R&Rs: Thanks for all the reviews you guys! I felt so relieved and happy at the same time! This time I didn't get any flames (thank you again!)! Also, I'm trying to upload faster and make my stories longer, but it might take some time since all of the ideas I just had in my head just went poof! Darn...and I was just about to write the chapter too! Grrr...My brother just brought home some manga and anime and I got distracted! Oh well...I guess I'll re-think them! Enough of me blabbering! On with the chapter! (As soon as I think of an idea)

Disclaimer: Nope...Don't own him...

"But this is--"

"Out out out."

Inuyasha pushed Hojo towards the door and pushed him out. Then he slammed the door so hard, the windows shook.

"--my house..."

Hojo sighed.

Why do I always get kicked out of my own place! Mannn...

After Inuyasha kicked Hojo out, he turned to Kagome.

"So tell me again why you ran away from the hospital!"

Kagome glared at him.

"That is none of your business! I can leave whenever I want to! You don't own me", Kagome angrily exclaimed.

"How can you say it's none of my business! I'm the one that brought you there!"

"And who's fault was it, that I had to go there in the first place", Kagome shot back.

This time, Inuyasha didn't have anything to defend himself with. He turned around and said 'Keh'

When Kagome finally calmed down, she decided saying that to him was probably over the line.

He's probably guilty again...Sigh, it's not my fault he came after me...Sheesh...

"Sorry."

Kagome looked at him. His back was still facing her.

Sigh. "It's alright. Just, lemme talk it over with Hojo-san."

"Hobo? What? Hobo-san? Who's that?"

Sigh. "The guy you kicked out, who happened to be the person who saved me and took me here!"

"Ohhhh...", Inuyasha said dumbly. "That guy..."

"Yes, that guy. Now let him in and I'll go with you."

"...Fine..."

Meanwhile, Hojo was pacing back and forth outside the apartment door.

"I wonder when they're gonna lemme back in? Do I have my keys? Nope...This sucks."

Then as if by magic, the door opened and out stepped the guy that intruded his house earlier. He didn't know what to say so he just stared.

"Hey, don't you know it's rude to stare at people?"

He turned red and looked away.

"Anyways, Kagome wants to talk to you."

Hojo's face lit up at the mention of Kagome's name.

"Kagome-san? Okay!"

He stepped in and went to the bedroom.

"Kagome-san?

Kagome looked up.

"Oh, Hojo-kun. Well, first of all, I want to apologize--"

"No need! You're always welcome here at my home."

"Thanks, but I'm gonna have to leave now. I have to go home."

Hojo's face went dark.

"Oh, okay! Umm...Kagome-san? Is there by any chance that Inu..Yasha...is your boyfriend?"

Kagome's whole face turned red.

"EH! Why would you say that! NO! No way! Of course not!"

Hojo's face relaxed at the sound of those words comming from her mouth.

Here's my chance! I can't waste it!

"Umm...then Kagome-chan? Do you think you can come with me to the movies this Saturday? I'd love it if you came with me."

Oh no! Is he asking me out! No way! I don't even know him!

"Um...I'm not sure...I think I might have plans with my friend Sango this Saturday...Sorry Hojo..."

Hojo's face went dark again.

"Oh...", was all he could muster.

Kagome couldn't help but feel bad for Hojo. He was a really nice and attractive guy.

"But maybe some other day okay? Here's my number if you ever want to call."

She grabbed a pen from the table andquickly jotted it down.

"There."

Hojo looked up and went into happy mode again.

"Thanks Kagome-san!"

"You're welcome Hojo. Now I guess I better be going."

She stood up and Inuyasha helped her to the door.

"You can come back anytime you want", shouted Hojo as they walked out the door.

"Okay!"

When they were finally away from the apartment building, Inuyasha spoke up.

"Hey Kagome?"

"Hmm?"

"...Um...Nevermind."

Kagome looked at him with a questioning look, but she let it past him and concentrated on walking without tripping.

I can't bring myself to ask her if she likes him or not! Argh! What was this feeling I got when I heard her talking to him?

He was pulled from his thoughts when someone or something ran into him.

"Hey! What's the big idea!"

Kagome gasped at the sight. Inuyasha just stared.

"Hi!"

So? How was it? I hope it was too bad! Anyways, I'm bummed from making so many mistakes at my music school. I sucked on my solos and everything! Grr! I told them I wanted to play guitar since it's my main instrument, but noooo...I had to play flute even though I sucked! Grr...But anyways, R&R! Thanks! xoxo
