Disclaimer: I don't feel that it's necessary to say it every chapter but for those who get all happy hearing this I will say it. I don't own Inuyasha and Co.

A/N: Sorry it took me a while to update this time but I was updating 'A Made In Heaven'. I updated it first because I haven't updated that in quite a while. I would like to thank all of my reviewers for being patient with me, or I hope you were patient and NOT making little voodoo dolls to make me fall down the stairs though I did get crash into my desk yesterday. Hmm…I wonder…..

Reviewer's Corner:

HazelEyed Freak: pain relievers for hands… very thoughtful! A cookie would've been nice but now my aching hands can have some relief! Thanks

Shymiko: Kagome will get enough paper, eventually. And you are so right, I was thinking that maybe I will give Sango a huge fly swatter, or even better a hentai swatter. Lol

Shesshy-Slipperz/S.Wooz: Hey, good news! I read your story and its really good even though Inuyasha wasn't mentioned! .:Tears:. I, myself is an Inuyasha fan but it's always good to have a change. And I'm sorry if I couldn't make a sighed review because the link wasn't working but I will later this week or something like that.

I would also like to thank the following reviewers for reviewing: Amped-Chaos, Sarcasm Girl8, F you stalker! (I changed your nick because this is a PG-13 rated story), tyedyequeen, 3rdtimesacharm.

Keeping Track

Sango watched in awe as her friend scribbled in a book that was triple the size of an encyclopedia. Sango was afraid to ask because one, it was Kagome so it could've been like her take over the world book and two never, ever interrupt Kagome when she is in one of her mad scribbling moods. Sango shifted to the other side of Kagome's bed in an attempt to look over her shoulder but failed miserably and her face met Kagome's bedroom floor. This went all unnoticed by Kagome who was still scribbling madly at the book.

" There." Kagome looked fairly pleased as she slammed the book shut with an ear-splitting bang. Sango was curious but you know what they say about curiosity killed the cat. Sango decided to ask because if she didn't it would bug her for the rest of the week.

" Uh…What's the book.." Sango was cut off as Kagome showed her the cover of the book. " Inuyasha…." Sango read carefully not believing her eyes. Did Kagome keep a diary on Inuyasha? Sango always thought that Kagome despised Inuyasha as much as she did with Miroku, which was a lot.

" Kagome, I didn't know you kept a journal on Inuyasha…" Sango said in a suggestive tone as she nudged her friend with her elbow. A tinge of pink surfaced onto Kagome's cheeks as she dropped the heavy book onto her bed. " Yeah, well how else am I supposed to remember all the stuff he does?" Sango was shocked, she was just teasing Kagome but she didn't think Kagome actually stocked him!

" Sango? Are you all right?" She waved her hand in front of her friend's face but Sango didn't reply. Kagome grabbed her CD player off her desk and positioned herself across from Sango. " Let me know when you come back down to earth." With that she slipped on her headphones and let the music on full blast.

It was well into the afternoon when Sango finally snapped back into the world. She looked across from her and saw that her friend was singing at the top of her lungs with her headphones on full blast. " Kagome!" Sango yelled but it was drowned out by the music blasting from the headphones and by Kagome's incredibly loud singing. Sango sighed and pressed stop on her CD player.

Kagome opened one of her eyes and peeked at Sango who was staring at her, wondering why Kagome wasn't deaf from the music yet. " You rang?" Kagome said sarcastically, putting her CD player back onto her desk, or rather throw onto the desk. " Kagome I still can't believe you stalk Inuyasha, of all the people." Sango shook her head in disapproval. " Hey! Who said anything about stalking?" Kagome protested with a pout. " If anything, I would think you stalked Miroku."

The moment those words left Kagome's mouth Sango lunged herself at her. " I hate that guy! How many times do I have to tell you!" Kagome managed to save herself from her grip by suddenly remembering something. " Hey, aren't you supposed to be in detention?" Sango froze, she completely forgot, great now she would have double detention. Well, at least she wouldn't have to spend it with the hentai.

" Anyways…. Let's go back to how you stalk Inuyasha." Kagome pushed the book across the bed; Sango opened the cover and read the first page. " Monday, September, 6; 9:20 am.; Year 1; First day of school: Inuyasha asked me out and I refused. 12:30; Inuyasha dumped vanilla pudding on my hair during lunch. PS: He will pay dearly for this one day." Sango read out loud.

She scanned through a few pages of the book and they were all in the same format as the first one. As she made her way to the middle of the book and the same line kept on turning up. ' He will pay dearly for this one day.' Sango knew all the events that happened so she just skipped to the back of the book, to Kagome's newest entry:

Monday, September 6; 10:20 am:

Year 3; First day of school:

Inuyasha strikes earlier today. I blame myself for not being suspicious when Miroku asked me if I liked syrup. I also blame myself for saying yes. Like everyone else I was grumpy about the first day of school and I totally forgot about Inuyasha. Once again I blame myself. I am beyond humiliated this time and just when I thought that my day was going well.

Like every other time, before he humiliates me he gives me this offer of going out with him and not be humiliated by him anymore. This time however I didn't get the same offer.

This time he asked me to be his girlfriend, this took me by surprise but the shock was only temporary. I asked him why change the offer and he said that it was about time we go steady. Maybe we were living two different lives but I don't remember ever going out with him and I have this giant book to prove it. I don't really think he was serious anyways, he just says it because he knows it gets to me. The worst part is that I don't know why he gets to me so much.

As the usual daily routine goes I refused and he poured 5L of syrup on me from the second floor. Inuyasha is once again taken as the hero for coming up with this prank that has everyone laughing at my expense, as I am labeled the fool for refusing the all mighty Inuyasha.

Any girl would take me for stupid. They often ask me why I refuse Inuyasha. Being Inuyasha's girlfriend is already the best prize a girl could get, as my friends would put it, except Sango. Then again we all know she has the hots for Miroku but we'll talk about that later.

They all know that his pranks really get to me; to them the answer is so simple. Date Inuyasha and solve if all. Here's a list that my friends put together of the pros and cons of dating Inuyasha.

Pro: You get to date Inuyasha, you won't be humiliated anymore, a lot of popularity and you get to date Inuyasha!

Con: There is none! Once again; it's Inuyasha!

They all say that I am insane to refuse Inuyasha but some of them think that it's a great idea. They say that the more I refuse him the more he'll like me and the more popular I get. I really don't get them sometimes but they're my friends so what can I do?

They all talk about him like he's some kind of legend. I mean what is so special about him besides his looks and his rotten attitude? Who wants a boyfriend with white hair anyways? Answer: Air heads at our school, plus my friends. They all talk about him like he's some new must have thing. It's always: Kagome, you have the chance to date The Inuyasha.

But, sometimes I wonder why I refuse him, is it because he's arrogant? Is it because he's selfish? Is it because he's a playboy? I don't really know myself but as the days go by it is becoming more like reflex. Every time he asks I refuse, then he goes and humiliates me for refusing or at least that's what I think. Maybe he just likes making my life miserable.

I guess you could say that this is sort of like our own little tradition only its not so pleasant and I hate him. Well, hate is such a strong word; let's just say I am not very fond of him. After all those years of saying I hate him why would I say any different now you might ask? Let's just say that our little tradition is about to take a turn for the best, for me anyways.

PS: I will repay him for this one day. That day is today.

TBC…

I think I will leave it at that. As some of you might know, I love writing cliffhangers. It just makes the story that much more interesting. I know that Kagome's entry in her giant book is kind of long but it got the job done. Now you know a little bit more about her relationship with Inuyasha and how much influence Inuyasha has on her. This will just make the revenge part so much sweeter.

Now be good little readers and go review. Until next time….
