Chapter 1
20 year old Raven is a misfit among everybody her age. She is very beautiful, and turns heads everywhere she goes. Raven is tiny built, with a height of about 5 ft. 3 in, and a weight of 115 pounds. She has long ,wavy ,lavender colored hair, and a perfect widow's peak hairline, that comes to a point about halfway down her forehead. She has pale colored skin, that some people say is as white as a ghost. She has a graceful effect when she walks, and smiles to hide her real deep down sorrow, and anguish. And, she is also a half demon. Raven is ashamed of this, and has to constantly calm her temper. People sometimes make fun of her, by calling her a "half-freak, half monster." This only occurs at her college that she attends. Her friends, a woman named Sango, and a man named Miroku, are protective over her. Raven has never been in love, but this is all about to change when she walks into her Psychology class one day.
"Why does everyone have to be so slow? I could be at home eating chili right now." ,Raven says this as she struggles to get through students at Foxboro college, in Massachusetts. Finally, she gets to the room as the bell rings. The teacher closes the door, just as Raven puts her hand on it. The teacher named looks at her, smiling. She puts her hand on Raven shoulder, and walks her in. One of the students immediately say:" Teacher's pet! Get out of here half breed, half freak." Raven has enough, then walks over, and hit's the guy on the head. The teacher catches her, and says : " Miss Roth, there's no hitting of any kind allowed in here." Raven hit's the guy on the head again, despite the teacher's command not to do so. She sits down in her assigned seat, and hears a laughter come from behind her. Raven hears him whisper: " That woman has so much attitude, I like that ." She turns around to see the face of the person who had said this, and is almost breathless. There is a very handsome man ,tall in height , with long white/silver hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a baseball cap to the side. Raven greatly admired his muscular build, as she could tell he had to work to get his current body figure. And his warm golden colored eyes, just by looking at them ,Raven could tell he was different than the others. She saw his eyes look up at her, and almost immediately he started blushing. "Why isn't he making fun of me?" "And why is this guy acting so strange towards me?" Suddenly the teacher called on her name, saying:" Miss Raven, would you like to tell the class why someone gets attracted to someone else? This is Psychology class, not flirting 101." She quickly turned around, and the whole class laughed at her. Raven quickly lowered her head, and felt her cheeks turn red, from embarrassment.
The bell rings, signaling the end of Psychology class. Raven quickly runs out of there, when she drops her stuff. Just when she kneels down to get her books, she sees a pair of shoes walk up to her. After closer examination, she sees that this is the man that was sitting behind her. He kneels down, and picks up Raven's books for her. When he makes eye contact with her, she sees him smile. He says in a soft ,and shaky voice:" Here's your books." Raven takes them from him, and her hands accidentally brush up against his. "This man's skin is so warm.", she thinks fondly to herself. Raven is barely able to say : "Thanks.". She goes to walk away, but the man stops her. "Hey, why are people so mean toward you?", He asks with an understanding tone of voice. Raven doesn't answer him, because she thinks that he will pick on her, just like everyone else. After a minute of not saying anything, he says laughing a little: " When you hit that guy on the back of the head, I thought that was really funny. You have this 'I don't care what you think of me' attitude.. I like that." Raven can't help but to blush, and says smiling : " Thanks for the compliment." She hears the man ask shyly : " I was hoping that you would give me your number, so I could call you sometime." Raven is speechless. This really good looking man just asked her, for her number. She takes out a pencil, and tears a piece of paper out of her notebook. She writes it down, then hands it to him. She says:" There you go." The man smiles, and says:" Thanks, I'll call you tonight." After he walks off, Raven is feeling faint, but filled with happiness.
It was a few weeks later, and the man named Inuyasha had called Raven every night. They talked on the phone for hours, and she even cried, because of getting made fun of so much. She has never seen him without the hat on, or with his hair down. He understood her, and she understood him.
It was an evening, and Raven was sitting in her apartment, eating her favorite kind of food, which was chili. She was watching the football channel, because she is a tomboy, and hates girlish things. Her favorite quarterback Tom Brady, appeared. "He is so cute!", Raven exclaims with excitement. At this moment, she hears her phone ring. She answers it, and says "Hello." Raven hears Inuyasha's voice, and gets exited. "Hey, it's good to hear from you." He asks her if he can come over, because he says that he has something to tell, and show her. "Well, of course you can." Raven hears a knock at her door, when he gets off the phone. She gets up to answer it, and Inuyasha is standing there. Raven smiles, and hugs him. "You're here.. I can't believe it." He walks in, and shuts the door. Raven locks it, and says: "So you wanted to tell, and show me something?" He nods, then sits down on the couch beside her. She turns down the television, and hears him sigh nervously. " I feel like I have to tell you this, because we understand each other." Inuyasha clears his throat, and says :" I don't want you to be scared of me, when I tell you this. But I'm a half demon." "And what I wanted to show you, was this." He takes off his hat, and reveals to Raven 2 white cat like ears on his head. And, he takes out his ponytail. She is almost speechless. "Inuyasha, your completely ,well don't mind me for saying this, but you are very good looking, and handsome." "About the half demon thing.." He lowers his head. "I knew I shouldn't have told you." Raven shakes her head. " No Inuyasha, you don't understand. I'm a half demon also." He looks at her, almost speechless. "Really, how can I believe you?" He thought for a minute, than said : "I know how." Inuyasha started moving his face closer to hers, when she asked : "How does this help prove I'm a half demon?" He said :" Because if you are what you say, I'll feel this intense emotion go through me." " It'll only be for a few seconds." He finally presses his lips against hers, and feels weak to his knees. He pulls back, and says :"You are right, about being a half demon."
