It's the way you smile.

Misstress Hanako

Summary: It's the way she's always smiling that makes him think that she never cries, but really behind her eyes, are hidden tears that fall for him.

R-RING! R-RING!

"Hello?"A feminine voice answered.

"You ready?"A musculine voice replied.

"As ready as I can be."Was all she said before she hung up. Her name, Kagome Higurashi. 17 year old and a senior in high school. She wasn't the most popularist, nor the most lameist. She was just herself, that's what makes everyone--well almost everyone, love her. Kagome looked at her reflection in the mirror, she was set. She wore a ripped jean and a teal t-shirt. Kagome also had on white flip-flops, and wore her hair up into a messy bun.

DING-DONG!

"Oh?! That must be Kouga."Kagome rushed to the door and opened it. Kouga Ookami was Kagome's good friend, which actually secretly like Kagome. He's a bit flirtatious, but everyone knows that, even his girlfriend Ayame, which he dated since junior year. He's a bit muscular and hair long brown hair that he ties it up. Ayame Higure, was also a friend of Kagome's and Kagome was the one that hooked Kouga and Ayame together.

"Hey, beautiful."Kouga smirked at Kagome bewildernly. Kagome just simply rolled her eyes and playfully slapped his arms.

"Yeah, yeah Kouga. Enough flattering and let's go or else Miroku will get upset."Kagome walked rght past him. Kouga chuckled and follow Kagome's lead and went into his white lamborgini.

"So when does Miroku's party start?"Kouga asked quietly as he notice Kagome seemed bored looking out the window.

"Oh...I think around seven thirty."Kagome replied looking a her watch.

"Alright, we wont be late then since it's only seven."Kouga nodded. Kagome just smiled and agreed.

The ride there was a bit motionless and awkward, but that was Kagome. She and Kouga knew that if there was nothing to talk about, Kagome would go quiet and leave the whole entire place with tension.

"Hey Kouga..."Kagome called out of the blue, still looking out the window in a dazed.

"Yeah? What's up?"Kouga asked.

"Do you think he'll be there?"Kagome still asking.

"Well...I suppose."Kouga eyed Kagome who flinched abit when he said that. He knew who Kagome was referring to, and to be honest, he hated who Kagome was referring to. Eversince sophomore year, everything changed for everyone...even Kagome. And he knew Kagome deserved better. "Why do you ask?"

"Just wondering, you know?"Kagome replied. Still in deep thought.

"Come one now Kagome! You aint going to let that jerk get in your way of partying like a rockstar right?"Kouga tried lightening up the mood, and Kagome just simply giggled.

"No! Of course not!"Kagome smiled."Thanks Kouga, you are always someone to rely on." Kouga just chuckled and parked in the drive way of Miroku's home.

"You know I got your SIDE Kagome."He winked at her and she bursted out laughing."Well, we're here. I wonder if Ayame is there already with Sango?"

"Pretty muc, she told me that she was going to go pick up Sango."Kagome answered his question, and he just nodded. Kagome's stomach was in a knotted because of him. He was in there, and she knew for sure...but she had to face him even though things happened two years ago.

'Here we go, Kagome...you can do this! You see him at school everyday.' Kagome huffed and walked beside Kouga and knocked on the door.

The door opened and it revealed him, InuYasha Taishou. InuYasha Taishou was an old term friend you can say. He had silver hair and amber eyes. Muscular and captain of the football team, along with Kouga. Their friends, but Kouga still despises him for what he did to Kagome. He looked at Kouga for a minute and then at Kagome, his eyes soften but then went bold again.

"What's up man? Come in."InuYasha said shaking Kouga's hand and nodding towards Kagome's direction. She just gave him a soft smile and walked right past without saying a word. InuYasha just looked at Kagome with a single glance and hurtful eyes and closed the door.

"Miroku!! We're here as expected!" Kagome giggled and ran up the stairs while Kouga shook his head and followed. InuYasha just watched Kagome run up and felt himself smile and he chuckled at Kouga who was walked slowly behind her.

"Kagome..."InuYasha whispered. Things screwed up from what he expected. He never thought things could turn out the way they were now. But now it turned out like this. InuYasha raked his right hand through his silver locks.

...He never understood what he really did wrong.
