Chapter 4: Nick's Past
"So, when did you start playing guitar?" Kagome asked.
"I mostly just learned on my own. I listen to the radio or CD's and I play along.
"Wow. So what did you do after you left 5 years ago?"
"Well, I traveled the world. First China, then Russia, Germany, France, Spain, America, Canada, then I came back here."
"You went all that way?"
"Yep. By the way, did you get the Christmas present I gave you before I left?"
Kagome thought about the necklace and bracelet still in her closet.
"Uh, yeah. I didn't wear it because, uh. I was in a rush and didn't have time to get it." Kagome lied, but she thought the truth would be a little. much. Telling him that the jewelry reminded her of him too much might make him regret leaving in the first place, although he made it sound like he did already. Also, it sounded like she really liked him, which she didn't. She just wanted to be friends.
"Listen, if you didn't wear it because it reminded you of me, it's okay. I regret leaving already." He said. It was almost like he was reading her mind. I've worn mine every day. I never take it off."
He reached into his shirt and pulled out what looked like a dog tag and gave it to Kagome. On one side, it had a picture of Kagome and Nick, and on the other, it said "Best Friends Forever".
Kagome just stared at it for a second, then "So, uh. Ahem. Wh-Where are you staying while you're in town?"
Nick responded with "While, I wasn't sure if I would be staying here for awhile or just a few days, so I just rented a room in a hotel a few blocks away."
"Oh, well, why don't you stay at my place? We've got an extra room for you if you want it." Kagome said, not even thinking about the special well and everything.
"Well, sure, if your family doesn't mind."
"Oh, no. They would love to have you around the house again."
"Okay. How can I turn down a free room? I'll go back to my hotel, get my stuff, and meet you back at your house, okay?"
"Fine with me."
Nick paid for the coffee, and they got up and left the cafe.
Nick said "Hey Kagome."
Kagome turned towards him. "Yeah?
"May our paths cross in the future, ok?"
Kagome smiled. "Yeah."
Nick turned the corner and disappeared. Just then Kagome remembered.
"Oh no! The well!" Then she turned and ran toward her house.
Then a voice came from the way Nick just turned. "Yes, she invited me to stay at her place. Everything is going according to plan." Then there was an evil chuckle.

Oh no, what could this mean? Ha ha, only I know, since I'm the writer, and I'll never tell anyone unless my demands are met! HAHAHA! Oh, sorry. Time for my 6:00 Ritalin.
