Third Time's a Chance and She isn't Taking (Point... Click... DELETE)
Kagome was absolutely sick of it. She had gotten back from another horrible date the night before, and there was no way she was going to allow herself to be subjected to that again. Her best friend had assured her that internet date was a good idea, that she would be able to meet more acceptable men, and that nothing would go wrong. Well... that turned out to be a load of crap.
Two horrible dates- one with a timid guy who wouldn't stop apologizing, and one with a loud, aggressive man who had a possessive instinct she just couldn't deal with. Hojo, her first date, had spent half the night apologizing to her, and the other half of the night apologizing to everyone else! He was a nice guy, but he wanted to keep everyone happy, and that just wasn't going to be possible. Kouga- her second date- on the other hand, had no problem caring about anyone but himself. He had taken her to a monster truck show- amid mild protest- and announced to all his friends that she was now his woman. He ignored her when he wasn't trying to feel her up.
Needless to say, Kagome felt no inclination to continue such a pattern.
Logging onto her computer, she was even more enraged by the sight of another e-mail from that damned dating service. Growling to herself, she clicked it, not even bothering to read the profile. "Well," she said to herself, "I sure as hell am not going to give this thing another chance. I don't care what they say about 'third time's a charm', this guy will be no different from the others."
Hovering the cursor with an almost sadistic pleasure over the delete button, she felt no guilt or regret in so callously dismissing him without even a chance. "Goodbye," she said, glancing for a moment at the name. "Sorry Inuyasha, but I'm not going to waste my time again. Go get yourself an easy loser somewhere else."
And with one click, another chance was erased forever.
DELETE.
