InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Her Fading Smile ❯ Her Fading Smile ( Chapter 1 )

“Oy! Kagome! Got a sec?” Kagome turned around to see an out of breath Kouga approach her. School had let out for the week, and all she had to do was homework, homework, and more homework. It was as if teachers didn't think they had a life. She wouldn't have any time to do anything but her homework. She sighed and smiled for Kouga, earning back a cocky grin from him.

 

“Yea, what do you need this time?” This wasn't the first time he had asked her for something. She knew he liked her, more then friends, but she didn't like him the same way. She didn't like anyone that way yet, even though her best friend Sango had been going steady with her cousin Miroku. She seemed to be the only one to think that was gross, but she still fully supported them.

 

“You know the project we need to do for history?” Kouga asked her, bringing her out of her thoughts. She looked at him and nodded. Kouga took a deep breath and continued, still out of breath from his sprint from the other side of the school.

 

“Well, I don't think I could do it alone, and the teacher said we could do it with partners if we wanted. I know that you would do awesome, sodoyouwanttobepartners?” He finished in a fast rush. Kagome giggled, she couldn't help it. She knew what he wanted, she knew since the teacher announced that partners were allowed, that Kouga would ask her. She felt happy that someone would want to be her partner, and did like, but only as a friend. She couldn't help but think it was cute how Kouga still blushed at her sometimes, or got nervous around her. Still smiling she gave Kouga her answer.

Inuyasha scowled at what the scene that played out in front of him. Kouga had asked Kagome something—again. Probably to partner up with him for the history assignment. He saw Kagome giggle and his scowl lightened a bit. He had been friends with Kagome for a while, she was the first one to accept him for who he was, except for his late parents. He didn't even realize that he liked Kagome as more then a friend until Hojo had asked her out. The feeling he felt, it was something he had never felt, and when turned him down, gently of course, his heart swelled with joy. His scowl deepened more though when Kouga laughed and grabbed her hand as they started walking to their homes. Things had been great before Kouga moved to their neighborhood on the other side of Kagome's house. They all lived in a private drive together if that wasn't enough. The good thing was that Kagome's cousin Miroku also lived with Kagome, or more like Kagome lives with Miroku. How a girl could actually live with a pervert like that, he would never know. Inuyasha and Miroku were best friends, still are really, except Miroku had been spending most of his time with Sango now that they were going out. Inuyasha felt like the only one who thought it was gross, but he didn't really have anything against it. Sango was OK too, although he liked Kagome much, much more. That was another thing he lost to Kouga; Kagome. Kouga and Inuyasha both hated each other with the whole wolf/dog conflict going on. Kouga had taken so much from Inuyasha, like his pride and dignity. Now he took Kagome too, although he and Kagome weren't really together. He knew that she didn't like Kouga the way that he liked her, she told him so, but she still seemed to enjoy his company, which for some reason pissed him off even more. Standing up to walk home alone for the third time that week, he was surprised to feel a hand on his shoulder. Turning around quickly he saw Miroku standing behind him with a thoughtful expression on his face, his eyes set on what he himself was watching moments ago (kagome and Kouga in case you forgot.)

 

“You going home?” Miroku asked, his eyes still not leaving the scene in front of him. Inuyasha turned to watch too, but quickly faced back to Miroku.

 

“Yeah, why?”

 

“Can I join you? Maybe go to your house with you and pig out on junk food or something and play video games. Something that men would do.” Miroku said, turning to face Inuyasha. “Sango said that she thought I was too engaged in female bodies, she thinks if I engage in things that most guys my age do, other then what I already do, I could be a better person.” Inuyasha rolled his eyes. Miroku's uncle was a monk, so Miroku was being trained as a monk as well, even though he was as unholy as someone like him could be. Miroku always spoke like an adult, which bugged the hell out of him, but other girls thought it was romantic, which was probably why he did it. Rolling his eyes again he nodded.

 

“Sure, whatever. I have an Xbox we can play if you really want to.” He didn't really care what he did, just as long as he could forget about what he saw moments ago. Walking on with his backpack slung over one shoulder; he headed home. Miroku ran to catch up.

 

“One more thing” Miroku called out to him. Inuyasha nodded up ahead to show he was listening.

 

“Wanna be partners for the history project?”

OK! I KNOW I SAID THIS WOULD BE A SONGFIC! But I changed it. I decided to make this an entire story. I know in the songfic part I made Kouga seem OOC, but don't worry! Im trying to make them similar to how I think they am, what do you think so far? Im gonna explain EVERYTHING! But it will take some time. This is a story now, and I like it so far. This chapter is 2 pages, and its sort of a prologue. I have decided that this will be AT LEAST 10 CHAPTERS, and I will write a sequel too. I know exactly how I want this to be, so unless life gets tough, updates for this week won't have huge gaps. So yea, that's it for now! Gotta study for my high school exam! Adios!

 

By the way, for the house part, Kouga, inuyasha, and kagome live in a private drive with just three houses. Kagome and Miroku in the middle, inuyasha on the left, and Kouga on the right. Hojo used to live where Kouga does, but then he moved out and Kouga moved in. Hojo will return though!
