One Last Chance

Chapter 3- Back in the Future

Kagome climbed from the well, still trying to hold back her tears. She couldn't let her family see that she was hurt, she wouldn't say anything about Inuyasha… or the Feudal Era for that matter. She'd just go on with her 'normal' life here in the present. Walking quickly to her room, not wanting to talk to anyone, she wiped angrily at her eyes. 'He doesn't care about me, so why should I care about him? Stop crying Kagome… It won't help anything!' She quietly shut her bedroom door, and stood before her mirror. Her knees were almost black with dirt, and her uniform was in desperate need of a wash. Her hair was a total mess, and her face was streaked with tears. She walked over to the closet and pulled out a clean outfit, and headed for the bathroom.

Stepping out of the shower and putting on her uniform, more thoughts began to run through Kagome's head. 'Inuyasha…' and that was as far as it got. "Stop it!" she growled. "There's no point in thinking about him at all he never loved you, and he never will! Just forget about him." 'But I can't…' The voice in her head wouldn't stop, she needed to calm down. She ran her brush through her hair, and then headed back to her room. She flicked on her radio and sat down on her bed, closing her eyes and concentrating on the words. She felt tears well up in her eyes and spill down her cheek as it played love song after love song. She reached over to flick off the radio when something new caught her ear.

Evanescence- Everybody's Fool

Perfect by nature
Icons of self-indulgence
Just what we all need
More lies about a world that

Never was and never will be
Have you no shame? Don't you see me?
You know you've got everybody fooled

Look here she comes now
Bow down and stare in wonder
Oh how we love you
No flaws when you're pretending
But now I know she

Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

Without the mask
Where will you hide?
Can't find yourself
Lost in your lies

I know the truth now
I know who you are
And I don't love you anymore

It never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

It never was and never will be
You're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool.

Kagome turned the radio off and closed her eyes, reciting the words of the song in her mind. 'That's exactly how I feel about… Inuyasha. Of course, I can never look past how much I really care about him but…' She had to stop thinking about him, it was killing her inside, and the radio wasn't any help. 'Maybe going to Wacdnald's with Yuuka, Eri, and Ayumi would help…' She decided it would, and walked over to her desk, where she had some money lying out. She grabbed it and walked out of her room to the phone, calling up Eri's house.

"Moshi moshi?" Eri answered the phone, Kagome could hear girls talking in the background.

"Hey Eri, it's Kagome."

"Oh my gosh, hi Kagome! You've been sick for so long, Yuuka, Ayumi, and I were just getting ready to come over to check up on you."

"Well, I'm feeling much better, and I thought that maybe we could go to Wacdnald's…"

"Of course, hang on a second." Eri began talking to their friends in the background, which was followed with agreements from the two. "We'll meet you there, okay?"

Kagome agreed and hung up the phone. She called out that she was leaving and walked out the door. 'I hope they don't ask me about Inuyasha… I'll probably start crying again… This is gonna be so hard… How will I ever live without him?' "Happy, that's how!" she told herself. "Here there's no Kikyo, he can't hurt you anymore." She nodded her head agreeing with herself. 'What's wrong with me? I'm talking to myself. Can I possibly be that lonely without him?' She shook her head trying to clear the thoughts, and kept heading for Wacdnald's, completely ignoring the well-house and Gosinboku tree as she walked by them.

Ok, I know this one was kind of short, too, but it's still a little longer. And just to let you know, this is not a songfic, I just put in that song for when she was listening the radio. Please review and tell me what you think!
