So so so so so sorry! Find it in your hearts to forgive me! Pwease O_O

That night, I congratulated myself for figuring out her plan. All of Kagome's suspicion is gone, and now all I have to do is win her heart.
It was a spur of the moment thing when I told her I had confessed my feelings first. Man, if anyone find's out, that could mean big trouble.
I don't think Sango and Ayame were that suspicious, but what if Kouga and Miroku told them the same thing? What if they told their "crushes" that they confessed first?
If Kagome finds out, she'll start to get uneasy.
I fell asleep then, contemplating what my next plan would be.
*Morning*
My alarm blared, and I pulled it out of the wall and chucked it across the room.
I was too tired to go to school.
My ears twitched as I heard passing voices outside my window.
I usually walked ahead of everyone else!
I ran over to my alarm and shoved the plug into the socket on my wall.
7:15! School starts in 15 minutes!
I actually do remember slamming my hand down on the snooze button. Shiiiiit!
I pulled on the first things in my closet: Black knee-high shorts, and a white Nickelback T.
I shoved my binders into my backpack and flew out the door.
I more leaped to school than ran, with people staring and everything. But I couldn't say I didn't like it, because I like attention. I was hated when I was younger, being a half demon and all.
I love to be noticed and gaga'd over, so when I flung the door open and almost broke it off the hinges in English, I just smiled and sat in my seat.
More poems, more easy ass poems…BORING.
I couldn't wait to get to lunch, so PE and Science went achingly slow.
When I saw Kouga and Miroku already at lunch, I slammed my hands on the table and blurted, "Guess wha-"
"I got kissed," Kouga interrupted me. I fell over anime-style as he put this smirk on his face. "She is soooo hooked!"
"Damn," I whispered, "You lucky bastard!"
Miroku sighed as Kouga continued, "That Ayame totally has had a crush on me all these years even after I rejected her. I'm pretty sure getting her into bed won't be that hard." I almost winced as he non-chalantly said it like it were yesterdays chores.
Was I that cruel?
"Guys, I really want to continue this bet, but I think I actually like Sango."
My head whipped to my left as Miroku spoke up for the first time. "Are you backing out?"
He yawned, "I can't really do that, can I?" He rested his head on his fore arms, "I just really don't want her finding out about it…"
"Who said anyone was going to find out?" Kouga laughed.
"Kouga's right," I added, "I'm definitely not telling."
Miroku shook his head, "How long do you think we can keep this up Inuyasha? I mean, what if they are suspecting us right now?"
I grinned from ear to ear as I talked, "That's what I was going to tell you until somebody," I glared at Kouga, "rudely interrupted me."
My ears twitched as Kouga scoffed.
"So when Kagome and I were eating at Wild Waves yesterday…"

"You kissed him!" I practically screeched as Ayame blushed profusely.
"That's what I said isn't it?" She mumbled avoiding my gaze.
"How could you let him do that?" I whispered, "How could you do that after what he did to you?"
"That was a long time ago Kagome." She snapped, clearly seeing it as a childish memory.
Sango cut in, "Kagome, this is very important for Ayame…you should be happy for her."
I sighed. Maybe I was being a little too overcautious?
"I'm sorry Ayame," I smiled, "Congrats on your first kiss."
She took a bite of her sandwich as she smiled back, "Thanks!"
"I have to tell you guys something that I found out yesterday," I whispered to them.
Sango began to whine, "So you were playing him! I knew-"
"Woah hold your horses, hungry tiger!" I shushed her, and told them the events of the previous day.
Sango's lips curved into a side-smile. "So maybe Kags was wrong!" She threw her hands up in a dramatic gesture, "Whatever shall we do! Inuyasha likes her for who she i-"
I slapped my hand over her mouth, "You don't have to announce it to the entire student body you idiot!"
I looked around, now noticing the weird looks I was receiving from other students as I took my hand off of Sango's mouth.
I cleared the non-existent junk in my throat as I leaned in to huddle with my best friends, "Is it just me, or is everyone giving me funny looks today?"
Sango shook her head, "Nope, it's me too." She slurped up another noodle. "Me and Miroku just hung around like friends yesterday. He groped me a few times, but I gave him an earned slap to the face."
"It's probably because we were hanging around the most popular guys in Balinor High."
My brain seemed to register what Ayame was saying, "But it was only yesterday!"
"Kagome," Sango started, "The fact that we are the least popular people in the school and we are hanging out with the coolest might draw a little attention."
As she said that, Kikyou walked by. She sneered at me and continued talking make-up with her material friends.
"I think she has it in for me," I said as I rubbed my temples.
"Well she is Inuyasha's ex…"
I smiled sarcastically, "Oh really? Thanks for the info Ayame!"
She shot me a grin, "Oh sorry! I didn't know you were as shallow as Inuyasha!"
Sango laughed, "Ooooh you just got poned!"
I growled, "Oh shut your face!"
I was saved by the bell as I jumped from my seat and skipped outside toward history.
As I opened the door, I saw Inuyasha sitting in my seat in the far left corner.
I walked up to him and sighed dramatically, "Why are you sitting in my seat? And why are you even in this section?"
I swear I heard grasshoppers chirp as I now had the attention of everyone else.
"I'm pretty sure you don't own this seat," he said as he looked up at me. "Is it a crime to sit next to the prettiest girl in the school?"
I heard everyone trying not to laugh at his declaration, and I began to blush a deep shade of red. "Cut the crap already," I whispered as I sat down, "Everyone knows I'm not pretty." He was beautiful on the other hand. His long silver hair was mesmerizing, and his adorable ears twitched at my last statement. Just like a puppy!
He nodded his head like he understood, "Well you would be if you got out of those 500 year old grandma clothes."
I gasped as he insulted me, "What gives you the right to insult me!"
He shrugged, "I wasn't insulting you. I was pointing out the facts."
My temper flared, "Well then what do you propose I should do Mr. High and mighty! I don't exactly get everything I want because I'm not a spoiled brat!"
The whole class talked in hushed whispers as Inuyasha glared at me, "I'm not a spoiled brat you bitch, and you have no idea who I am or what I've been through!"
"Oh really," I spat, ignoring what he just called me, "Then enlighten me!"
He just turned away without a word as the bell rang, signaling the start of class.
I started to feel bad about what I said to him. His eyes seemed to be filled with so much pain…
Maybe I was too hard on him.
Should I apologize?
The bell rang after what seemed like forever, "Hey Inuyasha?"
He didn't acknowledge the fact that he heard me, but I continued anyway, "I'm really sorry about what I said earlier…I didn't mean to upset you like that." He stopped in his tracks and looked up.
"Well I suppose I said too much. I have a terrible temper. Or, everyone says so anyways."
I laughed as I zipped up my backpack, "That makes 2 of us!"
He genuinely laughed, and it made butterflies appear in my stomach. His laugh was so…sexy.
Oh my god.
I can't have an attraction to Inuyasha!
I don't, of course!
You know why!
I get butterflies all the time when people laugh!
…..
It's nothing I should be worried about.
His voice brought me out of my mini panic attack, "You want to go shopping?"
I waved my hand, "Nice one, Inuyasha."
I walked out the door and he came up next to me as I walked toward 5th period.
"I'm serious. You really need new clothes."
My temper sparked again, "Is that supposed to convince me? What's wrong with these?" I indicated my outfit.
Inuyasha stopped and grabbed my shoulders, "Kagome…" He murmured lustily.
My breath stopped. Was he about to make another love declaration?
I thought wrong as he continued in his normal voice after inspecting me, "You are dressed in jeans that are 3 times bigger than they need to be, and your sweatshirts are like dresses!"
I stiffened and turned away, "Am I supposed to look like I work at Victoria's secret? If you don't like the way I dress, beat it."
I stopped then.
I turned to see his pleading amber eyes on my brown ones, "I'm only making a suggestion."
I made an excuse, "I don't have any money…"
He rubbed the back of his neck, "That's why I have money."
He pulled out a fist full of 50 dollar bills, and I blurted out the next excuse, "But guys don't like shopping anyways! I couldn't force you to do that!"
Inuyasha looked at me like I was stupid, "I'm the one who suggested it in the first place woman, and you need someone to tell you what looks good."
I knew I would be late for class so I threw my head back in defeat, "Fine." He smiled and stuck out his fist.
I stared at it, and he threw his hands up before insulting me, "You're supposed to punch it wench."
He stuck out his fist again, and this time I punched his chest.
It felt like my bones were broken against his toned abs, but it was enough to make him sputter, "What the hell!"
"Ka-go-me. You've called me by my name before, so don't call me wench."
I turned on my heel and heard him yell, "I'll pick you up in the parking lot!"
I turned to tell him I would rather not direct attention to myself that way, but he was already gone.
Plenty of people were staring at me, and my heart raced as I thought about him.
I can't be thinking about him that way. He's just a friend. I blushed as I remembered how insistent he was. Was he really just a friend to me?
"I don't think I've ever blushed so much in a day my whole life," I cursed under my breath. "This can't be good for my health."

I really hope this chapter was worth your time, and please review even if it's to rag on my about how long it took me to post this! So sorry about that once again! O_O
I really wanted to wait to start some romance (even though Inuyasha doesn't really like her like that yet. He's still just a horny highschool kid -_-') so that it would build up the story more, but that also makes it boring too…
So many decisions! Ahhh!
Okays, thanks for reading, and please review ^_^ It sure means a lot!
Peace out!
