Chapter 1: Meeting You

"Come on, Kagome! We're going to be late for class!" Sango yelled.

Kagome rolled her eyes. She came to school a little late than usual and is getting some books she needs from her locker.

"Sango, you can go. The bell's about to ring any minute. I'll catch up," Kagome said.

Sango sighed. "But then you'll get into trouble."

Kagome shrugged. "Just go. It's not the first time."

Sango bit her lip but nodded and left.

Noticing her friend leaving Kagome tried to hurry up and get her books.

'God! I need to clean this locker,' she thought as she struggled to get a book from the jungle that was created.

She sighed in relief as she finally finished getting everything ready.

"Time to get to class before-"

RING!

"- the bell rings," she sighed as she walked to class hurriedly.

And being the clueless girl she is didn't notice the strong chest she ran into and dropped her books on the floor.

She growled in frustration and bend down to pick her books up.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Here, let me help you," said a masculine voice.

All she did was nod and didn't bother to look up.

'Stupid Souta. Didn't wake me up early. I'm late for class!'

Once she collected all her books and rose up, she grabbed the other books the person help her with.

"Thank you," she said as she finally looked up to see who helped her.

Raven hair pulled into a high ponytail, beautiful blue eyes, high cheek bones, straight nose, and nice lips. Her eyes also wondered down his body and let me tell you it's one to die for.

'He's alright,' she thought. 'I've seen better. But I've never seen him before, though.'

That's right. The town she lives in is small and everyone knows each other.

The boy infront of her smirked. "I'm new to this school and I don't know my way around," he started.

'And that would explain it.'

"Can you tell me where the office is?" he asked politely.

Kagome raised an eyebrow and looked at him like he was stupid or something. She raised her right arm and pointed next to her.

The boy looked where she pointed and almost feel down from embarrassment. The office was right next to them and the big sign saying, 'OFFICE' gives it away.

"I have to get to class, so if you excuse me," she said walking around him.

"Wait!" he yelled out.

Kagome turned with a curious look on her face. "Yes?"

The boy scratched the back of his head. "Um. .is it possible to know you're name? Mine's Kouga Wolf."

"Wolf?" Kagome questioned.

Kouga chuckled. "Yeah I know. Funny last name but yea. . . ."

Kagome nodded. "Kagome Higurashi," and she left.


"I'm so sorry I'm late!" Kagome said as she entered her class.

The teacher turned to her from the board she was writing on. "Take a seat Ms. Higurashi. Don't let it happen again. I could just kick you out like I do with the other students but since you do your work in class and are passing I'll let you slid this once."

Kagome nodded and walked to her seat. However before reaching to it which was just one seat away she was stopped by a hand on her wrist. She looked down and smiled when she saw two golden eye staring up at her blue ones. Those belonged to Inuyasha. He pulled her down to a small kiss which made the whole class whistle at them.

"Ms. Higurashi! Mr. Takahashi! Pay attention!" the teacher scowled and turned back to the board.

Blushing, she took her seat. She took out her pen and note book and was about to start taking noted when she found a sheet of paper on her desk.

Look up.

And she did.

Inuyasha, once again staring at her with the same expression.

"I love you," he whispered.

Kagome couldn't help but smile. "I love you, too."

"Ms. Higurashi. Mr. Takahashi! I will not-"

KNOCK

KNOCK

The teacher grumbled as she walked to the door and opened it.

Then she returned to the classroom. And she didn't look to happy.

"Class," she said annoyed, "we have a new student."

Kagome looked up at the irony.

And 'surprisingly,' Kouga entered the room.

His eyes lit up when he saw Kagome.

"You can introduce yourself," the teacher said rudely.

"I'm Kouga Wolf and as you know I'm new. I'm just want to do good and see if I graduate this year," he said.

The teacher nodded and gave him his new assigned seat. Which was not close to Kagome's cause her's is at the back of the room and his is in front.


School finally ended and Kagome was happy as hell.

She started walking toward the parking lot and stopped when she heard her name be called.

She turned.

Kouga was running towards her.

"Hi," she smiled as he came up.

"Sup," he smirked.

"Is there something you need?" she asked. She didn't want to be rude but she really wanted to leave.

However, Kouga didn't notice. "Um. . .I don't want to be any trouble or anything but the English teacher in our first period class thought if it was okay with you if you can help me catch up with the rest of the class?"

Kagome shook her head. "Nah. It's okay. I do these things all the time. We can go over my house after school tomorrow, okay?"

Kouga nodded. "I should go then. Thanks!" and he left.

Kagome watched him go. She shook her head and walked away to a car that seemed to be waiting for her with a certain someone in it.

She climb in the vehicle.

"Hey, wench," Inuyasha greeted.

Kagome smiled and leaned in for a chaste kiss. As she pulled away she pushed back a few strands of hair from Inuyasha's and pulled it behind his ear.

"Hey yourself," she said softly.

Inuyasha smiled. "We should get home before your mom shops off my head."

Kagome giggled and put on her seat belt.

The whole ride home they hold hands.


As she got out of the car, Inuyasha helped her with her book bag.

"Damn, wench. Do you have a dictionary in here or something?" he said as he noted the heavy bag.

"Two, actually," she said.

Inuyasha shook his head and ruffled her hair. "You're such a nerd."

Kagome pulled her head back and fixed her hair. She rested her hands on her hips and raised an eyebrow. "And you're not?"

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. He smirked as he wrapped an arm around her slim waist and pulled her towards him. He gently pulled her into a small passionate kiss.

Kagome closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck deepening the kiss with her tongue.

Yes, Inuyasha isn't the most popular guy in school and he isn't the nerdiest also. He's just an average guys with good boyish looks and smart. The kind of boy every girl would want. He's the polite type that knows how to treat a lady with respect. But. . .with Kagome he can be the opposite. He calls her names and makes fun of her, but at the same time he does care for her and loves her.

After pulling apart and smiling at each other. He finally gave her her book bag and started walking away.

"Oh! Inuyasha!" she called out.

He was close opening the door and looked up. "Yeah?"

"Tomorrow I'm going to tutor a kid from school so you don't have to take me home tomorrow, okay?" she said.

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. "Who?"

"Um. . .Shippo?" she said hoping that worked. If she tells him it's Kouga he'll probably have a fit. And Shippo is just some freshmen and is afraid of Inuyasha since he and Kagome are seniors.

Inuyasha studied her for a while and nodded. Hoping into the car and he left.

Kagome sighed. She hates lying to him, but if she tells him if it's Kouga then Inuyasha will want to come and keep on eye on him. He trusts her, but he won't trust Kouga and she doesn't want people fighting when she is trying to help others.

She unlocked her door and stepped in.

"I'm home!" she called out.

"Kagome!"

Kagome sighed. 'Great.'

Her mother.

Mrs. Higurashi came out and had a big frown on her face.

"Yes, mother?" Kagome asked.

Mrs. Higurashi looked at her daughter with disapproval. "Why did you turn down that nice boy, Hojo? He seemed like a nice young man."

Kagome bit her lips in frustration. "Mother! For the last time, please stop trying to set me up with boys when you know I have a boyfriend for the past five years!"

This referring to Inuyasha.

Mrs. Higurashi huffed. "You're still with that boy!" she yelled.

"Yes, mother! I am! And we both know I will not end it with him! I love him! Get that in your head! I love Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled back.

Mrs. Higurashi grabbed a fistful of her hair and sighed loudly in frustration. "That boy! Kagome! You deserve better!"

'Not this again,' Kagome thought.

"Mom, I do. I have him. He's my better you're speaking of," she said softly.

"For crying out loud Kagome. He doesn't know who his father is. He lives with his single mother and they are poor!"Mrs. Higurashi screamed.

Kagome shook her head. "Mom, money isn't everything. I know he may not have much, but he isn't as poor as you think."

"He takes you to eat hot dogs with him as dates!" she argues.

"Because I want to. He doesn't try to impress me with big fancy restaurants and such. I don't care for that. It's his affection that I want. Not his money or status. His smart, polite, caring, protective, and he loves me. What more do you want!?"

One thing left out of Inuyasha. Yes, he doesn't have as much money as Kagome's family and her family is a middle-class family. And he lives with his single parent mother. His father, all he know is that he left. And he doesn't care about him.

"Do you plan on marrying this boy, Kagome?" her mother asks.

Kagome bit her lips. "If he wants me to I will in a heart beat," she whispered.

Mrs. Higurashi shook her head in disapproval. "He won't be able to support you at all."

"His love is enough," Kagome said.

Mrs. Higurashi snorted. "Right," she said not believing her.

"Mom, this is my life. Who I want to be with is for me to decide, not your's," Kagome said defensively.

Mrs.. Higurashi narrowed her eyes. "That's what you think," she said as she left, heading towards the kitchen.

Kagome ran to her room and quickly locked the door. She jumped on her bed and sobbed. This has been going on since she was 16 year old. At first her mother didn't care if she was dating Inuyasha. But now, since she's almost of age to get married as her mother puts it, she hates him with fury.

'But I won't let her win. Inuyasha is the one I will always love,' she told herself.
