Just a short chapter. I wanted to write more it just happened to work better this way I think.

They both slowly sipped their lattes slowly from opposite sides of a corner table at Starbucks. Kagome was incredibly nervous, not only where people staring at her and Inuyasha because of his ruff appearance, but she couldn't believe she had actually asked this guy to come with her anywhere.

'I have only gone on one date in my whole life and now I'm asking random homeless people to go with me to Starbucks? This is a whole new ball game.' She frowned.

'Impulsive decisions suck,' she decided thoughtfully while glancing up from her drink to see him staring right back at her.

"What!" she said harshly slamming her latte hard down on the table and make drops of it fly onto the table, right onto her hands.

"Ouch! Hot, burn, hot!" she yelled holding onto her hand desperately trying to soothe it.

"Klutz…" Inuyasha said as he got up from his side of the table and crossed over to sit next to her in an empty chair. Picking up a napkin from the table he dipped it in a glass of water that was on the table.

"Give me your hand," he asked as he knelt next to her. She blushed and turned away from him embarrassed. Inuyasha sighed in frustration and put his hand on her shoulder and forcibly turned her towards him, grabbing her injured hand and lightly dabbing at the minor burns.

"Hey!" she yelled but then quickly quieted down, everyone including the employees where giving her weird looks. It was making her even more nervous then having this street bum in front of her dabbing at her hand with a wet clothe.

"Awe, Takuto! Isn't that sweet! Young love! Remember when we where like that..." an old lady gushed from two tables away. She leaned against the old man next to her watching Inuyasha and Kagome with star struck eyes. He smiled and kissed her on her cheek.

"We still are," they both smiled at each other, lost in their own little world now.

Inuyasha over heard all the whispering and quickly let go of her hand and sat back down on the opposite side of the table after throwing the napkin away. She let out a sigh of relief and looked down at her hand, surprisingly it felt better now.

Kagome looked at him questioningly; he hadn't made any type of expression since they came into Starbucks. She couldn't take it, she was a girl who grew up with chatty friends who never stopped talking. It used to annoy her but now not having that sound was highly distressing.

"So, how old are you?" she said trying to get some type of reaction out of him. Plus she was curious.

"16." He said dully looking out the window next to their table. He seemed to want to be anywhere but here.

"What! You're 16 and living on the streets! You're my brother's age for god sakes!" she all but shrieked. She was shocked, she had thought he was older then her, but he was 2 years younger.

'Oh my god, he's just a kid! I hate to say this but I pity him. It must take real strength emotionally and physically to live like he does.'

Little did she know how right she was.

He glared at her and then looked down at his drink blushing a bit.

"What, it's not my fault princess. Feh, your even younger then me though. You're what? 15? 14? Am I getting warmer?" he said with a smirk.

"Nope, I'm older then you bucko. 18, my birthday was a couple months ago." She stuck out her tongue at him as his jaw fell to the floor.

"What! But you haven't even developed breasts yet, how could you be 18!" he started laughing.

"Hey you bastard, my breasts are plenty big enough!" she brought her hand down in attempt to smack him good when he caught her hand mid-flight. He slowly looked up at her with dark eyes. The darkest violet she had ever seen. He was scaring her again.

"You better not try that again. No matter what you might think where not friends, I don't 'have' friends. If there is such a thing. Until that day when I trust someone, no one will touch me without my permission. Got that?" he glared at her and threw her hand down, getting up harshly from the table making a screeching sound with his chair.

All chattering in the café' stopped immediately.

"Thanks for the drink babe, I'll be going now." He said smirking as he walked over to her side again and kissed her hard on the cheek.

She blushed so badly and was so shocked she didn't even notice as he left the café' and crossed the street. Out of her life,

for now anyways.
