A/N: Hey everyone. Dude. Last night was so cool. You see, I downloaded this one episode of Inuyasha (the one… about The Nightmare Forest of Sorrows with the moth guy… yeah) and it hadn't come out to the US yet. So last night I was watching it and I was all like, I SAW THIS BEFORE! I felt so cool. I also had to compare the Japanese dialogue with the English dialogue. They were almost the same.

One thing that got me mad was that they only played the dialogue of the beginning, "Grip!", by Every Little Thing. I don't like many songs by ELT, but that's one I really do like. I was all like "OMG" because just previously in the day I was complaining to my mom that Adult Swim always, always played the theme song to every show EXCEPT INUYASHA! Even in Case Closed, they play a little snippet. Well, they only played the dialogue! I was happy and sad because I really like that song and I really wanted to hear it. Oh well…

Music:

Songs from BoA's cd, 'My Name'

Yoshiki – I'll be Your Love

Namie Amuro – Want Me Want Me

Ayumi Hamasaki – Real me

Bonnie Pink – Private Laughter

Do As Infinity – Buranko (GONNA BE ON MY CD! 3 3)

Hanako Horigome - Hee hee. Yay! More people to support me! I'm glad you think the fic is good. Yeah, and Sango (the real girl I based her off of) doesn't do that anymore. And I exagerated in the story a little bit... yeeeeaaaahhh... Well I hope your two friends get better! Eh, I'm too shy to show him! Ahh! Everyone thinks they're good, but since they come straight from the heart, it's a little embarrassing to even have my friends read them!

lunarcat12 - YAY! It makes me feel so special when people tell me they love the story! (giggles) Yeep, Inu is a real turd.

oOnat-chanOo - SUKEY SHOULD DIE! Honestly, you don't know how many times I've said that to myself... A couple times I was so mad I wrote it all over this one paper... that I had to turn in... So then it had sharpie all over it. Hee hee..

DolphinBrat09 - YAY! I was excited to put the real reason in there, too. Aww, that sucks about not starting the fic you were thinking of. I hope everything turns out okay for ya!

Chapter 22

Awkwardness

222222

(A/N: like I said in the last chapter, this chapter is gonna be pretty short, just a heads up!)

I was a little gloomy, thinking about the other day. Those thoughts about me being second best really tore down my self esteem. I wanted to talk to Inuyasha about it, I really did, but something was stopping me.

Maybe if I talked to him, he'd get mad at me. Either for being jealous of Sukey, or maybe mad at me for being so stupid. I really didn't like when he was mad at me, it made my whole world go wrong.

On the other hand, something was telling me I had to tell him or else I would hang onto this thought, always wondering why I wasn't good enough. And I knew that if I never found out, I would always have a little hole in my heart, a little sad creature telling me I wasn't good enough for anyone in my head, something nagging me that I wasn't worth wasting time over.

So I decided to talk to him one on one in study hall.

I sat in the hall, quietly waiting silently as Inuyasha got his binder for "studying". I fidgeted with the four colored safety pins on my light blue jeans. I looked at the shiny colors: red, purple, blue, and green. (a/n: I love them. I am wearing them right now!)

Inuyasha came out and sat down next to me. "What's wrong?" he asked.

This was my opportunity. I looked up at him, took a deep breath, and said what was so hard to say: "How would you compare me to Sukey, Inuyasha?"

He was speechless, I think. His face was a quick little expression of shock at first, and then I could tell he was filing through his thoughts to find the right words, and to find the truth. But I wasn't sure if he was going to tell the truth. He might lie just to comfort me.

"I don't know…" he said to himself at first. "Um… uh… You're great, Kagome. And so is Sukey… and I can't really compare you all too well…"

I was surprised he was being completely honest with me. I knew that if he was going to lie, he'd just come out and say "You're more important to me, Kagome," or maybe he would have just come out and say "I love Sukey more than you, Kagome!" He wouldn't have hesitated to say that, because he knew I would be happy hearing the truth like that. But he was speaking straight from his mind.

I looked down at my pins again, speechless just as he was before. I didn't know if I should be happy that he can't choose between us or not. It was just another competition now.

The next thing I know, Inuyasha slips his hand around my waist and pulls me to him, capturing me in a passionate kiss. I put my arms around his neck as he rubbed my back. I responded to the kiss. It seemed to last for hours, and I wished I could just stay like this forever, feeling wanted and feeling loved my someone else.

We broke away and I smiled while looking down. He took my hand and helped me up. He smiled at me. And I returned it.

Later that night, I was doing some more thinking. It was really hard doing this with Inuyasha. I couldn't tell anyone. I couldn't tell my mom, I couldn't tell Sango, or Kikyo, or Mika, or… anyone! So many people I knew were on friendly terms with Sukey, and they might slip.

It was so awkward for me.

222222

Yeah, that's it. Umm… I told you it was going to be short. Nothing really to say. Except for I love Utada Hikaru.

Chapter Previews!

"Kagome, I want you to come with me," Sesshoumaru said to me, taking my hand.

"Kagome, please don't tell me this is what I think it is…" he sounded so shocked.

MWAHAHAHAAA!
