The Getaway

I can't get just ant girl

But I got the one I wanted anyway

I wasn't born to save your world

I came too far for turning back again

Of all I needed it's all here

Life's the cure for all the bad you did

And I know, I hear too much,

I think too much, too much about

The Getaway - High Holy Days [my inspiration for this chap.]

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Detention-the most feared punishment for all those who attend Windsor High. All because of one single person-if you can even call it that. You think that detention will be a breeze, talk all you want and laugh with the rest of those troublemakers that you've heard about. But you've got another thing coming your way. As soon as you set foot into that classroom-seeing him just sitting there with that grin on his face. You know that deep down it's full of evil-as is he. You sit down in your seat and so begins the longest 2 hours of your life. You think 2 hours, a breeze-but that's not the half of it. Just being in his presence makes you like the living dead. That's exactly the way Kagome felt as she sat slumped in her chair, waiting for the perfect time.

Inuyasha was sitting beside her-on her right. There were only about 10 students in the classroom, mostly all juniors or freshmen. Kagome and Inuyasha seemed to be the only seniors. The one and only Mr. Lewis, King of Torture, sat behind his desk with his arms crossed over his chest. He looked about to fall asleep at any time, but Kagome couldn't be so sure. She kept glancing over at her partner in crime and then slipped her phone out of her pocket. She looked at Inuyasha until he caught her eye and phase one sprung into action.

Inuyasha got up and made his way over to the man in charge of their punishment. He looked up at him with daring eyes and then he did the dumbest thing he could ever do.

"Mr. Lewis, I was just wondering to myself about the wonders of verbs and prepositional phrases. I can't remember what exactly are significant about them and since you are and English teacher, if you could possibly refresh my memory?" He asked kicking his shoe against the ground lightly.

"Why of course! Now listen closely because this will be some food for your memory!" He said before starting into his little lecture. Kagome got right the signal and started to quickly type a text message to Miroku. She made it as quick as possible and quickly sent it. It had said `Stuk in deten. w/ Inu. Help!' She looked back up to see the man still in deep discussion and waited for her message back. It came quickly to her and she read it as fast without a single noise. `We'll handle. B der ASAP.'

She tucked her phone away and looked back at Inuyasha who looked like he was about to fall down. He looked back at Kagome and knew that she was done. He waited until the perfect moment to interrupt the rattling teacher.

"Thank you for the insight, I think I have an overview and a deeper look at them." He said before turning away to his seat.

"Anytime boy, I'm always here to-" He stopped when a sharp knocking came from the back door. "Wonder who that could be?" He got up off his fat ass and waddled over to the back door. He opened it wide and saw no one before knocking came from the door at the front of the class. He let the door swing shut, but it never did. He failed to notice though as he opened the door to see Sango standing there.

"Hi Mr. L! I'm picking up my friend's homework who's in your period 5 class, so I was wondering if you could give it to me? She's been away from Monday and I'll be needing that too." She said in a sugar sweet tone.

"Why certainly, come in here dear." He said turning around and walking over to stacks of colorful paper. As soon as he was busy Sango looked back at them and then to the back door where Miroku was standing with the door opened. They got the message and quickly and quietly got their stuff and started to creep their way to the back of the class. Sango kept answering his questions as she watched them leave.

"And that's all of it I believe!" He said handing her a large stack and a book. She accepted it and then walked back out the way she came. Inuyasha and Kagome were waiting silently in the hall before the door closed and then she placed the stuff on the ground before sprinting down the hall. The other's got the idea and followed suit. They were almost out of breath as they ran out the back of the school, walking along side the football field. There was a senior team practice going on, so they had to stay their distance.

"That was priceless, imagine the look on his face when he realizes that were gone!" Kagome exclaimed as she breathed in deeply.

"Yeah! You were pretty good Sango, if I don't say so myself." Miroku said placing an arm around her. She laughed but made sure that his hands didn't wander out of safe territory. They continued to walk, joking about the man and how clueless he is until the football players scattered for a break. A few came to the sidelines where they were walking, and out of those few was one in particular that had the hots for one of them girls.

"Hey Higurashi!" Number 57 exclaimed as he started to tug off his helmet. He was wearing his white jersey that was currently supporting brown and green stains from the ground. His sandy brown hair fell into his eyes but he brushed it away to show her his soft brown eyes. He flashed her a smile that would've made any normal girl's knee's give out-but Kagome wasn't normal.

"Hey Hojo, how's practice?" Kagome asked out of politeness.

"Pretty good, we're getting ready for the game Thursday against Argyle. They're so going down."

"Yeah I mean you're the stair running back! Who wouldn't win with your speed and agility?"

"You're too kind Higurashi. You going to come and watch me?" He asked hopefully.

"I'm so sorry Hojo! I'm going away for the weekend, I'm sorry though."

"Well there's always next game." A whistle sounded from a pudgy looking coach. "Back to practice I go, see you later Higurashi."

"Bye Hojo." She turned away and continued to walk about the side to Miroku's car. Inuyasha was looking at her and then back at the field, trying to figure out who he was. Sango noticed and filled him in.

"That was Hojo Kianna. Star running back of the Windsor Dukes senior football team, and school heart-throb. He's had it for Kagome ever since our freshman year and has been asking her out ever since. Always turns him down but he doesn't give up easily. Some say that he wants to marry our little Kagome, but it could be just a rumor." She said smirking at Kagome who suddenly turned red.

"Oh, I see. Friendly flirting?" He asked nudging her in the side.

"No! I was not flirting with him, he's just a friend!" She said elbowing him in the side.

"Sure, okay Kagome." He said as Miroku unlocked his car for the four of them to get in. "Now home we go.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Wednesday flew by, and soon Inuyasha and Kagome found themselves waiting on Kagome's stairs for Miroku and Sango to show up. It was around 8:30 since Miroku insisted that they head out before they got swamped in traffic. He also told Inuyasha that he'd pick them up at Kagome's house since it was easier for him. Kagome was lying on the sidewalk on top of her sleeping bag and duffel bag trying to catch up on her sleep while Inuyasha was zoned out on the steps.

Since it being very early, Kagome was still wearing what she slept in. Her black sweatpants with the ends pulled down over her heels and a black and white spaghetti strap. It had Famous in different letters across the front and back and was tight fitting. She hadn't had time to grab a sweatshirt from her bag-which all of hers were packed in-so Inuyasha offered her his that he hadn't bothered wearing. It was black with ATTICUS in `New Times Roman' lettering across the front. On the side of the arm was the two T's with the shadow, looking like cross's in a graveyard. She had on her shoes and wore her aviators. Her hair was tied loosely in the back and she definitely wore no make-up.

Inuyasha was sitting in his came shorts and his white Hurley shirt. Hurley was written in pink letters with black shadows, and the symbol was black and pink-each on opposite sides. He had on his Osiris and a black leather band with red stitching of patterns on it. Underneath he had a black long sleeve shirt so that the tee shirt was over lapping the longer sleeved one. He had on a red DC hat and was mindlessly staring out across the road. Miroku said he'd be there in five minutes, and it had already been 15.

Before Inuyasha was about to give up hope, a black car stopped in his view and he snapped back to reality. A tired Sango was getting out of the passenger side and a awake Miroku from the other side. He looked like he'd gulped down a few pots of black coffee.

"Guys! We're here, now let's get your stuff packed into the trunk." He said opening the back of the car. Kagome moaned as Inuyasha nudged her with his foot. She slapped it away and went back to her sleepy mode. He gave Miroku his sleeping bag and duffel bag before lifting a tired Kagome up. She didn't struggle to be put down as he put her in the back seat where they had to sit. Sango got the front unfortunately.

Being a gentleman he took Kagome's bags and gave them to Miroku to stuff in the trunk. Amazingly with all of the stuff they were bring it all fit. Miroku was wearing a toque; black long sleeve shirt with Vans written it white with black and white checkered on the sides of the word. He wore his jeans with his studded belt and the same purple cloth and rosary on his left hand. Sango was dressed a lot like Kagome, only she had on navy blue ones and they had patches of different fabric sewn on in different places. She had on a blue sweatshirt with Roxy written all over it in different styles of font. She had on a few rings and a watch that looked a little sporty for her own style.

"Get in now." Sango snapped sleepily as she waited for him to get in. He got in quick, not wanting to piss Sango off more than she already was for being woken up too early. Kagome had taken up the whole back seat and Inuyasha couldn't help but laugh at her. She was definitely not a morning person.

"Hey `Yash, did you bring your CDs? Because I forgot mine and I can't sit through stupid radios." Miroku asked looking at him in the rearview mirror. He nodded and reached over to the sleeping Kagome. His CD case was small, but it packed loads of CDs. She didn't stir when he reached a hand into his pocket and grabbed onto his CD case. But it just happened to be right by her lower area and her eyes flew open at the contact.

"What are you doing?" She asked as she observed him from behind her shades.

"Getting my CDs for Miroku." He said realizing what it might look like to her. She didn't respond so he pulled out the case and handed it to Miroku. "And you need to sit up because I can't really sit with you lying in my way." He added. She hesitated and then pulled herself up. As soon as he got a comfy position Kagome pulled down her glasses so she could look at him. Miroku started up the car and began to drive, but Kagome seemed to be thinking.

"Okay I want to sleep. You want to sleep. Don't get any ideas but I've got one myself." She said looking at his eyes through her narrowed ones. "Okay if you sort of twist yourself so you put your feet there, and then leaned against…Sango you got a pillow up there?"

Sango threw back a pillow to Kagome. She caught it and handed it to Inuyasha.

"Leaned against this, then you could sleep, and then in I lay in the between you and the seat and used you as my pillow, then I could sleep too? Good idea?" She asked pointing to places.

"Alright then, sleep here we come." He said placing the pillow up and doing as Kagome said. As soon as he was in position Kagome pushed back up her shades and pulled up the hood on the sweater. She got into her comfy spot and found herself with her arm resting on his chest by her face. Her eyes immediately fell closed and she drifted off to sleep-a peaceful sleep.

"How long till we get there Miroku?" Inuyasha asked as he closed his eyes himself. The sounds of Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory filled the car and then Miroku replied to his question.

"5 or 6 hours around. Sleep tight buddy." He almost cackled to him. He ignored his comment and let the sleep that was threatening to take over do its job.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It was a fine and peaceful sleep-until hours later when she started to move. It was just a little nagging at first, but then she started to squirm and it was really pissing him off. She had just elbowed him hard in the ribs and he knew that it wasn't going to stop until he put a stop to it. His arms lunged out blindly and grabbed onto her, pulling her down to her spot.

"Quit fucking moving, I'm trying to sleep." He said irritably.

"Well then sorry mister, maybe you should just wake up then!" She muttered as she pulled herself up off of him. He cracked an eye open to see a messy haired Kagome scratching her head.

"Yeah, we're about to stop for lunch." Miroku said as he turned up the music that was playing.

"It's more like breakfast bozo!" Sango said from her spot up front.

"Nuh uh!" He said in a boyish tone.

"Uh huh!" She replied back. Inuyasha and Kagome could feel where this was going.

"How about it's brunch? Okay?" Kagome said loudly.

"Fair enough." Sango said crossing her arms over her chest and looking away from her boyfriend. Inuyasha shook his head at the two and then pulled himself into a sitting position.

"So where we heading to?" He asked looking at the small shops and houses lining the streets. Miroku pulled into a small parking lot in front of an 80's diner and looked back at him.

"Here, the one place that never failed to disappoint me as a little boy and the usual pit stop. C'mon, let's grab some grub." He said exiting the car and pulling back his seat. Kagome crawled out and then Inuyasha followed. The sun was bright and Inuyasha wished that he had Kagome's sunglasses at the moment. Her hair was still messy, but it looked pretty good considering the state she was in. Sango had her hair tied up in a high ponytail just to get it out of the way. Miroku was still wearing his clothes-thankfully.

The three of them followed Miroku still a little tired from getting up so early. They of course didn't down a few pots of coffee-straight without milk. He practically bounced into the diner and was met by a yell of surprise.

"Miroku, is that you?" A woman asked dressed in a waitress outfit that was pretty nifty looking. It was a skirt, not too short but not too long and a tank top for the hot summer days. Both were blue and pink accented with black and white checkered lines and some chains. Her earrings were translucent pink raindrop shapes and went perfectly with the whole outfit.

"Yeah, it's me Mae!" He called walking over to the woman and giving her a hug. "Miss me?"

"Of course I missed you silly! If your father had told us you were coming out I would've prepared something for you and your friends!" She said motioning to the three waiting behind him.

"Nah, it's okay. Just a pit stop before we get to the great old outdoors. Just like last year." He said stepping back.

"Kagome, Sango. Come here!" She said with open arms. The two practically ran over and both hugged her like she was a grandmother or mother to them both. They had huge grins on when they pulled away. "Who's this handsome young man over here and where on earth is the other one, Kouga?" She asked.

"Kouga quit the band, but this one here is our replacement. Inuyasha this is Mae one of my parents friends, Mae this is Inuyasha our new drummer." He introduced the two. Mae looked him over and then nodded before turning back to the counter.

"Well then go grab your booth and I'll get you guys some menu's. Any maybe you girls can hop on the counter again and do what you do best." She said winking at them. Sango and Kagome started to laugh as they both slid into the side of the booth. Miroku stopped and pouted as he saw that Kagome had taken the seat next to her.

"Awe, Kagome! Can't I sit next to Sango! You always do!" He whined like a four-year old as he looked at her with a look that told her that he was desperate.

"I so do not! You are always sitting next to her mister!" Kagome pointed a finger at her. He got on his knees and grabbed Kagome's hand.

"Puh-lease Kags! I really wanna sit next to Sango. I love you?" He said giving her puppy eyes. The secret weapon that he always used on her-and which always worked. She tried to say no but the eyes were too much. She finally rolled her eyes and then stood up, making Miroku fall on his behind. She slid into the booth next to Inuyasha and watched as Miroku practically leapt in beside Sango and wrapped his arms around her. She shoved him off playfully and pretended that she was upset with him. Kagome held back her laughter and looked down at the table where pictures were placed under the glass.

It was officially their table because the only pictures that were under the glass were of them. Miroku as a young boy, Sango and Kagome after they befriended the pervert and Kouga. She sighed as she looked down at their most recent picture. It was of them three except Kouga was in it. He was holding Kagome's bridal style as Miroku was being thrown to the ground from Sango. Miroku wasn't quite a blur, but was made out perfectly as he looked like he was floating in the air. She laughed at the memory and then looked up as Mae came back with menus.

"Here you go darlings, now for drinks? Four chocolate milkshakes?" She asked looking at each of them. Inuyasha nodded as the rest of them did. She smiled at him before walking back to the counter. Inuyasha watched her until she disappeared into the kitchen to get orders for the customers. He glanced down at Kagome and saw that she was looking at the pictures beyond the glass. He looked down and saw the indeed there were many pictures-of them. He looked back up at Miroku and Sango only to see them talking quietly to each other.

He looked down at his menu and then tried to figure out what he wanted. That's when he saw Kagome looking at him.

"What?" He asked as it got really annoying.

"Whatcha getting?" She asked scooting closer so she could look at his menu. He looked down at the space between the two to see not that much, and that made his heart start to beat faster.

"Not sure, you got a suggestion?" He asked cocking an eyebrow. She nodded and then pulled his menu down so she could point at a few things that were really good. He tried to pay attention but it was hard as she was leaning against him just to read his menu. His heartbeat started to quicken slightly and he couldn't figure out why. His eyes glazed over and his brain fogged up. He sniffed out of habit and suddenly found a scent that made him feel young once again.

"Inuyasha?" A voice drifted through his ears and he was forced back out of his dream-like state. "Inuyasha are you even listening to me?" Kagome snapped at him poking him in the chest. He focused on an irritated Kagome in front of him and then finally realized his wrong.

"Nope sorry. Mind repeating yourself?" He asked with a smirk. She rolled her eyes and then read out two meals that sounded delicious. Burger and fries and a cheeseburger and fries-the usual for anyone going out to eat. [I could use a burger right about now…] He read them over and immediately decided on the cheeseburger. He put down him menu and then looked up to see Mae standing there while placing their drinks down on the table. Kagome grabbed hers quickly and started to sip hungrily.

"Oh my god Mae it's still as yummy as ever!" She cried ecstatically. The older woman smiled at the youngster as she sipped like a happy little schoolgirl. Inuyasha grabbed his drink as he snickered at her actions.

"Thank you dear, now what'll it be?" She asked pulling out a pen and paper.

"Those two love birds'll have cheeseburger meal, and I'll have the same…Yash?" Kagome said looking over at him.

"I'll have the same." He grunted in between swallows of the chocolately goodness. Within seconds he was done his shake and was licking the straw off so that he didn't waste any of it. Kagome was watching him with amusement flicking through her eyes. He looked over and saw her looking at him.

"What?" He asked dropping his straw and looking back at her.

"Oh nothing, just watching you lick your straw." She said adding a tiny chuckle at the end.

"Do you have a problem with me and my licking of the straw?" He asked her.

"No not at all, it's just cute." He stared at her as if she had just told him that his feet smell.

"What?"

"I said it's-" She leaned close so that their noses were touching. "-Cute." She finished before sitting back down. He smiled at her sudden closeness and then turned back to the table across from him where Sango and Miroku were looking at the two of them.

"What? Does everybody find me that attractive to continue to look at me and marvel in awe at my handsome good looks?" He asked with a smirk of arrogance. Kagome snorted from beside him and then Miroku and Sango started to snicker.

"Yeah right playboy. Keep on dreaming." Kagome said as Mae brought back their food and placed it before the hungry teens.
