Chapter 6

**Kag Pov**

"You what!" I pulled the phone away from my ear because I could feel it ringing. Why did she have to yell so loudly?

"Sango...shut up! My family is going to hear you! They'll think that somebody is robbing me with you yelling so loudly." Geez!

"Well I'm sorry, but I mean it is not everyday that you find out your best friend kissed her destined love." I could feel my face getting red. "Shut up! Kouga is not my destined love. It just happened on accident."

"Riiiigghhht, because people kiss other people on the LIPS accidentally." I could hear that annoying sarcasm in her voice.

"I-it was an ac-accident." I pouted. I didn't like it when she does this.

"Come on, admit it. You like him."

I kept shaking my head, "I don't like him. You know that I wasn't feeling my best that day. He just got me when I was weak."

"Got you when you were weak...Kagome that is just your excuse. You kissed him back and you know it." But I didn't mean to, I wanted to say. "Whatever, the problem is that I don't like him."

"But don't you like him a bit better now, since you guys kissed."

"Honestly, I don't know. I mean I never really thought of him as more of an acquaintance or a not close friend. I never liked him."

"Well you need to figure out something soon because you know that he likes you. I mean he already asked you out once."

"Yeah, yeah, I know. I just...I just don't know."

"Well do you know what I think?"

"No, but I'm pretty sure that you are going to tell me."

"I think that you should go out with him and see what it feels like. If you are unsure of your feelings, how about you hang out with him more. You know go on dates, hang out together-"

I was getting irritated. "Stop! I don't think I can do that."

"Kagome, you guys are perfect together. I think you were destined for each other. I mean I think that I call that kiss fate. It's sooooo romantic. He is your prince and you are his princess. He can come in your window, sweep you off your feet, he will take you somewhere romantic, then you guys will..." I just laid the phone on my bed. Sango could talk forever in her fairy tail talk. *Sigh* "Hey Kagome. Are you listening?"

I picked up the phone again, "Of course I am listening, every word."

"I can tell from the sound in your voice that you weren't. Kagome you just need to try and see. And...what! No, I'm on the phone! Alright, fine!" I could hear screaming in the background. "Sango, is something wrong."

"Yeah, my mom needs me. I'll see you at school tomorrow. Remember we are not done talking about this."

"Wait-" She hung up before I got a chance to say anything.

I laid the phone on the table and just dumped myself on my bed. My head felt like it was going to explode with all the things that is going on in my life. Kouga is nice, but he is just not my type. However, he is better than that stupid Inuyasha that won't even tell me what was going on, but instead pushes me away. I hate to admit it, but I still have feelings for him. Shit! I kept scratching my head in frustration.

"Ahhhhhh." I covered my mouth to hide my big yawning. I felt my eyes fill with water. I pulled my covers over me. I laid my head on my pillow. I drifted away from this world and fell asleep.

"Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep..."

"Ugghhh." I covered my ears to make that irritating noise go away. But it didn't. "Beep, beep, beep..." I slammed the clock with my fist. I smiled, "Ahh, silence."

I stood up and ran to my closet to put my uniform on. I ran downstairs and just sat down at the table. I grabbed a big plate and filled it with 8 pancakes. I took the syrup and drenched all the pancakes in it until it went soggy. Then I snatched the whipped cream and sprayed it all over the pancakes until you couldn't see the pancakes anymore. I felt and heard my stomach growling. I took my fork and knife. I breathed in the aroma and let it out. "Mmmmhhmm. Pancakes." I licked my lips and started stuffing my face with pancakes.

"Oh my gosh, Kagome! Stop stuffing yourself with pancakes. It will make you fat." I didn't listen to my mom and just kept eating pancakes.

"Don't worry mom, Kagome is already fat that eating these pancakes won't make a difference." I stopped eating my pancakes and hit Shouta on the head. "Oww!"

"That's what you get little brother!" I turned away from him and kept eating my pancakes.

"Kagome, are you sure you are alright?

"I'm fine!"

"Just be careful, you don't want to get yourself sick."

I just shrugged and kept on eating my pancakes.

I kept holding my stomach, so it would try and ease the pain. "Ugghh!" My head was starting to hurt and I could see the room getting blurry. I slammed my head against the table, which made my head sting. "Oww! Why did I have to eat so many pancakes!" I could my mom saying I told you so.

"Kagome, I think that you should have listened to your mom. You look awful."

I was getting annoyed, "Well that's just great Sango. Everyone wants to hear that from their best friend."

"Well I am just being honest. You look really pale. Are you sure you are going to be alright?"

"I'm going to be fine. Remember I am tough you know." She just patted my head and said, "Sure you are."

I stuck my tongue out. Then I felt another pain in my head and stomach. My stomach was going to explode. "Sango," I grabbed her hand, "make my pain go away."

She snatched her hand out of mine. "No! You're the one who got in this mess. Besides we have more important things to deal with."

"Like what?"

Sango turned away and started doodling in her notebook. When she was done she turned the notebook so it was facing me. I studied the notebook and saw hearts drawn everywhere. "Sango, what the hell is this?"

"This is your plan to happiness with Kouga."

"Oh please not this again." I just faced the other direction to avoid talking about this subject.

She put her hands on my head and made my face, face her. "Since you didn't know exactly what to do last night, I thought that maybe you needed a little push. Look here." I looked at the section she was pointing at and saw it say, 1st step: Friendship. "To become Kouga's girlfriend, you need to first be friends with him. Here I outlined things to accomplish the first step. Start hanging out with him more. You know get to know him. Then you move into the friendship zone. That is when you start to make him realize that you don't just want to be is friend that you want to be-"

I felt my head hurt even more. "Sango, I appreciate what you are trying to do. But the thing is that I just don't like him that way."

I heard Sango let out a huge sigh. "Kagome, I know what this is all about. You still can't get over him."

I felt my heart sank. "No, it's not about, " I gulped, "Inuyasha. This is just about Kouga. I seriously don't have any interest in him."

"Whatever floats your boat." Sango smiled and just turned around in her chair and started doodling in her notebook again. This is going to be a long day.

The bell finally ringed. I packed my books into my bag and waited for Sango to gather her things. "Well, that had to be the most boring class ever."

"Kagome, you think every class is boring."

"Well that is just because school in general is boring. I think it is just a waste of my time."

"But we are going to gym now, and that is your favorite class."

I smiled a little, "Yeah, let's go." We headed out of the classroom and walked down the hallways to the gymnasium. But I felt a little uneasy because I knew who was going to be in my class, Kouga. And I didn't want to see him right now. We entered the gym and I just froze. I saw Inuyasha. He was talking to Kikyou on the other side of the room. She was laughing really hard, maybe a little too hard. I felt my heart drop. Then Inuyasha turned away from her and stared at me. His face didn't freeze, but instead he just looked at me and turned away then kept talking to Kikyou. That stupid Inuyasha! Why wouldn't he look at me?

I turned away and just faced what was in front of me. I realized that Sango wasn't in front of me anymore, but she was by Miroku. I ran towards them to catch up to where they were standing. "Sango, Miroku."

"Yeah," they both said in unison. "L-look o-over there." I pointed at the direction where Inuyasha was.

Miroku said, "I have seen him before. I just remember that he was sitting by Kikyou during lunch. He seems cool."

"Miroku, you idiot." She slapped him on the arm. "That's the guy."

"Who is the guy."

"Remember I was telling you about a guy and Kagome."

"Yeah."

"Well that is the guy, over there, I was talking about."

"Oh, well what's the big deal? Kagome, why don't you just make up with him?"

I just shook my head, "It's not that easy. I already decided that I was going to ignore him."

Miroku just looked more confused, "I don't get girls."

Sango just nodded, "And you never will. Kagome, I think that you should just forget about Inuyasha and start thinking about Kouga. Just look at him, he is smiling at you. He is a total sweetheart." I looked towards Kouga's direction and sure enough he was smiling at me. My cheeks were starting to get red form embarrassment.
Then I heard a whistle going off.

I saw the gym coach standing on a stool to make himself look like he was in charge, well he was. He took a megaphone and talked through it, so that everyone could here what he was saying. "Okay, we are going to pair up the humans and the demons together. You guys are going to go one-on-one combat with each other. Demons, you are going to help the humans defend themselves if they were in fact real danger." Everybody just groaned, mostly the humans. "Come on you guys! This is a great way for you to learn a few tricks. You will get to choose your partner. You guys will be working outside. Okay, start!"

Everybody started to scrabble and get their partners. I didn't know who to pair up with because Sango, Miroku, and I were all humans, so we couldn't pair up with each other.

"Kagome, do you want to be my partner?" I already know who was saying this. "Kouga...um," I didn't want to be mean, and I think it would be nice if I got to know him better. I mean we did kiss after all. I sighed, "Sure." He smiled back and we both walked outside and wandered around trying to find a spot. When we finally found a spot, I turned to face him and he faced me. I looked around to see where Sango went. I looked behind Kouga and saw that she was smiling and giving me two thumbs up. And I saw her mouth, "Go for it!" Then she was making all sort of gestures that was making her look like an idiot. Then she started to make kissy faces at me. What is she doing? I just mouthed back at her, "Shut up, you idiot!"

"Uh, Kagome are you okay?" I looked back at Kouga to see him look confused.

"Yeah, I am fine. Heh, heh, heh..." I was just fake laughing that sounded like I was the idiot. "Okay, let's get this started."

"Look, if you don't want me to be your partner, I can just go away."

I shook my head, "No, no. I do want to be your partner. I was just a little distracted. I have a lot of things going on right now."

"I know. To be honest I wanted to be your partner because I wanted to talk to you about what happened the other day."

I knew this was going to happen. "Oh, um. What is there to talk about?"

I looked at Kouga and saw his face looking sad. "I know that it wasn't right for me to kiss you like that when you were not yourself. I think we should just start over and not worry about that kiss. So by starting over, I think that we should go to the movies together."

"Well..." He is being really nice and I have to admit that Inuyasha wouldn't ever to something like this. Maybe I should give him a chance. "Um, okay. I think starting over is a good thing."

"So how about this Saturday. Tomorrow."

"Yeah, that's great." He smiled back and said, "Okay, let's begin." He got into a fighting stance and mirrored his form. "Ready?" I just nodded.

Then he came at me with amazing speed. Oh great, I'm in trouble.

"I failed. I totally failed."

"No, Kagome you did great. You just need to improve a little bit."

"Oh please, I did horrible. I didn't even block your attacks once. You are really good."

"Yeah I know."

"Hey, don't get conceded just because you won one fight"

"I will have you know that I haven't lost a battle once."

"Oh, so you were already conceded."

"I'm not. It's not my fault that I am totally awesome."

"Riiiggghht, you're not conceded at all."

He grinned at me, "I was just kidding. I thought you did great."

"Yeah right. But I will get you next time."

"I will be waiting." We headed back inside because gym class was over. "Bye Kagome." I just waved back as I was running towards the girls locker room. I saw Sango already dressed with her bag in her hand.

"So...how did it go?"

I blushed a little remembering that I had a date with him on Saturday. "It went fine."

"Fine. Tell me what really happened. I saw you two talking at the beginning for a while. What did you guys talk about? Are you guys together?"

"No, we are just..."

"Just what?"

"We are going on a date this Saturday."

Sango threw her hands in the air and said, "Yes! Even better. Now your romantic relationship can go slowly, which is better than being girlfriend and boyfriend right off the bat." What have I done?

**Inu Pov**

"So I was thinking that we should hang out sometime. I mean I know we just met, but I want to get to know you." Kikyou and I were in the gym waiting for the gym coach. I didn't really want to talk to her, but she just came up to me and started talking to me. I didn't have a choice. Besides, I only have come to school once this week, so I don't really know a lot of people.

"Look Kikyou, I don't really know you that well, so I think it is just best that we only hang together at school."

She frowned, "Well I just want to get you to know you better." Maybe I was just being cruel, but my demon sensed something wrong with this girl.

Suddenly out of nowhere, she started to laugh hysterically. Is this girl alright? I didn't say anything that would make her laugh, so I looked around the gym. Then I saw Kagome staring at me. Kagome. So she wouldn't notice that I was uneasy or anything, I just blankly looked at her without any emotion. Then I turned back to Kikyou who was still laughing pretty hard and then finally stopped. "What was so funny?"

"Um...nothing." I looked back to where Kagome was and I saw that she wasn't looking at me anymore and was running towards a girl and a monk. I tried to ignore them, so I just kept talking to Kikyou about random things. I didn't want Kikyou to find out that something was going on between Kagome and me. Then I heard an annoying whistle blow. I felt both my ears twitch from the sound of that whistle.

He was standing on a brown stool that made him look high and mighty and make him look like he was in control. But I bet he was just scared of us and that's why he was on the stool. What a wimp!

The gym coach grabbed the megaphone he was holding and started to shout in that stupid thing. "Okay, we are going to pair up the humans and the demons together. You guys are going to go one-on-one combat with each other. Demons, you are going to help the humans defend themselves if they were in fact real danger." Then all the humans groaned. Guess they didn't want to go up against one of us. "Come on you guys! This is a great way for you to learn a few tricks. You will get to choose your partner. You guys will be working outside. Okay, start!"

Before I could even get away from Kikyou, she grabbed my arm and we both headed outside. Man, when am I going to get this chick off of me? I wanted to just pull away from her and choose another partner. But I looked around and everybody was taken. I just sighed at my unluckiness.

"Inuyasha, I'm not very good at fighting, so please try to go easy on me." Across from us, I saw Kouga and Kagome, plus that girl and monk again. I looked at Kagome and saw her mouthing to her friend that was with the monk. That girl was just jumping up and down and doing all different kinds of things. I think she was trying to tell Kagome something. But Kagome just looked as confused as I was.

Then Kagome and Kouga started talking. I couldn't help but get annoyed. My mind flashed back to when they were kissing. I wanted to punch Kouga in the face and just take Kagome as mine.

I made my ears listen, so I could here what they were talking about.

"I know that it wasn't right for me to kiss you like that when you were not yourself. I think we should just start over and not worry about that kiss. So by starting over, I think that we should go to the movies together." What! That stupid wolf!

"Well...um, okay. I think starting over is a good thing."

"So how about this Saturday. Tomorrow."

"Yeah, that's great."

My heart just sank and anger filled inside me realizing that they were going on a date together. A date! I felt my jealousy overtake my body. It frustrated me that I was jealous. "Um...Inuyasha. Are you ready to start?"

My mind went back to reality. "Uh, yeah."

After gym, Kikyou and I headed towards the cafeteria. Kikyou sat down and saved me a spot too. I went in line and got ramen noodles for lunch. For some reason, I began to like ramen noodles.

I sat down at the spot that Kikyou saved me. I just began slurping my noodles. Then Kikyou began to ramble on and on about how we should hang out more. I just ignored her and I looked around the lunch room to find Kagome. I didn't know why, but I wanted to know what she was doing. She was talking to that girl and monk again. Mostly the girl and Kagome were talking about something. Then from time to time I saw the monk look around and study over girls. The girl with the high pony tail just slapped him really hard. I grinned a little.

I turned back to Kikyou who was still trying to talk to me. "Inuyasha, I really want to spend time with you."

"Kikyou, I am not in the mood to hang out with anybody. I have a lot of stuff going on this week." She just returned to eating her sandwich.

The rest of the classes were none with Kagome or with Kikyou, so it was good and bad. In all of the classes, I could only think about Kagome. It still annoyed me that I was thinking about her. I mean I promised myself that I wouldn't talk to her again, but that didn't work out. I just wanted this feeling to go away.

I was heading to my last class, History. The class that I had with Kagome, Kikyou, and Kouga. My life is pretty unlucky, but I guess it is okay since I won't be living that long.

I entered the classroom and took my seat that I was assigned. I saw Kagome walk in with Kouga right behind her. I felt a growl coming from my chest. I hated to see them together. They just talked for a bit and sat into their seats. I didn't want Kagome to know I was looking at her, so I just stared at the desk.

"Alright, class." I looked up to see a teacher holding a few papers in his hand. "This is your last day that you are going to be working on your projects. They are going to be due this Monday. I expect to see excellent work, since this counts for 30% of your guys' grade. Okay work time starts now."

I saw Kagome, who was across the room, and she was just sitting there not moving. I'm guessing that she wants me to walk over there. I granted her wish and walked over there. I pulled up a chair and sat in front of her desk. We just sat there in silence for what felt like hours. I hated this silence, "Can we get started? I don't want to get a bad grade and I'm guessing that you don't either."

She just sighed and looked up from the ground. "Fine. So do you even know what we are supposed to do for this project?"

"Uh, no."

"Figures. We are supposed to pick a subject that we have studied this year."

"Well I haven't been here the whole year, so I don't know what you guys have studied."

"I was thinking that we could do Feudal Japan Era. It is pretty interesting and there are all kinds of stories about demons and humans together."

"Okay. I'm fine with whatever."

"Let's pick that subject then. Since you haven't been around very much-"

"Not my fault."

She glared at me and just continued, "We need to get together at the library to gather some information."

"Sounds good, how about Saturday?"

"Actually Saturday is not good for me. What about Sunday?" Is that date really that important? Why doesn't she just ditch the guy? I wanted to ask her, but then she would know that I was listening to their conversation.

"Sunday is fine." I heard the bell ring. Kagome just started packing her bags up. When she was done. she started to head towards the door. "See you Sunday."
She quickly walked out of the classroom with Kouga trailing behind her. I felt anger fill inside me again. What is so great about that stupid mangey mutt?

I looked around the room and saw Kikyou packing books into her bag. I walked towards her and I saw her smile. "About hanging together, do you want to go to the movies tomorrow?"

She looked a bit shocked, but excitement covered her face. "Absolutely."

"See you then." I grabbed my bag and walked out the door. I went outside and breathed in the smell of flowers. I walked towards the direction of my house.

In a couple of seconds, I felt myself smirking.

Here is chapter 6. I know that this took me a really really long time to write. When I wrote the last chapter, I thought I was going to update a lot faster. But a lot of things came up. I had a lot of finals that I had to take and I was just wrapping up school. I'm very sorry! I will try to make them faster. Thank you for reviewing my story, it means a lot. I hoped you liked the chapter. = D
