'Kay, so I finished this chapter.. though I'm pretty sure that no one read my first chapter anyway except for ONE person.. sadly.. so, if you did read it, please review! ♡

Of course, she didn't mean to laugh, it just burst out of her mouth! I mean, who CAN'T laugh when an dog hanyou completely loses his balance after hetries to impress her by lifting one eyebrowand plunges down from the branch he was resting on. 'If that's how he acts when he sees a girl, I wonder what happens at school?' Kagome wondered. He twisted and bent his back (it was quite gruesome to see, in a way) like cats do as he fell. He landed with a soft thud on the wet morning grass, crouched low on the ground on his hands and feet. The sound of his cracking joints as he rose on his feet filled the unwavering silence the gaped between them. That's when she began to laugh.. It began with a giggle, then a soft twinkle of laughter. Bewilderness, anger and confusion filled his face. "Be quite, wench!" he barked. (Hehe, get it? Barked..?) Kagome fell silent only for a second, then burst into laughter again, clutching her side as if to prevent them from spliting with laughter. With a growl, the Hanyou abruptly turned on his heel,as if leaving to go.

"Wait! Don't go!" Kagome yelped, suddenly afraid that she had broken this stranger's ego. Slowly, he turned back to the girl.

"Are you insane?" he asked, eyes opened wide as he stared at the red faced girl in front of him.

"No..," she replied, brushing her hair away from her face as the wind blowed, while she wiped the tears of laughter from her eyes at the same time. "It's just that you remind me of a cat."

"A CAT!" he screeched, as if that was the worst possible insult ever.

Then, the two teens burst into laughter together, as the sun spilt into the forest's dark shadows.

---------------------------x..,- (I realized that this chapter was too short, so I added some more.. here ya go!)

The two teens leaned against the trunk of Kagome's favorite tree, each on the opposite side from eachother.Kagome ran her fingers across the bumps and creases on the tree slowly, wondering how old this tree was. Suddenly, she was remembered by a thought she had forgotten about when she first saw the hanyou. Turning herself around, she turned until she could see the two dog ears perched on top of his head. "What's your name?" she asked, her fingers moving slowly towards the ears. 'Ooh, how silky they look..' she thought. "It's Inuyasha." he said suddenly. "Whaat? What's Inuyasha?" she said cluelessly, only focusing on how the ears twitched at each sound in the forest. "My name." he snorted, as if making fun of her clueless ways. "My name's Kagome, " and as she said this, she touched the tip of one of the ears, and began to rub them. 'They ARE silky!' she thought with child-like glee. Inuyasha stiffened, under her touch, and slowly relaxed. "Hey, we have something in common.." Kagome suddenly said sadly.

"What?"

"We're both outcasts. I'm a miko, and you're a hanyou."

"How'd you know?"

"I told you, I'm a miko, I know things."

Kagome suddenly brighted as if having a wonderful thought. "We can be friends! Which school are you going to?"

"The only one in town, the highschool one. Obviously,"he snorted again.

"Oh yeah.. Thatmeans we can hopefully sit together, and find other outcasts so they can be our friends too! No more lonelyness we can't endure," she smiled.

'If only it could be as easy as that..' Inuyasha though, but he nodded anyway, for his new friend's sake.

Giggling, Kagome said, "Now, it can be a happily ever after.."
