Kikyo went back to her home and found out that she doesn't love Kouga. It was only a stomach, Kikyou had forgotten to eat breakfast. ' I guess it was a false alarm, THANK GOODNESS!' thought Kikyo. Nobody was home so she left again. Kikyo cruised through her neighborhood and felt bored. In front of her was Sesshomaru and someone else... Kikyo's eyes widen as she saw Kagura besides Sesshomaru. Kagura is one of the popular people and was always trying to get Sesshomaru to go out with her. Usually Kagura would bother Kikyo everyday but Kikyo would just ignore her. But if Kagura got too far... well... lets just say Kikyo would have a surprise waiting for her. Once Kikyo put dead cockroaches (eeewww!) in Kagura's locker as payback.
Kikyo had some jealousy in her heart but she ignored it. Kikyo hid somewhere so they won't find her. Then, Kikyo overheard their conversation. " Come on Sesshy, have a date with me tonight," Kagura begged. ' Damn! If this will make her leave me alone, then fine, I'll do it,' thought Sesshomaru. "Fine," said Sesshomaru. Kagura smiled and kissed his lips. At that moment, Kikyo peeked and she felt that heart heart was dying all over again. " Sesshomaru," whispered Kikyo. Kagura pulled away and walked to the direction of her house. Sesshomaru noticed Kikyo peeking and said " Come out Kikyo." Kikyo walked out in front of Sesshomaru not saying anything. " Did you see all of that?" asked Sesshomaru. Kikyo merely nodded. " Have a nice date with Kagura," Kikyo said while faking a smile. Kikyo walked away and leaving Sesshomaru filled with thoughts. ' I hope Kikyo isn't mad. I love her, not Kagura. But I had to make Kagura leave me alone,' thought Sesshomaru.
Kikyo was about to enter her home when suddenly Kouga called her name. " Kikyo!" shouted Kouga. Kikyo felt happy because Kouga was here. He always cheers her up when something goes wrong. " Hi Kouga kun! What are you doing here?" said Kikyo, Kouga ran up to her. He was trying to catch his breathe and then spilled the truth," Kikyo, I thought I understood why you couldn't love me like I love you, but I don't. I love you so much and I don't want to lose you. Will you go out with me tonight?" Kikyo was speechless. ' Kouga, you are very sweet. I guess I could go out with you, since Sesshomaru has found someone else,' thought Kikyo. "Okay. I'll go out with you. I guess there's no harm done if I go out with you," replied Kikyo. Kouga smiled and hugged Kikyo. " Oh Kikyo, sweet bellflower. I love you so much," wispered Kouga. He looked down at her at kissed her cheek. Kikyo smiled and went into her house. Midoriku greeted her daughter and told her that she was going to work. Kikyo nodded and headed upstairs. Kagome walked past her and smiled at her. It wasn't an evil smile. It was the friendly smile that she wore in her face when Kikyo and Kagome were friends. Kikyo froze and looked back at her. ' Was that the smile she used to show in the past? Maybe I'm just seeing things,' thought Kikyo.
Kikyo went inside her room and and jumped on her bed and sighed. " Sesshomaru... have you really found another? Well if she means that much to you then who am I to interfere," said Kikyo. Kikyo started to remember Inuyasha. Kikyo missed him so much but she knew deep down inside that Kagome loves him, and Kikyo still remembers how Kagome was when they were friends. They were inseperatable. They were always helping each other and comforting each other when they were young. Then people started to like Kagome and Kagome started to be a show off and popular. Kagome wanted to be popular so much that she neglected Kikyo and started to hang out with other popular kids. All of that happened at third grade.
Kikyo thought about the date with Kouga and started to wondered if she should go out with him. Kikyo called Sango for advice. " Hello? Sango speaking," said Sango. " Hey Sango, hows it going?" asked Kikyo. " Everything is great but Miroku has to control his hands or else he was going to have three more bumps on his head. Kikyo laughed and responded, " So he's at your house?" Sango said yes. " Anyway.. Sango, I need your advice. Kouga kun asked me to go out with him tonight. I agreed. Should I really go?" asked Kikyo. " Well, what about Sesshomaru. You love him, Kikyo. Miroku and I know it and do not deny it. Miroku and I known you since grade 3, it's hard to keep things from us," replied Sango.
Kikyo sighed and responded," I guess you're right. But Sesshomaru has found another. I even saw him and Kagura kiss." " WHAATTTT!" yelled Sango. Kikyo got frightened of the sudden outburst and dropped the phone. " He's going out with KAGURA! Of all the girls that asked him out, he had to pick Kagura? Anyway... Kikyo go out with Kouga. He does love you and he has been there for you when you felt lonely and neglected when Inuyasha barely spends time with you," said Sango. " I guess you're right. I mean something good might happen. Thanks Sango," replied Kikyo before she hung up. ' Maybe it won't be so bad,' thought Kikyo.
A/N: I hope this will make up for the last chapter being short. Please review or leave a reasonable flame. Thank You! I think I fixed some errors in this chapter. Oh and for Inu/kag lovers, i decided to be nice and stopped bashing Kagome. There will be some fluff between the two in the middle end and so on chapters.
