"KAGOME, SOUTA! YOUR RIDE IS HERE!" Kagome's mother yelled over her shoulder from the open front door before returning her attention to the man standing outside, sliding her hand down his chest. "My, my you are a rather handsome man. You and my daughter Kikyo will make a wonderful family." Mrs. Higurashi finally stepped to the side letting Inuyasha walk inside the house. He stopped to wait, right inside the door, for his two passengers.
"Ma'am, I'm not sure if Kikyo and I will still be together then. Don't get me wrong, I love her, but things can change." Mrs. Higurashi looked at him blankly, as though she didn't even hear him, before yelling for her two kids again.
"Mom, I'm right here." Kagome stated, walking out of the kitchen, and into the hallway to stand next to Inuyasha and wait for her brother. Inuyasha couldn't help but look her up and down, his jaw dropped at her beauty. She was wearing an off white blouse that hung from one shoulder to her mid upper arm, with an extra piece of cloth hanging over, it was outlined in lace. To add to her outfit, she was wearing a black laced skirt that went to the middle of her thigh and there was a light pink cloth rose in her hair above her right ear. Kagome blushed under his stare, not being able to hide it, making her appear even more attractive to Inuyasha. Her mother decided then to walk away, shaking her head, as she mumbled something about how ridiculous Kagome had looked and how she was embarrassing her in front of company.
"What are you all dressed up for?" Inuyasha scoffed, trying to play it off that he didn't care. When really, it was irritating him that she looked drop-dead gorgeous, and it wasn't for him. Well he was damn sure it wasn't for him. Kagome couldn't help fiddling with the hem of her skirt, from feeling slightly anxious, as she stood there.
"I have a date after detention Dogboy. I don't have time to come home and change, so he is picking me up after detention." Kagome angrily, yet confusingly, looked up towards Inuyasha, who was right next to her. "Why am I telling you this and why do you care?" She spat at him, crossing her arms and looking in the opposite direction from the hanyou; only to spot Souta running into the kitchen. Kagome assumed her brother was grabbing a poptart, since he was running late and didn't get the chance to eat breakfast.
"I don't care," Inuyasha crossed his arms and raised his head in the opposite direction from her, "and just so you know, it doesn't help. You still look like an ugly wench." He smirked returning his glare to the angry girl standing next to him. Souta came running out of the kitchen just then, stopping in front of the two, looking back and forth between Kagome and Inuyasha. Souta stopped and gave Inuyasha doubtful look.
"Inuyasha, you don't mean that. Let's get going I cannot be late again or I'll have detention." Souta grabbed both Kagome and Inuyasha's arms, pulling them out the door behind him, and to the car. Reaching the front of the car, Souta let go of their arms, running to the passenger side, and getting in the back as the other two followed getting into the front seats. After a few minutes of driving, and Souta finishing his poptart, Souta leaned forward to talk to Kagome and to break the silence that was currently engulfing the car. "You know Kagome; you keep dressing like that you'll put Kikyo to shame." Kagome blushed and waved her hand at him.
"Oh, just stop Souta. I will not." Kagome quietly squeaked out, sliding down in her seat trying to disappear into it.
"Well, you will be drawing a lot of attention to yourself today." Kagome's eyes grew slightly wide as she looked over at Inuyasha surprised, trying to decide if he had given her a compliment. Her being surprised didn't go unnoticed by the hanyou. "Keh. I'll have to keep my eye on you to make sure you don't get into any trouble. We all know you attract it." Kagome's surprised look turned into a glare and she whipped her head to look out the window, just as they pulled up next to Souta's school.
"I don't need protection and that was just a bad first day. Not another word on that subject." Kagome spat at the boy driving before turning around to the backseat giving her brother a genuine smile. "Goodbye Souta have fun in school. I'll have Hojo pick you up on my way home from our date, okay?"
"Inuyasha can't just pick me up?" Souta hopefully asked as he gathered his things.
"No, I would rather not bother him again today." Souta's face fell, the usual smile placed there was gone.
"Just get dropped off at my house, I'll take you both home. We all win." Inuyasha looked over to Kagome from the corner of his eye, waiting for her approval of his suggestion. Souta was repeating please over and over to his sister, hands clasped in front of him, until she finally gave in and her eyes.
"Fine. Now go before you're late." Souta pumped his fist into the air and gave his sister a quick kiss on her cheek before happily jumping out of the car. Running into the building as fast as his feet would take him, and was thankful that he had his book, for his first class, with him already.
"You have a cell phone?" Kagome watched Souta go into the school before turning to look at Inuyasha.
"Um. No. Only Kikyo does. She's also the only one who has a license too." She looked down at her feet, her face showing her disappointment.
"Here. It's a spare." Inuyasha held out the small flip phone towards his passenger, never taking his eyes off the road in front of him. "I give it to Rin normally, but she left it in my car last time I drove her home. If you need me to come get you, someone threatens you, or you get attacked let me know. Also when Hobo goes to drop you off let me know." Kagome rolled her eyes and took the phone placing it into her bag.
"His name is Hojo by the way. Seems like my name isn't the only one you have problems remembering."
"It's not that I can't remember them, I just don't want to." Kagome looked at him a little hurt before she shook it off remembering that Inuyasha was her sister's boyfriend, and he wasn't even her friend. A few silent minutes later Inuyasha pulled into the school and parked in his normal spot. As Kagome got out of the car, everyone gave her a dirty look.
"Why me?" Kagome asked before being almost knocked over by one of her friends.
"Well, well, well, why are you so fancy pants-y?" Sango asked stepping back and poking at the flower in Kagome's hair.
"She has a date with Hobo." The group looked at Inuyasha confusion written on their faces. Inuyasha crossed his arms as he explained himself to the group, "Wench, was bragging about it."
"I was not! You asked, I told you I had a date. I only told Souta that Hojo would pick him up." Kagome crossed her arms practically hissing at him as she spoke.
"Hm. Well when did this happen?" Ayame asked putting her arm around Kagome's shoulders, pulling her away from everyone, towards the building.
"Well, I'll have to tell you later. I really have to get going. I'm not gonna get detention again by being late today." With that said Kagome started to run the rest of the way into the school and straight for her first class. Before she left school yesterday she had made sure to grab her first hour book, just in case she was running late to school, as it turned out it was a good thing she did. She had set up a fool proof plan, just so she'd never get detention again. While in class Sango had passed her notes and she didn't read them until after class. Her plan had been working so far, she had avoided trouble all the way up until lunch and she was beaming with happiness that she did.
"So, I see that someone has been having a good day." Miroku stated before shoving a tater tot covered in ketchup into his mouth. He was slightly bummed because nobody would let him sit next to Kagome. They were all afraid he'd try something.
"Yup I have. I haven't gotten into any trouble, and my date tonight is getting closer and closer by the hour." Kagome beamed at the group sitting at the table all eating their lunches they had just bought. She only had a bottle of water, she didn't want to eat anything and accidentally get something on her outfit before her date. Inuyasha walked up and sitting down, next to Kagome, at their table and everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him, surprised.
"Kikyo isn't in school today." Inuyasha sighed as he started to take small bites of his food so he could continue to talk, "I don't know what's going on with her, but I thought it'd be refreshing to sit by my friends for once." Inuyasha looked up towards Kagome, glaring past her, and quietly growled so that no one could hear him.
"Well there's no other reason for you to be here." Kouga crossed his arms, he was also rather angry because they wouldn't let him sit by Kagome either. "My woman doesn't like halfbreeds." Ayame hit Koga on the back of his head and Kagome squirted him with her water bottle. Inuyasha's growl and glare was now directed to the wolf demon rubbing the back of his head.
"I don't like halfbreeds or demons. I'm into just normal, plain, ordinary humans." Kagome turned towards Kouga, anger radiating off her. "Oh, and I'm not your woman. I'm not anyone's woman. What is with you men acting like we women are a piece of property? Gah. Hojo is nothing like you three, that is why I said yes to going on a date with him." Inuyasha huffed at her and rolled his eyes, losing his appetite to eat.
"Yeah, whatever Wench." Inuyasha scoffed crossing his arms, while continuing to watch the man sitting a few tables behind Kagome out of the corner of his eye.
"I do not need you to spoil my good mood!" Kagome stood up and stormed out of the cafeteria tossing her water bottle in the trash can by the door. Everyone at the table shrugged it off, well everyone but Inuyasha. He had also noticed that somebody else left the cafeteria, right after Kagome. He was about to get up to follow the girl, but the bell rang, declaring to them to head to their next class. Grunting, Inuyasha got up and went straight to his class barely making it before the tardy bell rang. After the teacher was distracted with teaching on the chalk board, he took out his cell phone under his desk and started a text.
'r u ok'
.~*~*~
Kikyo grunted as she rolled over and woke completely up. She loved being able to not care for her sister and brother for once. She checked her phone and noticed she had a couple texts and began to read them. She slipped her feet into a pair of slippers on her way out of the room and proceeded into the kitchen grabbing herself a cup of coffee. Kikyo smiled a smile that some would consider evil, placed her phone down on the counter, and sipped down some of the coffee. She loved the warmth feel of the liquid flowing down her throat. She didn't want to reply to her worried boyfriend, she didn't really care at the moment. She was just happy to be alone for once; to be able to relax.
.~*~*~
"Whose phone is going off? Turn it off now." Kagome looked around trying to find out where the sound was coming from. Thinking to herself about how sorry she felt for them, knowing the principal he would give them a weeks detention to the poor student. She looked up at the teacher as he stood right next to her desk looking right at her patting his fingers on his arms, which were crossed.
"What?" Kagome asked annoyed. She didn't even own a phone so why was he looking at her as though she was the one at fault?
"Turn off your phone, Ms. Higurashi."
"I don't own a phone!" Kagome stood up pushing her chair out behind her, slamming her hands on her desk. "The only one who owns a phone, in my family, is my sister. So don't go acting like it is me who has a phone. God, can't you ever just stop picking on students for no reason!" The teacher reached down and grabbed her bag and held it up. It was playing a tune, which was rather long, and Kagome hit her palm to her forehead. How could she forget that Inuyasha gave her a phone for after her date? Someone must have known the number because someone else uses it often. Kagome smiled up at the teacher and rubbed her arm out of embarrassment. "Oh that, I can explain."
"Office." Kagome's head fell as she gathered her things and left the room. Once she was out in the hallway she opened the phone and read the text that had ruined her day. After she read it she glared at the phone and messaged back.
'No im not ok u just got me n2 trouble' Kagome decided to turn the phone onto silence, before she forgot, and a couple seconds later it vibrated in her hand. She opened it and read the text from the evil hanyou himself.
'wench not my fault u shoulda put it on vib' Kagome just glared at it for a second before hiding it away and entering the office. Once again it was packed full of people. Luckily for her a chair had just opened up after she walked in and she sat down taking out 'the book' to begin writing while she waited.
~Dear hell hole book,
Today sucks so far. It was going all fine and dandy then all of a sudden bam! Dogboy had to go and ruin it. I can't do anymore detention time, it looks bad on your school record. It's all because he just HAD to give me a cell phone. Why you ask? I'll tell you. All because of yesterday being a really bad first day, this stupid dogboy thinks I'm going to get into trouble all the time now. He's just like the teachers here! Bleh. I have no clue what has gotten into him. He just seems to be over protective today. Who cares though, right?
Kikyo, is MIA. Not Mia but Missing In Action. She didn't show up to school. My parents won't mind one bit… in fact the school has probably have called home and my parents have already told them she was sick. She gets away with EVERYTHING. Like literately she could kill someone and they'd do everything they could to cover it up and say she is and will always be their perfect daughter. Gets kind of sickening after a while.
I swear if my pocket vibrates one more time I'm going to rip some little Dogboy's throat out. I am in enough trouble as is. At first his little attempt to protect me was cute… but now, now he is just down straight annoying. He didn't like the fact he couldn't watch me constantly in class. Alrighty I understand that Naraku guy is a bad egg, but really is he that bad that if I look nice one day you have to watch me every second of every hour and if you can't text me every five minutes? Ugh. I'll just reassure him that Naraku is not here maybe he'll stop texting me. If he don't then some screw has went lose or this whole school if full of dangerous people.
Then again it might just be. Just about ten percent of this school is demons, or at least ones you can tell are demons. Who knows maybe Naraku is in a gang and his gang buddies will get me. Or maybe Inuyasha is an unfaithful bastard and is just making up lame excuses of why I need him to follow me around at school and why I need a cell phone. I seriously don't see how anyone could get me with him around. Maybe it'd be different if Kikyo was here, but since this morning he has been walking me to class and making sure I can't get away after and out of his sight. Well that was until lunch, first time not having him follow me around. Bleh. Maybe this is why Kikyo isn't here, because her little puppy is suffocating her and she just needed a break. Wouldn't surprise me.
Well time for me to go into the office and get my many, many more detentions. Woohoo. Not.~
