Chapter Three

Kagome sat in her office playing basket ball with the trash can. She crumbled up more paper and attempted more shots into the waste bin, but every time she threw the crumbled paper it would miss. Today was just not her day as she could not concentrate on a single thing. Every time she tried to concentrate, it seemed that her mind would wonder onto a certain someone. Her ex-boyfriend a matter of fact.

Their relationship was over and somehow Kagome could not accept that fact, but in the back of her mind she knew it was for the best. She was protecting him by keeping him away from her and by that she was keeping him away from suffering a horrible death.

At times, Kagome questioned if her life was important because in the end she would either die alone or let the one person who loved her die painfully. Why do I have to be the one cursed? I never did anything bad to anyone to make them hate me so much. She knew the question why she was cursed, but ignored it at times for the most part. She refused to accept the fact that her mom did some terrible things in the past and she would keep it that way.

Fiddling with the other little instruments lying around on her desk, Kagome decided that she needed to take a break. She needed to take a week or two off from work and maybe relax a little. Anything to get her mind back on track.

Picking up her suit jacket and her Coach purse, Kagome got ready to leave. The office did not need her today and with all of her work done, Kagome was going to go home and take a nice hot bubble bath.

Kagome pushed the button for the intercom to contact her secretary to tell her that she was leaving and that she was taking the rest of the day off.

"Alright," Kagome heard her secretary say, "But before you leave there is someone here to see you."

Kagome rolled her eyes just when she wanted to go relax someone had to give her a load of work to do.

"Alright," Kagome said, "Send them in."

Kagome took off her suit jacket again and hung it in the closet , while putting her purse away in her drawer. She heard someone knock at her door and told them to come in. Her back was toward him as she was putting away her stuff.

"Please take a seat and I'll be with you in a moment," Kagome said politely.

"That won't be necessary Kagome," a masculine voice said. Kagome knew that voice from anywhere as she stopped dead in her tracks.

Turning around she stared at two molten golden eyes as they pierced through her. Not now. Why now?

"Why are you here?" Kagome asked harshly.

"I think you know very well why I'm here," Inuyasha said.

"As a matter of fact I don't know why you're here," Kagome sneered at him, "The last time I talked to you was when we had broken up a few years ago. It was also very clear that you didn't want to hear or talk to me again when I started to go out with Sesshomaru."

"That was the case then, but this is different now."

"And what makes this time any different?"

"Look, I'm not here to talk about me and you. I'm here to talk about you and Sesshomaru."

"What about me and Sesshomaru? We dated and then we broke up. End of story. There is nothing to talk about," Kagome said and got her things ready to leave. She did not need to deal with this. She took two steps toward the door and each time she did Inuyasha stepped in front of her to intervene.

Inuyasha grabbed her arms and pinned her to the wall. This time he would not let her go. He was going to get answers and he didn't care if he had to beat it out of her.

"Why did you break his heart?" Inuyasha asked.

"I don't know what your talking about," Kagome answered trying to avoid looking Inuyasha in the eyes, "Even if I did, it's none of your business."

"Last time I checked you guys were madly in love with each other so what changed? You broke his heart just like how you did to mine."

"Things change. Sometimes people fall out of love and that's what happened to me and Sesshomaru," Kagome said trying to cover up her lie, "Why does it even matter to you. You hate Sesshomaru so why are you so worried about him?"

"Because you did the same thing to him that you did to me. We were madly in love and one day you just decide to break it off with me. It just doesn't make sense. I want to know the truth," Inuyasha said releasing one of Kagome's arms and held onto the side of her cheek as he made her look at him.

Those eyes, they reminded her of the very same eyes that he had. Kagome laid her head on Inuyasha's shoulder as she decided to tell him the truth.

"Because it was killing me inside to be with you. I didn't want to hurt you."

"What do you mean hurt me? You were hurting me when you were denying me."

"Because if I stayed with you then you…."

Just then the door flew open. All eyes were on the intruder as the room grew silent. Kagome could hear her secretary telling him that she was in a meeting and did not want to be disturbed.

"Mr. Tashio, she's in a meeting I'm sure she will see you after she is done with her client."

At the doorway stood Sesshomaru in all of his not so glory self. He looked like a mess as his hair seemed like he hadn't been combed in weeks and his clothes seemed like they were a week old as Kagome noticed that it was the same outfit he was wearing on the day she had broken up with him.

Inuyasha and Kagome stared at Sesshomaru as they were not expecting this. Just then Kagome did the only thing that came to mind and grabbed Inuyasha's head as she pulled him down for a forced kiss. Though it didn't seemed forced as Inuyasha responded nicely.

As the kiss ended Kagome slipped out of Inuyasha's arms and ran past Sesshomaru. She knew that it was the worst mistake she had ever done but maybe she could at least get Sesshomaru to start hating her so he could just forget about her.

Author's Note: Hope you like my story so far. Sorry for any grammar or spelling mistakes. That's not exactly my best area, but I try. I'll explain the whole situation of Inuyasha's and Kagome's past in upcoming chapters, but for right now I just want to get Inuyasha involved with the story.

I know I have lots of fans who read my stories but how about this if I get 5-10 reviews then I'll have the next chapter up by next week. It's just that reviews are a modivation for me to write more because then I know people actually like my stories. Even though I shouldn't really care about what other people think, but it's just me.

Thank you for reading my story and I hope you review. I just want to take the time and thank all the reviewers for reviewing.
