The Next Morning
The alarm clock rings, signaling it's 5:30am and time to wake up. Kagome, throwing a pillow at Sango, jumped out of bed and into the shower, away from her angry twin. Sango walked into their bathroom and smirked. "Good morning Mrs. Takahashi, and thank you for the wake up call," on the last tree words Sango turned on the hot water, causing the shower to go freezing. Kagome had gotten used to cold water over the years and didn't mind, just replied, "And good morning to you to, Mrs. Houshi." Sango gave up after five minutes and turned the hot water off.
An hour and thirty minutes later the girls walked out of the house, ready for school. Kagome was wearing a white T-shirt with blue hearts trailing down one side, a knee-length denim skirt and blue flip-flops. Sango was wearing a black T-shirt with the words "I don't turn heads, i break necks" in red, dark wash jeans and black flip-flops. Both wore their hair down and had a side part.
There, parked in their drive way, was a black, Chevy Silverado 4X4 crew cab, with Inuyasha and Miroku leaning on the hood. "Oh my God! This is my dream car!' Kagome shrieked. "Miroku your awesome!" Kagome ran to Miroku and hugged him tightly. Kagome and Miroku both heard a growl escaping Inuyasha's throat. Kagome walked over to Inuyasha, hugged him, and whispered in his ear, "don't worry, Inu-baby, and don't feel threatened. Miroku is Sango's and you. You're ALL mine." Kagome let go and turned around to just see her sister's first kiss. "Okay guys, let's get going." Kagome giggled.
At school Kagome and Sango were popular, so were Inuyasha and Miroku. But no one expected this sight. When Kagome got out of the driver's seat of the mysterious, new car everyone held in a breath. Kagome smiled as Sango got out behind her. Inuyasha and Miroku got out of the passenger's side and when to their girls. Kagome looped arms with Inuyasha and Sango, Sango looped onto Miroku's and the 4 walked inside, smirking at their spectators. Kagome and Sango unhooked their arms and the guys instinctively put their arms around the girls' shoulders.
Their schedules were basically the same, except Miroku took an advanced art class when the other 3 took music. So they walked each other to everyone's locker and went to their first class: Algebra 2 with Mrs. Tsubaki. During class Inuyasha and Kagome passed notes, which came out to be just rambling on about how much they couldn't wait for tonight.
At lunch, the four sat at a table and were joined by Kouga and Ginta. "Hey baby girl, what's crackin'?" Kouga said to Kagome as he sat next to her. On Kagome's other side was Inuyasha, who put an arm around Kagome's waist. "Koug, please, 'nuff with the pet names, k? It's Kags, or Kagome. Pick one." Kagome said mildly annoyed. "Um, don't people call you Kagsi too? Oh hey, anyway you want a ride home tonight? Mine and Ginta's stiff is already in the Escalade." Kouga said. "Only my besties can call me Kagsi, k? And if i rode with you, then who would bring my truck home? Nah, come by around 4, we should be packed by then." Kagome said. "Okay, four it is." Kouga said trying to kiss Kagome's cheek. "Hey Kagsi, we better get going. We need to beat the lunch back up in the halls. Bye Kouga." Sango said, dragging Kagome, Inuyasha and Miroku out of the cafeteria with her.
Kagome pounced on Sango in a hug. "Thank you, thank you, thank you!" "Ha, no prob. That guy's a total nut-case." Sango said hugging back. "I don't like that guy. He seems a little weird." Inuyasha said. Kagome went over to Inuyasha and hugged him. "I wish we could just go with you and Miroku instead of having to take the 4 hour ride with Kouga and Ginta." Inuyasha hugged back. "You'll be spending a weekend with me and Miroku and Sango. I'm sure you can handle 4 hours with Kouga." Kagome was lightly sobbing into Inuyasha's chest. "What if he tries something? What if he kisses me?" "Then you text me and I beat the shit out of him, ok?" Inuyasha assured her. "Ok." Kagome looked up into Inuyasha's eyes and brushed her lips lightly across his. It felt incredible but they decided to break away. The gang headed to their lockers and went on with the rest of the day.
After school the 4 went to Kagome and Sango's house to help them pack. Miroku was filled in on the plan and at 3:30 the girls were packed, Miroku was in the bathroom and Inuyasha was raiding the kitchen. In the living room, Kagome heard car doors close and there was a knocking on the door. "50 bucks says thats Koug and Ginta." Kagome sighed "There's no betting against that" Sango smirked and went to open the door. "Hey Sango! Hey Kagome!" Kouga walked right in as soon as the door opened. "Kagome! How can you be out of whipped cream?! Now my Sundae is ruined!" Inuyasha yelled as he entered the living room, with his shirt off. (A/N: Fan girls scream!!) "Oh, hi Kouga. Come here often?" Inuyasha half laughed. "Kagome?" Kouga was looking for an explanation. Psh, oh well. "What? You aren't the only guy allowed in our house you know. And Inu-baby, did you look in the back? Behind the apple juice?" Kagome looked at Inuyasha. "Yes! I looked through that damn fridge 4 times. No whipped cream.." Inuyasha pouted. "Come on, I'll find some. Kouga, Ginta, make yourselves comfortable." Kagome said as she lead Inuyasha back to the kitchen.
Once in the kitchen, Kagome hugged Inuyasha. "Shh, it'll be alright." Inuyasha tried to stop the light sobbing. "Inuyasha, I don't want to go with him. He might jump me again!" Kagome sobbed. "Jump you? How?" Inuyasha wanted to kill Kouga but he needed to comfort Kagome. "I never told anyone but Sango this." Kagome was shaking from crying to much. "Kagsi, you don't have to tell me now. Not until you're ready. I don't want to pressure you." Inuyasha comforted Kagome. "I want to. Last year, Kouga and I went for a walk on the beach and he was all over me. He kissed my neck and ears and cheeks but I wouldn't let him take my first kiss. He tried to get me to have sex with him, too, but I refused and he... he slapped me, hard. I never liked him, but he fell in love with me when we were in Kindergarden. He was pissed at me for not liking him." Kagome cried into Inuyasha's chest. "I wont let that happen Kagome. I promise. I wont let him hurt you again." Inuyasha hugged Kagome tight against his chest.
About five minutes later Kagome and Inuyasha came out of the kitchen and Inuyasha had whipped cream on the point of his left ear and Kagome had it in her hair. "We found it!" Inuyasha laughed. "And this little butt had to put it in my hair! But that brings back memories." Kagome giggled. "Hey, sorry to break up this little laughing fest but we should get going." Kouga said. "Okay, bye Inu-baby." Kagome said as she kissed Inuyasha. "Mmm, bye Kagsi." Inuyasha said with a big smile on his face. "Bye Roku." Sango said as she hugged Miroku. "I'll see you tonight." Miroku whispered. Then Kagome, Sango, Kouga and Ginta left in Kouga's Escalade.
