Chapter 3

Inuyasha had showed her to his favorite spot, a bench below an old tree. He told her it was called the Goshinkobu tree and it was always there for him.

"So did you come with anyone tonight?" He asked her.

She tore her gaze away from the tree and snapped at him for interrupting her thinking. "Yes as a matter of fact I did."

"Oh" Was his only reply.

She felt sorry for him (because she knew that he didn't meant to) and was about to apologize when he turned away and started walking away. He mumbled something that closely resembled bye.

'Wait, why is he walking? Why did he say bye?' She thought about it for a second and realization dawned. She ran to catch up.

"Inuyasha! Inuyasha! Slow down for a second."

"Why? Why don't you find whoever you came here with and enjoy yourself?" He answered bitterly. 'And so close… figures… who would ever want a hanyou anyways?'

"OK Inuyasha. Number one, I can't because they are with their dates-"

"Umm… they?"

"-and number two… well… I wanted to get to know you because you seem like a really sweet guy…"

'Could that mean… that she likes me? Got to stay cool or she'll think you're nuts… Wait. Could she be only after my money? I'll test her and if she passes…'

'Crap. He's not talking… I tried to speak my mind and he's probably anxious for this night to be over. Oh Kami, Help me!'

He turned to her and was about to say something important and well thought out when, all of a sudden, screams rung out. People were running and screaming for help. There were blazes starting to engulf non-living objects. Then these two big guys in masks swooped Kagome and Inuyasha up and sprinted off in different ways. When each of the firemen had safely moved them out of the area, they got police officers to escort everyone home. One escorted Kagome home and another escorted Inuyasha to a hotel to spend the night.

Dun, dun, dun, dun…. What will happen next? Stay tuned for more episodes of…

Will Cinderella ever find her prince? I'm having fun here while just making it up as I go. No matter, hope everyone enjoys my writings. Feel free to leave comments… or not if you don't want to. I'm just saying.

Love you guys,
