Chapter 2

Second time round

"I can't believe that jerk!"

"Who… What, Kagome are you still angry about that guy that you ran into?"

"HAY SANGO! You're meant to be on my side not his!" She then stole some of Sango's chips that she had for lunch. Kagome was starting to become annoyed at her bestie for standing up for that jerk, he was the one who spun around unexpectedly and bumped into her.

"I am, but his was just standing there minding is own business that's all I've gota say… Hay Give them back Kagome, they're mine!"

Sango tried to grab her stolen chips for across the table but Kagome new as much and scoffed them all down. "NOPE"

"Hump… So what do you have next chip thief?" I will have to get back at her some way or another… I'll do it after school when we go to her place. She mentally patted herself on the back for being such an evil mastermind.

"Well, lets see" I just had History, and it's a Monday morning?

"I believe that I have science next. Do you know if we got a room change at all?"

"How should I know? I'm not in your Science remember, I changed for that class last week."

"Oh, sorry. Why did you change again? It was something like they placed you in a wrong class so your whole timetable had to change"

"Yep… Art instead of HPE elective"

How could I forget that… Sango's always loved to do sport and get all hot and sweaty. Me on the other hand, I prefer to sit down with a book and read.

At that moment Sango stood up (as she new that look Kagome was giving her and it was the thinking one) and went towards the bin to place there rubbish into it.


DING... DONG... DING

"I'll see you tomorrow Kagome"

"What... You mean next break don't you?" All she sore was a high pony moving side to side before it disappeared.

Sango quickly spun around just in time to she the other girl face of disappointment.

"Come on Kagome... I told you yesterday. This afternoon my family and I are going off for a holiday. Don't worry it's only for a week."

"Not fair Sango!"

"Ha… well your going to have to deal with it until next week."

Kagome just signed away her anger and wish her good luck and safe travels. They shared a short good bye then went their speared ways.


"So have you thought of a shrine that will take you for a week?"

Inuyasha had gone to one of his favorite restaurant in the area after school and had Miroku come alone with him so he could do more bickering about the girl that ran into him earlier.

"Well there real isn't a lot of choice is there." There is only about three shrine in the area in total, but know that I think about it the third is a little run down so they will probably want me to do every thing… Crap that only leaves two then, I better make a good impression-

He was cut out of his thoughts when Miroku started to click his fingers in front of him. "What was that for?"

"I was talking to you but you weren't replying"

"Keh… Just thinking that's all" and he continued scoffing down the rest of his ramens that was starting to go cold, then waved for a waitress to come over towards them with another serving of it.

"Here you go Sir." Said the young waitress, placing a bowl in front of the black hair boy. "Would you like anything sir?" She turned her head towards the boy opposite him and found herself looking directly into his eyes.

"Have we met before?" Miroku was sure he had seen these brown eyes before, and surely he wouldn't forget the name to such a young beauty.

"Mir-o-ku?" No it couldn't be… if this is the boy that I sore at school today breaking me and… that means that this is…

"Now I remember. You're the girl that we encountered at lunch today. I'm sorry, but I believe I have forgotten your name miss."

"That is because I never told you it remember." Kagome was trying to keep her cool and not clawing the eyes out of the playboy in front of her. This was her first day working here at the restaurant and she only got the job because her mother and the shop owner Kaede knew each other. I can't blow this on my first day; I would be letting down my mother for say that I was such a hard worker.

In that instant Inuyasha decided to see what Miroku was talking about to the waitress and placed down his ramens, just in time to hear Miroku say something about the girl that walked into him at lunch.

"What!" he looked up just in time to see those brown eyes looking down at him again, the ones that resembled Kikyo so much. I wonder if they are related some how? NO… Kikyo is nothing like this girl!

"Ah, Inuyasha thank you for gracing us with your presents. Are we more important now that that bowl?" Miroku just smirked more when he got a 'Keh' from the boy opposite him. Knowing that he succeeded pissing him off a little.

Kagome's face was starting to loss its colour, here she was in front of the two people she didn't what to see, and Sango has already left. Meaning, she can't call her for help; even though she wouldn't be here at work to help her, she could at least call her and ask what to do. But that isn't gona happen, Kagome your on your own this time… I can do this, I know I can! Mentally physicked herself up, and was thinking for a good excuse to leave before this went south, she wished that Ayame one of the other waitress would see that she was having trouble and come over to help. But it looked like she had here own troubles; it looks like she was dealing with the chef again, for doing a wrong order probably.

"Well, I better be getting back to work anyway… I hope you enjoy the rest of your day." Yeah, you go girl, simple and sweet!

"Ha, I haven't been enjoying anything today, I don't think it is suddenly going to change." Inuyasha then went to continue scoffing down the rest of his food, which he surprisingly found empty. "Great… Were do you think your going? You still haven't apologized for today girl!" He reached out and grabbed her wrist to pull her back to their table and waited for her to reply.

Kagome was just about ready to loss her temper. It was taking all of her will not to attack this boy. She tried to get her wrist out of his grasp but failed. "Let go!" She spun around just in time to see a smirk appear across his face before it vanished. What is with this guy, first he is angry with me and now he is enjoying messing with me?

"I'm still waiting." I never would have thought it would be this fun to mess with this girl, and I don't even know her name?

"Fine! I'm sorry. There happy now?"

"Not yet… What's your name?" It was intriguing how much she reminded him of Kikyo but then not at the same time.

"It's Higurashi, Kagome Higurashi."

"Higurashi." He then released his grip from her wrist.

"Well it was nice to meet you Miss Higurashi, we should hang out some time?" Miroku then made his presents realize by the two people in front of him.

"No thank you, I have a lot happing." Kagome was starting to cool off after Inuyasha release her wrist. "I better get back to work anyway, good bye Miroku and good bye Inuyasha." She then walked off towards the kitchen and disappeared out of the site of the two boys.

"I have to go to, Kikyo asked if we could meet after school today."

"Ok see you tomorrow Inuyasha, and don't forget to keep an eye out for a shrine."

Inuyasha then stood up, paid for his food and left the restaurant.

"I better be on my way to."
