Chapter Three ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kagome started to stir. She was still a little groggy, but she had to get up sometime, right? She looked at her surroundings and noticed that she was on in a bed with black sheets covering it and a maroon colored comforter. 'Where am I?' she thought, then she saw him again. "Inu-Inuyasha? Is it really you?"

"The last time I checked." He replied. "Are you ok, Kagome?"

"You remember me?"

He just smiled at her. "I could never forget you. Now, you didn't answer my question. Are you ok?"

"Yea, I'm ok. I just can't believe it's you. I mean I haven't seen you in so long."

"It's been three years."

"Three long years." She corrected "So how have you been doing? I mean the last time I saw you, you were engaged to marry Kikyo. I'm guessing you guys are married now, right? Are you happy with her?"

"No, we never got married." He said lowering his head down.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know."

"It's ok, I was better off with out her."

"Well, if you don't mind me asking, what happened with you guys?"

Inuyasha sighed and said "Two days ago, I was about to pop the big question. That was until she told me that someone else had already proposed to her."

"She cheated on you?"

"Yea." He said in a depressed voice.

'That low life bitch!' she thought "I'm very sorry that happened to you."

"Its ok. I mean everything else in my life has been going pretty good. By the way, how have you been doing?" he asked

"You already know where I am working."

"Do you like your job?"

"No"

"So why are you working there, anyway?"

She lowered her head down. "Its only temporary, just until I have enough money for college."

"Didn't you already have it saved up? The last time I saw you was in high school and you seemed to be doing great, what happened?"

"It's a long story."

"I'll listen." He said as he sat down on the chair by the doorway.

"You always did listen to what I had to say. I missed that." She paused for a moment. ". . .and you."

"I missed you too." He said with a smile.

She went over to him and hugged him. He was a little surprised, but then he put his arms around her and returned the embrace. Kagome started to cry.

"What's wrong?"

"Last night, I was so scared that that man was going to rape me. Believe it or not. . . I'm still a virgin." She said in a quiet voice.

Inuyasha is left speechless. 'With the job she has, I would've thought that. . .'

"You don't understand how grateful I am. . .to know that someone cares." She said as she buried her face into his chest.

He started to rub her back "Kagome, you deserve so much better than this. How did you end up 'there' anyway?"

She sniffled (A/N: Funny word.) and then sat back down on the bed. "After I graduated, I had everything planned out and things seemed to be going good. Until mother got breast cancer." Her eyes started to tear up again. "She died a month later. And I spent most of my money on her funeral." She sighed "Grandpa was put in a nursing home, Sota was put into foster home, and I was stuck with nowhere to go for a while." She then continued. "But it wasn't all bad, Sango took me in and now I am living with her. I also needed money and Koga offered me a job to work at Fantasy Island and I refused at first, but then he offered to pay me a great amount so then I accepted."

"Didn't you think about being a volunteer nurse?"

"Yes, I thought about it, but I decided not to do it."

"Why? You used to tell me that you wanted to be a doctor and do stuff like that and help people. So, why didn't you do it?"

"I was afraid that they would find some of the traces of weed in my urine."

"I didn't know you smoked pot."

"It was only once! I did it five months ago!"

"Then shouldn't it be out of your system by now?"

"It takes six months for it to get out. I had no choice ok. I've made bad decisions in my life and that was one of them." Her eyes started to tear up again.

Inuyasha went over to the bed and pulled her into a tight embrace and tried to calm her down "Kagome, shh. . .c'mon."

"Inuyasha, I don't' know what happened. I don't know how everything just went so wrong. I mean I fucked up, I fucked up real bad."

"Hey at least you're not a prostitute." He said trying to make things better.

"What I do is pretty much the same. People pay money to look at my body."

"But you aren't selling yourself for sex. You took the better route and became a stripper instead of a prostitute. That to me, is a big difference in the two and you made the better decision."

She sighed. "Inuyasha, I know you're trying to make me feel better and it used to work, but I don't think it will this time."

"I'll admit that I can't take all your pain away, but I don't like seeing you like this. You were always the girl who made me happy or cheered me up when I was down. Now, it's my turn." He lifted her chin up so she could look at him. "I want you to go out to dinner with me at Shimmy's."

"I-I don't know. It depends what time you want me there."

"Is six ok?"

"Six sounds great."

"Then, sex it is! I-I mean six, six it is." His blush was starting to show up.

"Inuyasha?"

"Yea?"

"Could I borrow a some of your clothes." She said referring to having only her bikini on.

"Oh, uhh yea, sure." He went and got her a t-shirt that was very big on her and a pair of boxers.

"Thanks." She said as he handed her the clothes.

"Well, I can't let you go out with what you're wearing, now."

"Yea, well, I'll just go change and-"

Miroku came into the room.

"So, I guess you took my advice and finally got your mind off Kikyo." Said Miroku. He turned to face Kagome and said "I left a fifty on the table, so Inuyasha, you don't have to pay. Oh and could you stay here a little longer? I was wondering how good you are at giving hand jobs."

"That's enough, Miroku!!"

"Fine, she's all yours! Don't have to be so greedy!"

"She aint a prostitute! She's an old friend of mine!"

"Then what was she doing at Fantasy Island? Oh yea, that reminds me, I want to thank you for taking the car and leaving me there with no way to get home!"

"First of all, she just works there as a stripper, not a prostitute. Second of all, I'm sorry for leaving you there, I forgot."

"Don't worry, I'll be out in a minute. I should be going home now, anyway." Kagome said as she put on the clothes.

"So what exactly happened between you guys last night?" asked Miroku.

"Shut-up, nothing happened!" yelled Inuyasha.

"Well, I'll see you later. . .oh! I almost forgot-" she started to write down her phone number and gave it to him. "See you tonight!" she said as she headed out the door.

Inuyasha was left with a smile on his face.

"Ok, explain." Said Miroku.

"Explain what?"

"How do you know her?"

"We were high school friends, that's all."

"That doesn't seem to be all."

"Its not what you think it is, Miroku. We're just friends."

"Sure you are." He said sarcastically. "So, she gave you her number. . . . .can I have it?"

"No."

"W-why not?" he asked in a pleading tone.

(A/N: So how was it? I know that I had Kagome blurt out everything about her past, but she and Inuyasha were best friends in high school she felt it was ok to tell him. Their relationship will be growing a lot in future chapters. And I think you could sort of tell, with the little sparks in this chapter. Anyway, I hoped you like it and now. . .Review! ^_^)
