InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Racing Hearts ❯ Bump ( Chapter 3 )
Bump
Sango said hi here and there while Kagome tried to ignore the dozens of eyes on her. A girl
who smelled strongly of perfume bounced in front of her.
"Kikyo! Kikyo! You won't BELIEVE it! I just found the juiciest gossip-"
"I'm not Kikyo."
The girl stopped bouncing around and looked at Kagome carefully.
"Are you sure?" she said, obviously confused.
"No, she is not. So go away."
Sango stared down the girl until she gave a huff and bounced away.
"Come on, I'll show you my friends. It's pretty much a group of boys, you don't really want to
hang out with the girls around here. They are mostly Kikyo's gang."
"Will I meet this famed Kikyo?"
"We might have her in a few classes, oh, there she is right now."
Sango rolled her eyes.
"With her usual entrance, of course."
Kagome craned her neck to see above the heads of students. A beautiful girl had just walked
in, her long hair was straightened to perfection. And the contrast between her dark hair and
her pale skin really drew the eye to to her face. Kagome could see they looked slightly
similar, but she would never wear that gaudy, heavy makeup. Especially that bright red
lipstick that almost blinded her eyes. She walked as if she owned the school grounds and
smiled seductively to a few chosen boys.
"So what do you think of the queen of our school?"
"Let's just say if she rules me around, she's in for a rude awakening."
"Just be careful. Kikyo pretty much leaves me alone because I hang out with the guys. Who
knows what kind of idea of torture she might come up with you."
"Don't worry Sango, I hate fights, they're very....scary."
Sango's gaze was a little wary, but she gave a smile.
"Enough about the queen of whores...erm...the queen of girls, come and meet the guys."
Sango led her to a group of boys hanging around under a large oak tree. Two boys caught her
attention very quickly. One was that annoying flirtacious man from last night and the
other....almost took her breath away. He was talking to the man from last night and took no
notice of the girls' appearance. He had long silvery hair that was almost white in the sun's
rays. And his golden eyes radiated a stubborn but light hearted personality. Kagome's staring
made him move his eyes from the man to her.
"Who's she?" he said, rather roughly.
"She's new, just moved into my apartment building. Boys, this is Kagome. Kagome, the boys.
And Miroku...hands off!"
The man from last night gave a helpless smile and gave Sango a kiss on the cheek. The boys
crowded around her, greetings coming from every direction. But one boy didn't come over to
greet her, and that was the guy with the golden eyes. Sango, noticing this, reached over and
punched him in the arm.
"Hey, you can at least be nice to Kagome-chan, Inuyasha."
*Inuyasha, huh? Weird name, never heard of it before*
"Strange name, isn't?" Someone whispered right by her ear. Kagome's lightning reflexes made
her turn around before she could think, smacking her forehead into someone else's. She
closed her eyes for a second and winced. When she opened her eyes she was looking into
alluring pools of gold. At first she thought it was Inuyasha's, but these eyes were cold and
emotionless, not stubborn and light hearted. She moved back a bit to see what appeared to be
a taller and more...more handsome version of Inuyasha. He had beautifully defined
cheekbones, a tall nose, and the same hair and eye color as Inuyasha. *Brothers?* Then she
noticed a reddish spot on the side of his forehead. She reached up to her own forehead and
winced again as bolts of pain shot through her head.
"I'm so sorry! It's just that you snuck up on me...and..um....I'm sorry?"
He looked down at her with such arrogance that Kagome's fiery temper began to pop out.
"Hey, I said I was sorry."
He grabbed her arm and began to drag her into the school building. She heard shouts coming
from the group of boys and Sango but it was ignored as he led her up a flight of stairs and
down a long corridor. He opened a door and pushed her into a...nurse's office? A woman
appeared out of nowhere at the sound of the door closing and immediately began to inspect
the bump on her forehead and most likely Inuyasha's brother's. She began to go tut tut and
started to rummage through a refrigerator. She had two bags of ice in her hand and gave one
each to her and Inuyasha's brother. Then she shooed them out of the office and shut the door.
Kagome, with a bag of ice on her large bump, tried to appear as dignified as she could. He, on
the other hand, held his on his forehead as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
Kagome almost blushed at the stares she was receiving from other students but tried to
imagine being very angry at this person.
"All you had to do was ask me to go with you to the nurse, you didn't have to drag me as if I'm
some child."
He looked amused and said nothing. Kagome felt her eyes begin to narrow and stopped
herself in time. There was no way she was going to start her first day at her first public school
with a fight. She gave a smile and bowed politely to him.
"Thank you for helping me, have a good day."
As she walked down the hallway he stared at her and wondered what kind of girl she was to
have such reflexes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~
"Don't worry Sango, it's just a little bump."
"Little? You call this little? It looks likes someone took a baseball bat and hit you on the
forehead!"
"The ice is helping. And if worse comes to worse, I can always hide it with my bangs."
Sango gave a sigh and put her head in her arms.
"There I was, hoping you would have a great day, and then you hit your forehead on the
famous Sesshoumaru. And we still have Kikyo to deal with! What in heaven's name could
happen next?"
There was a loud commotion by the door and Kagome turned her head toward it. There was a
boy with long hair tied up in a ponytail making a very loud entrance. He was laughing and
talking loudly with his friends. Sango didn't even look up and began to groan.
"I jinxed it."
"Jinxed what?"
"I thought Kouga moved."
"Kouga?"
"You hear that loud racket? There is most likely a buffoon standing by the door making as
much noise as possible laughing and talking."
"Right on target."
"That buffoon is Kouga. And once Inuyasha comes in, prepare yourself."
Kagome was about to put out a question when an argument began to happen. Inuyasha had
just come in and was now yelling face to face with Kouga.
"You idiot! Why don't you take a seat instead of having your big head take up the doorway!"
"I'm a free man and I can do whatever I want! I don't need some dogbreath telling me what to
do!"
And it just went on and on from there with language that Kagome only heard on the streets. A
woman, probably the teacher, was standing behind them with a frightened look on her face.
"Shouldn't the teacher do something?"
"Mrs. Yura can never control them, does't really have a firm hand in discipline. A really nice
person and good teacher. She just can't control the boys."
Kagome could feel impatience stirring inside. *This is my first day in a public school, and I'm
not letting it get ruined by two idiots!* Kagome got up and stomped to the two boys. She
grabbed a handful each of their hair and pulled roughly. Both stopped arguing and yowled at
the pain in their heads. Kagome let go and at the same time they both put their hands on their
heads and said, "What the hell was that for?!"
"Shut up, take a seat, and let the teacher teach, got it?"
They stared at her for a moment and was about to say something when Kagome put up a
hand.
"Don't make me pull again."
Muttering curses under their breaths, they reluctantly went to their seats. Mrs. Yura gave a
look of gratitiude to Kagome and waved Kagome back to her seat. Sango gave her a pat on the
back.
"They are usually like this in the beginning of the year, the first day is always the worst. Good
job Kagome! I didn't know you had such a way with the boys."
Kagome put her head in her hands, just like Sango had been doing before, and gave a similar
groan. *What else is going to happen today?!*
