The World Is Not What It Seems

Chapter 2: Trust Issues

Kagome's POV:

The next day, I'm pretty sure Inuyasha is really tired of Kikyo hanging around him all the time.

He comes up to me while I'm at my locker, Kikyo following him thinking he doesn't notice (which he does because he planned this out), and he asks me out!

"Sure, when?" I ask. Soooo he doesn't know that I know what his plan was(to show Kikyo that he isn't interested in her) while Kikyo doesn't know it was his plan...

"Tonight?" Inuyasha replies.

"Sure, I'll be ready whenever just text me," I say, closing my locker.

Inuyasha and I... Well we're kind of dating, but we haven't had that many dates...? Neither of us have any interest in anyone else, and Inuyasha has major jealousy issues(which includes him trying to kill Koga a few times), but we haven't called each other boyfriend and girlfriend or anything... I dunno, it just doesn't sound right...

Oh, one other thing. The look on Kikyo's face is priceless.


At lunch, I sit with Sango, Ayame, Kirara, and Rin as usual.

But guess who else is sitting there? Kikyo.

I sit down next to Sango, who is sitting next to Kikyo. Ayame, Kirara, and Rin are on the other side of the table.

"Hey guys..." I say as I sit down.

"Hey Kagome," Sango replies cheerfully. "Kikyo wanted to sit with us today, I hope that's alright with you..."

"Um, yeah, it's fine..." I say. Of course, it's completely NOT fine! Kikyo is in love with my... My... My boyfriend! Her ex!

ITS ONLY THE SECOND DAY OF HIGH SCHOOL WHY THE DRAMA?!

"Kagome," Kikyo says, getting my attention. "I'm sorry if you think I'm trying to steal Inuyasha back, I'm not. We got off on the wrong foot, don't be mad! Can we just start over?"

Start over? Start over?! If that bitch thinks I'm gonna start over with her, she better think again. That smile is COMPLETELY FAKE! Stop trying to brainwash my friends they're on my side not yours!

"Um, Kikyo, look," I begin. "If you think I'm gonna believe that, fine by me. But if what you said is true, why are you always following him around?!"'

Well that shut her up.

"Kagome," Sango says. "Give Kikyo a chance, you barely know her!"

Sango?! Are you ok?! Did she literally brainwash you?!

"Well it's her fault for ignoring me in middle school, she could have gotten to know me if she wanted to!" I reply.

"Please, Kagome?" Kikyo says, looking me straight in the eye.

Am I the only one who can see through her?!

I roll my eyes and eat my lunch. "Fine. Whatever."

But something doesn't feel right...


As I wait for Inuyasha to text me, I think about what happened.

And then I wait and wait.

Nothing.

I am constantly checking my phone, getting worried.

What if something happened to him?!

Or what if...

The doorbell rings, and I look out the window.

It's Inuyasha.

But I'm not ready!

I holler downstairs for my mom to get the door, and I scramble to get ready and look decent.

Finally, I race downstairs to greet him.

"Hey Kagome," he says.

"Sorry I took so long, but why didn't you text me?!" I reply.

"I did, didn't you get it?" He asks.

I check my phone again.

"No..."

"I wonder why..."

"Whatever, where are we going?" I ask him.

"Movies," he answers. "Then afterwards you can pick where you want to go for dinner."

I smile. Same Inuyasha.

"Great, let's go."

But something still doesn't feel right...


During the movie, Inuyasha says he's going to get some more popcorn.

After a while of him being gone I start to get worried, but I decide to wait a little bit longer.

After he still doesn't come back, I decide to go looking for him.

My heart drops when I see him though.

Because guess what? He's kissing Kikyo.

My eyes tear up and I run out of the movie theatre as fast as I can. I run home and straight up to my room.

I knew I shouldn't have trusted her. Or him...


The next chapter shall be up in a few minutes, due to my extreme case of boredom.
