The next day , Kagome got up soon and got dressed, she was living in her own house in Japan after her entire family was burnt away in a fire, but with Kouga around Kagome never felt the absence of anyone, he fulfilled the space for everyone except…

"Hey, Kagome ,why don't we do the project in the library after school?",Inuyasha asked.

Kagome's eyes glowed with shear happiness, everytime Inuyasha spoke to her, she smiled and nodded her head. It was the last year of college and they were going to have a prom night just before 2 monthes if their final exam.

In the library, Kagome asked meekly,"Inuyasha, do you mind being my partner in the prom?"

Inuyasha looked at her with confused eyes and said," Ofcourse…." For a second Kagome thought that the sentence would end like,"Yes, "

But Inuyasha concluded, "Ofcourse not Kagome, only couples are going to be partners , and we are not…..so it just doesn't click".

Just then Inuaysha's phone rang and he excused himself, Kagome bit her lip hard to control herself from spilling into tears. Everytime Inuyasha would reject her for the other girl Kikyo, with whom he was talking on the phone. She looked behind and saw Inuyasha talking with a delightful smile on his face.

'Atleast , he's happy', a thoughtjust passed through her head.

'But you got to think about yourself to Kagome. You should tell Inuyasha how you feel', Kouga's words raced through her head. Each time Kagome used to get upset with Inuyasha, she would confide in Kouga her true feelings, and Kouga would tell her what she needed to do. Kagome trusted Kouga as a true and dear friend. But Kouga felt foer Kagome and wanted to with her. So after several monthes Inuyasha left Kagome, Kouga proposed Kagome, Kagome couldn't say o to him, for the fear that she may lose a friend like him and also she didn't want Kouga to suffer the same fate that were store in for her.

The sun beamed as Kagome started watering her flowers. She sold many varieties of flowers ans she knew the meaning for each type of flower, making them even more special. She also had bouquets and small gift items which could be of great use to lovers."

It was 10 in the morning, when a customer arrived, he had long silver hair and was well-built with handsome features and of tall height. Kagome was arranging some roses and on a colourful basket and her back was to him when she heard his footsteps , asked,"What would you like to buy sir?"

"I was thinking of buying some lilies." Said the customer.

Kagome found the voice rather very familiar but she continued to work and said," Lilies are very fresh now sir, would you like me to gift pack them, are they for your lucky lady sir?"

"Yes, I would want them to be very delicately wrapped, she loves lilies".Kagome started to pick some lilies and wrapped them with a velvety ribbon and said,"Yes ir, young ladies like lilies, they are my favourite too".

The customer didn't said anything. When Kagome turned to face him, he turned away and took the flowers gently with an extended hand keeping some money on the table.

When Kagome returned with the change, she said,"Your change , sir".

But the customer was already gone. Kagome looked around and murmured , "Strange".

That evening Kagome went out for dinner with Kouga, she was wearing a cream coloured one shouldered dress which was hugging her curves very aptly. Kouga commented,"Hmm, you're looking very radiant".

Kagome blushed and said a small thank you.

She then told him about the incident which happened at her shop. Kouga thought about it and then said,"Well, , it's fine if nothing happens to you, but the incident is really very….strange"

"I hope I don't get to see such customers in future". She smiled a little.

After having a delicious meal, Kouga and Kagome went for a walk by the lake and then Kouga dropped her at her home.

When they reached Kagome's house gate, Kouga hugged Kagome and said," You looked lovely today?"

"Don't I everyday?", asked Kagome with naughty eyes.

Grabbing her , he said," Hmmm, yeah, well right. So you're gonna go right into bed now aren't you?"

Kagome nodded.

"Hmm, wish I could join you".

Kagome smiled and pushed him back playfully said,"Kouga not again".

Kouga gave a smirk and said,"Okay I'll see you tomorrow then, bye dear".

Kagome waved her hand and Kouga went off with his car.

When Kagome reached her front porch, to her amazement, she saw a bouquet of lilies on the doormat. She picked it and and revolved it realizing that it was the same lilies that the strange customer had bought her from. She looked here and there but she could find no one whom she could suspect.

She searched for a note inside the bunch of flowers and saw one. Opening it, she caught the fresh smell of cinnamon , she loved the smell and she thought it was scented.

On the note it was written,

Will meet soon, Kagome.

"That's it", said Kagome. The stranger had left nothing but this note which has the most insignificant words written on it. She took the flowers and said with a smile,"Atleast they are fresh enough for my living room today."

Not far her house was standing a silver-haired man with a smirk playing on his face," Good night, Kagome. Will meet soon".
