Chapter 4, A Stroll Down Memory Lane

Kagome sat on her bed, looking through her scrapbook remembering the good times with Kikyo. She stopped and looked at one picture in particularly. It was a picture of her, Kikyo, Sango, Miroku, and Inuyasha.

Inuyasha's arms were around Kagome and Kagome was kneeling on the ground. Kagome had her arms around Kikyo who was sitting on the ground. Sango was leaning on Kagome with her arm around her shoulders, and Miroku was standing next to Inuyasha with his arm on Inuyasha's shoulders.

Kagome, Sango, and Kikyo were wearing their maroon softball uniforms. There were three mitts, three balls, and three bats strewn across the grass. They had just won their last game.

FLASHBACK

It was the last Inning and their team was up to bat. There were 2 outs and they were down by 2. The score was 15 to 13. If Kikyo hit a homer, than they would be tied, then Kagome could take the win, taking them up to 1 point over.

"KIKYO! KIKYO! KIKYO!" The team shouted from the dugout as Kikyo walked up to home plate with a bat in hand.

"Come on Kikyo! Take me home!" Sango said from 3rd base.

Kikyo looked at Sango and glanced back at Kagome who was next in line.

"You can do it Kikyo!" Kagome said and nodded to her.

Kikyo got in her stance and waited for the ball to come. She watched it hit her bat as she swung. She dropped the bat and took off running. She passed 1st and 2nd and 3rd. The 2nd baseman had the ball and was throwing to home as Kikyo slid to the base.

"SAFE!" the umpire said and Kikyo grinned standing up, out of breath.

Kikyo walked to the dugout and brushed the dirt off. Kagome walked up to bat.

"Our homerun hitter's up to bat! She's gonna give the ball a whack! You betta scoot ya booties back! Wayyyy back! All the back!" Her team chanted as Kagome got in her stance and waited for the ball to come.

She stepped back as the ball came and almost hit her.

"Ball!" The umpire said as Kagome walked up to the plate and got ready to hit the ball, again.

Kagome watched as the ball and the bat connected and she ran, watching the ball fly over to the fence. She jogged to home plate, passing 1st, 2nd, and 3rd bases. About two steps away from home plate, she saw a ball fly past her head and she slid.

"SAFE!" the umpire said as she stood up and dusted herself off, grinning the whole time.

They had won the game. Her team ran out of the dugout and hugged Kagome. They won the championship. They hoisted her up on their shoulders along with Kikyo and Sango.

END FLASHBACK

Kagome flipped to the next page and looked at the last picture of them and Kikyo. It had her, Rin, Sango, and Kikyo. Rin was about 17, and the other three were 10. Rin was sitting on a park bench and Sango was in front of Rin. Rin was playing in Sango's hair. Kikyo sat in front of Sango and Sango played with Kikyo's hair. Kagome was in front of Kikyo and Kikyo was playing with Kagome's hair.

FLASHBACK

Rin sat down on the bench and Sango sat in front of her, Kikyo in front of Sango and Kagome in front of Kikyo. Rin was playing with Sango's hair. She was braiding it. Sango was braiding Kikyo's hair and Kikyo was braiding Kagome's hair. They finished braiding each other's hair.

"Rin-chan, who will braid your hair?" Kagome said and sat down next to Rin.

"Would you like to braid it?" Rin said to Kagome and Kagome nodded her head.

"Okay." Rin said and sat down in front of Kagome.

Kagome picked up some hair and tried to braid Rin's hair. Kagome frowned at the hair. This wasn't going to be easy. Kikyo noticed this and walked up behind Kagome.

"Let me show you Kagome-chan." She said taking Kagome's hands in hers.

She delicately picked up the hair and weaved it in and out into a French braid. She pulled her hands away from Kagome's and watched her friend braid Rin's hair gracefully. Kikyo smiled in triumph.

"Thanks Kikyo-chan!" Kagome said cheerfully and looked at her masterpiece.

Kikyo and Sango suppressed a giggle.

"You're welcome Kagome-chan." Kikyo said.

END FLASHBACK

(SWITCHING TO KIKYO)

Kikyo was looking through her scrapbook and stopped at a picture of her and Kagome. They were standing on the beach. Kagome had her arms wrapped around Kikyo's waist and her chin on Kikyo's shoulder. They were about 12 at the time. They stood behind a huge sandcastle. They spent all day making it.

'Oh Kagome… I miss you.' She thought as she looked at the picture.

FLASHBACK

"Kikyo, Kagome, Stand in front of your sand castle. We'll take a picture of it!" Kikyo's mom said as the two girls finished the sand castle.

"Yes mother." Kikyo said and stood just in front of it to the side and Kagome wrapped her arms around her cousin's stomach and set her chin on her shoulder. They smiled as the camera flashed.

END FLASHBACK

'Kagome…' she thought sadly as she flipped to the next page. It was the picture of their Championship softball game. It was of her, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, and Inuyasha.

Inuyasha's arms were around Kagome and Kagome was kneeling on the ground. Kagome had her arms around Kikyo who was sitting on the ground. Sango was leaning on Kagome with her arm around her shoulders, and Miroku was standing next to Inuyasha with his arm on Inuyasha's shoulders.

"KIKYO! KIKYO! KIKYO!" The team shouted from the dugout as Kikyo walked up to home plate with a bat in hand.

"Come on Kikyo! Take me home!" Sango said from 3rd base.

Kikyo looked at Sango and glanced back at Kagome who was next in line.

"You can do it Kikyo!" Kagome said and nodded to her.

Kikyo got in her stance and waited for the ball to come. She watched it hit her bat as she swung. She dropped the bat and took off running. She passed 1st and 2nd and 3rd. The 2nd baseman had the ball and was throwing to home as Kikyo slid to the base.

END FLASHBACK

'I think I'll call Kagome. She probably wont talk to me though.' Kikyo sighed as she picked up the phone and dialed Kagome's number.

'Hello. This is Kagome.' Kikyo heard Kagome say.

"Hi Kagome. It's Kikyo. Listen; before you hang up I just wanted to say I'm sorry. Can we start over?" Kikyo said into the phone waiting for a reply.

'Kikyo-chan. I was just thinking about you. Yea… it's okay. We can try to start again.' Kagome replied on the other end.

"I'm glad. Hey, you want to go get some fries or something?" Kikyo said as she heard shuffling on the other end.

'Sure.' Kagome replied on the other end and Kikyo sighed in relief.

"I'll pick you up in ten. Is that okay?" She said as she stood up.

'Yea. I'll see ya then Bye.' She heard Kagome say.

"Bye." Kikyo said and hung up.

She walked over to her closet and got dressed in a pair of blue jeans and a green shirt that said 'Naughty Girl' on it and she slipped on her green flip flops. She walked out of her door, grabbing her keys.

"Kaede, I'll be back in about an hour or 2." Kikyo said as she walked out of the door.

She got into her light blue mustang convertible and drove to Kagome's house. Five minutes later she arrived at Kagome's house and walked up to the door. She knocked and Kagome answered.

"Hey Kikyo-chan." Kagome said smiling and walked out the door.

"Hey. I am really sorry." Kikyo said as they walked down the shrine steps.

"Its alright. You know, Inuyasha hates you really bad." Kagome said giggling as she got in the car.

"Yea… I know… I feel really bad." Kikyo said as she got in and they buckled up the car. They drove for about 5 minutes in silence.

"Hey Kikyo-chan, I'm sorry about yesterday…" Kagome said as they stopped at a stoplight.

"It's okay Kagome." Kikyo said as the light changed green.

"Okay…" Kagome said as Kikyo turned on the radio.

'This next song is said 'Sorry' by Flaming Waters. Shaelyn wrote this song for her friend after her friend's boyfriend kissed her. It's dedicated to her friend.' The DJ said as the song began.

You say you're sorry

I know you are.

You repeat yourself,

I forgave you.

Just stop apologizing.

I know you're sorry,

And I forgave you.

Say not a thing,

Let me say something.

Let me say I'm sorry.

I'm not one to say it,

I just want to say I'm sorry.

Don't you worry,

Can you forgive me?

Be my friend again…

Save me…

Be my refugee…

I'm just sorry…

Just stop apologizing.

I know you're sorry,

And I forgave you.

Say not a thing,

Let me say something.

Let me say sorry.

Just stop apologizing.

I know you're sorry,

And I forgave you.

Say not a thing,

Let me say something.

Let me say sorry.

"That was a good song…" Kagome said as they arrived at the restaurant.

"Yea. It's just like us." Kikyo said as she turned off the car and got out.

They walked into the restaurant and sat at a booth. They waited until a waitress came over and they ordered some cheese fries.

"Hey, you remember when Rin would bring us here and get cheese fries?" Kagome said Kikyo as the waitress came back 5 minutes later with their fries.

"Yea." Kikyo said and started to east her fries.

FLASHBACK

"Kagome, Kikyo, want to go get some fries?" Rin said them.

"Yea!" The 9 year olds said in unison, giggling.

"Get in the car. Lets go." Rin said and they got in the car and drove off.

They got to the restaurant and went inside. They sat at a booth and ordered cheese fries. The fries came and they started to eat.

"Hey, Kagome-chan, you got some ranch on your nose." Kikyo said as she giggled.

"Where?" Kagome said as she went cross-eyed.

"There." Kikyo said as she wiped her finger on Kagomes nose, wiping the ranch off her nose.

"Thanks!" Kagome said and ate another fry.

"Your welcome." Kikyo said and finished her fries.

END FLASHBACK

"Hey, Kikyo-chan, you got ranch on your nose." Kagome giggled.

"Where?" Kikyo said and looked down her nose.

"There." Kagome said as she reached across and wiped the ranch off her nose.

"Thanks Kagome." Kikyo said getting a slight feeling of déjà vu.

"Déjà vu anyone?" Kagome said and giggled as she finished her fries.

"Yea." Kikyo said and finished eating her fries.

"Ready to go?" Kikyo said Kagome.

"Yea." Kagome said and left the tip.

Kikyo went up to pay the bill. They walked outside and got into the car.

"Hey, lets go to the park." Kagome said as they buckled up and left the parking lot.

"Ok." Kikyo said and drove to the park.

They arrived about 2 minutes later and got out. They walked along and sat down at a bench.

"Hey, remember when we French braided each others hair?" Kikyo said as she watched the children play.

"Yea. I tried to French braid Rin's but you had to help me." Kagome said and giggled.

"Kagome? Will you French braid my hair?" Kikyo said as she watched the other girl nod.

"Sure." Kagome said and Kikyo got up and sat on the ground in front of Kagome.

Kagome gathered a section of hair and braided her hair gracefully. About 5 minutes later Kagome finished.

"Wow! That was fast!" Kikyo said and got up.

"Yea… I usually French braid Rin and Sango's hair." Kagome said and stood up.

"So you've had a lot of practice?" Kikyo said.

"Yea. Will you braid mine?" Kagome said and sat down as Kikyo nodded.

Kikyo started to braid her hair and finished it about five minutes later.

"Wow! Let me guess, Kaede has you braid her hair too." Kagome said when she finished.

"Yea. Hey, Kaede wanted to see you the other day. Want to come see her?" Kikyo said as they stood and walked over to the car.

"Sure!" Kagome said as they got in and buckled up.

They drove to Kikyo's house and got out. They walked up to the door and went inside.

"Kaede, I'm home." Kikyo said as they walked into the kitchen.

"Kikyo!" Kaede said as she walked into the Kitchen.

"Hey Kaede." Kagome said as she was embraced by the 14 year old.

"Kagome-chan!" Kaede said and pulled back.

"How have you been?" Kagome said.

"Great!" Kaede replied.
