Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha =(

Inuyasha came from a respectable family. He was rich, he was powerful, and he was the most eligible bachelor in town. He hated it. Every time he stuck so much as an arm out his front door, women would flock to it. He had been on dates before, but all of them only liked them for his money. Inuyasha was sick and tired of it, and just gave up on love altogether.

Kagome also came from a rich, powerful, respectable family. She had never heard of or seen Inuyasha in her life, and he hadn't seen or heard of her either. She used to be the most eligible bachelorette, but then her parents engaged her to Koga, who was madly in love with her. The feeling wasn't mutual, however, so Kagome wasn't exactly thrilled about marrying him in 2 weeks.

"Kagome, dearest, are you almost ready?" Kagome's mother called up the stairs, "Hurry, or you'll be late for your dress fitting."

(this sign means a thought) I don't want to go to a stupid dress fitting. I don't want to get married. I don't know what I'm doing here, when I should be running awayKagome thought. It didn't take her long to realize she should run away. She packed her bags, got the emergency ladder (the ones that fold up and you can use them to get out of a 2nd story window) out from under her bed, and used it to climb down her balcony.

Inuyasha was so bored at home. There was absolutely nothing to do there. Sure, he had a pool, a gameroom, plasma TV with satellite dish, a fencing room, and a fitness room, but those were so boring to him. And of course he couldn't go outside, he'd be attacked by girls with IQ levels lower than room temperature. But hey, why not? I'll just get one of my chauffers to drive me in the Prius. It'll be less suspicious than the limo

Kagome wasn't sure where to go. Let's see...there's the beach, the mall, no, those won't do. They'll no I'm there. But where else can I go around here? Hmmm...I know! The local coffee shop! I can always get coffee at home, so they'll never suspect me there! Kagome began to run forward. She had gotten quite a bit of distance before she realized that she had no idea where she was going. She was about to ask someone for directions when a Prius pulled up right next to her.

A silver haired boy her age got out, and the Prius sped off. She decided to ask him where the coffee shop was, since he was standing right there anyway.

"Um, excuse me, but do you know where the coffee shop is?"

Inuyasha looked at the girl straight in the eyes. Something about her made him curious, so he decided to make it his goal of the day to find out about her.

"Uh, yeah, I was actually heading down there myself. Why don't I take you myself?" "Thanks, that would be very helpful." "By the way, I'm Inuyasha." "I'm Kagome."

They didn't walk far, and it annoyed Kagome how stupid she was not to notice it before. When they got there, they both got coffee and sat down together to talk.

Inuyasha was the first to speak. "So, are you new around here?" "No, I just don't get out much." "Why is that?" "My mom keeps me inside so she can train me properly. It's annoying" Inuyasha felt sympathy for her. Proper girls are boring. Kagome spoke again, "But I decided to take fencing lessons behind her back. I think sword fighting is much more fun than learning to eat properly."

Inuyasha felt even more interested in Kagome. They talked for a little while longer-well, more like 3 hours longer, and Kagome told him about her running away. They were about to leave when to police officers came in.

"Oh no," Kagome said, "They're probably looking for me. I gotta go" "Wait," Inuyasha said before she could get away, "Why don't you come with me? I know the town better and I can help you get around." "Uh, okay, sure"

*Whaddya think? Good, bad, please-get-it-away-from-me-or-I'll-puke bad, just tell me.*
