I Think I Love You
Chapter Three: Welcome to Meiou, Kagome!
Kagome curled deeper into the covers of her warm blankets, trying her hardest to remain in the peaceful oblivion known as sleep through the one sound no human being ever wanted to hear first thing in the morning.
::BeepBeepBeepBeep::
Kagome groaned quite loudly, trying to block out the grating, screeching sound with her pillow wrapped around her ears.
Suddenly, it stopped.
Kagome blinked, but heaved a sigh and tried to go back to sleep.
But it wasn’t meant to be.
“Kagome?”
She grunted.
“Kagome? Kagome, come on!”
She groaned. “Go away, Shu!”
Kurama’s eyebrow twitched. He didn’t really like being called Shu. (Pronounced Sue)
Kagome came up with the oddest little nicknames to give him. And most of them were embarrassing as hell.
The redheaded thief sighed, and ripped the blanket off of the half-awake body of his sister.
The girl twitched, curling in on herself. “Shu! Leave me alone!”
“No, Kagome. Mother sent me up here to wake you up. Oh, and to give you this.” He dropped the article of clothing in his hands on top of her head, enshrouding her eyes in red.
Kagome sat up drowsily, taking down the red cloth, and staring at it without really comprehending what it was as Kurama left to let her change.
The girl sighed, knowing that the younger would not leave her alone until she was up, dressed, and down stairs.
Kagome pulled herself out of bed and stripped herself of her nightgown, but paused as a sudden wave of nausea sent her running to the bathroom that was thankfully connected to her room.
She held onto the sides of the cool porcelain as she emptied the contents of her stomach into the used-to-be-clear water.
Five minutes later she lifted herself up again, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. “Damn, this is driving me insane.”
She sighed, striding back into her room and taking a look at the clothing on her bed for the first time.
It was pure red with a blue ribbon. Almost exactly like her old school uniform…just with long sleeves and was red. Same length skirt and everything. Well, this one had a nice bow in the front instead of her tie.
Kagome blinked. What in the world?
But she pulled it on either way, traipsing downstairs after brushing her hair and teeth.
Kurama looked up as she came in. “Good morning.”
“Morning.” She muttered.
“Well, someone’s Ms. Grumpy.” Laughed Shiori, placing a plate of food in front of Kagome. “Eat up, dear. Remember, this is your first day at Shuiichi’s school.”
“Oh…yeah, I forgot. Shuiichi, I’m going to be in the junior class right? While you’re in the sophomore?”
Kurama sighed. She always loved to rub the fact that she was older than him in his face. But it made for an interesting argument. “Yes. You will, Kag-onee-san.”
“Great, Shu-ototo.” She giggled.
They had played this game nearly every morning since they’d met, and they always had fun.
The two wolfed down their breakfasts, grabbing their bags before yelling good-bye’s to their parents and striding down to the street to begin their way to school.
Kurama smiled as he watched his new sister.
She really was like him in some ways, yet so different in others.
She was much louder than him that was for sure.
But she had his way of hiding information from you and making you frustrated about it because you know that she’s hiding something but you can’t figure out what.
That proved that she was nice, and yet she was frustrating at the same time.
Was he making any sense? He hoped so. He usually loved to confuse people, but he didn’t feel like confusing himself at the moment.
His eyes focused on the back of his whistling sister as she walked ahead of him, skipping a little.
She’d already been living with them for a week, and somehow it was now hard to imagine a life without her. She had ingrained herself into their lives, and he didn’t feel bothered with it in the least bit. He actually really enjoyed having a sister. Now he didn’t have his mother’s overbearing love and attention only concentrated on him. That could get quite embarrassing and infuriating in certain situations.
He was probably starting to blush just thinking about it.
“Shuiichi! Come on!”
Kurama’s head shot up, and he noticed the school right in front of them. “Oh. I must have gotten lost in thought.” He muttered under his breath.
“What?” Kagome asked, confused.
“Nothing, Kag-chan. It’s nothing.” He assured her, leading her into the school. He took notice of many of the whispers around them.
“Who’s that girl?”
“Why is she with Minamino?”
“Man, she is hot.”
“I guess she’s pretty, but won’t Minami-san get mad that a random girl is hanging around Shuiichi?”
Kurama shook his head. Ah, Minami. My Karasu of the Ningenkai.
Kotoro Minami, president of the Shuiichi Minamino Fan Club.
Kurama took hold of Kagome’s hand, leading her down the halls to the front office.
“Yes, can I help you?” asked the secretary, Ms. Ninakoji. She was a very nice woman in her mid-thirties who sometimes counseled a few students who were going through troubled times, making her the schools’ secretary/counselor.
Kurama smiled. “Good morning, Ms. Ninakoji. This is my big sister, Kagome. She’s just starting at Meiou today. Could you look up her information for me and give her a schedule?”
Ms. Ninakoji smiled. “Of course, Shuiichi. One second.” After a few moments of serious typing, the secretary found Kagome’s file. “Ah, here it is. My, my, Ms. Higurashi, you sure do have a long history of diseases. I hope you are over them.”
Kagome laughed. “Of course…”
Kurama eyed her suspiciously for a second. Diseases? Kagome doesn’t look like she could have been sick a day in her life, she’s such a healthy and energetic girl. Whatever, I’ll just forget it. It’s probably nothing.
Kagome was finally handed her schedule and Kurama ushered her out of the office.
“Okay, Kagome. Let me see your schedule.”
Kagome handed it over, she hadn’t even looked at it herself.
“Okay…so you have Physical Science for first block, then you have Psychology, PE, then Japanese History. Well, I can show you to your Physical Science class since I have Biology first, but…you’re going to have to get someone else to show you around the school. After first I don’t have any classes near yours.”
Kagome’s face fell. Sure, they were in different years, but she had hoped that Kurama would have at least one class with her, since he was the best student in his year.
“Oh, don’t look like that, Kagome. I’ll meet you after school by the gate, okay?”
Kagome nodded, gulping as he led her to her Physical Science class.
The two stopped before the door, noticing that the tardy bell had rung.
“Don’t worry, we’ll have excuses for being late.” Kurama assured her, noticing that she was nervous about being sent to AAP (Another name for Detention) on the first day.
“Okay, well, good luck.” He kissed her forehead, both hugging before separating.
Kagome breathed deeply before knocking on the door.
“Come in.” came a male voice.
Kagome pulled open the sliding door, and looked in meekly. “Um…is this Suoh-san’s Physical Science class?”
“Yes, and you would be?” Mr. Suoh was one of those pretty boy teachers just out of College, and he looked very familiar to her.
Wait…replace the black hair with silver and the violet eyes with gold…add the odd markings…SESSHOUMARU?! As she panicked on the inside, Kagome cleared her throat. “Um…Higurashi Kagome, sensei. I’m a new student.”
“Obviously. Ms. Higurashi, would you come inside and introduce yourself, or do you make a habit of hanging in front of doorways?”
The class snickered.
Kagome blushed, stepping inside the classroom and closing the door. “Um, I’m Higurashi Kagome. I’ve just moved here from Shijoru High School.”
“Whoa, why’d you move here? Shijoru’s the best.” Asked a girl near the front with green hair.
“Uh…things happen.” She laughed nervously.
“Well, Ms. Higurashi, sit down next to…Suoh.”
“Uh, sir, I thought you were Suoh.” Kagome was now officially confused.
A familiar snort from near the back caught her attention. “There are two Suoh’s in this class. I’m Inuyasha Suoh. He’s Sesshoumaru Suoh. You got a problem with it?”
Kagome looked towards the voice and nearly fainted.
There, sitting in a desk wearing a Meiou High magenta uniform, was Inuyasha in human form. Long hair and all.
“What? Is there something on my face?” Inuyasha blinked, confused.
“Oh, no. Sorry. You just…look like an old friend of mine…he looked kind of like you. Except your hair and eyes were different colors.”
“Whatever.”
Sesshoumaru sighed. “Sit.”
“Yes sensei.” Kagome hurried to her seat, sitting down and pulling out one of the textbooks’ the secretary had given her.
This is going to be a very long day…
