Kagome is a performer; it's just what she does. Sure, sometimes she gets a little case of the nerves, but nothing she couldn't over come. In fact, she could even recall one time when she had such bad stage fright; she had to sing with her back to the crowd. `Course she made it seem like it was part of the show, but it was nerves none the less.

 

…And for some reason she'd rather be facing that very crowd right now. Nothing compared to this. She was a simple girl, with a modest life and household. They didn't have all kinds of luxuries, but she had a computer in her room and a nice TV in the family room.

 

InuYasha's home was a totally different world.

 

She had to let some man in a pegnuin suit chauffeur her car around, then another man was opening doors for her. Oh yes, there was that thorough inspection she had to endure and now Kagome was being led to the `living area'. Whoa, I think you could fit my whole house in here… she thought as she nervously bite her bottom lip. The place was HUGE! It was practically ridiculous!

 

The man who led Kagome directed her to sit anyone she liked. She smiled nervously at him and nodded, choosing the closet seat. It was a rather comfy leather love seat, and she felt a shiver run down her spine as her bare legs connected with it. Ugh go figure, she thought lightly as she smoothed wrinkles from her skirt.

 

“The Inu Lord already knows you're, I expect he shall be making his presence known soon…”

 

No sooner did the words escape his limps, did a figure come stomping through the doorway as if he had something to prove. He crossed his arms defiantly and growled out (rather rudely), “OI! Jiro! Why is that wench here?!”

 

Kagome lifted her immediately at the sound of his voice. Her face heated with anger as she watched the hanyou come through the hallway that she previously entered. He of course looked irritated and gruff.

 

The man named `Jiro' bowed his head, then turned to make his leave. For a moment, she wished that she had followed. Lucky, Kagome thought flatly as her eyes left her skirt to watch the man exit. She then looked over to meet the golden orbs of the Inu-youkai.

 

“So what the hell are you doing here? And how did know you where I live?!” InuYasha snorted as he asked, growling to show his displeasure at her sudden appearance. Kagome rolled her eyes and noted his hair was tied at the nape of his neck, and his muscles tensed. He must've been working out or something…she thought half-heartedly, but snapped back to reality as she gulped. He sure was a thing to be seen…

 

“I-I just want to apologize.” She said hastily, stuttering as she fidgeted with her sleeve. InuYasha cocked a curious look at her causing Kagome inhale deeply. She paused for a moment, struggling with what she wanted to say. Then she raised he gaze to meet his.

 

“Look you and I don't know each other, really. And I just wanted to say that I was just angry…” She began slowly, trying to decide if she was wording everything right. InuYasha rolled his eyes.

 

“Keh. Like I cared.” He grunted, sticking his nose defiantly in the air. Kagome stared blankly at him, try very hard to contain the temper that was about to explode. She could handle him, she could do it… but she would REALLY love to send him flying into the ground… I think Grandpa has some subduing beads, she thought menacingly. But deciding that would be a dangerous idea, she quickly dismissed the thought.

 

“I was just trying to be polite!” she snapped at him, ocean eyes focusing on gold.

 

“Read my lips woman, I don't fucking care!” InuYasha snapped back, pointing to his mouth to emphasize his point. Kagome rolled her eyes and threw her hands in the air in frustration.

 

“You are so dense!” she spat, turning to give him the cold shoulder.

 

“And what are you, stupid?” InuYasha followed, noting that he was beginning to enjoy the looks that were crossing the face of the girl before him. Maybe I'll press her a little more… “Keh… wench.”

 

“I JUST WANTED TO APOLOGIZE!” Kagome turned quickly to face him as she was practically seething. How could this guy, whom she barely knew, get under her skin like no one else? She got to her feet and he did the same.

 

“Well you did, so go ahead and LEAVE!!” he hissed, smirking inwardly at the color that was flooding Kagome's cheeks. Women are so easily bated…

 

“Why you arrogant son of a…”

 

Kagome inched closer so that they were in each other's faces now. She was breathing hard, and her eyes were burning fire into InuYasha's. She had a feeling that he was getting some enjoyment out of her anger, which only caused Kagome to ball her hands into fists with frustration.

 

InuYasha was just a stupid baka! Why would he care? Kagome thought, challenging him to say one more cocky thing…His parent's probably made him send that package anyway! “You don't have to be such a jerk!” she snorted at him, only gaining a shrug in return.

 

“Aren't you done now?” he asked matter-of-factly, casually stretching his arms out to express his lack of interest.

 

Kagome's jaw ticked with adrenaline, she just couldn't believe him. How could some one be so thickheaded!? She had come here, feeling like an idiot all embarrassed and everything… and here he was, acting like an ass after she has wasted all that time working up the courage to come over here!

 

She stared into him. She saw the long snowy hair dangling to the curve of his back, the arrogant smirk that decorated his features, and the (oh so very cute) dog eyes atop his head. He had the aura of someone menacing and of someone impulsive. InuYasha Taisho was a lot to handle.

 

But Kagome would not back down.

 

She wasn't going to take her eyes off those orbs. She wasn't going to cower. That was exactly what he wanted her to do, be exactly like everyone else and cower before him. Like he was something great!

 

“I'm not leaving! Look, I came here with good intentions!” Kagome stated, her worlds seeping through clenched teeth. She was practically on her tiptoes just to meet with his chin, and she couldn't imagine that she looked very threatening. But when you're a powerful Inu-Hanyou, what really is threatening?

 

“I wanted you to know…I got your package,” Kagome said slowly, shaking traveling thoughts from her mind. She watched the shock spread across InuYasha's features and decided it was safe to back down a little. “Why didn't you say anything about it?”-But only a little bit.

 

InuYasha's expression changed slightly at her words. She had never received the gift he sent to her? Well that explains a shit ton, he growled to himself, mentally taking a note to call the Delivery Company and chew them out as soon as the girl left. The silver haired boy looked down at Kagome with a more relaxed expression on his face.

 

“So that's what this is all about?”

 

Kagome couldn't help be taken off guard by the softness in his voice. Where did the cocky demon persona disappear too? Had she FINALLY struck a chord with him? At the thought, her expression changed as well. She was ready to be civil. “Ugh woman, you really are stupid.”

 

Kagome practically fell backwards in exasperation; she should have figured. She sweat dropped, and stomped her foot down on his. “You JERK!” she spat, temper rising… yet again.

 

“Ow! You wench! That hurt!” he spat at her, balancing on one foot as he tried to soothe the other. He glowered at her.

 

“Are bitch and wench the only insults you can come up with?” she asked defiantly as she got in his face again.

 

“Oi! You are really starting to PISS ME OFF!”

 

Kagome shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. “Oh well.” She stated, mocking his annoyance. InuYasha growled lowly and gave up on soothing his sore foot, which by the way the woman would pat for later, and stared the girl up and down.

 

InuYasha grumbled something under his breath and stomped over to find a place to sit. He sat on the leather couch and began to run his fingers through his hair. He paused to peer at the raven-haired girl, a scowl on his face the whole time. She stood there, tapping her right foot. She must be waiting for him to apologize or something. Fuck if that will happen, he thought smugly as he cracked his knuckles in irritation.

 

He glanced at her again, thought this time through the corner of his eye. He hadn't really taken any time to gather in her appearance when he realized she was in his home. She's pretty, but really fucking annoying! Damn, how do I get myself in these positions? InuYasha growled at himself mentally. He hadn't figured out how the hell the wench named “Kagome”, had managed to find his home or, why the hell she was even here when he had first smelled her scent?

 

It didn't take him long, after she reminded him of the sentimental package he had sent to her. InuYasha had forgotten that his address would be printed on it. Its very delay explained why she was even bitterer towards him than what he would have expected. He did after all, nearly kill her and her little friend.

 

InuYasha eyed the girl. She honestly was very beautiful; he would admit that. He couldn't help but notice the long creamy legs the first time he ever set eyes upon her. Even if she was frantic. In that moment when he saw her and the little kid climb out of the jeep he had just crashed into, he felt like an ass. His heart was going a million miles a minute when he saw the blood all around her that day, yet she didn't even seem to notice.

 

The hanyou's thoughts trailed off to the first week of school after the accident. The whole time she wasn't present at school, he was nervous. Even though he had never met her, didn't even know her, he was scared. InuYasha had been more of an ass than normal, but the stupid people there didn't seem to care. They wouldn't care if he cut their throats. Keh pathetic, he thought.

 

He had almost killed someone and all because of a stupid bitch…

 

InuYasha and his ex-girlfriend Kikyou had gotten into (yet another) nasty fight that night. She went off on him, and he had left in a hurry. He was furious and raving the whole way as he left. When he came back… he found the stupid…well; she was `with' someone.

 

In a enraged fury, he left in his car. It was his entire fault. He could have killed the girl because he couldn't control his anger and his youkai was reacting. He and Kikyou weren't even together anymore, but every once in a while… It would never happen again; not after that.

 

InuYasha snapped back into reality and examined the girl before him. She was staring off into space, eyes wondering around the room. She seemed sort of uncomfortable, probably because she was just standing there in the silence of the moment. The hanyou couldn't help but notice something…

 

This human girl…Kagome? She had a slight resemblance to Kikyou. But there were some pretty obvious differences, he noted. This girl for example, her hair was much wavier and not as long, the color had a blue tint compared to Kikyou's jet-black locks. Her face was more bright and rounded, and her eyes more alive and innocent. She let hers flow free, but Kikyou always tied hers back.

 

Kikyou was beyond her years; she was even cold at times. She was distant.

 

This Kagome was not. She carried herself as if she was a woman of the wind, always lively and always changing. She had pride. She was very defiant. She wasn't… blank.

 

InuYasha sighed again. “What do you say we agree to disagree?” he reasoned, reclining into his seat on the couch.

 

Kagome jumped slightly at the sound of the hanyou's voice. She had be drowned in the awkward silence that had occurred between them. She hadn't been expecting the suddenness of his words, and was taken back. His words registered slowly in her mind, but she realized that he was being honest.

 

“Alright.”

 

 

 

 

And that's how it went. Kagome and InuYasha became civil. She left his home, having a slight feeling of accomplishment, and something else…something she really couldn't put her finger on. The whole ride home, she felt like she wasn't part of this world. She felt like she was on a cloud.

 

When she parked her car, she stayed in the driver's seat a moment. The engine was cooling and the radio off. She listened as the air conditioner made a slight ticking sound then quieted.

 

Kagome contemplated.

 

“That…was odd?” she said aloud. What was with this InuYasha fella? What about him burned her like no one else did? How could he make her so angry? How was it possible, that a boy she barely knew was capable of making her emotions fluctuate for rapidly? He was a demon, and yet… that had little to do with anything. She never hated demons, she was just weary… but only because of what happened before.

 

Shaking her head, Kagome decided it was time for a long shower and a phone call to Sango.

 

 

Kagome shivered when her skin touched the spray from the shower. Eep! Not quite hot enough yet! She thought instinctively as she pulled her hand back. She wrapped her towel more tightly around her, and boosted herself on the vanity to sit. There, she mused over the day's events.

 

She rally could not make heads or tails of InuYasha. He was so damn complicated. It was weird being in his house, screaming at him. But as odd as it was, she felt like she almost belonged there. Normally she would have completely held her tongue in someone else's (practically stranger's) home. She didn't feel intrusive; she just felt… well, she really didn't know how she felt!

 

Kagome peered over her shoulder to gaze into the mirror. She saw her ocean eyes, so odd for a Japanese teen, and soft creamy skin. She had spent most her summer in the sun, so her skin was kissed and tanned. Her lips and cheeks slightly pinker from the steam rising in the room. Steam?

 

The girl grumbled and left her seat to slip off her towel. She carefully pulled the shower curtain out of her way to turn the heat to a less intense temperature and climbed in. Kagome shivered slightly at the sudden change in heat, but relaxed once her skin was used to the spray.

 

She gathering her perfumed shampoo into her hands and began massaging it into her scalp. The movement were comforting, the scent relaxing. Her mind began to wonder again, right back to the face on the hanyou boy. An image of him appeared in her mind, and Kagome let out a heated sigh.

 

Why did such a asshole manage to make her like this? Was it pure attraction, or was there really just something about him that drew her to him? She had never felt like this before…

 

Kagome tilted her face towards the cascading water. Things are going to be weird…she thought momentarily, imagining how school and life in general would be from then on. Sighing, she continued with her bathing and finished ten minutes later with smooth legs and sweet smelling skin. She wrapped her slim and curvy body into her favorite fluffy towel before she walked out of the bathroom into cooler air.

 

Kagome ruffled her wet hair with the towel, getting all the remaining excess water. She was about ready to head down the hallway to her room when she heard a nock at the door. Grumbling, the raven-haired girl walked to the front door, towel and all.

 

Before her hand reached the knob, the door burst open.

 

“KAGOME!” Sango cheered, thrusting a shopping bag into the girls arms as she stepped into the house. Kagome blinked, not really sure how to react. Did Sango just come storming into my house? She sweat dropped and gave her friend a skeptical look.

 

“Sango? Um… what are you doing here?!” she said slowly, looking down at the bag. “What the-?”

 

“We're going dancing!” Sango called out, grinning ear to ear. Kagome's face looked horrified as she pulled the articles of clothing out of the bag that her friend had handed to her.

 

“Dancing? Are you sure you didn't mean STRIPPING?!”
