Before Your Love

Chapter 3: The Return of Kikyou

Lunch was over, neither of them spoke to the other and neither of them knew why, but nonetheless, they enjoyed each other's presence.

'She's been unusually quiet. What's her problem?" Sesshoumaru thought, 'I think I have an idea what it is, though.'

"Kagome," he said her name in such a way that made her heart skip a heaertbeat.

"Yes," Kagome answered, same time searching for a memory that Sesshoumaru started a conversation but there was none.

"You know you can talk to me with anything, right?" Sesshoumaru questioned. The concern on his voice made her turn and look at him, checking if that was him who talked.

'How could I tell you, if you're my problem?' Kagome thought.

"Yeah, I know but I don't have any problems to talk about, Sess," Kagome said smiled thoughtfully but Sess didn't miss the hint of sadness in her voice.

"You tell yourself that, Kagome," Sesshoumaru said emotionless voice, "but it is true?"

Kagome stopped walking and stared at the floor. When Sesshoumaru stopped, too and embraced her, everything stopped and there were just the two of them.

"Everything's going to be okay," he said. Thinking of what he'd just said, he asked himself, 'Is it?'

"I know," she said quietly.

AFTER SCHOOL...

Sango made her way towards Kagome's locker with Miroku's arm around her shoulder. On their way, everybody who saw them frozed and stared at ehm probably thinking how Miroku got a girlfriend. Probably because of his lecherous ways.

Kagome saw them and said, "Spill."

Sango blushed and said shyly, "We're going out."

"Awww... You guys look so kawaii together!" Kagome squealed, "I'm so happy for you guys!"

Sango felt forlorn for her best friend and said in a sad tone, "You'll find someone special, too Kagome."

"I'll be okay, you guys just enjoy," Kagome said and embraced them, her head between theirs and the most shocking thing was that, for once Miroku's hand didn't travel any lower than normal.

THE NEXT DAY...

"Kagome!" Sango squealed, "did you hear?"

"Hear what?" Kagome asked curiously.

"Kikyou's back," Sango replied happily.

Kagome's thought turned to Kiyou, her modest friend. Kikyou was back from America. Kikyou, who was so quiet, so smart, so much like her mirror but the complete opposite in the inside. The most thing that brought sadness to her was that Kikyou was Sesshy's girlfriend. Has she changed?

Kagome's question was answered when a girl wearing a thick black eye liner, and thick black lipstick, a tank top that showed her bellybutton, a short black skirt that goes down and stopped at her mid thighs walked down the hall, passed them, like the girl didn't see them, or more like ignored them.

'Was that, Kikyou?' They both thought, 'was that the same Kikyou that we know, and love? Obviously not. She has changed...a lot.'

"I thought that she'll remain our best friend, even if she was away for that long. But now, I just proved myself wrong," Kagome sighed.

"We lost her," Sango said quietly and sadly.

IN THE HALLWAY...

Sesshoumaru stood, leaning against the wall, an emotionless mask plastered on his face. He's heard that his girlfriend was back, and now he didn't know what to do anymore. Should he do something about it? Or just play the role of being her boyfriend again, even though he's falling for someone else?

Sesshoumaru was shocked to see his girlfriend but remained void of emotions.

'Could this be my modest girlfriend?' He thought, 'Obviously not.'

"Hey, baby," Kikyou said,and gave him a peck on the lips, "did you miss me?"

'Kikyou avoid physical contacts before,' Sesshoumaru thought, 'what happened to his innocense, the most thing that I love about her? It was long gone.'

When Kagome saw the exchange, she hurried Sango to their first class, not waiting for his reply, because she knew that he would say yes, so no point for waiting, right? Nothing can surpass what she was feeling, even death itself couldn't surpass this. She felt her heart breaking to many pieces. She just couldn't watch it anymore that's why she left.

'No,' Sesshoumaru thought, 'I didn't miss her...I didn't.'

"No," he said calmly, "I didn't miss you. You're not the Kikyou I fell in love with before. I'm sorry. If you may excuse me, I have to talk to someone. He walked away.

He stopped and said in a calm voice, "we're over if you are wondering," and he walked away.

'How dare he,' Kikyou thought, 'I will not let him get away with this!'
