DISCLAIMER: I do not own inuyasha.

CHAPTER FOUR

Kagome sat at the steering wheel, talking. In truth, that was all she'd done since she and Kikyou had driven away from the mall half and hour ago. She talked...and talked...and talked.

Normally Kikyou didn't mind her friend's eergetic chattering, but now, with Sesshoumaru's rejection still fresh on her mind, (After all it had only been the day before.) she just wasn't in the mood. She turned the dial on the cars radio tuning in to her favourite station.

"...Break your neck, come on

Bang your head til you start to

break your neck..."

The voice of Busta Rhymes interrupted Kagome's bickering. Well it did until she raised her voice ubove the music.

Kikyou smiled wikedly as she imagined Kagome doing just that.

Kikyou sighed to herself. Does she ever shut up? She listened to Kagome fire of a few more sentences. Apparantly not.

Kagome pulled the car to a stop. Kikyou reached for the door handle. Suddenly she froze, smile slidding off her face when she saw at which house they had stopped.

"Err.. Kagome," she said uncertainly. " What are we doing here?" At Sesshoumaru's house?

"I...uh...have to get my sweater," kagome said . "I forgot it here." She blushed slightly.

Kikyou felt as if the breath had just been knocked out of her. Kagome and Sesshoumaru ? Her Sesshoumaru? Not fair! First Inu yasha and now Sesshoumaru. UHhhhhh...would she necer stopped. The dirty little man stealer.

Her gaze narrowed in on Kagome's retreating back.

The Bitch had to die!

She climbed out of the car, her eyes searching the ground for just the right...

Ahhhhhhh...there it is.

Kikyou picked up a fist sized rock. PERFECT.

She threw the rock at Kagome.

BOOP!

It hit the girl at the back of her head.

DOOP!

Kagome fell to the ground, blood gushing out of the wound. Smiling, Kikyou walked over to the nearly lifeless body and kicked it, taking an alomost sadistic pleasure as Kagome writhed and moaned in pain.

Kikyou smirked. You take my man...i take your life.

Die Bitch! Die...!

"Kikyou? Aren't you coming in?" Kagome's voice snapped her out of her daydream.

"Oh...uh..right," she stepped out of the car.

"What are you doing?" She yelled inwardly at herself. "Don't go in there!"

But her body seemed to have a mind of its own, leaving her with no choice but to continue walking toward the door. I cant help it, she admitted to herself, I need to see him in his own home one last time...

But of course, it wouldn't hurt if she somehow managed to screw things up between those two.

DING DONG! DING DONG!

Kikyou waited with Kagome for someone to open the door. Not just anyone of course, sesshoumaru.

This is it, Kikyou thought gloomily, He's going to open that door and see her here. And then he'll kiss he. Gather her into him arms and kiss her .The way i want him to be kissing me. It's not fair! The look she gave Kagome could have peeled the paint off walls. And then, she added bitterly, they'll no doubt go up to his room to search for her "sweater".

The door swung open. The air wooshed out of Kikyou's lungs. It wasn't Sesshoumaru standing before her. It was InuYasha.

Kikyou's mind raced. What was Inuyahsa doning here? Visiting? NO. Kagome didn't seem surprised to see him there so why was he there? Unless...

Here eyes zoomed in on his hair. Of course...Stupid..Stupid... Stupid! how could i have been so blind? That hair! That remarkable hair. Kikyou groaned inwardly at her own asininity.They're related! Probably even brothers.Realization suddenly dawned. So that would mean that it was really Inuyasha who would be "sweater-searching" with Kagome.

Kikyou could have danced with joy. He was all hers again. Well...sort of...

She followed Inuyasha and Kagome into the house glancing anxiouslly about for a glimpse of Sesshoumaru. He was no where to be seen. She tried to hide her disappointment. Maybe he was just in another room.

"...for my sweater," Kagome was saying.

Inuyasha looked blank,"Your...?" Understanding flaired in his eyes, "Oh, your sweater! It's ..uh... in my room." He turned to Kikyou not quite meeting her eyes. "We'll be back i a sec. You can watch t.v. or what ever while we search for the sweater."

With that he grabbed Kagome's hand and the two fled upstair together.

Kikyou watched them go somewhat amused.

It's just as well that we broke up she mused. We knew so little about each other, I never knew where he lived or that he had a sister. And certainly not that he had a brother!

Sighing, Kikyou went into the sitting room and turning on the television there, she began flicking listlessly through the channels thinking about Sesshoumaru.

TEN MINUTES LATER...

Thoroughly bored, she decided to go into the kitchen to look for something to eat. Searching the upboards, she finally found a bag of chips.

PERFECT! Kikyou thought, trying to open the bag. Now if onlyI could get the bloody thing to open...

She was still struggling when she walked out of the kitchen and ran smack into a wall.

Atleast she thought it was a wall until it reached out to prevent her from stumbling backwards.

Kikyou looked up to apologize, but all thoughts of apologizing...all thoughts, period... when her eyes met Sesshoumaru's golden eyes.

The bag of chips fell unnoticed to the floor.

Without meaning to or even thinking about it, she took a small step forward effectively closing the small gap between their bodies. Before he could react, she placed her hands on his shoulders, and pushing herself up onto the tips of her toes, pressed her lips softly against his.

"Kiss me," she murmured against his lips.
