Back to School
Kagome was currently sitting in at her vanity and staring at herself in the mirror. She couldn't stop thinking about yesterday and had to admit that she was nervous about school today. Come on, Kagome! Get a hold of yourself! You've battled countless amounts of demons and helped defeat Naraku! You are a warrior! There's no reason to be nervous about seeing some boy at school! But nonetheless she gulped nervously before getting up and going into her closet. For some reason she just couldn't pick out the right outfit.
"Ughhh why am I even thinking so much about this?! It's not like there's any chance for anything between us! He just sees us as friends. We're just friends." She looked into the mirror and smiled. Friends. "Arggg!" She cried. Her smile turning into a frown. "Then why do I feel like I have five thousand butterflies in my stomach when he's around?"
"Kagome is you're done screaming at yourself it's time to go to school!" Sota said from downstairs.
"Coming!" She said running into her closet and deciding on a white, silver, and black tunic shirt, black foot-less tights, and silver gladiator sandals. She rushed down the stairs and met Sota by the door who was giving her a strange look. "What?" She asked, grabbing her purse and keys and heading out the door with Sota.
They arrived to school in a 3 minutes flat. Kagome parked her car next to Edward's Volvo and saw that he was just getting out of his car as well.
"Why hello there mademoiselle." He said, kissing her hand and Kagome was very glad that she no longer had the ability to blush. Sota rolled his eyes and walked to his class.
"Shall we go to class?" He asked and she sighed.
"Well I guess we better." She laughed and they walked to their first class together. They sat down next to each other and talked about finishing the basement.
"The furniture should be arriving today. My mom will have them bring it into the basement and we can rearrange it later." She said and he nodded. There was a sudden announcement over the PA system.
"This is a reminder that the fall formal dance is coming up next weekend! Each day leading up to the dance will be a different theme day! There are posters going up around the school for the themes. Grab a date or come with a friend! Just make sure you're there!" the voice said before cutting off.
"There a dance?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah there are only two. The fall formal and the prom. The school doesn't have enough money in it's budget to do more than that." He said.
"Wow…I've never been to a school dance before. With traveling to uh…you know." She said longingly. He stared at her and a slow smile spread across his face.
"Well then, perhaps you would like to accompany me to the dance?" He asked. She gasped silently and turned to him, wondering if he was joking but there was only a small sincere smile on his face. One spread across her lips to match hers.
"Sure, I'd like that."
At lunch Alice was practically bouncing in her seat when Kagome and Sota walked up to them.
"Someone's extra bouncy today." Kagome said as they sat down.
"Did you see the posters for the theme days?" She asked and Kagome shook her head. "Well I already know them! I had a vision a while back and I had no idea what it was about but now I know! Next Monday is fifties day, Tuesday is wild kingdom day, Wednesday is dress like a teacher day, Thursday's futuristic day, and Friday's roaring twenties day!" Alice said excitedly and Kagome had a big smile on her face. "And I already have part of our outfits for Monday!"
"You do?" Kagome asked.
"Mmhmm. They're pink leather jackets with 'Pink Ladies' in black on the back. I though that would look good with some tight black pants and pink heels! We'll be the pink ladies!" She said. Kagome and Rosalie agreed that it was a good idea.
"So does that mean the guys will be the T Birds?" Rosalie asked smiling devishly. And all the guys stopped smiling at once.
"What? No way!" Emmett protested.
"Aw come on baby, you'll look sexy in a leather jacket." Rosalie pouted and Emmett smiled.
"Ok baby." He said sheepishly.
"Way to be strong Emmett." Jasper said rolling his eyes.
The Cullen's and Higurashi's were the picture of perfection. To outsiders, their lunch table was like a scene from a movie. They were all beautiful beyond belief, their laughs created a beautiful harmony between the guys deep voices and the girls high voices. The only flaw was that they had no food on the table in front of them. Even so, they were the envy and admiration of those around them. One pair of envious eyes came from a table across the cafeteria. One who used to belong to that table and felt she was replaced by someone more beautiful that her. There was no room for her at that table anymore. The most beautiful human would look plain in comparison to the occupants at that table. She sighed with resignation. This is the way things were going to be. She looked over on last time at what used to be her family.
It was the next Monday and Kagome was delightfully getting ready for school. It was fifties day and she was extremely excited. She never got to do things like this in Japan. She didn't have time to be a regular high schooler because she was too busy saving the world. Not that she was 'normal' now but at least she wasn't having to run back and forth between time periods anymore!
She was wearing black ultra-skinny jeans, a scoop neck off the shoulder black shirt, the pink ladies jacket, and pink pumps. She was sitting at her vanity putting on eyeliner, mascara, and pink lipstick.
"Perfect." She said, smacking her lips and smiling.
She went down stairs to see Sota standing in the kitchen with Kun-loon. She smiled and had to admit her baby brother looked pretty good. He was in a black leather jacket that said T Birds on the back in blue. All the guys were wearing those. Alice was all too happy to go out and find them jackets. He was wearing a white t-shirt under his jacket, blue jeans, white socks, and black shoes. He put grease in his hair and had managed a perfect Danny Zuko hair swirl.
"Ha wow Sota you look good! You're gonna have all the ladies drooling!" She said and he smiled.
"Thanks, sis. You look good too." he said smiling. Kun-loon looked at her children with immense happiness in her eyes.
"Oh my babies are finally having a nice normal life! Well as normal as you can get with being a vampire and all." She said laughing. She kissed her children goodbye and they were off to school.
When they got to school Kagome saw Alice and Rosalie in outfits like hers and the guys dressed like Sota.
"Why helloooo ladies." Emmett said, putting his arm around Rosalie.
They went their separate ways and Kagome and Edward noticed that they were getting a lot of looks and whispers. But they brushed it off and went about their day.
It was finally lunch time and Kagome was sick of the looks she was getting. She knew Edward knew what was going on being the mind reader he was but he refused to tell her supposedly because he wanted her to see it for herself. She had no idea what he was talking about but let it slide. So it was when she was conversing with Alice at their lunch table when Edward walked up to them and dropped a magazine in front of her face.
"What's this?" She asked.
"Turn to page twenty-one and twenty-four." was all he said. Curious, she turned to the first page he said and gasped. It was their add! She hadn't realized that it was going to be going out in magazines. But of course they would be. It is an advertisement after all. She just didn't think it was going to be so soon. Both ads took up two pages. The first one was the beach scene. The shot that was chosen was one where Kagome was laying on top of Edward. Her hair cascaded behind them, her lips were slightly parted and pouty, their faces were mere inches apart and they were looking deeply into each others eyes, her one hand was on his chest. One of his hands were on the small of her back and the other was hiking her leg up. All in all, it was a very sexy picture.
"Oh my." Was what she said and he indicated for her to look at the next one.
This one was less lust filled but still sexy. Kagome was sitting and Edward was kneeling in front of her. There were feathers in the air all around them. Edward was cupping Kagome's jaw and her back was arched so she could look up at him. They were smiling at each other and anyone looking at it could tell that the smiles were sincere, not just modeling.
"Wow." Kagome couldn't take her eyes off of Edward in the picture. It didn't do him justice at all but she almost forgot how beautiful he was with his shirt off. She looked up to see him staring at her intensely. Alice was looking back and forth between the two with a huge smile on her face.
"I know. At least now we know why everyone's staring at us." He laughed. Kagome nodded, mesmerized by him. She thought he was beautiful. She couldn't deny it anymore. She definitely had feelings for him.
