A/N: Hey! It's a new story! YAY! :P Hope that this one is ok... and not too bad.

Disclamer: I DO not own Inuyasha... or Kagome, or Kikyo (thank goodness!), etc.


Prologue:

I blinked uncomprehendingly.

"Huh?" I questioned softly.

"Didn't you hear me?" He asked.

When I tilted my head to the side, he snorted.

"Apparently not."

"Huh?" I repeated.

Worry ate at my stomach, and something warned me that… well… whatever he told me would not be good.

I didn't want to believe it.

"News flash. I… its… we can't be together." He hurriedly told me.

"Wh.. Inu…" I felt my eyes brimming with tears.

I knew that he would end up hurting me. I knew that our relationship wasn't one to be envied.

Two lonely souls… a rich boy, and a rich girl. Both misunderstood. Both holding onto hope.

So… WHY did I let it happen?

Why did I let him do this to me? Did I really believe he loved me?

I looked into his eyes through my tears, to see discomfort residing there… patience… and sadness also hidden in their depths.

Did I ever think this relationship would work out?

I thought back to our first meeting.

The temperamental youth with the angry eyes and frown.

Me… the coincidental girl in a second hand weapons shop, wanting to buy a vintage bow.

A chance meeting. A coincidence.

Not fate.

No. I never believed it would work.

His arms holding me as I fell.

I felt secure- like all my dreams would come true – that he would do anything for me… that he would make everything right. I was too… dependant. Too sure that we were alike… that we wanted the same things… that we loved each other.

But that's not how love works… does it?

Love holds people together. Brings out the likeness… attracts the opposites.

I should never have believed in the power of love.

I should never have fell for that golden eyed… monster.

I should never have gone to that stupid boarding school.

But no matter –

In the morning… when the sun comes up… I'll be gone.
