We approached the door. That stupid door with all the brightly colored encouraging posters that were the entrance to Ms. Meiji's brightly colored office. Most kids don't usually go to the school councilor more than once, and never with the same person. Guess there is a first for everything.
Ms. Meiji poked her face around the door and brightened with surprise at seeing us.
“ My, my, The lovebirds are back! You two weren't kissing in the halls now were you?”
I felt my cheeks heat up profusely, and for once, neither me nor Inuyasha said anything.
Ms. Meiji sighed, “wishful thinking on my part I presume. Well, come in, come in. I have tons to talk about!”
That's funny, I thought we were the ones that were supposed to do the talking.
“So,” she began, “what is it this time?”
Unlike last time, we both exploded.
“ It's her fault.”
“It is not, if he would have just answered the dumb question then…”
“You shouldn't have been sticking your nose where it doesn't belong!”
“ It's for a project! Believe me Ms. Meiji, nothing is wrong… we just got off to a bad start.”
Ms. Meiji just kept smiling with her big, bug-like eyes during our entire tirade, her ears stretched by her enormous sparkly beetle earrings.
“ Now, now. I know what this is!” She cut in, “ You're having a little lovers spat! How sweet! “
“ Ms. Meiji! This has nothing to do with “us”! There is no “us”! This is just because he wouldn't answer a silly question, nothing more….”
The jerk agreed and we both scooted our chairs distinctly away form each other.
Ms. Meiji still had on her goofy smile…” Alright Kagome, what was the question.
Now the jerk and I both gulped. I was not expecting this.
“ Um… well, that's not important. It won't happen again and—“
She was digging for something…
“ Now, now Kagome, just spit it out, what was the question?”
“ifhehasagirlfriend.”
“What was that dear?”
She had heard it the first time, I could tell by her smile.
“ It was part of the project! I just asked if he had a girlfriend! Relationships are a big part of people's lives and it determines everything else he does like—“
Now I was completely rambling trying to justify myself for a question I don't even know why I myself asked it.
“—and furthermore the project says be creative and—“
Ms. Meiji looked down at me with her sickeningly sick smile… “ Ah, I know what this is! I understand now, you two may leave. Come back soon!”
She shoved us out the door looking at me the entire time. Now not only could I not meet the eyes of Inuyasha, my cheeks were burning red at what Ms. Meiji had thought. When I finally did look, I noticed something strange that I thought I would never see in the time I had known him.
“He's blushing…”
He looked down at me and that was when I realize I had said it out loud.
“ Did you just say I was blushing? Phff… I don't blush.”
I had a perfect idea. I Decided to tease him a little since my own cheeks were still burning, and I was almost positive his were. Just to lighten up the mood, not at all trying to see if he would blush more…nope, not at all.
“ Oh, right. Almighty Inuyahsa never blushes, feel the wrath of his almighty macho-ness.”
Instead of getting the desired laugh, all he did was stare at me.
Oh. I had done it. That was the first time I had ever said his name before.
He stared at me a moment longer before dismissing it with a simple..” idiot”. And walking away.
Thinking that was the end of the subject I simply let my eyes drop.
“ Kagome, you coming or not?”
I snapped my head up and ran over to the speech room where Inuyasha had already entered.
