Life was getting better for Kagome. The pain of falling in love with Sesshomaru had gone down just enough that it didn't make her cry anymore. Recently they were getting closer, more comfortable with each other. So close that they were in a way joined at the hip when they had a class together. The only problem for Kagome was that when out of class it was as if he didn't know her. During her music class, Kagome was sitting at a desk far down the back. Hiding down the back never worked when the wolf, Koga was there. Kagome couldn't figure out why Koga was even in music, he couldn't play an instrument and he most definitely couldn't sing. Koga had liked her for a very long time and it always annoyed and put her off. Currently he was lying on the desk in front of her in the most cliché "sexy" position (in his case not sexy). While sitting there, trying to ignore Koga another guy she remembered was a friend with her ex Naraku showed up.
"Hey didn't you date Naraku last year?" Came his dark voice.
"Yeah I did…" Kagome hated admitting that she had anything to do with him but she wasn't going to lie.
" I heard you two had sex. Hah what a slut" by now a few others that also knew Naraku had gathered 'round and hearing what had been said also laughed. Eyes glistening with tears of painful memories she turned her head away and held them in as much as possible.
"No… I didn't." She always tried to explain what had happened but no one believed her. The Teacher walked in and announced it was time to go. Immediately Kagome got up and did a bee line towards the door. Once out she hid her face as the tears ran freely down her face. What a horrible person. Walking up the stairs, that she conveniently forgot Sesshomaru hung around during lunch, she heard a voice call out to her.
"Hey, Kagome!" Pausing she turned to the place she heard the voice. Standing just below her was Sesshomaru. His eyes held concern.
"Yeah?" she mumbled trying to hide from him, the fact she was crying.
"What's wrong?" his voice was soft as he asked and that was enough for the tears to flow even stronger. It hurt to know people saw her as Naraku's trash.
"Come down here" he said with eyes that shone with curiosity and concern. Silently she followed his request and found herself at the bottom of the stairs again with Sesshomaru in front of her.
"Now tell me what's wrong" It wasn't a question it was a demand and she felt compelled to answer. Sucking in a deep breath she recounted what was said in her music class. After that they talked for a little while until he had to go back to Kagura who had been watching them the whole time. Waving goodbye Kagome went on her way to hang with the friends that she didn't even want anymore. With her heart broken and lodged in her throat, she realised if others saw her as the spider's trash then Sesshomaru most likely does too and that made her lose any hope that he would maybe one day return her feelings.
