'I'm so tired…' Kagome thought as she yawned to herself.

"Hey Kagome, what's wrong?" Sango asked concerned for her friend.

"I've been up all night trying to finish the project…"

"Why didn't you do the project with Inuyasha?"

"NO WAY, I'm not working with the spoiled prince again!"

"Why not?"

"Because he is a pain the butt, trust me Sango, he is SO annoying!"

"Well, you're lucky you're partnered up with Inuyasha, I had to work on the project with Miroku!"

Kagome smirked. "Come on Sango, I know you like Miroku!"

"No I DON'T!"

"Yes you do, it is totally in your eyes!"

"NO WAY! He is such a pervert, every time I try to discuss the project, he keeps touching my butt!" Kagome giggled.

"IT'S NOT FUNNY!" Sango complained. Kagome stopped giggling for Sango's sake. Then the school bell rang. "Well, I got to go to class, see ya!" Sango said as she headed for class.

"Alright, see you later!" Kagome yelled after her friend. Kagome was just about to head to class until she heard a voice in the bushes.

"Pssst, girl!" Kagome looked at the bushes strangely then thought, 'Wait a minute, I know who calls me girl all the time…' After a few seconds, Inuyasha popped out of the bushes and pulled Kagome in the bushes. "Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled.

"Shhh, listen up!" Inuyasha said as he covered Kagome's mouth so nobody would hear her.

"No, I don't want to listen to you, I had enough of you!" Kagome said as she uncovered Inuyasha's hand.

"No please, listen to me for just a second!"

"What do you want!"

"I want to ask a favor…" Kagome stared at Inuyasha for a moment.

"What kind of favor?" Kagome asked.

Inuyasha took a deep breath and asked, "Can you be my fake girlfriend for the party tonight?"

"Party? What party?" Kagome asked confused.

"The party that Koga invited me to tonight and I need you to be my fake girlfriend since I told Koga that you were my girlfriend, please?"

"Let me think…NO!"

"Why not!"

"Because you're annoying, obnoxious, and spoiled!"

"Come on please, just for one night and we can go back to hating each other, come on PLEASE, I'm begging you!" Inuyasha got down on his knees, put his hands together and started begged.

"Please girl…please…just one night?" Inuyasha said with pleading eyes. Kagome sighed.

"Alright…"

"YES, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU GIRL!"

"But if you're going to be my fake boyfriend, you have to know my name and that is Kagome."

"Oh alright gir- I mean Kagome…" Kagome nodded in approval.

"Alright, see you at Koga's party tonight…" Kagome said as she walked to her room.

"Alright, see you there!" Inuyasha said.

….

"Where are you going on a Friday night?" Okata asked while Kagome was putting on make-up.

"Oh I'm just going to….uh…a friend's house….to study…" Kagome responded nervously.

"oh, Which friend?

"Uh….Sango's….is it…okay?"

"Yeah it's alright…." Kagome stood up and headed out of her room.

"Make sure to be home at 10, alright?" Kagome nodded and left to go to Koga's party.

…..

"There you are...you're late!" Inuyasha yelled as Kagome arrived at the party.

"Well I'm sorry, Oka-I mean my mom was acting all suspicious around me and that why I am late…" Kagome responded.

"That is no exc…"

"Hey Inuyasha, where is your cutie pie?" Koga asked. Inuyasha then quickly wrapped his arms around Kagome and faced Koga.

"Here she is my…cutie pie…" Inuyasha said with a nervous smile. Koga bent down in front of Kagome and smirked, "if Inuyasha breaks up with you, I'm here for you." Koga winked as he said that.

"Hey, stay away from her." Inuyasha said as he growled.

"Whoa Inuyasha, take it easy, I'm just being friendly to her."

"A little too friendly…" Koga chuckled a little.

Koga chuckled and left. Kagome blushed when she found Inuyasha's arm around her waist. Inuyasha noticed it too then quickly let go of her.

"I-inuyasha?"

"Y-yeah?"

"Were you…protecting me?"

"No, why would I," Inuyasha said stubbornly, "We are just pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend that's all."

Kagome felt a little hurt when he said that. "You know what Inuyasha, you could be a little nicer to me," Kagome yelled, "YOU ARE SUCH A JERK!" With that said, Kagome stormed out of the party.

'Keh whatever…' Inuyasha thought stubbornly. 'It's not like she's important to me…'

…..

"Ugh, I HATE that little prince, I wish he was never my partner!" Kagome said as she walked to school one Monday morning.

"Look, I know you think he's stubborn and all," Sango said as she walked by Kagome. "Why don't you give him a chance, I mean, maybe he can be a good guy…"

"If you were me Sango, you would totally hate being his partner, HE'S STUBBORN AND ANNOYING!"

"Greetings ladies…" said Miroku as he went up in front of Sango and Kagome.

"Good morning Miroku…" Kagome said with a bright smile

"Morning Miroku…" said Sango also with a bright smile.

"So Sango, have you thought of what I said?" Miroku asked.

"Oh, uh…not yet…I'm still thinking about it…." Sango replied with a slight blush on her face.

"Oh alright…see you guys at school!" called Miroku as he ran to school. Sango blushed when he left. Kagome noticed that Sango was blushing.

"So, what did he asked you?" asked Kagome smirking.

"N-nothing!" replied Sango still blushing.

"Come on Sango, you can tell me!" Kagome said as she begged. "PLEASE!"

"Oh alright…" Sango said. Sango took a deep breath. "Alright here it goes….Miroku asked if he wanted us to be…boyfriend and girlfriend…" Kagome squealed in delight.

"Sango you defiantly be his girlfriend, you guys are so perfect for each other!"

"I…I don't know…"

"Come on Sango, give it a shot!" Sango's blush then turned into a smile, a confident smile.

"Alright, thanks Kagome!" With that, Sango ran after Miroku. Kagome smiled.

"Good luck, Sango…" Kagome said as she whispered to herself.

…

Once Kagome got to school, she saw a lot of girls surrounding Inuyasha.

"Oh Inuyasha, you are SO cute!" one of Kagome's classmates exclaimed.

"Inuyasha, you are SO strong!" exclaimed another of Kagome's classmates.

"Are you single?"

"Can I be your princess?"

"Wow, you're so cool!"

Kagome grumbled to herself. 'Look at them, drooling all over a spoiled and stubborn prince!' Kagome thought to herself bitterly. Kagome sat down at her seat and got ready for math.

"Alright class, take your seats." commanded Mrs. Wilson, Kagome's math teacher.

Everyone did as they were told and sat down in their seats ready for math class.

"Alright, your math problems for the day is on the board, now can anyone tell me what is the square root of 16?" said Mrs. Wilson. She looked around the class room and spotted Kagome raise her hand. "Kagome?"

"4?"

"That is correct." Kagome smiled to herself.

"Alright, next math problem, what is pie times to the square root of 25?" Once again, Mrs. Wilson looked around the room. "Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha looked up from his paper and looked confusedly at the board.

"I don't know…" Inuyasha replied. Mrs. Wilson stared at Inuyasha for a minute then answered, "Alright then…moving on…" Mrs. Wilson turned back to the black board and wrote another math problem.

…..

"Inuyasha, may I speak with you for a moment?" Mrs. Wilson asked after math class was over. Inuyasha walked up to Mrs. Wilson's desk.

"Yes?" asked Inuyasha.

"Well, today in class, I noticed that you had trouble with math…"

"Yeah, what about it?"

"Well, I need you work a little harder," Mrs. Wilson said, "I looked at your last math test and you received a D-. Your mother wants you to work harder or else you become king." Inuyasha's jaw dropped.

"What, you got to be kidding me!"

"I'm sorry Inuyasha, that is what your mother said, so I want you to work a little harder, alright?"

Inuyasha nodded. "Good…you may be excused…" Inuyasha left Mrs. Wilson still in shock.

'What…not become king? I can't believe my mom said that," Inuyasha thought. 'I want to become king…I promised my father that I would become king in his honor and I can't break that promise…but…how will I pass math?" Inuyasha thought and thought and finally found a solution. Inuyasha looked at Kagome who was sitting with her friends at the lunch tables and smirked 'I'll go ask Kagome for help…'

….

Kagome sighed to herself. "Great, this all that I needed…lots of homework…" Kagome said to herself as she packed her things to go home. After she packed her things, she headed out the door. Kagome was on her way home until she heard a voice that annoyed her.

"Yo girl! Kagome turned around and saw Inuyasha leaning against the school's building wall with his arms crossed. Kagome turned away and started to walk away, she was still mad at him for being mean to her. Inuyasha ran after her and tried to stop her.

"Please stop, I have something to ask you…" Inuyasha begged.

"What do you want from me now, leave me alone!" said Kagome stopped walking and crossed her arms.

"I…I…I need help with Math."

"Well too bad because I'm not gonna help you out this time."

"Come on please, I'm begging you, if I don't pass math then I don't become king…"

"I don't care!" Kagome started walking again until Inuyasha stopped her by going in front of her.

"Please, I need to become king, I promised…"

"Promised who?"

"…my father…."

Kagome was surprised when Inuyasha wanted to do something for someone. Kagome then thought what she said to Sango earlier.

"Come on Sango, give him a chance!"

Kagome then took a deep sigh. "Alright…"

Inuyasha then smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"Yeah, no problem, just meet me at the park after school tomorrow…"

"Alright."

"Okay, see you tomorrow…." Kagome then left to go home.

'Dad…I will become king…for you…and my true love from long ago…'
