Life will never be the same.

(Normal POV)

Kagome and Shuuichi went to school everyday and spent many hours hanging out at each other's homes when studying wasn't constant, sometimes they would even study together. The two seemed inseparable but Kagome was still bothered by the fact that Yoko was no longer.

Kagome would sometimes slip up and call Shuuichi Yoko and sometimes would even try to rub his non-existing fox ears. A few times at school Kagome's friends would see her and Shuuichi and ask her if she was dating him.

Shuuichi didn't have a lot of problems with Kagome calling him Yoko in private but when she would slip it at school it was a whole different story. He knew she was tying to deal with the fact that he was human but it was still hard everyday having to come up with new excuses for why she called him by his demon name.

Hiei would hang out with the two a lot, a whole more than to Kagome's liking. It's not that she didn't like him it was just that she didn't know if he liked her he was all ways glairing at her and sometimes would tell Shuuichi to leave her. On one of those days Kagome truly believed he was going to leave her.

Kagome and Shuuichi were at the park sitting in the flowers as Shuuichi showed off what was left of his powers. He picked a rose that was just started to bud and used his powers to make it bloom and gave it to Kagome. Kagome giggled when she saw that the rose was now a sparkling gold.

"Oh Shuuichi it's beautiful." She smiled and leaned up against him. "They remind me of your eyes when you were Yoko."

Shuuichi smiled and rested his head on top of her smooth black hair. "I sorry you may never see them again."

She looked up at him and looked into his light green eyes. "I will. I know I will."

Just before they were going to kiss Hiei appeared in front of them and smirked. "I should learn when to make my entrances." He chuckled. "By all means go on I'll wait."

Shuuichi sighed as he looked up at his short demon friend. "All right Hiei what do you want?"

Kagome slouched a bit and knew this date was going to go nowhere.

"I need to talk to you." Hiei said. "So leave the winch and let's get out of here."

"Winch?!?!?" Kagome yelled and stood up. "Oh you have gone to far now. Let me remind you who is taller and can squish you like a bug at any time."

Hiei rolled his eyes. "Hn, I'd like to see you try. Seriously fox you shouldn't stay with a girl who doesn't now when to keep her mouth shut, maybe I should shut it permanently." He smiled as he flicked a bit of his sword out of its sheath.

"That's enough Hiei." Shuuichi raised his voice and stood up. "I'll go with you." He placed a hand on Kagome's shoulder. "I sorry I have to cut our date short Kagome. I'll see you at school."

Kagome sighed but still nodded. "All right see you tomorrow."

He kissed her quickly and walked away with his friend. She wondered if maybe he would actually listen to Hiei one day and leave her. What if that was what Hiei was going to talk him about right now?

(Kagome's POV)

I went home and decided to get some studying done. I was crushed don't get me wrong but I knew that I couldn't let Yoko revolve around my life every minute of the day. I had to study and I only hoped I wouldn't fall asleep before I got one sentence in. It was now ten o'clock.

I wonder what Hiei is talking to Shuuichi about? Maybe it was the many reasons of why he should leave me. Oh why can't I get him out of my mind? I have to study. I looked down at my math book and all the numbers on it looked like random scribbles scattered around the pages. Maybe tonight just wasn't a good night to study so I'm going to go to bed now.

(Shuuichi's POV)

"Oh welcome home." My mother smiled as I walked in the door. "How was your day?"

I took off my shoes and put on my slipper then walked over and kissed my mother on the cheek. "I had a wonderful day mother. How was your's?"

My frail mother wrapped her arms around me. "Oh same as usually, it's only wonderful when you get home."

My smile dropped a little when I saw how pale my mother's face was. "Oh mother how much sleep did you get today?"

She smiled wearily. "You don't need to worry about me all time sweetheart. I got two hours today."

I smiled and rubbed her arms. "How about you get some rest and I take care of the house work."

"Alright." She smiled and walked to her room.

I got to work with the laundry and that gave me some time to think about everything Hiei had told me. He wanted us to create a team of demons and steal priceless Spirit world items which would mean not getting to see Kagome some days. So the only thing that is going thru my mine was Kagome, priceless treasures, Kagome, priceless treasures. Ugh, maybe I should just make mother some tea.

I made mother some green tea and gave it to her and told her to drink it all. What she didn't know was that I put some special demon sleeping herbs in the tea to help her to sleep. After she finished the tea she fell into a deep sleep. I pulled her blanket up over her further.

After folding and put up all our laundry I made a few roses for my mom and scattered them around the house so when she woke up in the morning every time she goes into a room she would find a new flower to make her smile. Then I studied for an hour and a half then went to bed myself.
