Chapter 7
[Kagome Point of View]
I rubbed my eyes as I woke up. I sat in bed for a minute, slowly waking myself up. Today was Friday, so just one more day and I was free for the weekend.
I rolled out of bed and dragged myself over to my now full closet. I sifted through the clothes and pulled out a yellow shirt and a pair of dark wash skinny jeans. I took my clothes and walked into the bathroom. I slipped into my clothes and brushed through my bed hair. I put a yellow headband in and left a little bit of my bangs out. I looked into the mirror and shrugged before walking back to my room.
Once in my room, I put on a pair of black flip flops and grabbed my cell phone off the bedside table. I jogged out of my room and into the Kitchen, grandpa staring at the paper while Souta sat across the table from him eating his cereal.
"Hey Souta, ready to go?" I asked. He nodded and placed his bowl in the sink. We grabbed our book bags from beside the door and walked out, waving bye to my grandpa.
"Are you getting picked up again today, Sis?" Souta asked, shrugging into his book bag.
"I don't think so," I said.
"K."
We had made it out of the driveway when Inuyasha's car pulled up.
"Wanna ride?" He asked. I looked over at Souta.
"I stand corrected."
I looked at Inuyasha and nodded, climbing into the car.
We pulled into the school parking lot, kids scattered around. Souta jumped out of the car and ran to greet his friends, turning to wave good-bye at me.
"Hey Kagome," Inuyasha said. I turned and looked at him.
"Yea?"
"Will you let me tell Miroku and Sango?" He asked. I nodded.
"Of course."
He smiled slightly.
"Thanks."
We both opened our car doors and crawled out, making our way towards Sango and Miroku who were talking idlely.
"Hey," I greeted, smiling. Sango looked at me and smiled.
"Hi."
Miroku looked at Inuyasha and over at Kikyo who was talking to her followers.
"Not hanging out with the girlfriend today?" He asked. Inuyasha sighed.
"We broke up." He said. Miroku and Sango's eyes widened.
"Why?" They asked. He shrugged.
"I don't want to talk about it, okay?"
Miroku and Sango nodded, dropping the subject. The bell rang, and we all walked towards first period. Once we were inside, we sat down. I took my usual seat in between Inuyasha and Sango while Miroku sat next to Inuyasha. The teacher walked in, and the announcements came over the speaker.
"Good morning students of Tokyo High. This Friday morning, I would like to announce that the next track meet for the human team is scheduled for next Friday after school. It will be against Matsudo High. And further announcements, there will be a dance also next Friday right after the meet. Nothing to formal please. Have a good Friday and enjoy the weekend."
The speaker clicked off and the girls in the room suddenly bubbled with anticipation.
"Sango, we HAVE to go shopping!" I said, grabbing her arm. She nodded.
"How about you come by my house at 4 and we can go before my party?" She asked. I nodded.
"I have to help clean house, but I'll be by as soon as I'm done!" Sango smiled and we giggled before facing forward to look at the board.

I was listening to the teacher's lecture on formulas when a folded sheet of paper landed on my desk. I looked over at Miroku who looked at me and down at the note before back at this notebook. I sighed and opened the note, trying my best to keep it from making too much noise.
You should take Miss Kagome to the dance. It said in Miroku's sloppy handwriting. I rolled my eyes and clicked the end of my mechanical pencil.
And y? I wrote back before shoving the paper back to Miroku's desk. He scribbled on it and pushed it back.
Because you like her and she's nice and pretty and it could help you get over Kikyo.
I pursed my lips at that. I wasn't sure I liked Kagome in the way Miroku was talking about, but she was undeniably pretty and she was rather nice…
I scribbled down my reply and slid it to Miroku.
I'm not gonna use her like that. Like you said, she's nice, and she deserves better than that.
Who says you're using her?
No one, but besides, what makes you think she'd go with me even if I did ask?
Oh, I have my sources.
I don't think I want to know.
I slid the paper across the desk and the teacher looked up.
"Do you have something you wish to share with the class Mr. Inuyasha?" He asked. I shook my head.
"Nah, I'm good."
The teacher narrowed his eyes before turning back around to the board. I sighed in relief as Miroku passed me back the note.
But you should seriously ask her.
I sighed and wrote down my answer. I pushed the note to Miroku just as the bell rang. I gathered my stuff and walked on out to my next class, not saying anything to anyone. I wasn't going to stay for Miroku's answer to my reply.
Ok

I walked into English, wondering why Inuyasha had left so quickly. I didn't see him, so I went to sit where I usually sat. I set my books down and stared at the board.
After a few moments, Inuyasha came into the room carrying a bathroom pass. He set the pass on the teacher's desk and looked up, his eyes locking with mine. I simply smiled and he made his way to my seat.
"Can I sit here?" He asked, motioning to the seat beside of me.
"Sure."
He dropped his books on the table and sat down beside of me. We sat there in silence for a minute before he turned to face me.
"Hey Kagome I was wo—"
"Mutt, what are you doing in my seat?" Koga asked, coming up from behind Inuyasha.
"We don't have assigned seats, so I can sit wherever." Inuyasha told him. Koga huffed.
"Well I've sat there for…"
Inuyasha cut him off. "For 3 days, now go on somewhere."
Koga mumbled something about mutts and tranquilizers as he walked to sit in the now empty seat next to Kikyo, seeing as that was the only one open. I looked at Inuyasha.
"You were saying?" I asked. He looked at me before realizing what I was talking about.
"Oh… it was nothing."
I nodded and the teacher walked in and class began.
Throughout class, Inuyasha would constantly start to say something, but then dismiss it. It was rather annoying after he'd done it 15 times or so throughout the class period.
"Hey Kagome?" He asked. I didn't even look up from my paper I was working on.
"Yes?"
"Would you… never mind."
"Spit it out Inuyasha," I said, trying not to sound rude. He simply shook his head and continued on his worksheet. The bell rang and everyone began packing up their things. After Inuyasha had everything together, he walked around the table so that he was closer to me. He leaned down and whispered in my ear.
"I wanted to know if you'd go to the dance with me."
But before I could even give him an answer, he took off into the battle field called a hallway. I sighed and continued packing my stuff, but I couldn't help the ecstatic grin that spread on my face.

I sat in my third period class, watching as the countless people filed in from the hallway. Suddenly my cell phone buzzed in my pocket and I pulled it out, careful not to have it noticed by the teacher. I smiled when I read it (even though I wasn't sure why), and was still slightly smiling when I put it back in my pocket.
It was from Kagome, and it had only been one word.
Yes.
There was 7 :) Hope you enjoyed it! R&R!
