Title: If only you knew
Summary: She was in love with him. He was clueless, so she'd pretend. Yeah. Pretend that he was just her best friend. He was in love with another girl, so she'd listen. Listen to him break her heart over and over again. AU Fic InuxKag
Disclaimer: Ha, if I owned the goddamn show, Kagome and Inuyasha would be screaming out their love for each other.
Kagome sniffled. She had spent 2 whole hours crying her heart out and finally calmed down. 'Why can't it ever be me?' She thought depressed. Suddenly the phone rang. She immediately tried to stop her sniffling and get her voice back to normal.
"Kagome, phone for you!" Souta called out from the living room, still focused on his games.
"Alright, I got it!" Kagome yelled back down the stairs. She then took a deep breath and brought the phone to her ear.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Hey Kags! You will not believe how wonderful my day went!" the other voice on the phone said. Kagome did the best she could to hold her tears in and put on a cheery voice.
"Hey Inuyasha, so how was it?"
"It's like a fantasy. Kikyou is so amazing, I've never met a girl like her before." Inuyasha said dreamily. "After school, we went out to eat at WacDonald's and she told me all about herself and can you believe it? One time she even…" he droned on and Kagome could feel the tears coming back to her eyes.
"Um… oh look, there's my mother, I have to go. Bye." She said quickly and hung up on him. The tears began to flow.
"Kagome, it's time to eat." Her mother said from downstairs. Kagome wiped her tears, washed her face and headed down.

The dinner was pretty quiet. Kagome's mother noticed there was something wrong, but kept from saying anything to upset her any further, especially in front of Souta.
"So… Kagome how was school?" She asked cautionsly.
"Inuyasha…met… a new girl." Kagome said quietly. "She seems nice."
"Oh really? What's her name?" Her mother asked curiously. 'This must be what's been bugging her. Poor girl, Inuyasha doesn't even realize she's in love with him.'
"Kikyou…" she said softly. "A pretty name, much better than mine." She laughed sadly. "May I be excused? I'm not really hungry."
"Kagome…" She put on a fake smile.
"I'm fine, mom, don't worry!" She said with fake happiness as she ran up to her room.
Once she got up there, she flopped on to her bed, feeling her tears come back.
I've never met a girl like her before.
I've never met a girl like her before.
Those words rang continuously in Kagome's head. 'Of course, because to him, I'm just a friend he can mess around with and talk to, that's all. Nothing more, nothing less.' She thought bitterly.
At Inuyasha'sHe stared at the phone as if it was about to eat him.
'That's odd, Kagome left so suddenly.' He thought. Inuyasha may have been as dense as cardboard, but he wasn't stupid. He's known Kagome for 16 years and he could definitely tell when something was wrong (although he never knew what it was about).
"Huh, she must have been in a hurry to go somewhere I bet. I'll just call her later." He said ignoring the voice in his head that said that there was something wrong.
"Inuyasha, time to eat!" Izayoi (A/N: I may have spelled that wrong… sorry!) called to her son.
"Hai, Hai." Inuyasha said as he came down the stairs.
"Guess what, Okaa-san?" Inuyasha said excitedly when they sat down. It was only Inuyasha and his mother living in their huge house, since his father passed away and his brother moved out as quickly as possible. Together, they lived in a mansion in the richer area, although not many people knew, except Kagome, Sango, and Miroku of course.
"What are you so excited about?" Inuyasha's mother asked.
"I think I really like this girl I met in school today." Izayoi coughed. 'Oh no, Kagome must be heartbroken right now. I should go talk to her soon.' Izayoi and Kagome were as close as she and her own son were, and knew about her love for Inuyasha. 'If only you knew Inuyasha.' She thought, but kept quiet.
"So what's her name? What's she like?"
"Oh she's like, the best thing to ever happen me. Her name is Kikyou. She's everything I've ever wanted. She's sweet, caring, and really likes me! I mean, no one usually wants to even talk to me, because of the whole hanyou thing, but she hasn't even judged me on it. I think she's perfect." Inuyasha said.
'Sounds just like Kagome.' She thought to herself as Inuyasha droned on about Kikyou.
"Honey, I think the laundry is done, anyway, have fun with this Kinko girl." She said and quickly left.
"Alright, and FYI, it's Kikyou." He said as he went back up the stairs. 'That's odd, Kagome seemed to act the same way too. They hang out together wayyy too much.' He thought and went to sleep dreaming about, who else, Kikyou.
Inuyasha's mother just stood outside his doorway and sighed. 'I just hope everything turns out the way its supposed to.'
Okay, here's how it goes. Later on in the story, I'm going to make Kikyou a little… devilish, but that's later. So if you guys aren't really like how this is going with Kikyou, dodn't worry too much hehe. Thanks for all the reviews guys! I really appreciate it!
