Forever Loved: Broken Family

Chapter Twenty

It didn't take long for the day to pass. The only thing that was starting to tick Kagome off was all the whispering and talking about her like she didn't hear. This is one of the things she didn't miss about school at all.

Kagome glared at them as she heard them whisper. She didn't want to even be here. This was all Isabella Swan's fault. Now her life at school was going to be hell cause she slapped the little twit!

Sighing she hurried to her locker, she just wanted to get out of here. All of the students were ticking her off, if she didn't get out of there soon she was going to blow.

'Deep breaths Kagome, Deep breaths' She thought to herself as she flickered through her combination and opened her locker. She needs to bring home her math homework and then Spanish was the only other thing she needed to do, and she was going to the Cullen-Hale home to do that.

"Kagome!" She just about jumped out of her skin when she heard her name called from a few feet away from her. Turning she saw the pixy-like girl, Alice, from lunch.

She skipped over to her just as she closed her locker, "Yes?" She asked, taking a deep breath to calm herself.

"I heard you are coming over!" Alice smiled cheerfully. She clapped her hands together and was almost jumping in place.

"Yes, I am meeting Rose and Jasper upfront." Kagome laughed, watching her jump in place. It was cute.

"Come on then!" Alice chirped, glancing behind her. Kagome followed her where she was looking and saw a pissed-off Bella headed their way.

"Alright... let's hurry. I don't want to run into...you know." Kagome said, running a hand through her hair. Seeing Alice nod they hurried out of the building

"Jasper! Rose!" Alice called and waved as they walked out of the school. They're waiting by a Jeep was Jasper, Rose, and Emmett. They waved back and started to get into the car, when Alice pointed behind them.

"Kagome!" The angry voice of Bella was calling for them. Kagome's eyes widened, she didn't think she was that close.

"Come on!" Alice ushered her to the car, and they both jumped in and left not a second too soon to hear the frustrated cry of Bella.

Kagome blinked before laughing, "Well, that went well!" This caused the rest of the car to break out into laughter.

"You do know I am going to have to come back for my own car...right?" Kagome asked, as she saw them pull off the road, all Kagome could think was, 'damn they drive fast!'

"Of course. While we are doing the project, someone will go and pick it up." Rose reassured her, "Just leave the keys out and someone will get it."

Nodding Kagome plunked her keys out of her pocket and handed them over to Emmett, but before she did so she narrowed her eyes, "If there is one scratch on my baby, you are going to have a painful death."

Emmett's eyes widened, before a grin formed on his face, "Will do, Kitten!"

"Kitten?" Kagome asked when the Jeep came to a stop. Her eyes narrowed as she heard stifled laughter as they exited the vehicle.

Emmett's booming laughter bounced off the trees as he made his way toward inside the house, "Yes, Kitten."

Kagome growled, and was about to say something when a clear musical voice broke through the laughter, "Welcome home!"

Kagome blinked and turned around to where the voice came from. This was the woman she ran into at the store, Esme Cullen. The mother.

"Hello again." Kagome gave a small smile, she shifted awkwardly.

The woman smiled at Kagome, as she took another step forward, "Welcome to our home, it is nice to meet you again...Kagome correct?"

"Yes...Thank You for having me." Kagome looked around the room and saw that Emmett was sitting on the couch with the other already.

"Kagome came over to do a project with Jasper and me," Rose smirked, glancing at Esme. It was like they all knew something she didn't. Like they were keeping something hidden.

"That's nice," Esme said, as she gestured for her to come and sit down in the family room with everyone. Sitting down Kagome looked at Rose who had her smirk still in place.

"What project are you three doing?" Esme asked curiously, she seemed like she was really interested. Most mothers weren't that interested in kids' homework, or that she remembered.

Grinning Rose answered, "We have to translate two books into Spanish." Jasper who was beside her gave a cough, making Kagome look at him weirdly.

Jasper gave her a small smirk and flashed an innocent look at his 'mother'. "Thanks to Rose, she made the teacher mad by speaking English in Spanish class and now we have to do two books while everyone else only has to do one." By the end of the sentence, you could practically hear the 'woe is me' tone dripping from his every word.

Rose shot him an evil look while Kagome hid her small giggle behind her hand as Esme gave Rose a scolding look. "Now Rose that's not very nice. I expect you to pick up the slack since it's your fault you have to do two books."

Rose sneered lightly at Jasper but nodded her head a small but sexy pout on her lips. "Yeah, yeah."

Emmett laughed as he wrapped an arm around Rose's slim waist and pulled her closer to him making her huff lightly. "Aw its okay hun I can help out if you promise not to tell."

Jasper snorted lightly. "Aw, no thank ya, Emmett. We'd never get anything done if you helped." He chuckled lightly as Emmett huffed at him but did nothing more as Esme gave them the look. The 'you two better stop it right now look.'

Kagome laughed lightly, loving how well they all interacted, and wished her family could have been like them. She quickly shook that dark thought off and pulled her backpack off of her back and set in it her lap. "Well I think we should get started now, each book is about two hundred plus pages..."

Jasper nodded and scooted closer to her pulling out his own notebook and pencil. Rose let out a sad sigh and pulled the two books from her backpack and groaned. "This is going to suck."

Esme laughed as all three teens nodded sadly and began to work on their project Emmett hanging over the couch to bug them. "Well while you three do that I'll call Edward and tell him to go get your car. Emmett can go with..."

Kagome blinked looking up from the Spanish to English dictionary in her hands a small blush on her face and nodded. "Emmett has them already." Esme turned to Emmett who had the keys in his hands with a small smile.

"I already volunteered. Edward can drop me off and I will drive it back." He told the older woman who gave a nod in reply.

"I will give you your keys back when I get back." He then gave a grin as he walked away from her and out the door.

Kagome nodded lightly not knowing what to say. "Er...okay?" With that, she went back to her dictionary. Today has definitely been a weird day.
