Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any of the characters in this story…nor do I own this story idea.


Hi. Today is a very special day. Today is my birthday…yay! April 29, 2005. Anyway, if I can get over 100 reviews in all, it would make me really happy.
Slowly I began to regain my consciousness and I woke up. I looked around and realized I was in the biggest room in the Higurashi Hotel. The Presidential Suite. "What am I doing in here?" I asked myself. Then suddenly the chair in front of me spun around. Inuyasha was sitting in it. I stared at him with wide eyes. I started to panic because I was all alone with him in the room.

Inuyasha gave me a sideways glance. "You okay?" he asked. I nodded my head. Inuyasha got up out of his seat and walked towards me. He sat down on the bed next to me and looked at me straight in the eyes. "So what's your name?" he asked.

"Ka-" I began but instantly cut myself off. 'Stupid, I thought to myself. You almost said your real name!' I saw Inuyasha's eyes grow wide.

"What did you say your name was?"

"Keiichiro," I answered him quickly.

"Oh," he said and backed away from me.

Inuyasha stood up and walked towards the window, looking outside. He knew the new recruit was a boy but somewhere inside him, he wished Keiichiro would say his name was Kagome. He let out a sigh. "There's a meeting tomorrow. Be there okay?"

I looked at Inuyasha with his back facing me. It had only been three years but I felt as though I couldn't read what was going on in his mind anymore. I let out a sigh myself. "Inuyasha, where do we meet later tomorrow?"

The call of his real name made Inuyasha suddenly look up. He ran over to where Keiichiro was sitting and grabbed him by his shoulders. "How do you know my real Japanese name? No one knows me by that. Everyone calls me Kyo."

Oh no, I thought. I had completely forgotten that Inuyasha had changed his name to Kyo but I thought fast. "I didn't say Inuyasha. I said Gee Wan. Like Gee, wanna go out later tomorrow?'" I felt Inuyasha's grip on me loosen. He had bought the story. When he was looking, I let out a sigh of relief.

'I'm losing it,' thought Inuyasha. "We'll meet in the main dining room tomorrow," Inuyasha told Keiichiro. He nodded his head and left. Inuyasha walked out to the balcony and looked up at the sky. "I love you Kagome, that's why it hurts so much that you're not here." But the real Kagome had left before she could have heard those words.

Meanwhile back in the hotel lobby…

After Miroku and the others gave the new recruits instructions and about the meeting, they all went back to their rooms. "You think there's something wrong with Kyo?" asked Hakkaku.

"Yeah," said Ginta. "Did you see the way he held the new guy?" They began to shudder.

"No, it's nothing," answered Miroku.

"You think maybe Kyo is gay?" asked Rei.

"You're the one who looks gay," said Ginta, jokingly.

"Shut up!" yelled Rei as he punched Ginta lightly.

The others began to laugh. Then Hojo said, "Could be though. I never saw him 'be' with a girl before."

Miroku lets out a sigh. "Okay, I'll tell you guys the real deal. But don't let this get back to Kyo okay?" They all nodded and leaned forward to hear the story.

"It was like four years ago when Kyo met this girl named Kagome Higurashi…."

"She a babe?" asked Ginta, interrupting.

Miroku gave him a look. "Yes, Ginta, she's a babe."

"Oh, okay," said Ginta. "Continue."

"Anyways, Kyo knew her before he met me. It turns out that she was the first person who ever really cared about him and Kyo fell in love with her. But you know how he is. He could never tell anyone exactly what's on his mind or how he feels. Instead of saying he wants Kagome to be his girlfriend, he said he wants her to be his little sister—"

"That's stupid!" yelled Ginta, interrupting Miroku. "Why he say that for? She's a babe!"

"Sh..!" yelled Hakkaku, Rei, and Hojo at Ginta.

Miroku continued. "Well, Kyo ended up having this blood ceremony with her. They scarred each other's back with their initial. It looks like a blood tie but later on I found out it was his symbol of promised love-"

"Ouch...that must have hurt," said Ginta, as he hugged himself. Hakkaku smacked him on the head for interrupting again.

"I think they knew each other for a year before they met me. At first I thought Kagome was cute, but then by the way Kyo acts, I can tell she was off limits. See, Kagome had this heart condition where air would suddenly be closed off and she couldn't breathe. The only way to get air in was by this respirator—"

"The one Kyo always carry?" asked Ginta.

"Yes Ginta," said Miroku, rolling his eyes. "Anyways, it was either that or mouth to mouth. Once when Kyo went collecting shells for Kagome, I was walking along the shores with her. One of her attacks came on. I freaked out of course, but I knew what to do. I laid her down and I was about to give her CPR but then Kyo ran at the speed of light and knocked me into the ocean and he gave her CPR." The others started laughing.

"Dang, isn't he a Romeo?" said Ginta, laughing.

Miroku smiled. "It's because he loves Kagome and didn't want any other guy touching her. I mean, during school, if any guy talks about wanting to date her, Kyo made sure he didn't. Oh yeah, Kyo hasn't always been Kyo. His real name is Inuyasha. The 'K' scar on his back stands for Kagome, not Kyo." The others opened their mouths in shock. They never knew Inuyasha had been this much in love before.

"How romantic," whispered Ginta.

"Shut up," said Rei. "Quit interrupting!"

"Okay, okay," said Ginta, blocking himself from Hakkaku's hand.

Miroku began talking. "If there are no more interruptions, then I'll continue." He paused for a second and then continued. "The day before Kyo and I made it to Korea, he and Kagome were supposed to get married. Kyo didn't like his dad and there was this feud in their family on who gets the grandpa's inheritance. Kyo got it, of course, and he took it all and left Japan. He took me and he was planning on taking Kagome too. When he went to her house though, his uncle's men were guarding the place and he couldn't take her. He ended up leaving Japan without saying goodbye to Kagome." All of them remained silent.

Then Hojo spoke. "Last year he sent me out to get some news on Kagome Higurashi. She had died drowning."

Miroku nodded. "Yeah but Kyo and I think she committed suicide. He thinks it's because Kagome can't handle living with her step dad, who always abuse her. If you ask me, I think Kagome committed suicide because Kyo left her without any reason. I think he thinks that too but he won't say it. I think he blames himself for her death and since then he hasn't been the same. He used to be nicer and not this touchy. Also that's why he's never been with another girl. I mean, we see him flirt with other girls but none of us actually see him 'be' with another girl right?"

The others nodded in agreement. Miroku continued. "About this new boy today, I think Kyo is losing it. He probably thinks when he sees the boy he is seeing—" Miroku stopped talking as he looked up. He finished his sentence with a "—See you later!" and he ran off.


Author's Note: well, what do you think about this chapter? Why do you think Miroku just ran off like that? Anyway review.
