Promise Me

They say that promises last forever, that their bond with words never bends. A promise can tie two people together till the end of eternity—even after their dying day. A secret oath that they take to the grave; that they'd give their life and happiness if they ever broke it. A sentence such as that almost seemed inevitable to two certain people—both whom had almost put their hearts on the line just to have those few words exchanged.

But years fly by quickly, and soon the only thing that they could ever think about had fled from their minds, and it was soon forgotten into the waste of unwanted memories. Both moved on, not knowing that that promise had not been forgotten, but was just about to reach the surface and remind them of what was meant to be.

The dance of death—anyone who watched was pulled into the trance that held you for hours after. The music vibrated through the table and up through her body. The beats bounced off the walls to spread through the whole cafeteria, waking everyone up. Her petit figure swayed with the music—making sure not to miss a beat. A devious smirk made its was across her rosy lips—the sweet lips that every man dreamed of tasting. Her sapphire orbs examined the faces around her, watching as they all focused on her.

Her tiny skirt revealed her slender legs, smoother than ever though possible. Her schoolgirl shirt was tied tightly around her chest, cutting short above her stomach. The traditional school uniform had been transformed into that. Her high socks, skirt rolled, shirt tied high—all of it came together in her look for fame of the school.

Kagome Higurashi—the forbidden fruit. Sweet as sugar, hot as fire—but untouchable. Her silky hair whipped around her face as she spun around, giving the closest boy a wink. His friends gave him looks of awe, wanting to be the one that she chose to send a wink their way. She continued to sway her hips, mouthing words sensually. She was the one that everyone either wished they could be, or wish who they could get with.

"Kagome! Off the table now!" An older man yelled, his face hot from the blush that had spread across his cheeks. Kagome finished her dance abruptly and got down from the table. Without glancing at the teacher she grabbed the stereo and headed over to where her friend Sango was sitting, eating her lunch quietly. Kagome sat down next to her, ignoring all of the stares she was receiving.

"That was refreshing." She said giddily. She saw an upcoming boy, at least a head shorter than her with circular glasses. He had a large amount of freckles across the bridge of his nose and along his cheeks, and inside his mouth were clearly visible braces. She stuck her hand out as he was walking by, stopping him dead in his tracks. She smiled sweetly up at him, her teeth flawless.

"H-hi." He managed out of his mouth ion a squeaky voice. Her smile didn't waver as she continued to keep her attention on the boy.

"Say, do you mind taking this to the ladies PE room?" She asked, her hand still on his arm. His eyes widened beneath his glasses as he quickly nodded, forgetting about the brown paper bag in his hand. He dropped it on the ground and immediately seized the music box and ran away, a large smile imprinted on his face.

"You enjoy this don't you?" Sango asked casually, forking her tuna salad that had been stored in a container. Kagome turned to her friend and laughed.

"Now you know I do." She said watching as a smile filled her friends facial features.

"You're so full of yourself." She said as she ate her food. Kagome sighed and turned around in her spot, leaning against the edge of the table. She began to scan the cafeteria, trying to decide who her next victim would be. Her eyes passed many hopeful candidates, watching as she scoped for him. In a way, she grew bored of fondling with a boy's heart and then breaking into pieces that they can never gather.

Her eyes quickly passed the one and only lecher who was chatting away with some jocks. She'd never give him a chance—he was her friend, but sometimes he was just too perverted for her. She sighed and continued until she had finished her rotation. She was about to turn back to Sango and start a conversation when her eyes caught a flash of silver. Her eyes spun back to find the source of the sudden colour, but she couldn't. Her heart had started to pick up the pace, and her eyes still frantically searched the cafeteria—wall to wall.

That couldn't have been—I thought I was done five years ago?

She continued searching; wanting to find out if she was getting herself worked up over nothing. She could barely hear the bell or Sango calling out to her. Until her vision was flooded by many bodies clad in the school wear.

"Kagome? Are you all right?" Sango asked concerned as she got up. "You look like you've just seen a ghost."

I think I might have.

"Yeah, perfectly fine. A little tired is all." She said hopping up, getting ready to prepare herself for what lay ahead of her.

When you least expect it all, your world starts to spin, creating somewhat of time travel for yourselves. You could be hit with more painful memories at once then you could in a lifetime. But when it all comes crashing down on you, you'd better be prepared for the worst...

A/U: This is a little OOC on Kagome's part, but please forgive me. Thanks to Melody Unwinding, I've perfected my story, and I hope you all like it. So I'll try to update soon!
