-He just has something about him- She said when she found herself being interrogated by her friends. -and no I DO NOT mean the dog ears- all of her friends started laughing at this. -I just feel comfortable around him thats all. We are just friends. Good friends.- The way her friends looked at her when she said this made her blush deeply.
Inuyahsha hadnt been able to help himself. He just had to evesdrop. Isnt that what any respectable hanyou would have done? He was beginning to develop a weird relationship with the girl. He was her friend. Her close friend. She could count on him. He would always protect her, neither of them had any doubt on this point.
All of his friends looked at the relationship with a bit of distrust. She was different. She was an outsider to their little group of powerful youkai. She was a human, and whats more she was changing Inuyasha. He seemed softer all of a sudden. He would ditch his friends to go pick her up anywhere she wanted. And yet, she was not his girlfriend. They spoke all day on the phone, but nothing happened between them. They were together all day, but they had never kissed. It made no sense to them. There was definitely something fishy about this. They had even seen Inuyasha smile with a dreamy goofy look on his face. There was definitely something weird about this girl. His best friend Naraku set out to find out. He was not about to let one of his closest friends fall victim to a woman.
He observed the human from a distance. He quickly found out what was so special about her. She smiled frequently and genuinly. She had such a beautiful contagious energy around her. She was beautiful and strong loyal and smart. Before he realized it he developed something similar to feelings for this girl. He wasted no time in setting out to capture her heart. Inuyasha didnt really like this idea and wasted no time in letting Naraku know it.
-Dude theres other girls out there... just stay away from Kagome kay?-
-Inuyasha- Naraku said with a smile -I thought you said this girl was just your friend. You dont have feelings for her do you? Good Because I think I do. Shes your friend, maybe you can help. Talk to her will you? I think I can actually love her.-
Inuyasha didnt like this, he didnt like this at all, but what could he do? He decided not to do anything at all. But the next day he broke down. He had to know how she felt. It became a bigger priority than anything else. He called her.
-Hey whats up-
-Not much and you? Hey Inuyasha Ive been meaning to tell you, your friend Naraku asked me out last night.-
"So I didnt even need to ask" he thought... He didnt know why it bothered him so much that she had brought it up, it really shouldnt you know, he was dating somebody else at the moment anyway. She was his friend. Whats more Naraku was his best friend if anything he should b happy about it. -Yeah so?- He finally said
- I dont know, you know how we tell each other everything? Well that was it, I thought you should know. Anyways youre the one who knows him the best... any thoughts on the fact that he likes me?-
-You like him?-
-Not really but Im sure I could like him...- her voice was doubtful. Kagome was seriously confused... Inuyasha was a lot of things but cryptic was totally not one of them. But he was proud. She was sure of that fact.
-Just dont play with him kay? I already told him to stay away from you but he wont listen so he might actually like you... I dunno just dont play with him kay?- "I mean what am I supposed to say? Boy is this awkward"
On the other side of the phone Kagomes face was red... and if this was a cartoon you can bet steam would be coming out of her ears. How dare he think she was going to play with his friend! I mean come on... she was also his best friend... unless he didnt consider as good a friend as he considered Naraku. Dont play with him... aghh men! So insensitive... atleast Naraku wasnt like that.
-Thanks a lot Inuyasha! Bye!-
Inuyasha stared at the phone for a couple of seconds... This was definitely a first... she had just hung up on him! If she thought he was going to call her back and apologize she better think again! He would definitely never call back! I mean err at least give her a couple of minutes to cool down right?
