InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Own up ❯ First Apologies ( Chapter 4 )

Hey. Boredom creates, huh? I wanted this chapter out before I went away for a few days but, oh well. I'm sorry.

I don't own Inuyasha, though it would be nice right.

Chapter 4- First day, first apologizes.

Kagome woke up dreading the day. She didn't feel like going to classes at all and her head was heavy and her eyes drooped. Honestly she was worried about what she had yelled. She had experience with demons and was sure that everyone in a twenty foot radius had heard her yelling.

'I'm never going to make any friends now. What was I thinking, coming here? I don't belong here.'

She looked threw her suit case, which hadn't she hadn't even bothered to unpack yet, for something to wear. She ignored the two outfits she had bought especially for the first week. She didn't really care anymore. She put on a pair of dark blue jeans, and a GA sweatshirt that had the G upside-down and the A and angle with a kid spray painting it, moving quickly.

Head bent she grabbed her books and key and left the room in less than twenty minutes. Kagome closed her door a little harder than she meant to. A boy looked over his shoulder at her and she blushed. The girl he had his arms around turned to glare at her.

 

“Sukiso! Claws off!” Someone yelled from down the hallway. The three people turned their heads to see Sango in a baby pink tank top and GA sweatpants.

 

Sukiso stared at Sango for a moment then grinned. “Whatever you say, Sango. Later Sango, Kagome.”

 

Kagome was shocked she knew her name but Sango called her over leaving her astonishment short lived.

 

“Kagome, come over here.” Kagome walked over slowly. “Come on. Hurry up. Classes start in an hour!” This is what Sango actually meant: Kagome. Please talk to me. I want to talk before classes.

 

“Sure thing, Sango. As long as you're not in a hurry.” Kagome said sarcastically. Sango snickered as Kagome entered her room again and sat down on the bed only to jump up.

 

Sango giggled. “Did I forget to say that I had my stuff on the bed?”

 

“You might have forgotten to mention it.” Kagome said.

 

“Sorry about that.” Sango said laughing watching Kagome rub her butt.

 

“Listen, Kagome” Sango started, digging through her closet “About Ayame.”

Kagome blushed. “Sango, I didn't mean to yell at her. I'm really sorry if I offended anyone.”

 

Sango laughed. “Kagome I wanted apologize to you! Ayame was totally out of line. I should have made her stop. I'm real sorry.” Sango made puppy eyes at Kagome who laughed. “Well anyway,” Sango stopped rummaging in her closet to turn to Kagome “Don't blame Ayame. She left to go to prep school for a year. She probably thought you had taken her spot. Canines are seriously territorial. That's probably it was so ugly when Koga starting dating Kikyo.” Sango returned to closet to hunting, “She used to date Inuyasha and then she just kind of moved on to Koga. It was a nasty breakup if I remember. He never did have any clean breaks. They still go out sometimes. What do you think of this?”

 

Kagome jumped a little at being asked a question. She had been listening to Sango a little more intently then Sango realized. If there was one thing Kagome knew from attending all those different schools was that inside information paid off in the long run.

 

“Uh, it's okay. I think it's missing something though.”

 

Sango had picked out a purple tee shirt that read “Artsy-fartsy” which was a school shirt and a pair of black pants. It seemed to be a tradition to wear school clothing on the first day. Kagome dived into Sango's closet coming up for air a minute later with a pair of studded jeans and a yellow necklace and some yellow bracelets.

 

“Kagome Higurashi you are a genius!” Sango said putting on the pants and jewelry looking herself over in the mirror. “What time is it?”

 

“8:30. Why?”

 

“C'mon. Give me your key.” Kagome handed Sango her key and Sango unlocked the door connected their rooms.

 

“Sango, what are we doing in here?”

 

Sango looked around Kagome's plain dorm room. There were no posters on the wall or clothes hanging out of the drawers.

 

“Later we're going unpack and get some stuff for your room. But first you've got to change.”

 

“What's wrong with what I'm wearing?” At the look on Sango's face Kagome decided she didn't want to know. “Never mind.”

 

Twenty minutes later Kagome was completely changed, not without many complaints though.

 

She was wearing a pair of black tie off capris, a white shirt and a GA vest over it (like the inside of a suit jacket just GA style) and a black beanie. Sango had insisted that when they went shopping later Kagome was to buy some red tee shirts and jewelry.

 

“Sango, are you sure this is okay to wear?”

 

“It's fine. Quit complaining. Look it's already 9. Let's go grab some breakfast before class starts.”

 

That said the two girls went down stairs for breakfast. Kagome had already seen the mess hall but she hadn't seen it with all of GA's students in it. She knew that GA was not only a high school but also a college and that many of the students chose to stay after senior year so the age range was from 15 to 24. What she didn't know was how many students there were. When she had seen it yesterday it had been with just the new kids from all the different years.

 

There were 200 new students at GA and that was a large amount. They had been given the day before off to, you know, unpack, explore, and escape older students, the usual. So this meant that Kagome, who had gone on the campus tour yesterday, had seen the Mess Hall but not with all the students in it. There had to be 3,000 students in there and four thousand different hair colors.

 

Sango spotted the look on Kagome's face, “3,105, including all of the new students as well.”

 

Kagome gave her an `oh.' kind of look and then said, “Um, Sango?”

 

“Yeah?”

 

“How long have you been here?”

 

“At GA?” Kagome nodded. “Ever since junior year with Inuyasha and Miroku. We've all been here together.”

 

“Oh. And Sango?”

 

“Wut's up, Kagome?”

 

“That girl, Sukiso, how did she know my name?”

 

Sango looked surprised for a moment then laughed. “Probably Lemon. The guy in the office, you know, he knows everyone around here. Everyone knows you by now.”

 

x.x.x.x.x

 

Inuyasha was staring impatiently around the crowd. Normally he could easily spot someone he was looking for even in the crowd of GA students. He was stretching his neck trying to see over the masses but he still couldn't see her.

 

“Miroku, have you seen Sango yet?”

 

Miroku studied his friend carefully. His bangs were messed up and he was wearing the same GA sweatshirt he wore yesterday with black jeans.

“No, no, and the last freaking time no.” Miroku said calmly taking a bite of his cream cheese and ketchup omelet. He watched his friend stretching his neck. He had asked him the same question every two minutes since they had arrived in the mess hall thirty minutes ago.

 

“Inu, I haven't seen Sango yet. I've been with you all day.”

 

“Right.”

 

“Why are you looking for Sango?” Shippo asked.

 

“Right. I mean uh, I just want to tell her something.”

 

Koga leaned to talk to his friends quietly. “He's not looking for Sango. He's looking for Kagome.” he said with a smirk.

 

Inuyasha blushed, “No I'm not. Why would I be looking for her?”
