"Feeling tensed?"
"Nah. But are you sure that she will be here?"
"If she loves you, then definitely."
Inuyasha sighed in response. Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw his elder half brother Sesshomaru look at him with something akin to sympathy in his eyes. He wished desperately that she would be here. He had so much to tell her. He had always been such a fool. To have let her slip through his fingers every time. But this time it would be different. He wouldn't make either of them suffer any longer. It was time to let her know of his true feelings…………………………and hers too maybe……
"Inuyasha, relax. She will be here."
Inuyasha looked at Sesshomaru. I sure hope so.
"Lord Sesshomaru?" a crisp old voice inquired.
"What is it Jaken?" Sesshomaru replied wearily.
"I think you might want to see this."
Not hearing his brother reply, Inuyasha looked up and followed his brother's line of vision. The Limo Television was on and they showed the live party at Los Angeles. Kouga Wolfe gaining custody of the Ookami Electronics. What he saw next made his heart drop. There on Kouga's arm was his beautiful best friend Kagome looking as radiant as the sun…………..She is not going to be able to make it. She is NOT coming.
"She is not coming." Declared Inuyasha confidently before Sesshomaru could say anything.
Sesshomaru opened his mouth and then closed it again reconsidering his brother's words. It was HUMANLY impossible for the girl to travel half way through the world in 10 minutes. She was in Los Angeles, America and they were in Japan, shooting their first duet album. The fans had almost gone berserk when they heard rumors that Japan's two MOST eligible RICH bachelors were in a duet together……moreover the fact they were brothers. Sesshomaru inwardly shuddered at the thought of the SCREAMING and hysterical fan girls.
"We love you Sesshy…!!"
"Marry me Sesshy-kun"
"KAWAII!"
"I LOVE YOU!! Sesshomaru Takahashi!"
"Five minutes" the host announced.
"You sure about this Yash?"
"Yea……." This is for you Kagome Higurashi.
Sesshomaru took a deep breath and said in his deep masculine voice
"We will be performing 'She Will Be Loved' by Maroon 5'. As soon as his voice reached the speakers, there was uproar and the overly-crazed fan girls started screaming and few of them even burst into tears. How hysterical………
"I give you the Takahashis"
Sesshomaru literally thought that everyone went mad. The screams, shrieks, were driving him nuts. He looked at Inuyasha who was smiling painfully. He sighed. His brother could be such a loser. But then again, Kagome WAS a very special woman. He really couldn't blame his brother. As the cue began to play, Sesshomaru cleared his voice and began
Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else
Sesshomaru stopped and cast a side glance at his younger brother. Inuyasha swallowed and continued
I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
TOGETHER: And she will be loved
She will be loved
Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I know I tend to get so insecure
It doesn't matter anymore
It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
TOGETHER: And she will be loved
She will be loved
I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls
Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
TOGETHER: And she will be loved
She will be loved
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
TOGETHER: Try so hard to say goodbye
Inuyasha sighed. She hadn't come. A little part of his brain rejoiced that what he had thought had been correct. But the disappointment was too much.
What the two brothers failed to notice was a slim figure hidden behind the entrance door, a lone tear falling down her cheek as she smiled a smile that was invisible to all except her.
