shikome kido mi ~ Yeah, those fics annoy me too, and I'm trying to avoid doing that in this fic. Though I might want to mention that I was SEVERLY ill when I posted this, so I might have been delusional as well. Thanks for telling me how to change my profile its realli nice of you! ^_^ Don't worry, there will be loads of stuff happening in the present as well as stuff showing how their relationship changed.
Junketsu ~ Errr. LoLz. I;m glad you like my story so much. Here's your update! Don't worry this won't be one of those heres-a-nice-plot-oops- suddenly-decide-to-stop-writing-and-leave-all-u-guys-hangin. With this much response I'll be sure to finish this story.

I'll try to update tomm! IF I GET REVIEWS! I love them!
Summer Rain
Last Time on Can't Go Back! ~ (When he finally regained his ability to speak, he expressed himself with an eloquent, "WHAT THE F***!!!!")
Sesshoumaru and Kagome looked up from their positions on the ground; identical shocked expression decorating all of their faces.
Sesshoumaru managed to collect himself in the space of a heartbeat. Quickly slipping back on his cold, emotionless mask and standing in one fluid motion, Sesshoumaru reached down to help drag up a still unnerved Kagome.
Before the intruders could make another move Sesshoumaru was standing and striding towards the door, with a stunned Kagome following.
Unlike Sesshoumaru, Kagome was blushing furiously, and still attempting to get her bearings.
'INUYASHA!' she mentally screamed to herself 'What is he doing here?!?! I left that part of my life behind a long time ago! What is he doing here and who is that with him!?! This is so embarrassing'
While Sesshoumaru was just as embarrassed as Kagome, possibly even more so for being caught acting so unusually, he had the self-presence not to reveal even a hint of his inner abashment in his cool demeanor as he confidentially walked to the door of his apartment.
~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~
'What was HIS Kagome doing sitting on top of his BROTHER in his apartment?!?!?!' Inuyasha mentally fumed as he saw Sesshoumaru stand and help a very surprised Kagome up.
'But then again, she wasn't really HIS anymore, was she.'
* * * * * * * * Flash Back * * * * * * * * * * *
A heavy summer rain was drenching everything in sight. It seemed oddly appropriate, as if the very sky was ripping open and crying.
A 17-yr. old Kagome stood facing Inuyasha with her usually jovial eyes filled with sorrow. The pouring rain making it impossible to see the tears that were flowing down her crushed face.
"Why?" she asked.
Though, he could not give her an answer, at least not one that was worthy of her. He merely stood in front of her his amber eyes locked with hers locked, hoping that somehow they could explain or at least portray the apology that he couldn't.
"I trusted you, Inuyasha. I gave you everything that I could! My heart and soul! I held nothing back from you! I was ALWAYS there for you, and I always trusted you! How could you betray me! You told me that you would protect me forever! Make sure that no one would ever hurt me again! But you never protected me from yourself! You betrayed me and broke my heart, Inuyasha!
You broke my trust!"
She screamed, her spirit broken.
Inuyasha looked at her. His best friend, his now ex-girlfriend.
She looked as if the world had tumbled down around her, crushing her spirit.
This girl who had mended his broken heart, who had shown him a world of light and happiness that never would have been able to find otherwise, who always seemed to have a smile just for him even when the world did its worst to her.
She had bared her soul to him, even given him her first kiss. She had stayed by his side even at his worst, when no one else would.
And he had betrayed her.
"Why?" she whispered. Her head hung down, letting her now soaking hair cover her face, so that he could no longer see her face.
He whispered the phrase that he knew would make her understand. That would prove his betrayal of her. "I love her, Kagome. I love Kikyou."
He saw her shoulder slump in defeat.
"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry," he whispered, every word ringing with truth, before he turned and walked away, leaving a beaten Kagome behind him.
* * * * * * * End Flash Back * * * * * * * * *
'She moved right after that. Her mom sent her to another boarding school after she found her crying in the shrine's well house and found out what happened. It's a miracle I got any of her friends to tell me that much. I never got to see her again.. What is she doing here now?!?!' thought Inuyasha, 'Somebody up there must really hate me'
(^.^)(^.^) ~ (^.^)(^.^) ~ (^.^)(^.^)
I saw that on another fic and I thought it was really cute, so from now on I'm gonna end my fics with it.
See! No cliffie, well sorta no cliffie. Please Read and REVIEW!!!!!
READ ~ I don't know that much about the school system in Japan, so I bases this upon the one in America, even though this fic is set in Japan. Sorry, minna-san, but I am an American. Besides I;m the omnipotent author and this is MY AU fic. I;m working under the assumption that Kagome's birthday is in the summer (even though I know that it isn't) and so she'd be 17 when she starts her senior yr in high school. And 18 when she started college. Sesshoumaru would be 23 or 4 in this fic.
Btw I just realized that I spelled Pheonix wrong and that it was supposed to be Phoenix.
Do you guys think that I should change it even though PhOeNiXsToRm looks worse than PhEoNiXsToRm?????
I need your op!!!
Shippou ~ Author no baka. You can't even spell your own name right,
PhEoNiXsToRm/ PhOeNiXsToRm ~ Hey! It's confusing! Be nice!
Shippou ~ Why should I you havn't even put me in your fic yet and I;m the cutest one in the group!
PhEoNiXsToRm/ PhOeNiXsToRm ~ Calm down Calm down! You'll come in eventually! You can't rush these things *cough* stupid kitsune *cough*
Shippou ~ OK, ::smiles adorably with puppy eyes::
PhEoNiXsToRm/ PhOeNiXsToRm ~ Awww. ::grabs kitsune in crushing hug::
Shippou ~ Can't. Breathe. Help.
