Ch. 2 The Hobo
"W wh wh wha?" Kagome stuttered wondering if she had heard right.
"I meant you would not have to do so much work, it's not like I want you to be there, with me and um you know you would have Sango and Shippou and Miroku and other people…" Inuyasha babbled on trying to cover his blunder.
'Of course' Kagome thought 'he he like he would want me to be there with him, would he? No of coarse not I'm just a, just a…a shard detector, "I know exactly wht you mean Inuyasha" Kagome lied and she began walking once more towards her house but this time a little bit faster.
'Whew safe' Inuyasha thought 'but she seemed almost, almost sad? Could that mean that she" Inuyasha smiled hopefully, then darkness covered his face 'what am I thinking, I'm a hanyou, Kikyo wouldn't accept me, and Kagome deserves better, I don't deserve someone as sweat and kind as her, especially the way I've treated her' he lowered his head disdainfully.
He looked around Kagome had gotten way ahead of him so he ran to catch up with her. As he rounded a corner (following Kagome's scent) he stopped dead in his tracks, Kagome was talking to a guy, and, and (he just couldn't believe it, it was just so terrible) smiling at him.
'Must be Hobo' he thought and he felt a growl began to rise from his gut as Kagome giggled at what Hobo had just said. He had been to angry to pay attention to what he was saying, but now he listened in.
"so Kagome now that you better would you um kind of want to-I mean I understand if you don't want to but uh go to the movies with me?" he ended a bit hopefully looking at her with puppy dog eyes.
Suddenly three girls popped out of nowhere smiling and casually pushing Kagome closer to Hojo.
"I'd love to Hojo but I have so much studying to do" Kagome sighed 'It would be so much fun if I could just go on a regular date to the movies, and Hojo is so sweet' she thought remorsefully.
"Oh but she'd love to study with you come over around seven tomorrow night" One of the girls piped in.
"Um would you like to Kagome?" Hojo asked 'I'm not going to let her friends answer for her they just want to play matchmaker' Hojo thought smiling 'but at least her friends approve of me'.
'Yes I can actually do a normal teenager thing Kagome thought smiling and with out another thought she answered "Yes I'd love to see you then" she waved and nearly skipped home.
'It's studying and that's practical so not even Inuyasha can say- Oh my gosh Inuyasha!' she turned around just in time to see Inuyasha leap off into the air with a hurt look on his face, just beyond the sight of her friends who were to busy smiling (all of them).
She ran home 'Inuyasha, he looked hurt, but he wouldn't care I'm just a shard detector' she hurried up the steps and threw open the door, "mom where's Inuyasha?" she asked frantically.
Her mom smiled " Oh he just left he told me to tell you to have fun with hobo" she cocked her head to the side a little with the last part of the statement.
Kagome ran out to the well and hopped in, 'could he be jealous?' The last thought she had before being transported to Sengoku Jidai.
She hopped out of the well seeing Inuyasha in the Go Shinbako tree. She walked over to it and carefully climbed up the roots, "What's wrong Inuyasha?" she asked gently.
'You like that bastard Hobo', "Nothing" he said gruffly.
"Inuyasha I wasn't gonna go out with him I just anted to do a normal teen thing and I totally forgot that I was going back early, and I would've came back on time anyway, I just would have broken the date with Hojo" Kagome said not knowing if he was mad about her and Hojo or about the fact that she had said she would do something tomorrow night, when she was suppose to be here, part of her hoped it was the first reason.
"Like I care" Inuyasha said not looking at he "Do you like him?" Inuyasha slapped his hand over his mouth, too late.
"What?" Kagome said looking at him a little shocked.
'Well might as well find out' Inuyasha thought. He hopped down from the tree and stepped closer to her "Do you like him?" he asked again taking another step closer.
"Err uh" Kagome had gotten a little bit uncomfortable with how close Inuyasha was to her, not only the but also the fact that he was asking her such a personal question, 'Is it his time of the month' she wondered nearly giggling at the way it sounded, but deciding that would not be smart given the present situation,"Um well I like him as a friend, we grew up together and I only see him as a friend, even though I think he likes me"
"Kagome did you forget something" Inuyasha asked 'now that he knew Kagome didn't like the hobo he wanted to change the subject before she got around to asking him why he asked, he hated being so mean to her but she frustrated him sometimes 'do you know what it's like Kagome? To be so in love with someone so close to you but knowing that you can never have them' He thought but kept his face as stoic as possible, he had this nagging fear that she could read his mind.
"Oh my gosh your right I forgot to get my back pack" she turned and ran towards the well "be back soon" she yelled as she jumped down the well.
'You had better be' Inuyasha thought as he saw the last strands of her hair disappear down the well.
