Hey guys! I'm trying something different with this story. It has somewhat of a darker theme, but it's not lemon, it's just more emotional I guess… lol. I tried this out on my friends first and they liked it, so we'll see how it goes. Enjoy.

P.S. Future chapter will be much longer,

Disclaimer: No…not yet, but just wait, just wait! Inuyasha will be mine! muahahaha

Prologue

This is it, she thought to her self. This is your chance to change and let go, and become something new and different. She sighed, there's no going back now. She threw her closet doors open and practically started to rip all out her clothing out of their hangers in her closet. Everything that reminded her of him and the weakness she had allowed him to see had to go. She didn't want to bear those memories anymore, she wanted all the time they spend together, to just be gone and with a magical 'poof' forever from her life. Alas, there is little she could do about her memories but what she could and would do is control the effect they had on her.

She didn't want to be that pushover lowlife who fell for whoever spared a second glace her way. No, things would be different this time, she decided. It was time for her to stop being so damn naïve all the time and see people for who they were. Bastards. And start seeing what love really is. Bullshit. Yes, she thought, nothing but a waste of time and energy. Oh so precious time. How little left she had of it. Seems like only yesterday she fell in love. And seems like that very same day, fell right out of it. But unlike most people, there was no one to break her fall.

Oh how cruelly she fell. All the heartache and denial, that it wasn't true. All the hoping that he would change. Spending her nights and days like an empty, hollow shell, without anyone to notice or care. All the waiting and crying until tears wouldn't come anymore, and nothing but emptiness surrounded her. Emptiness. Over the months it had become the one thing she had relied on to always be there. To claim her heart with sweet darkness and to give her the escape that she longed for throughout the day and the vacant, cold nights.

It felt as though she had aged years and lost her innocence that she would never be able to get back, in a blink of an eye. It was then that her once, loving and trusting persona crumbled into a thousand little pieces. And it was then that she had built an ice wall around her broken heart, in hopes of being spared of pain again.

She was starting over, and would not tolerate anyone who would get in her way. Changing her looks and clothes was only a small part of her plan. Her sweet, open, playful, girl-next-door persona would be replaced with something mysterious and dangerous. She was through with being nice. From now on she would take risks and chances, because her only goal this year was to have no regrets. And she wouldn't.
