Somewhere there's speaking
It's already coming in
Oh and it's rising at the back of your mind
You never could get it
Unless you were fed it
Now you're here and you don't know why

But under skinned knees and the skid marks
Past the places where you used to learn
You howl and listen
Listen and wait for the
Echoes of angels who won't return

He's everything you want
He's everything you need
He's everything inside of you
That you wish you could be
He says all the right things
At exactly the right time
But he means nothing to you
And you don't know why

Chapter 2

Kagome woke from the peeking through the shades in her room. She sat up and rubbed her eyes. ' It's going to be a long day. ' kagome thought as she swung her feet over the bed and put on her slippers. She went into the bathroom to brush her teeth. She didn't dare to look into the miror. She didn't want to see her tear stained face. She didn't want to think of what happened the night before. " Pull yourself together Kagome. " Kagome said as she smacked herself. She went back to her room and put on a pair of blue jeans with a black tank top and matching black converse. She didn't bother to dress nice. Who was she trying to impress anyway?

Kagome went downstairs to find her brother Souta playing Tekken...again. " DIE! DIE I SAY! MUAHAHAHAHAHA! " Souta yelled as he madly pushed buttons on his controller. " You need help kid. " Kagome said as she walked in front of Souta in order to get to the kitchen. " HEY!!! Woman you don't get in the way when a man is playing video games! " Souta yelled as he continued to play. Kagome rolled her eyes. " That's alot to say for a boy that hasn't even been through puberty yet! " Kagome yelled back. Kagome found her mother in the kitchen as always making breakfast. Kagome's mother greeted her with a warm smile.

" Kagome dear back from the Feudal Era so soon? " she said with a smile. Kagome had to choke back a sob and faked a smile. " Yeah i decided to take a break. " Kagome replied. ' From someone who refuses to love me back. ' Kagome thought sadly. " Oh i see, would you like some breakfast? " kagome's mother said as she pointed to a stack of pancakes. Kagome didn't feel like eating, but if she didn't her mother would go crazy if she didn't. Kagome took the pancakes and pushed all of it down and left the house for a walk.

Back in the Feudal Era

Miroku crouched low behind a bush watching the scene before him. The half wit Inuyasha had been circling the well all day, he seemed to be deciding wether or not to go and get Kagome from the future. Miroku stiffled a laugh as Inuyasha seemed to go crazy and stomped off. " What are you doing Miroku? " a familiar voice asked. Miroku turned around to find emerad eyes looking at him. Miroku fell over in suprise and found both Sango and Shippou laughing at him. " That's not funny I'll have you know. " Miroku said as he got up and dusted himself. " Yeah your right. It was hilarious! " Sango said with a grin. " You looked like a scared little girl! " Shippou said with a mocking look.

" So is Inuyasha going to go get Kagome? " Sango asked. Miroku shrugged. " I don't know. He's been around the well all day but he won't seem to go and get her. " Miroku said. " Well gee I wonder why. " Shippou said sarcastically. " You think we should talk to him? " Sango asked. Miroku shook his head and said, " Lets let him figure it out. It's time that dimwit figured something out by himself. "

With Inuyasha

' Come on you idiot just go and get her back! How hard is that! ' Inuyasha thought as he stomped right back towards the well. But the moment he looked into the well and imagined Kagome's angry face he took a step back. ' I can't go to her. Not after what happened. ' Inuyasha thought sadly. He knew she was there. He could smell her tears, he could feel her sadness and anger. He couldn't go to her. He couldn't have her be angry at him. He knew that he screwed up. He knew that he had made a big mistake. But would Kagome forgive him?

" I don't know..." Inuyasha said to himself. There was only one way to find out. Inuyasha jumped into the well and then found himself in Kagome's Era.

With Kagome

Kagome walked down the streets of Tokyo. She didn't know where she was going. She didn't really seem to care where she was. She found herself stopping in front of a coffee shop named " Morning Star". ' I guess I could use the caffene. ' Kagome thought as she walked in. It was a small coffee shop but comfortable. Kagome sat down near the window and just put her head down. It wasn't long til a timid tap on her head made her sit up and look at whoever tapped her. Her eyes widened. " Inu- Inuyasha? " Kagome said dumbly. It wasn't him, but he sure did look like him. He was a boy around 17 years of age with long black hair and grey eyes ( i didn't feel like doing purple lol ) he also had silver highlights. He had a slim yet muscular build. " Um sorry I'm Zach can I take your order? " He said with a apologetic smile. ' Damn he looked hot when he smiled. ' Kagome thought. " I'll take normal black coffee and keep them coming. " Kagome said. " Wow, bad day huh? " Zach said with a smile. " You can say that. " Kagome replied. " Okay then black coffee coming right up. " Zach said as he wrote the order down on a note pad and went to get the coffee.

Zach returned a few minutes later with a pot of black coffee and a white mug. He poured the coffee up to the rim and served it to Kagome. Kagome thanked Zach and drank the coffee. Zach turned to go but was stopped by Kagome. " I'm sorry but will you sit with me? I don't want to be alone. " Kagome said as she looked at her cup of coffee. Zach shrugged and sat down in front of Kagome. " I hadn't taken my break yet anyway. " Zach said with another shrug. " I also don't know your name miss.. " Zach said uncertainly. " Oh wheres my manners I'm Kagome Higurashi. " Kagome said with a smile. " Zach Tyler. " Zach said with a salute. Kagome giggled at the salute. " Nice laugh. " Zach said with a smile. Kagome covered her mouth and blushed. " I meant that as a complement. " Zach said in a matter of fact tone.

Kagome couldn't help the blush that was coming to her cheeks. ' What am I doing? I love Inuyasha! But this guy...he looks like him but he the complete opposite of him. ' Kagome thought as she continued to stare at Zach. " Um are you okay? " Zach asked as he waved a hand in front of Kagome. Kagome snapped out of her dream like state. " Sorry I guess I've been having a rough day. " Kagome said apologetically. " What's wrong? " Zach asked as he leaned forward. " This guy I really like went to see his ex last night and I saw them hugging. And he knows how I feel when he does that. " Kagome as tears started to well up in her eyes. Zach shook his head and said, " Then he's a loser. If he can't see what an awesome girl he has then you should move on. Because your beautiful and you have a great laugh and if he can't see how great you are then you should leave his ass. " Zach said with a look of admiration in his eyes. ' And he even has his dirty mouth ' Kagome thought with a smile. " Thanks. I appreciate that. " Kagome said with a smile.

Zach looked at his watch and said, " Well I better get back to work but if you want you can wait for me and we could take a walk through the park near here. I get out in an hour. " Kagome nodded and said, " I would like that. " Zach only smiled and got up and went back to work.

At The Park

Kagome laughed as she heard Zach's many misadventures with the coffee machine. " I'm serious it started to go on a meltdown and it made a waterfall of coffee. And guess who had clean it up! ME! " Zach said with a laugh. " I feel so sorry for you. " Kagome said as she patted Zach's back. " Your just saying that to make me feel better. " Zach said with a pout. " Okay your right. " Kagome said. " Now that's just mean. " Zach said as he started to fake crying. " Aww poor Zach. " Kagome said with a giggle as she pat Zach's head. Zach then looked at Kagome mischeviously. " I shall take my revenge! " Zach said evilly. Kagome's eyes widened and she ran. Kagome ran as fast as she could but she ended up tripping and falling to the ground and was then tickled by Zach who positioned himself on top of her to pin her down. " Okay okay I give up! " Kagome said laughing. Zach stopped then said, " I win! "

Kagome laughed and then realzied the compromising position they were in. It was strange. She never felt like this before. She never felt the way she did with Inuyasha with any other guy. Inuyasha was perfect even with his flaws. But all he ever seemed to do was push her away. And now this boy comes along...she just didn't know anymore. She didn't realize Zach's face coming close to her own. When she did realize it she didn't protest. Zach's lips met hers in a simple, chaste kiss. He was about to pull away but Kagome pulled him back. Zach licked her lips for entrance and Kagome complied. She explored his mouth while he did hers.

Little did they know that they were being watched.

Inuyasha backed away from what he say. ' How..how could she? ' Inuyasha thought in despair. There she was, kissing a boy with such passion, such passion that made Inuyasha jealous and sad. ' Is this what she feels when she sees me with Kikyou? ' Inuyasha thought. Inuyasha couldn't bare to watch anymore and ran away.

Kagome then pulled herself away from Zach with a shocked look in her eyes. What was she doing? She barely knew this guy! " I'm sorry i shouldn't have done that. " Kagome hurredly as she got up. " What? " Zach said with a disgruntled look on his face. " I shouldn't have kissed you I'm so sorry.. " Kagome said with tears in her eyes. Before Zach could reply she ran away.

" What's going on? " Zach said as he layed there on the ground, alone.
