A Promise is a Promise

Chapter 13: Identity Unveiled Pt. 2

Kagome stepped out of Yash's black corvette car. She inhaled the fresh air as she got out, her hair gently swaying from the breeze. Yash came out from the other side and went towards Kagome's side.

It was only half an hour a while ago that Yash came to pick up Kagome. She actually wanted to go, despite herself telling her over and over that she doesn't want to go. Yash came to the shrine to be greeted by her lively mother who insisted that Yash would come to eat dinner.

Yash agreed with a smirk on his face as she watched Kagome's horrified expression. He then studied her outfit which looked so stunning to her. She wore a blue sleeveless shirt that matched her shiny blue eyes and she wore black stretch pants that hugged her slim waist. He spotted the bracelet on her right wrist bringing a wide smile on his fave.

Now, here they were at the beach where Yash insisted that they go, much less likely to Kagome since she really wants to forget about Inuyasha just this once.

" So, what should we do first?" Yash asked from behind Kagome. He wore a red shirt, that was tight enough to show his muscles in his body making Kagome blush when she saw him a while ago. His red shirt was paired up with black baggy pants that were just the right size for him, his sunglasses perched on top of his dog ears.

Kagome turned around to face him and shrugged her shoulders, " I don't know. You invited me to go with you so you decide where to go."

Yash smiled, " Ok..umm...oh yeah. The cafe bar. Let's go there and grab something to eat. I'm hungry."

" Alright then," Kagome returned his smile with one of hers, " Let's go."

Kagome dragged Yash towards the nearest cafe bar. She held on to his strong, muscular arms which brought a sudden blush to Yash for their sudden contact. Her hand felt cool on his arms, bringing a slight shiver on his spine.

Kagome tried to walk as fast as she can, having a hard time because of her small, dainty feet sinking to the sand. Yash glanced sideways at Kagome who was so focused on trying not to get sand on her shoes. They soon reached the cafe bar and went in.

They spotted an empty table and approached it. Yash went on ahead of Kagome and took out the other chair, motioning for Kagome to sit there.

Kagome giggled and sat down with a remark, " I didn't know that you could actually be a gentleman."

" I can be when I'm around a beautiful girl like you," Yash winked at her.

Kagome rolled her eyes and turned her face away from him to hide the blush on her face. She retorted the remark with a snort and called the waitress that was standing beside the stool. She came strolling to them and she took out her paper and a pen and looked at the two with a smile on her face.

" Whatcha guys want?"

Kagome looked at Yash, " What do you want? I'll get whatever you want."

" Well, can you get us two chicken sandwich and two mocha boba drinks."

The girl jotted down their orders and asked, " For here, to go?"

" To go."

" Alrighty...be ready in 5 minutes."

" Thanks," Inuyasha said with a smile. He turned back to Kagome who was looking off to the distance, outside the window of the bar.

He waved his hand in front of her face, finally snapping her out of her thoughts. He then asked her what was wrong, while she just answered nothing. She doesn't really want to tell him who she's thinking about....because she of course didn't like what she was thinking about either.

She was actually comparing Yash to Inuyasha. Their resemblance to each other was very striking. Even though she hasn't seen Inuyasha for years now, she knows that Yash's features was the same as Inuyasha. The golden orb eyes, silver hair and on top of that, the dog ears.

" Let's go," Yash declared, the waitress standing beside their table, giving the food to Yash while he handed her the money.

Kagome got up from her seat and grabbed the drink and sandwich that Yash was giving to her. The two were about to head outside when they heard the waitress yell out-

" By the way....you two look really great together!"

Both teenagers blushed and headed off, without a word to each other. They walked in silence, heading towards the big rocks that were near Yash's black corvette car.


Sango ran up the shrine steps, straight to Kagome's house, passing the old well and the big Goshinbonku tree on the way. As soon as she reached the house, she knocked on the door, yelling out Kagome's name.

The shrine was pretty much deserted, Souta was nowhere to be seen, meaning that he's inside the house somewhere. She kept on knocking until she heard footsteps approaching the door. The door swung open to reveal Mrs. Higurashi's smiling face.

" Oh Sango dear, are you looking for Kagome?"

" Yeah Mrs. Higurashi, is she there?" Sango asked hurriedly, sweat was starting to trickle down her face from all the running that she's done.

" I'm sorry Sango, but she just left like an hour ago," Mrs. Higurashi replied.

" Oh shit," Sango covered her mouth and apologized. " Sorry, umm...do you know where she went?"

" Yes honey, she went with Inu- I mean Yash to the beach," Mrs. Higurashi sweatdropped at the mistake that she almost made. Sango didn't seem to notice, her mind too focused on finding Kagome.

" Oh ok, thanks Mrs. Higurashi. Bye," Sango waved and headed off, while Mrs. Higurashi sighed, relieved that Sango was gone.

Sango rushed back down the shrine and headed to the bus stop to go to the beach. Kagome has to know the truth. That Yash is actually Inuyasha. One thing is bothering her though. Why did Inuyasha lie to Kagome about his identity?

Sango was too preoccupied on her thoughts that she didn't even see Miroku's car parked right in front of her. It was only then that she noticed it when Miroku honked his car.

" Going anywhere my lady?" Miroku asked from inside.

Sango's face brighten up. She approached the car and said, " Miroku, can you please do me a favor?"

" Anything for my lovely maiden," Miroku winked.

Sango rolled her eyes, " Anyways, can you drop me off at the beach? You know the one where Yash brought us last time."

" Yeah, sure." Miroku unlocked the passanger door and in went Sango. She tucked her seatbelt on and cradled her backpack on her lap.

" Thanks Miroku."

" No problem, but why the rush?"

" I have something important to tell Kagome."

" Kagome's at the beach?" Miroku asked, putting the car in gear.

" Yeah, and she's with Yash."

Miroku's car sped off the road. He glanced sideways at Sango, " What important thing is that?"

" Something about Yash's true identity," Sango turned to look at Miroku, who's face now wears a worried expression.

" What..... true identity? " Miroku gulped. She couldn't possibly know about Yash. There's no way!

Sango sent an icy glare to him, " You know what I'm talking about right Miroku? You know Yash more than I do...or should I say Inuyasha."

Miroku's eyes widened, he tried to focus at the road but couldn't help to notice Sango's glare piercing right through him.

" Wh-what do you mean? Who the heck is Inu-Inuyasha?"

" You tell me," Sango said calmly, her arms across her chest.

Miroku didn't answer her for a few minutes. But then sighed in defeat afterwards, because of the scary look that Sango was giving him.

" How'd you know?"

Sango gave him a triumphant smile and turned her look back to the road. It was almost 6 pm, the sun almost setting out in the horizon.

" I'm an office aid. I came across his files, I saw his background info in one of the private files in there."

" Inuyasha's dad is a wealthy businessman owning lots of companies here in Japan and back in America. He called in before Inuyasha went here and told the school to keep his files in a very safe place. He's a very powerful man and people make sure to abide by him. Did you go snooping in some files that even you, are not supposed to look at?" Miroku asked with a calmness in his voice.

" Umm..." Sango sweatdrop. She really wasn't suppose to touch those files. Her hands were just itching to touch it.

Miroku shook his head, " Well, what's done is done. But don't you think you should let Inuyasha tell Kagome the truth?"

" But why would he lie to her though?"

" Even I don't know the reason to that. First, he told me that he's just doing it for fun. But then I realized that his stepbrother might have something to do with it."

" He has a stepbrother?"

Miroku nodded his head, " Sesshoumaru Taikou."

Sango's mouth opened wide, " Sesshoumaru Taikou? The cute young model of the J-pop magazine?!"

" The one and only. He's currently at America right now. Handling companies that Inuyasha's supposed to be handling."

" Oh my god. I didn't know that. Damn...but wait a minute. Yash, I mean Inuyasha's handling businesses at the age of 16?"

" He's not really in charge of them. But his father is trying to teach him how and also his stepbrother. Right now, he's looking after the companies that his father has in here."

Sango exhaled, " That's way too much for a 16 year old.."

" Inuyasha's pretty used to it."

" Whatever......anyways..Miroku, hurry up. I have to go find Kagome..."

" Sango, can't you let Inuyasha tell her?"

Sango didn't bother to reply, thinking about the right decision as Miroku sped off to the beach.


" I'm full," Yash announced, drinking the last drop of his mocha drink. Kagome watched him gulped down the last few drops of his drink and looked at her own.

She finished her sandwich but her drink was still half way full. She smiled at him and turned her look back to the sea.

They were sitting at the big boulders that were perched on the side of the beach. Yash's car parked a few feet away from them. The beach wasn't too crowded. A few people were just swimming around and hanging out with their friends.

Kagome watched the waves rushing towards the horizon. The sun was about to set and Yash insisted that they stay to watch it before they go home. Kagome agreed without any arguments, actually wanting to watch it.

" Kagome..can you tell me something about that childhood friend of yours?" Yash asked.

" Like what?" Kagome tilted her head on the side which made Yash's heart jump. She looked so cute when she does that, a habit that Kagome used to do when they were kids.

" Anything....like, where is he right now?"

Kagome placed her drink down and hugged her knees in front of her, while Yash leaned back on the boulder behind him with his eyes closed. He doesn't want to see Kagome's expression as she answers that, fearing that he might break down.

He was about to tell Kagome to forget about his question when she suddenly spoke up.

" He's in America right now....I think."

" What do you mean..you think?" Yash asked, slightly opening his left eye to look at her. He couldn't see her expression because she had her back facing him. He opened his eyes and stared out in the horizon, his question still unanswered.

" He hasn't contacted me for 7 years now. I don't know why. He promised me that he's gonna write back, that he will always keep in touch, but he hasn't...." Kagome replied sadly, trying to hold back tears that were threatening to fall down again. She doesn't know why, but somehow, telling Yash about everything is calming her down. It's as if pouring her heart out to him would make her feel better.

Yash's face was full of guilt, he didn't mean to. It's just that...that stupid bet! He just couldn't let Sesshoumaru win this one. He just couldn't!

Kagome continued on, " He was very nice, funny, and he cared so much about me. At first, he really was a weakling," Kagome smiled sadly while Kagome chuckled, remembering his childhood, " but then he started protecting me."

" The day he had to leave made me so sad. I didn't want him to go....I didn't want to be torn apart from him. But then, when he told me of a promise. The promise that he will come back for me, strengthen me each and every day. I held that promise with me." Kagome couldn't help the tears. It came flowing down her cheek.

Yash sat up, sensing that Kagome was crying. Kagome wiped the tears with the palm of her hands, and kept on going.

" That promise was to be proven by this bracelet see?" Kagome turned to face Yash and she showed the bracelet to him. " Then, I gave him a necklace...but I doubt that he still remembers me. He hasn't even contacted me, and yet here I am, still waiting for him to come back. How stupid can I get?!"

Kagome couldn't help it anymore. She broke down, crying. Everything just came pouring out of her system, including her own emotions. After a few seconds, she felt Yash's strong arms around her shoulders.

She turned around to face him and saw his sincere look of sympathy, well that's what she thought. Yash felt so guilty, at what pain he caused Kagome to feel. He couldn't take it anymore, somehow, he has to tell her.

Kagome buried her face in Yash's strong body. She cried and cried, pouring her heart out to Yash, while Yash continued to comfort her with his hug, cradling her delicate body on to his arms.

After a few minutes, Kagome's cried started to subside. The two didn't notice Miroku's car arriving. He spotted them from far off, including his car that he lend Inuyasha. He parked right beside it, Sango trying to hurry him up. Sango jumped out of the car and started to walk towards the two. Miroku tried to stop her, pulling her back but Sango, with a fierce look on her face kept on walking.

Kagome felt the warmth emitting from Yash's body, and the memory of Inuyasha hugging her when she was a kid enveloped her.

" He reminds me so much of Inuyasha..." Kagome thought to herself, with her eyes closed. She started blushing and was about to pull herself away from Yash's grasp when she saw something glisten from Yash's neck.

Yash didn't seem to notice Kagome, nor the other two who were approaching them. Then, Yash felt Kagome's body stiffen under his arms and pulled Kagome away from him and looked at her face. He saw her eyes widen, so he cocked his head to the side.

" Kagome!" Sango yelled out from behind. Yash turned questioningly to Sango, who was stomping towards them with Miroku behind, with a horrified expression. Yash was about to ask them what's up when he heard Kagome mumble something.

" What?" Yash asked. Kagome now had her eyes closed, mumbling something to herself. Yash shook her shoulders, " Kagome, what's wrong?"

Yash saw Kagome open her eyes only to reveal what she held in her eyes. It was full of sadness, joy and anger at the same time which really confused Yash. He was about to ask again when his dog ears picked up something that Miroku told Sango.

" Please, Sango. Just let Inuyasha tell Kagome the truth." Yash's eyes widened. Sango knew?!

" Inuyasha...." Kagome whispered, making Yash turned his head back at Kagome. Kagome suddenly reached out in front of him, startling him a bit. Then he felt something move underneath his shirt as Kagome took out something.

Kagome opened her fist to reveal to Yash what she was holding. Yash's eyes suddenly widened...." Kagome...its not. I mean..."

"Inu-Inuyasha?" Kagome murmured to herself, and in her hand, she held out a gold necklace that has a gold plait angel wings, and on it is enscripted: Inuyasha and Kagome forever.
