Chapter 2
Lie or Love?

"Kagome, thank's a lot for saving me from that crowd of people! I though they we're going to crush me!" Sota said happy.

"For nothing;) That's what are sisters for." Kagome said smiling.

They were on the front deck with their backpacks on their back. It was a sunny day and people started to spread around as trying to find their rooms.

"We'd better find mum." Sota suggested.

"That's a good idea!"Kagome said, but while she turned around in order to search for her mother, she bumped directly into somebody, almost falling down.

"Sorry..."She said instictually, but when she rose her eyes, her knees suddenly softened.

Kagome blushed and almost lost her breath as she saw Inuyasha standing right in front of her, so close that she could see that his cheeks has a pale color of red as well. If he hadn't grabbed her, she would have certanly fallen. She was surely dreaming...again...

"Inuyasha, what are you doing here?" Sota asked surprised.

"I was looking for Kagome." He said as nothing seemed to happen.

"But you don't suppouse to be ...here."Kagome said as she was able to stand up herself and control her voice.

"What do you expect after what happened to...?"Inuyasha suddenly stopped.

"Happened what?" Sota asked as he was carefully listening to what they were doing.

"NOTHING!"They both actually shouted and blushed.

Inuyasha turned around hinding his reaction and Kagome acted as she was trying to find something in her backpack. Fortunatelly, Kagome's mother appeared and saved them from any other questions from Sota.

"Oh, here you are." She said smiling."You probably noticed that Inuyasha decided to join us."

"Where is Grandpa?" Sota asked concerned.

"He couldn't come..anymore as Inuyasha came on his ticket..."Kagome's mother said. "So we have to deal with this situation.."She added and looked at Kagome as she was saying: "Enjoy the holiday...I know you are happy...now".

Kagome was embarassed and reacted angrilly:

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THIS!You are ruining me another holiday! Thank's a lot INUYASHA!"She said and went away.

"Sis can be so scary!"Sota said.

"Don't worry, she'll come back. Let's take a look around here. Inuyasha would you like to join us?"Kagome's mother asked.

"No, thank you. I'll stay here and waith for Kagome to return..."He said a bit sad.

"OK. Don't be sad. She'll forgive you."

"Yeah, I'm sure she is happy of you presence."Sota said smiling.

"Are you sure?"Inuyasha asked.

"Very sure;)"Sota said and went away with his mother.

Inuyasha waited them to go away and then he went straightly after Kagome, but he hadn't had to search too much, as he find her hiding right at the corner.

"Nice act!"Inuyasha said as he came near Kagome and sit near her as she was on the floor.

"I'm not the only actor here. You deceived my mother and my brother."Kagome said and then they both started laughing.

"We are two liars." Inuyasha said.

"No, we are too cowards... "Kagome said as the night before came in her mind. "Inuyasha..."She wanted to say.

"You don't have to tell me. I know you had another nightmare. I felt it...from the Feudal Era..."

"You mean..."She said surprised.

"I couldn't stopped thinking at you, so i couldn't sleep. Also, I had a strange feeling that something was wrong...and i came and found you crying...Are you all right?"He asked concern and grabbed her hand.

"I..."

"When I saw you this morning I though you were going to fall. And looking better at you I think you are not far either now. You look worse!"

"Thank's for the compliment!I am just concerned about many things..."Kagome finally said as starting playing with his fingers from the other hand.

"As? "

"As nothing..."Kagome tried to said showing a smile.

"Kagome you may trick your family, but I know you well enough to see that something bothers you, so you better tell me!" He said nervous.

"As our engagement for example!"Kagome said, but her voice raised more than she expected. "Sorry..."

"It's all right. I feel the same... "Inuyasha said serious. "It's like something bad could happen every moement..."

"...just because we are so..."

"Happy? Pleased? Relaxed?"

"IN LOVE!"She said and blushed. "Isn't it obvious already?!Even my mother saw that I'm smiling since you came and I don't know how to hide this anymore!"

"The let's tell them the truth!"he said, but not very convincing.

"NO!"Kagome almost screamed and tears showed in her eyes.

Inuyasha moved his hand and dried them and then she moved it on her hair comforting her:

"Don't worry, I am here for you. I know you...we can make it. Just tell me when you are ready, but promise me you won't tell them alone. I'm involved too, so don't take all the blame on you. "

"Ok, thank's!"Kagome said smiling and wanted to hug him, but he stopped her. She looked shocked at him and prepared to cry, but he dried her tars again and gave her a kis on her forehead.

"Don't forget, we are engaged. This means I love you and I'll always will!"He said while walking away.

Before she could even react she heard a familiar voice from behind herself.

"Kagome, here you are!"Kagome's mother said.

"Ssi, the ship is awesome! Please forget Inuyasha and let's go all togheter to see our room!"

"OK."Kagome said trying to be sad, but she was so happyn that she hardly refrain herself not to ran and hug Inuyasha when they went back at him. He was standing in the same place and seemed absorbed by the sea.

"Inuyasha let's go and see our rooms!" She said.

"I told you she will forget you!"Sota wispeared him.

"I'm coming!"Inuyasha said and watched once again the sea.

Actually this was what Kagome's familly thought...Inuyasha was actaully looking at a necklace who was the same as Kagome's.

"Engaged...I thought it will never gone happened as I'd never thought i and Kagome will get in a holiday again..."Inuyasha said and went after the others, but first he hide the necklace.

He saw Kagome watching him. She know what he really did. He smiled. They were two liars, but so fallen in love with each other!
