! Extra points to you all!"

"Yes!"

"Damn, I got out…"

"That's it for today! Go to you next explo girls!"

All the girls returned to the locker rooms, changed, and left. Kagome walked to cooking class. Ayumi, one of the new girls, accompanied her.

"I can't believe I got out 5 times." She giggled, as the walk to class.

"I'm surprised that got back in! I got out again though…"

"Who cares? We had fun!"

The girls walked into class and settled in their chairs. They all studied the bored, and took their notes and instructions. The bored information was proper ways for rising cakes. The class seemed shorter than usual, but it ended, and they were out of school finally.

"That was fun! I love learning!" Ayumi chirped, as she was walking with Kagome."

"I guess."

Kagome split up with Ayumi and went her locker to get the rest her stuff. Abruptly, some closed her locker from behind. She turned around quickly to find Kikyo face to face.

"Kagome, I don't like what your pulling with Inuyasha."

"What? What are you talking about?"

"You know exactly, that little date wasn't very private. Nabeki video taped you guys at the mall."

"Huh?"

"You better stop seeing Inuyasha, or your going to go through hell."

"I can see him if I want! And plus! There isn't any thing going on between us! That date was a one time thing!"

Kikyo slapped Kagome across the face.

"That's a warning, you better not see him again."

Kikyo walked away, and left Kagome in utter confusion. "I can't see Inuyasha? We're just friends! Or are we more? I can't figure him out!"

"Kagome, what happen? I just saw Kikyo walk away from here!" Miroku asked, seeking any information from her.

"Nothing, nothing happened."

"You're lying! Why is your lip bleeding?" Miroku interrogated, "and you have red hand mark like I usually do."

"Nothing happened!" Kagome cried; tears started to form at the corners of her eyes.

"It's okay Kagome…" Miroku hugged Kagome tightly, as she cried in his shoulder.

"Want me to grope her?"

"Yeah…"Kagome sniffled. Miroku always said that to make her feel better when a girl was being mean to her.

"Wanna go see Sesshoumaru?"

"Sure…"

Miroku helped her into his car and drove over to Sesshoumaru. Miroku handed her a tissue from the glove compartment, and handed it to her to wipe her mouth.

They walked into Sesshoumaru's house with out knocking.

"Why are you guys here?" Sesshoumaru asked, coming out of his room to see his knew guest.

"Kagome is being stubborn again, and Kikyo did something to her. She won't tell."

"Oh. So drill M.I.S.O.?"

"Yerp."

"Movie, Ice cream, Sleep over."

"Aren't we getting to old for a sleep over?" Kagome finally got out.

"Naw…"Sesshoumaru replied, sounding cheery. "I just got a new futon in the living room, we'll use that."

"Can Sango and Rin come?" She hiccupped.

"Sure, call them up Miroku, would ya?"

"'Kay."

Miroku called Sango and Rin and went and picked them up. They had dropped Kohaku at Lady Kaede's and stopped at the store and picked up ice cream and other things.

When they arrived at home, Kagome was wrapped in Sesshoumaru's tail. Inuyasha was sitting next her on the couch.

"Back, and we have all the ice cream a sad teenager could eat. Also the movie, Spirited Away."

"Yay." Kagome chirped. "I am way to spoiled…"

"So? We all are! You would do the same for any of us, right?"

"Yes, of course."

Kagome and squeezed in between Sango and Rin on the next couch. Miroku sat next to Sesshoumaru.

"Did she say why yet?"

"Nope, she just cried. Allot. I think she cried even more when Inuyasha came home." Sesshoumaru added. Inuyasha was listening on their conversation.

"I wonder why…"

"Yeah, me too. I think it has to do with me. She did cry more when I got home."

"Maybe. I bet Kikyo tried to scare her away from you."

"Actually, to think of it, I can almost guarantee it."

"I hope she isn't going to pull any thing rash…"

"Knowing Kikyo so well, she will."

The boys looked over at Kagome. She was watching the movie, she cheered up quite a bit.

Kagome felt so relaxed between her two best girlfriends. She loved how her friends always loved her, and protected her. She had also protected her friends. She remembered one time Miroku was being harassed by another guy because he groped his girlfriends a month before, and somehow she got him out of that mess.

She felt a smile pull at her lips.

When the movie ended, they started making their beds. They settled that the girls got the futon, and the boys would sleep on the ground.

"It's only 5:15pm, let's do our home work so we aren't screwed for school tomorrow." Kagome suggested.

"Good idea…" Kagome rustled around in her back, the same as every one else. It was a school night, but any thing for friends.

They worked on what home work they had for 3 hours. It was 8:00 when they decided to eat something. Kagome and Sango decided to make them food because they both liked to cook. They made ramen and a vegetable stir-fry.

"This looks delicious!"

"Yes, very good."

"Can you make this at home Kagome?"

"Ramen! Home made ramen!"

They sat around the table eating the food the two girls made. Soon everyone finished, and Kagome cleaned the table.

"Kagome let me help you." Inuyasha insisted.

"Oh, Okay…"Kagome picked up the plates, and Inuyasha got the pot from the ramen. Every one left the room and went to the living room to watch TV.

"Kagome, is Kikyo bothering you?"

"Ah! What makes you say that?"

"Don't hind it Kagome. Everyone is worried. We can't help you if we don't know what's going on. Is she bothering you?"

"Hai…" Kagome looked down and concentrated on washing the dishes.

"It's okay, we'll all protect you."

"But I don't want to be trouble for you guys!"

"We want to help, if we didn't, we wouldn't ask."

"Okay…"

A/N: I finished another! Woot woot! Life is good…you guys encourage me to write, and that makes me feel cool. I check my mail to see that I have had people reviewing, it's awesome!
