Chapter 4

Inuyasha's P.O.V.

I left the cafeteria thinking something bad was about to happen. Don't ask me how or why I felt like that 'cause I seriously have no clue. I just got this gut feeling – bad as hell – giving me the jitters. I didn't like it at all so I thought leaving the place for a walk around the campus would be better.

As soon as I opened the door, I almost bumped into someone, although this time, I was able to avoid it thanks to my demon senses. It was a good thing I did since that person was carrying a huge pile of papers in their arms.

And I swear this chick was someone that could pass as Kagome's twin.

Her black hair was pin straight with even bangs across her forehead unlike Kagome's slightly wavy, thick hair. Her eyes were the same colour but this girl's seemed cold and cruel. Her skin was pale as moonlight and completely flawless.

Another Kagome?

No…not the same girl.

Stunned, I couldn't even move as the girl dropped her shocked expression to a flirty one. It wasn't as obvious as those other girls in my homeroom class this morning but the way she did it made my heart speed up. Like I had no control over it.

But she didn't say anything to me. She just winked at me and walked straight past me into the cafeteria. I watched her disappear behind the closing door.

I was just about to turn away when I hear the sound of paper being thrown into the air. Laughing was heard all over too. The place had gotten hysterically chaotic.

Confused, I didn't even have time to walk back in when Kagome came running out of the cafeteria, pushing past me roughly.

Mumbling curses at the girl I was about to yell after her to find out what the hell was her problem when my nose caught the smell of salt water in Kagome's lingering scent. Only then did I realise that her hands were over her face.

"Kagome what happened?" I yelled after her. She just kept running.

Then I did the only thing I could: I ran after her.

We kept running 'till we ended up in the school garden. She wouldn't stop no matter how many times I yelled her name.

Kagome stopped and collapsed onto a bench, sobbing her eyes out. Her body heaved with sadness. Even my chest was feeling tight from watching her. This definitely wasn't the same girl I threw insults at this morning.

"Why does it always have to be me they embarrass?" I heard Kagome mumbling into her hands.

I walked up to her and sat down beside her. "Kagome what happened? Why are you crying?"

She just sat there, and continued to hiccup. At least she wasn't bawling her eyes out. But I started getting annoyed more then worried because she didn't answer any of the questions I was asking.

"Kagome would you answer my damn question already? What happened?"

This time she answered. "Well since you really want to know, I'm having the best day of my life!"

What?

…Oh…that was sarcasm.

Huge sarcasm.

My anger vanished and turned back to worry, though, at her tone of voice.

"Okay….but that didn't answer my question. What happened back there?" I asked.

"Why do you need to know? It's not like you're going to make things any better!" Kagome lashed out at me, facing me with her ferocious eyes. Her cheeks reflected off some sunlight from her tears.

"Well don't get all sore on me! I just wanted to ask if you were alright! Can't I find out what happened?" I yelled back. Man, this girl has attitude problems.

"My life's just peachy, thank you!" Kagome spat at me, her voice cracking. She was obviously miserable. Fresh tears spilled out as she turned her face away.

After some time of silence, she turned back to face me. She opened her mouth say something but just then, the bell rang.

Kagome closed her mouth, stood up and turned her back from me. "Just stay out of it, Inuyasha. You can't do anything, anyways, so what's the point," she grumbled.

I couldn't help but feel the sting of those words reach a part of me that I didn't even know I had.

And it hurt like hell.

Kagome ran to her next class without another word, wiping her tears with her arms as quick as possible.

'What's with me?' I thought. 'Why do I even care what happens to her?' I watched her hair fly in the wind.

But I couldn't ignore that ache in my chest from her words. Why did they affect me so much?

Pulling at my hair with one hand, I sighed and walked back into school.

I didn't talk to Kagome for the rest of the day.

And that definatelyhurt.

Oh la la, what's going to happen next?
