Secrets

Chapter 4

Inuyasha's POV

A certain white haired hanue was sitting in his favorite tree still when morning came. He had been bruting about over what Kagome had said the night before. He had decided that she was a nutcase and had no idea what she was saying. But he was still worried that maybe, by some slim chance, that wasn't it.

He decided that he would go and get her after she had a chance to go to, what she called, school. If he didn't wait and went now he knew that he would be thrown into the ground, by what he was suspecting to be, her favorite word. Too bad he didn't know how wrong he was.

Kagome's POV

Kagome walked slowly through the halls of her school. When she finally got to her first hour her friends where overjoyed to see her.

"Kagome!" They all shouted walking over to her desk.

"I'm so happy to see you guys!" She said in a falsely cheery voice. The others opened their mouths to reply but they were cut off by the bell. Everyone ran to take their seats and Eri took her usual one behind Kagome.

"I'm surprised you came to school today." Eri told her leaning forward and somewhat confused.

"Why?" Kagome asked confusedly. They couldn't possibly know about her father. She started to panic thinking that maybe someone had found out about him and what he did.

"Because yesterday I called your house and your grandpa said that you had pink eye. Your not still contagious are you?!?!" She asked in a worried voice.

"No…uuummm…." Kagome tried to think of some excuse. "Well you see….ummm…" she was saved from answering the question because at that moment Hojo took his seat to her right.

"Hey Higorashi!" Hojo called as he started to take out his books and stopped as soon as he notice Kagome sitting next to him.

Kagome gave an inward groan "Oh, hi Hojo." She had no idea why but Hojo insisted on following her and talking to her every day she came to school.

"I heard you were sick again yesterday. Are you all right?" He asked her in a concerned tone.

"Yeah. I was." She replied shortly trying to think of some way to get him away from her before he shoved some new strange cure at her. But at that moment the teacher walked into the room and she was saved.

The rest of the day went by quickly with not very much going on. Except Hojo gave her a bag of some strange roots that were suppose to do….. something.

After school

Kagome walked slowly home from school. She was scared about what she had decided to do when she got home. She decided that she would go upstairs and grab her stuff immediately. Her father shouldn't be home yet so it shouldn't be much trouble. She knew that she had to get out before it was too late. She stopped walking for a minute to sit down on the bench and tried to come up with a story to tell Inuyasha. She had to explain why she was coming back so early. She couldn't just jump through the well and expect the group not to wonder. Maybe she could tell them she didn't have any homework. No, that wouldn't work because she was going to take it with her to get it done. As she sat there contemplating what she would tell them, she heard something go off in her head. It was back again.

'No one really cares about you.'

"No" Kagome whispered, tears beginning to form in her eyes. She tried to get it out of her head but she couldn't. Over and over it played. She got up from the bench, tears falling from her eyes and ran. She ran as fast as she could. She had to leave. She couldn't take it anymore. She was starting to crack. Kagome ran as fast as she could up the steps to her house ripped the door open and flung herself into the through not looking where she was going. The result was that she ran into something big and solid. She fell backwards. She closed her eyes and braced herself to hit the floor. But it never came. Slowly she opened her eyes and looked up to see that a certain white haired hanue had caught her.

Thanx! Now please R&R
