Disclaimer: I do not own Inu. I wish that I could touch those cute puppy ears, or Shippo's cute lil' tail…Why must the world be so cruel!?!

 

The Ballet Class

`I'm in a chair. It's dark. Suddenly, a spotlight comes down on this stage. Kagome's up there, and she's smiling innocently. She's wearing a bright red spaghetti strap shirt, and a black miniskirt. She's also wearing fishnet stockings, and high heels. She begins to do the can-can. Her panties start to show…'

 

InuYasha sat up straight in bed, trying to shake the dream from his head. His ears twitched in annoyance, and his silver hair was knotted, and matted with sweat.

 

Note to self: Never eat a triple pepperoni and anchovy pizza before bed. It does things to ya.

 

InuYasha turned his body over so it faced the wall. He would get his new schedule tomorrow. Then he would get ready to ignore Kikyo to death.

 

He turned over again, trying to get comfortable. He decided to turn on his radio, and try to listen to some music.

 

“Who Let the Dogs Out” played from the speakers. InuYasha smirked.

 

Who let the dogs out
(woof, woof, woof, woof)
Who let the dogs out (woof, woof, woof, woof)
Who let the dogs out (woof, woof, woof, woof)

(woof, woof, woof, woof)

When the party was nice, the party was jumpin' (Hey, Yippie, Yi, Yo)
And everybody havin' a ball (Hah, ho, Yippie Yi Yo)
I tell the fellas "start the name callin'" (Yippie Yi Yo)
And the girls report to the call
The poor dog show down

InuYasha fell asleep once more, his dreams like the static on a TV.

“Kagome! Wait up!” Sango ran to catch up with Kagome. As she approached her friend, Kagome turned around, and Sango practically choked on the pop tart she was devouring. She looked at her friend, who was nervously twirling a piece of her black hair between her index finger and her thumb.

“What's wrong Sango? You look like you've seen a ghost. Is my outfit really that bad?”

“No, it's just that I've never seen you in anything other than jeans. Why on earth would you wear that to school? It's against the school dress code.” Kagome looked down at the ground.

“It was wash night last night, and right in the middle of a load, the washing machine caught on fire. Don't ask. So this was the only clean outfit I could find for now.” Kagome sighed in defeat.

InuYasha sat in second period, joking with Miroku. InuYasha was just laughing at something sarcastic Miroku had said, when suddenly Miroku gaped at something in the doorframe.

“Hey, Miroku, what's wrong?” InuYasha slowly turned, expecting to find the teacher giving them an evil death glare, or seeing someone run into the classroom nude, and instead saw Kagome. It was like she was directly from his dream. Her red spaghetti strap shirt clung to her in all the right places, and her black mini-skirt seemed to amplify the effect. Although she was wearing normal socks and shoes instead of the fishnet stockings and high heels, she looked exactly as he had dreamed her.

“Um, hi InuYasha, I didn't know that you were in this class.”

InuYasha could feel his heart beating. She was…gorgeous. He tried to think up a good description for her, and found himself at loss for words. He wondered if she could hear his heartbeat, which seemed to pound out a drum solo at the sight of her. A cough from Miroku brought him back to earth.

“Feh, I wasn't. The filthing principal changed my schedule so I have all my classes with Freaky-o Kikyo.”

“Oh. Well, at least we have three classes together then.” Kagome smiled and took a seat next to InuYasha, right across from Miroku.

InuYasha practically melted into his chair at her smile. How could a human be so cute? Hold on! Did I say that Kagome was CUTE!? What's wrong with me lately? One human girl is making me feel like this? I must be ill or something. That would explain the lurching of my stomach, my rapid heartbeat, and the clammy palms. But how come I only act like that around Kagome. Do I lo- What am I saying! No way could I love a wench like that.

But although InuYasha fought a brutal battle with his emotions on the inside, Kagome was totally oblivious to his behavior on the outside, and kept glancing over at him and sending him smiles. This only served to confuse InuYasha's conflicting emotions even more.

The class period wore on, and the teacher announced to the class that she would turn on the radio, while they all did individual reading in their textbooks. InuYasha was glad for a distraction from Kagome, and began reading immediately. The teacher flipped the switch on, and turned the volume down so it wouldn't distract the class from their work. Unfortunately, InuYasha's sharp ears picked up every note.

So she said what's the problem baby
What's the problem I don't know
Well maybe I'm in love (love)
Think about it every time
I think about it
Can't stop thinking 'bout it

How much longer will it take to cure this
Just to cure it cause I can't ignore it if it's love (love)
Makes me wanna turn around and face me but I don't know nothing 'bout love

Come on, come on
Turn a little faster
Come on, come on
The world will follow after
Come on, come on
Cause everybody's after love

InuYasha inwardly groaned. Of all the cool songs on the radio, they had to play this. Not that the song wasn't appropriate for his situation, but it kept reminding him that Kagome was sitting right next to him, her knee was two inches away from his, and her curves were tempting him. After all, he was male, and Kagome was one very curvy female. The fact that his demon half had a wonderful sense of smell, and could tell that she was currently in heat, did not make him feel any better.

This is worse then any beating I've ever gotten, especially since we're in SCHOOL!!! Man, this is torture. Why must she smell so nice? Why!?

Finally the bell rang, and InuYasha ran so quickly from the room that he appeared to be a flash of red and black. Kagome blinked in surprise, and wondered why InuYasha was in such a hurry.

“I didn't even get a chance to warn him about next period.”

InuYasha ran for the boy's bathroom, only resting when he was secure in one of the empty stalls. He tried to breath through his mouth, so he wouldn't inhale the smell of human waste, but also because he wanted to erase the lingering scent of Kagome.

Damn, I hate this dang schedule. What do I have next?

InuYasha gaped at the flimsy piece of paper, feeling the rest of his day crash down around him.

Oh no. Anything but that.

Kagome walked into the dance room, gracefully set her books down, and sat in front of the teacher's desk, like always.

I hope InuYasha won't be too pissed off about taking ballet class.
