Falling For the First Time

I'm so happy for finally finishing their spring break weekend. Now they are headed back to the last six weeks of school. Cool right? N*E*ways writing this fic is absolutely exhausting sometimes but often it can be cool. I love checking my e-mail to find wonderful reviews and constructive criticism. Though there are sometimes where I can't pull myself to finish these fanfictions. Eventually reviews pour in from different people asking me to continue and of course I do. I'm sorry for boring you with my speech, but I had to get it all out. Thank you faithful reviewers, it was you who helped me continue this story. NOW ON WITH THE STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kagome jumped out of bed and put on her school uniform. One more day till her birthday, she would be sixteen and legal to drive. She picked up her backpack and went outside to see Sesshomaru waiting for her at her front gate. She blinked twice and rubbed her eyes, she couldn't believe he had walked over to her house. He turned and saw Kagome, he smiled and Kagome blushed.

"You walked over to my house", said Kagome.

"Well I decided you had a birthday coming up so what the heck", said Sesshomaru with a cool and collected smile.

"Oh", said Kagome.

They walked to school together and talked about her soon to be birthday. They had come early and decided to wait in the park across the street from the school. Kagome was itching to find out what Sesshomaru had bought her. She knew he was not one to be tricked so easily.

"Sessho-Kun what did you get me for my birthday?", asked Kagome her eyes sparking like a curious cat.

"Wait and find out", said Sesshomaru looking up at the clouds then at Kagome.

"Well if you won't tell me what you got me, at least tell me where you'll be having my party", said Kagome.

"Just a little get together at a restaurant, I guess", said Sesshomaru no emotion in his voice at all.

"WHAT!!!!!!!!!!", growled Kagome turning red with anger.

"Spending time with your friends and family should be enough....... Right?", said Sesshomaru getting hold a of Kagome's hand and crossing the street to school.

"Yeah, you're right. I don't need to have a fancy place to have my party", said Kagome a little upset.

In first period Kagome stayed quiet and kept to herself. Sango would turn around and talk to her but Kagome would not answer her. Kagome felt upset at the fact Sesshomaru seemed like he didn't care for her birthday at all. It seemed none of her friends cared. They first five periods ended the same Kikyo and Sango talking about the latest scandal, and Sesshomaru and Inuyasha, including Miroku asking Kagome what was wrong with her.

Lunch came and Kagome didn't pick up her lunch tray, instead she lay her head on her hands and closed her eyes. Her friends came in and noticed Kagome alone.

"Kagome you doing anything after school?", asked Sango.

"Yeah, homework", said Kagome trying to sound the least bit interested though she was.

"Oh just asking", said Sango eating some ramen.

Kagome got angry and turned to Sesshomaru who sat beside her and gave her a long emotionless stare.

"What's the matter with you?", asked Kagome with a growl.

"Nothing", said Sesshomaru turning to look at Inuyasha chug down two bowls of ramen to make Kikyo laugh.

School ended and Kagome caught a bus home. She entered her house and found her mother quickly making dinner.

"What's the rush mom?", asked Kagome sitting on the staircase outside the kitchen.

Kagome's mom gasped then answered her daughter.

"Kagome dear your scared me", said her mother.

"Will you please answer me?", asked Kagome her eyes shadowed by her hair.

"Well I have a meeting to be at", said her mother quickly.

"You've never had a meeting before", said Kagome picking through her backpack and pulling out her math book.

"Well Sota's teacher wants to have a meeting about Sota's outstanding performance in school", said Kagome mother picking up her purse from the kitchen table.

"How corny is that", mumbled Kagome.

"What was that Kagome?", asked her mother.

"Nothing", said Kagome picking up her backpack and heading upstairs.

Kagome heard her mother call her down for dinner then heard the door slam, signaling her mothers exit. Kagome made her way down to the kitchen to find a bowl of hot kuri. She stared at it then turned around and stared at the refrigerator. She was afraid to open the door. She laughed to herself, who ever heard of a teenaged girl afraid to open her refrigerator door. She knew the reason why............. Every year her mother would make her birthday cake a day before her birthday. Kagome stared long and hard at the door handle; she reached forward and held the handle. The cold handle burned against her warm skin.

'If I open it and don't like what I see I'll be upset', thought Kagome.

She pulled it open and found everything else you find in a fridge except her cake. She sighed, what if everyone did forget about her birthday. Her own mother, boyfriend and best friends forgot. Maybe as you get older it becomes less important.

"I'm over the hill to old to count", said Kagome sitting down at the table and eating her now cold kuri.

After her meal Kagome went up to take a shower. She sat in her tub and let her body soak in the water. She then scrubbed her hair softly with some coconut smelling shampoo. She then stood up and dried herself; she looked in the full-length mirror and snorted. She pulled on some dry Hello Kitty pajamas and some Hello Kitty night socks and slippers. She walked into her room and took out her homework; she finished it in a few moments and then laid down on her bed.

Buyo purred loudly as Kagome rubbed his ears lightly. She stared at her laptop and at her buddy list, all her friends were on but no one talked to her. Kagome's mother came in later and went straight to her room and to bed. Later Grandpa came and told Kagome to sleep. Kagome sighed then fell asleep around eleven thirty or so.

!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!@!

Kagome woke up to the sound of her alarm clock buzzing, she turned it off and got dressed. She went down and smelled scrambled eggs.

"Ah, Good morning Kagome", said her mother sweetly.

"Ohayo", said Kagome.

Kagome stood around and watched her family continue with their everyday lives and pay no attention to her. She sighed and decided not to drop hints, it was her birthday and that's all that mattered. Kagome left the house and expected to see Sesshomaru there. He wasn't, and she walked to school by herself,all alone. She walked into first period and saw her friends laughing and carrying on. Sesshomaru noticed her and smiled.

"Hello Kagome!!", said Inuyasha cheerfully.

"Hey Inuyasha", said Kagome glumly.

"What's up with you today?", asked Inuyasha.

"It's her birthday", said Sesshomaru.

Kagome smiled, he was the only one that remembered.

"Thank you Sessho-kun", said Kagome happily planting a kiss on his lips.

"OH YEAH!!!!", said Inuyasha finally remembering.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAGOME!!!!!!!!!!!!", said her friends all together.

"Thank you all", said Kagome happily.

All went well that time but later it seemed that they all soon forgot.............................
