Disclaimer: I don't own InuYasha, Papa Roach, Hinder, or Myspace. Though I really wish I owned InuYasha.
A/N: Hello! I'm so excited! This is my first InuYasha story to be posted on ff! Yay! Anyway the characters area a little OOC but this is AU so does it matter? Kind of. But yeah. I'm Rambling. This story happens to be true. It happened at one point on my life but I had to re-create some of the situations to fit InuYasha.
A Love Catastrophe.
It was Halloween finally! The concert I had been waiting for, for months was finally here! "You're so lucky Kagome! I wish I could go."
"Don't worry Sango as soon as your song plays I'll call you." I said with a genuine smile. Man, did I want to rub it in but I controlled myself. "I'll talk to you later." I called as I watched her climb into her suburban, and waved to her mom.
As I waited for my ride I imagined what tonight would be like. Standing right in front of the stage with everyone moshing around me, Jacoby's sweat dripping off his body close enough to touch. It gave me the chills. Deep in thought I failed to notice the car stop in front of me. "Kagome!"
"Huh? Oh coming!" Yes tonight was going to be great!
I was quickly losing my patience. We had been here since four and it was already five! The concert started at seven and seeing as it was outside of town it would take a little longer to get there and I still had to get ready. Why did mother chose today to visit her crazy friend. "Are you ready?" She asked after catching my glare that would put the devil himself to shame.
"I've been ready since we got here." I said through gritted teeth.
"Fine we'll go. Goodbye Sakura it was nice talking to you again." My mother said as she told her friend goodbye.
"Goodbye, I wish you could have stayed longer." Sakura replied while glancing at me slightly. Don't give me that look. Its not my fault one of the most important concerts of the year is tonight.
"Yes well goodbye." My mother said as she walked outside towards our car. I shortly followed.
'Free at last!' I thought as I walked into my closet. 'Now what to wear.' As I looked through my closet nothing seemed to be right for the occasion. I soon decided on my black shirt with multi-colored skulls and a pair of old jeans. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the water. I could hardly wait until tonight. I hummed as I discarded my clothes and stepped in to the shower.
Fifteen minutes later and I stepped out squeaky clean. I threw on my clothes and started brushing my hair. I looked at the clock 5:30 plenty of time to blow-dry my hair. When I finished with my hair I grabbed my spray-on hair color. Seeing as my mother not letting me permanently dye my hair I had every color in the book.
I quickly decided on the blue and sprayed highlights in my jet black hair. I looked in the mirror and being satisfied with my appearance I walked into my room. My cell stared ringing and I picked it up and the caller I.D. read 'Kikyou'.
"Hello?"
"It's party time!" She shrilled into the phone. "We're on our way!" Beep.
We? I thought it was going to be just us. 'She must be talking about my Aunt.' I concluded. She was giving us a ride seeing as Kikyou lost her rights to her car and my motorcycle just wasn't right to take to a concert it might get trashed and I wasn't going to risk it. I hurriedly sliped on my solid black Chuck's (A/N: Converse) as I heard a honk outside. "Bye mom!" I yelled as I ran outside.
Standing on the shrine steps was Kikyou and a guy? "Hey Kagome!" She yelled as she crushed me in a breathtaking hug.
"Hey." I managed to breath out. As she stepped back I noticed her ensemble. A black shirt that didn't even reach her belly button and a shirt that reached mid-thigh, with pink highlights in her hair to match the pink blood-splatter on her 'shirt'. I raised an eyebrow she always was a class A whore.
"Oh and this is InuYasha, my boyfriend." Boyfriend? That's amusing.
"Nice to meet you." He politely said as he held his hand out toward me.
"Likewise." I replied as I shook his hand. He too, was sporting blue hair. Also he was wearing a Slipknot t-shirt and baggy pants with chains hanging off them.
"Okay! Now that we know each other lets go!" Kikyou shrilled. I hadn't spent time with my cousin in a while and it seemed she got a little more annoying over time. We hopped into what I'm guess was InuYasha's car. I caught him staring at me through the rear-view mirror as Kikyou chattered away about how some girl at school called her a whore.
I wonder why. I smiled at him and he smiled back. "Well here we go." InuYasha said as he backed out of my drive-way.
We had stopped at a red light when InuYasha turned around and handed me a rubber eyeball. "Happy Halloween." He winked. My heart jumped.
"Thanks." I replied as a little blush spread across my cheeks. I turned quickly and looked out the window as I squeezed the rubber eyeball he had given me. What was that? When he winked at me, I never felt that way before. I looked down at the eyeball kind of immature but hey it was Halloween.
"So Kagome." Kikyou started. I didn't see what her reaction was to the little 'gift' I had received, but I guessed she wasn't to pleased by the tone in her voice. "How have you been? We haven't talked in a while. I felt like hitting her. Something inside me screamed to sock her. I, of course controlled it.
"Oh, I've been great, just living life as it comes ya know?" I replied with a fake smile plastered on my face.
"Uh huh." She waved me off and started talking to InuYasha. Bitch. If your going to start a conversation with me then don't wave me off!
"Hey Kagome, so what school do you go to?" InuYasha asked ignoring whatever Kikyou was telling him.
"Shikon High, the worst school alive." He chuckled.
"I hate my school too."
Kikyou obviously didn't like that all the attention wasn't directed to her. So she leaned over and kissed InuYasha smack dab on the lips. The car swerved a little before InuYasha gained control of it again. Kikyou smirked. Stupid bitch could have gotten us killed! She started talking as if the whole thing never happened while I seethed in the backseat for the rest of the ride to the arena.
I wasn't about to let what happened on the ride here ruin my whole night! So I brushed it off. I lit up as we walked into the arena where the concert would be performed. The atmosphere got my blood pumping. Music was blaring from the speakers and everyone was walking around in either a costume or their all black attire. Not one prep in sight, exactly how I like it.
"I'll go buy you a drink Kikyou just wait here with Kagome."
"Thanks Babe!" She yelled as he walked away. "Isn't he great?!" She didn't give me a chance to reply when she pulled me to talk to some random guys she probably though were cute. She was still the same old Kikyou, boyfriend or not.
"There's InuYasha! Let's go before he catches us!" I yelled over the roaring music.
"See you guys later, thanks for the numbers, I'll be sure to call." She winked at the two guys and licked her lips thinking it made her sexy. It disgusted me. I had just saved her whore hide back there when I should have let InuYasha catch her! What in seven hells was I thinking?
"Here you go babe." InuYasha said as he handed Kikyou a coke. "Here Kagome, I got you a root beer, I didn't know what you liked. He shrugged as he handed me my drink.
"Little did you know this is my favorite soda!" I beamed.
As he pulled back our hands touched and I felt a shock go through my entire body. "Well now I know." He smirked back. I just nodded dumbly. There was that feeling again, when he touched me.
"Alright people!" A random guy on the stage announced, "Are you ready for Papa Roach?!" Hundreds of screams could be heard around me, but the only person I was focused on was InuYasha. All thoughts quickly faded when Jacoby came on stage.
"Let's do this! In the darkest hour of my darkest day…" He began singing. I would figure everything out later, right now all I needed to worry about is Jacoby and getting to touch him.
The concert ended and I was partly satisfied. Papa Roach and Hinder were great, but the whole time InuYasha and Kikyou were all over each other! Occasionally InuYasha would look at me and then turn away when I looked back. The ride to Kikyou's house took at least an hour. When we got there Kikyou invited both of us in.
"Mom! I'm back!" She shouted as soon as she walked through the door.
My Aunt walked into the living room. "Hello darling, did you have a good time?" She asked.
"Yeah it was great!" She smiled the phoniest smile I've ever seen. My Aunt is great and she deserves a good daughter.
"Kagome!" She exclaimed as she walked over to give me a hug. "I haven't seen you in while. Ah, your as beautiful as ever! You look just like your mother!"
"Thank you Auntie!" I smiled as I gave her a hug.
"Oh your welcome dear! So Kikyou I hope you and InuYasha were well behaved." She said giving Kikyou the dreaded look.
"Of course-"
"They made-out the whole time Auntie!" I cut in before Kikyou could finish.
"My Lord! Kikyou!" She looked like she was about to have a heart attack. She was the only one who didn't know Kikyou was a whore.
"I'm just kidding Auntie! They were very well-behaved." I lied before Auntie's heart broke. I just wanted to see Kikyou's reaction and man was it priceless!
"Oh Kagome! You worried me!" My Aunt exclaimed dramatically.
"I'm sorry Auntie but I couldn't resist! Kikyou's face! Ha ha! It was priceless!" I said between laughs. Soon InuYasha and Auntie joined in my laughter.
"Well I better get back to cooking. Its late and I still haven't finished. I have to cook half the food for tomorrow's party at work!"
I still giggled a little while InuYasha, Kikyou, and I walked up the stairs to her room. She turned around and glared at me.
"It wasn't that funny you know?" She said annoyed when we got inside her room. I stifled a giggle.
"Ok, I'm done." I said finally getting it out of my system. But that wasn't enough for Kikyou.
She poked me on my side and said, "That wasn't very funny why'd you say that?" But before I could answer InuYasha decided he would join in and started tickling me.
"Ahh! Stop! Ha ha! InuYasha!" I screamed between laughs. He didn't stop though until Kikyou decided that that was enough.
"STOP!" She yelled. That froze me and InuYasha. Then she hooked to his arm like a leech. Jealous much? Geez. After that things got a little awkward. It was time for me to go.
"Um well I think I'm going home. Mother is probably worried." 'If she isn't already asleep.'
"Let me give you a ride." Inuyasha said as he pulled away from Kikyou.
"I'd really appreciate that." I smiled then look over at Kikyou. She was giving me the death glare. If looks could kill.
"Lets go. Bye Kikyou." InuYasha said the gave her a peck on the lips. I walked out of the room and downstairs to say bye to my Aunt. After that I met InuYasha at the front door. We walked out of the house and to his car. I climbed into the passenger side while he got into the driving side. An awkward silence seeped its way into the car.
"So thanks for giving me a ride." I said finally breaking the silence. The car ride was about 30 minutes seeing as Kikyou lived on the other side of town from me.
"No problem." He replied not taking his eyes off the road. To tell you the truth I might have been a little nervous.
"So… How long have you and Kikyou been to together?" I asked trying to start up a conversation.
"About six months."
"Wow." 'They managed to stay together that long? Hasn't he noticed Kikyou's a lying, cheating whore. Denial. Yup it was total denial.'
"Yup. So you have a boyfriend?" He asked casually.
"Nah, I'm laying low for a while. My last relationship wasn't all candies and flowers." I replied. My last boyfriend was such a bastard.
"Really? Something bad go down?"
"Yea found out he was a cheater. I walked in on him sucking face with the school slut." I replied bitterly.
"Wow. What did you do?"
"What could I have done? I ran from the scene cried for days then broke up with him. My friends slapped him around a little though."
"The way you come off I thought you would have done the slapping." I strangely took that as a compliment.
"Well, I was stunned to say the least. I seriously thought I was in love with this guy. I was to hurt to do anything."
"I'm sorry." He said then patted my hand and smiled at me sympathetically.
"Dude, I'm way over it!" I said and waved my arms a little to convince him.
"Okay. Well we're here." He said as he pulled into my drive-way.
"Yeah, well thanks for the ride."
"Like I said no problem. Oh do you have Myspace?"
"Yeah."
"Well make sure to add me alright? Later!" He said as he drove off.
I walked into my house and everyone was asleep. I walked up stairs to my room and shut the door. I got undressed and stepped into the shower. A while later I got out and slipped on some pj's for bed. I got ready for bed and listened to my iPod. As I tried to fall asleep I found myself thinking about InuYasha. 'What the hell is my problem? Why am I thinking of him? I asked myself those question and drifted off to sleep.
The next day at school everything went normal. I bragged a little about going to the concert. A lot of people went, actually. I didn't pay much attention to the people around me.
After four long periods the lunch bell finally rang. "So how was the concert?" My friend Ayame asked.
"It was great!" I said waving my arms for exaggeration.
"So did you meet anyone?" She asked wiggling her eyebrows.
"No you perv." I replied annoyed. InuYasha's face flashed in my mind.
"Too bad, God knows any guy would be lucky to have that." She said as she pointed to my bottom.
"Oh. Go get a life!" I exclaimed while giggling.
"I have one, a damn crazy one!" She replied. We both laughed and joked for the rest of lunch.
I rejoiced as school finally finished. "Hey Kagome!" A familiar voiced shouted behind me.
"Hey Sango!" I replied with a bright smile.
"So did something happen last night? You seemed a little dazed today." God, she always gets straight to the point.
"Nope, I had an awesome time!" I said with a true smile. Sure I was a little confused about InuYasha but, that doesn't mean I had an awful time. Besides Kikyou being there.
"Okay…" She said not totally convinced. She could always see right through me.
"Well there's my ride. Talk to you later!" I waved goodbye. 'Nobody needs to know about this until I'm sure what that feeling was.'
When I got home I went straight to the computer to check my Myspace. 'Just as I though new friend requests.' I clicked the link and sure enough out of the list I had received InuYasha's picture was at the very top. I approved his request and sent him a message. I was disappointed when I saw he wasn't online. 'God Myspace bores me.' I though as I logged off. 'I'll check my messages tomorrow.'
Well that's the end of chapter one. Did it totally suck? Anyway in case your wondering yeah I'm still in love with the guy that's in love with my whore of a cousin. Don't worry just because I never got my happy ending doesn't mean Kagome won't get hers. Who knows I still might get mine. Well R/R and tell me what you think!
