Slowly Kagome opened her eyes. The first thing she noticed was the roof of the room; it was the color of Tokyo's sky in the first day of the spring. Nothing could look cleaner than the smooth blue of the horizon.

 

She just had an interesting dream. She dreamed that Inuyasha was reincarnated and turned out to be her roommate; in the dream he was again someone else's.

 

Pathetically as it was, she refused to believe that the dream was none other than her current situation of life itself. Sweet Kagome was blocking her sense of reality. It just had to be a dream then only nightmares could be so cruel.

 

It was a dream, a state of delusion of a bleak, yet sweet reunion; she kept telling herself again and again. She had gone through so much in her life; what kind of god would plan such destructive fate, she wondered. It just had to be-

 

“Wench, finally awake?”

 

And she was out again.

 

~*~

 

Kin shook his head in disbelief and exited his room.

 

Mai came up to him immediately. “How is she? Is she alright?”

 

“She's out again.” Kin shook his head. “Seriously, has your friend a severe case of anemia? She passed out on me twice.”

 

“Well, you ogled her lustily all the time; maybe that's why she fainted on you. Like I said before; Kagome is a gentle creature.”

 

“I didn't ogle her!” Kin yelled. To his dismay he could feel a rising heat of a blush.

 

“O my God!” Mai was studying him in disgust. “It's like you're thirteen again.” She shook her head. “Remember when you had a crush on our busty math teacher, Inuyasha? How your mom was so shocked to find her son entering a national math contest?”

 

“Shut the fuck up!” He yelled at her.

 

“Okay.” She giggled. And then she looked at her watch. “Oops I must go; Takeshi-kun is waiting for me. Bye, Inu!” She kissed his cheek and sauntered out of the room.

 

“It's Inuyasha!” He growled, annoyed.

 

Kin then turned and entered his room. He studied the form lying in his bed. How her thick lashes swept down her smooth cheek, sweet, flushed lips cutely moaning something incomprehensible, her chest softly heaved up and down, her gentle scent teasing his nose, and the pressing tent in his pants. `Fuck.'

 

He went out and took care of a small pressing business.

 

~*~

 

Kagome woke up hearing a distinct ring of a cell-phone. Mistaking it as hers, she picked up the cell-phone and managed a hoarse, “Hello?”

 

There was silence on the other line.

 

After a few moments, a voice scathingly replied. “Who is this?”

 

Kagome frowned. Somehow the voice sounded familiar. “Who is this?”

 

“Where's Kin!?” The voice on the phone practically screamed at her.

 

She groaned and then closed the speaker. “Oh, shit!” She whispered softly.

 

Kagome scrambled out of the bed and went out of the room to find her new roommate. She found him in the kitchen, cooking something she could clearly identify without looking in the pot. It was not the aroma of the ramen that gave it away; it was how he waited patiently before the pot and stared at it as if it was his own private heaven.

 

And since when had she decided that he was indeed Inuyasha? But there was no denying it now, because everything he did was so like him, painfully so. Even the way he intently stared at the ramen with his patent stance and crossing arms was so characteristically him.

 

A shrill scream from the phone brought her out of her daze. Kagome quickly went up to him and silently handed him the phone. He looked at her in daze and then stared at the phone.

 

“Sorry.” Kagome murmured apologetically; his girlfriend was going to give him hell.

 

Kin gazed between the phone and the cooking ramen; he really had no idea what to do. Kagome took pity on him and motioned him to move away so that she could help him with the ramen. Kin smiled gratefully at her. Kagome could really imagine how grateful he was as a tiny smile tugged at the corner of her lips.

 

His gratefulness didn't last long though. He never knew what hit him the moment his girlfriend screamed at him. The next moment he found himself throwing the cell-phone away and crouched down to the floor holding both hands to his ears.

 

Kagome immediately went up to him and helped him to his feet.

 

“You're okay?” Kagome asked him softly; her hands were rubbing his ears tenderly.

 

Kin leaned forward towards her gentle ministrations to his ears. “They've always been sensitive.” He explained with his eyes closed.

 

Realizing that it had been she who had handed him the phone, he pulled away slightly. “What was that all about?”

 

Kagome bit down her lip, a habit she did when she was nervous. She didn't notice how Kin's eyes darted towards her lips and darkened a bit.

 

“I,” Kagome tried to explain, “answered your phone, and then the voice on the line was silent when she heard my voice.” She continued hastily. “I thought it was my phone; the ring tone was the same as mine. That's why I answered it, and when she asked me who I was and I asked her back, I guess she thought that I was-” She couldn't complete her sentence.

 

Kin groaned. “Fuck.”

 

Kagome looked down. An old feeling engulfed her. She had used to feel guilty when she had kept him away from his lost love, just as she somehow felt guilty now.

 

“Hey.” She suddenly felt his finger under her chin, softly persuading her to look at him. “Are you alright?”

 

Kagome looked up at him in puzzlement.

 

“You fainted on me twice.” He stroked her chin tenderly.

 

Kagome was surprised at his gentle behavior towards her. Was this guy really Inuyasha? Suddenly she clasped her hand to her mouth. “Inuyasha, your ramen!”

 

Kin blinked when she called him Inuyasha, he didn't think that the girl would proceed to be familiar towards him almost immediately. Seeing her rushing to the kitchen, her words began to dawn on him.

 

“My ramen!” He shrieked in a volume that would certainly put his girlfriend's scream to shame.

 

~*~

 

“You're sure you don't want any?”

 

Kagome nodded.

 

Kin looked at the ramen in the bowl and to her. “You want other flavor, maybe?”

 

Kagome shook her head. “I can't eat ramen.”

 

“You can't-” Kin gaped. “You don't like ramen!?” He put the question as if she had, in his belief, ventured a great sin.

 

Kagome sighed. “There were times when I had to eat ramen everyday for about two whole months.”

 

“So what you're trying to say is…” He still had this bewildered look on his face.

 

“You'll never understand it, as crazy as you are about this noodle.” Kagome growled.

 

“E? How did you know-”

 

“Your noodle's getting cold.” She interrupted him.

 

Normally this statement would compel him to begin eating almost instantly, but now he reluctantly picked up his chopsticks from the table and began to eat slowly. He paused and put down his chopsticks.

 

“But you must eat.” He said worriedly. “You probably haven't eaten anything yet.”

 

“I'm planning to eat out.” Kagome said and got out of her chair.

 

“I'm coming with you.” He said, surprising Kagome.

 

If only she knew how his statement had surprised even him himself; Kin never, and he never really did, left his ramen uneaten.

 

~*~

 

They found a small sushi shop near the dorm. And as Kin plopped a grilled scabbard fish sushi inside his mouth, he heard a familiar voice calling out to him.

 

Kagome, who had went to the bathroom to wash her hands, came back to see a most shocking scene in front of her.

 

Now she knew why the voice on the phone was familiar. And she had now evidence why gods hated her.
