Kagome woke up at the sound of her alarm clock. Then she realized what day it was. 'Birthday!' Kagome hopped out of bed
excitedly. 'I wish I didn't have to go to school today.' she thought as she got dressed for the day ahead. Kagome headed
down stairs to see that the only person waiting for her was Inuyasha, who was already in his school uniform. "Goodmorning
Inuyasha." she said cheerfully. Inuyasha grumbled something. Kagome smiled, "Where's everyone else?" she asked. Inuyasha
pointed to the kitchen. "They told me to go get you before your breakfast was cold." he said. Kagome nodded and headed to
the kitchen. She was greeted with a "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" from her family and a "Meow!" from her blob/cat.
Kagome sat down and was instantly greated with breakfast. Inuyasha sat down next to her and also received a similar meal.
"My grand-daughter's sixteen! I am so sad that the little girl who used to wet the bed is all grown up now!" Grandpa said
with teary eyes. "GRANDPA!" Kagome shouted blushing. Inuyasha, for once kept his mouth shut. "All right birthday girl.
Remember to come home straight after school!" Mrs. Higurashi said as Kagome and Inuyasha finished and prepared to leave
for school. "All right mom we will!" Kagome shouted as she exited the house, Inuyasha right behind her. As they walked
down the steps of the shrine, Kagome looked over at Inuyasha. "Well?" she asked. Inuyasha looked over at her. "Well What?"
"Well aren't you going to say happy birthday?" she asked expectantly. "Feh, Happy Birthday." Inuyasha grumbled not seeing
the point of it. Kagome smiled at the hanyou. After they had reached the bottom of the stairs, the two headed for the bus
stop. "Kagome!" Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi where waiting for them at the bus stop. "Don't they do ANYTHING alone?" Inuyasha
whispered. Kagome grinned, but becuase of her friends. "Happy Birthday Kagome!" they all said in unison. "Thanks guys."
As soon as they reached the three, Kagome was dragged away from Inuyasha until they were out of hearing range. "So has he
given you your present yet?" Eri asked.
Kagome shook her head. "I think he's waiting for my birthday party." Kagome told Eri. 'What else could he have been doing
with mother?' she reasoned. Eri rolled her eyes. "Not THAT kind of present. I mean a happy birthday kiss present." Kagome
looked over at Inuyasha wondering if he was hearing all of this, probably. "I take that as a no. He must be waiting for
a moment alone." Eri said. Yuka and Ayumi nodded. "We'll see you at school Kagome." Yuka said waving. "Where are you going?"
Kagome asked confused. Ayumi grinned. "We're going to leave you two alone so he'll have plenty of time to give it to you."
Before Kagome could respond the three shot away.
'Is it a tradition in this time?' Inuyasha wondered as he watched Kagome walk back towards the bus stop. He had of course
heard the conversation. Before he knew it Kagome was standing beside him finding the concrete very intresting at the moment.
'Do I just kiss her? Or am I supposed to do something else?' he wondered. 'Did he hear?' Kagome wondered as the silence
continued between the two. 'Maybe he doesn't know what to do.' Inuyasha decided he'd just go for it. "Oi Kagome." he said.
Kagome looked up at him and he quickly leaned down and kissed her, wrapping his arms around her. When they pulled away once
their oxygen ran out, Inuyasha looked at her. "Was that what I was supposed to do?" he asked. Kagome nodded smiling,
very glad for his great hearing.

Toshio watched the boy in front of him. "So you know what to do right?" The boy smirked and nodded. "Good, once you are done
the money will be in your locker."

The day past quickly for Kagome, especially since all of the boys who had been chasing after her had suddenly stopped.
Kagome looked down at her painting of her house that was now complete. Inuyasha was just finishing up on the last touches
on his castle. "It looks exactly like I remember it." Kagome said amazed by the hanyou's very good memory. He seemed to have
added every little detail that most people wouldn't have noticed if they saw the castle. Inuyasha smirked as he dabbed a
little more paint on the canvas as he finished his final copy of the painting. The paper he had used to paint the rough
draft was laying discarded next to him.
Kagome picked up the discarded paper. "You should keep this." she said handing it to him after he set down his paints from
the now completed painting. Inuyasha placed the picture in his folder and set it on his chair before taking his and Kagome's
paintings up to the front. Mrs. Kamanagi smiled at Inuyasha. "Are you done? Very well place them near the window to dry."
Inuyasha nodded andheaded over to the window where he set down the paintings carefully. Inuyasha walked back to his desk to
wait for the end of the hour. As he passed Mrs. Kamanagi she whispered. "I know its Kagome's birthday, so I'll dismiss you
early so you can get home." Mrs. Kamanagi was definately the coolest teacher in school. Inuyasha said his thanks before
walking over to where Kagome was sitting.
"Come on Kagome, Mrs. Kamanagi said we could go since its your birthday." Kagome smiled delighted and the two headed out the
door while the rest of the class gave them jelous glares. "Hey Mrs. Kamanagi its my birthday too!" said one of the students
jokingly.
****************************************************************************************************************************
As the two neared their lockers, Inuyasha realized something. "I left my folder in Mrs. Kamanagi's class, I'll be right back."
Inuyasha told Kagome who nodded and headed towards her locker. In the shadows a boy watched smirking. 'Too easy.' he thought
as he watched Inuyasha walk back to retrieve his folder. The boy walked out of the shadows towards Kagome. "Hey Kagome."
he said smiling. Kagome looked back surprised. "Horo? What are you doing out of class?" she asked a little nervous.
Horo ran a hand through his short blonde hair (Think evil looking Hojo). "Now that your boyfriends gone, you can finally
show how you really feel about me." Horo said. Kagome took a step back. "I don't know what you mean Horo, I hardly know you."
Horo closed the distance between them and mentally counted how long it would take for Inuyasha to get back. 'About now.'
he decided and grabbed Kagome, pulling her into a kiss. Kagome desprately tried to pull away, but Horo pressed he against
a row of lockers. Grabbing the side of his waist Kagome tried to push Horo back. 'Inuyasha where are you?' she praid the
hanyou would come and rescue her.
Just then Inuyasha turned the corner to see Horo and Kagome kissing, and from where he was standing it looked very much like
Kagome was enjoying it. Inuyasha stared at the couple in shock, his shock quickly turned to sadness and Inuyasha felt his
heart break at the sight. 'She chose a human over a half-breed.' Inuyasha turned around and started walking towards to school
exit with his head down. He didn't feel anything, his mind and heart were numb from the sight of Kagome in the arms of another
man. 'Betrayed again.' he thought feeling nothing at the thought.
****************************************************************************************************************************
Or atleast thats what WOULD have happened if it wasn't for a few things. The most important reason was that Inuyasha trusted
Kagome completely now. How can you love without trust? It was what had proven that he had never truely loved Kikyo. The second
reason was that Inuyasha had demon senses. He could smell the fear on Kagome and the saltiness of tears that were soon to come.
He could tell that the kiss was forced and unwanted. The third reason was that Inuyasha's youkai side was exerting itself.
To this side of him it didn't matter whether the kiss was wanted or unwanted, it considered the boy competition, not
differenciating between human and youkai. The boy was a male competing for the desired female and Inuyasha's youkai side
wasn't about to ignore such a deliberate challenge to him being the dominant male.
With all three of these things working together, Inuyasha reached Horo and lifted him up by the scruff of his uniform in
less than a second after seeing the two together. Horo didn't even know what hit him as he found himself pressed against a
row of lockers and a good foot off the ground. Kagome gasped for breath as she watched the furious hanyou. Kagome could see
that he was dangerously close into transforming into a full youkai. If that happened everyone in a mile was good as dead.
This was not actually true, at the moment the only people who would die where every male over the age of twelve, but that
really wouldn't make Kagome feel much better.
Horo was struggling against the hanyou's iron grip to no avail. Kagome could hear Inuyasha growling faintly and his eyes
were slightly tinged red. Kagome gently reached out and touched Inuyasha's shoulder. He jerked around violently with his
fangs bared until his youkai side and human side reconized who it was. His human side reconized her as Kagome, the one he
was in love with. His youkai side reconized her as a potential mate and immediately relaxed at her touch. Kagome reached up
gently and stroked one of his cheeks.
His youkai side relaxed more and the true Inuyasha regained control. Inuyasha blinked as he saw Kagome and then he turned
to Horo who was still a foot above the ground staring at Inuyasha terrified. Kagome wrapped one of her arms around Inuyasha's
arm gently giving Inuyasha the strength to control the rage his youkai blood was feeling towards Horo. "Why did you kiss her?"
Inuyasha growled glaring at Horo. Horo gulped. "T-Toshio was paying me and some other guys to like Kagome and try to screw
up your relationship. He said he'd pay me $1000 if I'd kiss her in front of you." Horo sputtered out. "TOSHIO!?" Inuyasha's
grip on Horo's uniform loosened, but at the last second Inuyasha regained his grip on the boy.
Kagome gulped. Inuyasha was radiating anger and it seemed like he was about to focus it on Horo. Horo nodded. "You know the
day we got school off? He put a note in my locker telling me he'd give me $100 if I helped break you up. Then he called me
today and told me to kiss her. Please don't kill me!" Horo said. Inuyasha just snorted. "Pitiful." With that he lifted Horo
farther up and dropped him in a conviently placed garbage can. "Lets go home Kagome. I'll deal with Toshio Monday." he said
firmly. Kagome nodded and took his hand as the two exited the school building. Horo picked a banana peel of his head and
sighed in relief.
**************************************************************************************************************************
Kagome got of Inuyasha's back as they reached home. She handed him his bag she had been carrying and asked "Are you ok
Inuyasha?" Inuyasha, who's youkai blood was still a little riled up simply said. "Keh I'm fine wench." He instantly regreted
his choice of words and regreted it more when he was face down on the pavement. Kagome just sighed deciding Inuyasha was just
a little angry nothing more as she listened to a string of muffled curses.
"Come on get up Inuyasha so we can go inside. Its my birthday remember." Kagome leaned down and removed the hat Inuyasha was
wearing so she could scratch his ears. His grumblings soon turned to a soft growling of pleasure. Kagome stopped scratching
and headed inside. Inuyasha got up and followed her in. "Oh Kagome! Your home early." Mrs Higurashi said looking up at the
clock. "Sota isn't here yet, so go and get ready." Kagome nodded and walked up stairs to take a bath and then change. Mrs.
Higurashi looked at Inuyasha. "Now that she's gone tell me what happened Inuyasha. I can tell my daughter's upset about
something even though she's hiding it very well."
Inuyasha looked at her mother surprised. 'I didn't notice anything wrong.' "Are you sure?" he asked. Mrs. Higurashi nodded.
Inuyasha took a deep breath and told her everything.
Well not as long as I promised sorry :(. But well I'm starting another chapter right away, I just didn't want you guys to have
to wait till 6:00 for a chapter. Please Review!
