Blah Thoughts

A Heart to Heart

The next morning Kagome stood in her closet pondering what to wear. She finally decided on a black mid-thigh Chanel sweater-dress, a big silver belt around the middle, and black Christian Louboutin shoe boots. She sat down in front of the mirror and pulled her bangs back into a stylish bump and then pulled her long hair up into a hair ponytail. She then put in a pair of silver dangly earrings and a bit of sparkly lip gloss. Satisfied with her appearance she grabbed her purse and headed down stairs where Sota was waiting for her. He was wearing dark jeans that were distressed just right, black sneakers, and a gray polo.

"Jeez do you always have to get o dressed up for school?" He asked when she came down the stairs.

"What's the point of having fabulous clothes if I can't wear them whenever I want? Where's mama?" She asked.

"She went over to the Cullen's house. Her and Esme really hit it off yesterday." He said

"That's good. Mama hasn't had a real friend in so long. I think this change will turn out to be really good for all of us." Kagome said and Sota nodded. They got into Kagome's car and drove off to school.

"I wonder what school's going to be like today. You know…with Bella and Edward." Sota said and Kagome nodded gravely. They pulled into the parking lot next to Rosalie's red convertible and Emmett's jeep. Kagome looked around but didn't see Edwards Volvo anywhere.

"How's Edward doing?" Kagome asked Alice when she got out of her car.

"Not good. Jacob was at Bella's house when he got there. Edward told her that you saw her at the mall. He hasn't even been home yet. He's out running somewhere." She said with a sad look on her face. Kagome just shook her head solemnly.

Kagome stopped at her locker before her first class to put her purse away and grab the books she needed for that class when she felt Bella's aura coming right for her and she sighed.

"What do you want, Bella?" She asked before Bella could even announce her presence.

"You have been here for what, two days? And you can't even keep out of other peoples business? I had a good thing going. There was no need for Edward to find out about Jacob. This is all your fault!" Bella said furiously and Kagome rounded on her.

"I will advise you to watch who you're talking to. I may not have the thirst for human blood that a regular newborn has but don't think I won't make an exception for you. But I bet your blood would be disgusting. You even smell disgusting, a mix of human, vampire, and werewolf. I didn't tell Edward anything. He read Alice's mind after I told her. And if I had known that you were cheating on Edward I would have told him anyway. You were with Edward because he liked to buy you things but you were with Jacob because you like that he's human and he can grow old with you? Now I suggest you get out of my way. Right. Now." She said and brushed Bella away with a feather touch of her hand. Bella staggered back, "hmphed" furiously, flicked her hair, and stomped away. Kagome just shook her head and walked to class.

The rest of the day went by normally for the most part. Kagome had to send Bella a few warning glares at Bella when she felt the girl trying to send her evil looks. The day was finally over so Kagome and Sota said goodbye to their friends and got in the car and drove off.

"Ohh Sota I'm so excited!" Kagome said for the fourth time. She, Alice, and Rosalie planned to go shopping in Seattle the next day because it was Saturday. She hadn't had a real girl friend since she left the feudal era and now she had two!

"Yes I know you've said it multiple times." Sota said with a sigh and Kagome stuck her tongue out at him.

When they got home Kagome ran right upstairs and was determined to pick out the perfect outfit for shopping the next day. She started picking out outfit and putting them on her bed so she could view them. A couple hours later she ran out of room on her bed and started spreading them out on her desk, arm chair, and floor. She stood amidst a sea of outfits and still had no idea what to wear. She sighed again and looked out her window. It was already dark outside and she realized she was standing in her room in the dark. She went over to turn on her light but paused with her hand on the switch because she saw movement in the trees outside. She sniffed the air and felt for an aura and found Edward just outside. She turned on her light and walked out onto the balcony.

"Edward. I know you're out there. Why don't you come in?" Kagome asked and he was in front of her in a second. She smiled a little but was saddened by the look on his face. "Come on. Help me pick something out for tomorrow." She said leading him inside. His eyes widened at all the clothes everywhere.

She watched him as he took in her room slowly and his eyes stopped at a painting on the wall. It was one her mother just finished. It was a picture from when Kagome was a little girl. In the picture was Kagome, her brother as a baby, her mother, and a man that had raven hair and the same gray-blue eyes the young Kagome had. Her father.

"That's my dad. He died in a car accident a little after this was taken." She said.

"I'm sorry." Edward said with true sadness in his eyes. Kagome smiled gently at him.

"Thank you. But how are you doing?" She asked him and he just sighed. "I know how you feel, Edward. I've been cheated on before."

"Who would ever cheat on you?" He asked incredulously. So she told him the story. The whole story, feeling that he'd probably seen enough strange things to believe her. "I don't understand how you could just let him go to hell with her." He said and Kagome shrugged.

"It's what he wanted. I was hurt every single time he went off to see her and it hurt me to know he would never see me as more than a copy of her. But I was just grateful for the time I had with him, even If it was just as a friend. But before he went to hell with her we took a walk and he told me that I was the best friend he ever had. And that's when I knew that he did see me for me, and that he cared about me in a different way. That's what helped me let him go." Kagome finished with a sad smile.

"Have you ever found anyone else?" Edward asked curiously and Kagome just shook her head with that same sad smile. Edward looked at her for a long time before slowly bending over and picked up on of the outfits Kagome had on her bed. It consisted of a silver silk short sleeve top with a scoop neck, black jeans, a black jacket, and silver ballet flats. Kagome picked out this particular outfit because she liked the way it matched her eyes.

"I think you should wear this one." Edward said and Kagome nodded.

"You know…I was thinking the same thing." She said with a smile.

Hope you all liked this chapter!! A little Kag/Edward action huh?? ;)
