Chapter 10: Life Doesn't Always Have An Outline

SMACK!

The echoing sound filled the house as Kagome and Inuyasha looked up from their video game. "MIROKU YOU"RE SUCH A PERVERT!" Inuyasha just shook his hand and went back to playing while Kagome giggled. "I don't think that will ever get old," Kagome said as she started to play again. Only for the two to be interrupted a couple minutes later when Sango stormed into the room; Miroku right behind her. "Come on Sango don't be mad, I was just wiping the bug of your butt!" Sango whipped around and glared at him, "Bug? There was no bug you pervert! You're just a stupid lecher!" Sango then proceeded to storm out of the room, a forlorn looking Miroku following close behind. Kagome chuckled again, "Nope that will never get old."

About an hour later the couple came out of the game room and into the living room, only to see the previously fighting couple on the couch; snuggling as they watched tv. Smiling Kagome cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled, "UP AND ATOM!" the said couple fell off the couch, turning to Kagome with shocked expressions. Smiling brighter Kagome said, "Well since we haven't been fighting demons as frequently as we used to, I think it's time to train a little bit. Don't you think so?"

The three nodded, clapping her hands together Kagome said, "Ok then! Meet in the backyard in 15 minutes!" As she was turning away Sango said, "And call Kouga, Ayame, and Rin, so they can start fighting too!" Nodding Kagome walked off to her room.

After calling them and getting dressed in a pair of blue basketball shorts (which happens to be the pair Inuyasha has been looking for for the past week) and a brown tank top, Kagome came downstairs to see Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sango already outside. Inuyasha, in red basketball shorts and a grey wife-beater was practicing swinging his sword around. Sango in her green Nike running shorts and a pink tank top and sports bra, was stretching as she practice her hand on hand combat. Miroku in a purple basketball shorts with a plain white shirt was meditating.

Seeing her come out of the house Inuyasha's mouth dropped, "HEY! I've been looking for those since last week!" Kagome giggled as she tightened the shorts around her small waist, thanking god that she wore a pair of grey soffees underneath just in case. "Well you're not getting them back." Kagome said as she walked over to Sango, hearing Inuyasha mumbling about stupid wenches on the way. "Hey Sango, I need to practice hand-on-hand. Will you help me?" Smiling as she put her hair up in a high ponytail Sango said, "Of course." "Great!" Kagome said as she grabbed the elastic from her wrist and tied her waist length hair up in a ponytail.

Twenty minutes later three figures walked around the house to the backyard; only to see Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, and Kagome hard at work. Kagome and Sango were sparing against one another; punching and blocking as sweat ran down their faces. Miroku was working on strengthening his ofuda (little pieces of paper he throws at the demons in the show) with a powerful ritual while Inuyasha was smashing threw the dummys Kagome had made.

All three of them stopped at the sight of their other three friends; Rin was in a white t-shirt and orange soffees, Ayame was in a black underarmour shirt with lavender soffees and Kouga was in brown basketball shorts and a grey t-shirt. Wiping the sweat off her forehead Kagome walked over to them. "Hey guys, as you can see were just working on a couple things we need improvement on. So join in wherever." Kouga grinned, his teeth shining in the night light. "Hey Yash, how bout a little spare?" Inuyasha grinned as he put his sword away. "Bring it on."

Ayame and Rin looked at Sango and Kagome, "Can we spare with you guys?" Ayame said, "Yeah, it's been a while since I've fought." Rin said. The two others nodded, "That works. Rin, why don't you and me fight; demon slayer against demon slayer. And Ayame and Kagome, demon versus priestess." Sango said, then added, "This is hand on hand, no extra powers or anything. We need to know what it's like to work without weapons."

Ayame and Rin's eyes widened, "You guys have weapons? I thought you just controlled the elements?" Sango and Kagome laughed, "We have weapons, which help control the elements, we- well me, Miroku, and Inuyasha- are used to using our weapons more so we need to start working on hand on hand combat just in case something happens to our weapons, plus we still have to work on controlling the elements without weapons. Only Kagome can do that. Nodding Rin said, "Ok then, well what are we waiting for? Let's start!"

All 7 started to train, (A.N The gang is only referring to the four[Kagome, Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku]) Falling to her knees Kagome took a deep breath, "Damn Ayame, you fight hard." Ayame tiredly giggled as she fell next to Kagome, Sango and Rin already on the ground. Miroku walked over to the tired girls, he had only been meditating. "How are you girls feeling?" He asked as he handed them each a drink. Taking them they drank the water down.

Kagome was about to say something to Ayame when she saw her looking at Kouga, smirking Kagome got an idea; she just had to wait for the guys to get over here. 30 minutes later—stupid demons never get tired—Inuyasha and Kouga walked over, sweating from head to toe. Looking at her watch Kagome saw it was only 7:30, "Hey guys, since we did such a great job today why don't we go celebrate!"

"Sure," "Ok," "Whatever," "Keh," "Yeah," the others said, Kagome smiled, "It can be like a triple date! Me and Yash, Sango and Miroku, Rin and Sesshomaru, and Ayame, you and Kouga can hang!" Kouga suddenly knew what she was doing, Smiling he said, "Ok, that works. Lets all go take showers and meet somewhere." "I say Longhorns!" Kagome and Rin shouted, everyone laughed and nodded as they all got up and parted their ways.

Walking up to her room Kagome turned on her shower, letting the steam fill the room as she peeled her clothes off. Steeping in the steaming shower Kagome let her thoughts wonder as the water washed away the dirt. "Hmmm, I should be able to get Ayame and Kouga together, with some help from Sango." Kagome closed her eyes as she rubbed the shampoo into her hair, her thoughts drifting to Sango and Miroku. "Those two make the funniest couple," she thought as she giggled, "Kami, grant them the chance to be with one another forever."

Kagome remembered looking at them earlier, the love in both of their eyes very apparent. Then Keade's words came to her head. "Kagome, any one who doesn't see the love ye two have for one another is a fool, a sad fool." Kagome's thoughts suddenly switched to her and Inuyasha's relationship.

The many ups and downs they have been through together. "God, so many things have happened since we got together." Her thoughts drifted to that summer, when they met, when he found her at the tree, crying due to the loss of her father. When she showed him the jewel and told him the sorrows of her life, when they fought constantly with one another, when he saved her from Naraku's clutches…when he told her he loved her….when she found out she was going to be his mate…

Washing out the shampoo she remembered the talks with both Inutaisho and Izayoi. As she focused more on Izayoi's she thought, "I totally forgot about the test…when is it supposed to happen? And will I be able to pass it?" Kagome shook her head as she stepped out of the shower. "I will pass that test, but right now. I have to get Kouga and Ayame together!"

Next thing Kagome knew they were at Longhorns, sitting in a huge booth. Kagome sat next to Inuyasha, Miroku next to Sango, Rin next to Sesshomaru, and Kouga next to Ayame. Leaning on her elbows so only the group would hear her Kagome said, "I've been thinking and it would be safer if you guys had weapons, wither or not your demon or human. I talked to Sesshomaru and he knows someone who can make weapons, strong ones, considering what we fight and you can't control the elements like us."

Nodding at Sesshomaru Kagome signaled him to start. "Totosai has been a family friend for a long time so I know he'll do it. Rin you already have weapons from him so we just need weapons for Ayame and Kouga."

Kagome continued, "Ayame, you, Kouga, Sango, Miroku, Rin, and Sesshomaru will be going to Totosai's to start making the weapons on Saturday." Kouga rose an eyebrow, "Where are you and Inuyasha going to be?" "Me and Inuyasha have to pick up Shippo tomorrow, and we're bringing him to the fair Saturday. We promised him a family day." Both of Kouga's eyebrows were hidden in his bangs. "Family time? Wait…who the hell is Shippo?"

Just as Kagome was going to answer her phone rang, holding a finger up she answered the phone. "Hello?...oh hey mom….what's wrong?...ok….put him on….hey Shippo, what's wrong honey?...Yes you're still coming over and yes we're still going to the fair….mhmm….well I got to go honey….mhmm….I love you too." Kouga just stared at Kagome, realizing that everyone except the gang was staring at her Kagome decided to explain. "During the summer we saved a little fox demon and kept him with us. He is staying with my mom but he calls me and Inuyasha mommy and daddy."

Everyone just nodded their heads, surprised. "So is everything cleared up?" Kagome asked with a big smile, everyone just laughed and they ordered their food. While they waited for their food, Kagome looked over to see Kouga and Ayame sneaking glances at each other. Smirking Kagome grabbed her phone and texted Kouga, "Just ask her out already! I mean seriously Kouga!" Getting the text Kouga looked up before replaying, "R U sure?" Kagome rolled her eyes but texted him back. "I swear Kouga if u don't ask her out tonight I will murder u!"

Just as the waiter brought their food Kouga nodded, smiling Kagome clapped her hands before digging into her food. Causing everyone except Kouga to look at her funny. As they ate they just laughed and talked, enjoying each others company. After paying the bill they all said bye to one other. Driving home in Miroku's truck the gang settled down, Sango and Kagome falling asleep against each other. Parking in the garage the two picked up their girlfriends; carrying the gently to their rooms.

Miroku placed Sango on her bed and tucked her in. Kissing her forehead gently he said, "Good night my beautiful Sango." As Inuyasha walked up the stairs Kagome cuddled into the warmth of his chest. He smirked as he used his hand to open the door, Kagome cuddled deep in his other. Pulling back her sheets he placed her down covering her up and kissing her lightly, "Night love," he whispered before walking out. Smiling as he heard Kagome whisper, "Night Yash."

Kagome woke up bright an early the next day, smiling as she got ready for school. After she got ready she grabbed her bag and walked to the kitchen, grabbing a bowl of cereal as she walked out to the car where all rest of the gang was. "Are you finally ready?" Miroku said as he started the car. Kagome rolled her eyes as she jumped in next to Sango. "Just step on it!"

The first couple periods went by fast as the day went on, and next thing Kagome knew they were at lunch. "So we're in 2nd and Kouga that it would be funny to throw snot rockets at the teacher and he ended up getting some in Suzy Rochelle's hair!" Everyone laughed at the table at Kouga's child ness. Suddenly the schools gossip-Yumi Yashiatamito- came up to the table. "Haven't you guys heard!" everyone looked at her. "Heard what Yumi?" Sango asked,

"We have a new student back and-" the bell rang, efficiently cutting Yumi off as she ran to her table to go grab her bag for lunch. The group all looked at each other before shrugging it off, grabbing their stuff they all started to walk to their 5th periods. Not aware of the surprise they would be in for.

The tapping of her pencil was the only thing keeping Kagome out of la-la land when suddenly she felt an aura outside the classroom door. "It's definitely an aura of a miko, but I can't place it…" Kagome thought as she tried to place the aura with a face. There was a soft knock at the door, and out of the corner of her eyes Kagome saw Inuyasha tense up. Turning to look at him Kagome saw he was looking at the door. Turning to the door as it opened, Kagome's eyes widened.

Kagome's blood ran cold, she felt like she was looking in a mirror. Standing at the door was a young woman, wearing a white button up and a red skirt. Kagome could feel the girl's power rolling off of her, she was strong. Kagome shook her head and rubbed her eyes, trying to get a better look at the girl. Now that Kagome looked there were a couple differences. Were Kagome's skin was sun kissed, this mystery girl's skin was pale, a pretty porcelain color. The girl had long, straight, jet black hair, contrast to Kagome's wavy midnight hair. Looking at the girl's eyes Kagome could see that the brown orbs hold no warmth.

Suddenly the girl looks straight at Kagome and Kagome feels a shiver up her spine. Kagome was right, this girl's eyes were cold….almost…..almost dead. Turning to Inuyasha Kagome sees he looking straight at the mystery girl; his usual tan face was pale and tense. Grabbing his hand Kagome locked her fingers with his, Inuyasha instantly relaxed. Turning to Kagome he saw her smiling at him, the look in her eyes clearly telling him. "I'm right here, don't worry."

Little did the couple know the girl watched them interact, no emotion what's so ever on her face. She could tell that the other girl had powers, just like her. Turning away from the couple the girl rummaged in her bag for her schedule, feeling it against her fingers she wrapped her hand around it, grabbing it.

Inuyasha and Kagome looked at the girl as she walked over to the teacher, she handed the teacher her schedule. The teacher read it before smiling at the girl and announcing, "Class, I would like to introduce you to Kikyo Hiroshimita."

This time both Inuyasha and Kagome tensed up, their suspicions were right. Kagome just held onto Inuyasha's hands tighter. Feeling her hand around his Inuyasha suddenly smelt fear, quickly turning to Kagome he saw that her eyes were locked on Kikyo's form. Inuyasha could tell Kagome was trying to hold herself together; probably thinking about what happened between him and Kikyo. "Looks like it's time to tell her." Inuyasha thought as the bell rang, grabbing Kagome they walked out of the room and outside. Turning to Kagome Inuyasha saw that she was shaking, pulling her to him he said, "Kagome, don't worry ok? I'll tell you everything after school. Just go to class ok?"

Kagome nodded before looking up at him, "Please tell me you love me." She whispered, Inuyasha was startled but as he continued to look at the fear in her eyes he understood. "I love you Kagome, I love you and no other." Lifting her chin up he kissed her firmly. "Now go to class before you're late, love you." Inuyasha said as he kissed her again. Kagome smiled, feeling better now. "I love you too Inuyasha." She said as she walked to her next class.

Seeing Sango Kagome walked over to her, "You'll never guess who's here." "Who?" Sango asked, Kagome looked around before looking back at Sango. "Kikyo." "What? I thought she moved away?" "She did but I guess she came back," Kagome sighed as she sat down in her chair, placing her head on the desk she said, "With everything that's going on she just had to come back. Do I have that much bad luck?" Sango rolled her eyes as she laughed, "Kagome you're so dramatic," "Well it's true!" Kagome said as the teacher came in, looking at her friend again Kagome pouted for the rest of the class.

Walking into her last period Kagome groaned as she saw Kikyo talking to the teacher. Sitting down next to her friends Eri and Ayumi Kagome tried to get into their conversation but kept looking at Kikyo. "Okay class, we start our interior design project today. It will be a 60% grade so you better take it seriously." Mrs. Takimiko said, "Now I have already split you into groups," Kagome just thought in her head, "Don't' put me with Kikyo, don't put me with Kikyo…" " 1st is Kaika and Hatu, 2nd Eri and Ayumi,…" Kagome hope was slowing diminishing as Mrs. Takimiko paired people together. "Last but not least Kagome and Kikyo. You may spend the rest of your class discussing with you partner what you are going to do."

As everyone split into their groups Kagome walked over to Kikyo, "Hello, I'm Kagome and I'll be your partner." Kagome said as she looked down at Kikyo. Kikyo looked up, staring at her for a couple seconds before smiling. "Nice to meet you Kagome, I'm Kikyo." Shaking her hand Kagome saw that the smile didn't reach her eyes. Sitting next to the girl Kagome felt a tinge go up her spine when her aura got close to Kikyo's.

"What just happened?" Kagome thought as she grabbed her notebook and pen from her purse on the floor. Looking up from her crouched position Kagome saw the look of discomfort on Kikyo's face. "So she feels it too." Sitting up Kagome asked, "Is something wrong Kikyo?" Kikyo looked straight at her, freezing Kagome in her position. Suddenly Kagome felt cold….almost…lifeless; no matter how much she tried, she couldn't tear her eyes away from Kikyo's.

The bell suddenly rang, signaling the end of the day. Thanks to the sound Kagome was snapped out of her trance, quickly grabbing her stuff Kagome mumbled a quick goodbye to Kikyo and practically ran out of the room. Getting to the car first Kagome rested against it and sighed, "What the hell is wrong with me?" Kagome thought as she tried to gain her composure. Hearing the sound of footsteps Kagome looked up to see Sango and Miroku walking up to her.

"Hey Kags," They said as they reached her, "Hey" Kagome said as she tried to smile. "You ok?" Miroku said, worry crossing over his face. "I'm fine…just a lot has happened today." Kagome answered truthfully. Both Sango and Miroku nodded, knowing how touchy the Kikyo subject was. Hearing voices coming towards them the three looked to see Inuyasha and Kouga walking towards them, pushing one another. Rolling her eyes Kagome put her stuff in the car, feeling arms around her waist Kagome screamed when she was lifted in the air.

"Put me down!" Kagome screamed as she tried to move in the man's grasp. Looking over to Sango and Miroku Kagome saw Inuyasha standing there with a smirk on my face. "Kouga I swear if you don't put me down right now I will tell every one what happened in 6th grade!" Kagome was instantly put down, but not before a "Stupid women," floated to her ears. With a smirk on her face Kagome turned around and wrapped her arms around Kouga's neck. "I love you Kouga," Kagome said as she batted her eyelashes innocently.

Kouga just rolled his eyes before hugging her back. Leaning close to her ear he said, "Can I talk to you for a second?" Kagome nodded before grabbing his hand and pulling him over to someplace no one could hear them. "Whatcha need Kouga?" Kagome asked, happy to get her mind off of Kikyo. Looking around to make sure no one was listening Kouga said, "I asked Ayame out when I dropped her off at her house…." Kagome suddenly got excited, jumping up and down she whispered, "What did she say? What did she say?"

Chuckling at his best friends excitement Kouga said, "She said yes," "YAY!" Kagome yelled before jumping on Kouga; wrapping her legs around him she giggled. "Finally! You took long enough!" Putting her down Kouga laughed and said, "So I just wanted to tell you and to also say thanks, I really needed that push." Smiling Kagome kissed Kouga on the cheek, "Good, now go find your girlfriend! I have better things to do then to talk to you!" Rolling his eyes Kouga walked away, happy that he had such a great friend like Kagome.

Getting in the car Kagome saw that the gang was looking at her, "What?" She asked, looking at them. Inuyasha raised an eyebrow at her, "Are you ok?" Kagome giggled, "of course, why wouldn't I be?" "Then why were you freakin' out with Kouga?" "Oh!" Kagome said, a huge smile coming on her face. "Kouga asked Ayame out! And she said yes!"

"Finally, Ayame's been after him since 9th!" Sango said from the passenger seat. "Yeah," Inuyasha said while shaking his head, "Took the idiot long enough." Kagome glared at him and smacked him in the head. "OW! What was that for!" Inuyasha yelled, "That was for calling Kouga an idiot!" Kagome yelled back. "Well he took forever to ask her out!" "Ugh!" Kagome rolled her eyes, "You never even asked me out!"

Sango looked back at the fighting couple, "Inuyasha, you never asked her out?" Inuyasha stopped and looked at Sango sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck he said, "Well you see, after what happened that night I guess we just started going out. I really didn't see a reason to ask her out." Sango rolled her eyes as she sat back in her seat. "Idiot," she muttered as they continued the drive home.

Once they got home Kagome and Inuyasha got into Inuyasha's car to go pick up Shippo. Driving there Kagome looked at her boyfriend and decided to tease him. "So you just guessed we were going out?" Inuyasha stiffened, "Ah…uh…ye…" he sighed, "Kinda…" Kagome giggled at his expression, leaning forward she kissed him on the cheek. "You're lucky I love you." She said as they pulled up to the shrine.

Walking up to the porch, the door suddenly opened and Shippo rushed out. "Mommy! Daddy! You're here!" he screamed as he jumped into Kagome's arms. Kagome giggled as she pulled Shippo closer to her, "Hey Shippo, have you been good?" Shippo nodded his head furiously as Mrs. Higurashi came to the door. "Oh, Kagome, Inuyasha, you're here." Holding Shippo in one of her arms Kagome hugged her mother. "Hey mom, how have you, Souta, and Jii-chan been?"

"We've been good; Shippo here has been getting excited as this day got closer." Inuyasha chuckled as he gave Mrs. Higurashi a hug, which she gladly accepted. "Has Shippo been good for you?" the two young 'parents' asked, Mrs. Higurashi smiled at this. "He's been great, keeping his room clean, helping Souta keep his room clean." Kagome smiled at Shippo, "That's good, well we have to go. We have a big day tomorrow!" Both Inuyasha and Kagome hugged Mrs. Higurashi. "Bye mom" "Bye Mrs. Higurashi" "Bye grammy!" the three voiced as they got into Inuyasha's car and drove away.

Walking into the house Kagome brought Shippo into the living room, "Auntie Sango!" Shippo yelled as he ran over to Sango and jumped on her. "Hey Shippo" Sango giggled as she hugged the young fox kit. "Where's Uncle Miroku?" Shippo asked as he pulled away to look at her. "Um…I think he's upstairs in his room, you can go say hi if Kagome says its ok." Sango said as her and Shippo looked at Kagome. "Can I mommy?" Shippo asked.

Kagome smiled, "Sure, but don't run up the stairs." Shippo nodded as he walked up the stairs. Kagome giggled and shook her head as she walked over to the pantry and grabbed ingredients for dinner. "Sango, do you want to help me make dinner?" "Sure," Sango said as she got up and walked over to Kagome. A couple minutes later Shippo came downstairs and sat in front of the tv. "Shippo," Kagome called from the kitchen as she looked into the living room, "Did you find Miroku?" "Yeah," Shippo said, "He was reading some magazine with a lady on it."

Both Sango and Kagome froze, looking at each other Kagome said, "Can you tell me what it was called?" They waited a couple seconds while Shippo flipped thru channels before he said, "I think it said Playboy." "I'm gonna kill him," Sango muttered as she cut the chicken, with a really big knife. Kagome just shook her head as she put the scalloped potatoes in the oven. While the food cooked Kagome and Sango sat with Shippo and watched tv. After eating the gang all went to sleep, they had a big day tomorrow.

Waking up the next morning Kagome got ready, just putting on a simple white sundress and some sandals. After getting Shippo ready and waiting for Inuyasha they were off to the fair. About an hour and a half later they arrived at the fair, Shippo practically jumping up and down in his seat. The first thing they did was the bumper cars, Inuyasha and Shippo against Kagome. Kagome raced around the track, laughing as she ran from Inuyasha and Shippo.

After the bumpers the rode the graviton, as the ride started to move they got stuck to the side, Shippo laughing the whole time as he managed to turn himself upside down. "Daddy! Try this, I bet you can't do it!" Never one to say no Inuyasha turned himself upside down, but as he laughed at Shippo he didn't notice the ride was slowing down. Causing him to fall on his head, Shippo laughed as they got off the ride. Inuyasha grumbling about being trick by a little kid, Kagome just giggled as they went to grab something to eat.

The rest of the day went by fast; they did everything in the fair, even ate a whole bunch of fair food. The only thing they had left was the Ferris wheel. Getting on it they slowly made it to the top, as it stopped an announcement came on. "The Fireworks Spectacular is about to start! All rides will be stopped until the fireworks are over." "Looks like we're stuck up here." Inuyasha said as Shippo latched himself to the window, waiting for the fireworks. "Well at least it's a good spot," "Kagome said.

Suddenly the fireworks started, Shippo ooohing and awwwing everyone of them. Even Kagome was mesmerized by their beauty, but Inuyasha was looking at a whole other beauty…..Kagome. "Kagome," Inuyasha said, "Yes Inuyasha?" she said looking at him. "Will you be my girlfriend?" the question took Kagome by surprise, but she was suddenly filled with a warm sensation going from her head all the way down to her toes. She smiled, "Of course."

A huge smile appeared on Inuyasha's face, grabbing Kagome he kissed her gently as the main part of the fireworks went off. In both their heads and the fair. Shippo turned back to see Inuyasha and Kagome kissing, turning back around Shippo smiled. His mommy and daddy loved each other. And that's all that matters.

After the fireworks the Ferris wheel started to move. Getting off the ride Inuyasha grabbed Shippo's right hand and Kagome grabbed the left as they started to walk to the parking lot. Suddenly Kagome felt a familiar aura and stiffened but continued to walk. Shippo looked up to see a woman that looked like Kagome looking at them. "Daddy? Why is that lady looking at us? Why does she look like mommy?"

Both Inuyasha and Kagome froze, looking around they saw Kikyo staring right at them, looking between Shippo and them. Suddenly a group of people passed in front of her and when they dispersed, Kikyo was gone. Shaken up Kagome picked Shippo up and they walked to the car. Once inside they drove away, hoping to forget about that unwanted memory.

Only a couple minutes into the ride Shippo fell asleep, but Inuyasha and Kagome stayed silent. Parking the car in the garage Kagome said, "I'll bring him upstairs." Inuyasha just nodded as he opened the door for Kagome. Walking up to her room Kagome pulled her covers back and gently placed Shippo down. Covering him up Kagome gently kissed his forehead and walked out of the room.

Walking up to Inuyasha's room Kagome hesitated. "Come on Kagome, you have to do this!" She thought as she opened the door. There, on his bed was Inuyasha, his head down. "Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered, wondering if he was asleep. Slowly Inuyasha lifted his head up and patted the spot next to him. After Kagome sat down Inuyasha said, "You're here so I can tell you what happened between me and Kikyo right?" Kagome nodded, scared to hear what he was about to say. Grabbing her hand Inuyasha looked up at her, "Come on we're going on the balcony." Outside Kagome leaned against the balcony, "Ok….so tell me…" Inuyasha looked at Kagome for a minute before looking at the stars.

"I met Kikyo in 8th grade, at first we were just friends. But then I asked her out, and she said yes. We went out for about 1 year and a half when she told me she was moving. We were both devastated, we were always inseparable. After talking we both decided we would stay together and visit each other. It was really hard to let her leave, but I knew I would still see her."

"Over the next 6 months I visited her and she visited me. No matter how much I tried I had a feeling we were drifting apart. On our two year anniversary I went to her house to visit her and…I found her with another guy." Inuyasha stopped and took a breath, "when she saw me she didn't do the whole 'oh Inuyasha he forced himself on me, but I only want you' thing. She just continued to kiss him before saying it's over."

"I walked out of that house broken, I didn't talk to Miroku for weeks, wouldn't go near Sango for 3 months. I was weary of everyone, especially new people….but then….then you came." Inuyasha said as he looked at Kagome, Kagome was shocked by the broken look in his eyes. Suddenly there was a wetness on her cheeks…she was crying… "…Inuyasha…" she whispered, taking a slow step towards him.

Gently she place her hand on his cheek, not taking his eyes off of her he leaned into her hand; that broken look still in his eyes. "Why didn't you tell me?" Kagome whispered, trying to search his eyes. "I didn't want you to worry about it, I put it behind me." Inuyasha said, Kagome suddenly got angry, "Put it behind you? Put it behind you? Inuyasha, you're not over it yet! She hurt you and you didn't do anything! You didn't tell anyone so they could help you!...heal you…."

Kagome turned away, trying to stop the tears that flowed down her cheeks. Turning back to him she whispered, "You're broken….Inuyasha…..You're broken…" The look in her eyes killed Inuyasha; the hand that was still on his cheek gently ran up and down. "I want to heal you Inuyasha…but…but I don't think I can…" The distressed and helpless look intensified in Kagome's eyes. "I can't help you heal….because I'm broken myself."

A.N Ok I'm very nervous about this chapter, the way I originally planned it, the fair was going to be after the "Kikyo talk" but when I finished the Kikyo talk I suddenly had the urge to end it there. But I still wanted the fair to be in this chapter, so I put it before and I'm really nervous to see if I made the right decision. Thanks to the change in my plan I came up with the perfect name for this chapter. "Life doesn't always have and outline" Plz review and tell me how you like this chapter, I didn't get a lot of reviews last chapter and that greatly saddened me. So plz review! ^-^ Until next time!

Adios!
