Disclaimer: I do not, have never, and probably will never own Inu-Yasha, I do however own Inu Yasha (learn about him in this chapter) and anything else I lay claim to (but if Rumiko Takahashi wants to use them I encourage it;)).
Missing You
"…you." Kagome just finished saying as she landed on her butt on her side of the bone eaters well. Dusting herself off quickly and forgetting what she had just said, she prepared to return to Inu-Yasha's time to sit him a few hundred times. But when she turned around, the well wasn't there anymore! She looked around for half an hour, but there was nothing except for a few overturned stones and the remains of a long rotted tree. She sat down and started trying to put the stones back together, though in her heart she knew it wouldn't work. After a while, she just gave up and started crying. Her mom, upon hearing this, came down to comfort her and figure out what was wrong.
"Kagome, dear, what's wrong?" she asked
"I-It's I-Inu-Yasha…"
"I knew that boy was trouble, yep, I knew it." Her grandpa said, coming down the stairs. Making her start crying even more.
"There's no way I could have been wrong about him! He was just like Kagome's father, he would have never done anything to hurt my daughter!"
"L-Look," Kagome stood shakily, "h-he didn't do an-anything to me, it was s-something else." She said, holding back tears and turning away so that her family wouldn't see her crying.
"Now dear, you know that you can talk to us about anything, don't you?"
"Y-Yes, mom, but right now I need to be alone." She ran up, past her family, into her room, and started to cry and cry, she tried to stop it, but now that she had started, it was all but impossible.
That night she cried herself to sleep; she just couldn't stop thinking about Inu-Yasha and all the adventures that they had been through.
The next day passed, and then the next, the days had soon faded into weeks, and weeks into months, pretty soon she was 18 and could finally think about Inu-Yasha without bursting into tears, she still thought about what had happened to him and her friends, but now she had other things to do, she had been accepted to a very prestigious college in America, and had to pack, they had said in the letter that they wrote to her that they were willing to overlook her more than numerous absences if she moved to the college immediately.
"So you're sure you can take care of the shrine yourself?" Kagome asked her mother.
"Yes, dear," she responded.
"Okay, but I'll only leave if you want me to," Kagome answered back.
"Forget about us, sis, go, get an education," her brother, now much bigger and stronger than her, said, more than a little anxious to move into his big sister's room. "Okay, squirt," she said, grinning, "Now be a gentleman and help your big sister with her bags."
"Ahh, maan, do I hav'ta?" He turned to his mother, pleading jokingly.
"Yes, son."
"Ah, okay." he said, bending down to pick up her bags, "What do you have in here, sis? Lead?"
"Ha, ha, very funny. It's just my clothes, some pictures of you two and dad, my cell, some money, and some, uh, sentimental things." (By 'sentimental things', she means pictures of Inu-Yasha and co., her bow, and the shikon shards.)
"Well," she said, getting into the car, "I'd better be off to the airport."
The trip was rather uneventful. And the flying even more so, but finally she got to America, Massachusetts, America to be exact. (Try to guess what college she was accepted to;) The first day she spent getting to know her teachers and making friends, she found a group of girls very much like her old friends, and immediately started hanging out with them, turns out, they were all very rich, second-year students, and their grades weren't even close to hers, they shouldn't have even gotten in, but money is more important than brains in this world, you know.
Anyway, they were walking and talking and talking and walking, when someone veeeeery familiar passed by.
"So, what are you girls talking about?" said that familiar face. Kagome's eyes grew wide, and her new friends started blushing furiously and dove behind her for cover.
"I-Inu-Yasha!" The man, a senior in college by the looks of him, looked just like Inu-Yasha in his human form.
"That's my name. So, who are you? I don't remember you being here last year."
"Uhh, my name's, um, Kagome! Yeah, I'm pretty sure that was it!"
"You don't even know your own name? How sad. Hey, why don't you come over to my place tonight, where we could get to know each other a bit better…" just the way he said it made Kagome look like a strawberry with black hair and a body.
"Uh, okay, I guess. But, um, where do you live?"
"Oh! Oh yeah, I don't give out my address very much, most everyone knows where I live." He scribbled down his address on a piece of paper, and put a note on the back of it. Kagome took it from him and stuck it in her backpack.
"Oh my god! You just got a date with Inu! The hottest guy in school!" her friends, giggling, whispered simultaneously as he walked off.
"Yeah, I guess…" she replied, staring quizzically at the back of his head as he walked off, wondering if this could be more than just a major coincidence.
