Summary: Kagome's quest for the jewel has finally ended, she made the jewel disappear without a problem, sent back to her own time after saying goodbye to her friends, and yet she couldn't stand being close to the well. So she decided to live off on her own, this only being her last year of high school. She wanted to stay close to her family, yet far enough for her not get saddened from memories. Her destination in mind being Ikebukuro, the place where she lived before her father died, she wanted it to be somewhere familiar, a place she had an attachment to.

Rating might go up, not sure yet.

Wow, it really has been a long time, a young girl thought, looking around the train station. I should probably call momma and tell her that I've arrived, she's probably worried to death, with that thought in mind, she went to a quieter place and called her mother with her cell phone.

Ring… Ring… Ring…

'Hello, Ms. Higurashi speaking' A woman, known as Ms. Higurashi, answered.

"Hey, momma." The girl said.

'Kagome, dear have you arrived there yet?' Ms. Higurashi asked. "Actually I just got here. I just wanted to tell you that." The girl, now identified as Kagome, answered.

'That's good dear, I wish you luck. Take care and try not to let anything get you down, alright.'

"Hai, momma and thanks. I should probably get going, I want to take a tour, see if anything changed or stayed the same."

'Alright dear, I love you and take good care of yourself.'

"I love you too momma. Bye"

'Bye, dear.' With those last words, Kagome hung up.

She sighed, looking around. It would seem like she would have to push her way through the crowd. It was rush hour, so of course the train station would be packed. She grabbed her bags and started to find the exit.

It only took her ten minutes. As soon as she was up the stairs she started to look around. Nothing has really changed since the last time she was there.

Her family used to live in Ikebukuro before her father died in a car accident; she was only thirteen at that time. She had a couple of friends here and there, but she only had one best friend. They knew each other since she was three years old; it was her next door neighbor. He was only five years older than her and he had a younger brother two years older than her.

She snapped out of her thoughts when she felt someone grab her hand, it was a boy around her age. He had blonde hair and brown eyes.

"Well hello beautiful! Never seen you around here before, are you new?" The boy said. Kagome blinked, he was really straight forward.

"Actually, I just got here." Kagome said. The boy just smiled even more.

"Welcome! Would you like me to give you a nice little tour? It would be bad if a cute girl like you got lost in this kind of place."

"Um, sure." Kagome said, she didn't really remember that much about this place. Luckily for her someone offered help, even if he was too flirty, he seemed like a good person. His aura gave it away.

"Great! My name is Masaomi Kida and my friend back here is Mikado Ryugamine." The boy, now identified as Masaomi, said pointing behind him. When he said this Kagome leaned towards the side to see the boy behind Masaomi, he was the same age as Masaomi, but he had black hair and grey eyes. He looked uncomfortable, embarrassed, he seemed to blush at her synchronizing gaze. Just watching him made Kagome want to hug him to death, he so cute. She looked away from him when she noticed she was staring. Then she remember something, she hasn't introduced herself.

"My name is Kagome Higurashi, nice to meet you both." Kagome said smiling at both of them.

"Cute name Kagome-chan. How about we start the tour and you tell us about yourself on the way." Masaomi said.

"Um, alright." With that said they started to walk.

"So where are you from Kagome-san?" This time it was Mikado who asked. "I came from Tokyo, but I use to live here a couple of years ago. I really forgot how to go around, so I pretty much need someone to show me."

"I see." Mikado said.

"Well Kagome-chan, you ran into the right people. I know this city like the palm of my hand. Just ask anything you wish and I'll answer it." Masaomi said with his goofy smile.

"Thank you Kida-san, Ryugamine-san." Kagome said.

"Now, now Kagome-chan. Don't be so formal, just call me Masaomi." Masaomi said waving his hand.

"Yeah, you can just call me Mikado as well." Mikado said with a blush.

"Alright Masaomi-kun, Mikado-kun." Kagome said.

They walked for a while, on the way she met a couple of Masaomi's friends, Kyohei Kadota, Saburo Togusa, Erika Karisawa, and Walker Yumasaki. They were nice people; Walker and Erika were entertaining to be around. She spoke with them for a while, but left to continue the tour. They stopped in front of a fountain to relax, yet when they got there she met with another friend of theirs, Anri Sonohara. She was a shy person, but Kagome knew they would get along. After she introduced herself, Anri said she had to go home and so she left.

An hour had barely passed by, so that meant it was 5 o'clock.

"Say Kagome-san?" Mikado said.

"Hmm" Kagome hummed in response.

"I don't mean to be rude, but what year are you in?" Mikado asked shyly.

"This is my last year of high school." She answered.

"That means you're two years older than us, Kagome-chan." This time it was Masaomi who spoke. "Really, I actually thought we were the same age." Kagome said having a thoughtful expression.

Masaomi was about to say something, but stopped when he saw a group of men running their way. They seemed to be frightened by something. The three of them just stood there watching the men pass by them, but what surprised them was a flying vending machine, which landed right on the group of men. At this Mikado was freaking out, so was Masaomi, they didn't want poor little Kagome to meet the devil, Shizuo Heiwajima.

"How about we go somewhere else, Kagome-chan?" Masaomi said nervously, Mikado just nodded in agreement.

Kagome wasn't paying attention to them. She just blinked at the scene before her, this looked familiar to her. Of course Mikado and Masaomi noticed this and hoped nothing would happen. They both looked to the side and noticed Shizuo walking towards the men.

Kagome was still staring at the poor people when she heard a gruff voice. "You bastards think you can just come and attack me without any consequences."

She looked towards the person speaking, which was a couple of feet away from her. She felt like she recognized that person, she made a thinking face and she thought, and thought, and thought. A light bulb went up in her head, she did know him.

Shizuo was still trying to catch his breath, bring his anger down. He just watched the cowards get up and run away with a few broken bones of course. As he turned to walk away he heard someone call him the forbidden name.

"Shizu-chan!"

Before he could turn and try to kill the person who called him by such a name, he felt someone hug him from behind. His posture stiffened, this was something new to him. People around were just shocked, the person who did that really wanted to die a painful death.

On the sidelines Masaomi and Mikado were panicking, they're practically having a heart attack.

"D-did K-Kagome-san just do what I think she did?" Mikado asked Masaomi. "I'm not sure, this might be some bad nightmare. One of the worst, where we watch Shizuo kill an angel!" Masaomi said panicking, which meant him going in circles around Mikado and his soul almost flying off.

There was eerie silence; no one made one move out of fear. When the person, who we now know is Kagome, let go of Shizuo, she just stood there with a big smile on her face, waiting for him to turn around.

Shizuo just stood there until the person let him go and then he thought about something; should he kill said person or just wait and see who it was. Since Shizuo hated to fight, he just turned around, what he saw surprised him. It was a young woman with black hair and blue eyes; which helped him recognize who it was; smiling up at him. He lifted his arms up, people held their breath expecting Shizuo to just grab her and throw her out of anger. But everyone was shell shocked by what he did, he hugged her. People actually fainted, believing the world was coming to an end.

Mikado by now was on the floor, he looked dead and if you looked closer you could see his soul flying off into the clouds.

"Kagome." Shizuo said, with some hint of happiness in his voice.

Kagome hugged him back, "It's been a long time, ne Shizu-chan."

Shizuo just sighed at the nickname but didn't say anything; he was used to it by now. She used to call him that when they were young and it stayed as they grew older. Of course he still wouldn't allow Izaya to call him that, only Kagome had that privilege. They broke away when they heard someone call Shizuo's name. It was Tom, his boss.

Tom was actually quite surprised by the scene he saw when he followed Shizuo. He expected to see chaos, but what he saw was Shizuo hugging a girl. Of course he didn't allow his shock to show. He just called out to Shizuo; he really wanted to know the story behind this.

"Hey." Shizuo said to Tom, turning around to face him. Kagome could be seen peeking behind Shizuo, trying to see who his friend was.

"So, who's your friend behind you Shizuo?" Tom said.

At this Kagome fully showed herself and smiled at him. "Nice to meet you, I'm Kagome Higurashi."

"Same here and my name is Tom Tanaka."

"So how do you know each other?" Tom asked. Everyone around them was curious about that.

"We're childhood friends." Shizuo simply said. With that he turned towards Kagome. "So why are you back?"

"I just felt like come back. I'm actually going to live here starting today." Kagome said happily. This surprised Shizuo, curiosity showing in his eyes. Kagome saw this, "I'll tell you later my other reason, but I have to get home. It's getting pretty late." She said looking at her watch.

"Where do you live?" He asked.

"It's the same place as before, momma never sold the apartment so it was pretty much left abandoned for a while." She said.

Shizuo smirked. "I guess we're going to be neighbors again.

"Really? You still live there?" She asked.

"Yeah, how about I walk you there." Shizuo said casually. "Um, sure" Kagome said. "Just let me go and tell Masaomi-kun and Mikado-kun thanks."

Shizuo nodded in response and went to tell Tom about him taking a break for the day.

"Hey, Masaomi-kun, Mikado-kun." Kagome said waving at them. Masaomi was better by now, but was still in shock. "Yes, Kagome-san?" Mikado said.

"I just wanted to come and say thanks for the help. Shizuo is going to walk me home now." Kagome said. "No problem. Well I guess we'll see around school." Mikado said happily.

"See you around Mikado-kun, Masaomi-kun." She said waving at them. By the time she left, Masaomi had snapped out of his shock.

Kagome just followed Shizuo, who was already walking away. They walked for a couple of minutes in silence, when Kagome spoke up. "You know something Shizuo?"

"Hmm" He hummed in reply.

"I really missed you." She said with a sad smile.

"I did too." Shizuo said with a rare smile crossing his face. They walked in peaceful silence after that, both taking in each other's presence.

Hope you guys enjoyed it. I was going to make it a one-shot but changed my mind and decided to make it longer.
