A/N: Ok so this is the second part to the prompt 'Shy'…

"You really…?" Kagome sunk lower in her seat at the local diner, rolling her eyes at her friend who grinned from ear to ear next to her. "How could you Sango!" Kagome wailed, looking from her friend in shock to the guys outside who were making their way inside.

"I know you really like him…"

"It's bad enough I made a fool of myself this morning!" She groaned, thinking back to when she literally snatched her book out of his hands, not even giving him a proper thank you. How could she even speak when the most popular guy in the whole school actually spoke to her, called her cute instead of insulting her?

Kagome wasn't fat, she was just chubby in some eyes, with big boobs and ass that wasn't for a girl of her age, she'd always say. Even though Sango told her countless times that she was beautiful, she still had a hard time believing it most times.

"Is this about you thinking you're fat?" Sango rolled her eyes at friend. "You're hot!" She admitted, wishing she had the voluptuous shape Kagome had. Narrow waist and sexy curve to accentuate any man's desire? Why would Kagome see that as her downfall?

"Forget it." Kagome whispered, grabbing her stuff hurriedly as she made a dash for the back entrance while ignoring Sango's call.

Exhaling the breath she was holding loudly, she pressed a hand against her chest, bowing her head down before walking off, thankful that Inuyasha hadn't seen her in time.

"You were going to stand me up?" She heard a voice whispered.

Jumping at the voice that broke the silence, Kagome looked around hesitantly; knowing who the voice belonged to instantly. She found herself catching flies with her mouth as she looked at Inuyasha, hypnotized by the setting sun's orange hue kissing his tanned skin softly.

When he smiled toothily at her, she thought she would have fainted from the look in his eyes, wondering who the hell made him. "I'm Inu –…"

"I know who you are." She mumbled, still hypnotized by his appearance. "You are so beautiful." She gasped loudly. "Did I say that out loud?"

Inuyasha blushed, chuckling softly with a turn of his head. "Thank you Kagome."

"You know my name…" She mumbled, biting her bottom lips to stop herself from grinning widely. "Um...I have…to go."
