Recap:

"Did you steal it from him?" he asked, his interest rising at the chance at an adventure.

"No!" she retorted, a little annoyed that he would assume such a thing, "He wants to steal it from me."

InuYasha was about to ask another question, but his stomach grumbled loudly; reminding him that he was hungry.

…now that that's out of the way, here is Chapter 2 for your enjoyment.

Chapter 2: Enter Sango

Kagome walked over to the seat across the table from InuYasha. After that conversation out in the hallway, she had lost her appetite. InuYasha still had his, but was eating rather slowly. His amber eyes seemed to drift off into space. His dog-ears were twitching as his thoughts deepened. Kagome's eyes and mind, however, were still on earth. She watched with adoring eyes as InuYasha's ears twitched cutely.

'Where are all InuYasha's friends?' she thought looking around. 'Does he have any friends? He probably doesn't even have one' she thought sadly.'

"Hey, InuYasha? Where are all your buddies?" she asked innocently.

This question brought InuYasha back to earth.

"Some of us don't have the good fortune of having friends," he said in a tone that was colder than his snow-white hair. His eyes looked emotionless at his remark.

"Oh," she said looking away from the frozen-heart hanyou. He returned his stare to space; Kagome continued to look at his ears once again.

Lunch went by slowly but they stayed in that quiet position the entire time.

Once the bell rung, InuYasha took Kagome to the rest of her classes. The day went by, slow and very dully. After that lunch, they had avoided talking or socializing altogether.

Getting to her new room, he was forced to break the awkward silence.

"Here's your dorm, girl. I'll be here fifteen minute's before the first bell rings, got that? So be here," he commented dully. She nodded her head in agreement, her eyes glued to the floor. "And stop bein' so afraid of me; it's starting to piss me off."

She quietly entered the two-bedroom dorm. One side of the room was plain; another wall was covered with wonderful decorations and posters.

Aside from her dull side of the room, there wasn't even a window there to give sunshine or let in the moonlight. The decorated wall was completely covered in posters of bands, charts of weapons, and even a poster of a persons' pressure points. It had a neat scene to it…

"Hello! You must be Kagome, my new dorm-buddy," said a new voice from behind her; this caused Kagome to jump up from the sudden breaking of the silence.

"Oh, yes. Hello. I didn't hear you come in," she stuttered out, while turning to see her new roommate. She was a pretty young woman, with waterfall brown hair that was neatly held in a ponytail. The woman's brown eyes sparkled with kindness.

"I'm Sango," she said reaching out her hand, which Kagome shook eagerly with joy.

"Well, you already know me, so…umm, I'll start unpacking my things," Kagome said, walking over to a very small suitcase that lay pathetically on the bed.

"That's all your stuff?" Sango asked in amazement.

"Yeah, I um… don't have that much money," she said while putting her head down in slight embarrassment.

"Then ask your parents for some. I mean, that's what their there for," she said teasingly.

"I can't; their both, umm… not with me anymore," she said, once again grasping the purple orb around her neck tightly that was hidden bellow her shirt. She had stopped unpacking unexpectedly; her breathing almost stopped as well as she thought of her mother.

"Oh! I'm so sorry, I-I didn't know," Sango apologized.

"It's okay, you couldn't have known. It's not your fault," Kagome explained as she started to unpack again.

"Hey, why don't you come and hang out with me and my friend? We're going to go to the Roller Disco! What do you say? You can even invite any friends you made today," Sango offered as she looked at the shocked Kagome.

"R-really! You want me to hang out with you and your friend?" she asked over excitedly, trying to process the glorious information. Nobody had ever asked her to hang out; or to even talk to her as an equal.

Her sister, Kikyo, had once told her to come and hang out; she ended up getting drunk with all her friends and almost got a severe head injury when they all tackled her.

"Sure!" Sango said excitedly.

"Okay!" Kagome said equally excited. 'I wonder if InuYasha would count as a friend?' she thought to herself. 'He doesn't seem to have any, so I'll be his first friend!'

"I'll go and invite InuYasha!" Kagome said happily.
