"Uhmm...I didin't mean to doze off. I was just really tired, I'm sorry." uttered Kagome.

"Shhh...it's okay" whispered Inuyasha.

Kagome quietly stood up and stretched, and Inuyasha, well he just continued looking at her. Kagome turned around and smiled at Inuyasha.

"Hey Inuyasha," Kagome said, walking towards Inuyasha, "Thanks."

"Thanks for what?" Inuyasha playfully said.

"Oh, you know what."

"Know what?" Inuyasha used his innocent voice.

"Whatever Inuyasha." Kagome gave up.

The two heard the bell, signaling that school was over. Students rushed over to their cars and sped off out of the "cursed" school. Inuyasha pulled Kagome's hand and lead her down the steps. After 250 stairs, they finally reached the ground floor. Panting, Inuyasha called Sango and told her to go to his house, and to bring Miroku with her.

"I thought we were just going to have a sleepover with just the two of us?" asked Kagome.

"Yeah, well I decided to get Hojo off of your mind. " replied Inuyasha.

"Okay, well, I'll meet you there. Let me just get my stuff at home, and prepare myself to whatever your planning. " Kagome announced.

Inuyasha hugged Kagome, as he always does afterschool, but this time she felt a little stiff. He waved a little goodbye. And walked towards his own car, which was parked at the east side of the school, where every teacher parked their cars. He was about 50 meters away from his car, when he spotted a figure leaning beside his car. He hesitantly walked towards it, ready for anything.

"Who are you? " called Inuyasha to the total stranger.

"Oh, hi Inuysha, I'm Hojo." replied the person who was leaning over his car.

Something bubbled up inside Inuysha, that made him want to hit this guy. He was the one that might steal his chance from being with Kagome, even though he doesn't realize it yet.

"Get off my car, you bastard!" yelled Inuyasha.

"Okay." reaplied Hojo nervously.

While Inuyasha and Hojo were meeting, Kagome sullenly drove home. She was not expecting Hojo to be there, she can't handle Hojo and Inu. She knew that someime she's going to have to let one of them go, even though how much it hurts for her to even think about it.

Kagome was feeling very tired, as she reached her street, she saw Souta talking to the girl who lives infront of them. They were both blushing and both eyes darted her way as she stepped out of her mustang.

"Hey sis." called Souta as he saw Kagome walk towards the house.

To his surprise, his usually happy-go-lucky sister just waved to him. She dargged her feet to the house and hugged their mom.

Meanwhile at Inuyasha's house...

Ding! Dong! whined the doorbell, Inuyasha smiled to himself and opened the door.

"Hey Ka-, Sango! Nice to see you." grinned Inuyasha.

Inuyasha threw Sango a hug, and told her to put her stuff in the room right beside the library. Inuyasha told his father, Inutaishou, that he would be in the second living room with his friends, doing a project. His father approved and told Inuyasha to leave him alone the whole night. And for sure, that would be no problem to Inuyasha and every one else.
