Graceful Mistake

Chapter 29

Love Wounds


Kagome shook her head no. Inuyasha had just asked if she wanted anything from the mini store in the air port. They were getting ready to fly Souta back home. Just five more minutes before he was supposed to get on the airplane.

"No thank you." Kagome said as she ruffled Souta's hair.

"You want anything, kid?"

He thought about it. "How about three more days here?"

"Something I can get for two dollars or less?"

"Then a bag of Doritos." Inuyasha nodded his head before walking away. Kagome looked down at him. He smiled back up at her. "You promise you'll call more?" Kagome nodded her head. "And come see me as soon as you can?" She nodded her head once more.

"I told you, you'd be coming back for graduation and that's in a couple of months."

"I know..."

"Don't worry, You'll be calling me as soon as you get back. Right?"

"...Yea."

"Come on Souta, give me more of a happy response than that. Call me?" Kagome asked.

"...Maybe..."

"I'll miss you." Kagome said as she pulled him into his hundredth hug of the day.

"I'll miss you too." He mumbled.

Souta didn't want to leave his sister. He had been having fun with her, but he was also very worried about her. She looked horrible, like she was disappearing. When Inuyasha had told him about Kagome not sleeping and barely eating, he was completely shocked. Things had changed so much and he had only left a couple of months ago.

She didn't even eat much while he was there and it bothered him. He didn't want to leave until he was sure Kagome was completely okay.

"Nikko, Japan, boarding. Nikko Japan, boarding. Flight 354." The intercoms blared.

Kagome looked around. "Inuyasha's not back yet, come on, let's just go."

She began walking him to the plane. "You have all of your stuff right?"

"Yea."

"Toothbrush?"

"Yea."

"Clothes?" He nodded his head. "All of the sovereigns?"

"I have everything I promise." He said with a smile, cutting her off before she got started was easier than letting her go through a whole list of things he had to take back.

They stopped in front of the gates to the plane. Kagome pulled him into a hug. "I'll miss you so much! I can't wait until graduation. Thank Aunt Shiro for me."

"Okay." He gave his sister a kiss on the cheek. "Get more sleep, and eat more."

"I will."

"It's one thing to say it, but it's another to do it." Souta said pointedly.

"I'll be here to make sure she does that." Inuyasha said as he came up behind her and put his arm around her. He tossed Souta the bag of Doritos.

They did one of the crazy guy handshakes Kagome never really understood how to do. "Thanks, I'll call you guys later." He hefted his bag onto his shoulder. "Bye."

"Bye, I love you." Kagome said as she waved.

"Bye, lil' man."

They watched as Souta boarded the plane, and waited until the plane began flying off before walking to the car. Kagome smiled.

"I'm happy my brother visited."

"So am I, I finally had a worthy opponent to play me in video games."

Kagome lightly shoved him. "I'm not that bad at them."

"Yea, sure, and you're cooking isn't amazing." He said with sarcasm.

"I'll take that as a compliment." She said with a yawn. It was already nine at night. "Speaking of my cooking, what do you want for dinner?"

"Hmm...onigiri and dumplings."

"Why do you want that for dinner?"

"You asked, I answered."

Kagome shrugged her shoulders. "I guess we can eat that for dinner then." Kagome rolled her window down and felt the cool night breeze. "The stars look beautiful tonight."

The area where the airport was located was basically just road with a couple of lights here and there. Barely any lights, leaving the stars to shine bright.

"Why don't we eat dinner in the back of the complex near that lake?" He asked.

"Sit on the dirty floor, get attacked by mosquitoes, and have about a hundred bugs trying to eat my food with me? Why not, sounds fun."

"Good." Kagome leaned back in her chair and looked up at the sky through the roof top of the car. It felt like forever since she had even thought about looking at a star.

Inuyasha twirled Kagome's hair in his hand. He loved how soft it was.

They carried on a small conversation on the way home. When Kagome got home she started cooking immediately.

"Inuyasha, can you run into my room and grab a hair tie for me?" She asked as she washed her hands at the sink.

"Sure." He grabbed a pink hair bow before walking into the kitchen and coming behind Kagome. He lightly grabbed her hair and put it into a low pony tail.

"Thanks." She took out oil. "This'll be done in no time."

He tied his own hair into a low pony tail and began washing his hands. "You're right about that, I'll work on the onigiri."

Kagome smiled. "Okay." She was happy that they were cooking together.

Inuyasha made the best onigiri Kagome had ever seen and tasted, it was even better than her own. Not only was the taste perfect, but he could also do cute designs on them. He turned on the radio. Wide Awake by Katy Perry was playing.

Inuyasha began washing the rice as he sung along.

"I love how you know all of the lyrics to this song." Kagome stirred in salt.

"Well, when you hear it a hundred times, you're gonna' remember it."

Kagome set a bottle of rice wine down and changed the station on the radio. Inuyasha looked at her like she had just done the worst thing in the world.

"What, you said that you've heard it a hundred times, right? I have too, let's listen to something else. Besides, it's not like your singing is all the great either."

"I like that song and I sing like an angel." He turned back to the previous station.

"Inuyasha, who sings that song?"

"Katy perry..."

"Yea, then leave it to her." Kagome didn't even bother changing the station again since a new song came on.

"Now and then I think of when we were together. Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
I told myself that you were right for me." Inuyasha sung.

Kagome sighed before changing the station to Spanish music.

Inuyasha changed it back. "I like that song."

"I love that song, but your singing ruins it." She switched it.

"Oh really?" He changed it. "Have your friends collect your records and then change your number I guess that I don't need that though! Now you're just somebody that I used to know! Now you're just somebody that I used to know! Now you're just somebody that I used to know !" Inuyasha turned the volume all the way up and sung at the top of his lungs.

Kagome covered her ears. She didn't see how Inuyasha's sensitive ears weren't bleeding. Kagome was quick to turn the volume down. "You are one crazy man."

Inuyasha turned the song up some more, not enough to blow their ears though. "That you love."

"I'm questioning that." She said before turning back to the dumplings. There wasn't a point in changing the station now.

"So you don't love me?"

"I'm still thinking about it." She began filling a large pot with water.

Inuyasha lightly pressed Kagome against the counter. She turned around so that she was facing him.

"What's not to love about me?" He placed his hands on her waist.

"For one thing, you're cocky..." Inuyasha's face inched closer to hers. "Scary looking...rough...annoying...and now you're invading my personal space." Kagome said as she looked into his amber eyes.

He pressed his lips against hers. "You're forgetting I'm also handsome, I have a great personality, and that I'm just an all out amazing person." He mumbled against her lips.

Her hands lightly pressed against his abs. "Mmmhhmmm."

"Still thinking about whether you love me or not?"

"Not at all." Kagome said as she pushed him away. "I know for a fact that I don't love you, I can't love a man who used his wonderful kisses to manipulate me."

"As long as you know I love and cherish you that's all that matters."

Kagome stood on her tip toes and pecked him on the cheek. "I can love a man who says that though."

They finished cooking dinner, grabbed a huge blanket, and began the walk to the back of the apartment complex.

Inuyasha laid the blanket on the floor, while Kagome looked at the lake. Fireflies were dancing over the water. Kagome looked at a firefly in front of her. She cupped her hands and captured it.

"Hey, Inuyasha." Kagome said as she walked up to him. "Look." She showed him the fire fly that was in her hand.

"...Now you need to wash your hands."

"That's your response to something so cute?" She asked as she let it flyaway.

"Ain't nothing cute about holding a little insect that poops and pees." He laid down on the blanket and looked at the sky. Kagome was right, the starts were beautiful.

"...It's a shame that you can't see how beautiful it is." She sat down next to him before stretching out and putting her hands behind her head.

"At least I see how beautiful you are." He said with a smile.

"Corny, but cute."

He took out a dumpling and popped it into his mouth. "See, this is why guys don't do the whole romantic thing that girls are supposed to like, we either get called corny or lame or sissy's and other crap. It's not worth it when you can be rude and disrespectful and still get the girl."

"You think too much."

"Or you just don't think enough."

Kagome opened a bottle of water for him. "Are you calling me dumb?"

Inuyasha wasn't sure if he should reply to that. He knew she was smarter than him, and she knew it too. She could throw her grades, her advanced classes, and all of the times he had cheated off of her back at him if he said one more thing.

"Do you want to try a dumpling?" Inuyasha asked as he grabbed it with his chopstick.

"No thank you." Kagome said with a shake of her head.

Inuyasha sighed. "Not hungry?"

"Nope."

"That's like...the nineteenth time you've said no to eating today."

"I'd say that's pretty good because you asked me about a hundred times. I'm just not hungry." Inuyasha grabbed a dumpling and laid it on her lips. Kagome crossed her eyes while looking down at it. She gently grabbed it, opened Inuyasha's hand, and then placed it in his hand. "I'll eat when I'm hungry, promise."

"3 meals a day." Inuyasha said in his warning tone.

"And I had two." She slowly closed her eyes. "Try not to worry about how I'm eating and focus more on what you're eating. I'm glad that you stopped eating ramen as much."

He rubbed his stomach. "Anything for you my dear, anything for you."

"Look, there's Orion." Kagome said as she pointed at a cluster of stars.

Inuyasha looked up. Whatever Kagome saw, Inuyasha didn't. If anything, he could see the letter 'r'...barely.

Inuyasha laid down. "There's the letter r, a lower case r." Inuyasha pointed to it in the sky." She shook her head. "What do you mean no? How are you going to tell me what I see?"

Kagome tried her hardest to see a r in the sky, but she couldn't find one anywhere. "There isn't an r." She scooted closer to him to see if a change of angle would help her see it. "Yup, definitely no r."

"There is."

"Is it there?" Kagome pointed in the sky.

"No."

"Is it there." She moved her hand slightly.

"No, it's here." Inuyasha grabbed her hand and moved it slowly and carefully to the side. "Now you're pointing at it."

"That looks more like a dinosaur than a r." She intertwined her fingers with his.

"How do you not see that r?"

"Very easily because it was never there." She sighed. "What would you do if we broke up?"

"Are you planning on breaking up with me?"

"No, I'm just wondering."

"Don't wonder about things that'll never happen." He put his arm around her waist. "You're mine and you always will be."

Kagome smiled. 'I hope it always stays that way.'


Inuyasha and Kagome didn't go inside until late. By the time they both had their showers and were sitting on the couch, it was already three in the morning.

"I'm tired." Inuyasha said with a yawn.

"Why don't we watch a bit of tv together?" Kagome suggested.

"...Or we can sleep?" Inuyasha had felt tired around one but Kagome insisted on finding more stars together.

"How about...a board game...Just one?...Like monopoly...Oh wait, you don't keep board games here...How about we watch Shoah? That's a good movie."

There was no chance in hell Inuyasha was going to watch a 544 long minute movie with how tired he was.

"OR you can watch the movie by yourself while your boyfriend gets his sexy sleep, that's an appealing idea."

Kagome looked dejected. "You're really tired?"

"Beyond."

"Okay, sorry for asking you to do things." She placed a good night kiss on his cheek. "Alright, good night." She walked to her room and closed the door behind her.

Inuyasha didn't know why, but he felt bad. He opened the door to her room. "Why don't you spend the night with me? It gets lonely at night when I'm alone."

Kagome smiled. "Sure."

She followed Inuyasha to his room and got comfortable in his bed. For some reason, someone else's bed always felt better than her own.

"Night." Inuyasha said as he turned off the light.

"Good night."

Inuyasha was out like a light bulb. Kagome lightly played with his ears as she looked around. She was actually scared to be in the dark. Even with Inuyasha with her, she could feel her heart beating faster than it normally would.

She focused more on Inuyasha and his peaceful expression.

'There's nothing to be scared of.' Kagome told herself.

She knew there was nothing to be scared of, but she couldn't get the feeling of being afraid to go away. She smiled when Inuyasha's ear twitched. She felt like the luckiest girl in the world to have a boyfriend like him. Who wouldn't?

Inuyasha began lightly snoring.

'Wow, he wasn't joking when he said he was tired."

Inuyasha only snored when he was extremely sleepy, which was a rare occasion, even if it was a light snore.

'Sorry for making you stay up so late.' Kagome thought sadly

Seconds turned to minutes, and minutes turned to hours.

Inuyasha woke up and looked around.

'That was such a good dream.' He thought.

He blinked. There was a sound, but not the right sound. His ears picked up Kagome's breathing. It wasn't even, if she was sleeping her breathing would be even.

"Kagome, did you sleep?" He asked while looking at her. He had a feeling she'd give him an answer he wouldn't be pleased with.

"...Not exactly."

"Not exactly? Kagome I'm sure that a couple of hours have passed. Go to bed, you're gonna' be tired in the morning if you don't get rest."

"Alright."

"I'm not going to sleep again until you go to bed." He said with a yawn.

Kagome nodded her head.

Sure enough, not even ten minutes had passed before Inuyasha was curled up with his pillow sleeping again, just like Kagome predicted. If he was as tired as he made himself out to be, there was no chance of him staying up, especially when he was comfortable, like now.

She just couldn't bring herself to sleep though. Almost every time she slept she'd dream about that night, the night her father died or have some awful dream involving her father. There was a rare occasion when she'd have regular, pointless dreams, but that wasn't likely, and Kagome wasn't willing to take that chance anymore. She would rather lose sleep, rather than wake up sweaty and in tears.


For a good week, Inuyasha and Kagome kept sleeping like that. Inuyasha wasn't complaining and actually enjoyed having her in the room with him. He felt that he got a better sleep when she was next to him.

He could tell that Kagome was extremely bothered by it though. Who would complain when they had a beautiful girl (his girlfriend at that) sleeping next to them every night? No matter how many times he tried to tell her it wasn't a problem, she still wore an aura of inconvenience.

Inuyasha spit out tooth paste in the sink, they were both in the bathroom getting ready for bed.

"I already told you it's okay Kagome."

She patted her face gently with her wash cloth. "I know, but I feel bad depending on you like this. You've done a lot and now it's like I'm doing the foot-in-the-door phenomenon."

"Foot up where ammonia?" Inuyasha questioned.

"The foot in the door phenomenon." Kagome corrected. "Is when someone starts off with a small requests and then it turns into a bigger one."

He splashed water on his face. "Oh, well, look at it this way." He took her hand in his. "You're mine, and I take care of what's mine." He kissed her. "Come on, let's go to bed."

"Good night." Kagome said as she grabbed her blanket and snuggling into his bed.

"Night." He placed a kiss on her cheek before turning his lamp off. "Ne, Kagome?"

"Yes?"

"Wanna do something fun tomorrow? A nice drive somewhere? Maybe to a movie or the beach?" Inuyasha asked.

"Sure."

"That's only if you sleep though."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Maybe. Night."

Inuyasha waited and waited, but Kagome never fell asleep. It was already going onto three in the morning and they had been in bed since twelve. He could see her start to go to sleep and then she'd wake herself up. Inuyasha didn't say anything as he waited for her to sleep. He knew she'd fall asleep sometime that night, it was just a matter of when.

Around four, he finally heard her breathing even out. It was like music to his ears. He finally relaxed in his bed. Now he could sleep peacefully, knowing that she was asleep.

Kagome's Dream

Kagome sat in the living room in her old house. She was watching TV with homework sprawled out all around her.

Her father walked into the room with a smile on his face, he looked at her for a second before walking into the kitchen.

"Kagome come here." She stood up and walked into the kitchen. "Sit at the table." Her father said as he rummaged in the dish washer. She reluctantly sat.

Her father sat across from her. She looked at him, she had never seen a smile that huge on her fathers face before.

"We're going to play a little game."

Kagome nodded her head. She couldn't remember the last time her father had last played a game with her. Was it a blue moon today?

He placed a knife on the right and a gun on the left, a pretty looking pistol, it looked freshly bought. The knife Kagome stared at was rusty and old looking.

'He pulled this out of the dish washer? I really hope I didn't use this dirty looking thing on any food I cooked.'

"The rules of the game are that one person gets one weapon. Choose your weapon."

Kagome looked at her father with horror. "Weapon? What kind of game is this?" Kagome wouldn't play a game involving a knife and gun, that was just asking for trouble.

"Don't question me, just choose a weapon." Her father said, the smile gone from his face.

"...No." Kagome could feel her hands sweating just from saying that one word.

He looked angry now. "You will choose a weapon, and you will choose one now. Do you want a beating?"

Kagome looked at the weapons, she did not want a beating. She hesitated as she reached for the gun and grabbed it before slowly pulling it back to her. She thought it better to have such a powerful weapon in her hands since she knew she wouldn't use it.

"Now, all we have to do is asphyxiate."

Kagome had never heard that word before, she didn't like the sounds of it though. "What does that last word mean?"

His smile returned, even bigger than before. "It means to cut off air, my dear."

Her eyed widened. "I'm not playing this." She all but slammed the gun back on the table.

Her dad grabbed the knife. "Play it now, I'll do worse than just beat you if you don't play."

"Stop, put the knife down. We are not playing this game." Kagome reached for the knife but her father pulled it out of her reach and then twirled it around skillfully in his hand, almost as if he was taunting her.

"The game begins in 10.9.8.-"

Kagome didn't bother waiting to hear the rest of the countdown, she grabbed the gun and ran. When she tried to unlock the door it wouldn't move, even with all of the locks off it didn't open.

She ran to the basement and tried to open that door, it was locked too. She tucked the gun into her back pocket.

'Oh my god, this is how I'm going to die.' She thought as she looked around frantically, she could hear him coming down the stairs towards the basement.

There was no doubt in her mind that she was about to die. She didn't contemplate even holding the gun up at her father. Shooting him just wasn't an option.

She stared at him like a dear caught in headlights as her father stepped down the last stair. She was completely exposed. She said prayers a hundred miles a second as her father neared her. When he was standing in front of her, Kagome was surprised that he didn't kill her yet.

Instead, in one quick movement, he slit the knife across her left cheek and blood oozed down. Kagome stared at him, almost shocked that he had done that. She felt the blood hit her shirt as it soaked into the fabric.

It wasn't until the first drop of blood hit the floor that Kagome decided to fight back. She pushed her father to the floor with all of her power and jumped on top of him. She began fighting for the knife.

In the process, her right cheek was slit. Kagome did her best to ignore the pain though.

For a split second she thought, 'Somehow...this seems familiar.' She didn't dawdle too much on that.

Kagome was nearly cut across the forehead as her father swung the knife up at her. She leaned back as she dodged it. Her father took that opportunity to push her off and then get on top of her.

Kagome screamed as he punched her in the gut. She watched as he dropped the knife and then reached around behind her and felt along her jeans.

'Is he going to rape me?' She thought as she kept screaming, she punched him, kicked him, spit on him, but nothing worked, she couldn't move him off of her.

Her blood ran cold when he pulled the gun from her back pocket, she had forgotten she had even put it there.

He held the gun with shaky hands.

He aimed the gun at her. "Don't shoot!" He steadied the gun directly in the center of her face. She tried to grab for the gun but he held it away before beating her upside the head with it.

"NO!" Kagome screamed.

He quickly aimed the gun at her and pulled the trigger.

End of Dream

Before Kagome could see what happened next she found herself back in Inuyasha's room being shaken by the arms. Kagome screamed before trying to get out of Inuyasha's grasp. She pushed on his stomach, scratching him with her nails in the process.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled.

Kagome stopped fighting back when she heard her name. She looked up at him, it finally registered that she was in Inuyasha's room, his hands were on her shoulders, and that she had just scratched him.

"Kagome, are you okay?" He slowly released his hands from her shoulders.

Kagome didn't answer him, she stared at the scratch that was already bleeding and turning red. "I-I thought you were...oh my god." Kagome shook her head as she looked at the scratch. She quickly scrambled off of his bed and ran to her room. Inuyasha was hot on her trail, but didn't make it in time to her room, she had already locked the door.

"Kagome open the door!" Inuyasha yelled. "Open it!"

Kagome shook her head as she slid to the floor against the door.

She. Felt. Like. A . Monster .

She couldn't believe she had just hurt him, the one person she never wanted to hurt. She looked down at her hands and began crying.

"Kagome open up, talk to me!" Through her crying he could only make out the words 'hurt' and 'you'. "Babe, it was an accident, it wasn't on purpose, please open the door."

Inuyasha could care less about the scratch on his chest, he just wanted to make sure she was okay. When he heard her screaming out of no where, he thought she was hurt or something bad had happened. To a bit of relief she was only having a nightmare.

"Kagome open up, please." Inuyasha begged. "Talk to me."

"I hate myself! I wish I had died instead of my dad!" She said as she cried.

It just wasn't worth it, being tormented by dreams, and even hurting someone. Why her?

"Don't say that! Open the door!" Inuyasha banged on the door.

All he could hear was Kagome crying, she stopped talking.


Kagome looked at her alarm clock. It was seven o'clock exactly.

She stood up from the ground, she had never left her place on the floor from earlier. Kagome unlocked the door slowly, before opening it as quietly as she could. When she walked out, she spotted Inuyasha on the couch. She silently walked over and looked at him.

He was sprawled out on the couch in what looked like an uncomfortable position. She shook her head as she looked at the scratch on his stomach, dry blood was all around it, it looked like he didn't even bother trying to clean it.

Kagome walked to the bathroom and began washing up.

'Inuyasha needs time to himself, I'm always around...bugging him.' She thought as she washed her face.

It wasn't long before she was dressed and closing the door behind her. Kagome blindly walked around for a couple of hours, she ended up at the park Kenrou used to take her to.

She hopped the fence and began walking to the beat up shrine behind the park. Once Kagome was inside, she remembered that she was supposed to meet them the day after the last time she came. No one was in the front room so she began walking around the endless halls.

"Momiji! Botan! Ms. Kaede?" Kagome called out.

Maybe they weren't there? It was a bit early. Kagome went forward to the last room before reaching outside. She walked to the koi fish pond, which she found to be her favorite spot on the shrine grounds, and sat down.

"I'll call you Kimi, Kimchi, Korori, Kody, Kitty, and...Komi." Kagome said as she pointed at the fishes. Right after she said the names, she couldn't remember which fish was which, half of them looked the same.

One of the fish swam to the edge of the pond close to her. Kagome watched as it opened and closed it's mouth. Kagome did it back at the fish. "Are you tying to talk to me?" She asked it. It swam away. "Guess not."

Minutes passed of her just watching the fish, and she found it calming. Now she could properly think of how to apologize to Inuyasha.

As she was thinking, she heard a door slide open behind her.

"Kagome?" Momiji asked as she walked out and shut the door.

Her hands were full of blankets. Kagome took some of the blankets off of the top. "Hi, long time no see."

"Where have you been? You said you'd come back one day and it's been weeks. Follow me this way." She said as she walked to a door on the left.

"I'll explain that later. What are all of these blankets for?"

"I just did laundry." She walked to another room. "We can set the blankets here."

Kagome set the blankets in a corner. "Those were heavy. So, where is Ms. Kaede?"

"Just a couple of rooms down, she's drinking tea with Botan. Come on." They began walking. "What brings you here so early in the morning?"

"Oh..I-uh, just thought I'd drop by as soon as possible since it's been a while since we last met."

Momiji opened the last door. "Wonderful, you're in time for tea."

Kagome waved at Botan when they were in the room.

"Good morning." Kaede said as Kagome sat around the table.

Kagome smiled. "Hello, it's been a while."

"Yes, it has."

"I'll explain why I'm so late coming back in a second, how have you all been?"

Kaede poured the tea slowly. "Things have been going well here."

"Which is boringly." Botan added.

"It's not easy being a young priestess. You get up, do priestess things, go to sleep, and then repeat. Unless there's school."

Kagome nodded her head as she took the tea from Kaede, their hands lightly brushing while doing so. "Sounds like an interesting life."

"I'm sure your life is much more interesting, where were you? What'd you do while you were gone? Vacation?" Botan asked eagerly.

Kagome took in a deep breath. "Well….the reason why I was gone…." Her body tensed up, she tried to think of a way to tell them or if to even tell them at all. She decided that she'd tell them seeing as it didn't really matter, it was nothing but a past memory. "Here's what happened after I left the shrine."

Kagome explained in not too much detail about what had happened, very vaguely in fact. She left out a lot of details about what her father had tried to do to her at night and about the kissing. All three of the woman sitting in the room seemed mortified as they listened to her story.

"Oh my god, Kagome I'm so sorry that happened to you." Momiji said as she hugged her.

Botan shook her head. "This is my entire fault; I wish I hadn't told your boyfriend that you went to your friend's house."

"None of this is your fault." Kagome said as she put her hand on top of Botan's. "It's no ones, it just kind of…happened….Since I'm perfectly fine, there's absolutely nothing to worry about."

"But-" Botan started.

"It's not your fault." Kagome said, almost sternly. "I'm here, breathing, smiling, and drinking tea, so there's no reason to over think the situation." Kagome said before drinking more of her tea.

"She's right, Botan stop being so negative. This is a cause for celebration since she's okay."

"Exactly."

"Let's celebrate with a good game of Blind Archer."

"Blind archer?" Kagome questioned.

"It's just where we blindfold someone, give them a bow and arrow and see if they can hit the target. Momiji's really good at this game." Botan said proudly, as if she were the one that was good at the game.

Kagome looked at the girls. Did they honestly want a girl with little to none archery experience playing such a game? The thought alone made Kagome contemplate their sanity.

"Uh..sure…."

Both girls jumped up energetically. "I'll get the bows and arrows."

Kagome stood up. "Well, this should be interesting."

"I'd actually like to have a talk with you, Kagome." Kaede said.

Kagome looked at the girls. "I'll catch up with you in a second."

"Okay, be prepared to lose." Momiji said before pulling Botan out of the room with her.

Kagome looked at Kaede and waited for her to talk. Kaede took a sip of tea before slowly setting the cup down on the table. It felt like hours had passed before Kaede stood up.

"I'll be back."

Kagome watched Kaede walk out of the room.

'Did she forget she had to tell me something?' Kagome thought.

Kaede returned just as soon as she left with the same jewel Kagome held in her hands before. Kagome looked at the jewel, still fascinated with its color.

"When our hands brushed I felt something, or should I say, a lack of something."

"Could you deliberate please?" Kagome asked.

"Hold the jewel."

Kagome slowly took it. She looked at the jewel. It seemed like nothing more than a regular jewel now, there was no spark, flash, or bright light…just nothing.

"I don't see anything, is it broken?" She shook it. Why wasn't it lighting up like the first time.

"It's not broken…Whatever power you had previously is gone…"

Kagome looked surprised. "Maybe it was just a fluke to begin with?"

Kaede shook her head. "No, you've demonstrated your power before, there is no doubt in my mind that there was power in you."

"Then what happened?" Kagome couldn't come up with a logical explanation.

"This is quite rare, I don't think I've ever heard of something like this. My guess is that you've used all of your ability up."

"Is that possible?"

"…It could be...It's more of like...sleeping...or...should I say dormant? As far as I know, it is completely impossible to lose all of your power, but it's most likely just resting. You've exerted a great deal of power over the past weeks."

"But I only did something with the power when I used the arrow..."

"It must've have come out in other ways, remember how I talked about how they'll use any way to seep out?"

"Oh...Well, when do you think they're going to come back?

Kagome looked at her reflection in the tea. She didn't really care about the temporarily losing her power thing because she didn't really understand it to begin with.

"Maybe in a day..an hour...a year..ten years...It's not something I'd know, it's just something that will happen."

"...Then I guess there's no point in me coming here anymore."

"NO!" Botan and Momiji bust threw the door.

Kagome nearly jumped out her sitting position on the floor. "Were you two here the whole time?"

"Momiji made me listen, anyways, you can't stop coming here! You're the only source of fun we get!" She pointed at herself and Momiji.

"So I'm just entertainment?" Kagome asked with a laugh.

"No, she means you're fun, you're not our monkey. Please don't go." Momiji said with pleading eyes.

"...Listen...Since I don't have the power anymore, I really don't see the point in coming here, but.." She looked around the room. "This shrine is pretty big, and you guys must have a lot of trouble taking care of it, so I can drop by and help you out. Besides, the power isn't completely gone, it's just sleeping so if and when they do come back it'll be easier if I get in a bit of training even without them."

Momiji and Botan smiled happily. "So you'll stay?"

"And your gonna' help us clean?"

Kagome nodded her head happily. The girls pulled Kagome out of her seat and began spinning in joy.

"Perfect, less work for us."

"You don't know how many cups Kaede blows throw in a day, she drinks about fifteen cups a day, and she never uses the same cup. Sadly, we're the ones that have to do dishes." Botan rolled her eyes.

"Now you can help us." Momiji clapped her hands twice. "Alright, let's go play Blinded archer."

They began pushing Kagome towards the door.

She smiled. 'This is going to be crazy.'


It wasn't too late when Kagome left the shrine, it was almost six, but by the time she reached the apartment complex it was almost completely dark though.

'I wish the shrine were closer to his apartment.'

She walked to the door slowly. Her heartbeat was racing just thinking about what happened last night. She reached for the handle.

'I hope I gave him enough time...Maybe he's mad?' She thought to herself. It was completely her fault that he was scratched, guilt was consuming her. 'Should I give him more time? I could walk around for a while longer...'

She drew her hand back. "I'll give him more time."

Before Kagome could take a step backwards to leave, the door was swung open and she felt a hand wrap around her wrist and then pull her into a hug. She felt like she was engulfed in warmness.

"Kagome, where have you been? ! Don't you ever leave this house without telling me where you're going! Do you know how worried I was, I didn't know what happened to you!"

"But, I...I just thought that you'd want to be alone, I mean last night I-" She whispered.

"You need to stop thinking! Who cares about last night! I just want to make sure you're okay, are you okay?"

Kagome wrapped her arms around him and took in a big breath. "I'm fine, more than fine." She buried her head in his chest. 'Fine now that I know you're not mad.'

"Why do you have to worry me so much? Come inside, you're cold."

They walked inside, Kagome took off her jacket. "Thank god for heaters, it's so warm in here."

"I'll put on some hot cocoa." Inuyasha said as he put the kettle on the stove on low.

"Yay, warm stuff." Inuyasha wrapped his arm around her when he sat on the couch. "Inuyasha, I'm sorry. I didn't want to worry you, it seems like all I do is cause you unneeded stress."

He pulled Kagome closer to him. "Maybe if you didn't wonder off randomly, I wouldn't have so much stress. You're not gonna' do that again, right?"

Kagome shook her head. "No.

"Good, so then there's no reason to apologize."

"Yea, sorry..."

Inuyasha flipped on the television. "Where'd you go anyway?"

"Out, to the park, and a shrine."

"A shrine?" Inuyasha questioned.

"I'll explain it later, it has to do with priests and mikos, and other random stuff."

"Priests?"

"Let's save it for another day." She said with a yawn.

"You tired?"

"A little." Kagome yawned once more. 'More like a lot.' She rolled her eyes as the thought of Botan and Momiji popped into her mind. The girls made her get in some 'practice cleaning' so she spent a good portion of her time cleaning the shrine. Why did it have to be so big?

"Take a nap, you're comfortable right?"

She shook her head. "Here? Nu-uh, it's like you completely forgot about last night." Kagome looked at where the scratch should've been, she was happy he was wearing a shirt so she couldn't see the scratch.

Inuyasha grabbed her hand and placed it on where the scratch was on top of his shirt. "This." He rubbed her hand around on it. "Is nothing more than a love wound. This wasn't even on purpose. We're gonna have plenty of more love wounds, some on an accident, some on purpose. Well, I mean I'm gonna have love wounds cause' I'm not gonna put my hands on you, but point is, don't even worry about this small scratch."

Kagome pulled him into a kiss. "You are the best, thanks for trying to make me feel better about it."

"Anything for my favorite girl, now just sleep." He placed her head on his chest and began stroking her hair.

Kagome closed her eyes. 'I love him.'

Dream

Kagome looked around, she was back on the vast stage again, alone. She adorned a simple red sweetheart skater dress that stopped just before her knee. To her surprise she wasn't wearing any shoes.

Drip Drip drip

"Is, that...water?" She asked as the dripping continued.

Right after she asked the question a song began playing.

"I've heard this before..."

Kagome listened to the somewhat jazzy beat. She couldn't remember where she had heard it from, but it was vaguely familiar.

"Kenrou." She called out. 'If there's a song playing it must mean that he's somewhere around, right?'

"Pleased to see you again, my dear." Kenrou said as he walked out from behind the curtains.

Kagome gave him a hug. "It's nice to see you again."

He breathed her in as he hugged her tightly. "You don't remember this song?"

"…I've heard it somewhere."

"It's just a random song from a movie we watched together."

"Oh, well if it's random that's probably why I don't remember it." She took his hand in hers. "Are we going to dance?"

He shook his head with a smile. "Not this time."

"No dancing?" Kagome gave him a questioning look. She almost felt worried, since when does dream Kenrou not want not to dance? Was it possible for dreams to get sick? "Why not?"

"I just want to talk for now, I'm sure you're tired of dancing by now."

Kagome glanced at the floor. "It seems like dream dancing is the only time I actually get to dance, I haven't danced in a while."

Kenrou lightly cupped her chin and made her look at him. "I suggest you dance as soon as you wake up then."

"Can't we just dance now? I hate to say it, but I actually enjoy dancing with you." She listened to the music play. "What's the point of having music play if we're not going to dance to it?"

"Wouldn't it be boring if we only had the comfort of our voices? Sometimes it's nice to have a little background music."

"Alright, I won't batter you about it." She let go of his hand. "So….how's…life?"

He laughed. "Non-life? It's pretty good and yours? Anything exciting happen?"

"If you call almost getting killed by your dad exciting, then yea, my life is pretty exciting."

"I know all about it, everything you see, everything you are, I know it all."

"Then why ask?"

"How rude would it be if I didn't ask you even though you asked me about how my life was?" He began walking off of the stage, Kagome followed him.

They sat in the theater chairs in front of the stage. "Not very…"

"So how do you feel about all of this?" He leaned back in the chair.

"This?" Kagome moved her hand in a circular motion, referring to her dream.

"No, what's happened. You haven't really talked to anyone about it."

"If you know everything, then you should know that I haven't talked about it for a reason; I don't want to talk about it." Kagome looked at the anklet adorning her ankle. She hadn't noticed until it she had actually looked down. It had a small star charm hanging on it.

"…You sure you don't want to talk about it? I mean, there's nothing left to do but talk, your dads dead, life goes on; trust me, I know."

"Don't you know it's rude to ask people about their dead relatives?"

"Don't you know it's bad to hold things in?"

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Whatever, it's like you said, he's dead, there's nothing to talk about."

"Oh, but there is, how do you feel about this? I'm not asking you to tell me what happened, just tell me how you feel." He placed his hand on hers.

"…Upset…."

"You feel upset? Please, elaborate."

"You only asked me to tell you how I feel, not to elaborate on it." She slipped her hand out of his and folded her knees to her chest in the seat. "But….if I were to elaborate…I'd say…I'm upset, hurt, sad….depressed that my last parent died. Angry, that he died under such conditions. Guilty...because I kind of feel like its my fault." Kagome felt like crying.

Kenrou wrapped his arm around her shoulders. "This is what I wanted you to say. You're opening up to me, telling me how you feel, what you think. If you're not going to tell someone, at least tell me."

Kagome nodded her head. "We're not going to see each other for a long time, right?" She looked at him. "I'm right, aren't I?"

He smiled. "Well, it depends. You can always visit my grave when you're happy or sad, whenever you want to, it all just depends on you." He replied softly.

"You know what I mean, I'll never see you like this, in my dreams. We'll never talk like this again."

Kagome was going to miss this. Sometimes she hated talking to him, sometimes she loved it. Right now, she just missed it even though it wasn't gone yet.

"You'll see me again, but you're right, not like this. I'll just be a dream, not a...Kagome dream, but that's absolutely nothing to frown about."

"I'm going to miss this...Thank you, for everything, you've really helped me a lot. You're the best, Kenrou." Kagome tried to smile, but found that she couldn't.

"Remember, I'm not really Kenrou, just your 'ability'." He stood up. "What tipped you off anyway? How'd you know we wouldn't be seeing each other again?"

"Well, I thought it was odd that you didn't want to dance again. The last thing Kenrou asked me to do before he died was dance...I don't know, this time just felt different."

"It's okay, don't think of this as a good bye, think of it more as a...see you again."

"See you again can't come soon enough." Kenrou took Kagome's hands in his and pulled her out of her chair.

"Goodbye hug?" Kagome nearly tackled him into a hug. Her arms wrapped around his torso. "I wish I were real and alive so that I could hug you all the time."

Kagome closed her eyes. "Thanks again..."

"No need to say thanks, I'll help you plenty of more times in the future."

"Okay..."

He hugged her tighter. "Remember, I'm always watching. Remind that Inuyasha guy that I'm ready to haunt his ass if he tries anything sneaky."

Kagome couldn't even muster a laugh. "Yea." She could feel tears forming in her eyes.

"Like I said, this isn't good bye, just an 'I'll see you again'."

And just like that, Kagome felt the body that was once between her arms slowly fade away, when she opened her eyes she saw that Kenrou was gone. Her arms dropped to her side and she began walking up the stairs leading to the stage.

When had the music stopped playing? She hadn't noticed until then.

"I want to wake up now." She said as she paced the stage.

It felt like hours before Kagome actually woke up. Hours of just pacing the dry theater room with no music, alone.

When Kagome woke up, the first thing she did was dry her eyes.

"When did I even start crying?" She looked at Inuyasha, he was sleeping peacefully. 'I wonder what he's dreaming about.' From the way his ear twitched every now and then, she assumed there was some sort of noise playing in his head. 'Maybe..a song...his favorite song?'

Kagome watched his facial expression change from what she thought was a happy look to confused look and then back to happy before he woke up.

He looked at Kagome before closing his eyes and leaning his head back. "Were you looking at me this whole time?"

"Yea, I was trying to guess your dream. Was there music playing?"

"Yea, really bad music. I was trying to find the key to the house in my back pack and Miroku was next to me blasting his horrible music."

'I was right about the music part at least.' Kagome thought.

"Were you crying?" He looked closer at her eyes. "You were crying weren't you?"

"Not really." She answered honestly. "It's more like water leaked out of my eyes when I was sleeping, it wasn't intentional." She stood up. "Well, I'm going to go take a shower. I'll be sleeping alone tonight."

"Really? Alone? Are you sure, you're welcome in my room anytime. If it's about last night i-"

"It's not, I just want to try it, I think I might be okay tonight."

"Alright, if you say so..." Even though he said okay, he was still worried about her.

"Good." She began walking to the bathroom. "Oh, and Kenrou said that he's watching you."

He watched his girlfriend walk to the bathroom and then close the door. "Wait...What?" He asked confusedly.

Once Kagome was out of the shower and had had a glass of milk, she kissed her boyfriend good night and went to her room.

"Okay, how can I approach this? First, all lights off." She turned off all of the lights in her room, making it pitch black dark. "Okay, this is a little scary. Don't be scared, Kagome, don't be scared, you've slept in the dark before." She said, giving herself a small pep talk. "Alright, now, the bed."

She climbed into bed and got comfortable. "And now just sleep." Kagome could feel her heart beating fast in her chest. She found it hard to believe she was so scared of sleeping in the dark when she had done it at least a thousand times.

She laid in bed looking at the black around her. She felt like she was almost suffocating. 'You're not scared, you just think that you're scared. Stop being scared! Inuyasha is next door, nothings going to happen. There is nothing to be scared of.'

An hour passed and Kagome was no where near going to sleep. She was tired, but she was too scared to sleep. "I'm not going to sleep tonight, am I?"

She heard two knocks at her door and sat up in bed. Inuyasha walked in and turned on the light.

"It's one in the morning, and you're still up." He sat at the edge of her bed.

"You're up, too." She noted.

"Kagome, why don't you sleep in my room tonight?"

"No, I'm okay in here."

Inuyasha pointed to his ears. "Your heartbeat and talking to yourself say otherwise, I could hear you in my room."

Kagome felt her cheeks turn hot. "Sorry, I'm fine in here though."

"You sure?"

Kagome exaggerated a head nod.

"Okay, then...good night." Inuyasha turned off the light and closed the door behind him.

Kagome sighed. "Back to the darkness."

Inuyasha stepped back in and turned on the light. "Okay, what kind of boyfriend would I be if I knew you were in here scared and I'm in my room perfectly fine?" Before Kagome could answer, he answered for her. "Not a good one, just come to my room."

"That's sweet, but-"

"Come on, you're not bothering me when you sleep in my room, and it's better than you staying up and talking to yourself." Kagome began contemplating her options. "Besides, you'll get to wake up next to a very fine man if you do sleep in my room. Not every person can say that."

Kagome smiled. "Alright, I'm sold." She got out of bed. "I'm so tired."

Inuyasha led her to his room. "I'm tired too, it's been a long day."

"I guess so, huh?" Kagome climbed into bed and pulled the covers up to her face. 'I wonder when I won't have problems sleeping.'

"Kagome, would you ever give me a foot message?" Inuyasha asked as he looked at her.

"You know how I feel about feet."

"I'd give you one."

"Yea, but my feet are petite, dainty, clean, and groomed to a T unlike your feet."

"My feet are just as clean as yours."

"Inuyasha, you walk around bare foot practically 24/7. You've been to Krogers without shoes or socks on your feet more times than I can count."

"Shoes aren't a necessity."

"And that's the type of thinking that earns you dirty feet.

"My feet-"

"I'm not having this discussion with you, good night." Inuyasha put his foot on Kagome's bare leg. "Ew! Don't be a child, go to sleep."

He rolled over so that his arm was laying across Kagome's stomach. "Love you."

She put her hand over his arm. "Love you too, now move your arm so I can sleep."

They stayed up for a while longer talking before slowly drifting into peaceful sleep.


3 Weeks Later

Kagome slowly stirred awake and looked at her alarm clock.

"Oh my god!" She quickly jumped out of bed and ran out of her room and into Inuyasha's. "Inuyasha get up we're late!"

She ran out of his room and then into the bathroom to get ready for the day. Inuyasha groggily walked out of his room with a yawn.

"What?"

"We're late! Sango and Miroku are probably already at the café. Ugh, Sango said we would be late too!" She finished brushing her teeth and began washing her face.

Inuyasha began brushing his teeth.

Three weeks ago, Inuyasha promised Kagome that he'd help her with her sleeping problem since it bothered her so much. She talked to her therapist about her sleeping habits and asked what would be the best way to get back on track with sleeping in the dark and alone. Turns out, opening up about the night mares and her feelings to the therapist and Inuyasha was doing good for her.

After nights of sleeping together, Kagome was able to sleep with a night light in her room alone. She was still working on sleeping in the dark, but she actually liked the night light. Inuyasha picked out a cute mushroom night light for her, it almost made her happy that she had something so cute in her room.

"Quickly, quickly, quickly." Kagome said as she threw her hair into a bun and put her glasses on.

"I'm going, I'm going." Inuyasha said as he grabbed the car keys.

She put on her shoe. "We can't let them think that were going to be 'that couple'."

"That couple? What couple are we?" He put his jacket on.

"You know, the couple that's always late to everything."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "I bet Sango and Miroku aren't even there yet, they probably would've called."

"Come on." She grabbed Inuyasha's hand and pulled him out the door.

She got into the drivers seat of the car. "What are you doing?" Inuyasha asked.

"Well, I need to get practice to get my license. I should've been had my license, let me drive to the café." Kagome held out her hands to take the key.

Inuyasha shook his head. "That's not a good idea. Besides, I'm a better and faster driver, don't you want to get there quickly?"

Kagome may have had her permit, but she was the worst driver Inuyasha had ever seen. She had recently began working to get her license. Inuyasha had to survive two hours of driving with Kagome each day and it was scary as hell.

Inuyasha had never been scared for his life, but Kagome changed that the second he let her drive on the road with him in the car. The practice drives were always near death experiences for him. Now that Kagome was in a rush to get somewhere, he couldn't see her driving going well.

"I know, but I mean, this'll count towards the time for today. Kill two birds with one stone."

"I don't think that's a good idea."

"Inuyasha, you've taught me well. Besides, I'm already in the driver's seat." She put on her seat belt. "With my seat belt on, if you'd just give me the keys we could be on our way." Inuyasha reluctantly handed her the keys. "Thank you."

He silently planned his will as he walked to the passenger's side.


Inuyasha and Kagome walked into the cafe. Sango quickly spotted them and began shaking her head.

"Late, didn't I tell you that you would be late?" She asked as they sat down.

"Sorry, I thought I set my alarm clock, I guess I didn't."

"What's wrong with him?" Miroku asked as he looked at Inuyasha's mortified expression.

"Oh, nothings wrong with me. Nothing except the fact that I almost lost my life getting here, but it's whatever."

"He's so dramatic." Kagome said, waving him off. "Anyways, let's order now."

Sango rolled her eyes. "Thank god, Miroku kept complaining about how hungry he was the whole time. Forty minutes, non-stop, of his insistent whining."

"Let's go order then." Kagome stood up.

"I want-" Inuyasha started.

"I know what you want." Kagome said with a smile before going up to the register with Sango.

"So...Prom..." Miroku brought up awkwardly.

"...Oh crap, I forgot that thing even existed." Inuyasha grumbled. "I don't even want to think about that. We've already got college to worry about."

"Now that's something I don't want to think about. More homework, plus work, and even worse teachers than this year. I do look forward to the college parties though. I was thinking we could take a small trip before college, like..to Osaka or something.

"That would be cool, it'd be kind of like a graduation present to ourselves."

"Exactly. I hear that Osaka's good for star gazing. It's every girls dream to star gaze with their boyfriend."

"You, my friend, read too many magazines."

"Just imagine it. Kagome pulling you into a deep kiss with her hands entangled in your hair as the moon glows in the night sky. She looks at you with hungry eyes that say 'I want you' and then pulls you into another heated kiss. Osaka is the place to go for that stuff man."

Inuyasha blushed as he felt his cheeks warm at the idea of Kagome making such bold moves. "I don't know what you're talking about, besides I think I'd be the one doing those things to her."

"Doing what to who?" Sango asked as she returned with the food.

Inuyasha was practically bouncing in his seat when he saw the blueberry muffins that he had fallen in love with. Thank god, for these heaven sent muffins. They were almost better than ramen, and nothing was better than ramen.

"How does a trip to Osaka sound after graduation?" Miroku asked before taking a sip of the coffee Sango got him. "It'd be fun to go somewhere before starting college."

"I like that idea, it sounds fun." Kagome said.

"Same here. We should get our acceptance or rejectance letters soon...Is rejectance even a word?" Sango asked.

"No." They said in unison.

"Didn't think so, my point is that we should know if we got into the college of our choices soon though. Since we applied to the same colleges we should get our letters around the same time. I really hope all of us got into Tokyo U."

Inuyasha nodded his head in agreement. "That was the best one out of all of the colleges we applied to."

Kagome drank her tea. "Sanno University is pretty good too."

"But not as good as T.U. I've already bought my Tokyo university hoodie, shorts, water bottle, and hat. I don't know what I'm going to do with all of that stuff if I don't get in." Sango said as she grabbed one of Inuyasha's muffins from his tray.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" Inuyasha asked as he took it back. "This is mine, not yours."

She grabbed it from him. "Sharing is caring."

"And that's how idiots lose everything." He took it back.

"Or that's how nice people make friends, I see why you have so little friends." Sango took the muffin and licked it with a triumphant smile.

Inuyasha took the muffin from her and took a bite of it with his own smile. "You really think I care if you licked it?"

"Hey!" Miroku said. "That was basically like kissing my girlfriend, spit it out!"

"Miroku, I ate the piece she licked, it's not like I made out with it."

He held out his hand. "Spit it out."

"You're sick if you think I'd ever waste any of my muffin. Sango, control your girlfriend."

"My girlfriend? How about you give me that muffin I licked and we call it a day?"

They began arguing about girlfriends and muffins and kissing amongst themselves. Kagome watched them go back and forth with each other with a smile on her face. The arguing about silly things and looking forward to the future let her know that things were truly falling into place.

Epilogue...


STORIES IN THE MAKING, TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT TO READ FIRST (one of them will probably come out next year in August :D..the rest will be published in future years):

1)Undecided name for the story-

Rough Draft Summary: Kagome never expected to meet her ex-boyfriend, Inuyasha, after he began studying abroad during senior year. Now that he's back in her life thee years later, not only does she have to worry about staying as far as possible away from him, but how to break to him that she had the son he never knew about three years ago. Life just got soooo much more complicated.

(1st chapter is in the process of being made, this one I'm dying to make though...I have no idea how I'm going to end it :(, but so far im having a lot of fun writing it, ^-^)

2)Undecided name for this story to...-

Summary: When the new girl walks into the class, comes up to me, and asks what my name is. My first thought isn't 'My names Inuyasha, what's yours?' It's, "Who the fuck is this chick and why the hell is she in my face?" All in all, I don't like her even though I don't know her.

(Yes, there is a TON of cussing in this one, this is Inuyasha's point of view after all ^-^. I have three chapters for this one already. I was actually really excited about this one. Yes, I know your probably thinking that the summary sucks, I promise you'll actually enjoy this one...possibly)

3)Maybe this one will be called $2800 (I highly doubt it though)

Rough Draft Summary: Kagome ends up breaking the most popular guys phone at school. Now Kagome has to pay him back for the phone she broke through tasks and money. Not to mention, she hates him, the almighty Inuyasha, with a strong passion.. Kagome questions if she'll have her sanity in tact the end of this. She still can't comprehend why someone would spend $2800 on a phone though.

(Okay, 1st chapter is in the process [I must say...I love it already]. I didn't realize I didn't make a summary until now so...this is most likely not going to be the summary. I legit JUST made the summary now.)
