*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kagome's POV
Once again, my alarm clock rang. I groaned as I reached over and smacked it with my palm. The song, My Will, was getting old; I better change it, I thought, as I changed into my uniform. I looked out the window before I left my room, it still hadn't snowed yet, but the skies were cloudy. I closed the curtain and headed downstairs.
I thought about Inuyasha while I walked down. It had been two weeks that I've known him. I blushed; somehow, my feelings had grown during the time period. I measured my feelings. We had gotten closer and closer day by day, but I had to admit that he was a mysterious kind of guy; even I knew little details about him. Where were my feelings now? It wasn't a mere school girl crush, the attraction I felt were farther, much farther. Then it hit me, like a ton of bricks, it was….. love. But that was impossible, I was only 16. But love had no limits. I quickly calmed down, the blush slowly disappearing. My mom would surely question what was wrong with me. I greeted my family and ate my breakfast and headed towards the train station.
Inuyasha's POV
My ears twitched as I heard coming footsteps heading towards my room. (A/N AWWWWE!!! HIS EARS ARE SOO KAWAII ^^!!) "I'm already up mom!" I shouted. The footsteps stopped in front of my door and she told me to come and eat after I was dressed. I put on my uniform and headed downstairs and took a seat in front of my mom. Today was a rare occurrence, she was actually here. Usually, she was already gone by the time I woke up. I ate my usual morning meal, toast and some fruit, downed by orange juice. There was silence between us, but it was a comfortable one. I took this time to let my mind wander before school started. Strange, it went directly to Kagome. I definitely knew that I considered her more than a friend, perhaps a girlfriend, but I wasn't sure. She was different than any other girl that I have met. She accepted me for who I am and treated me well. I was also beginning to think that she liked me too, more than just a friend, but like always, I wasn't sure. Standing up, I took my glass to the sink, pecked my mom on the cheek and headed towards the station.
Normal POV
The two friends met on the train, taking seats near each other. They exchanged hellos and how are you's. Then both turned to the window looking at the scenery that never got old, enjoying each other's company, despite the silence. (A/N lol, not very talkative people! ^^)
"Kagome, wanna go to a park with me?" Inuyasha asked out of the blue. She shrugged, "Okay." Was her only response. The train came to a stop, at Cerulean Lake.
Kagome's POV
I continued to stare out the window, when Inuyasha grabbed my arm and pulled me up.
"Come on, let's go." He had something up his sleeve, this wasn't our stop. I shot him a puzzled look. He took my head in his hands and turned it to look out the window. My eyes widened in understanding, I was looking a park with a lake. My mouth formed an "O" but had no time to speak. Inuyasha pulled me out of the train before the doors closed. We walked out of the station and he crouched down. By now, I knew what to do. I climbed on and waited to be exhilarated once again. The wind rushed past my hair and I pulled my scarf closer, the winter air was chilly. I peered out from behind Inuyasha's curtain of black hair to look at the view. The lake was as clear as glass and cerulean blue, true to its name. There was a large island in the middle of the lake. It was clear that our destination was that island. There was a ferry waiting for passengers, but we passed the boat. My fists enclosed Inuyasha's uniform; I was so sure that we were going straight into the lake.
Inuyasha's POV
I smirked when I felt Kagome's hands tighten on my shirt. Gaining more speed, I took a strong leap into the air. Flashes from my first encounter with Kagome came back, making me smile. That day really changed my life, and he didn't know how right he was.
Kagome's POV
I slowly opened my eyes; we were as high as the birds! I let out a shudder of delight, it was a thrilling ride. But it ended much too soon. Before I knew it, Inuyasha's shoes had touched the ground. I explored our surroundings; we were in a wood type setting. There was a cement road that I guessed led around the island. I breathed out a wow. Inuyasha took my hand and we walked to the rental building. I squeezed his hand in excitement. (A/N remember last chapter!!! The holding hands thing!!)
Inuyasha's POV
We walked hand in hand to the white building. I was wondering how my hands became connected to Kagome's hands, but I didn't want to pull away. The clerk greeted us and I asked for one bicycle. Kagome looked at me in question, one?? I gave her one of my signature smirks, you'll see. The man gave us a bicycle and we walked it to the cemented path. I climbed on and motioned her on behind me. She gave me one of her smiles and climbed on, holding on to my waist. We rode around the island watching the lake's shores and the scenery. We played games with each other, hide and seek and tag.
Dusk was soon approaching and it was time to leave our special place. It was very memorable, there was no one there. Before we knew it, we were on the train ride back home. We walked out of the train station towards her house. It was then one snowflake fell. Then, another and another. This continued until there was a light snowfall.
Kagome's POV
I stared up in wonder at the sky; it was beautiful, like a snow globe. And best of all, I shared it with Inuyasha. We reached my house and we unclasped our hands. I whispered a soft bye and walked up the steps, feeling Inuyasha's eyes upon my back. I locked the front door and leaned upon it. I decided that this was the best day of my life. My thoughts were interrupted when my brother's voice cut through.
"She's home mom!" I grimaced. I knew I was going to be in trouble, the school officials had called my mom, informing her that I had ditched.
"Kagome." Her sharp stern voice led me to the living room. I knew I was in for it. But when I walked in, her expression softened. "Where were you today? Why didn't you attend school?" she asked curiously. I gulped; I knew I was going to be caught, so I just spilled out the whole truth. I rambled on and on about my day and how I spent it with Inuyasha. By the time I was done, I was blushing, out of embarrassment. But surprisingly, when I looked up, she was smiling.
"Kagome, I know you are old enough to make your own decisions, so I will let this slide. But if you ever do it again, please call me. I was worried sick. Besides, it's not like I didn't do these kinds of things when I was your age." Her eyes were sparkling, this was a good sign.
"Okay mama. I promise there won't be more of these kinds of days." I promised. I knew she trusted me and I didn't want to take advantage of it. She nodded at me, excusing me to my room. I gave her a quick smile and ran up the stairs.
I collapsed on my bed, snuggling into the sheets. After a long day, I was glad to be in such a warm bed. My thoughts of Inuyasha were interrupted by the depths of slumber.
