InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Help Me Out ❯ Oof! ( Chapter 4 )

a/n: I know, I know, I took too long to write this chapter. You see, I went into what I call a "reading frenzy", meaning I don't get on the computer half as much as I normally do and read real books twice as much as usual. Also, my computer went all stupid again (the internet stopped working, among other things), and I got a big project due in Language Arts on the play "The Crucible". It's due this week and I have yet to start on it, so forgive me if this chapter sounds kind of choppy. It's because I keep on stopping and working on my project, then starting again.

Anyways…

Oof!

"Oof!" Kagome went sprawling as someone knocked into her. Her bags flew across the floor a ways and the contents of her purse spilled out. "Oh, shit…" Quickly getting to her knees, she crawled across the floor gathering up her belongings before they got trampled.

"Inuyasha!" a voice said behind her. "Apologize!"

"Keh! Why should I? She was standing in my way. It's her own fault!"

Kagome's eyes narrowed angrily as she continued collecting her things off the ground. The nerve! She was in his way?! Internally fuming, she was unprepared for the hand held out in front of her, an offer of assistance from a boy about her age with black hair tied in a tiny rattail in the back.

"You'll have to excuse Inuyasha," the boy said as Kagome took his hand and he pulled her up. "He doesn't have the best manners…"

"Oh, that's all right," Kagome replied, aware of the fact that just a moment ago she had been furious.

"My name is Miroku, and on behalf of my rude, dolt of a friend, I would like to offer my sincerest apologies."

"Thank you," Kagome said a bit nervously. Miroku hadn't let go of her hand yet… "Ummm… do you think… you could… ummm… let go now?"

"Why, of course, milady!" he replied, still not letting go of her hand.

"Ummmm….." Kagome was beginning to get extremely frustrated with this guy. If he didn't let go soon, she'd-

*Bap* !

The other boy- the one who bumped into her earlier- bopped his friend on the head with a fist. "Can it, Miroku!" he said, with about as much irritation in his voice as was in Kagome's. "This is no time to be perverted! Weren't you just pestering me about manners??" His voice dripped with sarcasm. He did not feel like putting up with Miroku's antics.

Kagome, who had been busy dealing with Miroku, had not yet had a good look at the person who had knocked her down earlier. Looking at him now, she was admittedly startled by his appearance. He had long, black hair and deep, violet eyes (a/n: yes people, he's human in this fic). He would have been positively handsome were it not for the scowl on his face…

"And what are you staring at, wench?" the boy asked irritably. Apparently, the old saying was true-you really can't judge a book by its cover…

"Hey, Kagome, what happened?" Sango had finally noticed the Kagome was no longer following her.

"Nothing, I'm fine," Kagome said, shooting a death glare at a certain purple-eyed boy. "Come on, Sango. We need to get our luggage." She grabbed Sango's hand and began to haul her off towards baggage claim.

Miroku watched them as they stalked off and whistled. "I'm liking America already!"

"Oh shut up, you pervert!" Inuyasha said crossly. "Let's just go get our stuff." And with that, he headed in the direction the two girls had gone in just a second before, leaving Miroku behind.

"Hey! Wait up!"
