InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ New Look ❯ Inuyasha's Response and Kikyou's Jealousy ( Chapter 2 )

He looked her up and down, drinking in her looks. The once acne plagued face was now cleared up leaving behind pale baby soft skin. The thick spectacles that once rested on her nose were gone. In their place, contacts were put in. (A/N: not that he can see the contacts but I don't think she got laser eye surgery that soon.) Dumpy narrow-legged slacks and over sized sweatshirts, which looked like they had seen better days, that once donned her petite frame, were now, ditched for much more fashionable articles of clothing. The bird's nest that was her hair was combed out and properly cared for proved to show she had long silky tresses. He couldn't believe his eyes, she was drop dead gorgeous. His stare didn't go unnoticed by Sango. A clearing of the throat brought him back to reality.

 

 

“So Inu what do you think?” inquired Sango.

“Keh, so she changed her look. That doesn't mean the rest of her has changed. Knowing her she'll have her nose buried in those stupid books of hers as soon as first period begins.”

 

Miroku and Sango just sighed and shook their heads.

Kagome didn't want to show it but that remark stung, and brought her out of her stupor of staring at Inuyasha. Before he opened his trap, she had been taking in his looks. Baggy carpenter's jeans (A/N: I have a thing for guys in carpenter's jeans… don't ask XD) hung loosely at his hips and a red Hurley shirt fit his torso perfectly. Showing off his built body, but not so tight that it looked like a second skin on him. His pin-straight silver hair was let loose from his usual low pony tail, and the two ears perched on top of his head were busily checking out his environment. But the one thing she could never get over was his deep amber eyes. They weren't always readable, but there were glints of mischievousness. If given the choice and if it were possible, she'd drown in those amber pools any day. However, it was a shame that his looks didn't match his attitude.

 

 

“Come on Kags, let's get to class. Maybe there'll be other people who would compliment you instead of criticize.” Sango was almost at her wits end with the hanyou. If it weren't for the fact Miroku hung around him, she'd probably never talk to him. Just before they the reached the door, a blur passed in front of them and stopped the pair in their tracks.

 

 

“My, my, what do we have here? Looks like you found yourself a new friend Sango…and what would a pretty thing like you be doing hanging around that worthless piece of crap mutt over there?”

 

 

A low growl could be heard from Inuyasha and Sango was getting annoyed at the fact people would think she would dump Kagome for some other girl.

 

“I feel like some automated machine.” Sango rolled her eyes. “Kouga if you open your eyes, you'll realize this is Kagome.” said an exasperated Sango. I don't know how much more of this I can take. It was all fine and dandy now it's getting plain annoying.

 

 

Kagome saw the look Sango had on her face and took it upon herself to explain what happened to her over the summer. After that was all said and done, she could feel eyes boring holes into her back. Those eyes belonged to Inuyasha. An almost inaudible growl could be heard as well. Kouga, being the demon he is, heard this and put his arm around Kagome knowing fully well it would get Inuyasha pissed. Kagome blushed at Kouga's forwardness. No guy had ever bothered to touch her, let alone go within ten feet of her. Just then the bell rang, signaling the students to get to their homerooms to receive their schedules.

 

 

“See ya later Kagome, maybe we can go out sometime! Oh and dog breath, keep your eyes off my woman.” Kouga smirked at the look on Inuyasha's face and gave a genuine smile to Kagome.

 

 

“Bye Kouga.” Sango and Kagome said at the same time.

 

 

“Come on Yash, we're going to be late.” called Miroku who was already inside the school.

 

 

Inuyasha finally snapped out of it and ran toward Miroku.

 

~~~ In Homeroom ~~~

 

Throughout homeroom, all Inuyasha could think about was his reaction to Kagome. No doubt she looked good, but why had he growled when Kouga came around. Hell he even already had a girlfriend, Kikyou. But guys hang all over her, why doesn't he get possessive when they drool over his girlfriend? He constantly wracked his brain for the answer but got absolutely nothing. All he kept coming up with was pictures of Kagome and how good she looked. He was so deep in thoughts that he almost missed his name being called to pick up his schedule. If it weren't for Sango (A/N: Yes they're in the same home room, in my school we go by last names. Inuyasha's last name is Taisho, and Sango's is Taijya. And yes Kagome and Miroku are in the same homeroom as well, Higurashi and Houshi.) shaking him, he'd be missed completely.

 

 

Homeroom was the only class they had that day, so for the rest of the day students could do whatever they wanted. (A/N: Another thing they do at my school, stupid yes I know.) Before school started, Sango and Kagome made plans to meet Miroku after homeroom. And, of course, with Miroku comes Inuyasha. As they waited for Inuyasha to make his way over to their group, a high pitched and sickly sweet voice rang throughout the courtyard. Inuyasha cringed and laid his ears flat against his head. Yes this was Kikyou, and although she was his girlfriend, he couldn't stand it when she did that. Before he knew it he was tackled, from behind, to the ground.

 

 

“Hey Kikyou…” said a bored and abused Inuyasha.

“Hey sweetie… What? Aren't you glad to see me? Oh how I've missed you so. You know being in America for the entire summer made me so bored, all I could think of was you.” she ranted in her pouty voice.

“Of course I missed you…” before he could continue, she planted a big wet one on him, tongue and all. It was gross; all he could taste was lipstick. Again, although she was his girlfriend he was quickly getting tired and annoyed with her. When they finally broke for air, he quickly told her that he had to go out with friends and pointed to where they were.

 

 

Over by the tree, the trio was gagging and choking on their own spit. They could have gone their merry way without having to see that `public display of affection'.

 

 

~~~Back with Inuyasha and Kikyou~~~

 

“Inu baby… Who's that girl over there?”

“Her? Oh that's Kagome.”

“Don't lie to be baby who is she really?”

“I'm not lying, that really is her. She got some sort of make-over over the summer.” Inuyasha shrugged as if it didn't matter but a flash of jealousy went by Kikyou's face when he said that.

 

Kikyou didn't like the fact that Inuyasha wasn't showing much interest in her, and was going out with Kagome and the pervert and the pervert beater. Especially since that Higurashi girl got made up and looked as good as her. Kikyou would never admit Kagome actually looked better than her. Quickly putting back her `loving' face, she told Inuyasha that she wouldn't be keeping him any longer and that he was to call her when he got back. He just shrugged and got off the grass and walked over to his patiently waiting friends. After a quick debate on where to go eat first, they settled on a little restaurant which had a surprisingly large selection to choose from on the menu.

 

Kikyou watched the four bicker over where to eat, and made a vow to herself to stop Kagome at all costs from getting close to her Inuyasha, even if it meant using her popularity to start dirty rumors.

 

 

A/N: Ooooh what does Kikyou have up her sleeve now? Seriously can you tell me cuz I have nooo idea XD haha j/k. Tell me what you think of this chapter too, I love the feed back. I wonder how long this strike is gonna last…I'm actually missing school right now, actually I just fear the mass of homework we're going to be getting once we get back eep!
