Disclaimer: Hello, everyone! I have decided to create another story. Now, before the story begins, I must include the genres. Since you can only pick two for a story, I have decided to include all of them in the disclaimer. This story is a romantic drama and there might be a few hints of comedy as we go along. Now, with that said, let's begin the first chapter of the story. This will take place in Inuyasha's point of view but I might do regular point of view sometimes... Well, here's the story!


I don't know how I got here in the first place, but I don't care. I never have and I never will. Because that doesn't matter. All that matters to me is the girl I have loved for a the longest time. And know here I am, standing on new grounds, except now, she has finally realized how much she loves me. And she has accepted me into her love life.

Sorry for not introducing myself in the beginning. I'm Inuyasha. And this is my , our story now, but of what I went through before we were together. The story of how I struggled to win the love of my life over. Of how I struggled through all the pain I felt of learning about her crushes, about how much I had to fight the sensation of wanting to give her a kiss on the lips, about how much I wanted to kill any guy who wanted to use her and hurt her. Of all those struggles. But the worst one of all was laying down in my bed at night and regretting the day that just went by because I never told her how I felt about her.

I guess I should say how this all started out. I think it was about... Three years ago. I knew I had always loved her, it just took me some time to realize that I was inlove with her. Before I keep going, you go to understand that Kagome and I weren't as close as we are now. And, we both had that feisty attitude you gotta love about someone! But, that just ended up setting us even farther apart from each other, so that was the best thing that could have happened to us. Now that that's out of the way let's start with the first year of my realization.

That first year, Kagome and I got to know each other a little better than we were younger. Like I said before, we both had a feisty attitude, so we both said some things to each other that we didn't mean. And after we got on the same page, we were able to laugh at all the stupid things we said to each other in the past. And our friendship grew from there on. And we would talk about more than just our past. Sometimes, we would talk about homework(even though I didn't really want to). Sometimes, we would talk about boys and girls. We would talk about boys for Kagome and girls for me(of course). I ignored the girls in the school. They were either wanna be sluts, actual sluts, or just plain dumb. But I knew there was something different about Kagome when our friendship began to grow. I knew she wasn't like the others girls in the school. She was smart and barely cared about boys. The only words she would say to me when I pointed out certain boys was, "Oh, he's cute" or "Oh, he's nice". And, that was it. That would be the only thing she would say. And, I was glad she didn't say other words that would make the angry jealousy monster inside of me come out and attack the poor boys.

Then, the second year came. Kagome and I were still close friends. Kagome's opinion on guys still remained the same. But, their opinions changed. A little detail I forgot to mention about our first year was that it was our Freshman year in high school. The boys would rarely observe any of the Freshman girls in the school unless they were wearing a really tight top and very tight skinny jeans.

Another thing I loved about Kagome was that she detested that. In the fall and winter, she would wear one of those over sized sweaters that were bigger than your arms. The ones where you could hide your arms in. I always thought that it made her look cute. I told her that once and it made her blush. I didn't know it at first, but I was sure my cheeks were tinted with the slightest bit of pink. And in the spring and summer, she would wear nice, floral t-shirts. The type of floral t-shirts that wouldn't strangle you when you put them on. The ones that were loose enough to let you breath, but not too loose to when the wind would blow and you could see everything up her shirt...

So, like I was saying, boys were starting to notice Kagome. That was the thing that got me pissed. I didn't know why, I though it was because I had developed a crush on her, but I would soon learn the real reason for my actions. But, I was glad when me and her sat down to talk about who liked her. Because every time I did say which guy liked her and asked her if she liked him back, her face would twist into a disgusted one and she would shake her head. It was probably because she observe them over our Freshman year. How the older boys, the ones who were on the football teams and the ones who would smoke and drink and do drugs, would use the Freshman girls for fun and then later break their hearts. And with that funny face she would make and the movement of her head from left to right, it would calm me down. Because I knew that she would never fall for a boy's sick trick so they could get laid. I knew Kagome would always stay pure. But most of all, even though I wasn't completely sure of the feelings I felt, I still had a fighting chance to win her heart over.

And, finally, the third year came. The year I consider bittersweet. I had definitely developed a strong crush on Kagome. I started to notice how nice and sweet she was. How she had really changed since Freshman year. And when I mean by change, I mean physically. I know it is a bit perverted to be observing her in such manner, but hey, I am a guy after all and I can't help it if my eyes wander around my friend's beautiful face to her neck to her well-formed chest to her stomach, then her curves... Kami, must I keep going? Long story short, she was drop-dead gorgeous. And all it took was one mistake to change our relationship completely. I still grimace and sigh in shame and guilt whenever I remember. Kami, I'm such a moron...

I sat across from Kagome in our Study Hall period and I watched her take out her books. Man, she was sexy. She was currently in her seat but bending over to get her books from her book back. My eyes wandered from the back of her neck down to her back and lower... But, before my eyes could go any lower, she sat up. I jumped and my knee banged against the table.

"Ah!" I gasped and gripped my knee. I heard a giggle come from her and held back a smile.

"Are you okay?" She asked me and I could her the concern in her voice. Was she always so kind and sweet?

"Yeah, I'm fine Kagome." I replied and soon let go of my knee. I heard another giggle escape from her.

"You should be more careful goofball." She joked. I chuckled softly. Even though the term 'goofball' would be used by children 5 and under, the way she said it sounded so... Great.

"Yeah, I should." I said. Not long after that, we started a conversation. It was the usual, talking about boys who liked her but secretly wanted to get her in bed.

"What about that guy in our Chemistry class? He's the one behind our table. I heard he likes you a little. What do you think about him?" I asked her. She put on a puzzled look before giving an "oh" and responding.

"Yeah, he's nice. And cute I guess." She said. Nice and cute? When talking about only one certain guy? Now that worries me.

"What do you mean nice and cute? Do you like him?" I asked her again. She nodded.

"Yeah, he's okay." She responded.

"You... Like like him? Do you have a crush on him?" I asked her. I prayed to Kami that she would say no. Sadly, my prayer was not heard.

"Yeah, he's a sweet guy and he's cute. He's never been mean to me or any other girl I've known. I guess I do have a crush on him." And with those three sentences spoken from her mouth, my whole entire world came crashing down. Now all I could do was stare at the table that was in front of us. There was so much anger swelling up inside of me. I knew he wasn't different from the other guys. He wasn't as good as everyone thinks he is. I have seen him with other girls and everyday it's always a new girl; a new victim. But I couldn't tell Kagome that. I had no proof. But I wasn't going to let him win a battle so easily.

"I don't like him. He's not right for you." I muttered.

"What makes you say that?" She asked me.

"I just know that he isn't right for you. I don't have proof but I know he's not the guy everyone thinks he is."

"You know he's not good for me, but you have no proof."

"Come on, Kagome, trust me on this."

"Inuyasha--"

"You know what? Forget it. You don't have to trust me if you don't want to, but if you want proof see him when he's not in school." And after I said that, I slung by bookbag over my shoulder and walked out of Study Hall, angry, pained, and sad.

"Inuyasha!" I heard Kagome call after me but I didn't turn. I needed to go home to think. Out of all the things I needed to think about was why my heart felt like it has been ripped into a million little peices.

That mistake was the worst thing that could have ever happened. It made me hurt Kagome and it hurt me too. But, two good things came from that. The first one was that I realized that I was in love with Kagome after those hours of isolation in my room. And the second good thing was that she learned how that guy really was like and ended up hating him, which made me happier than ever. And after that little fight of ours, we grew even closer. And, she learned how to trust me even more since I was right the first time. But, I was just happy. Because I had the chance to win her over again.

And now, here we are. In our Senior year. This year I have decided to finally tell Kagome how I feel. I don't know when exactly, but I know it will be this year. It's now or never. I won't leave without telling her how I have felt for her for over three years. And even if she didn't feel the same way, at least she would know. I hoped that she did feel the same way. Because she might finally realize that her bestfriend might just be the one guy she has been waiting for.
