CHAPTER 24: NEW YEAR PART 1

 

"Are you sure you don't want to come?" Kagome asked over the phone, which was tucked between her shoulder and head. She sifted through her closet looking for the right pair of shoes. Damn, she didn't know she even owned this many. "I'm sure we could go for a late shopping spree, pick you up a dress, some shoes."

 

"I'm sure," Sango replied, flipping the channels of her digital cable, "I told you, me and Miroku are going to his house for new year. You know, some time alone. We can't spend all of our time with you guys."

 

"I know," Kagome whined, "but I'm not a big fancy party person either."

 

"And neither is Inuyasha. He's just forced to go cause his brother is throwing the thing. Don't worry Kagome, he probably wont let you out of his sight anyways."

 

Kagome sighed, and lifted another pair of shoes, ugly red ones. Where were her white ones with diamond straps? Or ivory ones? If she didn't find them soon, she was going to have to borrow another article from her mother. Man, nothing as been normal ever since she met Inuyasha. She guessed money really did make a difference. God, why did Sesshomaru have to throw the party this year? After Christmas, Kagome was dying for some time alone with Inuyasha, but no, somebody up in the office said `why don't we stress Kagome Higurashi at the end of the year? I'm sure it would be fun!'. She hated the big gatherings and all the high living people with their beautiful gowns and accessories. She shuddered as she thought of all the beautiful people she was going to have to mingle with. When this was over, she was so torturing Inuyasha with abstinence. Show him to force her to go with his `please, I don't want to be alone with the pompous asses!' guilt trip.

 

"I don't know Sango, I mean should I really go? Inuyasha said his brother invited the `good' people to it. So not only will there not be drunken outbursts, but I have to restrain on the champagne."

 

Sango laughed, "don't fret, I'm sure Inuyasha's gonna be jugging it with his nerves. You can join him and make the biggest Asses of yourselves."

 

"Doesn't sound too bad. All right Sango, I'll let you go. I think Miroku dying to talk to you." Kagome grinned, "oh and Sango?"

 

"Yeah?"

 

"Be a good girl!" Kagome pressed the off button of the phone, ignoring the protests screaming at her from the phone. She smiled. She wondered how long Sango would last against Miroku's suggestive mouth. Wait, on second thought, no she didn't.

 

"Yes!" successful, Kagome pulled out a pair of high heels that had cost her quite a bit of money. But she had to have them. They were a shiny white material, three-inch high heels, and had two thin strips crossing over the top of the foot, practically sparkling with white rhinestones. Perfect. She got up and went over to her bedroom door, where her mother's dress hung that she was going to wear. Her face softened, and she skimmed a finger over it. It was white silk, with a low cut back to the end of her shoulder blades and high front. The front ended just under her collarbone and there were no straps. The tiny beads that were sewn in started under the top of the dress, and spread down in a sunburst design, with the least amount of beads ending somewhere around mid thigh. Her mother had also insisted on the warp that she had used, Kagome protesting to that most of all, but gave in to her mother's pleading stare. Kagome fingered that too. It was soft white ermine, about four feet in length and a foot wide, just enough to wrap against the cold.

Kagome sighed dreamily. When Inuyasha had told her family about the new years party at his house, and he wanted Kagome to go, Her mother had practically jumped at the chance to make up her daughter. It must be left over from Kagome's younger years where she and her mother spent hours playing dress up. She had dragged Kagome upstairs to her room, and dug through it until she pulled the dress out with its plastic covering. She said she had made it when she was younger, and had worn it the night she met Kagome's father. Kagome almost blinked at how bright her mother glowed at the memory. Kagome protested of course, saying she'll just wear an old gown, but her mother had begged like no tomorrow for her to wear it. She had made it after all. Jeez, how many guilt trips could one person have? Soon after, she had Kagome trying it on, to see if it needed trimming. It had fit Kagome like a glove, custom made for her.

 

And now Kagome stood, the night before the party, touching the beautiful gown that was handmade for what seemed like her. This was going to be a New Years she was never going to forget.

 

The only thing was, she had no idea how much it will mean….

 

 

8: 46 PM, New Years Eve

 

 

Kagome stood looking in the full-length mirror of her room, turning this way and that. Yep, it was a custom made glove. It was new years, and she had...about fifteen minutes to get there. No problem, expect for one. She was wearing her gown. The white silk smoothed over her curves like milk, and felt light as clouds. The ermine wrap went around her back and rested above her elbows comfortably, and her white shoes sparkled with the beads of the dress and matched the small white handbag clutched in a death grip. She pulled her raven locks into a bun that was held up by Chinese pins, the loose tendrels that hung down curled to perfection with the help of an iron. Her misty lip-gloss added more pink to her lips, and her lids shined with a dash of white eyes shadow and gold glitter. And lastly, Inuyasha's locket hung about her neck, never a day off her neck since she got it, and glowed almost magically in the might. She heaved a breath nervously. Well, here's go.

 

"Kagome! Your rides here!" her mother called form the stairs. Kagome blinked. Ride?

Taking her time on the stairs so as not to fall flat on her face, Kagome descended to her mother's sight. Her mother gasped and let her eyes roam over the angel that was her daughter.

 

"Oh, Kagome, you look magnificent. Now I can see why I kept that dress for so long." Her mother breathed, and gave her a light hug. Kagome blushed in happiness.

 

The clearing of a throat caught their attention, and Kagome turned to find a dressed and primed driver, waiting patiently. What they didn't know was when they were having the mother-daughter bonding moment, the young driver was taking the time to pull his tongue back into his mouth. He had never expected an angelic piece of heaven to walk down the steps, though he had heard master Inuyasha's girlfriend was quite pretty. But…damn.

 

Kagome quickly gathered composure, blocking the tears that threatened. The driver was a young man, with dirty blonde hair and bright blue eyes. He was pretty cute, and his mouth pulled into a friendly smiled when he stepped back and swept an arm to the door. . Kagome nodded, kissed her mother good-bye, and walked out. She pulled the wrap tighter as a chill wind swept by, and carefully looked out for ice. The driver was patient as she slowly went down the steps of the shrine.

 

"Sorry about the hold up," Kagome said as they reached the bottom.

 

He smiled, "not a problem miss, I was still recovering from climbing up them. My name is Kyo, and I'll be driving you to sir Sanosuke's home. Right this way."

 

He led her to the street, where she stopped and gasped. At the curb was parked a black slick stretch limo, which even looked good in a yellow street lamp. Kyo noticed her paused and smiled. "Master Inuyasha requested it."

 

"Is he here?" Kagome said out of her stupor.

 

"He will be waiting for you at the front door miss. Master Sesshomaru had insisted he stay and greet guests." More like ordered it, but she didn't need to know that. He noticed the disappointment in her eyes, and softened. He couldn't help it, she was just so…perfect, and to see that mar her beauty made Kyo want to strangle the hanyou boy. Instead he went over and opened the door for her.

 

"Shall we miss?"

 

Getting over her disappointment that Inuyasha hadn't made it, Kagome smiled brightly, making Kyo's heart speed, and eagerly got into the limo with a thank you. He shut it and went to his proper post in the driver's seat. The engine purred to life and smoothly sailed wont he streets, making nothing but a whisper as it passed the buildings of the city.

 

 

9: 10 PM

 

 

Inuyasha fidgeted at the door of the glorious mansion. He glanced at his watch again. She's late, ten minutes late. Damn it Kyo, if he fucked it up…god Inuyasha couldn't think of threat he was so anxious. He nodded and smiled at a couple that walked in politely, not really paying attention to them. Lincoln's and limos and Lexus's had been pulling and dropping off for the past fifteen minutes, but still no Kagome. His nose twitched and he acknowledged Sesshomaru's presence by not saying something. Inside, he could hear music playing and people chatting and greeting each other. The ping of glass hitting glass as champagne was handed out rung sharply in his ears. The house was given a white pretty glow from the tiny lights that were strung along the bushes and shrubs, and the snow was laid softly along the lawn. But he didn't care right now.

 

"Stop fidgeting Inuyasha, you'll scare the guests," Sesshomaru commented next to him, in his perfect spotless black tuxedo, no wrinkles to show and had a bright red rose to accompany his front jacket pocket. Just for the occasion, he had pulled out his long furry fluffy white tail to drape about one shoulder, and he let his long silver mane flow in the breeze. Lets just say, if he walked into a lesbain convention, all of them would be turned straight at the sight if him. (A/n: I'm sorry I had to get that in there!)

 

"Feh," Inuyasha grumbled beside him. Screw the guests, he only wanted to spend this night with one person and that was Kagome.

 

"I'm sure she'll be here, they're probably stuck in traffic. I mean there's a lot of parties to day," Sesshomaru suggested.

 

"Feh," was Inuyasha's response again, and Sesshomaru let it go. Hey, if you get two `feh's in a row, you drop it, otherwise it turns ugly.

 

But just then, a black limo pulled up, and Sesshomaru recognized the driver as Kyo. He nudged his brother and pointed at it. "Here she is."

 

Inuyasha's head snapped to attention and he straightened his jacket. Kyo got out hurriedly, and shot Inuyasha an apologetic look. Inuyasha acknowledged with a quirk of his brow. Kyo quickly came around the other side of the long limo and reached for the door handle. It popped open, and all was forgotten.

 

Inuyasha watched entranced as a white sparkling foot came out first, and she took the blushing Kyo's hand. She came out into he cold night, and looked upon the house in its glamour. Inuyasha thought he had died and gone to a very good part of heaven. His eyes roamed over every curve, every heavenly detail with burning accuracy. Her gown looked like it had been woven around her in one piece, and her beautiful pale skin shamed the fluffy ermine about her shoulders. Her hair had been pulled into the tousled bun she had worn at the dance, his favorite style, and she added beauty to the make up she wore, not the other way around. She took a step forward her eyes bright as she roamed the house, and pale flesh peeked out the slit up the front of her dress. Inuyasha felt his knees shake.

 

Her glorious brown eyes found his, and she gave him a smile that would have corpses grow warm again. Inuyasha's heart pounded in his head, and he paid no mind when Sesshomaru smiled and walked away smugly. He couldn't seem to move his tongue in his dry mouth and his heart rate skyrocketed as she came to him. Her fragrance floated to his nose and he closed his eyes as he breathed deeply, making his blood hum.

 

She walked up to say hello, and felt smug at the flabbergasted expression that refused to leave Inuyasha's face, but he had other plans. She blushed as he gently swept her into his arms and placed a gentle kiss upon her slightly open mouth. It was passionate, no need to deepen it, and they both ignored the stares and giggles they were getting. They parted and left Kagome panting pleasantly, staring deep into Inuyasha's golden orbs.

 

"Hello to you too," she breathed weakly, the blush's heat spreading down.

 

"You're beautiful," he whispered, and she felt a nice shiver go down her spine. They straightened, him still holding her, and she gave him a breath-taking smile.

 

"You're not too bad yourself." No indeedy, not too bad at all. Now when they say all men look great in a tux, they weren't talking about Inuyasha, cause he looked friggin' hot. He had a white bow tie instead of black, and the tuxedo just…mmm, made her want to drool! He had swept his white hair into a leather thong, making a nice little sexy effect when his forelocks resting on his shoulders. She noticed his ears were gone and saw the white headband before she asked about that. But the look he was giving her now…oh, if he didn't stop they were going right back into that limo and driving very far away where no one could hear them.

 

"Come on," she said as she took his arm and started leading him in, "let's go mingle with high society."

 

"Oh great, cant wait."

 

Kagome's eyes went everywhere as they walked in, and Inuyasha couldn't help but smile.

 

The entrance hall was decorated brightly, as was the rest of the house to be seen, and people upon people were talking, all beautiful and all rich. But none of that mattered to him, cause he had the one treasure in the whole world that one else could have gripping his arm.

Sesshomaru spotted them and excused himself from a lovely young lady who was quite attractive. She only smiled and looked where he was going, and gasped. She quickly found a friend and started gossiping. As Sesshomaru made his way, Inuyasha was glaring at any guy who was staring too long at Kagome. She was of course oblivious, too enraptured by the mansion to notice. He noticed Sesshomaru coming and relaxed.

 

Kagome spotted Sesshomaru and gave him a smile and wave. He returned her smile and gently took her hand when he came upon them. He laid a quick peck upon it and she giggled. "You look positively lovely Kagome. Is that a designer dress?"

 

She shook her head," my mother made it when she was younger. She let me wear it tonight."

 

"Your mother has quite the skill with a needle," Sesshomaru complimented.

 

"Inuyasha!" they turned to the voice that called Inuyasha, brows rising. A girl came form the crowd, possibly about mid twenties, and gave them a bright cocky smile. She wore a red dress that stopped mid calf, that wasn't too skimpy but still showed some flesh. She was pretty, with ruby red eyes, and pulled her hair back and stuck a few red feathers in it. Inuyasha gave her a quick grin, but it vanished when he realized what this meant.

 

The girl quickly came over and gave him a quick hug before greeting him, "hey Inuyasha. Well well, look at you! You've definitely grown since last I saw you. Not a little puppy any more. Can you believe this crowd? Oh hi Sesshomaru, great party, especially the drinks. Just wish there weren't so many dotty airheads, but you take what you get."

 

"Yes well, a party is a party, no matter what you like. Oh let me introduce somebody, since my brother is off in his own world right now. Kagura, this Kagome, Inuyasha's girl friend. Kagome this is Kagura, a family friend." Sesshomaru made the appropriate gestures and stepped back.

 

Kagura turned to the little girl who was quietly studying her. And raised a brow. Wow, and she thought Inuyasha had no taste, this girl was friggin' beautiful. A slow smile pulled her red mouth as she studied the girl. She looked liked her, but was so much better. Yep, he sure has better taste than she expected.

 

Kagura held out her hand boldly and Kagome was met with a strong grip. "Hajimemashite Kagome, I'm Kagura, long time friend of Inuyasha. Of course not as much though cause of college but what the hey. You I have heard some things about you form him in his calls, but he never mentioned you were a model."

 

Kagome laughed, " I'm not a model, but it's nice to meet you. Inuyasha never mentioned you before."

 

Kagura rolled her eyes and smacked Inuyasha on his arm, "some friend you are."

 

The smack brought Inuyasha out o his stupor and he paid attention to what was being said. He grinned evilly, "you are my friend, cause you're the only other one who thinks that rich people are egotistical snobs."

 

"May I remind you we are rich too, but who cares?" Kagura noticed his eyes glanced a few ways before focusing back on her. Oh yeah. "Yeah in know Inuyasha, its gonna be hell. Especially with the things she's been saying about you and her. Might as well come with me and get wasted."

 

Kagome raised a brow, "what is she talking about?"

 

But Kagura looked past them and put on a cheery face, "hi dad, hey sis!"

 

Kagome and Inuyasha turned around, inlays giving an inward groan. Kagome's eyes went wide as she spotted the father and …sister. Oh god….

 

"Kagura, you always seem to find them before us," the man with long wavy black hair said, his red eyes coldly amused. Beside him stood someone Kagome would give anything not to see.

 

"Yes, Kagura I wonder how that is," Kikyou said coldly, focusing her frozen glare on Kagome. Her gown gave a purple shine as she walked towards them. It clung tightly to her, in a slutty kind of way, and her stilettos clicked sharply on the tile.

 

Kagome looked at Inuyasha form the corner of her eye, and noticed his hard eyes and stiff posture.

 

"Naraku," Sesshomaru bowed to his business partner respectively, and Naraku did the same, but almost mockingly. Sesshomaru almost frowned. He had no respect for the man, but he wouldn't show it.

 

"Dad, have you met Kagome?" Kagura asked bitter sweetly, and put an arm around her new friends shoulder. She noticed how Kikyou shot daggers at the girl with her eyes. Maybe it's time for some fun.

 

"Why no I haven't," Naraku took Kagome's hand, making Inuyasha tense, and bowed over it. Sesshomaru relaxed behind them slightly, he knew Naraku was notorious for his flirting and liking to young women. "Naraku Onigumo."

 

Kagome took her hand back as politely as possible, her hand feeling some how violated, "Kagome Higurashi."

 

"I'm sure Kikyou doesn't need the introduction, they used to go to school together, right Kikyou?" Kagura smirked at her raging sister. She turned to Kagome, "Kagome you must tell me where you got that dress! It's absolutely fantastic! And with the ermine, you look like an angel!" she waggled her brows at Inuyasha, making him grin, "I'm sure Inuyasha especially likes it!"

 

"Indeed," the undertone voice of Naraku caught Sesshomaru and Inuyasha's ears, going unnoticed by anyone else. Inuyasha's hand tightened on Kagome's arm, making her glance nervously at him. Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes as he noticed Naraku looking the girl over a bit too intently. He moved their way a few inches, standing right behind Kagome. Naraku only smirked. All the while, Kikyou was boiling coldly, thinking of wondrous ways to torture Kagome with. The bitch will pay, no doubt. Not only for stealing her man but also for breaking her nose. Kagome might think its is, but Kikyou knew for sure, it wasn't over. And Kagura's intentional compliments were only making it worse, because they were true. It angered Kikyou that Kagome could look better, far better than her. Oh no, this wasn't over by a long shot.

 

Kagura watched smugly as Kikyou stalked off to a waiter and snatched a glass of the bubbly wine, and jugged it down. She loved doing that. She turned to Inuyasha with a happy smile and pecked his cheek, "see you later darling, I'm going to what this party has to offer."

 

Naraku watched his daughter stalk off boldly, and turned his attention to the trio in front of him. Sesshomaru was giving him warning glares, while Inuyasha tried focusing on something above his shoulder, but failed in covering up his enraged eyes. Naraku put on his famous smirk and bowed once again, his cold beady eyes landing on the nervous Kagome.

 

"It was truly a pleasure to meet you Miss. Higurashi," he took her hand again and bowed over it. The only one who noticed was Kagome when Naraku's thumb rubbed over her knuckles before walking off. She snatched back her hand like it was on fire and shuddered. She didn't know what it was, but she didn't like the man, and she didn't plan to.

 

Inuyasha felt her shudder on his arm, and faced her worried, "you okay?"

 

She gave him a small smile, "sure, you know, seeing Kikyou again and all. Come on; flash me around like a prize I feel like I'm rusting.

 

Inuyasha smiled and laughed, and gathered her arm again. No matter what, she always had a come back. Sesshomaru watched them go with a bit of pride before heading after Naraku. He was going to make sure his `business partner' behaved himself.

 

 

11: 54 PM

 

 

Kagome came out laughing on the balcony above the veranda, a glass half full of champagne in hand. Inuyasha followed her in the same condition, trying to focus his eyes on where he was going. Kagome bumped into the edge giggling, but Inuyasha had more difficulty. Good thing they were only tipsy, otherwise Kagome wouldn't have caught Inuyasha before he went over the edge laughing madly. This in turn caused her to laughed more and she leaned against the stone rail clutching her stomach. Inuyasha joined her in the hysterics, and they stayed that way for a minute. When they finally calmed down, they stood leaning against the balcony edge panting for breath.

 

Inuyasha wiped a tear form his eye, "we are so drunk."

 

Kagome gulped her wine, "is that bad?"

 

Inuyasha's face screwed up but he smiled, "I don't know, I mean we not that far gone. Remember Kagura?"

 

This caused Kagome to choke on the next gulp she was taking and she quickly took the wine away, giggling madly. Oh yeah she remembered. How could she not? I mean, how do forget a girl who is so drunk she starts hitting on Sesshomaru and says some very…inappropriate things in plain hearing. Of course it was even funnier when Sesshomaru stopped laughing at her expense and paled considerably at a certain suggestion she made. Good thing Kagura passed out though, otherwise things would have gotten worse. Right now the girl in question was flung on a guest bed drooling unattractively.

 

Inuyasha looked at his watch, and was surprised to know that he didn't need to squint yet. It was now 11:57, three minutes to the big moment. He looked over to Kagome, who was viewing the ocean that was down the property aways, and watching as it glittered prettily. He smiled. She had been so beautiful tonight, more so than anytime before. And it made him feel like the luckiest man alive. They shared some champagne, had a few slow dances that pleased him so much, and had actually had a good time with `the pompous Asses'.

 

"Hey Kagome?" he said, and she turned to him and smiled. His heart did a nice little flip. "Want to watch the fireworks?"

 

She laughed, "Your brother went that far?"

 

He snorted, "no! But you can see the city form here, and they have fireworks tonight. You want to?"

 

"Sure, I'd love to," she said as she pulled the ermine wrap tighter against the cold. He frowned.

 

"You cold?"

 

She shrugged, "a little."

 

"Then let me fix that," he growled her ear as his arms came around her, making her giggle giddily. He rested his chin on her head, and smiled contently. This was paradise right here. Snuggling warmly with Kagome, watching the stars off the ocean, and hearing the distant sound of cheers that came from the city square as the count down to New Year went on. And he wouldn't change it for the world. His heart tattooed faster. He wouldn't would he? He would stay forever, forgetting the world and its troubles, and have Kagome stay in his arms contently. Because its what made him happy, what made his life right. That made his heart glow and his mind focus on one thing. Kagome. Then it hit him like a ton of bricks. He loved her. He loved Kagome, beyond any words. But he wanted to tell her, he wanted her to know.

 

"Oh look!" Kagome cheered as the first rocket went off in the distance, and the racket down stairs penetrating his foggy mind. She laughed and clapped happily as more shot up and exploded in the sky, the colors changing her dress as they glowed down at them. But Inuyasha didn't see the fireworks, or heard the cheers of `happy new years' below. But more he stared at Kagome in all her wonder. She smiled like a happy child at the bright colors and her bright eyes made him wonder if she was human. But all he knew, was that she was here with him, enjoying the night with him, and it only made him happier. He laughed and swept her into his arms, making her cry out in surprise and hold on tighter as he spun her in a circle. He brought her down a little, only to capture her lips in a sizzling kiss, making Kagome aware the flutter in her heart and the cry of need in her gut. She melted against him and deepened the kiss several degrees. All she could think was `more'.

 

"Ahem," they broke as Akiko, who was back, stood in the doorway leading to the balcony with a phone in her hand. "Sorry to disturb you, but you have a call."

 

"Who is it?" Inuyasha asked gruffly, annoyed at being interrupted. Akiko only smiled and handed him the phone, off to do her tasks for the night. Inuyasha raised his brow, but put the phone to his head. "Hello?"

 

Big mistake. "HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!" Inuyasha cried out as the voices of Miroku and Sango screamed into his ear, making it ring loudly. Kagome heard it and busted out laughing, trying to hold it back as Inuyasha growled at the phone.

 

"Are you trying to make me deaf?!" he hollered them, and Kagome could hear them laughing over the line. The next ten minutes was chatting and cheering, and Kagome could hear people in the back round. She asked, and Sango told them they were in the city square celebrating.

 

An hour later, guests, drunk and sober alike, were stumbling out the door and into their driver driven cars, cheering the year to an end. As much as Inuyasha hated it, he had to say goodbye to the angel of his life.

 

"Do you have to go?" he whined as they stood next to her limo, Kyo waiting patiently. She giggled and kissed his pouting lips.

 

"Yeah `fraid so. My mom would kill me if I stayed over night, she still doesn't quite trust me. But I'll see you tomorrow, and we can pick up where we left off." Kagome gave him a suggestive look that had his heart rocketing to his throat. But he pouted anyways.

 

"All right…see ya."

 

She smiled and kissed him again before ducking in and waving. "Love!"

 

"Love," but he gasped as it left his mouth. He hadn't really been thinking when he said it, it just came out. So it must be real…she rolled down her window and waved again, and he waved as she rolled down the driveway. He watched as the gates opened and closed, shutting him off form his love. He sighed. Well the guests were one, the house was being cleaned tomorrow and Sesshomaru went to an after party at a friend house. He was alone. But not in his heart. Whistling at his newfound discovery, he headed upstairs and planned to wash away the alcohol that was in him.

 

Kagome sighed and leaned against the window of the limo. The night had been fun, great, and she had been there with Inuyasha. Her one and only love. She felt a bit down cast though. Though the night had been wonderful, and she had felt beautiful the whole time under his gaze, she felt as if something was missing.

 

Kyo noticed her fallen face in the rearview mirror and frowned. What's wrong? "I presume you had a good time miss?"

 

She smiled, "a great time."

 

"Then why so sad?"

 

She glanced his way. Is he a therapist or something? She shrugged. Hey it was someone to talk to. "I don't know. I guess I wanted to stay longer with him. But mommy dearest wants me home."

 

He chuckled, "yeah, I know. My mother use to be protective like that. I remember this one time, I had a girlfriend who wanted me to come over, but my mom said no. It got me angry though a said `screw you' and went anyways. When I got home she told me she was proud I stood up for myself. Man that was weird."

 

She laughd a little. He looked her way again, "and from the looks of it, you'd do the same. You don't want to be here do you?"

 

She smiled again and looked down. Boy he had no idea how much. She remembered the moment it turned twelve and the fireworks had gone off. And that kiss. It was like no other kiss he had given before, like he had discovered something new and wanted to share with her. And she had liked it, wanted more of it. Like she needed it to survive. Which was kind of true. She loved him to the point of pain and relished in it. She loved him like it was her last day every day, and she never wanted it to stop. But did he know? Could he feel the same? Her head came up and she looked at her concentrated face in the window. What if she showed him just what love was? What if she showed him the real her? She didn't care if he turned away after, she just wanted that moment. She smiled. And she was going to have it.

 

"Kyo."

 

"Yes miss?"

 

"Turn the car around."
