From Hatred To Love

Chapter 30- Kikyo's Planning Beings

Kikyo gripped the steering wheel tightly as she tried to think of who Inuyasha was talking about. She had felt an indescribable pain ever since Inuyasha had told her that he didn't love her. He was in love with someone else. Kikyo held back the tears that began to form in her eyes. ' And he was so harsh.' Kikyo whipped the tears away from her eyes and kept her eyes on the road.

' I am not going to cry,' she thought. ' I'll just figure this out. Who could Inuyasha be in love with? I haven't seen him with any girls lately.'

Kikyo brought her hand up to her chin and attempted to remember who Inuyasha had been spending a lot of time with but it was hard for her since she had to drive at the same time. She sighed and parked her car next to a clothes store.

She opened the door to the vehicle and and stepped out. Kikyo smoothened her skirt and fixed her hair before walking into the clothes store.

" Maybe shopping would get my mind off this," she said quietly to herself and began to browse through the different skirts but she couldn't think about shopping, her mind began wandering off to what had happened earlier that day. She simply couldn't forget what Inuyasha had said and Kagome was there which made Kikyo hate the girl even more.

" Damn it," Kikyo muttered and gripped a shirt that she was looking at. " Higurashi is the only reason I'm in this situation. It's all her fault that this crap is happening to me!"

Kikyo swore under her breath when her vision became blurred. She was crying again. She turned away from the clothes rack and began to walk out the store but stopped when she saw a familiar face.

She looked over at the girl curiously. It was that girl Rin. She remembered clearly that Rin didn't like her and always spoke about how Kagome was better than her. She stepped close behind the girl. She was talking on the phone. Kikyo pretended to be browsing through clothes and fixed her attention on what Rin was talking about.

" It's true! I know you don't believe me but I saw it with my very own eyes!" Rin squealed and paused so the other person could talk. " Yes she's with Inuyasha. They were making out on his bed for goodness sake!"

Kikyo gasped but covered her mouth quickly when Rin turned around curiously to see who had made the sound. She shook her head and continued to talk. Kikyo was still in shock of what Rin had said. Who was Inuyasha making out with... on a bed!

" Of coarse they didn't have sex!" Kikyo smiled in relief as Rin smirked. " But they would have if I didn't interrupt them... ok, ok I'm kidding. I don't think Kagome would do that with him... yet."

That was all Kikyo needed to hear. Her anger grew and her face suddenly became red. It was Kagome all that time. Why hadn't she seen it before and tried to breakup their relationship?

Kikyo really wanted to step away, she had heard enough but her body wasn't co-operating with her mind at the time so she gave up and decided to listen some more of what Rin was saying about Inuyasha and Kagome.

" Yeah, I know. I'm so happy that they finally got together!" Rin squealed and began to walk around the store looking at some clothes. Kikyo kept right on her tail and made sure to keep out of sight.

" You should have seen Inuyasha when Kagome left. He was all dreamy and he was smiling... yes I'm not joking smiling. Like a goofy smile. Those two are so in love. Yeah Kagome let it slip and then Inuyasha told her how he felt."

Kikyo growled and glared at the girl with the cellphone pressed against her ear. ' That Rin girl was planning to get them together the whole time!'

Kikyo didn't even bother to continue listening to Rin's conversation. She had heard enough. She quickly waled to the door with a lot on her mind. Now she really had some thinking to do.

" I'm home!" Kagome said when she entered though the front door. Mrs. Higurashi peeped from the doorway of the living room and smiled at her daughter.

" Kagome!" she said. " Nice to see that you finally came home."

The miko blushed and walked to where her mother was.

" Well, I was having so much fun at Inuyasha's that I completely lost track of time."

Mrs. Higurashi smiled.

" You two seem to be getting closer than before. I can't wait 'til the children!" Mrs. Higurashi exclaimed.

" Mama," Kagome blushed. " I-"

" Oh wait I almost forgot, Sango's waiting upstairs for you she said she really wanted to talk to you."

" About what?" Kagome asked.

" Oh about you and Inuyasha finally admitting your feelings for each other and now you two are together. That's what!" Mrs. Higurashi replied cheerfully. Kagome's mouth hung open.

" Wha...wait...ho...how did you know about that?" Kagome asked her face beet red. Her mother just winked at her before reminding her daughter that Sango had been waiting a really long time and shooed her off to her bedroom.

Kagome opened the door and stepped into her bedroom. Sango was sitting quietly on the bed looking at a picture with the four of them. She looked up when the door quietly shut.

" Kagome!" she said and ran up to hug the girl. Kagome was slightly confused at Sango's behavior. " I'm so happy for you... and Inuyasha too of coarse."

Kagome didn't hug her friend back. She was slightly confused and wanted to ask Sango how her mother knew about what had happened when the whole drama with Inuyasha had only occurred a couple of hours ago.

" Sango how do you know about what happened already and my mom-"

Sango pulled away from her friend and looked at her still smiling. She sat on Kagome's bed.

" It's so simple Kagome."

" Huh?"

" Rin told me on the phone about a half hour ago."

Kagome sighed. Rin had always manged to spy on her and Inuyasha with none of them noticing. ' Rin could be one good spy with a little more practice.'

" Wait you know everything?"

" Everything. She called me and told me all the details when I was walking home with Miroku, oops!" Sango said and clasped her hand over her mouth when she noticed what she had said.

" Walking home with Miroku, huh?" Kagome asked and smiled at her friend.

" Uh, I meant that I was, well he- we were- Rin said-"

" You seemed to have no explanation at all Sango," Kagome cut her off. " Guess I'm not the only one who's dating someone. Explain."

Sango sighed and looked down at her lap, muttering cures for her stupid outburst.

" Fine," she said. " Miroku and I went on only two dates together, ok!"

" Hmm, I see," Kagome said and rubbed her chip still smiling as amusement danced in her eyes. " And would you consider you and Miroku a couple?"

" I don't know," Sango replied quietly.

" One more question. Does Miroku grope you when you're kissing him?"

Sango blushed and the question and hid her face in her hands.

Inuyasha pushed through the crowd at school. He was going to be late for science it he didn't hurry it up. He knew exactly what Kagome would say if he arrived late: How do you expect to learn if you're late for class all the time. ' Kagome, Miss good- goody two shoes,' Inuyasha smiled at himself despite the thoughts. ' but I love her anyway.'

The hanyou manged run though the door two seconds before the bell rang. He walked over to Kagome and took his usual seat next to her with that Kikyo behind them.

" Inuyasha, what took you so long to get there?" Kagome whispered.

Inuyasha smiled and her and took her hand from under the table in his.

" Rin kept me up late. She wanted my help to decide which napkins were better."

" Napkins now?" Kagome asked and giggled at the thought. " But I can't blame her. If I had a wedding to plan, I would be like that too."

" You should take my place and tell me how it feels. I would gladly change places with you for a day," Inuyasha said.

" I don't think I can allow you to do that you might kill Shippo by the end of the day," Kagome giggled.

" Hey I'm a patient guy, it's just that-"

Inuyasha stopped talking when Mrs. Kilo enter the classroom. She rested her large suitcase on the table and whipped the sweat from her brow.

" Sorry I'm late class. Now let's get to work... oh and Good Morning!"

No one answered her. Everyone just stared as some began to grumble when she said the word work. She ignored them and dug hastily into her suitcase before taking out some neatly stacked papers.

" Surprise test everyone!" she said. Everyone groaned. Inuyasha growled and let the curses fly freely out of his mouth. Kagome pressed her heel into the hanyou's foot when she saw Mrs. Kilo coming towards them.

" Ow! Wench!" Inuyasha snarled and glared at the girl sitting next to him. Kagome looked strait ahead and pretended that she didn't hear him.

Mrs. Kilo passed out the question papers. Inuyasha held the paper in his hand and looked at the paper and looked at the first question.

He did understand the first question at all. ' What the hell is that?' Inuyasha's mind screamed. The manged to scan through the questions until he arrived at the final one. This time he couldn't keep his thoughts in his head.

" What the fu- ouch!"

Kagome had one again slammed her heal on his foot.

" I failed that test!" Inuyasha said to himself.

" Well maybe if you studied more you might have passed," Kagome said when she overheard him. " I can't wait to get back that paper to see how I did!"

" Yeah me too, can't wait," Inuyasha replied sarcastically. The miko rolled her eyes and hooked her hand through his. Inuyasha was a bit surprised at her movements and looked over at her curiously.

" Kagome-"

" Wanna come over today?" the miko asked still staring strait ahead. " My mother would love to see you again."

" Uh... I guess," Inuyasha said. Kagome looked over at him and smiled.

" Ok then. This is going to be interesting."

The two stopped walking immediately when Kikyo stood in front of them blocking their way. When Kikyo normally came into contact with the two, she was frowning, with her hands on her hips and glaring at Kagome but this time she looked different. Were they seeing wrong? Kikyo was smiling at them, hands behind her back and looked rather...shy? She smiled warmly at the two.

" What do you want Kikyo?" Inuyasha barked. Kikyo flinched at his tone of voice and opened her mouth to respond but Kagome spoke before she did.

" What are you up to?" Kagome asked suspiciously.

Kikyo shook her head but still had that smile on her face.

" I just wanted to be nice today. I heard that-"

" You're up to something. Spit it out bitch!" Inuyasha snapped. The couple expected Kikyo's smile to disappear and for her to loose her temper and yell at them but she didn't She held a calm face but this tie she wasn't smiling as much. She looked dead serous.

" I'd like to call it truce, Hig- Kagome," Kikyo said and stretched out her hand towards Kagome. The miko titled her head to the side and looked at Kikyo's outstretched hand. She slowly turned her head away.

" No," she said after a long pause. Now she knew Kikyo was going to explode.

" Fine," Kikyo sighed. " It's just that, I feel bad for what I did to you for the past couple of years. I just wanted to say that I'm sorry for being mean to you."

Kikyo began to walk away her head bowed.

" Hey wait a second!"

Kikyo inwardly cheered when they called her back. She was even more happy when she noticed that it was Inuyasha's voice. She turned around with a gleaming smile.

" Yes?" she asked.

" What's the deal? Why do you suddenly want to be nice?"

" Because Inuyasha, I just do. I do have a conscience you know."

" Or maybe it's because you want to take Inuyasha away from me," Kagome accused and gripped Inuyasha's arm tighter. Kikyo saw the gesture and smiled at Kagome. Something that she never thought she'd do in her life.

" I have to admit I still love Inuyasha," Kikyo said and smiled more when Kagome squeezed Inuyasha's arm even tighter. She took one glance at Inuyasha to see his face turned in the other direction she smirked and continued. " but I won't try to breakup your friendship with him. I've decided why waste my time when Inuyasha doesn't love me back, right?"

" Yeah," Inuyasha mumbled. Kagome looked up at him rather confused. He was acting strange. Usually he would be insulting Kikyo and telling her to go be a slut somewhere else but instead he said nothing.

Kikyo turned around slowly and began to walk away once more.

" I'll see you two later."

Kikyo smirked when she no longer saw the couple. She clenched her fists together as the image of Kagome clutching on to Inuyasha for her dear life came into her head. The two were together and it was going to take some time to make them drift apart. ' And I know exactly what to do,' she thought and smirked.
