He Broke my Heart

Disclaimer: I don't own the song "Listen To Your Heart" by D.H.T. I don't own Inu Yasha either! So ha! This disclaimer goes through the whole story. For every, single, chapter.

I have no idea where this is going but here I go.

Chapter 1: He Broke my Heart

_________________________________________

I know there's something in the wake of your smile.

I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.

Maybe it was the perfume she smelled on his shirts when she threw his shirts in the laundry, maybe it was all the time he spent at work these days, maybe it was his credit card bills telling her he spent more than usual these past months.

Maybe it was all of those things.

Her worries were put away one day when Kagome came home, only to find her boyfriend on their couch with another girl waiting for her.

He looked at her with his purple eyes; she always loved his eyes she could always read them, what she saw in them hurt. His eyes betrayed what he was thinking; "We're over. I've moved on, I'm sorry, but I just don't love you. I love her."

You've built a love but that love falls apart.

Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

She knew something like this was happening, she knew it but she hadn't believed it when Sango had told her Inu-Yasha was most probably cheating on her.

Maybe it was because she wanted it all to be untrue, she wanted to be with Inu-Yasha still, she wanted them together. She'd seen all the signs he was cheating on her, everything.

"Kagome we need to talk." Was all he said, but his words struck her deep, breaking off a piece of her heart. She sat down without a word, numb with surprise, rage, and sadness. "Kagome, we're over. I've found someone else. She's right next to me. Her name is Kikyo." He paused, another chunk of her heart broke off.

"I'm packing up my stuff in the next two days, so I'll be around until then. I'm taking everything from this apartment that I own to Kikyo's." Yet another part of Kagome's broken heart again fell off.

"Bye." Kagome said emotionless, still standing silent, her heart was breaking she could feel it. The other two people left the room. Kagome heard a 'VROOM' as Inu-Yasha and his new girlfriend left the parking lot.

That was it; the last piece of Kagome's broken heart fell off, leaving her feeling numb. Her little heaven was gone, her home. It too was time for her to leave...

Listen to your heart

when he's calling for you.

It seemed like hours until Kagome was done packing her stuff, everything even the TV and the laptop. She scribbled a note to Inu-Yasha, since he would come by two days from now.

She wrote,

Inu-Yasha,

I'm gone already. Here's the key, I'll leave it to you to tell the landlord his renters are gone. Since we've paid this month's rent, you should have no problem.

I've taken my belongings and my TV.

Kagome

There, she was done. She picked up her suitcases, and other stuff, and walked out of her apartment forever. Maybe there would be someone else for her, just her. Someone to love and care for her, someone who would love her for eternity no matter what happened.

She shoved her belongings into the trunk of her BMW X5; it was a nice car. Well at least to her, Inu-Yasha who came from a rich family where everything was served to him on a golden platter, Inu-Yasha preferred flashier cars, Ferraris.

It was time to find a new apartment, some place to rent, maybe there was an add in the newspapers. Just maybe...

Listen to your heart

there's nothing else you can do.

Maybe Sango would let her stay in the apartment she owned, hm, she would just have to ask. She drove her car into the driveway of a medium sized house, big enough for five people to live comfortably in. Sango could afford a bigger house with what she earned but, she and Miroku, decided that this house was perfect for them. She sighed, why she couldn't she have a relationship with someone like Sango's relationship with Miroku, she just envied them for the relationship they had with each other.

Taking out her cell phone she dialed Sango's home number, hopefully she was home.

"Hello?" came Sango's voice through the cell phone.

"Sango... It's me Kagome; I need to live somewhere for a while, before you start with the questions. Do you know a place where I can live for now?" Kagome asked in a shaky voice.

"Kagome, why don't you just come stay with me, and don't start saying that you're going to live off of me for free.Don't even start the bitthat you're going to live off of my charity. You're going to have to pay rent, to be fair, and so you don't argue about staying here. Get you and your stuff over here." Sango said softly before her voice changed to its normal happy voice.

"I'm already here; I'm in your driveway." Kagome laughed.

"Really...." Sango paused walking to a window in the front of the house. "I see you! What are you doing, waiting till your old? Come inside! Bring your stuff too."

I don't know where you're going

and I don't know why,

but listen to your heart

before you tell him goodbye.

"Bye, Sango, I'll see you in a few minutes." Kagome finished before shutting her cell phone. She proceeded to then get out of her car and take out her luggage, and everything except for her TV, the TV would stay in her trunk for now.

"What's wrong?" Sango asked as soon as Kagome stepped into her house. As soon as those words came out of Sango's mouth Kagome fell to her knees and began to sob.

"H-he. Ch-ch-eated. On. Me." Kagome whispered in-between sobs and breaths.

"He did what? Speak up, Kagome!" Sango said trying to understand what she was trying to say, while also trying to decide whether she should take Kagome to the kitchen first to get tea or lead her to the couch in the living room.

"He. Cheated. On. Me." She said louder between gritted teeth.

"He WHAT?" Sango exclaimed, "That bastard, I bet Miroku knew and didn't tell me...That jerk."

"Sango?" Kagome said trying to get her attention.

"I bet he did know, he's in for a surprise when he gets home." Sango began to rant.

"Sango!" Kagome shouted getting her friend's attention.

"Yes?" Sango asked, "Oh, what are we talking about again? We were talking about that cheating son of a bit-. By the way who did he cheat on you with?"

"He said her name was Kikyo." Kagome answered before taking a spare tissue from her pocket. She wiped harshly at her eyes when tears began to spill.

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.

The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.

"Kikyo... Where have I heard that name before... Where..." Sango mumbled as she wracked her brain trying to figure out where she had heard that name before, nope nothing popped up into her head, maybe something would come up later.

"When did he break up with you Kagome?" Sango asked softly.

"Today." She said simply. "I knew he was cheating on me... But I didn't want to believe the clues that said he was cheating on me. I didn't want to, I really didn't."

"You knew?" Sango said her eyes wide. Why didn't she just break up with him? She thought to herself.

"Yea, I did Sango. Could we go somewhere else to talk about this?" Kagome asked politely while trying to keep her tears at bay. Sango nodded before leading Kagome into the living room and onto the couch. She quickly left the room and then entered again with two steaming cups of tea. She handed Kagome one of the cups before taking her own seat next to Kagome on the couch.

They're swept away and nothing is what is seems,

the feeling of belonging to your dreams.

"I saw all the signs he was cheating on me, all those signs. He started coming home late at night a few months ago, he called and always told me it was either work, business dinner, or a conference. When I washed his shirts I would smell perfume on them, that wasn't mine. I found a pair of earrings in his pants that didn't belong to me. I looked at his credit card bills... The last few months and I saw that he was spending massive amounts on things like expensive jewelry. I just didn't want to believe it was true... I though he was the one Sango." Kagome said letting the steam wafting from the tea surround her face in a warm enclosing until the tea cooled.

"You'll find that special someone, Kagome, I know you will." Sango whispered as she hugged Kagome tightly.

"I just thought that if I gave him time... He would stop cheating on me on his own accord. Then everything would return to being normal." Kagome said slowly as a few stray tears ran down her eyes. "You even warned me, he might have been cheating on me... and I didn't even listen."

"Kagome, just listen to me. He never deserved you, you deserve someone better. Someone who really loves you, and will cherish you until you die." Sango told Kagome. "But you need to get over him. He's not worth your tears, start dating again."

Listen to your heart

when he's calling for you.

"I know... I know... But, I loved him, I truly did." Kagome sniffed as she dried her tears with a tissue.

"So how about we get your stuff up to your new room?" Sango suggested trying to change the subject. Kagome nodded her head; she didn't need to ask why Sango abruptly changed the subject. The two friends walked into the hallway heading towards Kagome's fallen luggage near the front door. "Follow me." Sango said before walking up the stairs, of her house, to a room in the west part of her house. Once Sango had found the room she was looking for she set Kagome's stuff inside the room. "You can tell me when your ready to go get your TV out of your car."

Listen to your heart

there's nothing else you can do.

Kagome smiled as Sango left the room. She touched her moist cheek the tears had stopped. She wondered why she had even cried tears over him; he was just one guy. More guys could be out there just waiting for her. She laughed at the picture her mind made of Inu-Yasha as a fish swimming in the sea. She sighed, and let a small smile cross over her face. Maybe in time she would be able to get over him, maybe the day would come tomorrow, or next week.

"What a waste of tears." Kagome said going to a mirror on the other side of her new room, her eyes were red and her face was blotchy, but she looked fine all in all. She stood in front of the mirror for a few moments before screaming, sending Sango rushing into her room.

"Kagome!" Sango started, shutting her mouth as she saw nothing disturbing, nothing broken, nothing out of the ordinary. She raised an eyebrow before saying, "What was the scream for, broke a nail?"

"No," Kagome glared at Sango, "I forgot, I need a new job, who's going to hire me? I have no skills what so ever. All I can do is be an assistant, and I have experience in being a secretary. Secretarial skills, who needs a secretary?" Sango sighed.

"Kagome, I might know off a person who could hire you." Sango said while backing away from Kagome as she suddenly gained an evil glint in her eyes.

"Sango..." Kagome began before pouncing on her friend, "You know you want to tell me." She finished while on top of her friend.
