Diclaimer: Inuyasha.

Chapter 5

Kagome opened her eyes to a bright light that happened to be the sun. She shielded her eyes with her arm and groaned from the ache she felt in her neck. She sat up and rubbed the pain with one hand while she leaned on another one.

"Damn what happened?" She asked herself rembering the scene that happened in her head.

"Oh ya… I was bitten and passed out. Great." She stated with as sarcastic tone. She got up and stretched her back and arms, then she walked around the forest until she found a small clear water stream. She looked at her reflection and did a double take at the wound that was at her neck.

"WHAT THE FUCK!" She screamed out. She touched the wound with wide eyes, and flinched at how much it hurt.

"Ah! God damn bitch! This should have healed by now! Why is it still here?" She couldn't remove her gaze from the crimson crescent mark from the person who bit her last night. She stared at it like a person would stare at a messed up painting or drawing.

She finally tore her eyes away from her reflection in the water, stood up, and ran away to find Sango and Ayame. When she got to their hut she found both of her friends passed out on the floor on their futons. Ayame had a bit of drool coming out of the corner of her mouth that made Kagome sweat drop and Sango snored like a dying horse which made Kagome just feel ashamed of her friends.

"WAKE UP!" She yelled at them grabbing both of their futons, and slipping them out from under them causing them to roll onto their stomachs. They squealed and glared at Kagome who just gave them an evil smirk.

"Mornin' ladies," She mused. Both girls mumbled curses and revenge before getting up and groaning.

"I was having such a good dream too… Me and Kaito were getting married and were about to share such a blissful kiss of love—" Kagome interrupted Ayame before she had to run and find someone to throw up on.

"Blah, blah, blah! Don't give a care. LOOOOK!" She said like a child showing their mother a toy they want. Kagome pointed to her bite mark and Sango and Ayame's eyes popped out of their head.

"WHAT THE HELL!" They roared in unison.

"Ya, I know right, that's the exact reaction I had when I saw it!" Sango stared at Kagome with a questioning look.

"Shouldn't it have healed?" She asked.

"Healed? Oh ya, I almost forgot you guys were vampires! Ha, ha… silly me…" Ayame sweat dropped at herself and zoned out.

Kagome looked at her red- headed friend and also sweat dropped, then she shook her head and shrugged at Sango's question.

"I don't why it hasn't healed, when the guy bit me it felt like I was being electrocuted!" A shiver went down Kagome's spine from just thinking about it. Sango gave Kagome a weird look that she couldn't quite put her finger on.

"And did this feeling feel good…? Or bad?" Kagome shrugged at her and looked around.

"I can't describe it… I just know that it felt… ecstatic!" A smile brightened up her face, but she still didn't look at Sango. Kagome thought back to the feeling once again but this time she ignored the weird spine tingling feeling. Her smile grew even larger—if possible—and she wished she could feel it again. She wish she could feel like there was nothing but her in the world once again. She could do anything, just her, free to live life without any regrets, just pure happiness.

"Kagome? Kagome?" She snapped back to reality to see Ayame snapping her fingers in her face.

"What?" She said dumbfounded. Ayame and Sango just looked at her with idiotic grins glazing their faces.

"YOU FOUND YOUR SOULMATE!" They screamed before tackling Kagome to the ground. Kagome quickly recovered from their surprising action and answered confused.

"My what?" She asked even more dumbfounded.

"Bah you dense girl! Your soulmate! The one person that your truly meant to be with, IN LOVE WITH! The person you want to be with for the rest of your LIFE!" Ayame screamed into her ears making her cringe.

"You do realise how long my LIFE would be? To be with one guy for that long would be amazing but I don't believe it." Kagome said yelling out the word life. Her friends gave her another weird look and Kagome thought that they did that way too often. She wondered why…

"Baka," Ayame started.

"Dense baka," Sango concluded. Kagome puffed her cheeks at them, then she got up leaving the on the floor before dusting herself off.

"Hmph! Fine! Be that way! I'm going to go get me some ramen!" She huffed in a childish way before leaving. Well, that was until she ran back into the hut to grab her cloak.

"He, he… just getting something to cover up my neck… but once again! I am going to get me some ramen! ADIEU!" Sango and Ayame sweat dropped at their raven haired companion, then they both sighed.

"Gosh, she is so childish…" Sango said crossing her arms and closing her eyes.

"So… you wanna go get some curry?" Ayame asked her. Sango cracked one eye open and burst.

"God Ayame! That should NOT be a question! Of course I want some freaking curry! I'm starving! Let's go." Ayame sweat dropped again before shaking her.

"Jeesh, no need to PMS on me, I was just askin'!" Ayame replied before she realized that Sango had already left. She sighed and went out to find her.

"Jeesh, she couldn't even wait for me…?"

~KAGOME POV~

I sighed as I sat down on a stool in some restaurant . I ordered some ramen for myself and rested my head in between my palms waiting for my food to finish. I had the hood of my cloak up so that it had covered my ugly looking neck, I mean seriously, it looked like I was beaten and tormented only on the neck. There was an ugly bruise that was a mess of purple and black and the actual part where vamp guys teeth broke my skin was staring to scab up and it was stained with some dry blood. Ya, not really a pretty sight… Man, just thinking bout the stupid bite made my neck start to ache. I wanted to rub it but I had a feeling it would just feel like hell a lot more than it already did so I just tried my best and ignored it, though I'm not sayin it was easy. It HURRRTTSSSS! I closed my eyes for a moment until something delicious smelling filled up my nose.

"Here's your food," I heard someone say. I opened my eyes and almost started drooling… Ok so I did drool a litttlleee, but can you blame me? It smelt and LOOKED so good!

"You know you look like a real idiot when you drool," a familiar male voice said from beside me. I jumped in surprise and my stool stumbled to the ground bringing me down with it.

"YIPE!" I squealed and landed hard on my butt.

"I-Itai…" I whispered rubbing my sore bottom. I looked up to see a certain silver headed guy staring at me with side eyes. It didn't take me long to register exactly what he was staring at after I felt a sudden breeze go through my hair.

My hood had fallen off my head and he was staring at my neck.

"Well fuck…" I mumbled under my breath.

OMG sorry I haven't updated in soooo long! Truth is that on my old laptop I can't log on my user any more so I couldn't get any of my files, including the chapter I was workin on for this story, so I had to rewrite everything on my net book… ya well enough of my excuses.

You know the drill.
