Chapter 11: Ideas for the Halloween festival

A month had passed and it was now mid October. Kagome had visited her family and Jakotsu every week-end since she started in Fukuoka, and enjoyed being a girl in those times where she could do girly things with Sango, such as shopping and chatting about boys and the latest news. Sango updated her on things that were going on in Kurin High, for example who was dating who, all the gossip that was probably going on now that she left that school. She loved spending time with her parents, especially since she felt hurt and broken inside lying to them about her time in Kurin. She hated lying but...she had no choice. However that still didn't stop her from enjoying the short time she had with them, however eventually the week-ends were over, and Kagome went back to training with Inuyasha in the mornings, to tricking Koga whenever she could, and spending time with Hojo and Kohaku every now and then. She had seen Shippo and Kirara more often as they all went to the café, on occassion they would unfortunately bump into Kikyo.

Kagome clapped loudly and cheered as she was right now sitting on the bleachers her body relaxed as she was taught. She was cheering for Inuyasha as she saw him dribble and run across from one side to the other in an instant before throwing it to Miroku who was protecting the ball as Inuyasha ran near the goal, Miroku saw this and threw it to him, members from the other team trying to catch it but it was too fast and once he had a hold of it he turned and jumped dunking the ball into the basket. Kagome stood up and put her hands around her mouth as she cheered loudly for her room-mate "Wooo hooo!" Kagome put her hands down from her mouth and clapped loudly. Kagome had started to watch his after school training since she didn't want to be stuck in the dorms waiting for him, and because both her and Inuyasha had gotten much closer in the last month that she wanted to let him know she'd support him no matter what. It was two months until the first basketball match in the championships and training was everyday from 4:00 to 6:00.

Inuyasha turned around to the noise and smiled as he waved at Kazuki who waved back at him just as happily. Inuyasha loved seeing Kazuki always there cheering him on, and knowing that those were only for him. For some reason he couldn't understand why whenever Kazuki was here, he's push himself to the maximum to show off to his room-mate. Without realising it many times he would run faster than usual or needed, he would jump higher when he was scoring, he mainly kept the ball to himself, and always loved to hear Kazuki's cheering and show of encouragement as he had just done now. Inuyasha ran towards his room-mate with a big smile on his face.

Kagome saw inuyasha come over and jumped down from the bleachers and grabbed Inuyasha's towel and water bottle, when she then saw him right in front of her. Kagome smiled as outstretched her hand with the items "That was awesome! Amazing as always" Kagome complimented.

Inuyasha smiled as he scratched the back of his head feeling his body warm up at his room-mates words, he then nodded and grabbed the towel wrapping it around his neck before grabbing the bottle of water and opening the bottle downing half a litre of the 1 litre bottle. Inuyasha closed the bottle and smirked "Thanks, are you sure you don't mind being here, I mean you won't see much just the same old style over and over again. You can go if you want" 'Even I like you being here'

Kagome shook her head and smiled "No, your my friend, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be able to have fit in so well in this school. You are my friend and just as you supported me a month ago, I am supporting you now. plus I like being here with you guys, rather be here and have free entertainment" Kagome said smirking.

Inuyasha chuckled and bowed "I hope I am entertaining you well" Inuyasha joked before hearing the other's nearing.

Kagome smiled "I am very much enjoying the entertainment thank you"

"Which part entertains you the most shorty" Inuyasha said, wishing he could swallow his words, and decided he'd do just that, he swallowed down some more water as he tried to look anywhere else but Kazuki.

Kagome blushed a little as she heard his question, but before she could answer Miroku and Koga came up behind Inuyasha "Hey that was some sick as jump man, you need to do that more often" Koga said wrapping his arm around Inuyasha's shoulder. Kagome kept her blush as she looked at the ground rethinking about Inuyasha's question. Kagome bit her tongue as she thought long and hard about it. To be honest, ever since that day of the 'Gala Festival' Kagome couldn't help but, but yearn to look at him, for him to notice her. She felt as if she wanted to be as close to him as she possibly could, knowing that the closest she could get t him was by being friends. Ever since that conversation with Jakotsu, Kagome had thought long and hard for days hell even weeks, and trying to piece together just what this feeling was, this need to be near him, to have him notice her even if she was under the façade of a male, she wanted him to see her, she wanted them to be as close at they possibly could. I guess you could say she wanted closure, she knew herself that deep down no matter how much she denied it, there was a crush building up towards Inuyasha. Every time he would hug her or ruffle her hair-wig-she would always feel warmth build up in her stomach and her heart would beat rapidly, electricity shocking throughout her whole body. Oh how she wished multiple times he saw her as a Kagome rather than Kazuki. The more time she seemed to spend with him, the more she felt them getting closer, and the more she felt her fondness and...crush strengthening for him. Whenever she saw Koga she didn't feel any love, any passion, or to be quite frank any anger, she took it out multiple times, by dumping water in his gym bag soaking his clothes before they had practice, in his book bag so it soaked all his books, and even went as far as pinching the tires of his truck. However after so much vandalism to the guys life in general, she lost any feelings towards him and the only thing that lived in her heart now was mild anger. Kagome didn't pay attention to the conversation but all of a sudden she saw all three of them taking of their shirts.

Kagome bit her bottom lip as she studied Inuyasha's chest. God did he look godly. His shoulders were so broad, so perfect to hold, his biceps were not as pronounced as a body builder, but god so close to one, they glistened with sweat from the practice only a few minutes ago, which caused Kagome to hold in a groan. She then looked further down and noticed how his abs were perfectly tight and visibly showed off an outstanding six-pack. 'Must be from all the exercise he does. Holy macorel' Kagome hated to admit it, but just as she was gaining forbidden feelings for her room-mate, she was also getting lusty, and her dreams plagued her with thoughts of running her hands down his chest and towards his hips that made a V shape, leaving the rest to her imagination. Many times she would wake up at night, her body giving of waves of lust and arousal, she was surprised how Inuyasha could sleep through all of it. She would sit up and take deep breaths as she tried to calm her rapidly beating heart. God she hated to admit it, but she was sexually frustrated multiple times, and the only person that always came uninvited into her dreams was the certain silver-haired amber eyes god in front of her. Was she seriously falling for him? If she was, she had to stop. She couldn't, more so for herself. She didn't want to get too attached to him as anything other than close friends, because the day she had to leave she didn't want to have to suffer another broken heart.

It's just like Jakotsu said. Why would she waste her time going to his school to get revenge from her broken heart, only to come out with another one. That's why Kagome tried her best to retain any feelings other than friendship towards Inuyasha. She then felt her hair being ruffled and snapped out of her reverie.

Inuyasha smirked "You okay shorty you seemed like you were in a daze"

Kagome shook her head and smiled up at him "No I'm fine. So what we going to do now?"

Inuyasha shrugged and looked back at Koga and Miroku "What do you guys want to do, do you want to go and eat or order take away?"

Miroku put his hand on his chin in thought and "Might as well get take out and watch a lot of porn"

Kagome laughed when both Koga and Inuyasha bonked him on the head at the same time. Koga shook his head "You never learn do you"

Miroku grinned and Kagome smiled. Inuyasha nodded "Okay then we'll get take out, how about you guys come to our dorm and we can watch some movies or something"

Both Miroku and Koga looked at each other and shrugged as they smiled "Why not. We'll see you then man"

Inuyasha nodded and high-fived both of them before turning to Kagome, who kept her smile as she looked at him. 'God his amber eyes are amazing' Kagome thought.

Inuyasha bumped his shoulder against her's snapping her out of her day-dream. "Yo come on man, we need to prepare for when the guys come over" Kagome turned around to see both Miroku and Koga were gone. Kagome kept looking around and Inuyasha laughed. "They already left shorty, you were in your own world" Kagome blushed hearing what he said. Inuyasha noticed the awkwardness between them both and decided to lighten up the ambiance again. "How about we pick out a few movies I have in my stack and start ordering we'll make the other bastards pay for their share" Inuyasha winked "Okay"

Kagome almost melted as she saw that smirk of his. Her eyes however diverted to his chest remembering he was still shirtless.

Inuyasha took his stare as a slightly bad sign. He looked down and sighed "I know I need to work them out again, it's been a while"

Kagome blushed at being caught in her wavering, and quickly digested his words before raising both her hands and shaking her head. "N-No they...'cough' t-they aren't b-bad. Th-They're actually...uh...okay" 'G-Good job Kagome. You deserve the noble prize for the best bullshiter in the fucking world'

Inuyasha was a little confused but felt the heat in his chest come back and he just brushed it off as the heat from the gym that was taking an effect on him. "W-Well let's get going shorty" he said smirking before ruffling Kazuki's hair once more and running of. "Come on shorty, the last person in the dorm has to clean up!"

Kagome smiled as she ran after him "Not so fast mr. arrogant!"

Inuyasha laughed and both Kagome and him started racing to their dorm.

"Okay so that's everything, we've cleaned up, prepared the TV now to pick out the films" Kagome said as she wiped her forehead with the sleeve of her black cardigan.

Inuyasha was in a spare little room for storage as he was picking out the best films. She saw him lean back on one arm, his hair loose and laying gently over one shoulder, his other hand holding a saw DVD. "Yeah don't worry I'm searching, hey you like horror, gore or comedy?" Inuyasha asked looking at al the DVD'S.

Kagome froze quickly for a moment. She felt a shiver run through her body, god did she hate horror and gore. Sango was in love with them, but she never had a fancy with them. Mainly because she watched one when she was younger, and had nightmares for the rest of the night as she kept seeing clowns with their necks snapped and a red balloon in their hand as they grinned evilly at her, with a knife in the other dripping blood. God did she HATE HATE HATE HATE HAAAATE horror and gore. "U-Uh c-c-comedy if you don't mind"

Inuyasha chuckled "Aww shorty can't handle scary movies?"

Kagome sighed "Unfortunately I can't. Had bad memories when I was younger"

Inuyasha nodded and smiled "Well that's fine we'll watch one horror because Miroku and me love them, and then we'll watch a comedy. Sound good?"

Kagome smiled and nodded "Okay I'm just going to tidy up the kitchen a little and take out the drinks from the freezer into the fridge so they don't explode" Kagome said smiling.

Inuyasha nodded and walked out of the room to set both DVD's that he had chosen on the table.

When Kagome took out the drinks she somehow miscalculated and slipped on the newly mopped floor, however before she could feel an impact she felt two strong arms wrap around her. She opened and her closed eyes as she saw worry in amber eyes that were staring down at her. "Are you okay? You need to be careful" Inuyasha scolded.

Kagome sighed and nodded "Thanks" Kagome blushed realising that he still had his arms wrapped around her. Inuyasha seemed to notice too and brought him up before scratching the back of his neck and clearing his throat. Kagome kept her little blush until both of them heard two knocks on the door and Inuyasha quickly ran to the door before opening it and seeing Miroku and Koga with cans of beer in their hands. Kagome frowned 'So much for the drinks I practically almost risked my life for' Kagome sighed and walked over to them.

"Hola mi amigo's. See what I did there, I added the 's' to make it two people" Miroku explained.

Inuyasha fisted his hand and bonked Miroku on the head "Seriously monk I dropped a language course last year, do not make me have to put you in a coma for the rest of the night"

Miroku chuckled nervously and turned to Kazuki and gave a wide smile "Hola mi amigo" Kagome chuckled in her manly voice before nodding towards him and grabbing the beer from his arms and placing them on the kitchen counter.

Koga entered and walked over to the kitchen to put his boxes of beers down onto the table. "Hey, need any help there?" Koga asked as he saw Kazuki trying to manage too many cans at once.

Kagome sighed and nodded "Thanks" Kagome then saw him smile and she gave a fake smile back before handing him some cans. Inuyasha saw from a distance as Miroku was talking to him, and his eyes were glaring a little at the back of Koga's head. 'Why doesn't he come to me for help, why to Koga. Wait? Am I jealous of my best friend? Fuck no!' Inuyasha shook his head and clapped his hands together. "Okay guys enough of this, let's start the night okay it's a Wednesday meaning we only have 3 hours before lights out."

Everybody in the room nodded and Inuyasha showed them both the films he had "Okay the exorcist or season 7 of the big bang theory. Which first?"

Mioku chose the exorcist as did Koga and Inuyasha, meaning Kagome had no choice but to handle a film she tried so hard to by-pass. Kagome groaned a little as she saw him put the DVD in. Inuyasha grabbed the remote and before he pressed play he grabbed the phone. "Okay guys, I'm ordering pizza or Chinese which one?"

"Chinese" Miroku and Koga said at the same time.

Inuyasha turned to his room-mate "Is Chinese okay with you?" Kagome nodded as she smiled. Chinese was one of her favourite meals. Inuyasha nodded and dialled the number ordering practically nearly everything on the menu. However since there was two demons that have just done physical exercise they'd be eating like no tomorrow, and with two humans who in the room, they would be able to eat the whole menu. Inuyasha then pressed play as he took of the lights, making the atmosphere even more eerie. Kagome took a deep breath before seeing the screen fade to black with the first clip of the film starting. Since there was two sofa's, Kagome was sitting on one sofa with Inuyasha next to her and Miroku on the other, Koga was in the separate sofa laying down. The film was only a quarter way through and Kagome unconsciously snuggling closer to Inuyasha as time passed, she kept covering her eyes every now and then when the girl was slowly getting possessed by the demons. Kagome's heart was beating fast and she had chicken skin no to mention her appetite was diminishing as the movie went on. Inuyasha who was drinking his beer unfazed by the scenes so far, felt Kazuki move closer to him, and he smiled internal. 'He is really scared' Inuyasha looked down and saw that he was trying not to cover his eyes and that his skin was a little cold and he could visibly smell his fright, and his body was urging him to comfort his friend, and as the girl was getting more possessed he could feel Kazuki scooting closer and closer every time. Inuyasha looked from the corner of his eyes and saw Kazuki's eyes widen as he bit his bottom lip. Inuyasha couldn't help but think that the action was so like him.

Kagome started to hear screams from the film and turned to see Miroku and Inuyasha unfazed as they drank their beer, she then turned to see Koga and noticed he was texting someone before looking at the film. Was she seriously the only one who can't stand horror films. Soon there was a knock on the door and Kagome almost jumped out of her skin as she bit back the urge to scream. Inuyasha got the remote and paused the film on the scene where she had a crucifix in her hand and was about to put it in a place that was definitely made Kagome wince. Inuyasha then came back with the food. "Sorry guys, cause there was so much food the delivery took longer than expected plus it needed to pass school inspection in the office before sending it up" Miroku and Koga started to dig into their egg fried rice, and sweet and sour chicken, and Inuyasha dunked into the vegetarian spring roles and chao main noodles, whilst Kagome's stomach felt like she wanted to throw up as soon as Inuyasha restarted the film. Kagome closed her eyes and wanted to block the cries and screams of the girl.

Soon the film was over. Inuyasha stood up to switch on the lights, Kagome turned quickly already knowing that she would have nightmares for the rest of the night. Inuyasha smiled "Well how about some comedy now" Miroku and Koga nodded as they finished the last of the food. Kagome had only eaten a little since the film had put her off Chinese. However she still had a whole plastic tub of egg fried rice and sweet and sour chicken Hong Kong style and some vegetarian spring rolls in her plate.

Inuyasha turned to his room-mate, his eyes worried as his smile turned into a frown "Aren't you hungry shorty, you barely touched your food"

Kagome's eyes widened "I don't know how you three ate through that, it put me of food big time"

Koga nodded "Yeah my ex was scared of horror films, she hated gore too"

Kagome froze a little "O-Oh was she now. Well my girlfriend loves them, yet I can't stand them"

Inuaysha smiled "So you jump in Sango's arms instead of hers in yours"

Kagome smirked and shrugged "Pretty much, we act like friends as well as a couple, it's good to be both then you aren't awkward around each other. She never judged me" 'Well it's not a total lie, she is my best friend after all and kind of like a couple since we are always glued together. And I do love her as a sister off course.'

Inuyasha nodded "That's true. Well time to put on Big Bang before lights out don't ya think?"

Everybody nodded and Kagome sighed happily as she heard the theme song. Funny enough the exorcist took Kagome out of her appetite, where as in big bang they were eating Chinese making her gain her appetite again. 'Weird' she kept laughing along with Inuyasha and the rest of the gang, and before they knew it, it hit 9:02 and Miroku and Koga were getting ready to leave.

"Okay mi amigo we shall see you tomorrow" Miroku said as he stretched his arms above his head and yawned. Kagome laughed at the loud yawn and Inuyasha rolled his eyes.

Koga also yawned and threw an empty beer can in the bin. "Well see you all tomorrow, oh and we have assembly first thing don't forget."

Inuyasha nodded "Now worries thanks man, see you tomorrow"

Once they left, Inuyasha and Kagome turned to see bags and bags of Chinese, plastic tubs and rice boxes every where with chopsticks here and there, some of the sauces were on the table, empty beer cans. Both sighed and both students decided to break the share equally, so Kagome was in charge of the tidying up the living room and Inuyasha was in charge of the dishes.

"I'm sorry shorty for making you watch through a horror" Inuyasha said, feeling guilty about scaring his friend.

Kagome shook her head "No it's fine, honestly I know you like horror, this is your room as well"

Inuyasha smiled and carried on tidying up. Soon after the dishes and the tidying up were done, Inuyasha jumped on the top bunk of the bed and Kagome walked over to the bottom one. Once she took of her cardigan and changed quickly from her jeans to her sweat trousers she heard Inuyasha speak "Night shorty"

Kagome swallowed a little in fight after he took of the light "G-Good night" Kagome tried her best not to make her voice waver, but she couldn't help it, after watching that film she could hear the screams and the psychotic laughs. Whenever a shadow moved from the curtain she would lift up her duvet and grip it tightly so it reached her nose, thinking it would keep her safe. She closed her eyes and when she did the sounds were harsher, Kagome kept turning this way and that, but she couldn't sleep. 'God I hate horror films' Kagome whimpered a little as she heard weird sounds from the dorms and the outside. Kagome shut her eyes tightly as she tried hard not to scream. God at these time she always slept in the same bed as Sango to keep the nightmares away. Kagome bit her bottom lip as strands from her wig were on her eyelashes, all her moving seemed to have brushed her hair everywhere. Kagome looked up at the top bed, and contemplated whether to probably ask if she could stay with him for the night. But then she remembered that she was a boy and boys never held each other, not like girl's.

Kagome just shook her head and closed her eyes trying her best to sleep, however that didn't stop her from every now and then releasing a little whimper of fright. She thought by hiding under the covers made her quiet, not knowing that a certain hanyou could hear.

Inuyasha was almost asleep until he heard his room-mate whimper and whine, not to mention the mattress was moving a lot meaning he couldn't get into a decent position. Was he having a nightmare? Or was that his imagination? Inuyasha heard another whimper and knew that it wasn't his imagination this time, Kazuki was having nightmares and he closed his eyes once before opening them again and as he bent over the railing of the top bunk, he contemplated whether to comfort him. For some reason his body was begging him, yearning him to comfort his friend, but guys didn't hug, they never...cuddled. Inuyasha sighed once and as he tried to go back to bed, he heard another whimper and he cursed under his breath before jumping down. When he saw his friend quivering practically hidden under the duvet. He sighed heavily and rubbed the back of his neck lookign around thinking that maybe this wasn't a good idea. He heard his friend whine a little and before he knew it his body had pulled him to the bed.

Inuyasha sat down on the edge and slowly outstretched his hand so it rested on his room-mate's shoulder. Once he touched his shoulder gently he felt Kazuki's form loosen and his whimper's were dying down considerably. Inuyasha blew out a sigh of relief however as he was about to get up he felt a hand on his wrist. His eyes widened a little and when he turned around he saw Kazuki's eyes slightly open "Don't go" was all he said before he saw him close his eyes again with a small smile on his lips. Inuyasha looked down at the miniature hand around his wrist, and sighed again knowing he had no choice. Either he gave in to his body and kept him company, or listened to his mind and go to his own bed. Inuyasha tried to move but felt Kazuki's hand tighten and knowing he had no choice, he was about to do something he never had done before. He was going to comfort a guy. Oh boy if he knew.

Kagome felt the other side of her bed lower and not knowing what it was she closed her eyes tightly. However she then felt warmth on her back and realised who it could have been. Did he actually listen to her? Kagome turned around and saw Inuyasha with his eyes closed and his head tilted to the other side slightly as both arms were behind his head. Kagome turned around fully and got a bit closer, risking it, good god was she risking it, but she really didn't feel that she could fall asleep so easily after that film. However she wasn't disappointed as she felt his arms gently wrap around her. Kagome's eyes widened for a moment before she smiled and went to sleep.

Inuyasha was a little groggy as he opened his eyes slowly, he groaned a little and breathed in a yawn and as he stretched he felt weight on his chest. He opened his eyes again and saw Kazuki's head on his chest, whilst both his hands were under his chin. Inuyasha saw one of his arms around him and the other behind his head. Inuyasha blushed at the unmany gesture and quickly stood up, causing Kazuki to hit his bed on the pillow waking him up.

Kagome felt her head fall and she groaned a little at the loss of heat that she was enjoying. She opened her eyes a little and squinted them as she saw a fuzzy figure in front of her. She closed her eyes once more before opening them, the fuzziness slowly disappearing to create a picture of her room-mate. Kagome sat up and rubbed her forehead. "Morning" Kagome said groanng a little. She turned to Inuyasha and saw him fidgeting as he moved around the apartment.

"M-Morning shorty" Inuyasha said quietly.

Kagome tilted her head to the side in confusion at his behaviour before remembering last night. She blushed and hid her eyes behind the bangs of her wig.

Inuyasha noticed this and could smell his embarrassment "Um, y-you sleep w-well?" he didn't why he was stuttering, other than he was really very nervous, again he didn't know why.

Kagome nodded and stood up slowly "Y-Yeah I did. Thank you"

Inuyasha just nodded his head as he zipped up his black hoodie on top of his white wife beater, he then put on his black trainers underneath is grey sweat trousers. "Well come on shorty we need to do some training before assembly starts" Inuyasha said trying to forget about last night.

Kagome nodded and quickly changed into her black sweat trousers, and she went to the bathroom to change her shirt from a grey one to a white plain normal top, then tried to fix her wig, she then walked out and saw Inuyasha in the kitchen filling up two bottles of water. "Hey, grab a cardigan it's getting colder now"

Kagome nodded and grabbed her black hoodie also and put her black and white trainers. Once she was done she stood up and looked up to see Inuyasha throw he a bottle of water. She caught it in time, and saw Inuyasha smirk "You've gotten better shorty, last month I threw the cereal bar and you missed, but your reflexes are getting better. Nice work."

Kagome smirked back "It's because I have a great coach"

Inuyasha felt pride swell in his chest at that comment and walked to the door the smirk never fading "Come on shorty we got work to do"

Kagome walked out the door and waited as Inuyasha locked it. Inuyasha cursed under his breath as he forgot the duffel bag and unlocked the door again to grab the bag. Finally after grabbing what they forgot they went to the field, where Kagome was shivering. Inuyasha was a demon but he also had to admit that the chilly weather was doing good at numbing the body. Inuyasha turned to Kazuki, knowing he was human which meant he would feel the cold much more than himself. "Well shorty start running and try to beat your time this time its 20 laps, running will warm you up"

Kagome nodded and jogged on the spot a bit before running to the white line that was painted on the ground. Kagome stretched one leg behind her as the other was propped up and her knee was touching her chest, she had both her hands spaced out in front of her, and raised her lower back awaiting the usual sound of the whistle. Inuyasha put the whistle in his mouth as he grabbed the stop watch and prepared it. Once he had it at 0 he blew the whistle and saw Kazuki run with vigour.

After 20 laps Kagome fell on the ground in exhaustion and started panting as she was trying her best to catch her breath. Inuyasha ran to her with a bottle of water in his hand. Kagome sat up and took the water in gratitude. She downed the liquid and Inuyasha chuckled.

"Wow shorty relax"

Kagome smiled as she tilted her head back "God that was good"

Inuyasha shook his head and helped him up. Kagome took the hand in gratitude and both headed into the gym to carry on with some more training.

Both Inuyasha and Kagome were walking towards the hall for assembly, and were chatting about Kagome's progress in gym, which led to what the assembly would be talking about, which led to Inuyasha explaining to her the Halloween festival in the end of October. Kagome 'ohed' and caught up with Miroku and Koga who were standing in one queue Koga in front of Miroku. Kagome stood behind Miroku and Inuyasha stood behind her.

Miroku turned around and winked "Hola mi amigos, how is it going?"

Kagome smiled and nodded "Hey Yasha, says that this assembly will be about the Halloween festival. What exactly do you do?" Kagome asked.

Miroku thought for a moment but Koga answered "Well basically, the whole school opens up during the whole day with stalls ready filled with sweets and food and accessories for the public, and then during the night usually the school come up with an idea, or the school comity do."

Kagome nodded and then turned to see Inuyasha bored out of his mind. Kagome giggled quietly as she saw him lose his footing for a moment from boredom. Inuyasha cleared his throat as he shied away. Kagome kept laughing quietly and turned to the front where she saw Daisuke standing with papers in his hand. He tapped the mic before clearing his throat "Okay, good morning every body. As you know It is mid October and Halloween will be in two weeks time. Uh, nevertheless we will have our festival slightly earlier, and last year we had earned a lot of money that was invested in the school, and we are hoping to earn just as much this year. Now we had spoken to some students about what to do after the whole school festival, since we have a private party. Most came up with equal ideas, and the school council have pieced together all your ideas and the school has chosen for our private party..." Daisuke opened the envelope and squinted his eyes as he leaned in closer to the piece of paper "...okay it has been decided that we will have a haunted mansion on the night of the 31st of October."

Kagome's eyes widened a little 'a what?'

Daisuke read out more of the paper "We have permission from the teachers since it is on a Friday, and the idea in a nutshell some people wanted to make their costumes and wanted to do decorations around the school to scare people. They want to do something such as fake pop up dead bodies and ghosts, and basically wanted to scare the new people to this school, such as the younger years."

Kagom looked around and saw that it wasn't a whole school assembly. Kagome leaned back to whisper to Inuyasha "Hey why aren't the younger years here?" Kagome asked not being able to see Kohaku any where.

Inuyasha bent down and whispered in her ear, causing Kagome to shiver at the pleasure of his hot breath. "Because this assembly is only for the upper years."

Kagome frowned "But I thought it was a whole school assembly"

Inuyasha shrugged "Maybe the ones in charge of the private event this year is us and not them"

Kagome 'oohed' and turned to the front "So on behalf of the council comity, we advise that each form please select a type of stall for the open event to the public, then to prepare for the private celebration of Halloween starting today. Thank you"

And with that the assembly was over, and everybody was getting ready for their next class. Inuyasha and Kagome both headed to history, whilst Miroku and Koga headed to Science. As Kagome and Inuyasha were walking to class Kagome decided to start conversation "So, what did our form do last year?"

Inuyasha smiled "Nothing much since no-one in our class is a cook, we just bought costumes and props and sold them for deals that they wouldn't find in shops"

Kagome nodded as she smiled "And what do you think we will do this year?"

Inuyasha smiled "Definitely not cooking, but maybe...well I'm not sure actually. I don't really care to be honest."

Kagome shrugged and nodded "Fair enough"

It was after school and Kagome along with Inuyasha were sitting in the back talking about the training tomorrow morning, and what they were going to eat that night. Soon Mr. Myoga entered and smacked his stick on the desk "Class settle down please, now we need to consider this morning's assembly, and as every year we have to decide what stall we shall do, anybody have any ideas."

Inuyasha and Kagome turned to someone in the class who put their hand up "How about we do what we did last year" most of the class agreed, and both Inuyasha, Kagome shrugged at the same time.

Mr. Myoga frowned and shook his head "No we need something fun and different last year. We must come up with a unique idea."

everybody in the class was confused but then one boy said "How about water pistols and basically the challenge was to knock over empty plastic bottles using the water pistols. We can have two buckets full of water and they could refill only once. And if you manage to knock over the bottles then you get to choose a soft toy, which could be hung up on top of the stall?"

Mr. Myoga thought about it for a bit before nodding "That sounds like a productive task, and children could play too. Okay then what does everybody else think?"

The whole class nodded and agreed including Inuyasha and Kagome. Inuyasha smiled and leaned into Kazuki's ear "How about a bet?"

Kagome smirked "You already owe me one favour, do you want to ow me another?"

Inuyasha laughed quietly "No, let's just say, that on the day of the festival how about we both get water guns, and see who get's who first. Whoever does means they get to do a favour for the other"

Kagome saw the twinkle of mischief in his eyes and smirked back as she whispered in his own ear.

"Deal"

Hey guys here you go another chapter. Thank you so much for all your reviews I can't believe I got to 160! ^^ I'm so happy. I am so sorry I updated a little late, but I've been busy with work, have headaches and am very tired after coming back from school, plus homework I am so sorry. However I will try to update in a shorter amount of time. Hope you can all bare with me :) anyway hope you all enjoy and review. And I do not hate the film 'the exorcist' however I don't do well with horror :P and so I don't know much films other than that one, and I wanted to make Kagome scared of them for the romantic moments, so I don't mean to offend anybody I promise :P

Remember more reviews faster update.
