Inuyasha High

Chapter 24: Nervous?

As Kagome walked into biology she saw Miroku was leaning against her and Sango's table.

"What's he doing here?" Kagome wondered.

She observed the both of them laughing together and looking at each other in the eyes.

"Huh? Could they be...dating?"

Sango looked over to wave at Kagome and gestured her over to her table.

"Hey Kagome you're here early!" Sango pointed out.

Kagome nodded as Miroku passed by her to leave,
"I'll be seeing you Kagome!"

Kagome slowly sat in her seat as Sango stared out into space with a smile on her face.

Kagome giggled lightly,
"I know why you're smiling."

"Huh? Me?"

"You and Miroku must be dating right?" Kagome said calmly as she took her notebook out.

"What?! No no no! As if I would-" Sango paused as Kagome held her hand up.

"I think you would," Kagome grinned.

Sango's cheeks had turned bright pink as she told Kagome to drop it.

Next thing they knew it was third block and everyone was together at their table.

Inuyasha yawned as he stretched his arms out.

"Tired much?" Miroku questioned.

"He was practically asleep in last period," Kagome sighed.

"Hey it ain't my fault that class is such a bore," Inuyasha blamed.

"Anyhow! I can't wait to hang out with you after school today Kagome!" Sango said excited.

"Yea me too!" Kagome grinned.

"What're you guys going to do anyway?" Inuyasha asked, being nosy.

"Not really sure yet, but it'll be fun no matter what we do," Kagome assured.

"What a great attitude," Miroku said.

"Can I just say I'm not excited for the play next week?" Inuyasha told them.

"Really? I'm super excited!" Sango clasped her hands together.

"I still don't understand why I wasn't the prince. After all I do have every single quality. I'm charming, handsome, and a wonderful kisser," Miroku reasoned.

"Keh! It's not like I picked the role ya know!" Inuyasha sassed.

"Speaking of kiss..."
Sango paused briefly and looked over at Kagome.

"Have you guys practiced?" Sango slightly stared, trying not to laugh.

"H-huh?!" Kagome blushed.

"W-what are you talking about?!" Inuyasha slammed his hand on the desk.

"Ah yes. The big kiss is next Friday, I hope you're ready Inuyasha," Miroku noticed.
Kagome and Inuyasha had an embarrassed flush to their cheeks.

"Kiss?! What're you going on about...!?" Inuyasha paused as he made a glance towards Kagome.

She had a red tint to her cheeks too. He looked deep into her eyes, and so did she, only to quickly turn their faces away from each other. There was an awkward tension in the air as Miroku's hand made it's way towards Sango's bottom. He stroked it ligtly, but quickly felt the stinging slap of Sango.

"Nice try, pervert!" Sango said irritated.

It was fourth block. People were practicing their lines and testing the equipment. Mr. Jakotsu was picking out students to help paint the scenery and cut out props.

"Miroku, Inuyasha, Kanna, and Kagura, could you please help with painting the scenes!" the teacher asked if them.

Miroku and the rest of them picked up a brush and started to paint. Miroku and Inuyasha worked on the grass, and Kagura and Kanna did the cobblestone of the house. Miroku started some small talk with Inuyasha.

"Honestly Inuyasha, what are you going to do about the kiss on Friday?"

"Hell if I know," Inuyasha said continuing to painting.

"Do you even like her?" Miroku asked.

"I mean I guess..." Inuyasha blushed a little.

"I see. So you will be able to give her a peck on the lips?" Miroku questioned.

"As a friend doofus!" Inuyasha said in an angry tone, but somehow kept a pink color to his cheek.

"Mr. Inuyasha!" Mr. Jakotsu tapped his fingers angrily at him.

Inuyasha was puzzled, until he turned around to see he had made a long green streak across the whole canvas. Miroku sighed as he slapped his hand on his face, shaking his head.

"Why do I feel this way?" Inuyasha asked himself.

After school they all met up outside.

"You ready Kagome?" Sango asked.

"Of course!" Kagome responded.

The girl waved goodbye to Miroku and Inuyasha as they were ready to begin their girls day! They headed to the outlets and browsed around in the store for awhile, laughing, smiling, and enjoying themselves.

"Oh Sango look at this beautiful skirt!" Kagome said moving it back and forth to watch it sway.

"Kagome..." Sango trailed off.

"Yes?" Kagome looked up at her.

"Are you nervous to kiss Inuyasha next Friday?" she asked.

Kagome had a light pink tone to her cheeks,
"It's part of the script so...I have to do it regardless."

Sango browsed through the multicolored clothing,
"I didn't ask that, I asked if you were nervous."

"Yea...a little."

"At least you'll be kissing a guy you like," Sango said.

"Wait wait wait! Like?!" Kagome questioned her friend.

"Yes. Don't you like him?" she asked her.

Kagome paused,
"Only as a good friend of course."

"Suit yourself. Now what do ya think about this top on me?" Sango said holding a pink top with a flowery pattern.

"It looks pretty on you!" Kagome complimented.

"Thanks!" Sango said.

As Sango went through more clothes on the racks, Kagome gripped the skirt she was holding.

"My heart is beating so hard in my chest..."
