Nagataka

Chapter 2

Car Ride

Kagome sighed. She was bored. It was third period and all her friends weren't in this class. The one class she had with Inu. Yes, she still called him Inu, but only in her mind, for they were no longer friends, and that was her fault.

"So, I will be assigning you partners for the project," the teacher said, Kagome finally zoning in to hear what was said.

"Let's see, how about Akemi Inu Yasha and Hiragashi Kagome," the teacher said when they were the only two left.

"WHAT!" Inu Yasha yelled out.

"NO!" Kagome yelled at the same time. They glared at each other for the rest of the class period. After school, they left at roughly the same time and she ran over to him and

said, "Library, tonight, 5, be there."

"Can't," he smirked.

"Why the hell not?" She questioned.

"Because, unlike you who gets everything handed to you for free, I have to work for what I have," he told her coldly.

"Tomorrow?" She asked.

"Why are you so intent on working on this project?" He asked.

"I don't want to be around you any more than I have to," she insulted him.

"I couldn't have said so better myself, Kagome," he smirked. "But, yeah, I have tomorrow off," he told her.

"Good," she walked off. 'Hard to believe that she and I were once friends,' he thought.

"Hey! Inu Yasha!" A familiar male voice called out to him. He whipped around and came face to face with his friends, Miroku, Sango, and Kouga.

"Hey, Inu Yasha, what's up with your little conversation with Princess Kagome?" Kouga asked.

"Unfortunately for me, I have to work with her on a project," he replied.

"Sucks to be you," Kouga told his friend.

"Jerk," Sango's voice cut in. Both guys turned around to see Naraku walk by, his arm around Kikyo, Inu Yasha's ex girlfriend. It was no secret that Sango despised her twin brother Naraku, and that fact was only intensified when he stole her one of her friend's girlfriend away. They glared at the couple for a few moments as they passed by the small group.

"Let's go," Miroku said after the two had passed by.

"Yeah, I have to pick Shippo up from daycare," Kouga told his friends. They nodded and headed off to the school parking lot. "Later!" Kouga called, going to his car and driving off.

"So, we're taking my car, aren't we?" Inu Yasha asked after a few moments.

"Guess so," Sango shrugged. Inu Yasha started walking towards his car when he heard a loud smack and Sango yelling. He sighed, but turned around and waited for his friends.

"PERVERT!" Sango yelled, hitting Miroku on the head with her duffel bag.

"Sango! I'm sorry, really!" Miroku pleaded.

"What'd he do this time Sango?" Inu Yasha called out, distracting her. He had no intentions of taking Miroku to the hospital and be late for work.

"You know what he did!" She yelled back. He sighed, knowing what she said was true.

"I'm gonna be late for work if you two don't hurry up! If your not here by the time I get to twenty, I'm leaving without you!" He yelled to them. "1! 2!"

"Think he's serious?" Miroku asked.

"Maybe," Sango answered.

"He's not in a good mood today, so he probably is," Miroku told her.

"Yeah," Sango replied.

"17!"

"Let's go," Sango said, grabbing Miroku's arm and sprinting towards Inu Yasha just as he reached twenty. Sango slid into her normal spot behind Inu Yasha and Miroku slid in next to her. It was an unspoken rule that they always sat in the same spots in Inu Yasha and Kouga's cars. Inu Yasha pealed out of the parking lot, almost hitting "Princess Kagome" and her friends.

"Did you see their faces?" Sango said, cracking up.

"That was so hilarious!" Miroku joined her. Inu Yasha cracked a rare smile. Sango reached over the seats and turned on his radio, blaring the cd he had in.

"Later!" Miroku called when he was dropped off.

"Hey, Inu Yasha, can I ask you something?" Sango asked as he drove off to take her home.

"What?" He asked.

"You know the Sadie Hawkins Dance that's coming up?" She asked, blushing slightly.

"Yeah," he answered.

"There's this guy I wanna ask, but I'm afraid he'll say no. How do you think I should ask him?" She asked.

"Is it Miroku?" Inu Yasha asked. "Because if it is, then all you gotta do is ask him and he'll say yes."

"No, it's not Miroku, it's someone else," she told him.

"Then, I'm not really sure how you would ask him. Sango, you know I'm not good with people, I've known you longer than I have the other two," he sighed.

"Yeah," she said. "Bye," she said as he pulled up by her house.

"Later Sango," he told her.

"Bye Inu Yasha," she said. 'I had my chance to ask him but I missed it! How stupid can I be!' She thought to herself as he left. Inu Yasha had no idea what was going on inside her and drive away to Tony's for another night of working for minimum wage. When his shift was over, he drove home. Just as he reached his street, his cell phone rang.

"Yes?" He asked irritably.

"Inu Yasha?" Kikyo's voice asked.

"What do you want Kikyo?" He asked, even more irritable.

"I'm, I'm...." she began to say, but the line went dead.

"Kikyo, you there?" He asked. 'Wonder what she was going to say?' He thought as he pulled into his driveway.

A/N: Hee, hee, hee. This chapter's a cliffy! Any guesses as to what Kikyo was gonna say? Also, any guesses as to how Shippo and Kouga are related? It'll be a shocker. I like that Sango has a crush on Inu and he doesn't know. I wonder if she'll ask him to the dance or not. Well, you guys will just have to wait and see, I'm gonna start on chapter three!
