The World Is Not What It Seems

Chapter 3: Don't You Understand?!

Inuyasha's POV:

I was about to get some more popcorn for me and Kagome, but guess who decided to show up? Kikyo.

"Hey Inuyasha," she says. "You here alone?"

"Um, no, I'm here with Kagome," I reply.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't know you were on a date," she says.

"Well I am, so get lost."

"Why? I didn't know you hated me so much."

"Kikyo, I don't want anyone ruining our date, so you should probably stay away."

"But-"

"No. Go away!"

And then she grabs my face and freaking kisses me on the lips!

I try to get away, but her grip is too strong.

Finally, I get her to let me go and I immediately turn around and walk away.

"Sorry Inuyasha, but I couldn't resist," she says.

I don't say anything just begin walking back to the movie.

But what is Kagome gonna think?!

I see something glittering on the ground. A bracelet.

I pick it up and sniff it. It's Kagome's!

Did she see me...

!

I immediately race to Kagome's.

Crap, she probably thinks I'm cheating on her or something!

Damnit Kikyo! Let it go! I never liked you anyways! Now you've hurt the woman I do love!

When I get to Kagome's I ring the doorbell repeatedly.

Damnit!

Finally, her mom answers the door.

"Inuyasha? What are you-"

I don't wait for her to finish her sentence, I just enter the house and run up to Kagome's room.

"Inuyasha?" Sota says "Why are-"

"Back off, kid," I say. "I came for Kagome."

I knock on her door, which is closed.

"Kagome? You in there?!"

Nothing.

"Kagome! Open the damn door!"

Still nothing.

"I'm coming in!" I say before opening the door.

She's not there.

"Inuyasha, Kagome went over to Sango's house," Sota says from behind me.

"Thanks kid," I say, then race downstairs, out the door, and to Sango's house.


Kagome's POV:

After I went home, I changed and then went over to Sango's house.

She can always make me feel better.

When she answered the door, I went right in.

"Kagome? What's wrong? Aren't you supposed to be out with Inuyasha...?"

"About that..." I say, sitting on the couch.

"Did he... Did he cancel?!"

"No..." Tears are streaming down my cheeks.

"Well what happened?!"

"He... He kissed..." I can't even finish my sentence. I put my head down on a pillow, crying.

"He kissed someone else?!"

I can't even respond. He doesn't even like Kikyo! Or didn't! Or... Said he didn't... Was he lying?! But he never lies... I never thought he could be lying the whole time...

"Kagome...?" Sango watches me cry.

After a while I sit up and see Sango sitting next to me.

"You ready to tell me what happened?" She asks.

I nod and explain what I saw.

"That... THAT TWO TIMING JERK IM GONNA KILL HIM!" Sango yells.

I almost laugh, but am too sad. "D-don't..." I say. "It's not your problem, it's mine..."

"But you're my best friend! Your problems are my problems."

"But-"

The doorbell rings.

Sango gets up and walks over to the door, then looks through the little peep hole thingy.

"It's Inuyasha," she says. "Should I answer it?"

"Yes... But don't let him see me..."

Sango gives me a how-am-I-supposed-to-do-that face, but opens the door anyways, just not all the way.

I bury myself into the pillow again.

"Where the hell is Kagome?!" I hear Inuyasha ask.

"Why do you need to know?!" Sango replies, angry.

"I just need to know!" He shouts.

"Not until you tell me why!"

"I need to see if she's ok!" Inuyasha yells.

"See for yourself," Sango says, opening the door wider.

Inuyasha runs over to me.

"Kagome!" He yells. "Why the hell did you run off?!"

I put my head up, my cheeks still wet from tears, and yell "BECAUSE YOU WERE KISSING KIKYO WHY ELSE HOW CAN YOU JUST SNEAK AWAY FROM ME AND GO KISS YOUR EX YOU TWO TIMER!"

Then I start crying again.

"Ka... Kagome..." Inuyasha says. "You really thought I kissed Kikyo? She basically forced me I didn't have a choice, I wouldn't kiss her voluntarily for a million dollars!"

But I don't feel well... I don't answer him, and I feel queasy... The world is spinning...

What's going on?

My head drops onto the pillow, and all I see is black.


I might write the next chapter today I'll have to see. Please review!
