Crazy Matchmakers
I wasn't sure of the exact time when we returned to our dormitory, but I was pretty sure neither of us would be able to get up tomorrow morning in time to attend our first day of class on time. With a last, sideway glance in Shuichi's direction, I allowed my tired eyelids to drift close in what I hoped to be a peaceful slumber. But one thought kept running through my mind, even in my half conscious state: Why did Inuyasha and Kouga have to attend school here?
It felt like only seconds later when a hand was trying to shake me awake. I swatted the annoying hand away from my shoulder and pulled my covers over my head, hoping whoever it was would leave me alone so I could sleep properly. "Kagome, please get up." Shuichi's voice rang out in my subconscious, what is he doing in my dream? "The first day of school starts in less than half an hour."
"What school?" I mumbled, trying to vanish beneath my thick blankets. After registering the full impact of his words into my malfunctioning brain, I bolted upright and quickly shoved Shuichi out of the room. I had to keep my language in check as I amazingly dressed in less then thirty seconds. I rushed through my morning necessities and skipped breakfast (much to Shuichi's displeasure) before grabbing the dorm keys and hurrying down the hall at a quick pace.
"Kids these days," I heard the desk lady mumble with an exasperated tone as we raced past her. "When we were young, we did that kind of thing at night after we get married." Baka, we weren't doing that! If I wasn't going to be late, I'm going to give that oaf a piece of my mind! Why is her mind and thoughts always in the gutter? We just overslept okay? Well, at least I over slept! We stopped for a split second to catch our breath when we entered the school building.
I gasped out a hurried "bye" to Shuichi before running down the opposite end of the hall from Shuichi to my homeroom. I skidded to an abrupt stop in front of the classroom and quickly jerked the door open. Please, don't give me detention for being late! I blinked when I saw the state of my homeroom and I was positive one of my veins popped in irritation. The homeroom teacher was snoozing loudly in a dark corner while the class was in total chaos. One thought angrily echoed in my mind: I got up and ran here for nothing!
I walked over to a spare desk and slumped into the chair. I resisted the urge to bang my head repeatedly over the wooden desk. If brain cells weren't limited, I would really do it, but alas…
"Hi!" an overly cheerful voice chirped, piercing my eardrums. I lazily lifted my head and found myself looking into a pair of orange-tinted eyes. The jolly girl in front of me extended one of her hands towards me, which I gingerly took into my own with a light shake. "My name is Mariko, are you friendless? If so, you can consider joining me and Krystal!" Mariko suggested.
"I'll do that." I replied, as a black-haired teenage girl made her way towards us.
"I'm Krystal, nice to meet you." the girl introduced herself. "And I see you have already met my assistant Mariko." Mariko is Krystal's assistant?
"Hey, do you have a boyfriend?" Mariko suddenly asked in a serious tone, looking directly into my eyes.
"I'm not bisexual! I don't bend that way." I blurted, turning off what I guessed as Mariko's offer. Mariko gave me a confused look as Krystal giggled hysterically. Krystal laid a palm on my shoulder in a comforting manner and shook her head, but I couldn't make out any of the words that left her lips.
"Mariko wasn't asking you out. She's just asking if you have a boyfriend. We're just curious." Krystal explained and my mouth formed a small 'o'. Now I am officially an idiot. I felt an embarrassed blush creep up my cheeks as I shook my head 'no' in response to their question.
"Perfect!" Krystal exclaimed happily, which earned an enthusiastic nod from Mariko. I quickly backed away from the two girls I had just met as they excitedly whispered between themselves. I think I had just signed my death warrant…maybe I should have just lied and said I had a boyfriend. Well, technically, I never did break up with Hojo…and then there's my annoying, prideful, arrogant, good-for-nothing fiancé.
I found myself wasting the rest of the homeroom period answering questions about myself. So far, I have been asked for my favorite color, hobby, food, show, movie, band, artist, and etcetera." I watched with barely concealed unease as Mariko quickly took notes on everything.
"Where's your favorite habitat?" Mariko suddenly asked me. I raised an eyebrow and gave her a confused look. Krystal glared at Mariko and told me to ignore that unimportant question. I really wanted to ask, how is any of the other questions important? I had to restrain myself from cheering out loud when the bell rang, signaling the end of homeroom period.
I smiled when the door open to reveal my roommate, Shuichi. Finally, a sane person! I quickly adorned my backpack as Shuichi took my books from my hand. "Thanks." I whispered to Shuichi, who smiled in response.
"It's no problem, we both have English next." Shuichi replied. It was then that I noticed that the whole room was eerily quiet. The girls had their eyes glued to Shuichi and I smirked. Before I could take a single step towards the door with Shuichi, two pairs of hand shot out and dragged me backwards.
"I thought you said you didn't have a boyfriend!" Krystal hissed.
"He's not my boyfriend!" I replied, causing the female population to turn in my direction. Maybe I should have kept silent, because the next second, Shuichi was swarmed by the girls.
"Then it's perfect!" Krystal stated.
"What's perfect?" I asked. "I prefer Shuichi alive and breathing, thank you."
"Not that!" Krystal replied. "Perfect as in you two make a perfect couple!" Krystal explained impatiently. "What do you think, Mari?"
"I think not." Mariko replied. "I think they'll make a very lousy couple. They're way too similar in personalities to make a good match. We need someone with the opposite personality to Kagome, so things can be balanced out. As they say, opposites attract."
"Not really!" Krystal argued. "If they have the same personality, it would work better, because they'll like the same things. They'll have more things to bond over!" I quietly crept away from my two classmates, hoping they wouldn't catch me. I nearly screamed in surprise when a hand grabbed me by the wrist. I sighed in relief when I noticed it was just Shuichi. Shuichi motioned towards the classroom door while the girls were fighting among themselves.
I could feel my heart pounding loudly as we ran all the way from homeroom to English class. Shuichi and I flashed a tired smile at each other when we stopped in front of the classroom door. We took in some deep breaths before entering the classroom. I didn't even try to stop the groan that erupted from within me when the teacher assigned me to sit next to Inuyasha. Why me of all the possible people?
"Why can't you sit somewhere else, bitch?" Inuyasha demanded.
"It's assigned seats, it's not like I want to sit next to an idiot as yourself." I replied hotly, causing Inuyasha to growl.
"I don't see why you even took this class." Inuyasha retorted. "It's not like you're going to pass."
"At least I'm not the one who failed the multiplication test back in first grade!" Kagome argued, smirking slightly. Inuyasha snapped the pencil he held in his hand in two before glaring at Kagome.
"It was only one damn test! You're the one who failed the spelling test!" Inuyasha gladly pointed out.
"I'm honored you remember my grade so clearly." Kagome replied. "I guess your little brain can contain some information after all."
"Listen here, wench." Inuyasha growled.
"My name is Kagome! KA-GO-ME!" Kagome emphasized, "IDIOT!"
"WELL MY NAME IS NOT IDIOT! IT'S INUYASHA INU-YASH-A!" Inuyasha yelled back with equal force. Shuichi silently motioned for Kagome to stop, since the whole class was being disrupted, but Kagome was too focused on Inuyasha to have noticed the warning.
"You are both seeing the principal for disrupting the class and both of you are getting detention everyday after school for the next week!" the English teacher growled. "You got that?" Kagome reluctantly nodded her head in understanding while at the same time, clenching her teeth together angrily. "Then move it."
Kagome and Inuyasha quickly stormed out of the English class and down towards the principal's office. "This is your entire damn fault!" Inuyasha accused Kagome.
"You're the one who started it!" Kagome pointed out. Inuyasha chose not to reply and quickened his pace. "I definitely left a bad impression." Kagome muttered to herself. "Mom's going to fry me…"
