Who says that contructive criticism isn't appreciated? I just had some and
let me tell you....I got an idea! I know, you're saying...but
Audrey....it's criticism! Guys, I can't even describe this feeling. To tell
you the truth, I had writer's block towards the end of Predictable Chaos,
but now this new idea popped in my head and WHOA! I really hope you like
it. I'm taking a chance at humor. Hope you enjoy and don't forget to
review!! Disclaimer: We all have to come to terms with ourselves and admit
that we don't own Inuyasha.....DAMN! Nor do I own "Old Time Rock n Roll" or
"Risky Business". or dunkaroos...
Old Fashioned Love - Triangle - Jellybean Socks and Bob Seger
Padded feet skidded across the tiled floor to the kitchen. Small hands plugged in a tiny boom - box and walked out of the kitchen. Not a second later, the same hands pushed 'play' on a remote belonging to the machine.
Dune Dune Dune Dune Dune Dune Dune......Dune Dune Dune Dune Dune Dune Dune....."Just take those old records off the shelf." These were the words being blasted from Kagome's radio as she slid across the floor in a pair of Superman Dunkaroos and white tuxedo shirt. She continued to dance to the Bob Seger song, just as the legendary Tom Cruise had done in "Risky Business". ' Although, the actor had done it much more gracefully then me, ' Kagome thought as her jellybean speckled socks took her soaring - right into the kitchen table.
It had been several months since Kagome last had a night just to herself. She was either in the Feudal Era, being pestered by Inuyasha, or at home being pestered by Souta. Tonight she just wanted to be a teenager in the privacy in her own home and dance in her underwear. Ok, so they weren't HER'S. They were actually Souta's. Her mother had somehow mized up their laundry and Kagome ended up with red Superman underwear. Kagome didn't mind though, they were....cute...in a way.
The adolescent continued to dance as she fixed herself a bowl of popcorn and poured herself something to drink. She turned to see a pair of golden eyes staring at her and the popcorn and soda flew up into the air. A bloodcurdling scream escaped Kagome's mouth and smacked the intruder with a wooden spoon sitting on the kitchen table.
Inuyasha tried to duck under the startled girl's attack but slipped on the strange liquid that she dropped and fell to the floor instead; taking Kagome with him. The two collided with the hard floor.
"Inuyasha?!"
"Ugghhh...what?" Kagome gawked at the hanyou with wide eyes. "Kagome....what are you wearing?" Kagome stood up and tried to cover herself up as best as she could.
"SIT!" With that final command, Kagome ran up stairs to change into something less revealing and embarrassing. She was soon followed by Inuyasha and he opened her door just as she pulled up her pajama boxers.
"What was that for?!"
"I TOLD you that i'd be back tomorrow!!"
"I was tired of waiting!" Kagome plopped down on her matress and threw her hands over her face in frustration. After a few minutes she sat up from the bed and sighed.
"Ok....i'll meet you on the other side in an hour." Inuyasha crossed his arms over his chest triumphantly. Kagome threw a blanket at him. She hated when he acted like he was high almighty.
"It's not because you told me too,Inuyasha....I promised Shippo i'd return a little earlier. " With that, Kagome began to push the hanyou out of her room.
"One hour!!" The door slammed in Inuyasha's face.
He grumbled his way back to the well, grumbled when he jumped in the well, and grumbled when he climbed out. He knew Kagome wanted to stay another night but he needed her here in the Feudal Era. 'Did I just think that? Of course she's needed....for shard detecting....that's right!' He smiled at regaining his thoughts and kicked at stone out of his way.
"Hello Inuyasha." The voice of the miko rang through Inuyasha's ears like sad church bells. When had she popped up? 'I must've been occupied by thinking of Kagome. Gah! Stop that!' Kikyo walked up to Inuyasha and reached for his hand. He didn't dispute the touch.
Kagome locked the door behind her. It would be late when Souta, Grandpa and Mother would return from the festival that night. She told them she wanted to stay home that night because she was tired even though it was a lie. She just wanted a quiet, peaceful night; without Inuyasha. She would admit that she cared for him, deeply, but there were days that she, like any other girl, wanted to be alone and act like a girl. Have fun. It wasn't that she loved her friends from the past but slaying demons and detecting shards could quickly suck the energy out of anyone.
"Except Inuyasha. Arrogant bastard..." She smiled to herself at the comment, wondering if she would ever say that to Inuyasha's face. She lurched into the well.
He didn't mean to fall into the embrace. The last thing he wanted to do was get re-involved with Kikyo. He just wanted to put her to rest. But she came to him out of fear that Naraku would kill her that night.
"Ok..you can stay the night Kikyo. But....just don't try anything ok?" Kikyo nodded and hugged him.
"How I have longed for this Inuyasha..." Inuyasha rested his head on top of her's even though his mind kept screaming that she wasn't the same miko he fell in love with. Her lips slowly moved up to Inuyasha's.
"What is he doing?!", a female voice whispered from the bushes.
"It looks like he is hugging Kikyo, Sango."
"Thank you for stating the obvious. Wait a minute...." Sango lifted her hand and clobbered the monk's head. Miroku removed his hand from the youkai exterminator's rear. "Damn letch. Didn't Inuyasha say that Kagome was coming back tonight?"
"Id he was able to bring her back..." The two looked at each other with expressions of fear of what Kagome would do to the hanyou if he was caught. Miroku and Sango stumbled out of the bushes and ran to stop Kagome from seeing the scene.
Kagome curled her fingers over the rim of the well and struggled to pull herself out of the mouth. "Eep!" Kagome was almost thrown back into the well when she spotted the chocolate brown eyes of Sango staring at her.
"Hey Kagome! Back so soon?" Kagome raised a quesitoning eyebrow. A smile was plastered on Sango's face. The exterminator helped bring Kagome out of the well. Miroku was quickly by their side.
"Good evening Lady Kagome!" A smile was pasted on his face as well.
"Okay, what's going on here? Where's Inuyasha?" Sango and Miroku tossed a few glances between them. Miroku let his eyes wander off in the direction they had come from spying at. Kagome noticed the movement and followed. Sango nudged the monk and he was swiftly standing in front of the teenager.
"Why don't we take a stroll Kagome?"
"Noooo....I need to find Inuyasha. He WAS the one who wanted me to come back early after all."
"I understand this....but...but it's such a lovely night!" The priest tried his best to keep the girl from straying any farther.
"Miroku! Move!" Kagome pushed at Miroku and kept walking. Sango helped Miroku up. The monk lightly pushed Sango after Kagome. However Sango returned the push and nodded her head towards Kagome. Miroku gave the exterminator a warning glance and pointed over to Kagome. Sango suspired and ran up behind Kagome.
"I found a new hot spring. Would you like to try it out?"
"No thanks Sango. I just want some sleep tonight."
"How about we camp out tonight? It's such a clear night.."
"I don't know what you tow are up to but-" Kagome was cut off by the scene before her. There, in front of her, stood Kiyko and Inuyasha. Anger flooded Kagome's body but was soon replaced by hurt. Had he intended her to see this? It made sense. He could lure her here and make her see the truth. Miroku smacked his forehead. He had failed to prevent the predicament. Inuyasha's ear's flicked when he heard Kagome approach. He quickly released Kikyo and stared at Kagome. Pain. It was clear in her eyes and all over her body. A sick twist formed in the pit of Inuyasha's stomach.
Kagome turned her back to him. She wasn't going to let him see her cry. Not this time. Enough was enough. Inuyasha extended an arm to Kagome's shoulder but she tugged her shoulder back into her own grasp.
"Leave me alone..." Inuyasha closed his amber orbs in regret.
"Miroku...please make accomadations available to Kikyo. I need to go somewhere..." After all was said and done Sango brought her hand to Kagome's.
"Are you okay?" Kagome brushed at a lone piece of ebony hair and wiped away a single tear along with it. It was as if she was trying to wipe away the hurt and grief the hanyou caused her.
"Fine." Kagome turned towards Sango, her only female companion throughout these kind of ordeals.
"You don't look fine. Are you going to talk to Inuyasha?"
"Where has talking got me in the past? I talk and talk and it never seems to sink in. I'm done with it." Sango was surprised by Kagome's remark. She had seen the love between the hanyou and the girl before, and here she was, washing away a new slate?
"What do you mean?"
"I'm tired of crying over him, Sango. For once, I want him to cry over me. I him to know how it feels to have your heart stepped all over."
"You're angry Kagome...you're talking out of anger and hurt." Kagome ignored her and walked out of her presence. She only knew of one thing that would tick off Inuyasha.....
I know Kagome is a little ooc but she'll return soon. So yea, review! please? and this is going somewhere, i promise.
