Love Will Always Find A Way
Chapter Four: Inuyasha's Ex
Kagome had reached the office and much to her surprise three of her teachers were there with Kaede, and the man – Inuyasha – that she had met at the hardware store. "What's going on?" Was the first thing she could think of to say. Inuyasha just smirked when she walked in and laughed at her shocked expression.
"Kagome, Inuyasha came here to talk to me about giving ye the rest of the week off." Kaede began but Kagome interrupted her.
"What?!" Kagome half yelled. "I can't, I have my perfect attendance award to worry about!" She turned to look at Inuyasha and glared, he gulped in return. "I told you about that." She said coldly.
"Kagome." Akuji began. "We already discussed about that and agreed you could still get the award, we could just say that you were volunteering some where."
"But that's a lie!" Kagome said. "I've never lied to anyone in my life. If I were to get the rest of the week off I don't deserve the award!" Kagome said and Inuyasha was shocked at her reaction to this. "Why on Earth would you allow this Kaede?" Kagome asked her principal.
"Well Kagome, Inuyasha here once saved our school, and we owe him a favour in return and this is how he would like us to return the favour." Kaede said.
Kagome turned her gaze towards Inuyasha. "And how is this a favour for you?"
"I want to spend some time with you." He said calmly.
"Why? We just met." Kagome stated. Inuyasha just shrugged his shoulders in response. "Unless you can answer that question I won't accept the offer." Kagome stated. "I'd be lying for no purpose, and it'd be the first lie I would ever tell!"
"There's no way I can answer that question without you thinking I'm totally nuts!" Inuyasha said in response.
"Try me!" Kagome said with her hands on her hips glaring at him.
Inuyasha sighed. "I want to get to know you, because I may want you to be my girlfriend, and I wouldn't stand a chance at that unless I spend some time with you." He said.
"Girl… Girlfriend?" Kagome asked shocked.
Inuyasha smirked. "Yeah girlfriend."
"And what makes you think I even want a boyfriend? I have school to attend." She stated. "And that's far more important to me than dating some guy I just met!" She said.
"Well high school's almost over." Inuyasha said.
Kaede, Akuji and Kagome's teachers were watching this with amusement. "So what? I still have University afterwards; I'll be far too busy for a boyfriend." She said.
Inuyasha was shocked. Most girls he knew would die to date him. But this girl absolutely turned down any chance that it would ever happen. This made him want her even more. I wonder if she knew this. "Expecting a scholarship for University?" He asked.
"What does that have to do with this conversation?" She asked eyeing him down. "And as a matter of fact yes I do!" She said.
"It really doesn't, but it would be nice to have a boyfriend that would support you through University, wouldn't it?" He asked.
"What do you mean 'support' me through it?" She asked.
"Well, even if you get in for free, there's still a lot you would have to pay. Heck even just a close friend." He said.
"Are you trying to bribe me?" She asked.
"No, not at all. Are you implying that I am?" He asked.
"How the hell are you turning this around on me?" She asked.
Inuyasha laughed. "I'm a lawyer, it's what I do."
"Lawyer?" She asked and he nodded with a smirk. "How old are you? To be a lawyer you must be at least twenty-four!" She said.
"I'm twenty-one." He said with a cocky grin.
"How? No way could you complete all the years of University and Law school you would have to go to so fast!"
"Maybe I'm smarter than you think I am. Are you insisting I am stupid?" He asked.
"Stop turning everything around on me!" Kagome pleaded. "I said no such thing! It's just impossible! Even with my grades I couldn't possibly do that!"
"Well maybe I'm a bit smarter than you." He responded. And she glared at that statement. "What? No one can be smarter than you? Or, no man can be?" He asked.
"I never said that!" She argued.
"Well that's debateable." He said. "And to answer your question on how I did it, I always got perfect marks, not attendance though." He said while laughing. "I always one-upped my teachers, and so I passed a lot faster and got my degree." He said with a smirk. Kagome was amazed; he was drop dead gorgeous, rich and smart? What planet is he from?
Kagome was so shocked she couldn't even retaliate against his argument. "I don't know what to say." She said. He laughed at her a bit.
"Kagome it's true what he's saying. And since you want to be a lawyer as well, these two days could do you some good. He could help you out you know." Ms. Niigata said.
"You want to a lawyer?" He asked her raising one eye brow. She nodded. "You're going to have to work on your arguments with people. I barely had to say anything and I got you speechless. In court you would've lost by now." He stated.
"Shut up!" She protested.
"That talk also isn't allowed in a courtroom." He said smugly. She just glared at him. "If you agree to spend the rest of the week with me, I could teach you some 'tricks' on always winning a debate." He said.
"But, I'd be lying." She said.
"Grow a backbone girl. Besides it could always be considered as a form of co-op." He said. "Since I am teaching a few things about the career you're interested in." He stated.
She sighed knowing she was losing the argument. "Fine." She said lowly. "But how do I know I can trust you not to kill me?" She asked. And he laughed at this.
"Ask any of the teachers at this school about me. They won't say one bad thing about me…" He said. "Well. Except my attendance. Oh and Mr. Hyime don't like me at all." He said laughing remembering how much he tormented that teacher.
"Why doesn't Mr. Hyime like you?" Kagome asked curious.
"He tortured that teacher to no end. It was quite funny." Mr. Gujo said.
"He was a pervert!" Inuyasha said defending himself. "Every time my girlfriend got a visitor's pass to spend the day at school with me he'd like eye her breasts or something. So I made the year a living hell for him!" Inuyasha declared.
"Oh." Kagome said. "I didn't like him very much last year either." Kagome shuddered at the thought of her classes with him.
"Why?" Inuyasha asked.
"She always complained about him asking her to do him sexual favours. But we never caught him doing it, so we couldn't catch him. Plus nothing happened and no other students complained about him." Kaede said.
Inuyasha was fuming. "I'll kill him."
Kagome's eyes widened as his eyes began going bloodshot and purple streaks appeared on his cheeks. 'So this is his flaw. He has a short temper and cannot control his demon essence.' Kagome thought.
"Did he ever touch you? Or another student?" Inuyasha asked Kagome. Kagome shook her head in fear.
Even though her answer was no, his transformation did not stop. "Inuyasha." Kagome said. "Inuyasha, calm down." She cooed. But nothing worked.
Kaede pulled out a bead necklace and put it around her hands and chanted a spell, once she was done the beads flew around Inuyasha's neck. "Kagome say a word of subjugation." Kaede demanded.
"A word of what?" She asked.
"Of subjugation, a word to capture his soul." Kaede said.
"Um okay?" She said. 'A word to capture his soul, what would that be?' She thought. She was running out of time, his transformation was almost complete. She looked at his dog ears. 'I got it!' She thought. "Um, sit boy?" Once those words escaped her mouth, the necklace made Inuyasha smash into the ground. "Oh my god. Inuyasha are you okay? I'm sorry!" She said running to him and kneeling down next to him.
When he sat up he couldn't even look Kagome in the eye. "I'm, I'm okay. Sorry about that." He said. "And what the fuck is this?" He said trying to take the necklace off but it refused to come off.
"Inuyasha they are beads of subjugation. If I didn't put them on ye, ye would have gone on a killing spree." Kaede stated. "They cannot come off unless I or Kagome remove them." She said. "And to be honest, they shouldn't come off… Just in case."
"What?" Inuyasha exclaimed. "So every time she says 'sit' I have to greet the floor with a face plant?" Inuyasha asked with a hint of anger.
"Yes." Was Kaede's only response.
Inuyasha just glared at her. "Stupid hag." He muttered. Kagome smacked him upside the head and glared at him.
"If you even think you could be my boyfriend, heck or even a close friend you should learn to be more respectful!" Kagome said. "Plus, I will refrain from saying si… The 's' word." Kagome said quickly correcting herself.
Inuyasha sighed. "Uhg, you better, I don't feel like plummeting to ground every time I hear you say sit." Inuyasha said standing than helping Kagome up.
"By the way, what was that about? You can't control your demon essence when you're angry?" Kagome asked.
"Demon essence?" Inuyasha asked, soon after realizing she didn't know he was only half demon.
"Kagome, Inuyasha is only a half demon, his demon half is sometimes too strong for him to control." Kaede said.
"You're only half demon?" She asked. Inuyasha just averted her gaze and nodded. "Are you ashamed or something?" Kagome asked trying to get him to look over at her. He just nodded in response. "I won't think any different of you just because you're half demon, or half human or how ever you want to say it." Kagome said.
Inuyasha's eyes finally met with her gaze. He was shocked though and Kagome saw that. "Why are you so shocked?" She asked.
"Not many people look past that. Yeah I have met people who have, but it's rare to find." He said.
"Well I'm not like everybody else, you'll soon realize that." Kagome said smiling.
Right after she said that the school's bell rang signalling the end of the school day. Kagome screeched. "I miss all of last period!" She said slumping down to her knees. Inuyasha raised his eye brow.
"You're too pure Kagome." Inuyasha said. She stood right up after he said that and was in his face.
"Well excuse me Mr. Smart Ass, but I actually like showing up to class!" She said.
Inuyasha laughed. "It wasn't meant as an insult. Now let's go to your locker."
"Huh? Wait you're coming with me? I told you I was busy after school today." Kagome stated.
"I know." He said laughing. "Does that mean I cannot walk with you to your locker?" He asked.
"Oh, um okay?" She said while blushing from embarrassment. Kaede smiled at the two.
"Thanks Kaede!" Inuyasha said smiling.
"No problem Inuyasha, just she has to come to school Monday." Kaede stated.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah I know." He said walking out of the office with his arm linked in Kagome's.
They finally reached Kagome's locker and she got her stuff and Inuyasha was wondering why they were still standing by her locker. "Um Kagome? You got your stuff, why are we still standing here?" Inuyasha asked her.
"Well, I'm waiting for Sango. Her locker's right here next to mine." Kagome said while looking down the hall for her friend.
"Oh." Inuyasha said. Than he stiffened.
"What's wrong Inuyasha?" Kagome asked noticing Inuyasha went tense.
"Shit, I forgot, my ex girlfriend still goes to this school. And she's headed this way." Inuyasha said.
"You don't want her to notice you?" Kagome asked.
"She's obsessed with me. So no, I do not want her to see me!" Inuyasha said.
Kagome quickly opened her locker and pulled out a necklace with a paw print on it. "This will have to do." She said and held it to her chest and chanted something.
'Oh god another spell necklace.' Inuyasha thought.
She quickly put the necklace around Inuyasha and immediately his hair turned black and his to a dark shade of violet.
"What the fuck?" Inuyasha asked.
Kagome was amazed. 'Wow he looks good both as a half demon and a human.' Kagome thought. "It's a spell as long as you are wearing this necklace you'll look like a human." Kagome said. "She never saw you as a human right?" Inuyasha shook his head. "So you should be in the clear." She said.
"Where did you learn this spell?" He asked.
"Well I come from a long line of priestesses so I know many spells." Kagome said shutting her locker.
"Oh." Inuyasha said. "Fuck." Was the last thing that he said before his ex girlfriend walked up to Kagome.
"Hey tramp." She said. "I see you have a boyfriend huh? What pathetic idiot would ever go for you?" She asked.
"Shut up Kinky-Ho." Kagome shot back. "And he's just a friend, so if you wouldn't mind leaving us alone!"
"Leave you two alone? I thought you were just friends? Why would you need some privacy if you two aren't dating?"
"I'm waiting for Sango idiot." Kagome said glaring at her. Inuyasha just kept looking between the two of them.
'So she knows her? And hates her? Wow one similarity already…' Inuyasha thought.
Kikyo diverted her attention towards Inuyasha. "So cutie, why is a guy like you talking to a girl like her?" Kikyo asked him. He just glared at her in response and said nothing. "No answer? Too ashamed, or did you just realize you could have someone better like me?" Inuyasha just raised an eye brow at her as if to say are-you-fucking-kidding-me-you're-a-slut.
"Kinky-Ho, leave him the fuck alone." Kagome said glaring at her.
"Oh, are you scared because you know I could take him away from you?" She asked smirking.
"Ha! Highly doubt that gesture." Kagome said.
"Hey Kags sorry I'm late was finishing up my project." Sango said opening her locker and throwing many things into and grabbing her backpack and slamming in shut. "So ready to go?" She asked out of breath.
"Sango are you okay?" Kagome asked laughing.
"I ran all the way," she said panting, "from wood shop," pants again, "to here."
Kagome laughed at her friend. "Okay let's go."
But before she could leave Kikyo slammed Kagome into her locker hurting Kagome's back in the process. "You little tramp, if I ever see you with another guy I'll personally have your head." She yelled and let go of her shoulders having Kagome slide down the lockers in pain. Usually Sango would be the first beside her, but this time Inuyasha beat her to it. Sango felt a little hurt, she was always the one to be first to Kagome's aid.
"Are you okay?" Inuyasha asked Kagome.
"I'm fine don't worry; I've dealt with much worse." Kagome said as Inuyasha helped her up. Kikyo glared at her.
"Kinky-Ho, don't you think threatening Kagome is one of the stupidest things to do? Her miko powers are far greater than yours! Plus if you ever touch her again I'll personally kill you with my own sword! And she can talk to any guy she feels like!" Sango snapped at Kikyo.
"Any guy?" Kikyo asked. "She doesn't deserve one as hot as him. Besides, she could never date or talk to any guy she feels like."
"Any why not?" Sango asked.
"Because many are my ex boyfriends, and none would want her after having me. I don't care if she were to have my sloppy seconds, but they wouldn't want her." Kikyo said. But than thought about what she had said. "But, if you ever think, and I mean ever think about dating my ex Inuyasha, I will kill you! And that's a promise." Kikyo said.
Kagome's eyes widened. "So what? You're saying that your one precious ex boyfriend, Inuyasha would date her?" Sango asked.
"Highly doubt it." Kikyo responded and walked away. Sango quickly turned around and hugged Kagome.
"You sure you're alright Kags?" She asked. Kagome nodded. "Good, and by the way… Who's he?" She asked pointing to Inuyasha.
"This is..." Kagome was cut off by Inuyasha.
"Dream boy with her dream car." Inuyasha said smirking as Kagome's eyes widened.
"How did you know I called you that?" Kagome asked.
"I was sitting in my car a bit before lunch and over heard you talking to your friend Sango here about me." He said smirking.
"Your car?" Kagome asked. "I didn't see any Mercedes around." Kagome said. Inuyasha just laughed.
"Don't worry about it." He said. But Kagome eyed him suspiciously.
"So this is dream boy." Sango said smiling. "So does dream boy have a name yet?" Sango said smirking as Kagome hit her.
"Yeah, Inuyasha." He said laughing as Sango's eyes widened and she burst into laughter.
"Kags, you know Kinky-Ho's going to throw a fit… But wait? What? How come she didn't recognize you?" Sango asked. Inuyasha pointed to the paw print necklace. And Sango looked at Kagome. "Spell necklace?" And Kagome nodded. "So you're a demon?" She asked him.
"Yeah, well half." He said.
"A Hanyou?" She asked.
"Yeah."
After some chatting they reached the school parking lot and Kagome was looking for her dream car. "Did you walk here? I don't see your car." Kagome said.
"Huh?" Inuyasha asked.
"Mercedes SLR McLaren. I don't see it." She said.
Inuyasha laughed. "My Mercedes is merely one of the cars I own." He said while pulling out the keys to his Red Cadillac and unlocking it.
Kagome's and Sango's jaws dropped. "Two beautiful cars?" Sango asked. "What do you do for a living?" She asked.
"I'm a lawyer." He said smugly.
"I guess that makes sense." Sango said.
"So you two need a ride home? Or to the mall? Or some where?" Inuyasha asked.
"Can you drive us to each other's house and than to mall?" Kagome asked shyly.
Inuyasha smiled. "Yeah no problem." He said and than smirked.
"What do you want?" Kagome asked him.
"Nothing, maybe just one more kiss." He said looking away innocently. Kagome blushed.
"Wait what? Another?" Sango asked.
"Yeah she gave me one when I dropped her off for school… She didn't tell you that part?"
Sango smirked at Kagome. "So Kags, what are you waiting for? Kiss him, again."
"Sango do not torment me with this!" She said.
"Torment?" Sango asked. Kagome just glared at her.
"One kiss won't hurt you. You should know that, did it hurt last time?" Inuyasha stated/asked.
"Oh fuck off!" Kagome said. "Uhg, fine." She said walking up to him, he pulled her closer to him as Sango watched with amusement.
He whispered to her, "more than just a peck this time." Kagome eyes widened but before she could protest his lips met her and gasped which gave Inuyasha the opportunity to slip his tongue inside her mouth. Kagome melted into his arms, closed her eyes, and kissed him back. When they broke apart Kagome was both breathless and speechless. Inuyasha just smirked at this. "Okay hop in." Inuyasha said opening the passenger side door for Kagome and once Kagome was in he shut the door and opened the other for Sango and waited for her to get in. Once she was in he closed that door and hopped into the driver's seat. "So who's place first?"
"Mine, it's closest." Sango said and told him where to go. After Sango had dropped her stuff off and they went to Kagome's place. She told him to go to the Higurashi shrine and so they went there and she dropped off her stuff as well and than they were headed to the mall.
