Inusapphrine: All right I wasn't going to start a new story yet but I really want to cause I have too many Ideas.

Full summary: Kagome is engaged to Kouga but isn't really happy. She catches him with another girl and blows it off with the help of her best friend, Inuyasha! Now their on the run from Kouga who seeks to kill her.

Chapter 1: The end of a bad engagement

Kagome Higurashi walks down the halls of her fiancé's mansion. She looks into this room where she heard noises when she came through the door. Her heart merely stopped right in it's place. Her fiancé, Kouga on top of another girl.

Her eyes filled with tears. Her heart ached. The man she thought she loved was in there ruining her happy life and the chance of ever sharing a happy life. She quietly got the door shut and ran tip-toed to her room where she shut the door, slumped down to the ground, and cried. She felt alone .

She made a deal with herself that she would keep it secret for a while and believe nothing ever happened. She looked down on her arm where a bruise of a hand was and had a flash back on what happened. It was only a week ago.

flash back

Kagome made some pasta for a nice quiet night with Kouga. She put the pasta on two plates and gave one to Kouga. Kouga glared at her and grabbed her arm. The pressure of it made Kagome drop the plate of hot pasta on Kouga's lap. Kouga had drank that afternoon and flared at Kagome.

Still holding on to Kagome's arm tightly, he got up and slapped her across the face. Kagome screamed and tried to get loose from his grip. She did and ran out the door. She went and stayed at her friend, Sango's house. The next morning, Kouga wetn to Sango's and apologized to Kaogme for what he did, and how he would never hurt her again.

The problem was that it wasn't the first time that he did that to her and she was sober. Kagome looked on the desk where Inuyasha's hotel number lay. He had left a month ago and was going to be back in another month.

Kagome decided to wait until Inuyasha got back from his trip to throw it all off. Inuyasha would help her because they were best friends. Inuyasha never even liked Kouga, but he was nice to him for Kagome's sake.

It took Kagome about another 10 minutes to calm down. Then, she crawled in bed and went to sleep.

a month later at the airport

" Inuyasha!!!" Kagome greeted her best friend with a hug. " Hey! Make a note to yourself never to leave me that long ever again."

" Good to see ya Kagome!" He hugged her back. As he hugged her he noticed right by her ear, on the edge of her cheek. He had a flare of rage through him. " Kagome, where did that bruise come from?" He asked with sincere worry.

" Well, it is kind of a long story so lets jus' forget it." Kagome said a little jumpy. She took Inuyasha to lunch to catch up with him and later on went home.

When she came home, she saw Kouga standing arms crossed and glaring at Kagome. " You were out with Inuyasha today weren't you.?"

" So what if I was? At least I wasn't sleeping with him like you sleeping with other girls behind my back!" Kagome yelled back at him. " So I'm through with you!" She threw the ring at him.

Kouga grabbed Kagome by the neck and pushed her into the wall. He then punched her right in the eye. Kagome then got away and ran to Inuyasha's house as fast as she could. Within 2 minutes she made it there and pounded on the door.

Inuyasha opened the door and, to his surprise, found Kagome crying and she fell to the ground. Inuyasha picked her up and carried her inside. She had a cut just to the side of her eye (which was bleeding). Inuyasha set her down on the couch and got her to stop crying.

She told him everything that went on and how she had nowhere else to go. Inuyasha embraced her into a comforting hug. (hugs hugs everywhere hehe). Soon Kagome fell asleep in Inuyasha's arms.
