Flashback
Inuyasha sat under the Goshinboku tree next to Kagome. He was recovering from the five sits that she had just laid out on him.
"Stupid wench," He muttered. Kagome glared at him.
"Sit." She said nonchalantly.
Inuyasha fell to the ground with a large "thump".
"Look Inuyasha, I have a suggestion," Kagome began. "I'll go back to my time for a week--" she got cut off by Inuyasha's loud objection.
"A WEEK!" He screamed.
Kagome nodded and waited for him to object, another sit at the tip of her tongue. Inuyasha glared, he dared not risk the safety of his back bone that he was sure she had fractured.
He sat down and crossed his arm. "What for, wench?" he asked.
Kagome was offended by the comment but brushed it off seeing how he wasn't putting his usual fight, guessing that he was most likely too scared to risk being sat again, but didn't want to risk his pride. She sighed. "I have finals." She retorted scornfully.
Inuyasha sighed and stared off into the distance. "Five days." He bargained.
Kagome blinked. Was he actually settling with her? Something was definitely wrong with him. "Are you okay?" she asked placing her hand on his forehead.
He glared at her. "I'm fine wench." The truth was he didn't want her to go, but he needed some time to his self.
Kagome nodded. "If you say so." She stood up and slang her backpack over her shoulder, causing her to lose balance and fall to the ground. She didn't bother defending her self, knowing that Inuyasha would catch her but was surprised when she felt the impact that she hadn't felt in forever. She looked up to see Inuyasha looking at the night sky, far off in his own thought. She huffed and stormed away.
Inuyasha, not realizing what had happened looked off in the direction of the well to see a young girl angrily digging her feet into the soft soil of the forest. He sighed and leaned his back against the tree.
End Flashback
It was two days later; Inuyasha was looking at the piece of paper that had caused the fate of his Kagome leaving for a while. He began to read it once again. It was still funny, but at the day he wrote it was the day Kagome left. He sighed, knowing he still had to live through three more sunsets without her.
A smirk played across his lips as he read the paper again.
Mood Rings
We
all know the girls that I am talking about And I've contrived some sort of
a plan to help my fellow man If its drama you want then look no
further And
I've contrived some sort of a plan to help my fellow man Cause when it's black it means watch you back because
you're probably We all know the girls that I
am talking about mood ring, oh, mood ring
Well they are time
bombs and they are ticking
And the only question's when they'll
blow up
And they'll blow up
We know that without a doubt
Cause
they're those girls,
Yeah, you know those girls that let their
emotions get the best of them
Let's get emotional girls to all wear
mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to when they're ticked off
Cause
we'll know just what they're thinking, just what they're
thinking
She's so pretty but she doesn't always act that way
Her
moods are swinging on the swing set almost everyday
She said to me
that she's so happy its depressing
And all I said was someone get
that girl a mood ring
They're like "The Real World"
meets "Boy
Meets World"
meets "Days of Our Lives"
And it
just kills me how they get away with murder
They'll anger you then
bat their eyes
Those pretty eyes that watch you sympathize
Let's get
emotional girls to all wear mood rings
So we'll be tipped off to
when they're ticked off
Cause we'll know just what they're
thinking, just what they're thinking
She's so pretty but she
doesn't always act that way
Her moods are swinging on the swing
set almost everyday
She said to me that she's so stressed out that
it's soothing
And all I said was someone get that girl a mood
ring
the last person in the world right now she wants
to see
and when it's blue it means that you should call her up
immediately
and ask her out because she'll most likely agree
and
when it's green, it simply means that she is really stressed
and
when it's clear, it means she's completely emotionless
(and
that's alright, I must confess)
She liked you Wednesday, but now it's Friday and
she has to wash her hair
and it just figures that we'll never
figure them out
first she's Jekyll, then she's Hyde... at least
she makes a lovely pair
oh, tell
me, will you bring
the key to unlock this mystery
of girls and
their emotions
play it back in slow motion
so I may understand
the complex infrastructure known as the female mind
He laid his head down on the cool floor of Kaede's hut and sighed, wondering why he had written that song in the first place, knowing that if Kagome had found it he would be in huge trouble. Here he was, laying on the hard wood floor, bored out of his mind and he knew that it was all his fault. Suddenly he had an idea, what if the same thing that got him in trouble got him out? He smirked, sometimes he was so brilliant! He picked up one of Kagome's "pencils" and began to write.
He had to brainstorm… apologies were not his best subject. He decided it, this wouldn't technically be an apologetic song… it would just be… an explanation for why he acted this way. He began to write.
whoa-o...I've
been banging my head against the wall
whoa-o...for so long it
seems I knocked it down, yeah it got knocked down
whoa-o...and
the heating bill went through the roof
He didn't really know what bills were… he imagined they were something like the taxes that people had to pay in his time. Kagome had come back home one day talking about how she had to get a job to help pay the light bill or something. He shrugged it off, hey, it rhymed.
whoa-o...and
the wall I knocked down was the proof
that my landlord needed to
kick me out
So
many things Kagome had taught him about the present. He blinked,
remembering all of the things she had informed him about. There were
so many things, it kind of hurt. I got evicted now I'm
living on the street when the ashes occur to experience the bittersweet cause I struggle with
forward motion whoa-o...I've been banging my head against the
wall I got evicted now I'm
living on the street when I grasp the
concept to experience the bittersweet cause
I struggle with forward motion cause forward motion is
harder than it sounds cause I struggle with forward motion cause
I struggle with forward motion cause I struggle
with forward motion
my spirits lifted...oh wait, that wasn't
me
too many turns have turned out to be wrong
this time I
learned that, I knew it all along
then
I'll be what you were
when I see what I should
when I see that
it's good
to taste
defeat
then brush my teeth
experience the bittersweet
to
taste defeat
then brush my teeth
I struggle with forward motion
we all struggle
with forward motion
cause forward motion is harder than it
sounds
well every time I gain some ground
I've got to turn
myself around again
it's harder than it sounds
well every time
I gain some ground
I've got to turn myself around
again
whoa-o...for so long it seems I got knocked out. yeah, I got
knocked out cold
whoa-o...and the medical bills went through the
roof
whoa-o...and the scar on my head is the proof
that I'll
still remember this when I get old
my spirits lifted...oh wait, that wasn't
me
too many turns have turned out to be wrong
this time I
learned that, I knew it all along
then I'll sleep where you slept
when I know I need
help
when I allow myself
to
taste defeat
then brush your teeth
experience the
bittersweet
to taste defeat
then brush your teeth
I struggle with forward motion
we
all struggle with forward motion
well every time I gain some ground
I've
got to turn myself around again
it's harder than it sounds
well
every time I gain some ground
I've got to turn myself around
again
cause I struggle
with forward motion
we all struggle with forward motion
cause I struggle with forward
motion
we all struggle with forward motion
cause I struggle with forward motion
we all
struggle with forward motion
Inuyasha smiled. Who knew he was a poet! When Kagome got back she'd see this for sure. He'd make sure of it.
Kagome jumped out of the well to see Inuyasha standing in front of her with a proud grin across his face. She arched a brow at him. "What's your problem?" she asked.
Inuyasha grabbed her arm and helped her out of the well. She stared at him blankly. Why was he being so nice all of a sudden? "So." She asked.
Inuyasha began to fidget. "I uh—well you see- erm…" Inuyasha stuttered.
Kagome's furrowed her eyebrows at his sudden change of attitude. "Are you okay?" she asked. Inuyasha nodded.
He cursed under his breath. Why can't I figure out what to say? He thought.
Kagome noticed he had a piece of paper behind his back. "What's that?" she asked.
Inuyasha blushed. "Um, this is for you." He looked down at an amazing blade of grass and handed her the paper.
Kagome read the paper up and down and began to smile. She looked up at him. "Inuyasha…" she mumbled.
Inuyasha looked up from the blade of grass that was becoming less and less amazing each second. "Y-yeah?" he asked.
"Is this an apology?" she asked. Inuyasha rolled his eyes trying to cover up his blush.
"Feh, wench, lets head back to camp." He replied, grabbing her hand and dragging her away from the well.
Kagome rolled her eyes. She knew that this was just a sad attempt to save his pride, and just enjoyed the fact that he was holding her hand.
