AUTHOR NOTE: I haven't read a FanFic with this kind of plotline before, so hopefully you guys like it also. Sesshomaru will be slightly OOC in the beginning but he will fall back into character later on. I also have most of Chapter 2 done, so it should be up shortly after this one.
WARNING: This FanFic will have some very lemony scenes in upcoming chapters, so this is just a warning of what to come.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, but Shippou is another story. Just Kidding I don't own any Inuyasha and Co Characters.
Made For Loving You
Cryin'
I was crying when I met you
Now I'm trying to forget you
Love's sweet misery
"Cryin'" Aerosmith
"I'm going to miss you so much, Inuyasha." Kagome sobbed into her friend's chest. She stood about a head length below him, around 4'7", but he was, after all, a year older than her. He patted her back softly, rubbing gentle circles. Her cries receded slightly as she glanced up at him through teary eyes.
"Four years isn't that long. Before you know it, you'll be back in Japan from your foreign exchange program, and it'll be like you never left." He looked down into her red, puffy eyes, hidden under fogged up glasses. "Don't forget to call me on your birthday, you know, thirteen is a big year. You'll officially be a teenager." She smiled lightly and he smiled back; he loved the way she smiled, yet it wasn't quite as bright as when she wasn't crying. He hated seeing her so distraught, it killed him inside. Using the pad of his thumb, he brought his hands up to her face, wiping the tears away from under her glassy sky blue eyes. He brought her into another tight embrace, feeling her grip his shirt in attempt to stop time..
He wasn't attracted to her or anything, after all, he had known her for years. When his mother had passed away, Kagome's mother was his therapist in helping him with the overcoming of her tragic death. He would travel to the Higurashi estate for one hour sessions four times a week. His father had eventually bought the house next door to them a year later since he spent four days a week there and his father was always away on business, giving Inuyasha and his brother someone that could look after them while their father was gone. He gave Kagome a tight squeeze as he remembered how they first met.
FLASHBACK
He was sitting under a tree at his new house, one week after the move, crying. It was his eighth birthday and all he had received so far was eight painful punches in the arm from his older brother Sesshomaru; not even a Happy Birthday. His dad was out of town, as usual, and hadn't even called once.
"Why are you crying?"
His head shot up to see a girl younger than him, holding a flower in her hand. She had messy black hair, with slight dirt on her dress, probably from going through the garden to retrieve the flower she currently held. He scowled before turning away from her, hiding his face. He was a big boy and big boys don't cry. He remembered his therapist saying she had a daughter and a son, Kagome and Souta. She showed him pictures of them one session, but had yet to meet either of them and right now, really didn't want to.
"I wasn't crying, I just had something in my eye," he rubbed his eyes, trying to convince the girl that he wasn't crying and to get her to leave him alone.
"Well, my mommy said it was your birthday today so I picked you a flower." She outstretched her hand with the daisy and smiled, "Happy Birthday!"
He looked up at her and scowled. "Keh, I don't need your pity, I don't need your flower." When he heard nothing, he look over his shoulder and saw her still standing there with tears filling her eyes, her flower still stretched out in front of her. Why did she have to cry? All he wanted was to be left alone.
He roughly snatched the flower out of her hand before turning his back to her again. "Happy now! Now leave me alone would ya?" He stared at the flower with disgust, about to toss it to the ground before he felt something warm wrap around him. His eyes widened in shock; it was that girl, Kagome, and she was hugging him. Why couldn't she just leave him alone?
"Please don't be sad, Inuyasha, I'll be your friend, my name's Kagome" she then got up and left, leaving the young Hanyou still wide eyed as he stared at the flower in his hand. 'Kagome…'
END FLASHBACK
"Kagome dear, it's time to go. You don't want to miss your flight." Kagome's mother called from the car window. She didn't want to have her daughter go to America for four years at such a young age, but she had to for her own safety. She would understand when she was older.
"Ok mom, I'm coming." She gave Inuyasha one last tight squeeze before pulling back. He tears were still evident on her face, but her tears had subsided. Inuyasha smiled down at her before leaning down to place a small kiss on her cheek only to have her turn to face him, having his lips press against hers. Both drew back almost instantly, gazing at each other, wide eyed.
She quickly turned around, avoiding eye contact and got into the car after squeaking a 'goodbye'. She unrolled the window as her mom drove to the airport, waving back at him until she disappeared down the road. Inuyasha just stood there, feeling a tingle in his lips with his fingers. He was definitely going to miss her now, she took his first kiss.
In the car, Kagome was still feeling her lips, a wide eyed expression still evident on her features. 'He took my first kiss,' Kagome trembled, her eyes filling up with new tears. This was going to be a long four years.
FOUR YEARS LATER
She laughed lightly to herself at the remembrance of her trip to America. She was currently on an international flight back to Japan. It had been over two hours just to get through customs, and thankfully, she had slept most of the flight back home. She had learned so much about the American culture and their ways of life. She had enjoyed her stay in America, yet she was truly happy to be finally on her way back to the homeland she was born in.
She missed her family, especially her mom. Sure they sent pictures and talked almost every night, but she still felt homesick from time to time. After hearing that Souta had left for the summer to a priest training camp, she was kind of upset that she wouldn't see her brother for a few weeks. Also, Grandpa was currently sick last time she talked to her mom due to a homemade demon repellent he ingested which landed him in the hospital. The man may have had issue with Inu-Youkai living next door and it drove her crazy when he tried attacking Inuyasha when she was younger, but she still loved him. After all, he was her family. She would have to go see him soon.
Now that she thought about it, she also missed Inuyasha, even though he quit talking to her. They talked almost every night for about the first year until he suddenly stopped calling. She couldn't wait until she could see him again, if he still even lived there. She had missed him a lot while she was in America and couldn't help but ponder if he had missed her also..
She reached into her purse and pulled out a couple of pictures they took before she left to America and some of her last days in America. She looked at the first picture and couldn't help but let out a small laugh.
"I looked like such a dork back then." She looked over the picture of her a week before leaving Japan. She had really thick glasses, and her hair was a mess. Her clothes didn't match, and one of her shoes were untied. She always did have a great smile, but in the picture she was missing her last baby tooth. She sure was a little messy kid.
She looked at the next picture, one she took before leaving America and compared the two. She grew into a beautiful young lady over the past four years. She was now seventeen, and thankful for it. She no longer needed glasses, and her height changed from 4' 7" to 5' 5". Her body changed a lot with her height. She now had hips with a tiny waist, long legs, a slim body, and as the perverted American boys said it, "a rack". Her smile was now full with pearly whites. She was, as the American guys' put it, "A hot soy-sauce girl". It actually became her nick-name at the American school, 'Soy-Sauce Girl' they would call her and sometimes it absolutely disgusted her.
The next picture was of Sango Takasuni, her best friend from America. She, too, was an exchange student from Tokyo, Japan and had arrived around the same time Kagome did. Since they both lived with the same family, they became like sisters in no time. It made both of each others' stay in America all the more easier because they could communicate in Japanese when they had trouble with the English language. Sango would also be arriving back in Tokyo next week and Kagome couldn't wait to be with her best friend again. She also had to call her tonight to tell her about her day back in Japan.
Kagome laughed at another picture; it was on her 17th Birthday and Kagome currently had cake all over her face from Sango pushing her head into it. Sango was laughing and her other American friends eyes were watering from laughter from the look on the young girls face with a piece of cake in her hand, ready to shove it in Sango's face as payback. That was two weeks ago.
Kagome sighed; she was going to miss her for the week that they were going to be apart. Sango had helped her through everything and even knew of her old friend Inuyasha and how she cried when he didn't call her on her 14th Birthday. She remembered that day so clearly, it literally broke her heart.
FLASHBACK
Kagome was crying on her bed with her head in a pillow. He hadn't called her and he promised her that he would. Even though they hadn't talked in over a months, which never happened, he promised her and now he broke it. What had happened to their friendship, he said they would never lose touch.
"Kagome, are you ok?" There was a knock at the door as Sango opened the door to Kagome's room. She looked down at her friend, her head lost in the pillow, muffling her cries. She walked over to her friend, sitting beside her on the bed. Kagome turned towards Sango, tears in her eyes.
"He promised me, and he broke it! Mom, Grandpa, and Souta called me, even Aunt Sami called me and I haven't talked to her in forever. What happened between us. He said we would never lose touch and all of a sudden he just stops calling…What did I do!" She threw her head back into the pillow as Sango rubbed her back in gentle circles. "Every time I call, they say he's not there and hang up." She muffled through the pillow.
"Kagome, it's just a boy. Don't let your Birthday be ruined because some jerk didn't call you. He probably lost track of time, remember the time differences between California and Japan.." She looked at her friend through comforting eyes as Kagome sat up, wiping the tears from her eyes. "Now come on, all your friends are waiting down stairs and you have a lot of presents to open." She smiled at her teary friend and earned a small smile back. Sango hugged Kagome and they held each other for a few moments. Kagome pulled back looking at her new best friend.
"Thanks Sango, you're always there for me." She gave her friend one more hug before taking a deep breath, "Screw that jerk, I'm ready."
"Ok, lets go." Sango said and helped her friends off her bed. Kagome sniffled a little and did her best to smile as they made their way down the stairs. Kagome never heard from Inuyasha after the call about a month ago. Her heart broke that day, and she probably would never be able to fix it.
END FLASHBACK
'I wonder why he quit calling me?' Kagome sighed as she remembered the last day they talked. They had talked for hours, catching up on what happened over the two days they didn't talk to each other and then said bye to each other, then he just quit calling. When she got back, she was going to have to ask him about that, if he was still even living in Tokyo. Her mother never talked about Inuyasha when she moved to America and when Kagome would ask about him she would just say 'He's fine.'
She took out another picture; it was Inuyasha. His displayed his usual scowl , and arms crossed in his usual fashion. He was missing one fang from when him and Kouga got into a fight. His silver hair was combed back neatly and his golden eyes stared at her. He was only 13 in the picture, but for a thirteen year old, he was pretty handsome. His cute dog ears poked out from his head. She only got to touch them once in her life, but when she did, she ended up on the floor with him over her, his eyes blood red. He didn't even know what had happened, but asked her never to touch them again. It was the only time she ever felt somewhat afraid of him.
He looked so cute back then, she wondered what he might look like now. He should be about eighteen. She had never really thought of him of being attractive back then, she was only twelve, but now, would she be attracted to him now? He was her best friend back then, but would they still be friends when she got back? Would anything change? Would he even be there still? Over the year that they did talk, they never spoke of that accidental kiss that took her first kiss away.
"We will be arriving at Tokyo Airlines in 10 minutes, please return to your seat and fasten your seatbelts as we prepare to land. Please turn off all electronically devices." The airline attendant announced over the speaker.
Kagome put the pictures back into her purse, and got her things together. She looked out the window to the valley below, it felt so good to be back home. She could see the rice fields on the outskirts of Tokyo. They looked like building blocks from how high she was. The "Fasten Seatbelt" button came on and she felt the plane descend through the sky.
She was finally home.
