Chapter 3

Don't own Inuyasha

Almost one month later as he walked to school that morning Inuyasha finally realized what he had to do. It was the school that had kept him from telling his feelings for Ka so he had to tell the school AND Kagome about his feelings for her.

As he made up his mind he thought about her and asked himself the question he must've asked himself at least a million times before. How could he do something so cruel to someone so sweet? It just wasn't right and now it was time to make it right. He just couldn't wait until lunchtime. No one in his school ate off campus lunches because they lived in a very sleazy neighborhood. So his plan would work.

He knew his message would reach way over half the school. He almost skipped to school until he thought of what the gang he was in would do about this. Ka had known he'd been in this gang since he was thirteen. He's been in it for four years now. Who cares? She's my girl. She's always been my girl she just hasn't known it and now I've lost her but I'm going to get her back today.

Kagome had been going through hell all day. It was just like every other day for the past month. Everyone looked at her. It was all about her. Girls gave her sympathetic looks and whispered and guys gave her serves-you-right looks and whispered. No matter how you put it they were all whispering about her. When she suddenly didn't think she could take it anymore the lunch bell rang. She was actually happy that it was lunchtime; at least it gave her a reason to run out of the room. Which she did.

She sat where she used to sit when she and Inu had been friends. Inu wasn't there. Yesterday Kagome had decided to be friends with him again because she just couldn't let him go. So she sat and waited. It had been one month since the whole incident happened and still people whispered about her. Most of the time they whispered about how much weight she had lost and joked that their boyfriends should get them depressed too. Ka had not been eating at all. Nothing; not a bite. She had all but given up.

She may only be sixteen but she already knew what it was like to fall in love and have your heart broken. She hoped that none of her future children would ever have to go through this. That brought tears to her eyes. She used to tell Inu that their children would have been so beautiful. He always used to make a joke about it or just smile and stay quiet. Now she knew why.

Her thoughts were interrupted when she heard cries of "Look over there" and "I think he wants to say something." When she looked up she saw Inu standing on a table. She gasped, running over and getting right in the front of everyone.

Inuyasha looked down and saw Ka. He took a deep breath and began. "A little over three weeks ago I hurt someone who was very dear to me. She has a gorgeous smile that makes me smile even when no one else can. She has gorgeous eyes that make me want to dance. And she also has beautiful red lips that I've wanted to kiss for some time now. Today I plan to do all those things. I also plan for all of you to know what I have been trying to hide for a while now." At this he raised his voice a bit. "Kagome, I love you so much. Will you dance with me?"

Kagome was shocked beyond belief. She nodded yes and he jumped off the table and wrestled out of the crowd with her. Once they were out of the crowd Inu signaled to Sango and Miroku to turn on the music.

Everyone cheered.

Inu had heard the rumors but he hadn't believed them until he took Ka in his arms. As they started to dance he said, "So I guess they're true then, aren't they?" He said, thinking about how skinny she was.

Ka looked at him surprised, she felt oddly drained of energy. She also felt dizzy. "What are true?" She asked slowly.

Warning bells went off in Inu's head. Something wasn't right. She was too damn thin. "Did I do this to you, Ka?" He asked emphasizing his meaning by circling her whole waist with just his two hands. "Oh God, Kagome. What did you do to yourself?" He asked with pain and anguish in his voice.

Kagome felt too dizzy. Something was not right. She was supposed to feel happy. "Inu, stop dancing."

Inuyasha did as he was told. Something was wrong. She was not steady on her feet and she was not even looking at him. She was looking at the ground and breathing heavily. "Kagome, what's wrong?" He asked, worry evident in his voice.

Kagome looked up at the slightly swimming Inuyasha. "Inu." She whispered before she was no longer able to stay on her feet. Kagome fell but Inuyasha caught her before her head could touch the ground.

"Kagome, Kagome." Inuyasha's voice was filled with pain. "Someone call the hospital!"

"Inu." Kagome whispered. "Inu." She said again to get his attention. Once she had it she told him what she had wanted to tell him for so long. "Inu, I love you and I'm so glad you're mine." She whispered but it proved to be too much of an effort and she passed out.

"Oh my God! Kagome!" Inu screamed. "Get an ambulance. Someone please help me!"
