That's Just The Way It Is

Chapter 3

Dream Or Not?

<><><><><><><><> ;<><><>

"Okay so what your telling me is that you think Inuyasha kissed you last night, but your not sure if it was real or not?" Sango's voice said through the phone.

"Yes." I said back to her tiredly, it was the 5th time I had say yes, I guess her slow mind just didn't comprehend that. There was a long pause before she finally spoke up.

"Kag have you been smoking without me lately?" I rolled my eyes, leave it to her to be thinking about drugs at a time like this.

"I'm serious San, I mean what if it was real, What would I say, what would I do?" I was desperate and scared. I didn't know why I was scared, but I just was.

"Ok, ok just calm down. Lets see…um…maybe you should ask him?"

"WHAT?!" I yelled. What the hell was she thinking?! Yeah like I would just go up to Inuyasha and be like, hey last night did you kiss me, or was I dreaming?

"Ok never mind on that idea. Oh wait! Okay I have an idea, why don't you just observe him all today, like see if he leaves any hints that he did kiss you, see if blushes or anything, touch him, bump into him and see how he reacts!" Yes very good idea Sango…to bad I've been doing shit like that since I was 9! My mind yelled, but oh well might as well start it up again.

"Fine I guess I'll try it."

"Ok cool, well I got to go so talk to me later about what happened!" We both said bye and I hung up the phone. I looked down at the phone and sighed.

"Operation: Dream or not, starting now!"

<><><>

Really I thought this was going to be easy, but looks like easy wasn't on my side. All day I had been looking for a certain hanyou, that later I found out was on a errand. So I decided to take a walk through the city. Just when I was about to open my father's office room, I stopped and thought back on my "dream", I turned around and saw the door to where that man was killed. 'If it wasn't a dream then there would probably be blood stains or something, right?'

Walking in, I closed the door behind me and looked around the room. Nothing seemed out of place and when I looked at the floor, it seemed spotless. Sadly I let my shoulders droop.

"I guess maybe it was a dream. But wait…is someone was killed here, why would they leave a mess?" With that little hope, I went back to my father's office and went in. As usual I asked my father if I could go out and he insisted that I take a driver instead of a taking a car by myself, so I agreed, and here I was in the back seat of one of our many black SUV's.

"Um…Heideki?" I ask getting his attention.

"Yes Lady Kagome?" He asks back. I smile.

"I was wondering if you could just drop me off here and I'll meet you back here…say in a couple of hours…maybe just one or two?" He looks hesitant, but then smiles.

"Alright, anything for you." I nod my head and blow out a breath I didn't even know I was holding. The car comes to a stop and I get out. I look around to remember where I have to meet him and see that I'm in front of a Starbucks. I'm about to pass it when I stop and think for a minute.

"Starbucks?" With that said I walk into it and buy myself a chocolate muffin. Best damn muffins in the world.

<><><>

"So you think by getting the girl we can get her fathers business?" Asked a shadowed figure. The man next to him nodded, his long sliver-ish locks falling in front of him. His cold amber-gold eyes glaring at the man he was talking to.

"Kagome Higurashi is her name. She will be 18 this Friday and from what I hear she is going to go to the Shikon club with her friends. That is when we strike." The man nodded, his blue eyes amused at the information he just received.

<><><>

Boy was it hot. I thought and put my hair up in a loose bun. So far I had seen nothing that interested me and still no Inuyasha. I snorted to myself. Like I was going to find him in the middle of down town. Before I could say anymore, my eyes widen as I spotted someone with sliver hair walking my way.

"Holy crabby patties! It can't be?" I said aloud. Quickly I weaved in and out of people in my way and just when he was about to pass me, I flung my self into his arms. Not out of desperation, mind you, but just to make him stop before he went on. As I looked up I notice that this was NOT the man I expected to see,

"Excuse me?" He said in a cold yet collected voice. This man was way beyond Inuyasha. His face was more…feminine and he had a red crescent moon with purple marks on his face, meaning he was a full inu-youkai. And his body posture made him look like a lord of some sorts. The only thing he had in common to Inuyasha were his eyes and hair.

"OMG! I'm sorry, I thought you were someone I knew, Please Excuse me." I said quickly. He nodded and was on his way. I couldn't help but stare after him. "Wonder who he is?" I was about to start walking again when I heard a honk next to me. And there I saw Inuyasha on the driver side with the passenger side window open.

"Get in." He only said and I obeyed.

"How did you know I was here?"

"I didn't, your father called me, saying that the driver had come back without you and that you wanted to walk through the streets alone." I blushed for some un-known reason and couldn't say anything to that. "What were you doing with that man?" I heard him ask and looked at him strangely.

"What man?" His eyes never left the road as I saw his eyes narrow and his fist clench onto the steering wheel just a little too tightly.

"You know what man I'm talking about Kagome?" He said in a voice like I was his daughter and he reprimanding me. I rolled my eyes knowing now who he was talking about.

"I wasn't doing anything, not that its any of your business." I shot to him.

"To bad it is." He shot right back. "That man is your father's enemy." My eyes widened for a second time that day.

"My father's enemy? Why didn't he try anything on me then?"

"That's the same thing I'm asking? But what were you doing with him?" He asked again.

"I already told you, nothing. I was just walking down the street when I spotted him and thought he was-" I stopped abruptly. How the hell was I going to tell him that I thought it was him, then he'd ask why I was looking for him? Crap, he's gonna think I'm some love sick school girl.

"You thought what Kagome?" I cringed and thought of something, oh well I guess the truth never hurt anyone.

"I thought he was you, because I was looking for you." There happy I said it! I yelled into my head.

"And why were you looking for me?"

"And why are you asking so many questions?" I said out of frustration, or maybe to avoid that question. He stayed quite and didn't say anything for a while, much to my happiness. Ok maybe not that much happiness, Like I've said before, I hate to stay in silence for too long. "So where did you go?" I asked randomly.

"None of your business." Damn him.

"Ok then, sorry for trying to have a conversation." I said and hoped he could feel the sarcasm. Again it was quite and I couldn't help but fidget in my seat. That's when he spoke.

"Listen, about yesterday-"

"What?!" I interrupted, my heart beating faster then anything before. All I was thinking about was the kiss, did it actually happen and he was going to tell me how he's been in love with ever since he was 13? Or was he going to say it was just a mistake and that it should never had happened??

"Yesterday, you know, at the mall?" My heart sank instantly when he said that, and I could tell he noticed my saddened face, but he didn't comment on it and continued. "Well your father wants you to be apart of the business. I had told him how you handled yourself and he said that it probably would be for the better."

"What the? What the hell is he thinking? Why on God's green earth would he want me in the business? I know shit about drugs." Inuyasha gave a slanted glance that told he knew I was lying. "Ok maybe I know some." Again with the look. "Damn! Ok I know everything there is to know about drugs, but that still doesn't say anything?"

"He feels something is about to go down and that if anything with the cops happen, all he's gonna have is you." I looked at him like he grew a second head.

"What about you?" I asked quietly. He just shrugged his shoulders.

"Well if he goes down, I go down with him. At least you won't because you have no history, your just the daughter."

"Wow does that make me feel so much better." I said sarcastically and rolled my eyes. Did my father have some major explaining to do!

"So are you going to do it or not?"

"I dunno, this all to sudden and a little weird."

"Hey its not me asking, its your father, if you were my daughter I wouldn't even let you live in the same house as me, let alone do things like yesterday happen in font of your eyes." Again it hurt me when he said things like that…but wait? Did he mean what happen at the mall… or at home? I decided to try and see if yesterday was a dream or not.

"You know yesterday was the first time I ever seen my father kill someone." I said daringly and waited for him to say anything on it.

"I know I could tell, when you whipped out of the hallway like you were a madman." I gasped loudly and covered my mouth. I saw as his face paled and he just figured out what both he and I said. OMG!!!! Was all that was going through my head. HE DID IT….or WE did it, we actually kissed!!!

"S-so yesterday…it w-wasn't a dream?" I asked between shaky breaths.

"Think nothing of it, it was just a mistake." I blinked back the tears that threatened to fall, as the words left his mouth, the words I really did not want to hear. "I don't know what came over me, your like a little sister to me." Just with that, I let the dam break and my tears came flooding down. Good thing we were just down the street of our house because I opened the door and jumped out. I the fall was nothing and I quickly got up and started to run. In the background I could here Inuyasha calling my name, but I didn't stop.

<><><>

I was still running and when I finally got to my room and slammed it shut and locked it, I didn't need anyone seeing me now. I don't know how long but I cried and cried into my pillow, time and time again I heard different people knocking on my door, but I would scream at them to leave me alone. What felt like two hours later, I stopped crying and just laid on my bed looking at the ceiling. Slowly I went for the phone and picked it up. I dialed Sango's number.

"Hello Sango Taijya speaking?" I heard her voice say.

"Sango." I said or barley said as my voice was cracked.

"Kagome? What's wrong? Kagome are you ok?" I heard her yell, concern and worry evident in her voice. "Oh god Kag I'm coming over ok!" She said and she hung up. That's all I needed before sleep consumed me.

AN: Wow that was awfully short….sooo a bit happy that it wasn't a dream? Your probably mad because of what Inu said, but hey things get better, how? Oh you'll see. ^_^ PLEASE review…love to hear what you guys have to say!!
