Summary: Kagome was just a quiet, clumsy, dense girl that was moving to Saikui from Udo after her father died. She never believed in TRUE love until she met an arrogant, ignorant, hard-core, self-fish, funny, and handsome guy named Inuyasha. But all Inuyasha is, is trouble and rebel.

CHAPTER ONE

Kagome felt the bus skid a stop and she quickly gave a glance out her window. They had finally arrived in Saikui. She quickly stood and grabbed her belongings from under her seat and above her where her luggage sat on the metal shelves.

She pulled her ragged brown leather jacket closer to her to give more body warmth. Winter was coming close. A light nudge came behind her back. She quickly gathered her belongings and stuffed herself in the aisle where people where also moving out.

When she walked out, she constantly blew off her hair out of her face because of the soft blowing wind. It was a good thing she tied her long black hair in a high ponytail that day. She sighed and dragged her suitcase as it strolled right behind her. She felt eyes on her as she quietly traveled to the nearest bus to go to her mother's.

A loud whistle came behind her. She looked back with her curious cerulean blue eyes. It was a fat, chubby bald man with only two hair strings were on top of his head. He wore a shiny, clean leather jacket and he smiled a long smile. He looked almost like a snake. Kagome quickly turned back and proceeded her way with a confused look on her face.

A loud honk came into her thoughts as she looked up to see the city bus stop right in front of her. People in business suits were already boarding. She quickly joined. She sat at the seventh seat on the left of the bus and sighed. She simply stared out her window and watched the scenery passed by.

She looked at the plain fashioned white numbers in front of her. It was an apartment; a BIG apartment. Kagome quietly dug out something from her pocket from her jeans.

"One, one, three, three…" She quietly read as she focused on the scribbled paper in her hands, then to the door.

Kagome stretched out her tightened hands and confidently pulled her hand out and pressed the dull white door bell. She patiently waited. The door opened and out showed a young buy with raven black hair at about the age of 10. He wore a baggy blue 'Yu-Gi-Oh!' T-shirt and blue shorts. A question mark was printed on his forehead.

"Who are you?" He asked. Kagome gave a bright smile.

"Well, I'm-!" Before she even finished her sentence, the boy ran off yelling, "Mom! The woman from the pet shop is back again!"

Kagome blinked. She looked at her clothes and sniffed her sleeve. She quickly stopped when an older young woman came into her view. She happily smiled at Kagome.

"Oh! Kagome-chan!" She gave a welcoming wave to her. "Come in! Come in!" Kagome smiled softly and dragged her bags behind her. The older woman helped pick up Kagome's suitcase.

"You'll be sharing a room with Sango, and she isn't back from school yet, is that alright dear?" Kagome simply nodded at her mother's words.

It's been four years since she left from Saikui. Kagome looked around. Everything was quite fancy. Plain square and comfy couches, a flat T.V screen against the wall in front of the couches, a large window space for a great view, a fine and neat kitchen, and a rich looking apartment. Kagome mentally gave a whistle.

After they had placed Kagome's belongings' in the room, her mother sat next to Kagome on white couch with two cups of herbal tea in her hands. Her mother softly smiled at her first daughter.

"Tea?" Ms. Toki elegantly held up the fancy tea cup towards Kagome. Kagome carefully took it and rested it on her lap.

"How was Aunt Suki's wedding in Udo?" Her mother asked. Kagome rubbed her hands around the cup she held.

"It was great." Kagome simply replied. Ms. Toki nodded and smiled.

"Kikyo called." Kagome perked up at the sound of Kikyo's name.

"Eri?" Kagome stuttered in happiness. Her mother nodded and took a sip of her tea.

"She said that as soon as you come here, go to Wacdonald's…" Her mother glanced at Kagome. "You do remember where Wacdonald's was, right?"

Kagome happily nodded and placed her tea cup on the glass table in front of her. She stood and bowed respectfully at her mother. Her mother gave another warming smile and nodded as dismiss. With that, Kagome quickly left.

"Kagome!"

"Eri!"

The two girls hugged. Eri pulled Kagome back by the shoulders to examine her.

"Oh my, Kagome! You've grown so much prettier!" She calmly said.

Kagome took a short glance at herself, then to Eri. Eri had short straight black hair to her shoulders, and straight bangs, unlike Kagome. Eri was much skinnier, and had the shiniest brown eyes Kagome had ever seen.

Kagome had long black hair to her ribs and pinker cheeks with cerulean blue eyes. Her shabby clothes looked like as if she was a poor person living in the streets.

"Heh, heh, heh…" Kagome softly gave a smile as they sat across from each other. Eri talked about the past few years Kagome had missed.

"…Yeah, and so, Ayumi and Tasuki are married now…" Eri said while motioning with her hands. Kagome giggled and nodded. Silence rolled by. Eri gave a conceited look at Kagome.

"Ne, Kagome?" She asked. Kagome sipped her Pepsi and stared at the plain clean table. Eri leaned back in her seat and crossed her arms.

"Did you know that I have… a boyfriend?" Kagome almost choked on her drink and looked at Eri, surprised.

"A boyfriend?!" Kagome happily smiled. "Who is he?" Eri gave a sly smile and fluttered her eyes.

"Akitoki Houjo?" Kagome said in surprise. Houjo smiled and shook Kagome's hand.

"Hey Higurashi, long time no see…" Houjo smiled and slid his arms around Eri's waist. Houjo had short light brown hair with brown eyes. They were all out side of Wacdonald's and it was getting darker. Kagome forced herself a smile.

"Yeah, I guess…" Kagome gave a hollow laugh. Eri rolled her eyes of annoyance. Houjo smiled and winked.

"Well, do you want a ride? It is getting dark..." He asked politely. Right at that moment, the city bus stopped behind Kagome. Kagome quickly shook her head.

"Oh no… I want to take the bus tonight. You know, so I can watch the scenery…" Kagome laughed. Houjo shrugged and waved.

"Well, good bye! See you later!" With that said by Houjo, Kagome quickly got on the bus without saying anything.

As soon as she got on, the bus moved. She sat in the same seventh seat on the left by the window. She numbly placed her hood of feathered rims of her jacket over her head.

"…I like you too, Houjo…" Kagome quietly said as she silently cried.

"Are you serious that I can have her?!" An orange hair junior said as he followed his taller friend. The taller black hair friend sighed and stepped into the city bus.

"Yes Shippo… You can have her… I don't date minors…" He said tiredly.

He stood by a seat and held the hand hangers. A few girly squeals were sounded behind him. He dimly rolled his eyes.

He had long black thick hair to his waist with two black locks before his ears and clear dangerous and tired violet eyes. He still wore his black school uniform. He lazily placed his free hand in his black pocket.

"No take backs, right? Because I hate it when you do that… Right?" Shippo pressured, holding his black school shoe up to Inuyasha's face. Inuyasha's eye brow twitched with annoyance and anger.

"If you stick up that ugly black shoe at me…" Inuyasha threatened. Shippo smacked Inuyasha's shoulder with the shoe.

"I'm serious!" Shippo whined. Inuyasha angrily took the shoe and tossed it over his shoulder without looking.

"Owie!" A painful muffed cry came out. Inuyasha tiredly turned around to face a weeping beauty.

Romance of Their Own

…Everything was going to be hell over here… Kagome knew it too right when she was going to move. Her body shook with painful sobs. She sniffed a bit and rubbed her nose. All she could feel was pain. All pain that landed on her fore head.

"Owie!" She cried. She nursed her head as she glared at the shiny black shoe that sat on her lap. A black shadow was in front of her.

"Stop crying." A masculine voice called above her. She looked up to see a man with long black hair. She sniffed and pulled her hood down.

"Go away…" She croaked. Inuyasha sat in the seat in front of her with his arm hung lazily to her side. He clicked his tongue a bit before eying her again.

"What's the name?" He asked again. Kagome sniffed and quickly wiped her wet face.

"Higurashi Kagome…" She replied calmly. He scoffed.

"Not yours! His name!" Inuyasha forced himself not to yell. Kagome sniffed and stared at the shoe that sat on her lap.

"Akitoki Houjo…" She paused for a moment, and then she stared back up at him.

"Who are you to say that I got dumped?" Kagome said in anger and glared at him. Inuyasha rolled his eyes at her.

"Do you go to Hae-Won high school?" He questioned. Kagome quickly shook her head. Inuyasha then narrowed his eyes.

"…Then to Tae-Sung high school?" Kagome also shook her head. Inuyasha simply sighed and flicked her forehead with his finger.

"Stop crying. You look too ugly like that…" Fire blared in Kagome as she was about to yell back at him. The bus stopped and she focused her eyes outside, then they became widened.

"S-st-stop the bus!" She yelled at the bus driver.

She quickly ran pass Inuyasha and Shippo and set foot on ground. She sighed and forgot all about the incident on the bus. She walked away in question when she repeatedly heard, "Hey! My shoe! Give me back my shoe!". She shrugged and placed her hood over her head, without knowing that Shippo's black shoe was in her hands.

"Sister! Sister! Sister!" Sango happily jumped around Kagome on her twin bed. Kagome just gave an open smile and hug her white pillow. Sango finally landed next to Kagome and hugged her. Sango pulled back and smiled.

"How long has it been? Two? Three years?" Sango asked happily shook Kagome's shoulders'.

"Four years, Sango…" Kagome said to her step-sister that was two years younger than her. She listened as Sango began talking about the past four years.

Sango had long loose beautiful black hair to her waist with shimmering chocolate brown eyes. She still wore her black school uniform. It was a black skirt, a white blouse, and a little black jacket that went over the tang top. A long red tie was right below the collar of the white tang top, and black stockings that went up to her knees.

She was an absolute tomboy and hung out with guys. Even though she was a tomboy, she still placed magenta eye liner over her eyes and pink lip-gloss.

Sango suddenly stopped talking and looked into Kagome's tired eyes'. Sango quickly held Kagome's face and stared deeply in her now blue gray eyes.

"You've… You've been crying…" Sango quietly said more to herself than to Kagome. Kagome hastily faced down to prevent her younger half sister to get even more worried. Sango lift Kagome's head back up.

"You were crying!" Sango quickly punched her hand into her palm in a tomboy way. She started at Kagome heatedly.

"Who made you cry?! Kagome! I'll go beat them up!"

Sango turned around and got off the bed and reached towards her cell phone that was on the drawer between Kagome's bed and her bed. Kagome gave a small smile as she watched Sango press some numbers into her cell phone with a frustrated look on her face. Kagome reached to Sango's hand and pulled out the cell phone out of her grasp.

"No, Sango-chan… It's okay…" Kagome nervously smiled at Sango's angry face. Sango then pointed to Kagome.

"So! Somebody DID make you cry, right?!" Sango reached for her phone again but Kagome yanked it away from her grasp. Kagome calmly shook her head.

"I don't want any troubles when it is my first day here…" She smiled at Sango. "I want to be happy here with you, okay?" Sango calmed down and sighed. She nodded, and then narrowed her eyes back at Kagome.

"But if anybody…" Sango threatened. Kagome nervously waved her hands in front of her and laughed.

"Sure, Sango, sure…" Kagome replied.

Sango held out her hand for her phone. Kagome gave it back to her and watched as Sango tiredly walked towards her own bed. Kagome avoided eye contact when Sango was changing into her blue pajamas. She then lazily climbed on and snored. Kagome smiled and looked out the window that she was sleeping next to. Lonely, as it is…

She glanced around the room. There were two twin beds that were separated by a brown wooden drawer that had a lamp and a phone on it. Kagome's clothes drawer was set in front of her bed. The door was right in front of Sango's bed. Her drawer was on the right of her bed. The small black T.V that sat on a wooden table was in front of their beds and in between them. Kagome smiled and leaned over to turn off the lamp switch.

She pulled over the covers and was slowly drowning into the blankets of sleep. She slowly went to sleep and was too late to hear, "…Inuyasha! It's me, Sango! Someone made my sister cry… Let's go kick their butts…!"
