You're all that I Need
Chapter One

Tapping his foot, Sesshoumaru leaned against the brick wall of the High school and allowed his eyes to trail over the passing students. It was the final days of his junior year here. The small school's bell had just rung, setting them loose for the day, but he wasn't ready to leave just yet. His mind was preoccupied with the milling students sitting on the short stone wall just in front of the school.

"No Bobby!" She shook her head, laughing. He was at it again. No matter how often she refused him, he was stubborn and came right back.

"Aw, come on Kagome!" Bobby pleaded, scruffy blonde hair blowing across his face in the breeze, "Please? Just give me a chance." Squaring his broad shoulders, he threw an arm around her, "Please?"

"Bobby Ray!" She laughed, sapphire hues glittering, "No means no!" she shrugged him off. He really was a sweet guy, but just not her type. Sure he was the star athlete of every sport their tiny school could offer, but there just wasn't a brain in his head.

There was a flash of silver and a mocking laugh, "Keh, why would she go out with you –" Inuyasha jumped onto the wall squeezed himself between Kagome and Bobby, "When someone like me is around?" He flashed a white-toothed grin.

"In your dreams Inuyasha," she rolled her eyes and hopped off the wall, jumping onto the grass. Inuyasha followed close behind.

"In my dreams? What's wrong with me?" He jumped in front of her, unsettling Kagome with his speed.

"Would you stop –" A cold chill ran up her spine and Kagome spun around.

"Little brother," Sesshoumaru stepped up to them.

Biting her lip, Kagome squinted at him. There'd always been something… off… about both brothers. Their silver hair and golden eyes for one thing. Of course, in their school strange wasn't uncommon. Sometimes, Kagome felt like she was the different one. There were quite a few people with the same… aura about them as Inuyasha and his brother. But there was something particularly special about Inuyasha's brother…

Inuyasha growled, his eyes darkening "Just a minute Sesshoumaru." Turning back to Kagome, he forced a smile, "Later."

"Yeah, later…" Sesshoumaru's strange golden eyes were locked on her own. It's like she knew him, yet didn't. What was wrong with her?

:----:

Forcing open the old window of her upstairs bedroom, Kagome pulled back the curtains and let the warm breeze in. With a gentle sigh, she dropped her books on the desk beside her computer and sat down on her bed. She laid back on the soft quilt, closing her eyes. She relaxed, and let herself drift.

Golden eyes flashed through her mind.

What's wrong with me? She scolded herself, it's Friday night, and I have better things to think about than Sesshoumaru's creepy stare. Although he does have great hair, and his body is so well toned without being muscle bound…

The ring of an IM from her computer jerked her from her thoughts. With a groan, she sat up, running a hand through her ebony hair. The wooden floor creaked slightly under her steps as she flopped into her old computer chair.

Stargirl: Kagome, are you there?

Kagome: Yeah. What's up Rin?

Stargirl: Not much. I can't believe school's almost out… I'm counting the days!

Kagome: It doesn't feel like it should be out at all. Our first year of high school, already gone.

Stargirl: It sounds so depressing when you put it that way. – Sighs – Anyway, was Bobby all over you again this afternoon?

Kagome: Yeah, he was…again. Then that Inuyasha guy jumped in.

Stargirl: I saw that. Bobby sure got all jealous looking.

Kagome: Hey Rin, what do you know about Inuyasha's brother?

Stargirl: Sesshoumaru? Hm… not much. He's Inuyasha's older half-brother. They don't get along well, I can tell you that much. He and Inuyasha both used to live at the Children's home.

Kagome: Used to?

Stargirl: I think they're living on their own now. They just up and left about a year or two ago. There's something strange about both of them, isn't there?

Kagome: Yes. Very strange.

Stargirl: There's something about Hiten and Monten, those Senior brothers.

Kagome: I've seen them before. Weird. I wonder what's wrong with our little school.

Stargirl: A lot?

Kagome: lol.

Stargirl: I have to go – sighs – Library is closing.

Kagome: Alright. Talk to ya later.

Stargirl: Later. And good luck with Inuyasha and Bobby!

Kagome: – rolls eyes – Later.

:----:

"Inuyasha, if you wish for me to take you home, I strongly suggest you come to my truck after school." Sesshoumaru turned the key, bringing the old faded blue two door truck to life.

"Well excuse me if I actually try to blend in, unlike you." Inuyasha shot him a heated glare.

"You call that 'blending in'?" He arched his eyebrows.

"Keh, and what would you know?" He turned to the window, slouching down into the torn seat.

"A lot more than you know little brother." Sesshoumaru narrowed golden hues, shaking his head slightly. His hatred for the half-breed had simmered down long ago, but he was just so dense.

"In any of the schools we've ever been to, have you ever had a girlfriend? Or a friend at all for that matter?" He wondered if his words had affected Sesshoumaru at all. His emotionless mask lay still, seemingly unaffected.

"Hn." He clicked his claws on the steering wheel.

"That's what I thought." Inuyasha turned back to window, the cab of the truck remained silent for a moment.

"Does the human wench return your feelings towards her?"

"Her name's Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Does Kagome?"

Inuyasha slouched farther into his seat. "You're talkative today Sesshoumaru." He mumbled.

Grinding his teeth, he turned to Inuyasha, waiting for his answer. His patience for the half-breed was wearing thin.

"No. She hasn't, alright?" He picked at the seat cushion, his claws tearing through another seem.

"This vehicle will not last us much longer at the way you're going through it. It was difficult enough for us to acquire this one."

"Keh."


This story will probably be quite long. Seeing as love doesn't just bloom out of thin air, or in a single chapter. Thanks Rachael for all your help! I don't know as much about InuYasha as I should to be writing these, so I used your brain. I know it was a short chapter, but please read and review. Tips on where to go next, and how to improve are veryhelpful!
