Are you leaving me?
(Kagome's POV)
I woke up extra early the next morning and made breakfast for all my friends in the past. It took me an hour but it was worth it, I wanted to show them that I still loved them.
I jumped down the well as fast as I could with a huge stack of food in my hands. Whenever I knew I was in the past I called out for someone to help me out of the big hole in the ground.
"Hello!" I called out. "It's Kagome. I brought food for all of you. Could you help me out?"
All of a sudden Inuyasha's head poked out above me.
"Food?" The half demon blinked.
"Yes, could you help me out?" I asked holding up the stack.
Inuyasha jumped down into the hole and scooped me up in his arms. Then he jumped strait into the air and a landed safely out of the well. He put me down and sniffed the air.
"I smell something good." Inuyasha smiled.
I handed him a box of pancakes and eggs. "I made some for all of you. I blinked and looked around. "Where is everyone?"
Inuyasha smiled. "The last I saw of them Miroku had just got slapped and Sango stormed off. I thing Miroku and Shippo are trying to get her back."
"Oh…" I sighed. "Well could you give them these?" I asked handing him all the boxes. "Please try not to eat them all. There called pancakes."
Inuyasha peeked in the box and breathed in the sweet aroma of syrup. This made a huge grin creek up his face. "Oh I'll try."
I smiled back then looked at the well. "I need to be going." I sighed. "I try to come tonight though."
He nodded and then lightly kissed me on the cheek. "Thank you Kagome."
I blushed and nodded then jumped down the well.
(Shuuichi's POV)
Before I left for school I made sure mother was alright and comfortable then Hiei picked me up to walk me to school.
"Oh is this one of your friends, Shuuichi?" My mother asked me as Hiei waited in the doorway while I ran up to my room for a book.
"Um yes." I said. I really wasn't planning on my mother ever finding out about Hiei but I guess there is no changing it now. "Mother this is Hiei. Hiei this is my mother, Minamino Shiori."
"Hn." Hiei nodded then looked back at me. "We should be going."
I nodded then turned to face my mother. "Please call me if you need anything mother. I am only a phone call away."
She smiled weakly and nodded. "Thank you son but I think I'll be alright."
I nodded then turned back to my short friend and we walked out the door.
"It was nice to meet you Hiei." My mother called out after us. "Stop by anytime."
Hiei kept his eyes fixed to the ground and acted like he didn't hear a thing.
Finally when the house was out of view Hiei looked up at me.
"You know fox, you really shouldn't be growing too attached to humans. You're just going to leave them anyways so why even try? I know you're not going to abandon our mission."
"Hiei…" I sighed trying to dog the mission topic. "She's sick and I know that you don't understand but I can't just abandon her."
"Hn." Hiei looked strait ahead. "Sometime I don't believe you were ever a demon."
(Kagome's POV)
I made it to school just on time to see Shuuichi and he asked me to meet him after school because he had something urgent to tell me.
"What is it?" I had asked him.
"I can't say here." He sighed. "But meet me after school and hopefully then I can tell."
So all day during school I was counting the minutes and second hand inched its way around the clock, at one time I thought it jumped backward. The whole day felt like day giant clock kicking me around with its huge second hand.
Aster school my friends caught up with me before I could exit the class room. I didn't know what I could do but I saw Shuuichi walk out of the class room staring at me.
"Kagome," My short haired friend snapped me out of my stair at Shuuichi. "Did you even hear what we just said?"
"Um…"
"We said that Hojo has a new girl." My other friend cut in front.
"Well they haven't dated yet but she's been looking at him and I've heard that he been looking at her."
I stood there in duh as my three friends dished it out on what they had heard about Hojo and what we could do about it and on and on. The only thing that was on my mind was getting to Shuuichi and findout what his urgent news was.
Could it be that he doesn't like me anymore? Or that he was moving away with his mother? Maybe I'm just being too paranoid over something stupid and maybe it was really something good. What if Shuuichi wanted me to marry him? What am I thinking we are both to young, well at least I am I never really caught his true age.
After ten minutes of none stop rambling from my friends I found my way to slip out and ran for it. I skidded down the halls and then out the doors of the school. Home free!
I saw Shuuichi leaning against a wall reading a book. I leaning up against the wall beside him and read the title of the book and realized it was a romance novel that I had never seen before.
He looked up from his book in a flash and smiled.
I smiled back. "So… what's the urgent news?" I asked.
His smile fell and he lead me to the school courtyard where hundreds of colorful flowers surrounded us. We sat down on a bench and I was afraid by the look in Shuuichi's eyes that I wasn't going to be hearing good news today.
"Kagome, you know I love you don't you?" He asked.
I nodded my head slowly awaiting the bad news.
"And you know that I would never wish to hurt you. But I'm afraid what I'm about to tell you is going to hurt the both of us."
Oh no, he isn't planning on braking up with me is he?
(Shuuichi's POV)
I didn't want to hurt Kagome but I had to tell her what was going on before she bursts.
"Hiei has come up with a team and I have decided to join."
Kagome looked down for a minute before I spoke again.
"Now that just means that we wouldn't be able to see each other as often." I told her. "But it's not like I'm going away for a whole week."
She looked up and a tear was rolling down her cheek. She was smiling weakly but I knew it was a fake and that she was trying hard not to cry any harder. Then she nodded and walked off.
Hiei jumped down from the tree that was right above me and smiled. "I told you you'd be leavening them in the end."
I stood up. "I'm not leaving her. We will still see each other at school and I will still take her on dates." I looked strait down at him and glared. "And you are not going to say anything about it."
Hiei rolled his eyes as the red head boy walked in front of him. Somehow he knew he would never be able to separate the two love birds.
