Chapter 3- Enter Koga, Inu's Best friend. Who knew?
Kagome tiredly turned to the sign that said, 'You are now in Southern Brook'. It had taken three days of non-stop driving, but she was finally there. Approximately seventy-two hours of countless beeping and endless roads of country. She was lucky that she had packed food in the passenger seat so that she wouldn't have to stop for food. As far as bathrooms went, she only went when need be.
Well now she was here and that's all that mattered. She could find Inuyasha, and proceed with her plan. But now she was out of food and she had to go to the bathroom, so she decided to drive in to a small diner.

"Hey Jack! Get me my usual!" a deep voice yelled, sitting down on a stool.
Koga was your typical twenty year old single guy. He partied with friends and went to work when he needed money. He dated. He really dated. But mostly he just hung out with his best friend. It sucked that he wouldn't be able to hang out with him as much anymore.
Out of the corner of his eye he spotted a nice looking girl. She looked a little like someone he knew, but it wasn't like they were identical. Hey, he never saw her in this town before. And he new a lot of people in this town. Maybe she was a relative of...... oh screw he'd just go say hi.
---
Kagome sat in the small booth, trying to make up her mind on what she would eat. But it was too hard to do that. Her mind kept venturing off toward what she would do when she met Inuyasha. Wait....When she met Inuyasha.....HOW would she meet Inuyasha?!
"Oh no! I came here for nothing! Really smart Kagome! Really smart!" she said, slapping her head.
"So your name's Kagome?" she heard.
Nodding, she looked up to see a nice looking guy with brown hair and blue eyes. He wasn't much taller than her, and stood right next to her, interest on his face.
"Looks like you've got a crisis on your hands missy." he said.
"And you are.....?"
"Koga. Koga for short."
Kagome only raised an eyebrow. When she didn't laugh at his joke he started to get nervous. Oh great. A critic.
"Uh, is there anything that I can help you with?" he asked.
"Um no thanks. I don't know you. I can find my own way around."
"Lost eh? I know my way around this place. I can show you where you need to be." he offered.
"Unless you know where some guy named Inu lives, you can't show me." she said, and stood up. Forget about the food. She would just go to a McDonalds' drive-through or something.
Getting into her car, she noticed that the young man was following her.
"Listen. I don't know if you're not used to getting turned down or what, but I don't like being stalked." she told him.
Koga got really close to the window. Grinning, he waited for her to turn on her car before saying, "I know where you need to be."
She stared at him. Should she believe him? She was met him and he knew where she was going? Well if she didn't follow him, then it was likely that she would have traveled all this way for nothing. But if she did follow him, it was likely that her name would turn up on the news, days later. She hated these situations.
"Here. You take your car and I'll take mine. I promise, I'll take you where you need to be." Koga said quickly.
What did she want with his best friend anyways? Was she a bill collector? Because that was all that Inuyasha needed. Some pretty woman on his doorstep asking for money. Another one anyways.
"O-okay. But I'm warning you, my father is a very rich man. A lawyer even. If I don't get back home by the time he told me to be home, he will track you down and put you under jail." she said in a dark voice.
Koga chuckled and got into his car. They both drove off forgetting about their food.
---
So what ifshe lied? Could anyone blame her? He probably wouldn't take it personally if she explained the whole situation to her.
She followed him for about ten minutes before they stopped in front of a small house. Kagome looked in the mirror. This was it. The moment of truth. She didn't exactly look sparkly fresh, but she had no way of cleaning up now.
Getting out of her car she followed Koga up the small steps leading towards the front door. It looked like a nice comfy home. Maybe four bedrooms.
"So what do you want with my pal again?" He asked, pushing the doorbell.
"Lets just say he's an old friend." she replied.
"Ha. Um. Kagome. There's a problem with that. See I've known Inuyasha my whole life and not once, do I remember such a pretty face as yours. Really, what do you want with him?"
"I uh-"
Before she could say anymore the door opened, revealing a tall, long-haired young man.
"Hey Koga. New girlfriend already?" the guy said, receiving a dirty look from Kagome and a chuckle from Koga.
"No Inuyasha. This one's for you." he laughed.
Both Inuyasha's, and Kagome's eyes widened. Inuyasha's eyes widened because of what Koga joked about this young woman belonging to him, when he knew that wasn't possible. Kagome's eyes widened because Koga said that that handsome guy was Inuyasha.
How could this be?' she thought. He said that he was a normal looking guy. That wasn't normal! That was gorgeous! Oh no...
"Inuyasha, this is Kagome. I found her over at the diner looking for you. Right Kagome?" Koga said.
Kagome just stood there, staring at this guy. This god-like creature that stood so patiently at the door.
"Kagome? Hellooo?" Koga waved his hand in her face.
"Huh?! Oh. What?" she asked.
"You were looking for Inuyasha, right?"
"I uh."
Inuyasha looked at Kagome.
"You uh?" he asked subconsciously.
That made Kagome jump. Koga looked between Inuyasha and Kagome.
"I uh, yeah I was looking for him." Kagome confessed.
"What for? Do I know you?" Inuyasha asked
Kagome nodded, but then realized that he didn't know her real name! Great, now she would have to introduce herself.
"H-hi I'm Kagome Higurahi. I live in Richards, Florida. I g-go to Richards University. And I major in E-English." she stuttered.
Both Inuyasha and Koga raised an eyebrow. What was with this girl? She knows Inuyasha so bad, yet she has to introduce herself. Oh boy, Koga could sense her nervousness. Joke time.
"Oh Inuyasha, can't you see it in her face? It's your long lost sister! You're back together after all of these years!"
"Shut up Koga!" Inuyasha yelled playfully. Before they knew it, they were in a friendly argument. But they didn't notice Kagome slowly backing up.
After hearing a car door slam, Inuyasha and Koga looked over, seeing Kagome start her car and get ready to drive out of there.
"Koga what's up with your new girlfriend?" Inuyasha played.
"Shut up man!" Koga yelled and ran out in front of the car before she could put it into gear.
He literally dragged her out of the car, picked her up, and carried her into Inuyasha's house, much to her own protest.
Sitting her on the couch, he went into the kitchen to get something to eat as Inuyasha shut the door and took a long look at her.
He had to admit. She was very pretty. But how the hell did she know him? He was certain that he had never seen her a day in his life.
"So would you like to tell me what you want from me?" he asked.
"I uh. Uh..." was all she could say to him. Dang it she was turning weak again! Building courage, she stood up and started talking.
"I came here to tell you that I'm sorry for what I did four years ago. I know it's stupid for me to just drive all the way up her after all of this time, but I had some free time and well, yeah..." she spilled.
Inuyasha was confused. What did this girl do to him four years ago? She made it seem so simple that they had met before, but he wasn't catching on.
"What exactly are you sorry for?" he asked, and she snapped her head over to him, guilt on her face.
"I lied to you." was all she said.
Inuyasha thought for a minute. She lied? To him? Four years ago? Gee this was really coming together! Sucks that he still wasn't getting it. Kagome saw the still-confused look on his face and finally decided to just come out and say it.
"I-I'm Kay." she said quietly.
He froze. Kay? The girl that broke his heart years ago by lying to him? The girl that he was almost in love with?
"K-Kay? That's you?"
She nodded.
Wow. All of the memories just sort of flew into both of their brains. Without even thinking, Inuyasha stood up and hugged Kagome.
"Wow, it's you! You're name is Kagome! I can't believe it!" he said and she hugged him back.
"I know!"
Koga watched from the kitchen, listening to every word. So Kagome was that Kay girl that Inu was always obsessing about when they were younger. 'Whoa, she's actually a girl!' he thought.
---
"Inuyasha? Who is that?" a voice came from the stairs, making Inuyasha jump away from Kagome like the speed of light.
"Uh heh heh! Hey honey! This is my friend, K-Kagome!." he said nervously.
Kagome looked at the girl on the stairs. She seemed a little bit taller than her, and her hair was longer, but it was odd. This person looked a little like her! Wait....Honey?!
"Well, what are you waiting for?! Tell her my name!" the girl said.
"Oh yeah, sorry dear. Kagome, this is my fiancee, Kikyo."
