"MOM!", Kagome screamed as she walked into her house, "have you seen Inu Yasha?"
"No, isn't he supposed to be in school?" Mrs. Higurashi yelled back.
"I don't know… we got into a fight today…" Kagome felt really guilty. |I don't like Hojo at all…Inu Yasha is twice the man Hojo could be… But that gave him NO right to bladder things like that in front of the whole class… OMG! Its all my fault…|
"And? He probably tore the school down, huh?" Mrs. Higurashi chuckled.
"No… he disappeared…", Kagome hung her head shamefully, "And its all my fault… I over reacted…"
"Awww… hunny, come here and tell me what happened." Mrs. Higurashi patted a seat on the sofa next to her.
"Well…" Kagome said as she sat down, "Inu Yasha had to give a bio in front of the class…" After she finished explaining her mom gave her a you-really-blew-it-this-time look.
"So he didn't show up for the rest of the day?"
"Nope, I waited an hour for him after school. But he wasn't there. He's probably sulking up in a tree somewhere…YEAH!" |Of course! He must have gone back to his time, there are PLENTY of trees there! That dolt, am I gonna give it to him when I see him- making me worry so much.| Kagome felt reassured.
"Mom, I'll be in a sec. I think he went back into his time."
"Of course. Hunny, your so smart sometimes." Mrs. Higurashi hugged her daughter and went back into the kitchen to resume making dinner. Kagome headed back to her room to deposit her books, homework, etc. when the door bell rang.
"I got it!" Kagome practically ran to the door. |That's sure to be Inu Yasha. Don't look so hopeful, Kagome! Look bored as if you didn't know he was gone.| She calmed down and flattened her ruffled hair and clothes. She pulled open the door and it revealed, to her dismay, Hojo.
"Hey Kagome." Hojo smiled shyly.
"Hey Hojo, what are you doing here?" Kagome said impatiently. Hojo obviously didn't notice because he kept on smiling.
"I was wondering whether you recovered from ahh… mono yet. " Hojo blushed a bit.
Kagome was furious. Of all the excuses her grandfather had to make, a kissing diease just had to be it. "Uhh… yeah! I did." She smiled falsely.
"Oh! That's great!" Hojo congratulated her. Kagome rolled her eyes in her mind. |Its not fatal you idiot|
"Thanks Hojo." Kagome said politely.
"Since you're recovered, do you want to go, I don't know, on a date? Tonight?"
"Umm… Sure! I'd love too!" Kagome tried her hardest to make it look like a happy smile. She hid her disgust. |Crap! I really gotta get lessons from Inu Yasha to say 'no.'|
"Great I'll pick you up at 7:00!" Hojo smiled again and left. Kagome sighed. |I guess I better not stay to long at the Feudal Age…|
"Kagome? Who was that? Was it Inu Yasha?"
"No mom, it wasn't…"

"Hey Sango, Shippou, Miroku!" Kagome ran toward her friends.
"HEY KAGOME!" They all yelled in unison.
"Hey you guys, have you seen Inu Yasha?" Kagome asked way too hopefully.
Miroku pouted, "I never heard to say, *high pitched voice* Hey, have you ever seen MIROKU?"
"Shut up" Sango said automatically.
"If I did, you wouldn't be there to hear it would you?" Kagome countered.
"Uhh…" Sango laughed out loud.
"Well… Have you guys?"
"No… sorry. Why? Is something the matter?" At this Kagome burst into tears.
"Its all my fault! I got mad at him for practically no reason and slapped him…hard", Kagome sobbed.
"So?", Miroku grinned innocently, "I get slapped all the time. See watch." Miroku's hand wandered. *slap* Miroku rubbed his cheek, "See? All the time." Sango fumed and blushed at the same time.
"Its not that! He's just… gone! I can't find him anywhere."
"He's not there", Shippou concluded. He hadn't said much since.
"How do you know?"
"Because if he was, he'll be comforting you by now, remember? He cant STAND tears. " Shippou rolled his eyes.
"You're right. I have to get back to my time. I have a date with Hojo." Kagome dried her tears on her sleeve. Everyone's attention turned to Kagome at her last words.
"A date?" everyone chorused.
"Yeah… With Hojo, I don't like him much, but I just don't know how to say no. Anyways I got to go…"
"Have fun!"
"Bye!" *slap*

"Crap, Its 7." Kagome was dressed in a long sleeve black dress that reached her ankles. She didn't put on much make-up, she wasn't in the mood to. She was really depressed, thus the black dress. She grabbed her purse and ran toward the door. Hojo was there, on time. |No excitement… Mr. Perfect|
"Wow. Kagome you look…" Hojo blushed, "nice." |Nice. Nice? That's the best he could do? Hmph… but then again, its not like I dressed up.|
"Thanks"
"Shall we go?" Hojo held out his arm. Kagome nodded and held his arm as he led her to the car.
"Have a great time!" Her mother waved at them.
"Bye, Mom!" Kagome called. |Am I gonna miss you.| Hojo held the car door open for her. She got in. Kagome turned her attention back to Hojo as he started to say something.
"Kagome, I thought we should first eat then maybe we call ummm…" Hojo trailed off, thinking what they could do next. He couldn't see Kagome roll he eyes in the darkness.
"Where do you want to eat, Kagome?"
"You didn't make reservations?" Kagome asked.
"Uhhh…" |Well, he's not THAT perfect.|
"Don't worry about it."
"So where do you want to go?"
"Why don't you choose?"
Hojo grinned, "Alright, how about uhh… that one?!" He immediately braked at the entrance of a romantic looking restraunt. Kagome let out a small yell. Hojo apologized frantically.
"Im sorry!" Hojo repeated, "its just that this seems to be the perfect restraunt. Like it was just there for US."
"Don't worry Hojo. Lets just go in."
They didn't hold hands this time. Hojo still seemed embarrassed.
"Welcome! Lemme guess, a table for our young couple?" , A waitress bowed.
"Yep", Hojo smiled idiotically. Kagome nodded.
"Right this way." She led them to a table practically in the middle of the whole restraunt.
"Im sorry but this is the only table left." the waitress informed regretfully, noticing Kagome's discomfort. Hojo, however, looked as if this was the best table ever. They sat down.
"Well, this seems like a wonderful table doesn't it? I don't know what was that waitress talking about." Hojo smiled. |He's such an idiot.|
"Yeah-" Kagome stopped abruptly. She thought she heard her name from behind and turned around. And there was… INU YASHA?!?! He was dining with another girl. Kagome was about to charge over there and strangle him to death when she noticed the girl's face.
"I-Is that m-me?" Kagome looked stricten. The fake-Kagome noticed her and frowned for a second. She quickly started an interesting conversation with Inu Yasha, distracting him. Kagome stomped her way through the crowd toward the 'couple.' The fake-Kagome's eyes widened and she tried to usher Inu Yasha out the door. But the stubborn Inu Yasha wasn't done eating and refused to move. The fake-Kagome was really scared as the real Kagome got closer. She could actually hear their conversation.
"Kagome! Im not done eating yet!" |Soo… no wonder I couldn't find Inu Yasha, that girls been impersonating me! That bitch! Shes gonna get it.| Kagome was a few feet away when we felt someone grab her hand. She turned around and saw Hojo, he was looking… angry.
"Im your date, not Inu Yasha." His voice was cold.
"B-But" Kagome didn't know what to say. She tried to look at Inu Yasha again but Hojo snatched her chin away from that direction. She bit his hand and ran toward Inu Yasha's table. But to her amazement and dismay, they were gone.
"W-Wha?" She looked back at Hojo. He smirked evily and dragged her toward the car.
