Hi! Welcome to my second fic! It's a bit boring in the beginning, but I promise that it's going to be tons better in the later chapters! It'll be a short fic, I'm not sure how many chapters. It's based in the song "Pure Snow". Here's the summary again:

Kagome, age seventeen, has sworn to avoid boys in order to reach her goal of becoming a doctor. But Inuyasha Takahashi is the new student and ends up dating one of her best friends, Kikyo. But somewhere along the way she fell in love with her best friend's boyfriend. How will it end?

I hope you enjoy! Happy reading!

Chapter 1

Kagome contemplated on the past few years on a park bench, watching the playground full of children. Her headphones were tucked in her ear, playing a song, a song that practically told of her life. She knew that her life was so close to not being the way it is today. In fact, it was around this time ten years ago.

Her soft dark brown eyes scanned the horizon, feeling the tranquility of the scene. The leaves were of various warm colors, red, orange, and yellow. Sounds of quacking reached her ears came from the geese and ducks resting in the pond's waters. A chilly, fall breeze made her dark raven tresses waver into her face. As she patiently tucked the strands of hair behind her ear, her mind drifted back, back to where she was a carefree seventeen year old student in high school.

Konayuki ga maiorite kita machi de

Toiki ga shiroku sora ni hodokete yuku

Anata no koto omoeba doushite

Konna ni mune ga atsuku naru

In this city where a powder snow comes dancing down

My sigh fades white up to the sky

When I think about you, I don't know why but

My heart gets so warm…

Ten years ago

Kagome quietly closed the door to her house. Her mother and grandfather were bedridden with the flu and were resting. She crossed her arms in warmth as frigid autumn wind blew. She had foolishly left her thicker jacket on her desk chair and now it was too late to retrieve it. Her legs were no better, with the uniform the school required its students to wear. The forest green skirt was short, too short in her opinion but thankfully, the long sleeves of the sailor-like top helped. The young girl couldn't wait until she reached the heated rooms of her school. Kagome couldn't help but envy her younger brother, who was able to take the bus. He was in a warm vehicle, while she was freezing.

Her footsteps were muffled in the piles of beautiful colored leaves that had fallen to the ground from the trees that towered above her. The skies were a sea blue, with a couple of birds flying in v-shaped formations. She checked her watch, to find that she had twenty minutes until class started. Her feet sped up; she had wanted to get there a little early, since she, being the typical teenager, wanted to talk to her friends.

Sounds of the noisy students reached her ears as she approached the walled in school yard. Scattered everywhere was the many students that attended this school, girls in short skirts and green sailor tops while the young men were present in dark blue pants and a button up shirt.

"Kagome, over here!" A voice called out from the clusters of students. Kagome directed her head towards the voice that was heard and saw her group of friends waving to her. Kagome wasn't exactly popular, but she had a lot of friends due to her kind nature.

"Morning Sango, how are you?" Kagome asked politely. Sango smiled, and responded,

"Fine, wait till you hear about this!" The group of girls then quieted down and leaned in closer to hear what Sango was saying, wanting to hear the latest gossip.

"We're going to have a new student in our class today! I found out in the office while I was filing for the secretary." Sango said, which caused the group of girls erupt with giggles and whispering among themselves. Then one of the girls piped up, Kikyo. She was one of the nicest, smartest girls in school and best friends with Kagome and Sango.

"I hope he's cute!" Her face then blushed; she wasn't used to be talking about boys. She was one of the quiet ones, who like Kagome, focused on their studies.

Kagome and Sango eventually separated themselves, going inside their school to their lockers. Since Sango arrived early and had already gone to her locker, the best friends went to Kagome's locker.

After doing her combination, she accessed her locker. It wasn't decorated like most girls; it just contained two shelves for her books and a mirror. Quickly, she unloaded the books from her brown messenger bag and placed them in her locker and grabbed the books that she needed for her morning classes. But first, she had to go to homeroom. Sango was also in her homeroom, as well as many of the other girls in her group of friends. She had to admit that she didn't have much guy friends, just a couple. Let's just say, she wasn't really comfortable around them.

While Kagome was thinking about what she needed for her classes, Sango was excitedly chatting on about the new student.

"Do you think he'll be hot? Because it's about time you have a boyfriend." Kagome stood up from her knees and lifted her filled book bag then shut her locker closed.

"No Sango, you know me. I just want to concentrate on my studies now; I want to pursue my dream of becoming a doctor. Until I graduate from college, I won't be involved." At the last part, Sango said the words with her.

"Yeah yeah, you keep saying that, but by the time you wait that long, you'll be an old maid." Sango said, brushing away her speech, she was used to it. The two best friends walked from Kagome's locker up the stairs to their homeroom on the third level.

"Look, there's already a guy that likes you, Hojo remember? Why don't you give him a chance?" Sango lectured. Kagome shook her head and winced at the thought.

Sure, he was kind and all but she didn't think that their relationship would last. He even shared the same interests as her, including anime. But no, it was weird to her. She was seventeen and had not been on a date yet. Sure, her friends started dating back in the sixth grade, but she didn't want to. And she had to admit that she had a crush now and then, but she knew that the boy that she liked would never ask her out, so she left her romance life alone. But something did benefit from that, her grades were exceptional. In fact, she was rank number one in the whole senior class. And that was something to be proud of. She had accepted a prominent college which specialized in medical in which she would be attending next fall.

The two finally reached the homeroom and took their seats. The homeroom consisted of a few students from each class, freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors. The freshmen it seemed stuck together and were seated separate from the upper class men. Everyone knew everyone else, since they were placed in the same homeroom each year.

Sango and Kagome took a seat, while their teacher read off the announcements. But then Sango's talking and the teacher's talking were cut off by the sound of a sharp knock on the closed classroom door.

The principal stuck his head in and said in his deep baritone voice,

"I'm sorry to interrupt this class, but I have a new senior here and this is his homeroom." The teacher at the head of the room nodded and the principal slipped through the door, with a student following.

In short, he was probably the most handsome boy Kagome had seen. Though it seemed cliché, it was true. Most of the girls in the room were whispering and the boys held silent, examining their new competitor for girls. He had dark black tresses and the most unusual eyes. Dark violet, almost black. He was obviously well built, you could tell. He was tall, almost six feet. All in all, some girls would say he was "the perfect package".

"Class, please welcome, Inuyasha Takahashi." The teacher announced.

Little did she know, Kagome would go through a lot because of that boy, all just for love.

I know, that's a little short, but I had to introduce everyone! I hope you all enjoyed it! Tell me what you think! Ideas, comments and questions included! Thanks! And if anyone can tell me which anime "Pure Snow" by Yuko Sasaki is the opening theme to, they'll get a special mention next chapter! The lyrics will appear occasionally in this story and the last chapter will have all the lyrics. And yes, this fic was inspired by the song!

Also, details on updates will be in my bio!
