Short Tempered

Miroku sighed deeply as he walked out the class. It was almost Christmas and he still had yet to convince Sango to be with him. He thought of beating up her boyfriend but that only show he's a jerk since the boy can't fight. He moaned and bumped into someone. He looked down and saw Shima.

"Oh Shima." She looked down.

"Oh…Ohayo Miroku-Kun." He rubbed the back of his head. Their relationship was definitely headed for the rocks if it wasn't there already.

"Good morning huh?" He laughed nervously.

"Not for me." She admitted. She then looked at him with hurt brown eyes. "Miroku, do you love me?" She asked. Miroku looked away from her nervously he didn't know what to say. He knew his answer but he didn't want to hurt her anymore than he already had. Inuyasha saw the two and shook his head. Miroku always got himself into shitty situations with girls.

"Shima, you are a beautiful girl and-"

"I didn't ask what you thought of me. I asked do you love me?"

"No." He said honestly. Her eyes widened. His answer so was quick and subtle. Her eyes began watering.

"You like Sango don't you?" She snapped at him. He bowed his head to her.

"Gomen Shima."

"Whatever, I hate you." She ran off crying. He sighed. This is always the part he hated most about relationships but she had to know.

Inuyasha walked over to Miroku and clapped his hands.

"Good move Miro and hopefully by the time Christmas Break comes you'll be known as the biggest dick of the school."

"I get your point Inu but I had to tell her. I feel bad I was using her and she deserves more that."

"You tell her after three months of a relationship."

"Listen, it's better than six months isn't it?" He snapped. Inuyasha shook his head as they walked down the hall together. "Besides I need to get my shit together. I'm tired of being a player." Inuyasha raised his eyebrow at him.

"Say what? You haven't even turned eighteen yet dude and you're sounding like a 29 year old bachelor who's seen the light."

"At 29 I wanna be married." Inuyasha stopped walking and looked at him. He turned back and looked at his friend. "What?"

"What the fuck are you talking about?" Inuyasha walked up to him.

"Inuyasha…I'm in love with someone and I want to prove to them that I'm more than just a sex crazed lecher."

"You can start by changing that damn screen name. I feel weird when you write me." He shivered. Miroku began laughing.

"You just leave my screen name alone. I like it."

"I bet. So how are you gonna prove that you'll be true to her?" He had to hear this one.

"I won't talk to any other girls besides her and the friends I have. Like I won't let them jump all over me and no more kissing me and grabbing me. Stuff like that and I won't talk about sex around her." Inuyasha nodded his head.

"Sounds promising but can you stick to your word."

"Of course." He looked at his best friend. Inuyasha nodded his head again.

"Well, let me tell you this, I'm close with you and I'm close with Sango but if you make her cry even one time. I'll break your fucking neck." Inuyasha threatened him. Miroku nodded his head.

"I got ya, sheesh, you're so damn violent." He then paused and looked at Inuyasha. "Who said anything about Sango?" He began panicking. Inuyasha cocked an eyebrow up.

"Ahou, you think I don't know. I knew you liked her since the 8th grade and she's liked you since the 7th. That's why you two got all pissy when y'all began dating someone else."

"Wow, Inuyasha you're so observant." Miroku smiled. Inuyasha rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, well just don't forget my promise."

"You promised me something?" He looked confused.

"Yeah, a royal ass whopping if you hurt her."

"Oh yeah how can I forget." He laughed sheepishly.

Kagome left from the main office. She was so glad Rin dropped her lunch money off or else she would've been starving. She decided to take her time to her next class. She had a pass so she wasn't doing anything wrong.

"Hey." She turned around and saw a guy with long brown hair and cold light brown eyes. He smiled and walked over to her. "You're name is Kagome right?"

"Hai." She nodded.

"My name is Naraku you're new to the school aren't you? Well I guess you're not so new since its December now but you weren't here last year right?"

"Yeah." She nodded. He nodded his head.

"I see…"

Kagome stared at him. He was a handsome guy but something scared yet intrigued her about him.

"We don't have any classes together do we?"

"No, I'm in mostly honor classes."

"Oh I see…" She nodded.

"You're pretty close with Inuyasha huh? Are you two dating?"

"Not officially." She told him.

"I've known Inuyasha since sophomore year of high school and I think I should warn about him. He has a very nasty temper and has a tendency to be abusive. I don't know if physically but he can verbally especially towards his girlfriends. He was like that towards Kikyo and he's also a player. If he wanted to be with you he would've got with you by now. I believe he just wants to fuck you." He told her. Kagome looked down.

Naraku? Naraku? Why does that name sound so familiar? Naraku??? She sighed trying to think.

"WHAT THE FUCK?!!!" She heard and quickly turned around. She saw Inuyasha with a furious look on his face. Bankotsu, Miroku and Kouga tried holding him back but his eyes were locked on Naraku. He dragged the three guys towards Naraku. "WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING NEAR KAGOME?!!! YOU BETTER STAY AWAY FROM HER!!!! DIDN'T YOU FUCK KIKYO ENOUGH GO BACK TO YOUR FUCKING SLUT?!!!!" He roared.

Kagome covered her mouth. That was she guy. She knew she heard something about him. Her heart began pounding. She felt bad for talking to him but she didn't know. Sango ran out her class and ran over to them trying to calm Inuyasha down.

"STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ANYONE I KNOW!!! IF YOU COME NEAR HER AGAIN I'LL FUCKING RIP YOUR THROAT OUT!!!" He tried moving towards the now scared teen. Three security guards and five male teachers pulled him back.

"Inuyasha, calm down!" Sango yelled him. Naraku quickly walked away shaking. The faculty all knew about Inuyasha's history with Naraku and Kikyo which was why they tried keeping them separated.

"Inuyasha are you calm?" A security guard asked. He nodded his head and fixed his clothes. He grabbed Kagome's hand and dragged her off.

"Inuyasha, you're hurting me a bit." She said trying to loosen her hand from his clamp grip. Once he found a secluded spot he let her go.

"What the fuck Kagome, why were you talking to him?"

"I didn't know." She quickly said.

"You didn't know? How the fuck you didn't know?!!! I told you didn't I?!!"

"Telling me about someone doesn't describe how they look." She snapped.

"I know that fucker told you his name."

"He did but I couldn't remember where I heard it from. He was sitting there talking trash so I was just about to walk away and then you came."

"You were about to walk away huh? Or were you plotting behind my back to fuck him!!"

She pushed him making him stumble a bit. He looked at her in shock.

"What is your problem Inuyasha?!! Why would that even come out your mouth?!!!" She yelled trying to keep her tears as bay. "I don't understand you sometimes. I know I was in the wrong but you have to remember I'm still new to this school and I don't always remember everything. I would've figured it out sooner or later. But everything is happening so fast." She grabbed her head. "I just don't know anymore. I have two guys who tell me to be careful of you."

"Who told you that?"

"Hojo, who doesn't know you at all and Naraku who knows you but has bad blood with you. I would never believe anything him or Kikyo says but why would Hojo tell me to be careful of you?" She looked at him. Inuyasha gripped his fists trying to keep them from shaking.

"Because he likes you."

"But he's not like that."

"When a guy likes a girl and he wants her he will do anything. Even if that means his personality changes a bit."

She looked down and sighed. Inuyasha hugged her tightly. He rested his chin on top of her head.

"Gomen." He whispered.

"I'm sorry too." She cried against his chest.
