"InuYasha!"
Someone loudly shouted my name, making Miroku and me turn to the person calling me.
A group of five guys were charging towards me, yelling and laughing. They reached me and one jumped on my back while the others patted me on the arm and we exchanged handshakes and greetings.
"Dude, fucking senior year! It's gonna be sick!"
"Man, you should see the girls. Summer really does make them hotter!"
"So how was your summer man?"
I flashed a satisfied and cocky grin at the one that asked the question, making the other guys holler in approvement.
"Nice man, nice! How many were there?"
I shrugged and crossed my arms.
"Hey, I don't kiss and tell."
"Bullshit!"
"Well okay, I will give you some details."
I leaned in, the group going silent as they waited.
"They were cheerleaders."
They hollered some more and we all began laughing.
"Ahem."
I turned to my side and took in Miroku's dry expression.
"Oh yeah man, sorry."
I turned back to the guys.
"Hey, hey! I want you boys to meet my partner in crime. This is Miroku."
The guys all took him in as one of us, greeting him and making room for him in our small circle. That's good. I was stressing that they wouldn't get along with Miroku.
"Hey InuYasha."
I turned around and came face-to-face with Kikyo and her friend Kagura.
The InuYasha smile was put into action.
"Hey there Kikyo, Kagura."
I made it painfully obvious that I was checking them out, fully appreciating their short skirts and tight tops.
"Damn girls. You both are looking fine."
They smiled coyly at eachother, then at me.
"Same to you, gorgeous."
"Oh hey, I want you ladies to meet someone."
I dragged Miroku beside me and put my arm around him.
"This is my man here, Miroku. He's new here."
Miroku shrugged off my arm and approached both girls, kissing each their hands and giving them his own smile. A Miroku smile. Damn. He's getting good.
"Morning girls. Nice to meet you."
Both girls reddened slightly, but smiled back at him.
"Nice to meet you too."
The bell for the start of school rang loudly, and I faced the girls again.
"Well looks like it's school time."
I moved in closer to Kikyo and placed my arm around her shoulders.
"How about you walk me to my locker."
"I guess I could do that."
She winked at me and we headed off, Miroku and Kagura following close behind, their hands wrapped in eachother.
