Chapter 2: Introductions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Miroku pouted "I guess I can try…ooh look!"

Inuyasha turned in the direction Miroku was pointing, and saw girls wearing maroon and gold, their school colors. As they walked up to the bleachers next to the field, Inuyasha's eyes wandered over to 3 girls running around the field. "Hey, those girls look familiar."

Miroku smiled at the sight "Well duh Yash. The one with the black hair is Kagome. She's in our history class. And the lovely one with the loose ponytail is Sango, and the red head is Ayame. They've been to some of our football games." Miroku said matter-of-factly.

Racking his brain, Inuyasha remembered. Kagome Higurashi. She sat towards the front of the class. And the other two were her friends, they were always together. And now that he thought about it, he did remember seeing them in the stands at a couple of games.

Miroku punched Inuyasha in the arm "Hey stop daydreaming! Here they come!"

Inuyasha glanced up, and sure enough the girls were sprinting right in their direction, stopping at the dugout to get their gloves. The boys' eyes followed them to the grass in the outfield as they did some warm-up throws. Inuyasha then turned to look at Miroku, whose eyes were still fixed on the girls.

"Not that this isn't fun..." Miroku turned to look at the hanyou. "But I really gotta get going." Inuyasha slid off the bleachers and turned to leave, when…

SMACK!!

"What the hell?!" Inuyasha turned around eyes burning. But instead of seeing Miroku, he saw Kagome standing at the fence, with an apologetic look on her face.

"I-I'm so sorry." She said rubbing her neck. "Sango sometimes doesn't know her own strength." She gave a hesitant laugh and a little smile.

Inuyasha looked down at his feet, to see the large yellow ball in the grass. "Its okay" he said casually and bent over to grab the object. When he stood back up, Kagome had her glove open, expecting him to throw it back. But instead, Inuyasha made his way over to her.

"So," he replied once reaching the fence. "Its Kagome right?"

Kagome's POV

She thought her heart was going to stop beating when he said her name. She never thought he even knew she existed. Kagome nodded her head, knowing her voice would fail her if she tried to speak. She had a crush on Inuyasha ever since 6th grade. Even in middle school he was tall and built. But he had always been in with the "popular" group. Kagome herself was nowhere near a nerd, but she wasn't popular either. She was comfortable being right in the middle. But in middle school, she never had an opportunity to talk to Inuyasha. At the time he was dating a total witch named Kikyo. She was your typical popular girl. Cheerleader, dance team, and all the guys wanted her. Kikyo never let Inuyasha socialize with anyone. She claimed him like a trophy. But that all changed in 7th grade when Inuyasha found out that Kikyo had cheated on him. He broke up with her, and out of anger and humiliation, she moved to another school across town. Sango had told Kagome that it was the perfect opportunity, but Kagome would always chicken out whenever she got near Inuyasha. Now here he was, inches away. The only thing separating them was a fence.

"So when's your next game?"

Kagome was forced back into the present, "W-what?

"Your next game. When is it?" Inuyasha stepped back a little bit so he could toss the ball over the fence.

Kagome caught the ball and felt her face heat up when she looked up into his amber eyes. She had never seen anything like them. After a few moments of staring into his gorgeous eyes, Kagome managed to find her voice. "It's in two days, on Saturday." Why does he care? He's never paid attention to me…

"Well Kagome" leaning his head on the fence, "You might just see me there" and with that he gave her a smile that left her breathless.

"And me too!" Miroku had been watching this from the bleachers, quite amused. But now he was standing beside Inuyasha, also leaning against the fence. "As long as you introduce me to your friend over there."

Kagome turned around to where Sango and Ayame were standing; both were giving her skeptical looks. She'd definitely have to explain this later.

"Oh, Sango? Alright." Kagome nodded at Miroku, who flashed a gorgeous smile in thanks.

"This is Miroku, and I'm Inuyasha."

Kagome nodded. Oh trust me I know. Kagome thought to herself

Inuyasha then leaned in closer "So, I guess I'll see ya there. Oh, and I'd get back over there before Sagura sees you." Then he winked, and they walked away.

Finally finding both her voice and her breath, Kagome breathed in slowly as she walked back over to her confused and curious friends. Wow. Inuyasha actually talked to me. And to think, I thought this practice was going to be terrible!

When Kagome reached her friends, they immediately started asking questions.

"WHAT JUST HAPPENED? WHAT WERE YOU TALKING ABOUT?"

Kagome opened her mouth to answer, but then she saw the coach start to walk over. "Come over to my house tonight and I'll tell you everything."
