*Kagome ran as fast as she could up the stairs of the shrine she lived in with her Mother and brother, reaching the door and slamming it open. Startled her mother poked her head from where she was searching for Christmas decorations.

"Oh, hi Kagome!" her mother greeted.

Kagome smiled nervously ripping off her jacket and pealing off her waitress uniform as she moved up the stairs.

"Mom, I can't talk now! I'm gonna be late!!" she replied tossing the last of her uniform off and belting in to her room.

"Aren't you going to have something to eat?" her mother asked pulling the box of decorations from the cupboard.

"Umm…later!" Kagome bellowed from her bedroom.

Kagome's mom sighed and shock her head `Young love…' she thought with a smile.

Kagome continued to rush to get ready for her date with Houjo-kun; she pulled at her hair band and let her hair flow onto her shoulders. She wrinkled her nose at the state of it, pushing it back with one movement of her hand and sighing contently when it looked somewhat tidy. She turned to her wardrobe and picked out a pair of black jeans and white shirt rushing to get them on when she heard Houjo's car pull up in the drive, honking at the horn to let her know of his arrival. She smiled and rushed from her room down the stairs passing her mother.

"Bye mom!"

With that she was out of the door in a flash, running down the stairs of the shrine entrance and opening the door of the car to meet with her boyfriend.

She welcomed him with a small kiss and smiled, "I missed you"

Houjo kissed her back and faulted a smile in return, "You missed me since what, yesterday?" he questioned nervously.

Kagome looked up at her boyfriend's nervous expression. "Mhmmn, why not?" she smiled sweetly.

Houjo looked down away from her face and coughed slightly.

"Is there anything wrong?" Kagome questioned him.

"No, umm… what do you wanna do?"

"Aren't we going to the mall?"

Houjo fidgeted slightly under her gaze, "…do you just wanna…maybe go some other time?" he murmured.

Kagome's smile disappeared, "you…you don't wanna see me any more…" she closed her eyes trying not to let her tears sting at her eyes.

"No, its not that…I mean…its just, I dunno…maybe…we should start seeing other people" he faulted slightly.

Kagome snorted at him and continued to shake her head. "Why does this always have to happen to me, I let myself get involved and always end up getting hurt…" she whispered letting the tears flow freely.

"Kagome…"

"What did I do that was so wrong?" she interrupted him.

"Kagome, don't say that. You didn't do anything wrong." He tried to reassure her opening his arms to embrace her.

Kagome pushed away from him, "No!"

He reached out for her once more, "Kagome, come here…please…don't cry"

She gave into his comforting and dove into his chest sobbing. After a few minutes she stopped and pulled away from him slightly, "I'm going inside…"

Houjo looked down at her, "Why…why don't I call you later?"

"No, don't. Leave me alone, Houjo!" she snapped and slammed the door of his car, running back into the shrine house.

Houjo closed his eyes and sighed, "I never meant to hurt you," he whispered after her retreating figure.

*Kagome opened the door of the shrine and looked over at her mother, who was decorating the Christmas tree. She smiled through her tears and ran past her making her way up the stairs pushing past Souta.

She reached her bedroom and slammed the door shut diving under her covers of her bed, sobbing into her pillow.

*That morning was going to be one of the worst shifts she'd ever had to work. She sighed and continued to clean one of the tables at the diner she worked at part-time. Her best friend, Sango looked up at her with worry. "Did he say why?" she asked Kagome quietly.

Kagome sighed once more, "He just said we should start seeing other people."

"He's a jerk!" Sango snorted, "he could have at least told you why!"

"Forget it, Sango. I don't feel like talking about it anymore"

"Talk about what?" came another voice.

"Houjo broke up with Kagome" Sango explained to the boy who was now sitting at the clean table with them.

"Houjo? Was that the one with the limp?" he asked.

"No, that was Kouga, Miroku. Houjo was the one with the sick mother…" Sango replied

"No" Kagome interrupted, "that was Hiroku and his mother got better and that's when he dumped me."

Miroku nodded remembering this now. "So, he's the one with the limp?"

"No" Kagome replied once more, "Houjo is the jerk with the flashy car and leather jacket."

"Ah…I'm sorry to hear this Kagome-sama." Miroku comforted her, before slipping his hands under the table and getting a sour look from both females. He smiled and removed his wondering hands.

Kagome couldn't take it anymore, no matter how much she denied hurting or not wanting to talk to him she had to at least ask him why, like Sango had mentioned. He owed her at least that. "I'm going to call him," she announced to her friends.

Sango jerked up from giving Miroku another threatening glare, "No! Don't you DARE! What's wrong with you girl!?! Let him go, he's not worth jack-shit!"

Kagome sighed and dropped her head in defeat. "But…"

Miroku smiled and leaned over to rub Kagome's shoulder, "Kagome-sama, you are to good for him. You got to learn to put your foot down once in a while"

Kagome laughed bitterly, "Why is it that none of the guys I date actually want me!?"

"Come on girls! This place won't run its self!" Kaede, the manager of the diner yelled at the two.

Miroku coughed and started to look at his menu, while Sango took his order. Kagome got up and walked over to her boss.

"I don't feel so good, Kaede. May I go home early this afternoon?"

Kaede smiled and nodded, "That means you work extra shift tomorrow"

Kagome nodded in reply and said her goodbyes before leaving Sango and Miroku to fight over what a `Tip' was. Not that she really wanted to know what kind of `Tip' Miroku wanted to give Sango, she smiled just thinking of the perverted guy who obviously had a crush on her best friend.

*Inuyasha looked on at the two females and male talking around one of the customer tables, his sensitive hearing picked up what they were discussing. Kagome's latest boyfriend had broken her heart. He sighed; this was something he had gotten used to. Kagome didn't have very much luck with relationships.

When he heard Kaede agree to her having the rest of the afternoon off he smiled at the elder ladies compassion and looked on long after Kagome left the diner, ignoring Kaede's shouts to move his behind back in to the kitchen.

Chapter 2.2 - {She made her way back into the kitchens calling over the noise for Inuyasha, she gasped when she found him. "Oh…Inuyasha you cut yourself! Gods this is pretty deep, you're gonna need stitches" she told him gathering his hand into hers and inspecting it.

Inuyasha frowned and pulled his hand away from her. "No it's fine, you put me off is all wench"

Kagome stuck her hands on her hips in annoyance to his rudeness "Inuyasha! What are you talking about, I said you need it looked at!"} (Warning -chapter 2 contains scenes of mature content.)

Author notes: *I've actually completed this story it's written up already except for the odd chapters that are side stories. So reviews will help upload the chapters quicker rather than holding on waiting ^_^ If you want more and seem interested in this review for me, helps get the chapters out quicker. My typing skills are fast like I said this story is completed on paper… oh and how many of you want to read the lemon/lime scenes? There are two in this particular fic.

More More or Continue continue always makes me smile *wink wink* (don't kill me for making Kagome `like' Houjo (Hojo) this was just the beginning we get into the plot when we get more Inuyasha scenes. Oh and this by the way does follow somewhat the basic plot to `Untamed Heart' a very sad movie, but this `might' not turn out sad unless you all want sad then I can give you sad I'm an Angst writer so…)
