I'm sosososososossos sorry. I'm a freshman in college now and it has just been crazy trying to get everything done! So I'm going to try and finish up this story and start on it's sequel. Yes there will be a sequel; everyone send cookies to Amreld for writing a review that triggered the thought in my mind. And Amreld, you weren't whining, that was my odd way of trying to complement you. Since is being gay, pov change is actually written, in parenthesis: (POV).

Everything was moving so fast. She needed to slow down. Inuyasha...Sango...she felt like she knew these people for years instead of weeks. They just came into her life, so accepting, so welcoming; it was hard to remember that she had only a vague idea of their pasts. She should have known that Inuyasha would be angry at her for interferring in his life. She should have known that doing the right thing would only cause problems. And then! And then! She had to go and kiss Sesshomaru! Inuyasha's brother! The Ice Prince! Who was seeing a girl that harbored an unfettered hatred for her! But...it felt so right.... Kagome sighed. Life isn't supposed to be this complicated!

(POV)

Inuyasha was angry. How dare Kagome talk to Kikyo! How dare she try to make him talk to her!

"Inuyasha."

"Go away Sesshomaru!" he snarled.

"No. You will tell me why I found that girl crying in the study last night." The elder brother spoke coolly. Inuyasha rose his head to look at him.

"Kagome? She was crying? How did she get home?"

"I took her," was the reply.

"She tried to have me talk to Kikyo. Kikyo tried to say Naraku had started the rumor that she cheated on me with him. I got pissed and yelled at them and made everyone leave." Inuyasha shrugged. "Kikyo was probably lying, and Kagome shouldn't have got involved."

"It would not weigh on the conscience of Naraku to do such a thing," Sesshomaru mentioned after a moment of silence, then turned out of his brother's doorway, leaving Inuyasha to ponder his words.

After a while, Inuyasha picked up the phone, his hand hesitating over the numbered buttons. He replaced the reciever onto it's cradle and stood up, grabbing his car keys off of the nightstand. He ran a hand through his hair and proceeded to head downstairs.

(POV)

The doorbell rang. Kagome went downstairs to answer it.

(POV)

Inuyasha rang the doorbell. The chime was familiar.

(POV)

Kagome opened the door.

"Hey, what's up?" she said, surprised.

(POV)

"Can we talk?" Inuyasha asked the raven haired girl.

"Of course, Inuyasha, come in," Kikyo replied, somewhat shakily.

(POV)

"Come on in Sango," Kagome made the motions with her hand. "You look..."

Kagome stopped, unsure how to describe her friend.

"What happened last night?" Sango began, but then stopped Kagome. "Wait, Naraku got arrested last night."

Kagome gasped.

"For what?"

"Battery," Sango replied with a wave of her hand. "But tell me why Inuyasha flipped out last night."

Kagome obliged, and proceeded to recount the night before's happenings.

(POV)

Sango sat back on the couch.

"Well I don't know what to tell you. I guess just leave him to cool off a bit before you talk to him."

"Yeah, I suppose you're right Sango. But that'll be hard when I have to see him in every single class that I have tomorrow," She added.

"Sango..." Kagome hesitated. "I just moved here, and while I think of all of you as the best friends I have here, I have no idea about anyone at all."

Kagome saw the confused look on Sango's face and tried to elaborate.

"Inuyasha, his past, I don't know what went on with him and Kikyo. It wasn't my place to try and fix everything. I don't even know why I tried."

Sango looked at her friend thoughtfully before answering her.

"You know...sometimes people just click. It doesn't matter if they've known each other for a couple weeks or not. That's how we feel about you Kagome. Inuyasha, was angry because..., well because that's how he is. He cares about you Kagome, and he won't let something like this come between the friendship that he has with you." Sango stopped her speech to give Kagome a mischevious smile. "Or the relationship he wants to have with you."

"What?!" the blue-eyed girl exclaimed.

"Oh come on, like you didn't know this!" Sango had an enormous koolaid-grin on her face. "We all know you guys have a thing for each other!"

"Me and Inuyasha are just friends!" Kagome yelped.

"Yeah right! And Miroku's hand accidentally grabs people's butts 28 times a day!" Sango retorted.Kagome just smiled back weakly.

"Thanks Sango."

(POV)

Monday:

Kagome grabbed her books out of her locker when Inuyasha came up.

"Kagome!" He said joyfully, a huge smile on his face. Kagome's books were taken out of her hands and thrown back into her locker. Before she could protest, She was swept into the offending male's embrace.

"Oh, Kagome," Inuyasha said into her hair. "Thank you."

Kagome pulled away with a confused look in her eyes.

"Thank you? For what?" Her hands were still in his.

"For helping me to see. What happened between me and Kikyo was a lie, a misunderstanding," he elaborated.

"I...wh.........huh?" Did anyone ever explain what they meant around here?

"Me and Kikyo are back together!"

Inuyasha stood there with a goofy frin on his face. He seemed so...happy.

"Oh, sure Inuyasha. I just did...the right thing." Tears threatened to spill from her eyes, but fortunately Inuyasha had to get his books still, and told her he would see her in class.

The rest of the day went by in a daze. Kikyo joined Inuyasha in the classes they shared and at lunch as well. Kagome excused herself from the group and walked to the garden. She knew she would find him in there. But the question was, why did the thought of just being around him suddenly make her feel better?

(POV)

"Sesshomaru? Can I talk to you?" Kagome sat down beside him hesitantly.

"You are doing so anyways," he replied. She gave him a cross look.

"Inuyasha's back with Kikyo."

She was silent for a long time, so Sesshomaru commented.

"You are disappointed."

"I...well, yeah, kind of. It's not like I had a claim on him or anything, we were just friends." She sighed.

"But you think you care for him on another level." Kagome nodded at him. "Such emotions are for weaklings."

Kagome's temper flared at that.

"Oh really? What about your feelings for Kagura?"

Sesshomaru gave her a bland look.

"I hve no feelings for her. She served a purpose and now that I will be leaving this place in a matter of weeks, she is no longer needed."

A/N: ouch, harsh...

"And what purpose was that?" Kagome all but yelled.

"To keep those annoying females away from my person."

"I can't believe you Sesshomaru!" Kagome was yelling now. "No one is that cold or heartless! You..."

She was cut off by a pair of lips on hers. The action took her breath away. He slowly removed his face form hers, looking into her eyes.

"Kagome..." he stated simply.

"What was that for?" Sesshomaru didn't answer her question, but merely rose and walked away.

"What was that for?!" she yelled louder to his retreating back.

(fin)

Well once again, I apologize. I'll try to get this done within the next couple of weeks.
