CHAPTER 9: In Da Club…no not the song!
Sango walked down the hall looking for her next class, 'Why does he flirt with every girl but me?' She asked herself silently, she'd been growing a grudge towards other girls since she first realized she liked the stupid pervert. Granted there were times when he grabbed her butt, but it was only when Kagome was really pissed. He knew better than to set himself up for total annihilation!
Do you really want him to? replied the voice in her head. She thought about it but ended up just pushing her feelings aside. She didn't need to end up like Kagome and with all the stress she was currently facing she felt like it could happen at any moment. She looked down the long hallway to her left. Lost again. Last period this had happened, she had ended up asking a janitor which way to go and got lost again because his directions were wrong. It was like everyone she asked was out to get her. So she just stopped asking.
'How come I get all the weird classes?' she thought to herself sighing and walking down the long corridor. Sango silently cursed her target, had he not picked these classes she would not be in this mess. Who wanted to take advanced drafting anyway?
"Excuse me." Said a voice behind her, she turned ready to attack, she had her fists up and a glare on her face. "Whoa, Whoa, I don't want any trouble." He said holding his hands up in defense.
"Sorry." Sango dropped her fists her face flushing with embarrassment.
"Could you help me?" he asked, apparently he was in the same mess she was in. "I can't find my class." He explained, looking down at his schedule.
"I'd like to really but I'm new here." Sango said, he stared at her in defeat, he looked as if he'd had a long day. "Maybe we can help each other." She said feeling sorry for him and at the same time cursing herself for being such a softy. It wasn't like she was going to make it to this class on time anyway.
He looked up at her hopefully. "Okay so what class are you going to?" she took his schedule and looked it over before he could answer.
"Well I guess we're both screwed." She was officially defeated. "We have the same class." She sighed heavily wanting to know which of her crimes she was paying for today.
"Great well, I'm Hinton." He held out his hand, slowly she took it.
"Sango." His name sounded familiar and now that she thought about it he looked familiar, Sango felt a chill crawl up her spine. She wouldn't survive with this person for another minute. There was just something about his face that made her want to run screaming in the other direction. Which is basically what she did.
She took off down the hall looking for the room, in a hurry to find someone so she would no longer have to be alone with this guy. He kept up with her helping her look but Sango still tried her hardest to stay far away.
Kagome sighed when she realized that her next class was gym. 'Why does he have to be an athlete?' she thought.
"Kagome!" It was Ayame, again 'Every class' Kagome thought another sigh escaping her.
"Are you okay?" Ayame looked at her new friend with caution.
"Yeah fine." Ayame left her to go get dressed for gym, as Kagome made her way over to the teacher. He was a young fit man, and Kagome was also noticing a pattern, all of her teachers so far had been male. It made her thing, but not too hard. He looked to be about 23 or so, and Kagome would be agreeing with Ayame on this one he was rather hot. Though she wasn't interested, and he was way to girly for her.
"Excuse me" Kagome said standing next to him. She felt like running a mile after the glare he sent her way.
"May I help you?" The teacher looked to her with a frown. Why were all of her teachers asses? She really wanted to know. Was it what they ate for breakfast or just the fact that they had their heads stuck so far up their own asses that they couldn't breath making them prone to bitching?
"I'm the new student." She explained, as if he should know this.
"Oh Kagome right?" he asked her, picking up a clipboard he checked her off his to do list. "Have you made any friends yet?" He asked conversationally, but all she wanted was her clothes so she could change.
"Yes." She paused thinking about the other question, "And no, well atleast not really."
"Okay well I'm Mr. Tannehill." He introduced himself, "You'll need one of these" he reached around a small desk and grabed the spare outfit that he'd stored there.
"Thanks" she said taking it. He gave her a locker combo and showed her where the locker room was. She changed then joined the rest of the class for her least favorite subject…gym. Not that she wasn't good at sports, she just prefered to not to have to run. She was too good for running, and if she had to run, it was a bad thing.
Inuyasha smiled at her as she walked in and sat where the teacher told her to. Ayame waved as she sat across from her on the gym floor. Kagome looked around at the full gym. 'Why would people take a gym class if it wasn't required?' she thought, after all, this was the advanced gym class and totally not required.
She listened to the teacher talk about their next few days and what was going to be happening. They were to play basketball today and tomorrow and then on Friday they where going to play dodge ball. He asked her if she had any questions, and she said no. The rest of the class acknowledged her but only for seconds then they were off.
The teacher had them go up the stairs to where they were outside the gym and they ran around the gym for nine minutes. 'These people are insane!' Kagome thought frantically. She ran with Ayame who appeared to be having no problems whatsoever. Kagome thought it even more insane that Ayame seemed to be having fun! Could you believe the horror?!
After nine minutes of Cardio, as the gym teacher called it, they came back down and he set them up into 6 teams. Luckily Kagome was put on a team with Inuyasha, Ayame and some other guy that Inuyasha knew. Kagome sighed thinking about Miroku and how much fun he must be having in the art class he was in right now, wishing she could trade him spots.
Miroku sighed as he sat in the hallway; he'd been kicked out of class for no good reason. He thought back to the events of 15 minutes ago.
FLASHBACK
Miroku had followed Kikyo to her class and sat behind her, he watched her like a halk. And so far she hadn't noticed him and that was putting him in a bad mood. So he decided that he would put the moves on her during this class. After all what did he have to lose?
The teacher had them work in groups on the project for today and he was quick to sneak into her group with her best friend Kagura. After all they couldn't make him leave the table, it was against the teachers rules.
"Hey, ladies." He said smoothly, Kikyo looked at him in disgust and Kagura was all over him in seconds. 'Okay so that wasn't my plan but still." He grinned as he thought about this. How in the world was he going to make Kikyo like him? He had a hard time making Sango like him and she wasn't easy. He tried his best to ignore Kagura and get Kikyo to like him. His first action didn't work so he moved on to a new tactic.
"So what are you doing tonight?" He asked Kikyo, in a very suggestive voice.
"None of your business." She said snidely, 'Playing hard to get?' he thought, so he stepped it up a notch. And boy did that end wrong. It was only one grab
BAMB!
BANG!
BOOM!
"Owww!"
"Mister Yoshi! To the hallway now!" yeah he was caught and caught bad. Why did they always play hard to get?
He got up and winked at Kikyo. He watched as she glared at him and saw Kagura look disappointed. She really thought he was interested in her, as if! He had come to realize that there was only one person he really cared for and that was Sango, well Kagome too but it just wasn't the same with her, they were only friends.
END FLASHBACK
Miroku rubbed his hands over his face. He had to do this for the team; he would not let them down this time. Miroku closed his eyes and ended up daydreaming about Sango again, but quickly stopped himself, he had to make a plan. He used the rest of his hour to formulate pick up lines and had come up with a few he was sure would work.
At the end of the day when the final bell rang it was like a miracle.
The final bell rang and school had ended. The relief was so thick that Sango, Miroku and Kagome laughed as they walked out of the school together. They had almost made it to their car but not before running into Inuyasha. He stopped them and reminded them to meet him later that night. He gave Kagome a second set of directions and his cell phone number incase they got lost. They promised to be there and then went on their way.
As they drove home Sango told them about Hinton. He had been in all of her classes after that one and she still felt uneasy.
"Hinton? That sounds familiar." Kagome's face scrunched up as she thought about the name. It was probably one of Naraku's lackys, which meant Naraku already knew about their failed attempt at getting the jewel. "Naraku," She debated the name and after a few minutes of thinking and thinking hard it hit her like a ton of bricks. "He's the one who…" Kagome trailed off when she saw the look on Sango's face. She looked as if she was ready to cry.
"I knew there was a reason I didn't like him." Anger took over her sadness. Hinton had been the one who had shot Sango a year ago after trying to rape her but failing. Naraku had put him up to it and Kagome was close to killing him when Sango got put in jail.
"Sango?" Miroku asked he looked into the rear view mirror to look her in the eye. She looked up at him and he smiled softly at her, a smile she was sure she was imagining. "I'll take care of him." A possessiveness in Miroku took him over in a way she had never seen. It was obvious he was mad but why? Sango couldn't figure it out.
"Not yet." Kagome scolded from the front seat next to him. They still had a job to do.
He glared at her the anger still there. "And why not?" The car swirved a bit as he turned to look at her with cold daring eyes.
"We still need him, he can lead us to Naraku." Kagome explained, that way if she didn't get the jewel she could still get Naraku.
"Well after he does then I'm going to take him out." Kagome knew exactly what it was that was making Miroku act this way, he was in love with Sango, she could see it clearly now, why he tried hard not to grope her so she wouldn't be angry at him, how he was always sweet even if it was perverted. Kagome felt happy for the two even if they still hadn't found out what she had. They would soon enough.
They got home five minutes later and then got ready to go partying with Inuyasha. Kagome almost stapped on her gun but decided instead to leave it. She wasn't sure why, but she did. He'd said a club but when Kagome looked it up on her laptop she found out that it was just a Karaoke bar, which was fine with her. Maybe she would even sing once or twice. She told Sango and Miroku of her discovery and they decided to practice by grabbing their CDs and popping them into Kagome's laptop. The music blasted from the small speakers as they sang to an All-American Rejects song, Miroku a little off pitch and Sango sounding as if she was a famous pop singer.
After an hour of Sango and Miroku switching CDs and jamming to each song, they decided to leave early so if they got lost they would have time to find an alternative route. And of course to scope the place out.
Miroku got them there on time only screwing up once when he took a left instead of going straight. They stood where Inuyasha indicated they should and waited for him to arrive. It didn't take long before he showed up with a big smile on his face that made Kagome curious. They all went inside after a few quick greetings.
"Hey Inuyasha!" said a big guy at the entrance. They shook hands he allowed them in. It was just that easy. Kagome had never really shown an interest in bars, so she never really drank either.
"Is anyone else going to be joining us?" Kagome asked. For a change the karaoke area wasn't loud, yet. She found out that singing didn't start till 6 o'clock.
"Yeah, you don't mind do you?" he asked worried she'd leave. Though Kagome seriously thought about it, she wanted to make this work and as long as she wasn't getting ditched with the tab she was ok with it.
"No not at all." He smiled, and awkwardly she smiled back. She felt unsure by his bright knowing smile, as if he could see right through her.
"Great!" After a few minutes Inuyasha got up and went up to the DJ he came back with a big binder, a few note cards, and some pens. He put them on the table and they all looked through the book while deciding what songs they wanted to sing.
"Inu hey!" said a deep voice from behind them. They all looked up, only Sango and Inuyasha recognizing the voice.
"Hey Koga!" They shook hands and Inuyasha introduced everyone.
"Sango!" he noticed her instantly not giving Inuyasha the chance to speak, and he shot her a 1000 watt smile, Kagome was almost blinded by the sight. "How's it going?"
"Good!" They acted as if they where good friends. Kagome gave her friend a look then gave her the thumbs up as to indicate she was doing a good job. She smiled and Kagome noticed a jealous look on Miroku's face. She watched as he scooted his chair closer to Sango as if indicating she was his.
"Well I see you've meet Sango, this is Miroku and this is Kagome." He pointed to the two.
"Nice to meet you." He shook hands with Miroku and took Kagome's hand and kissed it making Kagome blush. She'd never been treated so nicely. And she didn't want it to continue.
"Nice meeting you." She said once she was back in her comfort zone and he'd released her hand.
"Hey" was all Miroku said, his tension lessening when he noticed Inuyasha with the same look he had just seconds ago. 'Guess Kagome's doing a good job with her target, and it looks like Sango and Koga are the best of friends.' He thought, he hadn't told them about the hard time he'd had with Kikyo. He'd never been so upset with himself. He pushed his shame aside and joined in with the conversation.
"Is Kikyo coming?" Koga asked.
"No she said something to the point of pervert and psycho bitch and said she didn't feel well so I just hung up." Kagome smirked as he said this she remembered in their lunch class. She had "accidentally" spilt coke on Kikyo while she yelled at her to go away. Miroku smiled thankfully, atleast his friends wouldn't know what a terrible job he was doing. The DJ started up his station at exactly 6:00 and they all took their cards up to the booth.
The fun was just beginning.
A/N ok, so no really big changes just a little added info! ENJOY!
