Chapter one

Summary: Kagome Higarashi is a troubled teenage girl who feels no one really cares about her and so she resorts to cutting to hopefully make someone care about her. Inuyasha another troubled teenager meets Kagome and decides that he will be in her cutting group. But soon things turn out to be a bit more violent than Kagome originally planned.

It was a very nasty day with the wind blowing leaves all over Kagome's apartment home.

"Another day of school that will end in terrible sadness on my part" said a very depressed looking Kagome.

"Kagome School is going to start soon so get going" yelled Mrs. Higarashi from the downstairs living room.

"Fine, but cant you say anything like good morning at least?"

"No time school is going to start.

"Fine" said Kagome at last grabbing her coat and running out the door. 'Maybe ill just not go to school today ill just go to the park and sit there till school ends' thought Kagome 'no the school will call mom and ill get in trouble but at least somebody will care.' Kagome changed direction suddenly and found herself walking the opposite way of school to the park. 'I'll just sit here and draw or something until I hear the stupid school bell ring to go home.'

Kagome finally made it to the park and made a beeline for a bench that couldn't be seen from the street. 'Yes this is perfect no one will notice me here its to secluded.'

Suddenly out of nowhere ran a boy about seventeen with long silver hair and bright amber eyes. He looked as though he was from a fairytale with those features. He wore the regular style of big baggy black pants and a baggy red shirt that went down to his hips. He stopped a few feet from Kagome and saw a newspaper on the bench next to where Kagome sat. He ran up grabbed the newspaper and held it up so no one could see his face. Kagome just stared until a middle aged police cop ran past them ranting and raving about a stupid teenager and how he had to get to school.

"Hey thanks for not turning me in, by the way I'm Inuyasha and you are?" said the silver haired boy.

Kagome was flabbergasted and just stared at him. Inuyasha started to fidget under her intense gaze.

"Not one for talking are you?"

Kagome woke up from her state of shock and thought 'Why should he want to know about me? Maybe he cares who I am.' "ummmm…..My names Kagome and I am very pleased to make your aquatince" Said a very calm Kagome 'If I play my cards right he will maybe be my friend.'

"Oh cool are you skipping school too?"

"ummm….well yes I'm trying to find out if they will care enough to call my mom."

"hmmm…..I see well I have to get going or that dumb ass police ciop will find me and boy will I be in trouble" said Inuyasha as he got up and waved goodbye and ran the opposite way the police cop went.

Kagome sat there and wondered if she would ever see him again.
