Summary: They had been seeing each other in secret for a reason. They wanted something that didn't involve their family. They already had to deal with expectations and the impending uncertainty of their graduation. Sadly good things have to come to an end.

Pairing: Kagome/Sasuke

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Enjoy

Kagome's eyes fluttered opened as her internal clock refused to allow her anymore rest. She groaned rolling onto her back looking out the corner of her eye. Through the window the light of the early morning streamed in. She got out of bed with a stretch, walking on the tip of her toes to her closet making to sure step over the slumbering blonde in her floor. She cracked open her closet grabbing some clothes. She flattened her feet against the chilled floor as she walked from her room to the bathroom across the hall.

She stripped out of her pajamas. Before she stepped into the shower, turning on the taps. She lost track of time as she relished in the warm water. She was startled out of her serenity by a harsh knock on the door. "C'mon girl, you're burning daylight." Her granddad called through the door, she finished up as she heard him shuffling down the hall. She dried off. She grabbed her clothes slipping on a pair of underwear before pulling on a high necked, sleeveless, low back leotard. She put on a pair of shorts, pulling up a pair of socks that hugged her thighs then finishing by putting on a long sleeve oversized sweater that hung off one shoulder. As she left the bathroom she pulled half of her waist length hair into a high ponytail.

She walked out of her home. Sunlight flittered through the leaves of that surround their home, she turned down a worn path stopping beside a tree that had low hanging vines. She grabbed them, she paused looking around for her grandfather, he wasn't near by. She wrapped her foot in vine, hefting her body up to the next. She stepped out her foot to gain purchase on the branch. She walked along the limb using her natural balance instead of chakra, but she would wobble every now and then. Her mother could do it with no problem and she wasn't a trained nin. Kagome walked from branch to branch with little uncertainty occasionally jumping to another when the time called. She was proud when she reached the final tree before the clearing she trained in. The clearing was wide, with a giant lake in the middle, very secluded. She bounced off the branch curling in on herself to do a front flip. She landed in a handstand, before propelling herself up for another flip, this time landing on her feet.

"Come now, Kagome we don't have time for your theatrics." Her grandfather chided as he emerged from the treeline. "Just because the academy starts late today doesn't mean you have time for pointless flipping about." He waved his arms with exaggeration, as he walked onto the surface of the lake. Kagome just smiled as she took off her oversized sweater, throwing it over a low hanging branch before she jogged over the water the join him. He made a few signs creating water clones of himself.

Kagome slipped into her battle stance, she could do this. She's been practicing. She stood her ground, her hands quickly signed. "Tornado of Water." Water swirled angrily around her, before funnels of water encased the clones wrapping tightly around them until the melted out of existence. She jumped away from the water's surface when a newly created clone attempted to grab her from under the surface. The vortexes crashed back into the water as she signed another attack. "Water Release: Water Dragon Whip." A sizable orb of water emerged from the surface, whips sprouting from its surface attacking the clone relentless. Kagome landed on the surface of the water, concentrating on the orb, maintaining a steady flow of chakra. Her concentration was broken when she felt approaching chakra signatures. However this caused the orb the disburse as another clone rushed at her distracted form landing a punch to her diaphragm, air was painfully expelled from her.

She broke the water's surface, chest screaming in agony as her lungs craved air. She regained her composure flipping around, quickly making more signs. "Water Release:Water Whip" She said releasing what little air bubbles she had as she grasped the dense water, swinging it at the remaining shadows above the surface. She swam back to the top, breaching the water, hauling herself to sit on the water. She panted, head slumped, shoulders sagged, clenching her fists painfully.

"What happened?" Her grandfather demanded, voice strained.

"I let my concentration slip." She whispered more to herself than to him.

Before he scolded her he felt the new arrivals. He turned, while Kagome looked from under her bangs. Her breath caught in her throat. "Uchiha-san" He greeted, with a slight bow.

"Higurashi-san." The man nodded in greeting.

"Is there something you need?" He asked masking his shock of being visited by the patriarch and his son, Sasuke. Kagome felt every fall to her stomach. She resisted the urge to move from her place, she wouldn't move a muscle. If she seemed indifferent then there was no reason so anyone to assume anything.

"Not need but I feel there's something that needs to be brought to your attention." The patriarch started. "It seems as though my son and your granddaughter have a relationship.."

Kagome didn't tremble as she felt her grandfather's eyes shift over to her form. "Is that so, one of strict friendship I hope." She could feel the dread hitting her, this wasn't real. This wasn't happening, this had to be a nightmare.

"Why don't you ask her?" Fugaku said gesturing towards the.

"Kagome," Her granddad's voice was tense. They made eye-contact and that was all he needed to have his answer. Sasuke knew he couldn't get to her, but he had to restrain himself from trying as he watch the silent transaction. As Kagome visibly flinched from her grandfather's gaze. He stared at her hoping she would look up. The eldest man turned to them, and Sasuke didn't hold back his intense glare. "How would you like to join us for late morning tea." His statement left no room for argument.
