Chapter Five: Preparations

Kagome was so angry, steam was coming out of her ears. What was Inuyasha's problem! He just came over to where she and Koga were having a nice conversation and piped, "Kagome, I'll kill you if you go out with this pansy, with this whoremonger! He'll use you just to get some action and then discard you like used trading cards! I swear to God, I'll nail you to your bed and lock your house and-"

Kagome had lost it and unleashed her anger, yelling, "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO!"

After her explosion, she had promptly turned a shade of puce and escaped from the library as soon as she could. She really just wanted to run out of the goddamned schoolbuilding and into the secure refuge of her bed. Anger still bubbling within her, she raked her fingers through her hair.

Oh God, she thought, Inuyasha's right. I am falling for Koga again. Damn his charm!

Kagome burrowed her head in her hands as she tried to navigate herself through the school corridors. Why did Koga have that effect on her? She knew she loved Inuyasha, but there was something…magnetic about Koga. Kagome felt it was maybe because she had liked Koga for so long before.

"KAGOME!"

Kagome turned around and nearly cried with relief as she saw her ever loyal best friend jogging up to her. Sango stopped to pant and brush the hair out of her eyes. Kagome knew she was upset and forced a smile so that she didn't bother Sango with her problems.

It didn't work.

"Kag, cut the forced smile shit. What's up with Inuyasha?"

Kagome didn't know it but she and Sango had somehow waddled to the ladies room and Kagome hopped onto the sink's counter before she began her whining.

"Sango, I don't understand it…" she said, tears in her voice, "He flirts with Kikyo all day, treating her as if she's the Princess of Japan, and when someone finally spares a few smiles and caresses for Kagome, the old maid, he gets so annoyed! What's his problem? Does it affect him that someone may actually desire me? If so, he should just tell me. I wouldn't go out with any boy because my all belongs to him! Can't he see that? God, he's such a baka!"

Sango held her best friend as she tried not to cry as she heard of Kagome talk of bakas. It reminded her of her very own baka, who was probably sucking face with a woman right now.

And she was betting her allowance the woman wasn't her.

Sango hugged Kagome closer so they could benefit from the mutual comfort and said, "Well, if this makes you feel better, Kikyo doesn't like Inuyasha at all. She thinks he's really annoying. She's kinda got her eye on Koga."

Kagome expostulated a mirthless laugh and sighed, "Well, if I get Inuyasha, she can have Koga."

Sango gave her friend a forced smile and looked away. That reminded Kagome of Sango's own problem.

"Hey, Sango! What happened anyway? You're so sad."

And Sango began to tell her…

Sesshomaru really wanted to hurt God for killing his parents off and leaving him with Inuyasha. It wasn't that he didn't love Inuyasha, in some twisted way or the other, but more that boy was so dense, he would've turned into a black hole by now.

Even Rin, his wonderful fiance, was fed up. Since he had come home the day before, it was all, What's Kagome's problem? Why is Kagome being a bitch? Why can't she talk to me?

Sesshomaru frowned when he heard Inuyasha's whining voice drift up the stairs. Covering his ears with his hands, he winced.

Inuyasha's whining to Rin was going to cost Sesshomaru some action. The selfish shit.

Sesshomaru and Rin had been trying to carefully construct a plan to get Inuyasha and Kagome together. It was called HIAKWIADLL: How Inuyasha And Kagome Will Inaugarate A Decent Love Life.

That was the only thing they had come up with concerning the plan right now.

But at that moment, when Sesshomaru decided he couldn't stand hearing Inuyasha whine another moment, he noticed a small photograph on his desk. It was that photograph that caused a small, sinister smile to spread across his face. Flipping open his Motorola, Sesshomaru dialed a couple of numbers and waited till someone picked up the mobile on the other end.

"Hi," he said in his deep baritone voice, "This is Sesshomaru. Aunt Kaede, I'm sure you're getting really tired with your charge, right? Well, I have a plan…"

Miroku had never wanted to kill himself as he did right then. Sango had ran out of his house the day before without even letting him explain, and no matter how many timeshe called her, she wouldn't pick up her cellphone. Her mother had been really rude when he had called and her brother, Kohaku had said that Miroku was never going to be able to impregnate a girl after he was done with him.

Miroku rubbed the back of his neck tiredly. He quickly downed a glass of Absolut he had flicked from his parent's bar. He didn't normally drink, but when it involved fights with Sango, it was the only thing that cured his ache.

Just then, Yuko showed up in the living room with a plate full of chocolate chip cookies. Sitting next to him, Yuko placed the plate in front of him. When Miroku looked at her questioningly, she took a deep breath before saying, "Its to thank you, and apologize for driving out your girlfriend earlier."

Miroku took a deep breath and redirected his gaze to the ceiling. "It doesn't matter, Yuko-chan. The minute I tell Sango you're my ex-girlfriend, she's gonna lose it."

Yuko looked at Miroku piteously and said, "What if you told her that I was your cousin as well? I am, you know. And I don't mind if you tell her about my…circumstances."

Miroku smiled tenderly at Yuko before leaning over and kissing her softly on the cheek, "You're a good person, Yuko-chan. But you see, I haven't exactly been one hundered per cent faithful to Sango. I mean, I touch other women's asses all the time, and Sango puts up with it. Now, in her eyes, its just that my fetish for hot ladies has risen another notch. And I don't think she is willing to hang around and see how high its going to go."

Yuko smiled before threading her fingers in Miroku's hair. Smiling she said, "That's why I'm here. I'll be able to clear up this mess. I promise you, I'll do everything in my power to get you two back together."

Miroku was touched and elated. He felt nothing could ruin this happy moment and he leaned forward to hug his cousin.

However, when he hugged her, he didn't notice the fingers that were crossed behind her back.
