P.S. This fic is nearly finished! I'm so happy! At last my first fic will be finished! And I'm sorry if I hadn't updated this fic for a very long time. I have a kind of writer's block here…

Chapter 8
FLASHBACK
"No, this can't be. I just saw him two times. I can't possibly like him." Kikyo said to herself trying to dismiss Inuyasha's face in her mind. 'He's my savior'
She walked home still thinking about Inuyasha.

Days passed unusually slowly for Inuyasha. He was seeing Kikyo more often than needed and they are becoming closer and closer each day. Now, Inuyasha is slowly recovering from his loneliness because of his best friend's absence. But he still cannot change the fact that he really misses Kagome.
"I hear Kagome's coming here for winter vacation." Sesshoumaru said meaningfully as he eyed his brother Inuyasha.
"Really! She hasn't written to me for a long time. And how come you know about that? Do you have any way of contacting Kagome?" Inuyasha inquired suddenly. "That stupid idiot! She did not even told me about her plans of coming here!"
"That's still not sure but her mother said that she'll find time." His big brother said turning around to finish cooking lunch. "Change the subject. You said Kikyo's coming here right? Who is she anyway? I haven't seen her."
"Well…in some weird way, she looks like Kagome. They have the same age, looks, only Kikyo is more refined than her." Inuyasha answered thoughtfully and then giving off a small smile as he remembered how Kagome acts as if she wasn't a girl.
Sesshoumaru looked on what he is cooking but not quite seeing it really. He thought for a moment…Kikyo…He felt something about this girl. Just hearing her very name… It's just that there is something different about her. But what is it? What is this feeling that stirred inside him?
Uneasiness?…No…
Happiness?…Certainly not…
Apprehensiveness?…Yeah maybe…
Yeah…Maybe he really is apprehensive to meet this friend of Inuyasha's…
He continued on his cooking in the kitchen when the bell rang.
"I'll get it!" shouted Inuyasha.
He invited Kikyo to their house so that they can study together. Kikyo's having a hard time adapting to their school. She's just new to their advanced learning. It was an integrated school after all.
Inuyasha invited her inside the house to the dining room. "You could have come to our house instead." Kiyo muttered to Inuyasha as she took a seat.
"Nah…I like studying in my own house. Anyway this is better; I have all my books here. And this is what Kagome and I usually do."
Kikyo suddenly fell silent. She just got her math book out of her bag saying nothing.
'How foolish of me. This Kagome…she's his bestfriend. I can never replace her. I'm just a mere friend…classmate. Why do I like him anyway!' Kikyo said to herself.
Because he's fun to be with…comfortable. Sometimes a bit stubborn…but still, fun to be with. A voice in her mind said.
Sesshoumaru came to prepare the table. "Could you please help me, Inuyasha? I only got two hands you know?" he said sarcastically.
He laid the dish on the table and looked at his brother's guest. "Hi! Your name's Kikyo, right? Yes, you do look a lot like Kagome." He said scrutinizing the girl's face.
"Uhhh…Yeah." She replied with a blush. 'And he looks a lot like Inuyasha. He's face is so adorable…'
After a while they started eating. Kikyo seemed to have a hard time gulping her food up. Not just because she is the only girl here and she was uncomfortable…but also because Inuyasha and his brother- Sesshoumaru- are both attractive. Not that she's a flirt, but they really are attractive to any girls' eyes.
When they finished, Kikyo looked at Sesshoumaru and said her thanks. And this was replied with a warm gaze.
