DEVL: Ahem, crystaltears is not available at the moment, so here I am. I know, I know, you're disappointed huh. But oh well, that's just too bad for you, because I'm writing this chapter whether you like it or not. Thanks and have happy readings!

Ok, now wanna hear the REAL reason why I'm so happy and crystaltears is not here? Well…first off, it's my bday! And I got a surprise party and my permit! Which means…you guessed it, I can FINALLY drive! Now, onto the part you actually care about, crystaltears is on vacay, she will be back in a month. When she gets back, I'll be gone, so she's the one that'll write the next chapter.

Thanks for all those reviews!

Sangome: Yup, the invisible string is pulling you right now. Heh, we're evil.

Hm…it seems like there's not much to respond, oh well, read on! Oh yeah, one more thing, my writing style's different than crystaltears, so this chapter might be a little different than what you normally read.

Forgive and Forget

&

She wanted to look back, she really did. But Kagome couldn't, not after what he's done, all he's done.

There were whispers around the hall, but she and Sango ignored them. They headed straight towards the library, a nice and peaceful place. When they got there, all eyes darted on them.

"Oh great," Sango sighed. "Do you all just have to stare at us?" She yelled.

The eyes looked back to the table.

"C'mon Kagome." Sango sat her down on a chair and set an apple in front of her, "Eat."

Kagome stared at the apple, her brain wasn't processing. He had been right there; so close, he was going to say something. Should she let him do that? Right now, all she wanted was to be with him again, why did that sound so wrong?

"Oh Kagome, you poor thing, you have to at least eat something." Sango looked at her worriedly.

Kagome closed her eyes, she felt like crying.

"Kagome." Sango whispered, "Kagome."

That's when she heard her voice, her head tilted up to Sango.

"Kagome, you gotta eat, you haven't eaten since…well, that day."

She slowly shook her head and got out of the chair. She ignored all the yells from Sango and the eyes from the students, and walked quickly towards the bathroom. She couldn't handle this.

"I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears."

Tears started dripping down her face once she got to a stall. She sat there, quietly crying. On the inside, she was screaming. How could she be so stupid? It was all her fault. If she didn't say yes, she wouldn't feel like this. Why did she get herself into this?

"And if you have to leave,

I wish that you would just leave."

The tears began flowing more freely. The screams turned into whispers. "Inuyasha. I hate you. I freakin' hate you. Why? Why did you do that?"

"Cause your presence still lingers here,

And it won't leave me alone."

&

Inuyasha heard her run away. Why didn't he chase after him? He was such a stupid, cold hearted bastard. She'll probably hate him forever now.

That's when Inuyasha realized something, "Oh shit."

&

"These wounds won't seem to heal,

This pain is just too real."

Kagome heard the bell ring. She has never skipped class before, but this can be an exception. Kagome got out of the stall and looked at herself.

"There's just too much that time cannot erase."

Before the mess, she was a happy girl, enjoying everyday life. Now look at her, crying over some boy, who is she? Where's the real her?

"When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears."

She continued staring at herself, when the second bell rang for class to end. Kagome wiped her tears; she couldn't be like this forever. Be brave and act like nothing happened, yeah, that's it, that's what she's going to do.

"When you scream I'd fight away all of your fears."

She straightened herself and walked out the door. Her nose and eyes were still a bit puffy. She walked into her next class, Inuyasha was in that class. She sat in her seat behind Inuyashas; her eyes were darted straight at the board.

"And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me"

When Inuyasha came in, she tried her best not to look at him. Inuyasha sat in his seat, turned around, and looked at her.

Stop looking at me! Her mind was screaming. In reality, she wanted to look at him too, oh, she wanted to look at him so bad. But of course, she couldn't.

"Listen Kagome." Inuyasha said in nearly a whisper, his golden orbs still on her.

"Ok, time for class." The teacher walked in the room.

Inuyasha sighed and turned his attention back to the teacher. He then took out a piece of paper and scribbled something on it and passed it to Kagome.

Her heart was pumping, she slowly opened the paper and it wrote messily, 'I'm sorry, I really am, I feel like shit.'

Kagome scoffed out loud to make sure he heard this. After all that and all he can do is say he's sorry and feel bad about himself? She was truly an idiot to believe that he was good.

She wrote back, 'Well, I don't give a shit.'

After that, it was anther quiet class.

&

The last bell of the day rang. Inuyasha quickly grabbed his stuff and ran to the front of the school, he was looking for Kagome.

Kagome was walking slowly on the side walk.

"You used to captivate me by your resonating light."

Inuyasha walked closer to her, just when he was about to speak, she walked faster.

"Kagome…" He tried.

"Now I'm bound by the life you left behind."

It didn't work. He didn't expect it to, after all he's done. Did it truly hurt her that much though? He didn't want to hurt her; it was just a joke, or at least it was supposed to be a joke.

"Kagome…" He said in a near whisper.

"Your face it haunts, my once pleasant dreams."

If only she would listen to him. If she did, maybe she wouldn't be mad. Maybe she'll forgive him and they can start fresh. Just maybe…He had to keep his hopes up, even though deep down inside, he knew he ruined the chance of being with her.

Inuyasha was so desperate that she grabbed Kagome's wrist. Kagome just simply dangled it away and started running.

"Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me."

Inuyasha chased after her. "Kagome. Please wait."

"These wounds won't seem to heal."

"Why should I wait Inuyasha?" Kagome said moodily, not turning to face him.

"This pain is just too real."

"Please…" He desperately tried running after him.

"There's just too much that time cannot erase."

"Oh, so now you're desperately 'please'ing?"

"When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears."

"If you would just listen."

"When you scream I'd fight away all of your fears."

"No Inuyasha, I've listened enough."

"And I held your hand through all of these years."

"This will be the last time, I swear."

"But you still have all of me."

"Last time you swore, you said you wanted to show me a good time."

"I tried to hard to tell myself that you're gone."

Inuyasha didn't know what to say. It was the truth, he did say that. Why did everything he say have to turn back on him? Why can't it just be in the past?

"But that wasn't it was it?"

"It's because…" He tried explaining.

"And though you're still with me."

Kagome stopped in her tracks and turned around. Her eyes were filled with water, she was going to cry. "It's because of your big ego. Admit it Inuyasha. Your ego got in the way and that's the last straw, I won't take anymore shit from you…ever!" She let a tear slip from her eye.

"I've been alone all along."

"Kagome…" It hurt him on the inside to see her cry, had he caused this? All the pain, all the anger. He couldn't handle it anymore, so he grabbed her arms and pulled her into a tight hug.

"Get away from me!" Kagome pushed Inuyasha on the chest; it caused him to trip and fall. Kagome looked down at Inuyasha and shook her head slowly, then started walking away again.

Inuyasha quickly got up and followed her. "Kagome, wait!" He yelled dreadfully.

Kagome turned around again and stomped towards him, she then slapped his left cheek, hard. She meant it. "No Inuyasha, I won't listen, get away from me, from my life. I don't want to see you ever again!"

"All of me."

Inuyasha left it as that and watched as Kagome stomped off to her house. Was this really the end? They hadn't even began.

&

"Kagome, you have a message." Her mom called as she walked into the door.

"I'll listen to it later," Kagome slowly got off her shoes and started walking upstairs, her mom stopped her. "I think it's important."

With no choice, she went to the living room and saw that there was one new message. She clicked the play button.

"Hey Kagome, this is Inuyasha."

Every time she heard his name, she wanted to cry.

"I know you're mad at me right now, more like pissed off. But before you delete this message I need to tell you something. This something I'll probably never be able to tell you again. I…I really like you Kagome."

Kagome scrunched her eyebrows together, does he really mean it? It sounded a bit fake. Like? There was no such thing. And what's the difference between love and lust?

"I realized this during lunch," Inuyasha laughed a bit after this. Even with all the laughter, Kagome could see that he was not happy at all. "And I just wanted to tell you this before I couldn't. I understand if you don't want to give me a chance. I screwed up all my chance with you didn't I?"

There was more light laughter.

"Well, I just wanted to say…"

CLICK

Kagome didn't want to hear any of this anymore. She just couldn't handle it. He embarrassed her in front of the whole school and now he wants forgiveness? Something like this could never be forgiven, it could never be forgotten.

MESSAGE DELETED

Forgiving and Forgetting was not an option.

DEVL: Ok, that was a…VERY pointless chapter, but what could I do? Crystaltears told me to write and said don't put any fluff. I know she's planning something in the next chapter, but right now, there's no way of contacting her, so I don't know what to put and not put in this chapter. Hopefully, it didn't interfere with any of her plans. I made it as less moody and important as possible. If only she told me what to write in this chapter, lol.

Oh well, hope you enjoyed this chapter…probably not, but that's ok! Just leave a review, cause it was my bday yestesterday! Lol.
