Just What She Needs

Chapter 1: Big Decisions Come With Consequences

It was mid afternoon at the Higurashi shrine. The shrine was rather large and looked like a mansion, with perfect green grass, flowers, trees, and a small pond in the backyard where her mother's garden was.

The Higurashi were a wealthy family, and like all wealthy families, her mother arranged her to marry someone she didn't love or know.

Filled with rage, she did the only thing she could think of. She refused, wanting nothing to do with the man she had chosen. He had short dark brown hair, with brown eyes, and pale skin. His name was Hojo Hisaki.

Why her mother chose him as a suitor, was because his family was also wealthy. In the world of wealth and status, the rich only cared about one thing, social status and power.

Hojo's family owned a hospital, her family owned a clothing line, her mother was a fashion designer, designing clothes of all kinds. Her mother was outraged when she refused to marry Hojo. The man was whimpy looking, he had no muscles what so ever, and his voice even sounded whimpy; not only that but he was way too nice. He kept giving her gifts that she could do without.

He kept asking her on dates, and she like always kept making up excuses on why she can't go.

"Kagome, you will make this family proud and marry Hojo." Her mother said sternly.

It was obvious she wasn't happy with her answer. When she had said no, she fucking meant no.

"I will not." Kagome snapped narrowing her sapphire blue eyes.

Unlike her brother Souta she had inherited her father's looks, midnight black blue hair, sapphire blue eyes and bronze coloured skin. It was not common for such features on a Japanese girl. But here she was, in sweet perfection.

She had a supermodel body that put women to shame. She had a erotic beauty about her that most women would kill for.

Her mother snarled, if she was a demon she would have bared her fangs. If she was anyone else she would have been shaking in fear. She wasn't the type of girl to show much emotion, or at all really. Everyone that knew her called her ice queen.

"Kagome I will not have you tarnish this family by turning down this arranged marriage. You are old enough to get married. If you refuse I will disown you, and any family fortune this family has will be cut off from you." Her mother's cold voice growled out.

Kagome kept her head high, her body straight and tense. A deep frown on Kagome's lips almost seemed to be constantly permanent. When was the last time she had smiled? When had she heard herself laugh or act like herself around others? She had forgotten what her laugh even sounded like.

"No." Kagome sternly said, her voice cold like ice.

Her mother narrowed her eyes angrily. "You've just shamed this family. You are to be out by morning, make sure to pack everything you own. From this moment further you are no longer my daughter." Her mother said coldly before she walked off.

If Kagome were anyone else she would have burst with tears right now. But she wasn't, she wouldn't allow her mother the satisfaction of her tears. When was the last time she cried? She couldn't remember.

Swiftly moving herself from where she stood, she gracefully walked up the stairs. Taking two black suitcases, she packed her clothes, her accessories, her CD's and movies, her books, her laptop etc…

Her black touch screen then lit up with a buzz. She looked down at the screen to see who it was.

When she saw Charlie Swan, she smiled. It was her uncle, how nice. She read his message. He had told her that Bella had gone into a deep depression after her boyfriend Edward broke up with her. He wanted her to come to Forks to cheer her up.

Kagome really liked Bella, she was like her own sister, well a sister she never had. They were rather close, and told each other everything.

She replied saying she would be there as soon as she could.

With that, she put her suitcases into the trunk of her Jaguar, she got into the driver's seat then drove off. Within ten hours(don't ask me I don't know how many hours Tokyo is from Forks, Washington, but in my story it's ten hours. Hah) she arrived in front of a two story white house. In the driveway was a rather ugly orange pickup truck that she figured to be Bella's, and a black and white police car parked near the street.

"Kagome! It's really good to see you! It's really been too long." Charlie said with a grin.

Kagome gave a small smile, which was the most you would get out of her anyway.

"It was my pleasure. My mother kicked me out, so I came as soon as I could. She wanted me out by morning, but now she doesn't have to worry now. She disowned me for refusing to marry some guy she chosen." Kagome explained with a frown.

Charlie frowned, "My god! Has Suki have no shame? To kick her eighteen year old daughter out… are you sure you're okay?"

Kagome wondered if she was okay. Or if she was just now living a harsh reality. She knew she would have to leave her home someday. But at eighteen seemed a bit much. Souta would most likely be heartbroken that she didn't say goodbye to him or even explain why she left.

Kagome loved her little brother, even if she didn't show it on her face.

"Yes I'm fine, thanks for worrying uncle. Where is Bella?" Kagome said softly.

"Oh she's at Jacob's. I'm sure she'll be back later. Please come in!" Charlie said motioning her to follow him.

She walked into the house, where he brought her upstairs to the last bedroom they had. It was the spare room that Charlie never used. He didn't get many guests over, and even if he did they always slept on the couch.

The room was painted purple, one of her favourite colors. The bed had black sheets, with black and purple comforter, the curtains were also purple but a lighter shade. There was a tall wooden dresser on the left side of the room, a small end table next to the bed.

"I hope this room is good enough for you. When I texted you earlier, I had this room ready for you when you got here. Bella doesn't know you're here yet, she wasn't home at the time." Charlie said standing at the doorway.

Kagome smiled, "This room's great uncle."

He nodded, without another word he walked back downstairs. Another thing about her uncle that she loved so much, he doesn't hover.

For many years she had wondered why she was related to American's. Then she remembered that her father was American. His name was Jayce. He had married her mother, but when she was five he divorced her for another woman. She never learned who that other woman was. She could definitely see why her father left her mother. Her mother was a complete bitch.

It was around midnight when Bella got home. So Kagome went to greet her at the door. Bella seemed shocked to see her, Charlie had long since gone to sleep since he had to work early in the morning.

"Kagome… what are you doing here?" Bella asked astonished.

"I just got here today. I heard about the break up… are you okay?" Kagome said bringing Bella into a hug.

Bella sighed, it was a sound that sounded so heartbroken. Kagome knew that Bella would never be okay. What she had with Edward, was a bond that was powerful enough to leave Bella mentally wounded. Kagome wanted to pissed that he did this to her cousin. But she couldn't. After all she had went through the same pain Bella is going through four years ago. That was when Sesshomaru broke up with her, only to announce to her that he was marrying some woman named Sara.

At that time Kagome was heartbroken. She wanted to kill Sesshomaru for what he had done to her. He had taken her heart and stomped it into the ground. Since that time, she hadn't felt another emotion, her eyes that used to be so full of life, were now cold as ice. Her lips that were in a constant smile were now in a constant frown.

"You will get through this, Bella." Kagome said with a sigh of her own.

"I don't know if I can, Kagome. I loved him…" Bella whispered.

Kagome nodded, she knew that feeling. She had vowed to herself that she would never fall in love again. It was a needless and unwanted feeling.

"I'm here for you now, Bella. All you need to do is move on. It's not easy believe me I know. But you need to move on to someone who will treat you like a queen." Kagome said with a small smile.

Bella chuckled, "Easier said than done Kagome…"

With that Bella and Kagome went to bed, waking up the next morning, to some short girl with blackish brown hair, honey gold eyes, and deathly pale skin. She looked like a pixie.

"A-Alice?" Bella's voice sounded from behind her, shocked.
