Im not saying you will but just a warning…ANYWAYS Hope you like this chappy!

Last time- "I like…

Now: Almost Finding Out

"Sesshoumaru" I said in a low voice. I hide my blush by looking at the ground.

"Really! Wow he never had anyone like him. Only for his looks. He never had friends before we came in. He was never the talkative type. He still talks but only when spoken to. Weird huh?"

"No I was like that when I was younger. Had no friends always home reading or writing something. I never had a friend until Rika she was my first best friend." I said while walking in the house. My bangs where covering my face.

"Was?" San asked. While following me.

I turned around to face her. "Yeah. She killed herself. Jumping off the schools' roof. She was being beaten by her parents. They'd always put her down. The never said anything spiriting like o honey your home! or look you got an A on your test! They never talked to her only when they beat her. More like they yelled at her. That's not much of a home to go to." I said with a hint of anger in my voice.

"Sorry. I didn't know."

"Its not your fault……it…was horrifying watching her on the side of the roof…Friends aren't supposed to watch friends die." I said while I remembered that day the day I dread my hole life.

Flashback

"NO YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS RIKA!I SCREEMED

"I cant take this anymore. I don't have to take this abuse." Rika said with tears sliding down her face.

"You don't! You're my friend and I don't want you to go anywhere...RIKA!"

"Friend? What friend? You never where my friend. You where always out. You never asked me to come to your house, I never meet your mom or dad. You where always working. Had no time for friends. Huh?" She gave me a hurtful glare.

"I-I-I. ." she cut me off

"GRRR don't you get it! You were never my friend!" while she was saying this she was walking to the side of the roof.

"NOOO! STOP! I DONT WANT TO BE ALONE again!" I said while running to her. She was on the edge.

"Stop" I did "You. Were. Never. My. Friend." Rika turned

I stared to run. "NO NO NO NO NOOOOO!" I was almost there when she turned her head with a hatful face and said "Good Bye." She turned. I am so close but not close enough...she fell forward..

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I leaned over the side and as I saw her heart-breaking face as she's fell. Eyes closed. Tears dripping out.

My hand out stretched and tears cascading down my face.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

END FLASHBACK

"Kagome! Kagome! Are you alright!" Sango said while shaking me.

I gasped I had sweat running down my face and panting really hard "It was…just a memory."

"Don't do that again that scared me!"

With the boys

"Why does she work and why couldn't we go to her house?" Miroku asked

"Its obvious. She doesn't want to talk about it. And she didn't want us to see." I said in a are-you-that-stupid tone.

"Sorry dude."

" Its just she…she's a puzzle you know." I said

"O look who wants to hug her. Who want to kiss her. Look wh.." miroku sang.

"Shut the hell up!" I said with a pink tint rushing to my eyes.

"Ok. Ok just put me down!"

I put him down. 'something isn't right.'

"So are you going to ask her out?"

"Maybe." 'I hope she's alright.'

With the Girls

"What was it about? Was it of Rika?"

"Yeah when she committed suicide. She was asking all these questions. She wanted to know why she never came over my house or why she never meet my parents." I said in a low voice.

"Then why didn't you?"

"I didn't really have much of a ho…" I realized what I was saying and stopped.

"What you say?"

"Nothing." 'Damn I almost told her. I got to be careful next time.'

"Well…when your birthday?" she changed the subject.

"Next three weeks. On the fourth."

"Well we got to get your birthday ready."

"I don't want a party. There's not much to celebrate." I said looking away from her.

"Why? Its your birthday"

"Rika…….she killed herself on my birthday. Why would I be celebrating her death." I said in a whisper.

Sango had a look of horror on her face.
