"What. The. Fuck." Inuyasha was irritated to the point were he was getting a headache. '"I can't find that bitch anywhere!"

"Well I wouldn't be surprised if she went home, you we being a real dick to her, Inuyasha." Sango scolded. "Miroku, wanna hang out at me and Kagome's place? There's beer and everything."

"Sure, sounds cool. What about you Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha snorted. "Its whatever."

They walked back to Sango's apartment as it was getting dark. The cool breeze felt like it was still summer time. Inuyasha loved summer time. Especially at the beach. He would go with 'her' every summer. Kikyo was her name. Inuyasha loved her more than anything in the world. He met her on the poor side of town where he lived and still does. He thought she was beautiful, and she could relate to Inuyasha because she was poor too. But she deceived him. She knew that Inuyasha's big brother had a big stash of drugs and money hidden in his house. Once she knew where it was, Kikyo and her gang leader, Naraku stole it. And attempted to kill Inuyasha and his brother. But they escaped. Inuyasha and his older brothers parents, weren't so lucky.

"Here it is!" Sango exclaimed

Inuyasha stood in awe. It was an expensive apartment on the 'Better' side of town. He was almost jealous.

How the fuck do you and Kagome afford THIS?"

"My mother passed away from cancer, and my dad pays for it. Pretty bad ass if I do say so, myself." Sango boasted.

Miroku smiled at Sango's proudness. "Its wonderful."

They entered the apartment to see Kagome in a sweatshirt and booty shorts on top of the table playing a singing game on the new WII.

"Get ready, get ready mother fuckers cause I'm on the scene!

I don't have to try

To make you realize

Anything I wanna do

Anything I wanna do to you,

I don't have to -"

Kagome saw that Sango and the boys had barged in on her fun. She Blushed a little.

"Whore, you could have knocked first." Kagome teased.

"Haha, well I just couldn't miss out on you singing Avril Lavgne!" Sango teased back and laughed loudly.

"Well glad you liked the show. - What are you guys doing here?" Kagome looked awkwardly at Inuyasha.

"Sango-Chan invited us over." Miroku smiled.

"Well, I'm happy you came."

Inuyasha looked at the ground and fidgeted with his shirt, nervously.

Kagome could tell he had regretted what he had said to her before. She smiled. "Want some beer? I'll make dinner too. Sango can help."

"That would be nice." Inuyasha smiled at Kagome. "Thanks." He thought if he was a little nice to Kagome, she'd forgive him, and all in all he wanted Kagome to like him as much as he did her. But he, of course, refused to show any feelings towards her.

Kagome smiled warmly at Inuyasha, and Inuyasha blushed wildly. Kagome walked into the kitchen and started making steak with a side of mash potatoes and green beans.

It took 30 minutes or so. And Miroku and Inuyasha had taken a liking to the WII. They were singing 50 cent and Jay-z rap songs, although they weren't any good. Sango and Kagome stood in the kitchen giggling and watching their boys make themselves look like idiots.

"Hey guys, dinner's ready."

Inuyasha and Miroku rushed to the dinner table like hungry four year olds and blobbed down in their chairs.

"Oh, steak? Hell yeah I'm starving!" Inuyasha scarffed down Kagome's food. "You're a good cook, Kagome."

"Thanks, Inuyasha." She blushed. She wasn't so scared to talk to him. After all, he was being sweet. So he mustn't be THAT mean, she thought.

It was past midnight and Sango and Miroku had gone to bed, Inuyasha did too… at lest that was what Kagome thought. Kagome was wide awake. She sat out on the balcony gazing at the millions of stars in the sky. The dark night sky was beautiful, Kagome wished her family could see it.

"Mama…Souta… you'd love to see this. Its so pretty." She whispered.

"Are you talking to yourself?" Inuyasha was standing very close behind Kagome.

"Gah!" She gasped and hit the floor. 'Damnnit, don't sneak up on me like that, idiot."

"Well you were talking to yourself, and it was pretty weird. Are you mentally ill or something?" Inuyasha joked and laughed to himself a little. Kagome gave him a cold look.

"Fuck off. I wasn't talking to myself, and no I don't have a mental disorder, thanks."

"Then who were you talking to?"

"My family.." Kagome's eyes water a little. Her wanted to control her feelings but she was no pro at that. She stared at the ground trying not to cry. "Leave me alone." She ordered Inuyasha.

"Not that its any of my business, but if you don't mind me asking.."

"Which your going to anyway, dumb shit."

"Hey shaddup, I was just wondering wha-"

"What happened to my family."

Inuyasha stopped. Its like she was reading his mind. For once someone could do that. He was in awe. But he had felt bad for asking. Since something bad probably happened to them, he figured.

"I don't like talking about it." Kagome looked at him with sad eyes.

"You don't have to."

"I feel good talking to you for some reason. So you can know. I'll tell you."

Inuyasha blushed madly. "Okay…"

"I was fourteen years old. Pretty happy kid. My father had left me, my mother, and my young brother to deal with the pains of life. I thought he was a bastard. And to this day he still is. Anyway, I had tucked my brother into bed that night, funny how that would be the last time I talked to him, and I didn't say I loved him. I regret that. I had gone to my room and almost went to sleep but I heard a loud banging against our front door. The men kicked down the door and rushed in. There were four of them. Two took care of my mother the others went up stairs to get my brother. The brought them both down stairs and I hid in a closet. What a coward I was. I saw them being stabbed. My brother, stabbed four times, left a knife in his head. My mother, I don't know how many times, but she suffered greatly." Tears shed from Kagome's eyes as she continued to think about it.

Inuyasha's heart hurt for Kagome. And he began to fall in love with her.

"I got out alive with one stab wound to my arm. People say I'm lucky…. I say I should have died."

"Kagome…" Inuyasha whispered.

Kagome's tears left her face "Well, now you know." She turned her back to him and stared at the sky.

"They would have loved to see this."

"My parents were killed too." Inuyasha admitted

Kagome gave him a puzzled stare.

"I'm sorry to hear that."

"Yeah my girlfriend that I had a while back was the one that lead the kill. And I was so blinded by the love I had developed for her. Gang members came into my home. Took everything. And the two people behind it? Ex girlfriend Kikyo and Gang leader, Naraku."

Kagome was dumbfounded. "What? Naraku? Are you serious?!"

"Dead serious."

"He murdered MY family as well, Inuyasha. I cant believe that. I hate that man. More than anything. Because of him, I don't trust anybody and I-I-I.."

Her words drifted and she clenched her fists. Revealing the many cuts on her wrists. Inuyasha was shocked. He grabbed Kagome's hand and kissed her wrists. Kagome was too upset and angry to blush at Inuyasha's kindness. But she could feel her stomach tie up in knots.

"Kagome.." he whispered. "Why would you do this? Are you hurting that much? Are you in that much pain?"

Tears poured down Kagome's face and she clenched her teeth together. She didn't want to say it. Her guard was being let down. She didn't want anyone to touch her heart. To help lift her sadness. She didn't want him to hurt her. But she needed him. She needed him to guide her.

"Kagome..?" Inuyasha asked again as his face was uncomfortably close to hers. Her heart was in so much pain. She couldn't take it.

"YES!" Kagome cried out and landed into Inuyasha's arms. Her tears stained his red t-shirt. He held her back. He held her as tight as he could.

Kagome, he thought. Its okay, to let people into your heart. Its really okay.

Everything went back to normal again. Kagome went to her room, and Inuyasha slept in the floor. Kagome felt at peace that night. And she knew why. Because she could trust somebody, somebody to talk to. To open her heart to. To help forget - No. Not forget, but cope with what had happened. She was happy, for the first time in three years.

It came around noon, and Kagome had woken up. She stretched her arms out wide and yawned. She hadn't slept that good in ages. No nightmares? She thought. Wow, this feels great! She smiled with delight.

Kagome trotted into her kitchen, to see her friends all awake - watching that new documentary about that Spears girl. Weirdos. Kagome thought happily. She giggled, which made them acknowledge her presence.

"Well, good morning." Miroku smiled.

"Good morning everyone!" Kagome's cheerfulness was unusual, but Miroku and Sango thought it was good, that she was happy for once. And they knew why.

Kagome looked at Inuyasha and smiled eagerly. "Good morning, Inuyasha."

"Mornin'." His voice was indifferent and monotone. Kagome stared at him and tilted her head a bit. She was puzzled at why he wasn't being as nice to her as he was last night.

"Hey, Kagome. Lets go shopping!" Sango clapped her hands together. "We haven't been in forever, and we need new clothes, don't you think?"

"Yeah, sounds like fun. Lets go get ready."

Kagome and Sango excitedly ran into their rooms. Miroku and Inuyasha looked at each other. They were thinking the exact same thing, What the hell is up with girls and shopping together?

"Well, Inuyasha. I guess we'll hang out here for today. I'll order pizza or something tonight."

"Is there any more beer?" Inuyasha asked.

"Nah, we drank it all after beer pong last night."

"Damn."

Miroku looked at Inuyasha slyly. He knew what Kagome and Inuyasha were talking about last night. Since he wasn't really sleeping, being he eavesdropper he is.

"So, you and Kagome 'talked' last night, huh?"

Inuyasha's eyes widened. "Well.. It wasn't like THAT. It was just a little talk about the past. Not anything big, really."

"A little talk, Inuyasha? Really?" There was a sound of frustration and anger in Miroku's voice. "Kagome has been through so much. She cuts herself, she can't sleep most nights, she's so hurt. And all you can think about is how embarrassed YOU are about your feelings. How selfish." Miroku got off the couch in his fit of anger and slammed the door behind him.

Inuyasha put his face in his hands and sighed. "Its not like that at all, Miroku."

"Ahh, it feels so good outside!" Kagome stretched her arms out and sighed.

"Well, I imagine! We haven't been shopping in forever!" Sango put her arm around Kagome. "A girls day out, its nice not to have boys around."

"Sango, I've got something to tell you." Kagome smiled

"You and Inuyasha had a good talk last night?" Sango smiled at Kagome which made her angry because she knew Sango and Miroku had been spying.

"Ugh, next time I had something secret happen to me, I've got to go five hundred miles away, just so you don't eavesdrop!" Kagome yelled.

Sango just laughed at Kagome's anger. "I'm glad your happy, really Kagome."

Kagome's anger faded. She couldn't be mad at Sango, who had been there for her ever since the incident, her best friend.

"Thank you, Sango." Kagome could feel herself tearing up. "You know, its okay to let people in. And let them know how you feel, I've realized."

Sango smiled. "I know."
