Cursed
Chapter 3 - Jealousy
--
Inu barked loudly as he heard a knocking at the door. Kagome sighed and walked over to open it. "Coming!" She called out, nearly tripping over her dog on the way. "Hello?" She asked, as she opened the door. Before her stood a boy about her age with long black hair tied up in a ponytail and piercing blue eyes. "K...Kouga..." She breathed out, holding a hand to her chest.
"Hey, Kags." He gave her a charming smile and led himself in. Inu growled and barked at the stranger, making sure the man knew this was not his territory. Kouga looked down at the dog. "I see you got yourself a mutt!" He sneered, kicking Inu aside. Kagome ran to him and pet him softly.
"Kouga... why are you here?" She asked standing up. Kouga plopped down in a chair across from her and stuck his feet up on the coffee table.
"I came by to see the girl I love." He smiled. Kagome gasped.
"What...?" She asked softly. Kouga grunted and stood up on his feet, walking over to Kagome. Inu began to growl again. Kagome just looked down at him and mouthed 'stop'. Inu scoffed and walked away. "What are you talking about, Kouga? You don't love me." Kagome said harshly.
"Ah... Kagome..." Kouga pulled out a daisy from behind him and handed it to her. "I do love you." Kagome scoffed and shoved him away from her.
"Kouga... I didn't come back here to talk to see you. You left, I moved on... end of story." Kagome said, walking into the kitchen to make food for dinner.
Koga stood behind her and tucked a stray lock of hair behind her ear before bending down to whisper in it. "Maybe I want a sequel..." Kagome turned around and glared at him.
"Then what you want and what I want are completely different things." She walked over to Inu's food bowl to try and get away from him again. Inu smelled his dinner and peeped around the corner to see what was going on between the two of them. As Kagome stood up, Kouga grabbed her arms and slammed her into the wall.
"What you and I want are the same thing!" He shouted in her face. "I needed some time, and I realized I do love you so much, Kagome!" Kouga sneered. His grip was tight on her arms.
"Y...you're hurting me..." She managed to breathe out.
"Well you're hurting me too." Kouga said before smashing his lips against Kagome's. Inu took this as his cue and ran into the kitchen, latching his teeth onto Kouga's leg. Kouga broke the kiss, while Kagome fell to the floor. Inu didn't let go. Even through Kouga thrashing his leg, Inu held on tight. Kouga finally kicked Inu onto the wall and managed to get the dog off him.
He reached down and picked up Kagome's chin. "One day... you'll come looking for me, Kags." He said, throwing her head to the side as he let go of her chin. He huffed and ran out the door. Kagome looked over at her fallen dog.
"Inu... are you okay?" She asked, reaching over to pet him. He whined in pain. Kagome bit her lip. "Oh God... please be okay..." She pleaded, picking the dog up and taking him into her room.
"Why did you do that, Inu? You're such a dumb dog..." She said softly as she lay him down on her bed. "Although, it was the nicest thing any...thing has ever done for me." Kagome sighed dreamily. "Sometimes, I wish you were a guy... I know you'd treat me so much better than Kouga did." Inu opened his eyes a bit as Kagome climbed up next to him on the bed. She held his head for a moment, then placed it in her lap and stroked it softly. "Oh well..." She sighed. "I'd choose you over a guy any day." Inu smiled and drifted to sleep.

"AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Inu awoke to the sounds of Kagome's shrill screams.
"What what?" He asked, falling off the bed.
Kagome continued to scream.
"What the hell?" Inu asked himself... noticing he could hear his voice. "Kagome! Stop screaming!"
"How do you know my name?!" She shrieked.
"Because-"
"Who the hell are you?!" Kagome asked, giving him no time to answer.
"Inu-"
"Shut the hell up and get out of my house!" Kagome shouted. Inu walked over to her and Kagome noticed he was stark naked. "Oh my God... GO!! GET OUT!!" Inu was about to protest when he was hit in the head with something and fell to the floor.
"You sneak into my house, know my name, AND don't bother to bring clothes? Did Kouga put you up to this?" Kagome asked, picking his head up by his hair.
"No, Kagome... I'm just as confused as you." Kagome scoffed.
"Really?" She asked. "So, you don't know what happened to my dog?" She asked.
"Well actually, I-"
Kagome picked him up as best she could and slammed him into the wall. "Where's Inu?!" She screamed.
"Right here..." Inu said. Kagome let him go. "It's the story of Inuyasha, Kagome... I'm Inuyasha." Kagome scoffed.
"That's not-" Kagome gasped... 'now I wish I would've believed in it. I owed her that much.'
She looked at the ground, then back up at Inuyasha. "Get out of my house..." She said.
"Kagome, I'm not lying to you... I'm Inuyasha." Kagome hurled some jeans and a T shirt at him.
"I never said I didn't believe you..." Kagome's voice was breaking. She managed to gain control over it and kept a cold glare on her face. "I said 'go'." She said harshly.
Inuyasha got dressed and left out the front door. Kagome fell to the ground, crying.

It was midday and Inuyasha still sat on the porch. He hadn't moved all day. Kagome sighed, and moved her curtain back. 'It's not like he could've told me... but... still... I feel like an idiot for not knowing.' She thought to herself, watching him sit on the porch. He looked exactly as mom described him to be. Long white hair. White fuzzy dog ears. Deep amber eyes. Fangs and claws... he was everything Kagome pictured him to be. 'This can't be real...' Kagome thought, closing her curtain.
Inuyasha sat indian style and rested his chin on his hand. 'Keh! She'll come out here... she'll apologize... she has to.' He sighed and watched an inch worm make it's way across the porch slowly. He gave it a weak smile and looked back at the house. '...But why am I this?' Kikyou's words played back in his head. 'Is this the half dog thing?' He asked himself just as the door swung open. Kagome gave him a blank expression and joined him on the porch. She sat, cross-legged next to him in silence.
"Well, I opened up to you, I think it's your turn now." She said after a few moments. Inuyasha shifted his position.
"What do you want to know?" He asked. Kagome laced her fingers through each other and placed her hands in her lap before giving him an apologetic smile.
"Everything." She said, sounding intrigued. Inuyasha cleared his throat.
"Well... pretty much everything your mom wrote about is the truth." He looked up at the sky. "Kikyou put a curse on me and I was a dog. Now, I'm just this..."
"Well, wait-" Kagome interrupted. Inuyasha turned to look at her. "If my mom's story is correct, then you had to have changed into this form for having feelings for some one..." Kagome started. She watched as Inuyasha's cheeks got a tint of red to them. She giggled.
"Your mom must be wrong there, then..." He said turning away from her to hide his blush. Kagome smiled and turned her attentions to the sky.
"...Inuyasha, right?" Inuyasha faced her and nodded, although she wasn't even turned to him. "Do you want to come inside?" She asked noticing the rain clouds coming in. Inuyasha stood up and held out his clawed hand to help her up.
"Thanks... we can talk inside." She said. "Maybe it'll alter my decision to kick you out." She said jokingly.
"What?!" Inuyasha asked. "Then what was tht apologetic smile all about?"
Kagome laughed. "I'm just kidding, gosh, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha just grumbled under his breath. He suddenly missed being Kagome's pet.
