Chapter One: The Beginning
I sat silently, a slight anxious smile on my face. The rain poured outside the diner window, as it trickled down the window and pooled at the bottom of the frame before overflowing down to the soaked, dirty pavement. The bell above the door sung out and I looked up only to see an old lady entering the diner. I turned back to the window and lost myself in the rain. Lightening crashed and thunder boomed out as if, in warning of the coming events. The bell chirped again but I ignored it. Thunder boomed loudly and startled me back to reality. Then the lightening crashed again and the chair across from me was pulled back.
"Kagome?" I looked up. A guy, no, a man stood there leaned on the back of the chair. His eyes were as blue as the sky, hair , the colour of pure gold. His skin was tanned but white. He smiled, showing off a set of perfect white teeth. His arms were lightly muscled, which showed in the snug white t-shirt he wore under his coat. If I'd been standing, I would have fallen over. He stood there allowing me to scan his body, before politely requesting to take a seat. I nodded with a smile.
"Yes hello, I'm Kagome. You must be Houjou?" I said quietly.
"Yes that's me. How do you do?" He asked simply.
"Very well, and yourself?" I asked.
"Absoloutly perfect today thank you." He stated.
Maybe that is when I should have been afraid, perhaps not. I'll never know for sure, so all I can do is guess. But then I'd spend the rest of my life guessing, and worrying. And who wants to spend their life wondering if a decision was foolish, or simply uninformed...
