A/N: omg, 1st chappie! XD AND! Enter our number one Bishie: INUYASHA! O, and there schedules r based off of mine, and I'm in middle school in USA, so it's probably different from high school in Japan. I filled in some of the gaps from my schedule with some high school courses offered in my school district.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or any other character, and for that matter, I don't own the poem in the prologue. Found it in a chain letter.
Chapter 1
Kagome hurried through her shower and dressed while steam swirled around her head. Grabbing her briefcase off her desk she turned to leave. A piece of paper falling to the carpet caught her attention and she picked it up, seeing that it was the poem she had written earlier. She smiled. Even if it wasn't her best, or if it wasn't about Inuyasha, she liked it, and, slipping the crumbled paper into her briefcase, she headed downstairs.
When she entered the kitchen, grabbing an apple on her way out, she saw her mother humming under her breath, and she was dancing around.
Wonder what she's so happy about...thought Kagome. Shrugging, she called, "See ya Mom!"
"Have a wonderful day, Kagome!" her mother smiled.
A little confused, Kagome shut the door and walked down the seemingly endless shrine steps.
---------
She reached the school in record time, having about fifteen minutes before she was expected in homeroom. Walking slowly toward her locker, she was stopped by several of her friends. Since she wasn't in any hurry, she talked to them, laughing and joking. The emotional torment her heart had gone through that morning seemed to all but disappear.
Finally reaching her locker, she twisted the lock, opening it with a flick of her wrist with practiced ease. Taking off her coat, letting her briefcase fall to the floor, she placed the light fall jacket on a hook, popping open the top, wider locker. She was about to grab her history book when someone tapped her on the shoulder.
She had known today was going to be special, what with her dream, and Mama acting so weird. But this! This was just over the top!
"I told you I'd come back to you," said the male hanyou before her. His voice was midrange, nice to listen to. The dog ears that marked his heritage twitched as she stared back at his molten gold gaze. Unruly bangs topped his waist-length hair. In most guys, that would have been a turn-off. But on him, it gave off a sexy, bad ass look, as did the black shirt he wore. Slightly worn in jeans hung from his hips with a leather belt holding them up. Black sneakers covered his feet and a black bead bracelet gripped his wrist.
"Ya...Yashie?" she stammered, not believing what was right in front of her face.
"Yea, it's me Kag," he chuckled. He hadn't moved toward her anymore, frightened that if he did, she would bolt. She was uncertain it was him, and he didn't want her to be. Just because they hadn't seen each other for three years didn't mean that he'd stopped caring for her!
Kag...No one was allowed to call her that except Inuyasha. And the way he said it, with such caring and tenderness...this was her Inuyasha, this was the boy she'd known since preschool.
"YASHIE!" she screamed happily, tears gathering at the corners of her blue orbs. She flung her arms around his neck. He gripped her waist, careful not to rip her shirt with his claws, and swung her around, laughing.
"Kag!" he answered, happily hugging her to him. Oh, how he had missed that scent. Her personal scent, smelling of sakura flowers and a mysterious, wonderfully happy scent that he loved.
"I missed you so much!" she cried, muffled. She had buried her head into the crook of his neck, and was trying very hard not to cry, though it wasn't working very well.
"I missed you too Kag. I missed you too."
Pulling her head back so she could see his face, she smiled. His eyes were still had that glowing amber effect and she loved them. He gave her one last squeeze around her middle before letting her go. She backed up a bit, giving him some space.
"When are you going back to America?" she asked. He had never visited before, but maybe something had happened and his father had had to come...?
"Hopefully never. We moved back into our mansion Kag! I'm back for good!" he said, smiling at her startled expression. "What, don't you want me here?"
Gasping, she sputtered rapid disagreements as Inuyasha just laughed at her discomfort. He bent down and grabbed her briefcase off the floor, handing it to her.
"I think we should get to homeroom," he said just as the warning bell went off.
She yelped, thinking she had more time than this. She hurriedly grabbed the books she needed for the first half of the day, stuffing her brief case into her locker. Just as the brown leather rectangle was about to fall out, a clawed hand slammed it shut. He smiled at her, and regally let her lead the way.
"What homeroom are you in Yashie?" asked Kagome.
He pulled out a piece of folded up paper from his pocket, giving it a once over. "Adzuki-sensei," he stated, reading the female teacher's name from the schedule he had gotten from the office.
"Really? That's my teacher too. We should hurry. You don't want to be late to your first day, do you?" asked Kagome happily.
"Nah, I don't need a reputation that bad!" he laughed.
Kagome giggled, pushing open a door on the right side of the hallway.
"Good morning, Higurashi-san. Who's this?" asked a brunette sitting at a desk adjacent to the door. She seemed to be in her late twenties, and had a fun-loving nature.
"Good morning, sensei. This is my best friend, Inuyasha. He's in here," said Kagome as she and Inuyasha bowed. Straightening, Inuyasha handed her the paper from his pocket.
After a lot of "hm" and "ah"-ing, he was allowed to sit down in an empty seat behind Kagome. For the rest of homeroom, they caught up and compared schedules.
---------
"I still can't believe we have the exact same schedule!" exclaimed Kagome happily as Inuyasha followed her to first period: Science.
"Yea, I think Mom had something to do with that," mumbled Inuyasha.
Kagome laughed, remembering Izayoi's 'persuasion' techniques.
Science was boring for both Kagome and Inuyasha. The teacher droned on and on about some boring stuff and then gave them homework on it. That was it.
Everyone sprang up when the bell rung, most practically running out the door. Kagome then made her way through the packed hallway, gracefully dodging people. Though Inuyasha could walk faster then her, he was having a hard time keeping up. He had gone to a small private school in America, and wasn't used to all these people in the hallways. When they reached the end of the hallway, most of the people turned right and walked out into the comfortable fall air. Kagome headed down the hall further, entering one of the two doors at the end of the hallway.
Upon entering, she said, "Ohayo Gin-sensei!"
"Ah, Kagome-chan! How are you? And who's this?" said the middle-aged teacher. She was as all as Kagome with red hair cut short. She was sitting on a desk at the front of the room.
"This is my best friend, Inuyasha. He just moved back to Tokyo," replied Kagome.
"Pleased to meet you, Sensei," said Inuyasha, bowing.
"So formal Inuyasha-kun! It's nice to meet you too!" said Gin happily. "Now, take a seat next to Kagome. She'll explain what we're doing in the class."
Kagome had moved to back of the room and sat in the corner. Inuyasha slid into the seat next to her, slumping.
"Well she's nice. Much better than that science teacher. What was her name again?" asked Inuyasha, looking bored.
"Petri-sensei," stated Kagome, disgusted. "But, whatever. This is Health class. We finished our anti-drug projects, so I guess we'll be starting something new today. If we aren't, I'll help you."
"Alright, thanks Kag."
Something in her heart stirred as he said her name. She was confused. Why did she feel this way toward Inuyasha?
