InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ For richer or poorer ❯ Snob Haven ( Chapter 3 )
DISCLAIMER: what do u think
Hey guess what, I found time to write this chapter!! OMG, this week has been a living nightmare!! Everyday I have been going to play auditions for the school musical, and working my butt off. Well in the end, I and ALL of my friends get NO parts and no lines or anything; we are the 'extras'. We think that the musical director Mr. Bond is prejudice because he only chooses his favorite students. He is an 8th grade teacher for the S team and me and all of my friends are on the R team. Therefore, we do not know him or have him for any classes. He chose his favorite students as the leads, whether they sucked or not. Just about every single person from the R team was put in as an extra or background person (hah fillers) except for a few chosen ones who were just really pretty and flaunted there way to a part with one line. It is such a disgrace that a teacher would be that prejudice for something as small as a school musical. I think it is crazy and me and all of my friends are dropping out. Thank god we do not have him for classes or I would never go back to school again. The bastard.

Title: For richer or poorer
Chapter 3: Snob haven
((I would like to make a reminder- Kagome and Sango both have street smarts; therefore they are very smart when it comes to people))
The rest of the day wasn't the most exciting one for the two teenagers. They had walked around campus trying to get acquainted to it so they wouldn't get lost, and checked out a few guys from afar. Kagome sat down on a bench underneath an old willow tree and sighed of exhaustion.
"We've been out here all day and we haven't even met anyone yet! Hey that reminds me, when do we start classes?" Kagome had blabbed out together in one word. Sango happened to catch the last part and also took a seat next to her. She rested her chin in her hands and closed her eyes to think.
"Well… that paper the secretary gave us said we would start umm… tomorrow. She even gave us schedules. I will give you yours when we get back to the room" she explained. The wind was blowing outside and Kagome's hair swayed with the breeze. The little gust blew on her face, and she closed her eyes; enjoying the coolness of its touch.
"I could stay here forever, this has got to be my favorite place of all" Kagome said, her eyes still closed. Sango mhm'ed and inhaled deeply. The sun peeked through the leaves and branches of the old willow tree, and cast rays of light onto their faces. It was warm and pleasant all at the same time- the perfect feeling on such a nice day like this. Kagome tucked her hands behind her head and cradled the back of her neck as she slumped further down into the seat. She couldn't help but think of the encounter that she had with boy across the hall.
He was just so… whoa. I wonder what his name is or if he would ever take me out to lunch… hah that's a laugh. But… why did he look so familiar? It's like I have seen him somewhere before, but it wasn't him… but it was him. Oh, Kagome get a gold of yourself! What are the chances?!
"Kagome?"
Kagome thwacked her hand across the bench hitting Sango. "Not now, I am trying to think"
Sango rolled her eyes. "About what?"
"Someone"
"Gender?"
Kagome hesitated to answer and pretended to ignore her question.
"Kagome, gender?"
"Male" Ugh crap it slipped out. Now she is going to ask me questions about who it is for the rest of my life!
Sango quirked a brow and moved closer. "Oh ok…I see" she glanced at her watch. "You know what? I think I will save my questioning for later. Right now we should be getting back, it's getting late" Kagome forced an eye open as the light that squeezed through the branches blinded her. She covered her eye with a hand and rubbed.
"Alright then, let's get going before I get too attached to this place" Kagome stood up and trailed Sango from behind. Her stomach growled and begged for food. She clutched her stomach and stopped. Sango turned around to see what was keeping Kagome, and raced back.
"Are you as hungry as I am?" Kagome asked. She took Sango's hand and stood up. Sango nodded her head in response and put an arm around her shoulders.
"Hey, let's go grocery shopping. I already checked the cabinets at the dorm and they didn't load them with food or anything, so no use going back there just to end up empty handed" she said matter-of-factly. Kagome frowned a little but suddenly smiled.
"Nah, let's go out to dinner. I hate grocery shopping, besides we can do that tomorrow" She craned her head around Sango and looked off into the distance to see if she could spot a plaza or something nearby. The sun was still lowering in the sky, and blinded her sight. Kagome just shrugged questionably and raised a brow.
"Umm, maybe we should just stroll around and see what we can find" she suggested. Kagome shook her head a little, but then smiled in return.
"But wait-" Sango said stopping her best friend who was a few paces ahead. "We should go back to the dorm and get a little more dressed up, we look pretty sloppy right now" she pointed out. Kagome glanced down at Sango's outfit of sweatshirt and sweatpants. Not exactly what I would call 'dressed up'.
Kagome started off to get a little bit of a head start. "Alright" she said waving Sango to catch up. "I want to find a restaurant early so it won't be packed later"
Sango didn't exactly know what she was talking about and felt left in the dark. "Huh? What do you mean early?" Kagome jolted around and faced Sango.
"You have got to be kidding me" she replied softly. Sango waved her head side to side. Kagome stared at her best friend strangely. 'Oh yeah… I bet she has never been to a restaurant before…' "Okay, when I was 4 years old, I remember my mom taking me out to restaurants every night, but we would leave so early…" Sango nodded, proving she was still following. "When I asked why, she said that if we went to a nice restaurant later, then it would be packed and we would have to wait a long time to get a table or to be served. Of course, at that age I barely knew what any of that meant" Sango still looked to be oblivious. "Oh forget it, let's go before it gets late"
----------------------------
Back at the dorm
Kagome tapped her foot on the floor impatiently, and kept looking at her watch every minute. Sango had been locked up in her closet for almost 25 minutes looking for something to wear out to dinner. Well there goes the 'early dinner' analogy Sango's head popped out of the closet fully dressed. She frowned, and spun around in front of the full length mirror.
"hmm… oh, I like it! Wait… no, this doesn't look right" Sango tumbled back into her closet and started throwing clothes all around the room, even out of the closet into the bedroom. Kagome looked so hungry she could cry. Sango crawled back out of the closet wearing another outfit. She nodded excitedly, but then pursed her lips into a frown. Kagome hoped that she was going to wear that and they could leave, but the second Kagome opened her mouth to say something, Sango had beat her to it and raced back into the closet throwing more things about. Kagome's faced just seemed to collapse into a mound of angry expressions.
"Sango! What the hell is taking you so long?!" Kagome had finally popped and Sango didn't seem one bit scared. She strolled out like she was walking the runway at a fashion show and smiled.
"Let's go!" she quirked happily. Kagome UNhappily tossed her purse over her own shoulder and waited for Sango to gather her accessories.
Oh gods this will take just as long…
Just as Kagome had predicted, Sango took almost 15 minutes picking out her accessories, purse and jewelry. By the time they had left the dorm, it was going to be almost 6:00. Kagome sighed at the time, but shrugged it off quickly. Her stomach roared explosively and demanded food. Sango was almost positive she could hear Kagome's tummy grumble, and took that as a sign that they should get going.
As the two approached the campus plaza, there were 2 restaurants in view. One was an Olive Garden, and another was a Red Lobster. There was also a bar next to that, but neither Sango nor Kagome drank, so they agreed to never step foot in there. They agreed on eating at Red Lobster since the sight of the line wasn't out the door as much as Olive Garden. They quickly snatched a place in line and waited patiently to be seated, along with the other hundred some people in front of them. Suddenly, a fight had started between the couple of guys ahead of them and punches were started to be thrown. Sango stepped back and almost got punched herself. As she stepped back, she accidentally stepped on a girl's foot behind her.
"Hey watch it!" the girl snapped at Sango. She bent down and pet her toe that had been crushed. "You are so lucky you didn't scuff up my shoe, bitch!"
Sango turned around slowly and gave her a could-kill glare. "Ex~cuse m~e?!" Sango had taken another step closer toward the girl, almost stepping on her other foot. But the girl had pulled it back immediately, sending murderous glares back at Sango.
"You heard me you hoe!" she barked out curtly. "Why, I bet you don't even go to our school. You look like a piece of trailer trash that crawled out from a port-o-potty"
"Well now bitchy mcbitch, at least this piece of 'trailer trash' actually has a life and doesn't obsess over her damn shoes more then her life!"
"That was a terrible comeback" she hissed back.
"Oh, it was? I thought it would be too complicated for that little piece of shit you called a brain… but I guess not!" Sango said venomously.
"I've had enough, step aside before I have kick your ass"
Sango was taken back by her oh-so-hurtful comment. She gave a fake hurt look and poured out the sarcastic comebacks. "Kagome, I am shaking in my boots! You have GOT to help me before this little bitchy whore slut tries to hurt me!!" Sango shot a look at the girl's shoes that she had stepped on. When she had stepped on one, she accidentally caused the shoelace on that shoe come undone. Sango bent over and started smacking her butt. "You want it? Come get it you little skank! But, be careful… we don't want you tripping and breaking a nail now do we?" The girl had embers shooting from her ears and her face almost turned purple.
"Oh please, now why the hell would I tri-" The girl had started moving toward Sango, but mid-sentence, her foot got caught under her other and she went crashing to the ground. She stood up and dusted her knees off but cried in horror when she examined her broken thumb nail.
Kagome and Sango nearly died of laughter as the girl's friends crowded around her and gaped at her nail. The two twisted around just as a hostess approached them with menus and led them to their table, leaving the group of snobs to themselves. The hostess left them and a waitress came to their table for their drinks.
"Umm… Tropical Punch" Kagome answered politely. Sango was sill briefly searching the drinks but lowered her menu when she realized it was her turn to order something.
"I'll have some water"
The waitress left the table with their drink orders and Kagome voiced her opinion.
"This place is full of snobs, I am starting to hate it already" she said sadly.
"Don't worry; I am sure things will get better once classes start tomorrow. Not to mention that no one can be that snobby in front of the teachers" Sango picked up her menu and gazed over it once again. "Oh… that sounds good"
Kagome laughed and too picked up her menu.
---------------------------------------
Dinner had gone quite well, even though there was that little pre-dinner fight. But, besides that little booboo everything went smoothly. The food was great, and there wasn't even a glimpse of the girl who had got up close and personal with Sango the rest of the night, to their enjoyment. Kagome finished brushing her teeth and slipped into bed. Sango came in and sat on the edge of her bed lazily.
"May I help you?"
"Can I sleep with you tonight; I don't like sleeping in that big bed all by myself"
"No"
"Please? Just for tonight, really"
Kagome frowned and pulled the sheets and blankets back. "Okay"
Sango jumped into bed, and snuggled under the warmth of the comforter. "Kagome?"
"Mhm?"
"I miss home" she yawned and slid her eyes shut.
Kagome felt a tear slide down her cheek hotly. "Me too"
((AWW ME TOO!!! *wails into shirt*))
-------------------------------
The alarm clock sprang to life, startling Kagome whose head was only a foot from it. Sango was already awake and sitting up rubbing her eyes.
"Good morning, Sango" Kagome said; her mouth filled with a yawn.
Sango waved back tiredly and dragged herself out of the bed. She groaned and tumbled back into her closet yet again.
"Don't take as long as yesterday getting dressed or we will never get to school today!" Kagome called from her bathroom. Sango groaned in reply. After they were both done changing and showering, they sat down at the kitchen table and almost cried. They had forgotten to go grocery shopping and there was nothing in the house to eat.
"Is there a Starbucks nearby, maybe we can pick up a bagel and coffee on the way to school" Kagome said dully. Sango didn't say anything and just slammed her head onto the table in front of her. Kagome didn't know whether that was a yes or a no, so she just dragged Sango out of the chair and out the door with her.
---------------------------
"There isn't enough time, Kagome. We have to get to class, sorry no Starbucks" Sango grumbled. The Starbucks was just down the road, but the large clock tower said that there was only 5 minutes left until classes started. Kagome sighed in defeat and walked past the Starbucks sadly.
"What are our classes anyways?" Kagome asked, trying to get her mind off of the Starbucks. Sango reached into her pocket and unfolded 2 sheets of paper. She handed one to Kagome and started reading hers aloud. Kagome matched her schedule to hers, and they were exactly the same.
"How did you get them to make our schedules the same?"
Sango chuckled. "The lady wouldn't let me have the same classes. I told her that we had to be together but she completely ignored me. Until… I slipped her a hundred and she gladly put us together." Kagome laughed at her friend's quick mind and put her schedule into her own pocket.
"You do realize that everyone here will be snobby and such. We don't know anyone here either so we are going to have to fend for ourselves for a while" Kagome stated matter-of-factly. Sango nodded.
"And you DO realize that if we don't move faster we will be late" Sango also stated truthfully. Kagome too nodded and Sango started running ahead.
"HEY!!" Kagome screamed from behind. She also sprinted off but was still far behind her. "WAIT UP!!"
----------------------------------------
Sango took a seat next to Kagome and pulled out her books. People were still entering the classroom one by one, and the teacher wasn't even there yet. Kagome put her chin in her palms to rest but snapped back up as she noticed someone walk in the classroom. The girl from the night before strolled in and took a seat around the other girls that were with her last night also. She had black hair and it was pulled back into a low ponytail. Sango too saw her enter and shot daggers toward her behind her back.
The teacher walked in and places his briefcase onto the podium. "Good morning class!" he called. There was a small echo of mumbling that sort of sounded like "yeah whatever, morning to you too" The teacher who was apparently unaffected by the classes rude reply, took out a paper and started taking roll. He looked up and caught Sango and Kagome in his view.
"Ah, class we have two new students joining us this year" he said happily. He ushered Kagome to stand up and she said a few things about herself. Sango copied what Kagome had done and slouched back down into her seat. The entire time that they were talking, Kagome could see out the corner of her eye that the girl was laughing and giggling among her friends.
"Miss Kikyo!" the teacher snapped. "Show some respect, young lady!" Kikyo shut up and sat up straight.
"Yes, Mr. Tawashiki. I am very sorry for my rude behavior" she apologized sweetly. The devil horns seemed to have disappeared and were replaced by a halo.
"Very well Kikyo, just as long as it doesn't happen again"
"I promise" she said. Everyone behind her could see that she had crossed her fingers behind her back as Mr. Tawashiki turned around to face the board.
The halo again vanished and was replaced by the devil horns; how it SHOULD be.
Didn't believe it for a second…
-------------------------------------------
"So the bitch has a name?" Sango spat distastefully. Kagome laughed and nodded.
"Yeah, it's Kikyo. Didn't you hear Mr. Tawashiki yelling at her?"
Sango shook her head. "Do I EVER listen in school?" Kagome already knew the answer to that question.
"No… bu-"
"Well then there you go I wasn't listening" she took a quick sip from a nearby water fountain and caught up to Kagome who was a few paces ahead of her. "So where is our next class?"
Kagome scanned her schedule and read off the rest of the day. "Umm… English" she answered enthusiastically. "I hear the teacher is a complete bore" she sighed and went into the classroom. As soon as Sango heard 'bore' she knew she was in for one fun English class. She trudged in slowly and stole a seat in the back with Kagome. Kagome usually didn't like to be far away from the front of the room, she thought that it was harder to see and hear further away. But when she was in a boring class, she would sit in the back so she could daydream and the teacher wouldn't know whether or not she was fooling around or paying attention. Sango nudged Kagome's elbow with her hand and pointed to the front of the room.
"Look who's here" she said playfully. Kagome spotted 2 guys entering the classroom. It was the two guys they had seen at the mall, and when they were leaving their dorm room. Kagome almost forgot to breathe, but Sango smacked her on the arm to wake her up.
"Kagome, wake up… they're coming up here!" Sango whispered loudly to Kagome. Kagome jolted back to reality and stopped her drooling. Sango was right, the two had spotted Kagome and Sango sitting alone in the back, and had decided to join them. Kagome's heart pumped faster and faster as they drew nearer. Omg
Inuyasha took a seat on the other side of Kagome and dropped his books on the floor between them. He looked over at Kagome and noticed how tense she looked. He smiled sweetly and put a hand out.
"Hi, I'm Inuyasha" he said in a tone that dripped kindness. Kagome glanced up right when he said that and stopped breathing.
Sango nudged her arm again and called out to her in a whisper. "Say something!" Kagome could feel her blood boiling inside and she felt like she would upchuck dinner from last night.
"uhh umm… I'm going to be sick…" Kagome ran down the steps and stumbled out into the hallway. She hurried to a bathroom and hurled everything she had eaten from the night before.
----------------------------
Back at the classroom
"Umm… is she going to be all right?" A boy with black hair asked. He took a seat next to Sango and smiled charmingly. Sango almost melted into her seat, but refrained from doing so.
"Umm…. Yeah, I think she might have gotten sick from dinner last night. Maybe food poisoning" she said trying to cover up for her best friend. The boy with black hair reached a hand out just as Inuyasha had done and Kagome.
"I don't think we have had the pleasure of meeting yet, I'm Miroku" he said in a devious tone. "But you can just call me Sexy" he grinned and winked at her. Sango had the urge to slap him but decided not to. She shook his hand lightly and pulled away.
"I am Sango" she replied in a 'get away from me' voice. She turned toward Inuyasha and shook his hand. "The girl that you were trying to get acquainted with was Kagome"
Inuyasha nodded and turned back toward the front of the room.
Almost 20 minutes had passed and Kagome still wasn't back from the bathroom. Sango started to get worried and raised her hand.
"Yes Miss Sango?" Mr. Suki said loudly so she could hear him all the way in the back.
"May I please use the bathroom?"
The teacher shook his head. "I am sorry Miss Sango, but you should have used the bathroom before cla-" Sango interrupted him before he could finish.
"Please, I uhh… I feel sick. Yeah, I might have gotten food poisoning last night and I feel very sick" Sango held her stomach and moaned in pain. It was all an act, but of course Mr. Suki fell for it and let her go. Sango rushed to the bathroom and found Kagome in a stall sitting on the ground.
"Sango, I think I have food poisoning" Kagome groaned again and held her stomach. "Remind me to never eat that Shrimp Alfredo ever again…"
Sango laughed and helped her stand up straight. "Alright I will, but right now I think you should go back to the dorm, you are still feeling sick and I don't think you should resume classes" She led Kagome out of the stall and flushed the toilet behind her.
"Sango, come with me. I don't want to be by myself all day, it's boring" Kagome pleaded.
Sango rubbed her chin. "Well I don't know.."
"Please?"
"Umm…."
"I let you sleep with me last night"
Kagome had her on that one. She had done something for her, so now she had to return the favor herself. "Okay, okay I'll stay. Just let me run back and get our books. I will tell Mr. Suki that we both have food poisoning and we have to leave." Kagome nodded and started trailing her out of the bathroom. Sango turned around and stopped Kagome.
"I just said that I was going, not you. You are sick" she stated tartly pushing Kagome back into the bathroom. Kagome gave Sango a stern look and frowned.
"NO, I want to go too. If I spend another minute in this disgusting bathroom I'll re-live my dinner for second time today" Kagome's face was pale and she looked pretty bad. It would do some good if she got a little fresh air out of the bathroom.
"Alright, let's go"
--------------------------------
Back at the classroom
"Where have you ladies been?" Mr. Suki demanded. Everyone in the class had stopped and focused their attention on them since they had interrupted the class. Not that they minded.
Sango stepped ahead of Kagome. "I am sorry, but Kagome and I went out to dinner last night and it seems that we both have food poisoning. We have to leave now. If you don't mind we would like to take our books, and receive the homework for tonight"
Mr. Suki bit the inside of his cheek and started ruffling through a stack of papers on his desk. "Very well then, here you go" he handed Sango two papers- one for herself and one for Kagome. "Please take your books quickly so we may continue the lecture" Sango saluted him and dragged Kagome up the steps behind her. When Sango had reached the top, Kagome picked her books up but sat down in her seat.
"Kagome, we're leaving! Don't sit down" Sango yelled in an audible whisper.
"I know, but I feel really weak, let me sit for a second and I promise I will go quickly" Sango sighed deeply and waited patiently for Kagome to stand up. Inuyasha and Miroku watched them intently as they preformed their little charade. Inuyasha noticed Kagome was struggling, and tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around and waited for him to say whatever he had to say.
"Do you need some help, you look a little distraught" he asked quietly. Kagome stared at him like he was crazy.
"I don't need your help, I am just fine thank you" she answered flatly and stood up. As she stood, she motioned for Sango to also get up. Sango started walking down the steps but heard a thud from behind. She though that Kagome had dropped a book by accident and was going back to get it. But when she turned around Kagome was sprawled out of the steps unconscious. Inuyasha was kneeling on the ground next to her and shaking her lightly.
"What happened?!" she demanded that Inuyasha tell her since he had seen it. He raised a brow and shrugged clueless.
"She just fainted"
