Foreign Exchange Orphan

Chapter Two:

Inuyasha's Report and Kikyo's Letter

The next day was quite interesting. He woke early to find everyone still asleep, except for Kagome. She was sitting at the table, eating something round and fluffy and two little brown things.

"Hey Inuyasha, want some breakfast?"

"Whatever." But he really did. His nose and stomach betrayed him again!

"It's pancakes and sausage. Try it, it's better than that gruel." He nodded and sat down across the table from her, like yesterday and tried to stuff a pancake into his mouth whole.

"No, no!" she giggled, shaking her head. "Cut it up!"

"Wha?"

"Put the knife in the right hand, fork in the left hand..." She got up and gave him that warm, fuzzy feeling as she touched his hand, teaching him how to delicately saw the pancake. Even though it made him feel good, he still squirmed away from her.

"See, it's not that hard, is it?" He didn't answer because his cheeks were stuffed.

"Mmmm..." he sighed once he had cleared five plates.

"Wow, you must've been very hungry!"

"Yeah."

"Look, I have something special for us to do for a while!"

"Like what?"

"Mrs. Ochida, that's my teacher, said we have do a report on our foreign exchange students. Do you mind if I interview you?"

"Depends," he grumbled, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Great!"

"Hey, I didn't agree!"

"Whatever. So what's your last name?"

"Dunno."

"Age?"

"17."

"Ooh, you're a year older than me! Birthday?"

"Um...January 25th."

"Uh...what orphanage did you come from?"

"The SJ Orphanage for Abandoned Kids." He tensed, but relaxed at little when Kagome smiled at him. Smiling was OK, but touching was another story...

They lazed about the house the next few days, since Kagome had to work to earn some more allowance so they could go out. During that time, they watched TV, played sports in the backyard, which Inuyasha was very fond of, and played video games, thanks to Souta. Kagome was currently teaching Inuyasha how to play Chinese Checkers and he was getting pretty good.

When Kagome went to get the mail, she came back shocked.

"What's your problem?" Something about her scent wasn't right.

"Uh...you've got a letter. I think from your friend." She tossed him a pink envelope with kisses plastered all over it.

"Ohhhh, Kikyo's letter!" he figured.

"Kikyo?"

"Yeah, what about her?"

"Sounds very familiar."

~*Flashback*~

There was a lot of crying. It was dark and raining. A little girl was getting shoved into a car. She was shrieking at the top of her lungs. Kagome was crying. Where were they taking her? Would she ever see her family again? The car drove off.

~*End of Flashback*~

Kagome shook her head, dismissed it as a strange dream, and continued riffling through the mail. Inuyasha had dashed to his room, embarrassed. Taking a deep breath, hoping that Kikyo's letter would be long and wonderful was instantly angry at her response.

Dear Inuyasha:

I just knew she was going to be awful! Butyou get what you deserve! Naraku is the greatest. I miss you sometimes, I guess.

Love,

Kikyo

Inuyasha dropped the letter on his bed, golden eyes wide with shock. What was with the pink and kisses? Was she becoming too close to Naraku? He bared his fangs, thinking what he would do if he put his hands on his precious Kikyo! But then again, that letter had been very short and snobby. He heard another soft knock on the door. Kagome came in, smiling.

"What's up?" She sat next to him, her gentle scent swimming around him.

"Uh..." He tried to hide the letter from view.

"Bad letter from your girlfriend, huh?" she asked, her smile fading a little.

"How'd you..."

"Your face gives it away. I'm sure whatever his under that hat...can't be that bad. You're not a horrible person." His eyes widened in surprise. Did she just say... No one had ever been that nice to him, not even Kikyo. Was he becoming soft? No, that wasn't it!

"So, you want to go to the park?" His face was still mottled in a frown. "Well, if you do, I'll be waiting outside for you." Kagome got up and left the room, closing the door behind her.

"I can't believe she'd said something so...nice!"

~* Awwwww! Wasn't that a sweet chapter! Waaaaay to short in my opinion. May lengthen it later... What did you think of Kikyo's letter? I hope the scene in the park is romantic enough for you guys, but not too mushy, since I hate that, too! Past Memoriesis kinda sad and angsty and twisted. And in my opinion it doesn't make sense, but muwahaha, it's a fic, so :-p! No more delay, let's go onto the next chapter!
