The door bell rang and Kagome ran to answer the door. She opened it to find Kouga standing there smiling at her. She felt her heart thumping in her chest when she saw him and she smiled back at him.

"Hi, Kouga."

"Hey, Kag, ready to go?" She smiled and nodded. But then she quick turned around and yelled through the house.

"MOM!! I'M LEAVNG!!" She heard a muffled sound and then an 'ok.' She grabbed her coat and flew out the door to Kouga's car. She smirked at him as he stood there proudly beside his silver Mustang and opened the door for her.

As she walked closer to the car he bent low in a bow and she laughed out loud. She nodded her head in a dignified manner and got in the car. Kouga shut the door and slid across the hood to get to his door. She sighed happily to herself and fastened her seat belt.

On the way there they made small talk and he told her about what teachers to avoid next year. They told stories about what retarded things their friends had done and listened to music. Not once did either of them mention Inuyasha, and Kagome couldn't help but feel a little guilty about it.

All of a sudden Kagome remembered something and gasped out loud. Kouga looked at her with worry evident in his eyes.

"What? What's wrong?"

Kagome sighed and looked down into her lap guiltily. "I just remembered something."

"What did you remember?"

"Today is Inuyasha's and mine 9 month anniversary."

"So? What's wrong with that?"

"Well.....I just feel bad that it's our monthly anniversary and I'm out with another guy." *Especially when it's another guy that I have a crush on.* She felt a blush slowly reach her cheeks and she turned to look out the window. She knew Inuyasha didn't really like Kouga. He was convinced that he was out to steal Kagome away from him. Even though she would constantly say that that wasn't true.

"Kagome, if you want to cancel this with me, I'll be fine about it." Kagome looked over at Kouga carefully. "I mean, if you really feel that bad about it, I can just turn the car around and take you back home. It's really no problem."

Kagome thought about it carefully, ¾'s of her mind told her just to go home, the other ¼ told her that it didn't matter, considering Kouga was her friend and nothing was going to happen.

"Yeah, lets go. It's really not that big of a deal." She saw Kouga smile and felt the car speed up slightly.

"Ok, do you want to see X-Men 2, or Matrix Reloaded?" They were standing outside the theater looking up at the billboard.

Kagome looked over at Kouga with disbelief on her face.

"Psh, Matrix Reloaded, no competition." She smiled when he started to laugh. *I made him laugh.*

"Good, I was wanting to see that one."

She stuck her hands in her pocket to get her money and her smile disappeared. She reached into another pocket and felt nothing. Kagome went through all of her pockets twice before she sighed in defeat.

"What?"

"I guess I forgot my money." Kouga raised an eyebrow at her and she giggled. "No, really, Kouga. I was going to bring money and I forgot." Kouga started laughing again and Kagome felt herself smile.

"It's no problem, I'll pay for it." They walked up and got in line for their tickets. Kagome looked around and saw someone she knew over at the concession stand. *Kikyo* she frowned slightly.

Kikyo and Kagome use to be really good friends. Kikyo had a huge thing for Inuyasha and for awhile Kagome tried to help her get Inuyasha. But he kept saying he only liked her as a friend. And after awhile Kagome started to have a crush on him and Kikyo got mad at her because Inuyasha started to give Kagome the attention Kikyo wanted. It got to the point that Kikyo stopped talking to Kagome. After they started going out, Kikyo approached Kagome saying that she was sorry for getting mad at her and that she wanted to be friends again. She agreed but she knew that their friendship wouldn't ever really be the same as it was before.

She watched at Kikyo bought a large popcorn and a large drink and head into the theater to see The Matrix. Once Kouga bought their tickets he went to the concession stand.

"Go get us some seats and I'll get the food, ok?" Kagome nodded and heading into the theater. She put her coat down over two seats to save them and she looked around for Kikyo.

*I might as well say 'Hi' to her. She is my friend after all.* She craned her head up and slowly looked across the seats to find her. Kagome spotted her about 4 rows in front of her and took two steps in her direction before she stopped. She watched as Inuyasha made his way through the seats and sat down next to her.

*It's ok, It's ok.* She slowly breathed to herself. *They're just friends. So what if they came to a movie together? It's probably the same thing that Kouga and I are doing.* She precariously started making her way toward them to say 'hi'. But as if it was on cue Inuyasha reached over and kissed Kikyo on the cheek. Kagome stopped in horror and disbelief at her boyfriend. She felt her heart break when Kikyo giggled and returned the kiss.

Kagome slowly turned around and sat back down in the seats that she saved for her and Kouga. She couldn't close her eyes, she couldn't move, she could hardly breath. She couldn't even cry. She just felt completely numb inside. Kagome lifted her hands up to her face and starred at her fingers.

*I can't even feel them.* She rubbed her fingers into her palms. * I can't feel anything.*

"Kagome? Are you ok?"

Kagome slowly looked up to see Kouga's face. *He looks so worried.* She put her hands down on the arm rests.

"Are you ok?" he asked again. "Your face is kind of white. Are you sick?"

"N-no. I'm fine. I just..got a little dizzy. It must be the air in here or something." Kouga sat down in his seat and lifted his hand up and started waving it in front of her face.

"Are you sure? You look really sick."

"Yeah, yeah I'm sure. I'll be ok." She shuddered slightly as she felt his hand on her cheek.

"Alright, but if you start to get sick, puke in the popcorn bag." He smiled warmly at her and she forced a smile back at him.

Just then the lights dimmed and he sat back in his chair. They watched as the previews went and as the movie started. It wasn't even 20 minutes into the movie before she felt Kouga's hand squeeze hers. She looked over at his face and saw his eyes wide in shock. She followed his gaze and saw what he was looking at. Inuyasha and Kikyo were all over each other, making out in their seats. She felt herself go numb again. She couldn't take her eyes off of them, she felt herself start shaking and Kouga's arms around her trying to make her stop.

Kouga reached his hand to grab hers and pulled her up out of her seat. He picked up their coats and pulled Kagome out of the theater. The cold night air hit her hard and she felt herself getting sick. She rushed over to a trash can and threw up. After she was done she just stayed there bent over the trash can. She felt the tears start to make the way to her eyes and she turned around to come face-to-face with Kouga. He held out his cup of pop for her to drink. She reached out and grabbed the cup from his hand. She drank through the straw to get the taste out of her mouth. After she was done she turned and threw the cup into the trash. Kagome turned back around and felt Kouga start to hug her. He wrapped his arms around her and let her cry into his shoulder.

*It hurts so much* She thought to herself. She gripped onto his back and let herself cry. She felt his hand petting her back and heard him cooing at her.

"Shh, Kagome. I'm so sorry. Calm down, I'm here." Kagome backed away from him slightly and wiped the tears from her eyes. Kouga's hand reached up and started caressing her cheek again. She reached up with her hand to place it over his and leaned into his hand. She closed her eyes and instantly felt better feeling him touch her. She slowly opened her eyes and smiled at him.

"Thank you, Kouga."
