Hello everyone, this is my second Inuyasha fic. I do not own Inuyasha and his friends (I wish: :sighs:) Anyhow this story is loosely based on my favorite book called Addicted by Zane.

I'm not trying to copy the story. I love this story so much and I admire the author greatly so I wanted her story to be known to those who haven't read the book.

I'm just a novelist-in-training admiring her favorite author so I hope you enjoy the story and I promise next one I make will be something of my own until then enjoy and let me know what you think.

Also I like to call this Secret Affairs and Hidden Scars Part II. (I redid the story but don't worry for those who read it already I just made some minor adjusments to the story)

I hope you all enjoy.


Hate First Sight?

Katsuko smiled as she pulled up to the large house before her. She got out the car and gasped.

"Kagome hurry and get out the car look at this house." She ushered for her daughter to come. The young girl did as her mother told her and looked at the house. It was a nice medium size house. Her father passed away not too long ago and her mother decided to move in with her late husband's father. Since the house was too big for him by himself.

Katsuko opened the back door of the car and picked her up infant son.

The older man opened the door and smiled at them.

"Katsuko, Kagome it's so great to see you." He smiled. Katsuko walked over to him giving him a hug and a kiss. He then took his grandson into his arms.

"Oh wow Souta you got so big since I last seen you." He smiled and kissed his grandson's temple. "Kagome, come give Jii-Chan a hug." He held out one arm. Kagome walked over to him and hugged her grandfather. He kissed her temple and smiled. "All your stuff arrived yesterday so all you have to do is just unpack it."

"Oh excellent, I'm beat, I can't wait to rest." Katsuko sighed.

A silver Lamborghini pulled up to the house across the street and a beautiful woman got out the car. She looked at across and gasped. She then ran over.

"Hi Jii-Chan, you're having company?" She smiled.

"Hi Setsumi-Chan, my daughter-in-law and my grandchildren are moving in with me." He told her. She nodded her head and looked Katsuko. She removed her shades and held her hand out to Katsuko.

"Hello, I'm Setsumi, I live across the street with my two sons it's nice to meet you."

"Hi, I'm Katsuko it's a pleasure meeting you." She smiled shaking her hand. Setsumi then looked at Kagome who was leaning on her mother's car looking spaced out.

"Is she your daughter?" Setsumi asked. Katsuko nodded her head.

"Yes, that's Kagome and Tou-Chan is holding my son Souta he just turned eight months."

"Aw, they're beautiful. How old is Kagome-Chan?"

"Eight." Katsuko replied.

"Really? I have an eight-year-old son as well. He's actually in the car. Inuyasha!!!" She called out. "Come over here hun!!!" She flagged down the young boy in the passenger seat of the car.

Shortly a boy emerged from the car and slowly walked over to her. She gently pinched his cheeks and smiled.

"He's so cute isn't he? My other son is sixteen he's just as cute as well. So when Kagome starts school they can go together." She smiled.

"Oh that's great. Isn't it Kagome, you now know someone." Katsuko smiled while looking at her daughter who blushed and looked away.

"Do you need any help unpacking anything, I have nothing to do. When my other son comes home, I'll ask him to help as well. The more help the faster you'll get situated." Setsumi offered while walking over to Katsuko.

"Oh, Arigatou Setsumi-San."

"Just call me Setsumi, let's go. Inuyasha stay here with Kagome and keep her company honey." She said to him and they went inside. Kagome slowly looked at Inuyasha as he looked at her. Amber met bluish-gray.

He was pretty short for a boy, his silky jet-black mane fell down his back, his amber color eyes held a slight sadness to them and his tan skin molded over a thin body.

Kagome slowly looked away from him as he took in her appearance.

Unlike him she was tall for a girl, her unruly onyx hair stopped at her shoulders, her bluish-gray eyes were hard to read yet they seemed unsettled and her thin body was covered by a creamy complexion.

It was silent between them and they both looked back at each other. Inuyasha began blushing and glared at her.

"Nani?!" He snapped. She looked a bit taken back and shook her head.

"Bestu Ni." She looked down.

"Don't think that just because you're tall you can bully me. Even though I'm short I can kick someone's ass if I have to girl or not." Her eyes widened in shock. "But you're so tall if I was to fight you people might think you're a guy anyway." He shrugged. She bit her bottom lip and growled.

"You're jealous just because you're short!!" She yelled at him. He looked at her in shocked. "You're small like a girl!!!"

"So, I'll grow!" He snapped.

"No time soon chibi!!" She snapped back and they both glared at each other.

"BUSU!! DEBU!!" He yelled at her. Sadness over came her face but was quickly replaced with angry. She growled and tackled him down to the ground. They both began fighting with all their might.

A red convertible pulled up behind the silver Lamborghini and three teenagers got out the car.

"I can't believe that girl she's crazy as all fuck." Teen boy with a baldhead exclaimed.

"Well what the fuck do you expect? Girls nowadays are so fucking stupid there's nothing you can do but just fuck them and leave them behind." A blonde teen boy stated as he shrugged. The bald boy stopped walking and spotted the two kids fighting on the front lawn. "Hey Sesshoumaru ain't that your kid brother?" He asked. Sesshoumaru turned around and sighed when he saw Inuyasha.

"And he's a fighting a girl on top of that." The blonde kid stated.

"He's getting his ass handed to him." They both burst out laughing. Sesshoumaru sighed deeply and walked over to them.

"Oi! Break it up you two!!" He yelled and pulled the kids apart. Both of them were covered with dirt, bruises, and cuts. He began to wonder how long have they been fighting. Inuyasha looked at his brother as he glared down at him. "What did you to her?!!" He snapped.

"Nothing!" Inuyasha exclaimed. "She hit me first." He pointed at her. Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome and saw tears running down her face. Inuyasha froze when he saw the tears as well.

"He made fun of my height, the kids in my old school made fun of me because I was tall and the girls called me ugly and fat just like he did." She then dropped to her knees and began sobbing.

Sesshoumaru sighed and grabbed Inuyasha by the back of the neck. He then pushed his head down.

"Apologize."

"Wari." Inuyasha mumbled.

"Say it politer." Sesshoumaru growled.

"Gomen-Nasi." He restated.

Setsumi and Katsuko walked outside and paused when they saw the kids.

"Sesshoumaru what are you doing?" Setsumi asked and Katsuko ran over to Kagome.

"Kagome, are you ok what's wrong? Why are you so dirty?" She asked as she wiped her daughter's endless tears.

"When I came they were both fighting and like usual it was his fault." He said while pointing at Inuyasha.

"Oh Inuyasha…" Setsumi sighed deeply. Inuyasha stared at the ground and didn't say anything.

"I'm taking him back to the house." Sesshoumaru stated and pulled Inuyasha along by the back of his shirt.

"Gomen-Nasi, Kagome-Chan." Setsumi said feeling bad. Kagome wiped her eyes and ran inside the house. "Katsuko, Gomen."

"It's fine Setsumi they're children after all." Katsuko smiled softly. "Kagome always been sensitive about her height, numerous of kids made fun of her and called her names. Inuyasha just probably stirred old memories."

"I'm worried about Inuyasha he fights with a lot of the children. You see Inuyasha isn't my real son." Setsumi began and Katsuko looked at her. "He's my son's half brother and Inuyasha's mother died last year so I figured instead of him going to a foster home he can come and live with me and Sesshoumaru. I adore Inuyasha so much but he has a barrier up and when I took him to a child psychologist I was told something probably happened to him when he was living with his mother that's why he's quick to withdraw and quick to throw a punch." She stated and looked down.

"What about the father?" Katsuko asked. Setsumi scoffed and shook her head.

"What father? That man makes children and then goes MIA." She rolled her eyes.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to bring up such a touchy topic." Katsuko said looking down. Setsumi giggled.

"Don't worry about it now we're neighbors so we gotta look out for each other right?" She smiled as she gave Katsuko a pat on the back. She smiled and nodded.

"Right?" She could tell Setsumi was a good person and she knew they were going to be friends.


The next day Kagome walked out the house and she spotted Inuyasha and another little boy playing on the driveway. She sighed deeply and walked on the lawn. She then laid in the grass and stared at the sky. She hated being herself. Everyone made fun of her, the girls always picked on her, and the boys always called her Godzilla. She bit her bottom lip trying not to cry. She closed her eyes and decided to let the tears trickle down her face. She knew she was going to be alone forever.

"Who's that?" Inuyasha's friend asked looking at Kagome. Inuyasha looked over at her and looked down at the toy cars. He sighed deeply.

She did look pretty sad yesterday. Both Sesshoumaru and Setsumi scolded him badly. He moaned, he felt bad about what happened but he didn't want to admit it. He cleared his throat and stood up. His friend looked at him.

"Where are you going Inuyasha?" He ignored his friend and ran into the house. He went straight to his room and opened the closet door. He threw all the shoeboxes out the closet but couldn't find it. He then went under the bed and pulled out a gray and red shoebox. He opened it and smiled when he found what he was looking for. He grabbed it and ran outside.

He looked both ways before crossing the street. Kagome opened her eyes when she felt the sun being blocked from her face. She saw Inuyasha standing over here. She quickly sat down getting ready to attack as he knelt down next to her. He looked away and held out his hand.

"This reminded me of the color of your eyes so you can have it. It's a friendship stone." He mumbled.

Kagome stared at it and it did match the color of her eyes. She slowly took the stone from his hand and smiled softly.

"Arigatou." She whispered. He looked at her and saw her smiling happily. His cheeks turned pink and he looked away.

"Keh." He mumbled. "If you want you can play with Miroku and me. He just moved here three weeks ago so you can be friends with us and if anyone makes fun of you I'll kick their ass." He mumbled. She smiled and nodded her head.

Inuyasha stood up and she stood up after him. They both crossed the street and Miroku stood up.

"Whoa, you're tall." He smiled and she looked down. Inuyasha punched him in the head. "Itai!!" Miroku glared at him.

"Don't talk about her height, so what if she's tall, she's our friend."

"Hai, I'm Miroku." He smiled and held his hand out.

"Kagome." She placed her hand in his. He shook her hand.

"Let's play." They all sat on the driveway and began playing with the cars.

Katsuko looked out the door and spotted Kagome happily playing with Miroku and Inuyasha. She smiled and walked back in the house.

"Inuyasha and Kagome are definitely going to have an interesting relationship when they get older." She thought to herself.

"That's not how you play with the cars baka!!!" Inuyasha yelled at Kagome.

"I can play with them anyway I want to baka!!!" Kagome yelled back.

"No you can't baka!!"

"Yes I can baka!!" Amber clashed with bluish-gray and they both looked away from each other with a huff.

Miroku rubbed his head in confusion.

"I thought we were friends."
