Chapter 2- Don't believe everything you see

The next day was a beautiful summer day. Kagome woke up to the smell of fried fish and noodles. "Good morning!" Kagome said looking around, smiling at everyone.

"Good morning Kagome!" said Sango while stirring the pot of noodles. Kagome looked around to see there was one less person here.

"Where's InuYasha?" she asked

"Well he went to the stream and said he'll be back later." Miroku answered.

"Oh. So… what's everyone doing today?" Kagome asked.

"We're going to the hot springs!" Shippo said.

"Oh," Kagome said, "I thought you might go and find or something?"

"Not with half-breed over there," said Miroku, "he doesn't want to do any work without his powers."

"Oh, yea I forgot," she muttered sadly, "I'll go down to the stream and give him his breakfast." So Kagome carefully wrapped his breakfast and went to the stream.

InuYasha was sitting on a boulder looking at the stream. He looked like something was bothering him. And from the bags under his eyes, looked like he didn't sleep well either. "InuYasha?" Kagome said.

"Huh?" InuYasha said snapping out of his daze.

"I brought you breakfast."

"Thanks."

"Hope you like it." InuYasha finished that meal in one gulp. He must have been really hungry. But I wonder what's troubling him? Kagome thought. "What's wrong?" Kagome asked.

"Why ya wanna know?" InuYasha said after slurping his noodles.

"You just looked puzzled."

"I do?"

"Yea."

"Well I was wondering… Are you really going home to study?"

"Yea… What about it?"

"Well are your grades that low that you need a month to study for? And didn't you tell me that you only have two days of school left?" Kagome was shocked and impressed. Shocked because she forgot she told him, and impressed that he listened. "Well…" she stuttered. "Well what? You wanna tell me something?" he said looking at her suspiciously.

"Umm… no… why? You don't you believe me?"

"Umm… no…"

Even though she was caught in the little act, she still didn't cave in. "Sit boy!" she yelled. Suddenly, InuYasha's necklace once again pulled me down, hard, to the ground. "Oww! What was that for?" he asked. "For still being a jerk!" and with that she stomped away, but she turned around and looked at him. "Did you think about that all night, InuYasha?"

"Uh-huh" he said nodding his head 'yes'.

"Oh.. well are you coming? We're all going to the hot springs!" Kagome said while putting a smile on her face. InuYasha looked up and for some reason, he still wanted to keep an eye on her.


Everyone was walking down the road heading for a near by hot springs. Once they got they got there they split up, girls went one way, boys went the other. Kagome and Sango changed and headed for the spring. Then they both sighed in relief since the spring felt so good. "Kagome…" Sango called.

" Then they both sighed in relief since the spring felt so good. "Kagome…" Sango called.

"Yea…" Kagome answered.

"Are you really going back home to study?"

"Umm… I can trust you right?"

"With my life!"

"No, I'm not going to study."

"Then what?"

"My Grandfather didn't want InuYasha to know, but I'm leaving the country."

"Where are you going?"

"To America, It's across the Pacific Ocean."

"Sounds Far."

"It is."

"I can see why InuYasha is really jumpy cause you didn't tell him."

"Please don't tell!"

"Of coarse, I promise."


"I'm telling you! She is up to something and I'm gonna find out, Miroku!" exclaimed InuYasha he jumped up, he was getting pumped up just thinking about catching Kagome in her little act. "Calm down InuYasha! What happens if you catch her and she wasn't lying?" said Miroku, even though he was a little curious his self. "Then I'll… I'll…"

"You'll do what?" Shippo asked.

"Aww… I don't know?" InuYasha said while falling back in the spring. He was becoming even more frustrated than he already was. "She just makes me mad when she keeps secrets from me!" he said.

"It just shows how much you truly loves her," Miroku said (talking like he he was some type of Dr. Phil.)

"Really?"

"Yea… you should go and tell her how you feel before she leaves."

"Alright… I'll try."


"Aww… not now!" muttered InuYasha when he looked at the moon. He started to transform into human form. His slivery white hair slowly turned jet black, his long claws turned into human nails, his cute dog ears turned into human ears to the side of his head. "He's back…" Shippo sang. "Shut-up" InuYasha said. He never liked it when he turned human, no powers, no Tetsnsaiga to use, basically… boring. "Well, I think I better get packing." Kagome announced. Miroku nudged InuYasha as if to say what are you waiting for?

InuYasha and Kagome headed off in the opposite direction from the rest of them. While walking back down the dusty road in the darkness, a strong wind blew, and InuYasha's hair blew all over his face, making him really frustrated. Seeing this Kagome stopped and pulled out a rubber band. "What's that for?" InuYasha asked.

"Its for your hair, it's going to be a little windy so this is something to keep your hair up." She explained while reaching up to pull InuYasha's hair up to pull it in a pony tail. InuYasha was blushing a little, she was so close, her chest on his chest and her arms wrapped around his neck. She smells so good, he thought, say something she's looking at you now. "Is there something wrong?" Kagome asked obviously Knowing he was blushing.

"Kagome…" he started, "I love you." Brilliant. Genius, just brilliant.

"I'm sorry…" InuYasha said

"InuYasha there is no need…" Kagome said

"Yea there is… I shouldn't of…" Kagome put her finger on is lips and said, "I love you, too. I always have."

"I always thought you hated me. You always said 'Sit boy' so much."

"Just because I said 'sit boy'…" InuYasha's necklace pulled him down hard to the ground. He looked up to see Kagome with her hand over her mouth saying "I'm so sorry, InuYasha! It slipped!"

"Yea sure… whatever." She helped him get up and they looked into each other's eyes. Then suddenly Kikyo walks by (now from her perspective she sees Kagome and the back of InuYasha's head with his hair pulled up, not knowing that it's InuYasha.) And she goes and hides behinds a tree. All of the sudden, InuYasha couldn't take it anymore. He grabbed Kagome by the waist and kissed her. Kagome gave in, He finally did it, I should at least tell him, but I promised Gramps, so I'll tell him when I get back, Kagome thought. On the other hand, Well, well, well… the young one has given her heart to someone else. InuYasha will be so sad.
