Chapter Two: Sin

You'll fall again

And it will feel so fast

And every single fear you thought would last

It'll pass

And you'll fall again

And it'll feel so fast

And every single fear

And Every single fear

Will pass

It was difficult to say, but it had to be said. "I have to leave you." I whispered. I felt his eyes stare at me and I didn't dare look at his face. I was scared to see what his eyes would say--they never hid a thing from me. Is it a crime to have broken the rules of our game? I'm sure that for a fact his reason of plea was because of his male ego.

Just like the time with Sesshomaru...

Inuyasha was furious as he grabbed my arm in the middle of the hallway. "What the fuck, Kagome?" He asked blaring down at me. The students around my locker looked at us and whispered to themselves. Without a doubt, everyone by the end of the day will know what happened. I forced my arm from his hard grip. "What are you bitching about this time, Inuyasha?" I asked annoyed.

"Do you have to ask? My brother--Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha asked.

I managed to somehow hold his gaze this whole entire time and replied, "That's none of your business. What I do and who I date shouldn't matter to you!"

"Well it fucking does!" Inuyasha yelled.

The people around us stopped and stared. You see, Inuyasha and I don't really talk that much in school. We had our own little world--I was the nice, sweet girl--excelling in everything she does. He was the popular jock, son of the Executive Administrator. I was captain of my teams, in the top ten of my class, multi-talented and organized. He was the captain of his teams, sly, and lazy. We had but a few things in common, but for one thing...I see what other don't see in him.

Inuyasha looked around and breathed deeply. "You're such a tease, Kagome." He said under his breath, looking at anything but me.

He had stepped back, his brows furrowed together. I didn't get him at all. It was frustrating me to no end.

"You and I have nothing." I managed to say evenly, "We've tried, but the only thing that works is this...this scandalous thing between us! I'm tired of being 'friends with benefits'!" I breathed out.

I finally said it. What I had been dying to tell him all these months.

"Sesshomaru is a good guy. He has done nothing but care for me--"

"Suit yourself--make sure you invite me to the wedding." He said with sourness and turned around walking, yet again, away from me.

I see what other don't see in him.

I watched his back turned away from me as he made his slow walk to his next class. He was a leader, without a doubt, and his tall physique made him stand out even more. However...

He's nothing but a lonely little child.

...and children need to grow up. I looked at him now. Inuyasha was evidently confused and so I repeated it, "I have to leave you." I said, "I start college the month you come back. Haven't we talked about this...? Like I said, we don't have anything...so don't ask such silly questions."

"You're lying." He replied.

What?

"Excuse me?" I asked.

"I said, you're L-Y-I-N-G." Inuyasha inunciated, "Because Sango told me everything."

Sango?
