Yawn... Sprry that it's been so long. Been dealing with stuff and even while writting this chapter I was sick, so I hope it's not too bad.

Don't Trust First Appearances

Chapter Four

Kagome awoken in Shippo's mansion. She was living again with him for a few weeks before she was allowed home.

It was Saturday morning, so she had no school. Today, she would be going to an amusement park with Haruhi. Actually they were going to one of Shippo's newest amusement parks. It had to be good since she knew the fox's life centers around fun and candy.

As Kagome was eating her breakfast, Shippo came charging into the room with a pleading look on his face. "Please! Please! Please Kagome can I come?"

Kagome sighed. "I understand you want to meet Haruhi in person and all, but you have a load of work to do mister. If I let you come you'll never do it. But if you'd like, you can come for the ride." Kagome gave into her cute little fox kit, even if he wasn't a kit anymore, and was allowing him to come for the ride. She was being serious. Shippo had been pushing back his work lately with Kagome around, and he needed to catch up.

"Yay!" Shippo glomped Kagome as she was trying to swallow her food. Her eyes widened. She looked like she was going to choke. "Thanks a bunch!" After a moment she did begin to choke. She spit out the food she was chewing and began to cough into hysterics. "AH! Gomen nasai!"

Kagome steadied her breathing before responding, "It's alright. You didn't mean it." The miko in disguise was no longer hungry. Almost choking to her death made her lose her hunger.

Kagome was sitting in the back of the limousine with Shippo wearing black pants and a loose light blue t-shirt.

They stopped outside Haruhi's home. Haruhi sighed at the sight of the limo, but she wasn't all that surprised. Her short hair was down as it normally was, but she had a star clip in her hair. She wore a red and white striped shirt and a black pleated skirt. On her feet she wore red flats.

Haruhi got into the vehicle and notice the two other figures. One person she expected, Kagome, and there was someone she didn't know. He had orange-auburn hair that reminded her of the twins and vibrant green eyes. He only reminded her of her two male classmates more with the mischief twinkle in his eyes.

"You must be Haruhi Fujioka!" Haruhi blinked. He now reminded her of Tamaki. They were both eccentric. "I'm Shippo Akitsune!" Haruhi couldn't believe what she was hearing. The man in front of her was the owner of a large business. What was the word becoming?

Haruhi listened to Kagome as he began to speak to her. "I've known him for a long time, Haruhi. Don't worry. He may be full of energy and act like a kid, but he's a good person. I just wouldn't stand in his way when it comes to candy."

Haruhi's mind was spinning. It was like she could find strong characteristics of half of the Host Club in one guy. She was scared of what would happen if any of the academy students met him.

Kagome complimented, "Cute outfit Haruhi-chan."

In Shippo's head, he was on the floor laughing as he watched the sight. A small blush appeared on Haruhi's face, yet Kagome seemed oblivious to everything. He wondered how long that had been happening but kept his thoughts to himself. He was looking forward to how things would play out. After all he was a kitsune. They were known to to be mischievous.

Haruhi stuttered, "Arigato." She looked over to Shippo. "Are you coming with us?"

His eyes suddenly got teary which surprised her. "I want to but Kagome won't let me!" Tears streamed down his face.

"You're falling behind in your work. Besides Shippo. You own the place. You can go whenever you want."

Shippo nervously chuckled. "Aha right..." He was rubbing the back of his head.

Else where Tamaki was uniting all of the Hosts to spy on Haruhi and Kagome. They were all gathered in his limo and they were all on their way to the amusement park they were suppose to be going to.

Once they arrived they saw the two enter together laughing.

"They're there tono," stated Hikaru. He pointed towards the two.

"They're escaping from view," finished Kaoru. He took his spot next to his brother.

Tamaki was gapping at the sight before tears started to stream down from his eyes. "That's it! Commence follow Haruhi and the new host begins now."

Mitsukuni tilted his head cutely. "Ne? You mean stalk?"

"IT'S NOT STALKING!" Tamaki arms were in the air being his dramatic self. Kyoya decided to ignore his friend's outburst.

They all paid and entered the amusement park. They began to follow the two. Tamaki bit his cloth as to not scream.

Kagome and Haruhi were walking through the amusement park. "So what would you like to do first Haruhi?"

"I don't really care. I just want to have a good day." They stopped walking. "How about that?" Haruhi pointed at some spinning cups.

Kagome grinned. "You sure you can handle it? Alright." Kagome loved to spin the cups as fast as she could. Haruhi had no idea what she just got herself in.

As the ride began they were whipping around in circles. "AH! Kagome-kun!" Kagome could only laugh in response. Once they got off the ride, the brunette was very, very, very, dizzy. She couldn't walk straight.

Kagome was trying to go through the day without saying anything about their followers, however, she was beginning to be agitated. Haruhi was just saying something about lunch when he turned around to where the rest of the Host Club was. "I've had it! Instead of stalking us why don't you just come out."

Honey looked at Tamaki with a large grin. He said innocently, too innocently, "See~ I told you it was stalking."

Kagome sighed. "Well seeing that you all are already here would you like to join us?" Kagome didn't really know them that well, but if she had to decide between being stalked or inviting them, she would choose inviting them. She could always fight them, but that would cause a scene.

Haruhi had mixed emotions on the subject. In the end, she settled for sighing at the Host Club's antics.

The long day continued on for them now that the entire Host Club was assembled. They did a few things all together then they would split because Tamaki and the twins dragged Haruhi off somewhere.

"Haruhi?" Kagome had a raised eyebrow where she had last seen her brunette friend. "Where did she go?"

Mitsukuni pulled on her shirt sleeve. "Tama-chan, Kao-chan, and Hika-chan dragged Haru-chan somewhere. Don't worry! They'll be fine."

"I figured this would have happened. They just better not do anything to her." Malice was rolling off Kagome in waves for a minute before it all disappeared in replacement for a smile. She looked back to Mori, Honey, and Kyoya, the only ones left. "So what would you all like to do?"

Honey grabbed Kagome's hand and led her to a rollercoaster. "Let's go on that Kago-chan!" Kagome was being dragged towards the rollercoaster while Mori and Kyoya stayed behind. They both had already been on several rides and decided they were done.

The line was short, so Mitsukuni and Kagome got on right away. They got to sit in the front seat. The rollercoaster was slowly making its way up the rails before dropping at an amazingly fast speed. Instead of yelling like so many others on the ride were doing, Kagome was full-heatedly laughing.

This action made the blond look at her. She just kept laughing enjoying herself. She loved going fast. It reminded her of the Feudal Era when she would ride in Inuyasha's back. Honey's soften questionly as he glanced at Kagome, however, she didn't notice his stare.

After going on a few more rides with Mitsukuni, they met up with the others. They were finally all together again. They all wanted to ride the Ferris Wheel. Hikaru, Tamaki, and Kaoru were extremely jealous when Haruhi and Kagome went in one by themselves because they all couldn't fit into one.

It was silent as the two sat across from each other. Kagome stared out to the sea that could be seen as the sun was setting. She was deep in thought.

Haruhi just sat awkwardly in silence.

"Ne, Haruhi-chan?" Kagome caught Haruhi's attention.

"H-hai! What is it Kagome-kun?" The two were now looking at each other.

"What do you think of me," asked the miko. Haruhi swore that her heart stopped. "You see... I don't understand love very well. There are so many forms. Not only love of a lover, but love of a sibling, a friend, a best friend, a hero, a saviour, and so on. I'm not very good at sorting my feelings"

Haruhi stared wide-eyed. She thought, "Different kinds of love?"

"I love you Haruhi. I love you as a best friend or a younger sister. I've always wanted one. Which is why I feel bad for keeping my secret from you."

"A secret?"

"Yes Haruhi, a secret. It's one only a handful of people know, so I'll make you a deal. You remind a lot of when I was your age. At least when it come to handling emotions. When you can tell me what I am to you I promise to tell you." The ride came to a stop and the worker opened the door. Kagome stood up. "I'll be looking forward to your answer." Kagome left.

Haruhi stared where she last saw him. She thought, "Sort my feelings- Secret- Like me?" Once she exited the ride she was brought close to a melodramatic Tamaki.

*One Week Later*

Kagome was back at her family's shrine. As much as she hated constantly changing house to house, it felt nice to return home to her family. Unfortunately she had to be in disguise while living with her family.

Kagome was sitting around doing her homework until she heard her brother yell, "Kagome! Someone's here to see you!"

Kagome was confused at first but understood when she saw Haruhi. "Ohayo Haruhi. Would you like something to drink?"

"Ah it's fine senpai." Kagome, who was ready to get up, sat back down. "Actually I came to talk to you about what you said."

Kagome smiled. "Continue. I'm listening."

"I thought about it long and hard. When I thought of it my thoughts and emotions changed a lot. Now I understand why you said that love can be confusing. You see I narrowed down my options by not thinking of the possibilities. Now that I think of it you are my saviour. My affections for you have grown from you saving me that day. However, as time went by I can honestly say that you mean more to me than just someone who saved me. I consider you a friend. I would like to become better friends in the future. I realized after all this time that I have known you, I don't actually know all that much about you."

Kagome patted Haruhi's head. The brunette looked up, but she just looked confused. This time she didn't blush as she had now sorted out all her feelings. "I'm glad you are beginning to understand." Kagome stood up. "Now it is my turn to fulfill my end of the bargain. To tell you my secret."

Haruhi responded, "You don't need to tell me."

Kagome smiled softly. "You're right Haruhi. I don't need to tell you. I want to." Kagome released her illusion and revealed her secret. The secret only her family, Shippo, and Sesshomaru knew.

Haruhi got dizzier by the second then passed out.

Please review ^^

And hehehe who shall I pair Haruhi with?
