InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ From Hate To Love ❯ Miss Intellectual and Mr. Popularity ( Chapter 1 )

Chapter One: Miss Intellectual and Mr. Popularity

Kagome Higurashi was a fifteen year old girl who attended Sengoku High School in Tokyo, Japan. She had black hair that reached just past her shoulders, and beautiful brown eyes. She lived with her mother, grandfather, and brother at the Sunset Shrine. She wasn't the most popular of girls at her school, but she was happy with the amount of friends she had. What she wasn't happy about was a certain half-demon called Inuyasha.

Inuyasha also attended Sengoku High School. He was the most popular and handsome guy in school. Everywhere he went he seemed to have a flock of girls crowded around him, or at least never far behind him. He was half dog-demon and had long silver hair that reached down to his waist which one would usually think would be totally unfit for a guy, but it suited him perfectly. He had dog-ears on top of his head and unusual amber coloured eyes. He also had no last name which people thought was mysteriously cool. He lived with his full demon older brother Sesshomaru which added to the cause of his popularity.

When Sesshomaru was in high school, he was the popular bad boy type. Every girl wanted him and every guy wanted to be him. He had broken most of the schools rules and was the cause for new ones to be made. It shocked everyone when he managed to graduate with full credits. He went on to college and according to just about everyone, he threw the best dorm parties around.

Kagome had known Inuyasha since they were in preschool. They used to be friends until girls were said to have 'cooties' and boys were found gross. Even once they got over these little mishaps, they still didn't like each other. Inuyasha found pleasure in picking and pulling pranks on Kagome at every chance he got. Kagome managed to get a good amount of stress released from her every time she yelled at him for his stupid, insensitive behaviour. This caused people to talk and start rumours about them every time they fought. Things like "they fight like their married" and "they make such a cute couple. You know what they say, when you like someone you usually express it through anger." Kagome felt disgusted when ever one of these little bits of gossip found there way to her ears. She had tried not responding to Inuyasha's pranks in hopes of shutting the lid on the rumours about her, but that just made him more insistent to make her mad, which he succeeded in doing every time. It didn't help when most of her friends gave into the gossip and started questioning her feelings for Inuyasha. She didn't know how anyone could even think that. He pulled a prank on her just about every week, it didn't make her fall head over heels in love with the guy, it made her want to strangle the jerk. Some people just didn't know what they were talking about.

Today seemed to no different. Kagome reached her school with ten minutes to spare before her first class. There were many people outside chatting amongst themselves as usual. She found it suspicious though when almost everyone seemed to be giving her sideway glances from the corners of their eyes. Then the whispering started. Kagome rolled her eyes figuring it was probably because of the latest trick Inuyasha had pulled on her. She continued walking up towards the door, which was unusually clear. Usually people would be busy going in and out of the building or just standing around the door casually. She shrugged and kept going. She felt all of the eyes of her fellow students on her as she pulled open the handle on the door.

When she stepped through, she felt a big blob of something fall on to her head. It was white and sticky. She looked up to see a big bucket tied to a ceiling beam that read 'GLUE'. She felt the anger boiling inside her already. Once she got a hold of that hanyou, oh how he was going to hear her wrath. She took a step forward only to feel her foot touch a string. Before she could even think about what was going to happen, another bucket came down on her head.

She could hear the bits of poorly stifled laughter coming from around her as she pulled the bucket off her head. A few feathers fell around her. She looked at her hair and uniform. Both were matted with the feathers and glue. She could even feel the substances stuck to her face. If her face hadn't been partially covered by all the feathers, to an on going student she would have looked like she was on the verge of exploding.

"INUYASHA!" She screamed angrily. He came strolling around the corner in fits of laughter. He burst out laughing when he saw the effect of his prank. His group of fans soon came after him and joined his laughing fest. His best friend Miroku looked like he was about to pee himself he was laughing so hard.

"What's the…matter…Kagome? Don't ya… like chicken?" Inuyasha asked through his laughter. "Bwak! Bwak!" This caused a whole knew kind of laughter to begin. The your-laughing-so-hard-you-can't-breath-and-your-on-the-floor-with-tears-in- your-eyes kind of laughter.

"Why you mean, selfish, non coherent jerk! I ought ta kick you where it hurts the most!" She began stomping towards him, her brows furrowed and her eyes fixed with anger.

"Hahaha…What…are you going ta do? Huh? Answer me that Miss Intellectual." Kagome clenched her fists tightly at the question. What could she do? She couldn't really punch him, could she? …Of course she could…she should! It should at least shut him and everyone else up, right? She brought her fist up and it met clearly with the side of his face, just as the principal came walking around the corner. She looked furious but yet confused as she watched the scene take place.

"Kagome Higurashi! Inuyasha! My office! NOW!" She turned on her heel and left.

Kagome looked shocked to see the principal there but she reluctantly followed. Inuyasha looked glad. He wouldn't have to take all the blame this time. Kagome would get in trouble too. He smirked at the thought and followed along side Kagome who averted his gaze frustratingly.

"Aww, what's the matter Kagome? Never been in twouble before?" He asked in a mock baby voice. Kagome narrowed her eyes at him and was about to yell at him some more for that statement, when they reached the principal's office. Inuyasha pulled open the door for her.

"After you… sir." He said. They took a seat in the two chairs facing the principal's desk. The principal soon walked in after them and slammed the door shut before taking a seat at her desk.

"Never in my years… Miss Higurashi since when do you give in to Mr. Inuyasha's tricks? I know many teachers before have had to separate the little word quarrels you two seem to have ever time you see each other, but it's usually just Mr. Inuyasha who gets sent down here. Fighting is against the rules and you know it!" She spat out. "Both of you will have detention…AND you'll be working in the cafeteria all week. That's not nearly enough of a punishment for punching someone but since it was your first time doing it and he seemed to deserve it, this should be fine. Now both of you leave. I'll call your teachers and tell them you'll be late. Mr. Inuyasha you can go down to the staff room and ask for some ice for that bruise that's forming on your cheek. Miss Higurashi you may go to the washroom and try to rinse that glue out of your hair." Kagome nodded and both left for their assigned destinations.
