*Never judge a book by its cover*


Kagome turned to look at Sesshomaru to find him staring at her with raised eyebrows. She mentally groaned. ÒI really hate mondays.Ó

Sesshomaru grinned and walked past her to the podium and proceeded to shuffle through some papers. He gestured for him to come over and showed her a stack of music sheets.

ÒThese are the songs they decided to do for the graduation concert in 6 months.Ó He explained to her, Ò In that time we have to teach them how to play the music, choose the leads, coreograph, and design costumes and flyers.Ó

ÒWow,Ó Kagome exclaimed, ÒYou really have this all planned out.Ó

ÒTalking is one thing doing is another,Ó A male voice said fromthe door way.

Kagome turned to see a tall male student in a brown button up over a black muscle shirt, and dark washed jeans on leaning agaisnt the door frame.

ÒWhos the chick,Ó He asked nodding to Kagome.

ÒYour new teacher,Ó Sesshomaru said without looking up. Ò Kagome this is Koga, a senior.Ó

ÒPleasure to meet you,Ó Koga said taking one of her hands and kissing it lightly.

ÒBack off Koga, shes part of the staff,Ó Sesshomaru told him still not looking up from his papers.

Koga just rolled his eyes and went to stand on the top step in the corner. Kagome sat down and watched as the class slowly filed in until the steps were filled. She smiled as she remanised about her high school days.

ÒAlright class, settle down,Ó Sesshomaru said and the class instantly quieted. Ò As you all see we have an adition to our class,Ó He said jerking his head in KagomeÕs direction, ÒSheÕs your new teacher,Ó

ÒAre you gonna stop teaching us Tashio,Ó A girl with a high ponytail and hazel eyes asked.

ÒNo, Sango iÕll still be teaching this class with her,Ó some of the students sighed in relief.

ÒCan she play or sing,Ó A student asked from the back.

Sesshomaru shrugged and looked at her as if expecting her to burst into song and dance.

ÒThen what good is she to us,Ó Another student asked.

Ò Can you prove yourself to them?Ó Sesshomaru asked Kagome arching an eyebrow.

Kagome huffed and made her way over to the piano. She sat down and shot a glare at Sesshomaru before starting to play.

*ahh-hah-hoowoo
ahh-hah-oo-hoowoo*

Some of the students gasped as she opened the song.

Pray God you can cope
I stand outside
This woman's work
This woman's world
Oh it's hard on the man
Now his part is over
Now starts the craft of the father*

Kagome kept her eyes trained on SesshomaruÕs amazed golden eyes.

*I know you've got a little life in you left
I know you've got a lotta strength left
I know you've got a little life in you left
I know you've got a lotta strength left*

Sesshomaru got over the first shock of hearing her actually being able to sing. And smirked while raising both eyebrows.


I should be cryin' but I just can't let it show
I should be hopin' but I can't stop thinkin'
All the things we should've said that we never said
And all the things we should've done that we never did
All the things we should've given, but I didn't
Oh darlin', make it go
Make it go away

She started playing the opening chords again.

Give me these moments
Give them back to me
Give me your little kiss
Give me your...

Some of the students starting singing softly in the back ground backing her up.

(I know you've got a little life in you left)
Give me your hand baby
(I know you've got a lotta strength)
Give me that pretty hand
(I know you've got a little life in you left)
Oh surely you understand
(I know you've got a lotta strength left)
My lovechild
(I know you've got a little life in you left)
Whatever you need
(I know you've got a lotta strength left)
Give me your hand
(I know you've got a little life in you left)
Give me your hand
(I know you've got a lotta strength left)

Kagome smiled as she heard all of the students start to back her up.

I should be cryin' but I just can't let it go
I should be hopin' but I can't stop thinkin' and thinkin' and thinkin'
All the things we should've said that we never said
And all the things we should've done that we never did
All the things that you wanted from me
All the things that you needed from me
All the things we should've given, but I didn't
Oh darlin', make it go
Just make it go away.

The class started clapping and Sesshomaru looked around in amazement. Kagome blushed and got up from the piano bench.

ÒWell,Ó Sesshomaru said clearing his throat. ÒThat shows that you canÕt judge a book by itÕs cover.Ó
