Chapter 2 - I Don't Need Your Help
InuYasha looked down at her. He raised an eyebrow and poked her still smiling form in the shoulder.
Kagome opened her eyes and looked at him questioningly. "Hmm?"
"I don't need your help, I found this class and my locker, on my own! I'm sure I can find the rest. I can take care of myself." He pulled away from her grip and left the room.
She stood there, watching him leave. "Humph!" Her face turned a light red color as she frowned and turned to get her things.
"I don't need to talk to him…I can tell he's rude!" She silently left the classroom and headed toward History class.

Chapter 3 - Invitation
"Open up, dammit!" InuYasha banged on his locker, "Open UP!"
"Need any help?" He turned to look at the source of the voice.
Kikyo.
"No, I can do it." He said sourly. And again he hit his locker; then kicked it.
"I don't think so," She moved towards him and pushed him aside.
"What's your combination?" She asked sweetly…but seductively.
"Why should I tell you?" He grumbled and looked away.
"So I can open your locker for you, silly!" She smiled sweetly. "Besides were friends now, aren't we?"
"Not really."
"Well, we could get to be…and good friends at that…"
She turned to him and…
'Did she wink at me?' He thought.
"Oh! Well then in that case, of COURSE I'll tell you!" He said sarcastically as he clapped his hands together and put on a fake smile.
Kikyo smiled. "Good, so what is it?"
"Why can't you people just LEAVE ME ALONE?" He grumbled loudly as he walked away.
Kikyo stood at his locker and frowned.
Her two 'lackeys', Mika and Suzaro went to her.
Mika had dark brown hair and tan skin. She had chestnut eyes that made you shiver. She was short and could get just about any guy she wanted…unless Kikyo wanted them..
Suzaro had dark, long, red hair and hazel eyes. She was very tall and very strong. She, like Mika, always listened to Kikyo, and usually protected her by scaring away 'threats', although Kikyo was strong enough to take care of herself. Suzaro was just a…back-up plan. Many of the students at Hotaru high feared Suzaro, but respected her as well.
"How'd it go?" Mika asked.
Kikyo kicked an open locker next to her. It closed with a loud slam.
Mika stepped back.
The boy to whom the locker belonged to looked up at Kikyo. He was a small, scrawny kid with browns hair and dark brown eyes. The poor thing looked frightened to death of Kikyo; most likely a freshman.

Once again, InuYasha was in Kagome's class for History, but this time she completely ignored him and didn't bother to try to catch up to him. Besides, lunch was next, she wanted to get her table before anyone else got it.
Kikyo was in Kagome's History class as well. She spent more than half then the period flirting with InuYasha, or at least, trying to flirt with him. He merely shook his head, or walked away, or said things like 'Go away!', 'I'm busy!', or 'Why don't you go bug someone else.
Kikyo kept flirting.

Kagome walked into the cafeteria and sat down at her usual table. No one was there yet, but she saw her friends Mya and Ayame coming to the table.
"Hey Kagome!" My looked around. "Where's Sango?"
Kagome shrugged. "I dunno. She said she'd meet me at lunch, maybe she got caught in hallway traffic or something." She shrugged again.
Ayame shook her head. "She's probably in detention…again."
Mya nodded in agreement.
Kagome frowned. "She did not! You guys keep coming to false conclusions every time she isn't here."
"And were always right!" Mya giggled. "Where do you suppose she is She raised an eyebrow.
"Like I said earlier, she's probably stuck in the hallway. It's always crowded by lunch time." Kagome replied as she crossed her eyes and turned her head to the side.
The other two girls sighed.
"Ok, so, where's Miroku?" My asked and turned to Kagome. "Hallway traffic?" She asked her friend with a giggle.
"No, not really. It's actually quite calm today." Said a smooth male voice behind them.
"Miroku-Kun!" Mya yelled with her hands up and a large grin planted on her face. She's had a crush on Miroku since 6th grade.
"Nice to see you too Mya." He replied nervously while in an embrace with Mya. He inches his hands closer to her bottom but before he could…
"Ahem" Ayame was glaring at him. She didn't exactly like him…in any way.
"Miroku, where were you?" Kagome questioned as Mya got off.
"I had to stay after class and ask about the test I missed Friday."
Kagome sighed. "Where's Sango? She stay behind too?"
"No," He shook his head and began walking away.
"Well then, where is she?"
"Detention." He was almost at the cafeteria doors.
"Where ya goin' Miroku-kun?" Mya called after him.
"Library!" Ye yelled back as he turned the corner.
"He reads way to much…" Kagome grumbled, angry that Sango was in detention…yet again!
Ayame shook her head after hearing Kagome, "No, research. Mr. Tanaka assigned a research paper on Picasso in Art class."
The other two girls made a silent 'Ooohh' sound.

InuYasha stepped into the cafeteria. He sniffed the air. "Mmm…pizza!" He hungrily ran in line.
He stopped and got a tray, then pizza, further down the line, he got himself a few more side dishes and a drink.
Kikyo ran up to him. "Hey Inu…"
"Yasha." He said in an annoyed voice.
Kikyo giggled and waved her hand.
He sighed.
"Inu, come sit with us!" She said after he paid.
"I'd rather not."
"Come on Inu!"
"YASHA!"
The cafeteria turned to look at them and Kikyo blushed.
While she was glaring at the people who were whispering and staring, InuYasha turned and walked away.
Kikyo turned around. "Inu! Wait!" She ran up to him and pulled him to her table. "Sit with me." She winked at him.
"I said no!" He whispered roughly, trying not make another commotion.
Kagome turned to see what was going on. She saw Kikyo holding on to InuYasha's arm, pulling him down to sit with her. Of course he fought back. He also stared intently at his food, trying to decide whether he should keep his food, or dump it on her.
She frowned and got up. Kagome walked over. "Kikyo." She crossed her arms and put her head up.
"Not you again!" InuYasha took one look at Kagome and turned around, seeing how Kikyo let him go…accidentally.
InuYasha walked off to an empty table and sat down. He sighed.
A few moments later Kagome came up behind him.
"InuYasha?" She put a hand on his shoulder. He jumped slightly at the sudden contact; almost making him choke on his food.
"Sorry to startle you, and sorry Kikyo bugged you," She said with that same smile as when they first met; warm, kind. She pointed to a seat next to him. "This seat taken?" She asked sarcastically with a giggle.
He glared at her and resumed eating his lunch.
"I'm sorry." She sat down.
They sat in silence for awhile, neither of them daring to speak, until…
InuYasha couldn't take it anymore. He dropped his pizza. "Whadda ya want?" he asked finally looking at her.
"Umm…I-"
"Haven't got all day."
She frowned. "Fine. Well," She started.
"My friends and I are going to the mall after school, and I was thinking maybe you'd like to come! You could meet some new people, and maybe make a friend or two, and it'll be fun. Miroku and Shippou'll be there too, so you don't have to worry 'bout being left with girls." She smiled again.
He looked at her, contemplating on whether he should go or not.
"If you don't want to then…"
"If I go, you promise you'll stop bugging me, both you and your friend?" He looked at Kikyo.
"Kikyo's not my friend!" She huffed.
"Whatever…promise that you'll leave me alone then?"
Kagome looked a little hurt, but she smiled nonetheless. "Yeah, sure…" She stuck out her hand again to ensure the deal.
He took it and shook.
Kagome stood up but quickly sat back down again, a grin on her face.
InuYasha looked at her with a confused look, and pizza in his mouth. "What?"
"Why don't you come sit with me, at my table, my friends are nice…sure it's all girls now…but that's all cause Miroku's at the library and Kazuo and Akito are sick." She laughed nervously. "I doubt you like sitting here by yourself, InuYasha."
"I don't mind."
Kagome stood up and walked around him. She grabbed his tray.
"Wha- What're you doing?" He stood in front of her.
She walked over to her table and put it down at a spot next to her.
"Hey, Kagome, I thought you brought your lunch today…" her friend Midori said.
Midori was a serious, smart girl. She got straight A's and loved to read. She had short, shoulder length, brown hair, brown eyes, glasses, and a slightly, deep voice. Her hobby was tennis, and she was pretty good at it too, last year she made the state champions.
"Oh! It's not for me, It's for InuYasha! Hmm?…" she looked around and didn't see him.
"The new kid?" Ayame asked.
Kagome nodded her head. "His names InuYasha, where'd he go…?" She spotted him sitting at his table again; alone.
She walked over to him, grabbed his arm and pulled him up off the chair. "Come along now InuYasha."
"Look, I'd love to, but I'd rather not, besides, I don't even know you…"
"I'm Kagome…remember?" She pulled him over to her table and pushed him down in a chair. She plopped down next to him and smiled.
InuYasha sighed and looked at all the girl, they all looked away as soon as his eyes met theirs. He looked at Kagome who was eating her lunch. He shrugged and finished eating.
Kagome quickly glanced at him as he ate. She smiled, knowing that she finally helped the new kid.

A/N: Chapter 3!…I would have updated yesterday, but SBC is SO slow! My computer is perfectly fine, we just got a new one, but the internet sucks. We had Charter an' stuff, but the problem is that ever since my dad switched to SBC for the parental control (I have a younger sister…10), it's been terrible. And they TRICKED us too! They said we could quit at any time, but in November, we tried to switch back, but they said that when we agreed to getting it, we signed an eight…or twelve month contract…so it's gonna stay till June…
But what ever…enough about me, WHAT ABOUT MY FIC?
