Kagome stormed out of her house in a purple velour sweatsuit, hood up, covering half her eyes.

It was the perfect temperature on an autumn afternoon. Not too hot, not too cold.

She didn't know where she was going because she didn't know the neighborhood too well, but she had to get away.

When her eyes landed on a park right across from her house, she considered it convenient. 'Who would come looking for me here?' She thought as she walked through the grass.

She scoffed at the loud kids playing in the piles of leaves and swinging on the creaky old tire swing.

She turned up her iPod and walked through the park, looking for the most desolate spot she could find.

After searching for a good 10 minutes, she came across a tree behind the restrooms. It was a dead end, far from the walkway, benches and other people in the park.

She sat down in the grass as the leaves crinkled and crunched underneath her butt.

She let out a relieved sigh and pulled the joint out of her sweater pocket.

She felt around in her other pocket for her lighter.

"Oh man, I forgot my lighter! I can't believe this!"

Kagome leaned her head back against the tree and groaned. 'I have to go back home and get it.' She assumed, when a lighter fell out the tree and into her lap.

She snatched her earbuds out and looked up in the tree where she saw a pair of legs dangling from one of the limbs.

She lit her joint and took a puff, instantly feeling relaxed as the THC entered her body.

"Thank you, whoever you are." She said as she raised her head up.

"You're not from around here, are you?" The male voice asked.

"Not really." Kagome said as she blew out smoke. "I just moved in to the house right across the street from the park a few days ago."

"Cool."

"Ssooo...what're ya doing up there?" She asked curiously in an attempt to make conversation.

"The same thing you're doing." He said in his cool, nonchalant voice.

"You wanna match? I got a really strong strain of weed from my old neighborhood."

"What I'm smoking might knock you out."

Kagome grinned as she placed her joint back in her mouth. "That sounds like my kind of high."

He jumped out of the tree and landed in front of Kagome.

Just like her, his black hood covered his eyes, leaving some of his silver hair hanging out the sides.

He extended his hand to pass her a dutch-rolled blunt and Kagome noticed his claws.

Once they traded, Kagome nervously reached over and slightly lifted his hood to see his amber eyes.

"The hell are you doing?" He asked as he pulled back from her.

"I knew it. You're a demon!" She said as she took a pull of his blunt, causing her to cough. "Whoa this is strong!" She exclaimed as her eyes crossed.

"Keh. I told you," he said as he took a pull of hers, enjoying the smooth feeling of it. "and I'm only half demon."

"Oh. Sorry about that."

He shrugged as they passed around the weed again.

"So what's your name?" She asked.

"Inuyasha."

"What a great name! I'm Kagome."

"Cool."

"Yeah." She said with a nervous chuckle. She took another pull of the joint, wondering what else to say. She wasn't very good with people, but Inuyasha seemed like a nice guy.

"How old are you?" He asked.

"15. How old are you?"

He blew out the smoke. "17."

"Where do you go to school?"

"Shikon High."

"I start there tomorrow. What's it like?"

"Prison. Uniforms, a bunch of spoiled, rude and judgmental meatheads, Boring classes…you get the point."

"That's what my old school was like." She said as she took a puff. "I guess tomorrow won't be a good day."

"I don't even know what a good day is." He confessed as he relit the blunt that had gone out.

"I know that feeling. I'm staying with a foster family. My dad died a year ago and my brother and I got sent to a group home because my mom got addicted to drugs. We were separated recently."

"Both my parents are dead. I live with my piece of shit brother who treats me like I'm nothing."

"That's terrible! I'm so sorry." She said compassionately.

"Lets just smoke and forget about everything." He suggested.

Kagome took his lighter, relit her joint and took a pull before they passed them again.

"Your weed makes me feel good. I feel a little numb." She confessed with a giggle as she slumped against the tree.

"You hungry?"

"Uh huh." She said with a nod.

"I'll be back then. Just hang here." He told her as he got up and tossed his blunt in her lap.

Kagome watched him walk away, and then looked down at her lap.

She decided to only finish her joint. As she smoked the rest of it, she put her headphones back in and blasted her music.

Kagome had to admit this was the best she had felt in a long time. 'But it's probably just the weed.'


Inuyasha returned with food in hand and saw Kagome texting on her phone.

Kagome noticed his feet and took out her headphones.

"Who's that, your boyfriend?" he asked as he sat down.

Kagome busted out laughing. "That was hilarious. You should do stand up."

Inuyasha shook his head and ignored the thought as he sat next to her.

"I got some sushi. Hope you like spicy shrimp."

"Its my favorite!"

"Cool. Mine too."

They sat across from one another and ate silently.

"I've never had a boyfriend." She said, feeling a bit embarrassed. "I've never even been on a date."

"I haven't had a girlfriend since I was 13. I don't think dating is for me."

"Same here. I feel so out of place in this world."

"Yeah? You don't know what it truly feels like to be out of place unless you're half demon. I'm just not one or the other."

"So which of your parents was a demon?"

"My father. He was really powerful and wealthy…at least, that's what my mother said. I never met him."

"He must've been a magnificent demon. What kind of demon was he?"

Inuyasha pulled back his hood and revealed his ears. "Take a guess."

Kagome stared at his ears in astonishment and utter adoration. "Cute! Can I touch them?" She cooed.

"Hell no. They're my ears not toys." He said sternly.

"Okay." She pouted. "I'm sorry."

"Don't worry about it. So you wanna roll up another blunt or should I do it?"

"Actually, I didn't finish this one. I thought you'd want me to wait until you came back." She said, holding up the blunt. "And besides…I don't know how to roll cigars. Only paper."

"Nah. Stuff like that kind of...ages out if y'know what I mean. If you don't smoke it right away, it gets weak. But don't worry. I'll show you how."

Kagome set the rest of her food to the side and drank some of her soda. She knew she would get hungry again, following the effects of the weed.

"So is this your first time with the new family right? Do you like them?" He asked as he broke the dutch in half.

"Ugh. No. The woman is super strict and rude and her son is a creep. So is her husband. They make me feel so uncomfortable."

He handed her the outer leaf.

"What's this for?"

"Steam it." He explained as he broke up the weed on his sushi container.

"What?"

Inuyasha took the leaf, placed it in her palm and closed her hand. "Hold your hand to your mouth and blow some air on it. It keeps it from drying up."

"Oh." She began applying steam to the leaf.

"But, yeah. You'll be alright."

"How can you be so certain?" She asked skeptically.

"I'm not. But you know me now. If anyone fucks with you, I'll kill em." He said as he sealed the blunt, then put his hand out for the leaf.

"You'd do that for me? Why?" Kagome asked as she placed it back in his palm.

"I think you're an okay girl. I usually like being alone but smoking with you is...I dunno. Not horrible."

"Thanks?"

He ran the lighter across the blunt to dry it."Whatever. This doesn't make us best friends or anything. But we can toke together anytime. I'm sure you don't know any dealers out here anyway."

"You're right about that. But I never thought we were best friends! I was just minding my business when you chucked a lighter at me."

"Well excuse me for lending you a hand."

Kagome smiled. "Thank you."

He tossed her a newly rolled blunt. "Shut up and smoke."

Kagome lit the blunt and took a few pulls before passing it over.

"I said smoke."

"A-are you sure?" She asked as she pulled her hand back reluctantly.

He waved his hand at her and opened a bag of Cheetos.

"Give me some!" She called out to him as she took another puff.

"I got you a bag." He said as he threw it at her head.

"Nice throw."

He shrugged and put out his hand for the blunt.

As he took a pull, he stared at her. Kagome began to wipe her cheeks, thinking there were crumbs on her face.

"Take off your hood. I can't really tell what you look like." He said as he passed it back.

Kagome pulled her hood back and her silky raven black hair bounced onto her shoulders.

She took a pull and looked up at him. The way he stared made her uneasy.

Inuyasha thought she was very cute. He didn't understand why she was hiding her face.

"Um. I have to get home before it gets dark."

"Want me to walk you?"

"Oh. N-no. I don't think that's a good idea."

"Whatever."

"See you tomorrow at school?"

"Guess so."

Kagome grabbed her food and stood up. "Thank you for the food and especially the weed. It made my day."

"Yeah today was cool. See ya."


Kagome rushed back home and unlocked the door.

Her curly, auburn haired foster mother Izumi Osaka approached her immediately.

"Where were you?" She questioned with her hands on her hips.

"At the park with a friend."

"Well. I guess that's alright then."

Kagome began to rush up the steps.

"Hey Kagome?" Her foster mother called out to her, stopping her in her tracks. "The only reason I'm so hard on you is because of your ordeal. Poor, fatherless girls like you try to find love in the worst places."

Kagome growled angrily and ran upstairs to her room and shut the door.

She sprawled out on her bed and let her body relax. The high she was experiencing was soothing, and the silence made it even better.

But her euphoric feeling quickly disappeared when her foster brother, Ken barged in.

Ken was a slim, brown haired guy in his mid 20's. He constantly wore a smug look and had a septum piercing dangling from his nose. Unfortunately for Kagome, he was home from graduate school and hadn't left her alone since her first night in the house.

He sat on her bed next to her. Kagome hated that. She hardly knew him yet he was always in her personal space.

"I'm taking a nap." She mumbled with her face in the pillow.

"Why don't you come get in my bed? It's much more comfortable." He said in a creepy, flirtatious voice as he rubbed her lower back.

Kagome rolled over on the bed away from him.

"It's not like we're related!" He said indignantly. "Why don't you wanna do some...things?"

"Go away!" She shouted.

He got up slowly and headed towards her door. "I'm not giving up on you."

Kagome crawled into a corner space between her bed and the window, wishing she had more weed.

She waited a few hours until everyone went to their bedrooms for the night and snuck out her window to go back to the park.

It was after 11. It was dark and desolate in that park. She appreciated the silence and lack of people.

The sound of the leaves crunching beneath her feet was almost deafening, and her hoodie wasn't enough for the late night breeze, so she walked quickly to keep herself warm.

She finally reached that tree again and sat down with her iPod. She turned the volume up to maximum and relaxed. It was nice to get away and forget.

Kagome was startled when a blunt and lighter fell into her lap.

She laughed and looked up. "My hero!" She shouted dramatically.

Inuyasha jumped out of the tree and took off his hood. "Snuck out?"

"I had to."

"What happened?"

She shook her head. "I just can't stand them. They continually remind me that I'm not family at all."

"But you aren't family."

Kagome leered at him as she lit the blunt. "So why are you still here?"

"I spend most of my time here. I just go home to go to sleep. Or I'll sleep in my car."

"It's that bad at home for you?"

"It's…boring."

She took a pull and passed it to him.

"I rolled another already. I had a feeling you'd be back."

"I'm so grateful. Can I really have this one?"

He nodded. "I want you to go home after this. Don't make things worse for yourself."

"What, are you my dad?"

"No, are you stupid? Do you want to make things worse for yourself? You should be thanking me for giving a shit in the first place."

Kagome let out a defeated, smoke-filled sigh. "Fine."

After finishing her blunt, Inuyasha walked her home.

"I'll sneak you back in." He said as he jumped onto her windowsill.

Kagome snuck into the window and sat on her bed.

Without even one word, he left.

"Such a weirdo." She said to herself as she crawled into bed and set her alarm.
