Chapter 3
Discovery
 
Kagome had been studying her cousin in class since he was in two of them, but she hadn't seen anyone teasing him. She had been in that school for a month and she saw nothing happening to him. Until one day...
 
"Oi, Rikku!" Kouga cried out in the middle of the hall once at Kagome's cousin.
 
"K-Kouga-san." Rikku replied, cowarding a bit.
 
"I need some cash for lunch."
 
"I-I don't have any..."
 
"What do you mean, you don't have any? Cough it up!" Kouga pushed him into the lockers, knocking the books out of his hands.
 
"Kouga!" Kagome cried out in her Kinn voice.
 
"What do you want?" Kouga snapped.
 
"Leave my cousin alone, you bastard."
 
"What are you going to do? Punch me?"
 
"Maybe I will. What then? You plan to get embarassed even more?"
 
"I won't lose to you this time, Higurashi Kinn!" Kouga got in a fighting stance, his fists up, ready to fight.
 
"Kidoban Kouga!" A teacher shouted.
 
"Kaede-sensei..." Kouga replied, dropping his fists.
 
"No fighting, you know the rules."
 
Kouga grumbled and stormed off. Kaede-sensei walked away and Kagome went up to her cousin, droppping her manly voice. She whispered quietly, "Are you okay?"
 
"Ka--" Rikku started.
 
"It's Kinn now, okay? I have a twin sister, Kagome." She replied, winking at him.
 
"Thanks..."
 
"No problem, now, come on, let's get your stuff and get to class."
 
................................................................. ...................................
 
Kagome proceeded home that day and went up to her room. It was only her and Souta at home right then. She sighed and streched a bit undressing herself. There was a knock and a door opening. She was taking off her shirt then and hadn't heard the knock over her humming. The person peered in and gaped. "Ki-Kinn?"
 
Kagome gasped and closed her shirt. "What are you doing here?"
 
"N-nothing... What are you doing in your sister's room?" He replied. "And what's with the chest wrap?"
 
Kagome sighed. "You found me out, Miroku..." She opened her shirt, showing him the wrap.
 
"What's going on?"
 
"My cousin, Hirotori Rikku, has been picked on for a while at that school. My mother sent me in as a boy to keep an eye on him... Kouga has been picking on him and I intend to stop it. My real name is Higurashi Kagome, I am very much a female with short, boy hair." She picked up a head band and slipped it on her head, poofing her hair a bit. "You see?"
 
"Wow... my friend has fooled everyone at my school for a month that she's a boy..."
 
"And I intend for it to last all year."
 
"What about Inuyasha?"
 
"Don't tell him. Please?"
 
"Why not?" Miroku asked, grinning.
 
"I want to keep it very quite." She replied, blushing.
 
There was the sound of the doorbell. "That's probably Inuyasha now." Miroku replied, beginning to leave. "You get all girled up, and I'll stall Inuyasha."
 
"Thank you so much, Miroku."
 
"Oh, and one more thing..."
 
"What?"
 
"Since you're a woman, would you please bear my child?"
 
Kagome threw a pillow at him. "Get out!" She screamed.
 
Miroku laughed and left down the stairs and answered the door. "What are you doing already here?" Inuyasha asked.
 
"Nothing, just didn't have to do any chores at the shrine, so I came straight here after I grabbed some food." Miroku replied. "Came to ask Kagome out?"
 
"Looking to see if Kinn wants to play some basketball."
 
"Well, Kinn's not here."
 
"He's visiting his uncle again?"
 
"Apparently so..."
 
"Sure is close with that near-dead bastard."
 
"Excuse me," Kagome said from behind Miroku, "but you don't even know him. He's a very sweet and kind man. Now, what do you want?" She was dressed in a pair of jeans with a large, old baseball shirt that had belonged to her father. In her hair was a hard, dark blue head band and her eyelid decorated with blue eye shadow.
 
"I wanted to see if your brother wanted to play some basketball."
 
"Well, he's not here." She put her hands on her hips.
 
"Then do you want to watch TV in case he comes back?"
 
"Sure." Kagome replied, inviting Inuyasha in.
 
Miroku walked by Kagome and rubbed her bottom. She shrieked and ended up jumping into Inuyasha's arms again. Inuyasha was use to this by now and patted her on the head. "Chill out." Inuyasha said, sighing.
 
Kagome blushed and went into the kitchen. "Everytime!" She muttered, hitting herself in the head with her hand.
 
"Don't hurt yourself." Inuyasha said, leaning against the doorway.
 
"I-Inuyasha."
 
"Shh." He muttered, walking towards her. "Don't want Miroku to think I'm getting sensitive.
 
"Inuyasha--"
 
"Shut up, you talk too much." Inuyasha grabbed her by the arm forcefully and kissed her. When it ended, he held her close and whispered. "I want to see you all the time."
 
"Inuyasha..." Kagome blushed and reluctantly pushed him away. "I can't do this... Kinn... he's protective..."
 
"Forget him, I'll fight him if I have to."
 
"Well, well, well..." Miroku said from the doorway.
 
"Tell Kinn and I'll kill you myself." Inuyasha growled, hiding Kagome behind him.
 
"Don't worry, I believe that's up to Kagome..."
 
Kagome bit her lip and ran off to her room.
 
"Kagome--" Inuyasha said as she ran off. He cursed at himself. "How could she like a hanyou like me?"
 
"Don't take it so personally," Miroku replied, patting him on the back. "She's just confused, your her brother's best friend. What is she suppose to do?"
 
"I don't know..."
 
"Exactly."
 
Inuyasha sighed and regretted kissing the only girl he ever thought could like him back, especially after that first night where they fell asleep together.
 
................................................................. ...................................
 
Kagome went to school the next day as Kinn, as usual. Inuyasha wouldn't look her directly in the eye. Miroku frowned at Kagome. "I don't know what to do." Kagome whispered on the bus, sitting next to Miroku.
 
"Do you like him?"
 
"Yeah, I do."
 
"Then let him know that Kinn knows."
 
"What?! Kinn would kill Inuyasha... we're protective of each other!"
 
"You sound very skitzophranic."
 
"Shut up."
 
"So, what are you going to do?"
 
"What else? Pretend Kinn doesn't know!"
 
"When, in fact, he does, because you are Kagome and Kinn."
 
"Yes."
 
"That's confusing, Kinn."
 
Kagome sighed and the bus stopped in the bus lot at the school. She proceeded off with Miroku and caught up with Inuyasha. She deepened her voice and approached him. "Hey, Inuyasha, what's up? You've been acting funny all morning."
 
"Keh, it's nothing, you're the weird one." Inuyasha folded his arms.
 
"Geez, cool it." Kagome--well, Kinn--replied.
 
"I'm cool!" Inuyasha snapped at Kinn.
 
"Hey, what's up with you, seriously?"
 
"... I kissed your sister yesterday."
 
"I knew she was acting funny. She was pink in the cheeks everytime I brought you up and she hid out in her room a lot."
 
"Keh, what a girl..."
 
"She is a girl!" Kinn snapped, the femine side getting quite offended. "Why'd you kiss my sister? She's my sister!"
 
"I know, man, it's just... she's so beautiful and innocent and--"
 
"So, you like her because she's innocent and you can violate her!"
 
"No, man, it's not like that.
 
"If you hurt her, you're dead..." Kinn muttered, grabbing him by the collar.
 
"Keh, like you could."
"I don't care if you think I can't, I will."
 
"Whatever, put me down." Inuyasha grumbled and Kinn did what he was told.
 
For the rest of the day, Kagome sat there thinking: "What's going to happen now?"
 
................................................................. ...................................
 
When Kagome got home, she dressed up especially nice in hope that Inuyasha would come over. To her luck, he did. There was a knock at the door, and Kagome answered it, a bit happy that no one was home. Inuyasha walked on it, hands shoved in his pocket. "Listen, I'm only going to say this once. I like you, okay? If you hate me, that's fine."
 
"I-I don't hate you..." Kagome replied, blushing.
 
"It's really okay if you ha--Wait... What'd you say?"
 
"I don't hate you... I actually really liked being kissed by you." Kagome bit her lip, and thought to herself: Kami, I'm really setting myself up now...
 
"Good." Inuyasha grabbed her and kissed her. She returned it, wrapping her arms around him.
 
"Are you sure this is okay?" Kagome asked.
 
"It's fine..." Inuyasha replied. "I'll protect you."
 
Little did they know as they continued to kiss, outside the house watched and listened Kouga. "Damn him... I'll have to figure out how to break them up now..." Kouga muttered to himself, rushing off back to his home. "I'll win her over..."
