Mind over Matter

Summary: Kagome has been keeping a diary to keep herself sane. Here are her thoughts. Enough said.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or its characters. Nuff said.

Inuyasha's stomach growled loudly. I'm fed up. I don't care if Kagome's at the spring, I'm getting some of those 'chips' things. He wandered over to her backpack, opened it and rummaged through it's contents, throwing clothes, pencils, paper, first aid kits, candy, text books, 'chips', and a small green and white stripped book. GREEN AND WHITE STRIPPED BOOK?

Picking up the chips, he opened up to the first page…

Diary,

Hmm… that seems a bit too formal, I think I will call you Suki. Yes Suki will work. It was the name of my first cat. I used to be able to tell her anything. Today is the third anniversary of my meeting Inuyasha, and also my birthday. God, three years, wow, our little group has grown so much. At first it was only me and Inuyasha then before I knew it Shippo came along. Then Miroku came and shortly after that came Sango.

Well… happy birthday to me. I don't think Inuyasha and Miroku know it's my birthday, and I really don't think Inuyasha would care. Sango knows, but it doesn't really matter. I just wish I could see EVERYONE on my birthday for once. Each year has been a let down. My 15th birthday I fell down a well into another era. My 16th birthday I lied my way back home and this year I am in the feudal era again but this time I just got done getting youkai gore off of my entire body, just another day in my life.

Going back to the subject of Inuyasha I don't think he could care less. He has his precious clay doll to care about. I don't even think he realizes how much it annoys me to hear about Kikyo, not to mention having to live with my past self. Oh! The others are coming. I'd better get going.

Kagome

Inuyasha stared for a minute and then reread the page. The day we first met was her birthday… He sat there a moment and then turned the page.

Suki,

Well…I am bored here at home. Funny, I am never bored in the feudal era. School was a total nut house. Hojo was glad to see me, what's new. A guy I don't like, likes me and the guy I, Dare I say it, Love (?) has no feeling for me. Ah well. Maybe I should give Hojo a try. I mean he is cute and nice, a lot of girls think we are perfect for each other. I don't know. He asked me out and I am home for a few more days… I think I will. Hojo I would LOVE to go out with you.

Kagome

Inuyasha's blood was boiling. HOJO! He flipped through the 'diary' or 'Suki' or whatever it is, looking for any trace of Hojo. Mid way through the book he found it.

Suki,

Hojo is so sweet. We have been secretly going out for a few months and I kind of feel bad about it. My feelings for Inuyasha are getting in my way! I SHOULDN'T CARE! HE NEVER CARED EVERY TIME HE SNUCK OFF WITH KIKYO. 'Blah, Blah, Kikyo this, Blah, Blah, Kikyo that' I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!

Kagome

SHE DOES HAVE FEELINGS FOR THIS, HOJO GUY! He slammed the book shut and threw it to the side. He grabbed the bag of chips and began eating on full speed.

Kagome walked in the clearing where she and Inuyasha had set up camp for the night. Sango and Miroku were going to the town to gather some supplies with Shippo and would be gone all night.

"WAH! Oof!" she fell face first and had the wind knocked out of her. She had tripped. What is my Trig. Book doing here? She got to her feet and dusted her clothes off, Picking up her book she noticed more of her things, 2 pencils, 4 pens, paper, 3 first aid kits, 1 bag of candy for Shippo, 3 text books (writing, history, science), 2 bags of chips... TWO bags? I was sure there were three. INUYASHA! Inuyasha! Her face got pale. WHERE IS IT? She was frantic.

"KAGOME HOW COULD YOU!"
