Title
Chapter 1
He barely knew her.
That was the first thing that came into his head as he walked there, even though it was true.
He was Inuyasha, the most popular kid at school and her? Well she was just...Kagome.
While he was living it up with his money and friends, what was she doing? She worked in the restaurant in the local mall, waitressing everyday from 4 to 8pm.
Why did he know that? He wondered.
She was the quietest, the smartest, the...what else? He couldn't, wouldn't, admit the truth.
She had been his closest friend growing up. Before the money and the friends and the fame and...everything. He used to know her so well, the way she knew him. Their mothers had been and still were inseparable. Perhaps even more now than before.
They had become friends after getting lost in the city park's maze. Thy had been so thrilled.
He remembered kindergarten. The excitement on their first day, and being in the same class.
But for some reason, he felt the elementary school memories flash by into the first day of middle school. A little disappointing that they weren't in the same class, and that was it. He almost felt ashamed for how little memories he had from when they had still been close.
A few days ago he would have been ashamed to say that they use to be. He almost hit himself when he realized how much he sounded like a jerk.
Fast forward to high school. The source of all their problems. When he looked back, he realized he had forgotten her.
As if she had even been a major part of his life.
His father had gotten a new, six figure paying job. And he was thrilled.
With a pang, he remembered that she had been thrilled too. As always, she was happy for good fortune that hadn't happened to her.
She had hidden her sadness when he told her he was moving to the richest part of town. He hadn't known how deeply it had affected her.
What did he care after all? He was newly rich and his father was buying him things right and left.
Nothing was good enough for his son now.
He remembered a time when he had wanted to buy a pair of shoes he had previously thought expensive. His father had given him a stern lecture after he had put them back.
"Inuyasha, we are people with money now, we can now afford to buy the most money can give us. Buy anything you want."
Thrilled, he had started buying the most expensive things, just for the heck of it.
He bought the "best" computer, tv, stereo, sound system, every game system available, and their games. He had even bought Kagome an expensive birthday present, a necklace she had beens staring at for months. A silver chain with a round pink jewel hanging from it.
She had been so happy, and later she had taken him aside to talk to him. She had suddenly burst into tears, and he had been utterly bewildered. After all, on thier 15th birthday, most girls don't take their best friend aside and begin to cry.
He asked her what was the matter and she had said, "Because I know I'll never be able to get you anything as nice as what you've got me."
"Don't worry, Kagome. I'm sure you'll think of something." He had replied.
Looking back, he considered what he said. It made him feel rather like an idiot.
Of course, he really hadn't been paying much attention. He realized this now.
It made his stomach churn a little. Had he really been such a bad friend?
And now...he might never get to apoligize...if the worst came to pass.
He shook his head angrily, no, that would not happen.
IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN.
He had to calm down.
He looked around and ducked into a small cafe and sat at a table near the window.
"Coffee, 2 sugars."
When it came, he stirred it and stared into it distractedly.
What had gone so terribly wrong?
What had he done wrong?
