CHAPTER 8: Meeting Inuyasha

Kagome hurried to her locker not waiting for Miroku to catch up, she was unsure of her rash exit, but it was not something she was completely in control of. She really just wanted to get away. Leave this place and go else where, but she still had more than four hours left of school. She threw open her locker door getting it on the first try, probably a stroke of luck. She felt anger rush through her, and jerked when she felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Miroku.

Kagome looked down, a bit ashamed of her behavior towards him, she had after all left him out. "What is it Kagome?" She hadn't told him about her father or why she did what she did. You'd figure she would have, after knowing him for over 6 years, but there was a mental block that wouldn't allow her. Of course she told Sango but Miroku was different, to her he just wasn't the same. Not that she had anything against him, she just didn't want her fathers history to change the way he viewed her. Especially since her father was the only reason she was in this business.

"Nothing," Kagome muttered, looking up, "Really." She smiled at the concerned look on his face.

"It must be something; I've never seen you this upset before." Miroku really hadn't she was always the strong one she held them together, even last year when Sango a been captured and put in jail, Kagome had found a way to break her out of jail and they made it away safe once again because of Kagome. Kagome was always the one they could count on, to be level headed and to for a plan when something went wrong. So Kagome crying was a big deal.

"I'm fine!" she snapped upset with herself for showing emotion, she'd been trained in lying but still she couldn't lie to Miroku, or Sango. Speaking of the devil, Sango walked up and joined them but upon seeing Kagome's face knew something was wrong. She almost assumed it was Miroku's fault but one look at his confused face told her it wasn't. He always took the blame for his perverted hands.

"What's going on?" She looked to Kagome for an explanation and the look she recieved told mostly what she needed to know.

To make sure Kagome touched her necklace and whispered. "Dad…" Only loud enough for her to hear.

"Oh, Kagome." Sango pulled her best friend into an embrace. It was the only subject Kagome couldn't handle on her own. "It's okay." She assured her, smoothing her hair down her back. "Don't even bother asking," She told Miroku pointedly and he nodded understanding anyway.

"I know, I'm just being stupid, it's not like it's a big deal." Kagome wiped her eyes again, feeling silly. Why was she having issues dealing with this newly built up stress. There must be something about a school that takes it all out on you or something.

"It is a big deal, and you're going to pull through just like last time." Sango promised, she didn't mention exactly what had happened last time, but Sango and Kagome knew it was the reason Sango had ended up in jail, also something Miroku didn't know.

"I'm okay now I promise." She looked up at Miroku, his face still shocked and covered in confusion. Too bad he'd never know, not volunteerily anyway.

"Okay." He said, feeling uncomfortable, so doing the only thing he knew how to do right he grabbed Sango's butt and…do I have to even type it?

SMACK!

BOOM!

"It was well worth it!" He groaned from the floor, finally back in his comfort zone.

"This is no time for your crazy antics!" Sango glared down at him but Kagome just laughed. And somehow that made everything ok.

"Excuse me." Someone interupted from behind Kagome, she turned and found herself face to face with Inuyasha. A big shocker on her part. Confusion was written all over her face and he smiled at the look he as getting. "Are you okay?" he asked not knowing what else he could say. At first Kagome thought he meant Miroku but then he gave her that same look as he had in the classroom when she was crying and it hit her.

But she didn't want the others to know about that so she played dumb. "What?" she was slightly confused though, why was he here and why was he asking if she was okay? He was rich wasn't he? Wasn't he supposed to be snobby? He's not supposed to care. That's what she kept telling herself, and yet it didn't really help.

"I…umm…saw you crying and I just wanted to know if you were okay." He put his hands into the pockets of his jnco jeans, almost as if he were embarrassed for invading her privacy. 'This is some sort of joke.' Kagome immediately thought, jocks with money didn't care. He was trying to get her to go out with him or something and then they were going to leave her with some geek in the middle of a restaurant, with coke on her new outfit, just like the movies. Yeah that was it, her mind told her, but her heart didn't believe it.

"I'm fine." She told him, looking to Sango who was glaring at Miroku her eyes just daring him to touch her again, which he would have, if he'd been given the chance.

"…umm…would you like to join me and some friends tonight at the club?" He offered and it threw her off, but then she remembered the movies and grew cautious. 'Told you so!' her mind screamed.

'This is some kind of prank, isn't it, oh that's just rude.' Kagome thought.

"I don't even know your name and you're asking me to hang out with you?" Kagome questioned him very matter-of –factly.

"I'm Inuyasha." He held out his hand and she took it, still not believing his niceboy act.

"I'm Kagome, nice to meet you." She said sweetly, trying to play dumb. "This is Miroku and this is Sango." She indicated her two friends.

"So would you like to join us tonight?" he asked again, as if her answer was the key to the party.

"Sure where at?" he gave her quick directions and then left for his next class, which he didn't yet know, he had with her.

"Kagome! What are you doing?" Sango screamed as soon as he was out of site, but Kagome had already formed a plan. A plan that would bring her closer to Inuyasha

"Getting to know my target." She replied, a cocky grin on her face, she grabbed her things fully recovered from her previous emotional rollercoaster.

"Can we come too?" Miroku asked in hope. If it was one thing he loved it was bars. Plenty of girls and plenty of fun. Too bad he wasn't allowed to have any.

"That's my plan, see if Inuyasha is going don't you think that his girlfriend and best friend will be going too?" Kagome asked, as if she knew all, which, let's face it, she mostly did.

"Oh!" the realization hit Sango like a ton of bricks, "You're good." She smirked, and they headed down the hall not wanting to be too late for class.

"I know!" Grinning still they walked and Kagome felt her confidence roll back in like a wave.

As they walked away they noticed Miroku just standing there not paying attention. "Are you coming?" Sango glanced back, but what she saw was not good.

BANG!

BOOM!

"Will he ever learn?" Kagome asked, but she knew the answer, and it wasn't looking good. "Come on let's go." They headed off to class dragging Miroku behind them all the while laughing at him.

AN I didn't like this the first time i wrote it and it's a little better now, and I'm sorry for the increasing changes in each chapter! lol It's just that I wrote this so long ago the changes are really doing it alot of good.
