Out In The Rain

Inuyasha walked in with a wide smile on. "Good morning everyone."
"Good morning." replied everyone cheerfully as they went back to their work. Inuyasha
slowly walked toward his small working desk, which was stacked with papers. When he sat
down, he noticed a white bag and a drink. He opened the bag, and inside was a burger and fries.
Inuyasha looked around and saw Kagome drinking a drink exactly like his and smiled.
His heart was over filled with happiness and joy, and he ate the burger, which seemed to taste
much better then it use to.
Inuyasha walked up to Kagome, who still had her back toward him, and asked, "Kagome,
do you need a ride home?"
"Huh?"
"I heard your bike broke, so would you like me to drive you home? Asked Inuyasha
slightly blushing.
"Sure, and thank you very much Inuyasha."
"Yeah, no problem. Would you like me to pick you up for work form now on?"
"Inuyasha, I don't want to bother you."
"Your not bothering me."
"Well, I would like to get my bike fixed, because I am more use to it."
"Oh, maybe I can help." said Inuyasha as he walked out to see if he could fix Kagome's
bike.

"Why can't I stop thinking of Kagome!?" asked Sesshoumaru a bit frustrated. He looked
down at his music and growled. He just couldn't concentrate, because his minds always comes
across a certain childhood friend. Sesshoumaru was snapped out of his thoughts from a call from
Miroku, his friend.
"Hey Sesshoumaru, how's your music coming along? (Miroku I added. There wasn't a
character like this in the real movie.)
"Not so good. I can't concentrate, and your not helping."
"Why do you still keep that little, ugly, toad-like thing around?"
"Beats me. Anyway, what are you doing here?"
"I thought you were bored so I came to cheer you up."
"What joy."
"I also heard you have a new girlfriend. Is she prettier then Kagura?"
"I do not have a new girlfriend."
"But I heard it on tv."
"Do you always believe what the tv says?"
"No."
"So why are you believing it now?"
"Come on Sesshoumaru, your gonna put me in a bad mood too. How about we go for
some lunch and do something that will cheer you up?"
"Fine, I can't concentrate anyway."

"Kagome, this bike is too old. Why don't you buy a new one? This bike cannot be fixed."
said Inuyasha, who had been trying to fix the bike for hours.
"No! I am not getting a new bike."
"Why not?"
"This bike is special, because it was given to me by a really close friend."

***Flashback***

School had just been dismissed, when suddenly Sesshoumaru grabbed Kagome's hand
and pulled her away from the school. When they were away from the school, Sesshoumaru
showed Kagome a beautiful new bike. "You were never to healthy, and could never run, so I
bought you this bike." said Sesshoumaru softly with a blush.
Kagome gave Sesshoumaru a big hug and said, "Thank you Sesshoumaru, you're the
best. Though I don't know how to ride it."
Sesshoumaru smiled and replied, "I'll teach you. You wouldn't think I would let you fall,
did you?"
"Nope, I trust you."
Sesshoumaru slowly helped Kagome on to the bike, with one hand on the handle, and one
around Kagome's waist, he helped her ride slowly around in circles. After a while, Kagome got
use to riding the bike and was going quite fast. Sesshoumaru smiled, and laughed along with
Kagome, and they had a really good time.

***End Flashback***

"Kagome, KAGOME!" called Inuyasha, snapping her out of her memory. "It's almost
time to go, and I will bring the bike home with me and try to fix it, okay?"
"Thank you Inuyasha." stated Kagome as she went to lock up the door. Sango and Kikyou
had already left, which left Inuyasha and Kagome behind to close things up. Then she walked
toward Inuyasha's greyish, seven-seat car, where Inuyasha was waiting patiently.
On the way home, every few seconds, Inuyasha would look at Kagome and think how
beautiful she was. When Kagome felt Inuyasha's eyes on her, she turned around and looked at
him with a smile, which made him blush furiously.

Kagome laid on her bouncy, small, pinkish bed while she thought about Sesshoumaru and
how much he had changed. Kagome shares her bedroom with her sister, Janet, and it is always
neat and fresh. There is a large window, on the left of her bed, which you can see the street road.
Kagome yawned and drifted of into sleep, dreaming of Sesshoumaru and many other
things.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Outside of her house, Janet was leaning on Kouga's shoulder, sitting on a brand new
motorcycle. "So are you coming to America with me?" asked Kouga filled with hope.
"I really want to Kouga, I really do, but Mama won't let me."
"I don't want to go to America without you."
"And I don't want you to go to America alone. You might get a new girlfriend."
"Janet! You don't trust me? You know that you're the only one I love, and ever will
love."
Janet turned around faced Kouga, slowly their faces got closer and closer. Janet let her
eyes flutter close, she could feel Kouga's breath on her face. Kouga tilted his head and was going
to taste Janet's lips when someone yelled furiously.
"JANET!" screamed Mrs. Higurashi. Janet and Kouga quickly pulled apart and watched
as Mrs. Higurashi stomped over. She grabbed Janet's arm and pulled her away from Kouga
saying, "You two stay away from each other! Janet, I forbid you to see him again!"
"Mrs. Higurashi, I love Janet. I promise I will always love her and protect her." pleaded
Kouga.
"No!" Mrs. Higurashi stated angrily and pulled a struggling Janet into the house. Kouga
was following behind, pleading with Mrs. Higurashi to allow them to be together.
"No! And that is final!" Mrs. Higurashi stated angrily as she slammed the door in
Kouga's face.

Kagome jumped up from her bed when she heard the door slam. She slowly rubbed the
sleep from her eyes and went downstairs. Halfway through, she heard her mom and sister
fighting over the subject dating again. Kagome felt really sad, she understood how much Janet
wanted to be with Kouga.
She quickly went down to stop the fight, when she heard a loud slap.
"I hate you!" screamed Janet, with a red hand print on her cheek as she raced passed
Kagome and into their bedroom. Kagome continued down, even though she wanted to comfort
Janet, and saw her mom crying.
Seeing her family breaking apart, Kagome held in her tears as she grabbed her small,
black purse and walked out. Mrs. Higurashi was too caught up in her own depression to care why
and where Kagome was going.
Kagome ran as fast as her legs would carry her as tears began to stream down her face.
"Why? Why does my family have to fight all the time?" Kagome asked nobody in particular as a
downpour started. Kagome ignored the rain, and the fact that she was wet. She stopped walking
when she came to a poster with Sesshoumaru's picture and just stared at it.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Finally!" thought Sesshoumaru. "I got away from Miroku." Sesshoumaru slowly drove
home sighing a few times. Sesshoumaru stopped at a red light and looked out his window at the
dark night when he spotted Kagome standing in the middle of the rain.
Sesshoumaru quickly parked his car and rushed toward Kagome with a umbrella.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kagome snapped out of thoughts when she didn't feel the rain falling on her anymore.
She turned around when she felt a presence behind her and looked up and stared into
Sesshoumaru's golden eyes. "Sess- Sesshoumaru?"
"Kagome, why are you out here so late in the rain?"
"I-I." Kagome didn't finish talking when she suddenly fainted. Sesshoumaru quickly
dropped the umbrella and caught Kagome before she fell to the ground. Then he carried her
bridal style to his car and drove home as quickly as he could.
Sesshoumaru quickly drove through the rain, the whole time worrying about Kagome.
When they finally arrived, Sesshoumaru carried Kagome inside and laid her on the black couch
in the living room. Sesshoumaru held onto Kagome's hand the whole time, never letting go until
she waked up.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kagome feeling really warm and happy, which she hadn't felt for a really long time,
slowly opened her eyes to meet the golden ones of Sesshoumaru. "Sess- Sesshoumaru?"
"Yes, it's me. What happened?"
"My family was fighting again." cried Kagome as tears began to stream down her face
again. Sesshoumaru helped Kagome sit up and hugged her tightly, trying to comfort her. When
Kagome had stopped crying, Sesshoumaru left to make hot chocolate, and quickly returned.
Kagome talked to Sesshoumaru about everything except what happened at home and her
disease. Soon, it became really late, but they were to caught up in their talking to notice.
Slowly, Sesshoumaru's face inched close to Kagome's. Kagome didn't realize how close
they were until she felt his warm breath on her cheeks. Kagome let her eyes close and leaned
toward Sesshoumaru, while Sesshoumaru leaned toward Kagome. Then they shared their first
kiss. (Sesshoumaru never kissed Kagura.) At first, the kiss was light because they were both shy.
Soon, they deepened the kiss, each exploring the others mouth.
Suddnely, Kagome pulled away and rushed toward her purse. Sesshoumaru looked sad,
and really hurt. Kagome took out a bottle filled with pills and swallowed two. Sesshoumaru,
realizing that Kagome pulling away wasn't because she was repulsed by the kiss, felt relief wash
over. He quickly went and got her a cup of water.
"Are you okay?" asked Sesshoumaru feeling really worried.
"I'm fine now."
"I remember when we were young you had health problems. Seems to me you haven't
been taking care of yourself very well."
Kagome blushed when she remembered the kiss she had just shared with Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru helped Kagome back to the couch, and Kagome slept for the rest of the night with
Sesshoumaru right next to her, hand in hand.
