From Friendship to Love

Chapter Five: Homecoming Week - Thursday and Friday!

Wednesday passed like the wind. Except for her float meeting and the fact freshman won the spirit day nothing else happened. It was now Thursday morning and everything was going on.

Color wars day. Kagome wore tight black hip huggers with a tight fitted black t-shirt that had silver glitter glue spelling out `Seniors #1' on the front and `Class of 2002' on the back. She had use black face paint and put on each cheek '02. She also wore black lipstick.

Inuyasha had stopped by an hour before school. He was wearing a very tight black muscle shirt with `SENIORS' written across the front. His pants were slightly baggy in the legs but fitted nicely around his butt. His hair had been temporarily dyed black. Kagome had to mental slap herself for an impure thought that had entered her head at the time.

Kagome got to school only to find Sango waiting for her eagerly in the parking lot. Sango grabbed Kagome pulling her to the from of the school mumbling something about `having to see this.' Kagome kept up and when they reached the front of the school she gasped.

"I know I said the same thing."

The fountain that stood in front of the school was sprouting bubbles. Bubbles and foam filled the courtyard. A huge banner was taped around the school sign reading: "Buyo High RULEZ! #1"

Miroku and Kouga walked over to the girls shaking their heads.

"This is a bunch of bull!" Kouga spat out.

Buyo High was Shard's high biggest rival. They were set on beating Shard High in the football game tomorrow night. So to show their superiority they attacked Shard High. Inuyasha and Kikyou and a few others walked over to the four.

"They will pay." Inuyasha said his eyes focusing on their banner. As senior class president and as Captain of the Football team it was his duty to make sure there was retaliation.

"We have to think of something better than this!" Miroku spoke up.

An idea popped into Inuyasha's mind and it would be perfect only if…"HEY! Someone tell when is their pep rally is tomorrow."

"My brother's friend attends Buyo, I believe its tomorrow morning and instead of going to first period they are just going to head out to the football field," Sango answered.

"Perfect!" Inuyasha gave an evil smile.

"What are you up to, honey?" Kikyou took note of the spark in his eyes.

Inuyasha motioned for everyone to get a little closer.

"Here is how it goes. Tonight around midnight everyone meet at my house. Bring as many plastic forks and spoons; toilet paper; and red, black, and white streamers as you can get."

"What exactly are you planning?" Miroku raised an eyebrow.

"We are going to fork their field from one end to the other then we are going to spell a huge Shard High using the toilet paper and forking it to the ground. And we are going to wrap both goal posts with our colors. By the time they get there to set up for the pep rally the toilet paper and the streamers will be soggy from the morning dew and they won't have enough time to clean it up before school begins."

The group responded with many yells and hollers.

"So I am assuming you are all in?"

Again he was answered with a few, "Hell Yeah!"

"My house, Midnight, bring supplies."

Inuyasha grabbed Kikyou and head to class. Everyone else soon dispersed. Leaving only Sango, Kagome, Miroku.

"So are you all in?"

"You mean we are invited?" Kagome asked

"Of course because I am inviting you."

Kagome looked over at Sango for her answer. Sango smiled at Kagome, "Count us in!"

"Great then I see you all around."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*

The day flew by in an instant. Senior of course won a point for the color wars day. The pep rally would determine the winner of the spirit stick. So far seniors had two points, juniors no points, sophomores one point, and freshmen one point. The pep rally was about to begin.

Since Inuyasha was on the football team he could not be one of the announcers for the pep rally so his vice president, Miroku volunteered instead. No one else in the Senior Class Government wanted to assist Miroku, he wondered why. The secretary had felt a little bad for him so Kagome spoke up saying she would also be an announcer.

The pep rally began with the cheerleaders after that Miroku and Kagome announced the football players each as they ran into the gym. Inuyasha made his speech about beating Buyo High and before he was finished the entire school was rallied up.

Next came the games. Representatives from all four classes would compete in three games. The winners would receive a point and with the points from the spirit days the class with the highest total would display the spirit stick on their homecoming float. If there were a tie then a fourth game would have to be played.

The first game was a relay race, which surprisingly the freshman won. Next was a pie eating contest the juniors won. Game three was trivia about the school and again the freshman had won. The seniors were now shunning the freshman but there was in fact a tie. The final game would be the freshman verses the seniors.

The fourth game was a frozen shirt competition. Old shirts were soaked in water and frozen over night the object of the game was for the two students to pull their shirt apart and put it on one of them before the other team. Inuyasha and Kouga had unknowingly signed up together for the tiebreaker round.

When they both step out into the center they were welcomed with, "Just great those two could worked together if their lives depended."

Miroku looked up to see that a senior had yelled that out obviously worried about losing to the freshman because of Inuyasha and Kouga's rivalry.

"You two better work together on this cause your lives are in the very hands of those seniors sitting up there." Miroku said into the microphone.

Everyone was well aware of Inuyasha's and Kouga's relationship, the seniors yelled out threats to the boys while the members of the other classes laughed.

Inuyasha and Kouga looked at each other and for the first time came to an understand, `There is no way in hell puny little freshman are going to take our glory away.'

The game began, it was a stressful event, cheers for each side were loud and many but in the end, senior superiority was victorious earning them the spirit stick for the parade.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*

Kagome looked over at her clock; it was 11:45. Miroku would be there to pick up her and Sango at any moment. They had gone shopping after school and spent all their extra money on the supplies Inuyasha had requested. It wasn't long before Miroku rang the doorbell.

Everyone was at Inuyasha's house at 12:00 on the dot. Inuyasha looked around taking note of who would be coming. Kikyou was at his side; next to her was Kikyou's friend Sakura and her boyfriend Jake. Kouga had brought Mike, Steve, and Jenny. And Miroku had brought Sango and Kagome?!?! He smiled to himself, he was glad that she was coming at least he would get to see her a little.

But his obligation forced him to make a remark about her presence.

"Decided to bring some trash with you too? Eh, Miroku?"

Miroku shot him a glare.

"I wasn't referring to Sango you idiot. Rather the thing next to her."

By then Kagome was fuming out the ears, "I'd rather be trash than a piece of shit like you!"

Kikyou chimed in on the battle, "Why don't you just go crawl back under your rock and die!"

Sango and Miroku both had trouble-holding Kagome back from kicking Kikyou's ass. Inuyasha shook his head and walked to his car.

`Everybody here likes Kagome, they don't have any problem with her but Kikyou, damn girl, give Kagome a break,' he sighed inwardly; he had been the one that started.

Inuyasha turned back around to face everybody when he heard Kouga voice, "Fighting is not going to get our mission accomplished."

"Your right." Inuyasha said, "Alright, Jenny, Kikyou and Sakura your job is to stick as many forks and spoons all over the field. Kouga, Mike, Steve, Jake, and myself will take care of the goal post. Sango and the bitch will take care of the lettering in the field."

Kagome's mouth dropped and went to dart at Inuyasha but again Miroku and Sango were holding her back.

"Feh, lets get out here. We're only taking two cars so cram in."

With that said everyone piled into Miroku and Inuyasha's cars. Kagome had the best luck of them all; the only available seat left was the one behind Inuyasha in his car.

"Fuck!" she said as she got in.

Even though Jake's girlfriend was Kikyou's best friend, he liked Kagome and told her it was going to be ok. She smiled at him. Before taking off Inuyasha adjusted his rear view mirror nobody noticing that it was adjusted so he could see Kagome.

During the ride Kagome had taken notice that he could see her and periodically they'd catch each other's eyes. She saw sadness in his eyes and all she wanted to do was make them happy again.

They parked four blocks from Buyo High. The only good thing about the school was there were no fences to block trespassers. When they reached the school's football field everyone began their task. After about an hour later they had completed their mission. The group of seniors ran up onto the bleachers to admire their work. Just then they heard sirens and took off running. Not one of them realized it was only an ambulance siren.

However night security was checking the grounds at that time and when the group saw the light of the flashlight they all went into smaller groups in separate directions. Jenny, Mike, Steve and Jake took off through the small patch of woods next to the football field. Miroku, Sango, Kikyou, Kouga, and Sakura took off in the direction they had come. Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's hand and ran through the school away from the security guard.

The guard continued his rounds never realizing the group of trespassers on the grounds. His rounds took him the around a corner right in the path of Inuyasha and Kagome. Once Inuyasha saw him, he pulled Kagome into a small hall. If the guard actually paid attention he would surely seen them so Inuyasha pressed them close to the wall, hoping the guard wasn't that observant.

He passed but Inuyasha and Kagome did not move. Her back was against the hall and he was pressed forwards against her. They stayed like that for sometime after the guard left neither of them wanting to move.

"Ah, Inuyasha, I think he's gone." She knew they had to leave before he came back around.

"Huh? Right, let's go." He took her hand and led her out of the school back down the street. When they were within a block distance of the cars they realized they still were holding hands. Inuyasha hoped no one saw on the way back as he released her hand.

When they returned everyone began ask them question about where they had been or what took them so long.

"Feh, stupid bitch tried to run the wrong way."

"As if, you bastard, you followed me."

"Yeah to keep you from blowing everything, Wench!"

"ENOUGH!" Sango yelled. "Let's just get out of here before we are caught."

Everyone agreed and got back into the cars heading back to Inuyasha's house.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*

The big game day was here. By first period everyone in the school had heard about what happened to Buyo High. The principle had come on to make an announcement.

"I have been asked to make this announcement concerning the vandalizing that was done at Buyo High last night. If anybody has any clues as to who performed the action please have your teacher buzz up to the office………………..Nobody? Then I have done my duty and now completely off the record…Good Job! I am glad to see this school in high spirits. Have a great day everybody! Those who will be working on the floats may now head out to the track."

Kagome's class was yelling and banging on their desks with joy and pride after the principal's announcement. Kagome shook her head and left for the track.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*

The senior float was finally finished everything was perfect. The homecoming theme was `Time to throw out the litter box, your nine lives are up!" Buyo high were the wildcats.

The seniors had made their trailer into football field and at center of the field was a coffin with a cat's tail hanging out. At the head of the coffin was a huge tombstone stating the homecoming theme and Wildcat #9. Eight seniors were dressed like dead cats sitting around the coffin each with their own small tombstone with cute sayings like, "Wildcat #1, came to Shard and then he was done." Walking around on the trailer was a senior dressed in a football uniform holding a kitty litter box.

The spirit stick hung proudly from the goal posts. Kagome had to admit it was the best float they had done the last four years. The parade as only five minutes away and Kagome took her position as wildcat #1. Members of the homecoming court stopped by on the way to their float to see the senior float; everybody thought it was a great idea.

Inuyasha had to bite back a laugh when he saw Kagome in a while sheet, a halo above her hwad and her face painted white.

`That's my little angel!' he thought not really realizing what he was saying.

Kagome admired Inuyasha; he looked so nice in his tux. Homecoming court required formal attire so the men had to wear tux whereas the ladies wore long dresses.

The parade began, weaving in and out the small streets of the town, passed the elementary school where all the children were brought out to watch the parade. The parade went down Main Street and stopped for each class float at the courthouse to be judged.

The paraded ended and everyone began clean up.

*~*~*~*

Kagome got home around 5:00 had just enough time to get cleaned up, shower, eat dinner and get back to school before the game. She met up with Sango and they sat together during the game.

During the entire first half, Kagome's eye's never left a certain team captain. At half time Shard high was up by two touchdowns.

"Okay, Ladies and Gentlemen, you know what time it is!" the announcers voice broke through the cheers.

"May we have our Homecoming Queen candidates escorted to the home side of the field."

The girls were walked across one by one from the visitor's side to their places on the home side.

Kikyou was last in all her glory escorted by none other than Inuyasha, sweaty and dirty in his uniform. He kissed her cheek before he returned to his team. The crowd `awed.'

All five girls were facing the home bleachers. Behind them was last year's homecoming queen hold the jeweled crown up in the air. She passed over each girl's head a couple of times before placing the crown on Kikyou's head. Kikyou pretended to be shocked.

"Whoa! Didn't see that one coming!" Kagome remarked rolling her eyes.

Kagome felt a pain strike through her when Inuyasha can back over to the home side and kissed his queen. She tried to shake it off but couldn't.

After the crowd ceased their cheering, the announcer continued with the winner of the floats. Everyone went dead silent.

"Fourth place goes to the sophomores. Third place the freshman. And the second place goes to…" he paused for affect.

Juniors and seniors alike held their breath. Whichever class was second place then the other class was the winner.

"…the juniors. Which means this year's float competition winners is the Class of 2002."

Every senior jumped up, yelling and screaming in excitement, pride, joy, and happiness! The senior cheerleaders were out doing their victory dance with Kikyou up front holding her dress up so she could move. The senior football players jump and yelled around them!

After half time, the game resumed to become most stress half of football Kagome had ever watched. The game was tied right up till the end when Inuyasha and Miroku pulled a stunt and won the game by a touchdown.

Everyone from Buyo high hung their heads and they left the field and bleachers while Shard High partied.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*

Kagome had got home around three in the morning. There was a party after the game besides Sango, Miroku, Inuyasha, and Kagome everyone else had gotten drunk. Kagome and Sango took some people home, as did Inuyasha and Miroku so that there was no reason for anyone to drive home drunk. Kagome had finally dropped her last passenger off and made it home twenty minutes later.

She plopped on her bed and noted the time.

"Grrr…I have to get up in six hours and get ready for the dance." She complained as she got up to change in her pjs.

Her phone rang, `Who the hell would be calling this late at night?'

She grabbed the phone on the second ring hoping it had not wakened anyone in the house.

"Hello?"

"Hey!"

"Oh its you, I was wondering who was calling me this late."

"I just wanted to make sure you got home safely"

"Yeah, I'm good. You?"

"Already in my pajamas."

"Lucky, I am working on that."

"Yeah, good luck remember you wear your shirt on the upper half and your pants on the your lower half."

"Ok smartass"

"No problem, hey one more thing before I let you sleep. "

"Yeah?"

"I know we won't get to spend much time together tomorrow although we'll be together, if you know what I mean…and well…I was wondering if I could stop by after Kouga drops you off."

Kagome smiled, "Of course you can."

"Good! Then I will proclaim you owe me a dance when I come over."

"Then you shall have one."

"I better!" he heard Kagome giggle and his soul warmed.

"Well I need to sleep; lots to do in the morning." She said

"Yeah me too, Good night!"

"Night"

She hung up the phone, dressed in her pajamas and jumped into bed and it wasn't long before she fell asleep.
