Chapter 1: Betrayals
The street, bright with different lights and crowded by people, emitted a delicious variety of smells. The smell of the Italian cuisine clashed with the odor of fried rice and grilled chicken, creating a harmonious atmosphere of smell and taste. Deciding what to buy was a hard choice with all the delicious options and an open appetite. Kagome walked through the street, looking from side to side, inhaling all the odors, trying to find one that would stand out. She stopped in front of a familiar restaurant.
I'll buy ramen. I bet Inuyasha would be thrilled.
It was his favorite food, so why not. Kagome made her order and while waiting she recalled the events from that evening that boosted her mood.
"Good night, Doctor."
As the last patient walked out from the office, Kagome went over the recent appointment the doctor had with his patient in her head. It was a long appointment, but Kagome organized her thoughts with only the important details. Readying herself for her upcoming questioning.
"Higurashi-san" The male that was sitting by the desk called her over.
"Yes, Doctor?" Here it comes, focus!
"You can call me Koga when after work is over, Kagome." The male looked up to her and smiled.
"But my shift is not over yet. I still have three more hours, and you still haven't asked me anything about the recent appointment." Kagome looked at him confused, not understanding his statement.
"Well, fortunately for you, I will let you go home early today. I have seen how hard you have worked lately, so you have the rest of the evening free for yourself." He said while standing up from his chair.
"And about the review, well don't worry about that. You have shown tremendous progress over the year, besides reviews are now kids play for you."
Kagome let the information sink in. A huge smile adorned her face and her two palms met each other.
I finally have time for Inuyasha! "Really Koga-san? I mean are you sure you won't be needing more help?"
"It's alright, there is nothing much left to do, just a couple more patients to attend to until I'm done." He grinned at her, satisfied to see a smile on her face.
Kagome couldn't help being overly excited. She jumped next to Koga and hugged his neck.
"Oh, thank you! I will make it up to you."
Koga's eyes widened and faint blush appeared. He was surprised by her sudden attack, but returned her hug and smiled.
"It's alright, just have fun today and… take care." He pushed her away and looked at her in the eye. "If that mutt-face does anything to hurt you again, even the slightest, just call me and he will know the true meaning of pain."
Kagome frowned a bit but let it slide. For some reason Koga had never really approved of her dating the heir to the Taisho enterprises, Inuyasha, and his treatment towards her, or more like lack of attention in public. Inuyasha had never treated her badly, but he becomes distant when seen in public with her, which hurt her feelings. This resulted that their dates were always in private. They have been dating for two years now and Inuyasha never once introduced her to his family. Koga knows about her relationship with Inuyasha because over the years the only one person she could talk to about anything was him. Even though Koga is her mentor, she has known him since med school. Their strong friendship makes her confide in him with her issues, and he was always willing to listen.
"Thanks Koga-san, but I think that won't be necessary" Grinning, she turned around and headed for the door. "Have a good evening, and thank you again!"
With a wave, Kagome was out of the door, only leaving behind the sound of her retreating footsteps.
Koga sat down, sighing. Since the first time he had met her he felt attracted to her and after becoming friends, he found out what a wonderful woman she is. However, by the time he was in love with her she was already taken by that mutt-face.
"Here is your order miss." The guy at the counter handed her a plastic bag containing the meal she ordered.
"Thank you."
She took the bag and started her trip towards Inuyasha's condo. After so long, she finally had some time to spare for him. She always wanted to be a doctor, but her training takes up her whole schedule. She hardly ever has time for her social life, even less for her boyfriend. He always tells her that it's fine, as long as she enjoys her work, which she does, but for some reason she felt guilty for not spending time with him. She believes that he is not being truthful with her, and not actually telling her what is on his mind. He never complains, and his continuous approval and support of her dream hides his true feelings. Kagome has been determined to get the truth out of him, but with her tight schedule, she hardly has the time to cuddle and talk with him anymore.
After the long walk, she was finally at his building complex. She approached the guard, who welcomed her warmly.
"It's been so long Miss Higurashi. I bet Mr. Taisho will be thrilled to hear that you are here."
As he started to grab the phone, Kagome stopped him, giving him a smirk and wink. For a moment the guard looked confused, but after a few seconds, her intentions became clear. She wanted to surprise him. He smiled back and let her in. Going up, towards his apartment, was a blur, she could only remember the excitement she felt to see him again. Finally standing in front of his doorstep, she took a deep breath, never anticipated what was truly waiting on the other side of the door.
"Wait, Kagome!"
Inuyasha was now running down the staircase of his condo, while trying to put on his pants. Kagome was almost at the door when she turned around, her expression one of anger. Inuyasha eyes locked with her blazing eyes which were directed at him.
"What Inuyasha? Is there anything else you wanted to add after sleeping with my sister!"
~*~FLASHBACK~*~
Kagome opened the door to his condo with her keys. As she entered, she headed straight to the kitchen to place the food on the counter. After placing the food, she realized how strangely quiet it was. Usually Inuyasha would be found playing videos games on his living room with surround system. Yes, he was a noisy rich guy.
Kagome became a little worried. She looked all around the first floor, but could not find him. She was completely sure that he would be home at this hour. She stood by the living room, thinking about what could have happened, when suddenly she heard a noise coming from upstairs.
'Ah, he must be upstairs.'
That was her cue to surprise him, so she went upstairs with a mischievous smile. However, that smile disappeared from her face when she saw a bra hanging on his doorknob. She was certain that was not hers. She did not have to reach because before the image in front of her could process in her brain, she heard moaning coming from behind his bedroom door.
She felt her insides twist, and a cold shiver went through her spine. Without a second thought she swung the door open, and there he was. With her.
~*~END OF FLASHBACK~*~
Kagome could not believe that when she came to her boyfriend's to surprise him with the nice dinner she brought for him, that she would have found him sleeping with her older twin sister.
"I can explain."
"Inuyasha, I doubt there will be any good excuse for this situation. But, you know what, go ahead; I would love to hear this." There was no way anyone could not have noticed the sarcasm in her voice.
"I am not the only one to blame here, if you had not – "
Kagome interrupted Inuyasha.
"Hold on Inuyasha. How in heaven's name is you cheating on me my fault." Kagome was confused now and was seething with anger.
How dare him for trying to pin this on me!
Inuyasha saw the confusion on her face. He was starting to get a bit irritated of her innocent act. She knew very well what she did.
"Let me finish damn it! It's your fault Kagome, perhaps if you spent more time with me, and less time at the hospital training to become a doctor, which by the way I don't think u can become one, I would not have cheated on you."
Kagome could not believe what she was hearing. She felt like she just got stabbed in the back.
"But—"
"Face it Kagome, you know very well you can't become a doctor. Only some people in this world can make it, you are not one of them. I did not want to tell you before, because I did not want to hurt your feelings."
Kagome felt as though she just got slapped in the face. It suddenly became silent.
Kagome felt so hurt and betrayed. She could not believe he had said that to her, after stating long time ago that he supported her and her dream, no matter what the future might have in store for them. She had warned him before they started to go out two years ago that she would be very busy finishing her studies and training to obtain her license as a doctor. It had always been her dream, and even though she was not the smartest person around. She was a person who excelled if she trained, compared to memorization.
Inuyasha saw the hurt in her eyes.
"Look Kagome, I'm sorry for sounding so harsh. However, in my honest opinion its best you quit, I see many times how hard you work and if you then later fail you would be sad and disappointed. I would hate to see you depressed."
Kagome just kept staring.
"Ever since we started dating you always picked your studies over me. You don't have to work so hard anymore you know, I can take care of you, you never have to work a day in your life again."
Kagome knew what he was doing. He was trying to twist this around. So she ignored what he said.
"Why did you slept with my sister, her of all people?"
"Kagome.."
"You know how much I hate her. I have told you many times to stay the hell away from her. Why did you not listen to me? I knew that bitch was going to take what was mine again!"
Inuyasha was surprised she finally started cursing.
"Don't call her that. I don't understand, why you hate her so much she is a good person…"
"You really don't see why? Just think back to when you were fucking the bitch instead of your girlfriend. She always went for my boyfriends and I warned you about her, but I guess warning you was futile."
"It's not her fault, leave her out of this."
Kagome could not believe Inuyasha was that much underneath Kikyou's spell, that he was even defending her.
"Inuyasha, why are you defending her?" Kagome raised her voice.
"Because, I might have fallen in love with her!"
As Inuyasha said those words, he regretted them. He saw that Kagome's anger was gone. Her eyes grew wide and anger was replaced by a sad frown.
"You love her?" Kagome felt so hurt, she barely managed to speak the words.
"You told me that you loved me and only me…" Kagome tried for her voice not to sound broken.
"Kagome... I do love you, however…" Inuyasha was now scratching his head, finding it difficult to explain to her without hurting her.
"Inuyahsa, which is it? You love me or her? You can't have both of us!" Kagome eyes were gleaming with some hope.
Inuyasha was looking down at the moment. As he looked up, Kagome knew his answer right away after seeing his eyes.
"So you have chosen Kikyou then."
"No, I have not. I did not pick her."
"Cut the crap Inuyasha! You did pick her, she is the one in your room right now, not me. You have not even spoken with me all week long. You don't answer my calls, you do even text me anymore. Don't you dare try to pin this on me, because even though I am busy at the hospital and with my studies, I at least still make an effort! Do you know how hard it is to be in a relationship with a guy who scrambles away from his girlfriend in public? With a guy who can't even acknowledge our relationship?"
Kagome right now was on a roll. There was no way she was leaving without speaking her mind out.
"Kagome, I don't -"
"Don't deny it Inuyasha. You are ashamed to be with me, because I am a commoner. You did not even introduce me to your parents yet. The rich and great Inuyasha Taisho is too good to go out with someone of my standards. That is why the only time you flirt with me in public was at the masquerade ball your parents hosted for the company. Even at the party you only introduced me as a friend. If you were not so ashamed of us, we could march down right now to your parents mansion and declare us official in front of them."
"No…"
"See that is exactly what I mean. Well, I guess right now you finally found the perfect partner to show off. Been my sister is a rich model. You don't have to be ashamed anymore. God, Koga was right about you, I should have listened to him."
At that name Inuyasha became angry and found the perfect moment to bring that wolf shit.
"You know Kagome, you such a hypocrite."
This brought Kagome to a silence, she was confused again. Inuyasha took the chance.
"Exactly, don't think that I don't know about what going on between you and Koga. I know you guys sleep together. Don't act so innocent and blame everything on me, this is as much your fault as it is mine."
"Inuyasha, Koga is my mentor and has helped me so much. Don't you dare accuse him of such things. I met him before you, and was spending equal amount of time with him before I started dating you. Do you know how much I have sacrificed and how much he has help cover for me. So I can spend all my free time with you and even more. Damn it! Inuyasha, I even declined to go abroad to study in America just so I could stay here with you."
Kagome was furious now. How dare he insult Koga in front of her.
I should have listened to Koga when he warned me of Inuyasha Taisho.
"When we started dating and I refused to study abroad, Koga stopped talking to me. Now he finally started talking to me again. When I told you about this, you just laughed. I can't believe I defended you in front of him."
Inuyasha was surprised to hear she sacrificed going to America just to stay with him.
"We are even now, let's just put this behind us, and move on -"
"That is where you are wrong Inuyasha; unlike you, I have been faithful. I never had slept with another man beside you, Inuyasha."
Kikyo was now coming down the stairs and stopped next to Inuyasha.
"I am sorry Kagome, please listen—"
"Shut up, Kikyo. Don't act all innocent! You knew I loved Inuyasha, yet you still went for him, when I warned you to stay the hell away."
"Kagome, if he is with me, how much does that show you about your relationship? If he had really cared for you like you care for him, why had he been going out with me for almost half a year now? "
Kagome looked at them.
A whole half a year!
Kagome was speechless. When was he planning on telling her? Making her feel like a fool the last past six months. She should have noticed. They were not spending as much time as they used to anymore. When she would call he never picked up or dismissed her right away. He never invited her on dates anymore, she would always have to ask.
"So you love me, huh?" Kagome said staring blankly at Inuyasha.
The tears Kagome had been trying to hold back since she had caught the two in bed was now pouring out. She could hold them any longer. This was too much for her.
"Good bye, Inuyasha." She started to walk away, but stopped and slightly turned, her eyes hidden behind her bangs.
"Oh, and by the way, you can just throw all my stuff away. I don't want them back." And with that she left.
