Chapter Four- This is NOT happening…right?
"MIROKU!" Came a girl's shriek. "OF ALL THE THINGS TO BET!"
"I think that's your cue to run." Koga stated, after taking a sip of sake. Miroku nodded and ran out the kitchen and into the dining room, to see Kagome glared at him, face red.
"MI—RO—KU!"
"Kagome! I didn't see you there!" Kagome started growling, and Miroku ran away, back into the kitchen, and into the living room to see InuYasha in boxers, also not happy.
"InuYasha! So. How was it?" Miroku asked. InuYasha's glare became sharper, and Miroku's courage dimmed.
"How was it, you ask, Miroku? I'll tell you how it was…" InuYasha growled through his teeth. "I was slapped hard a lot of times—."
"Four times!" Kagome corrected.
"SHUT UP!" InuYasha yelled back. "Four times, by someone I didn't even know could slap so hard—."
"Serves you right." Kagome said, coming out from the kitchen to the two.
"Shut your trap." InuYasha turned back to Miroku. "AND, I got kicked in my fucking cock. HARD."
"Well," Kagome interrupted again. "If it wasn't so big, I might have missed and kick your leg instead. It's your own fault." The gang in the kitchen couldn't help but laugh out loud. Koga was laughing the loudest. InuYasha's face was red, and he was growling. He glared at Miroku and Kagome.
"You." He pointed to Miroku. "When I'm done with the bet, you watch out. And you." He pointed to Kagome, who just crossed her arms and glared back.
"What?"
"You are going to let me finish my damn bet, bitch." Kagome glared at him.
"I'll kick you there again." Kagome threatened.
"You—." InuYasha was interrupted. Again.
"So Kagome." Koga said, coming from the kitchen. "How big was it?" Kagome blinked.
"Why are you asking me?"
"Just wondering." Koga replied, shrugging.
"It was huge! I mean, I don't think it'll fit…" Koga burst our laughing, rolling on the floor.
"SHUT THE HELL UP!"
Silence. InuYasha pulled Kagome back upstairs by the arm.
……………………………………………………………
God…I feel so painful… what happened? Kagome opened her eyes. The sun was coming from a window and the light went into her eyes. She shut them up tight again, and pulled the covers.
Hold on… these aren't my covers…this isn't my bed…Kagome quickly sat up. She saw herself naked in an unknown bed, and there was a lump next to her. Kagome pulled the covers, and saw a naked and asleep InuYasha. He mumbled.
"Wake me up later Sesshy." Kagome's eyes widened and he turned around, now facing her.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Huh? What happened?" Kagome pulled up the sheets to cover her body and glared at him.
"That's what I was going to ask you!" InuYasha scratched his head, blinked a few times and wiggled his ears.
Hey… he's kinda cute—No. He's a murderer… I can't like him…
"How the fuck would I know?" Kagome groaned and fell back on the pillow. InuYasha yawned.
"At least I did my part. Now I can punch Miroku into hell, and everything will be fine." Kagome sat back up and glared at him.
"Everything's not fine. I lost my virginity to a gang leader/rapist/molester/murderer!" InuYasha gawked.
"You were a virgin?"
"Duh."
"Exactly how old are you again?"
"I'm turning eighteen in three weeks." InuYasha's jaw dropped. "What?"
"You were a goddamn virgin for that long?" Kagome eyed him.
"What do you mean 'that long'?" InuYasha rolled his eyes.
"Most girls lose their damn purity at fifteen." Kagome's eyes widened as a knock sounded at the door before it was opened.
"Sorry for intruding InuYasha-Sama…" Miroku stopped after seeing the two, and then smirked. "So Kagome… did it fit?"
SLAP
PUNCH
KICK
THUD
"Think twice before you say something like that you bastard." InuYasha yelled. Miroku got up from the floor.
"Sorry InuYasha. Just had to ask." InuYasha eyed him.
"I'm not done with you yet. When I'm dressed, you better watch out." Miroku took this as his cue to run downstairs and hide. Preferably behind Koga.
InuYasha turned around and saw Kagome blushing really bad.
She's kinda cute when she blushes… her eyes are—No. I cannot think like this again. InuYasha shook his head, and Kagome cocked hers.
"Something the matter?" InuYasha stopped shaking.
"Keh." InuYasha took his clothes, and went into the bathroom. Kagome sighed and fell back on the pillow.
I cannot believe I might like him. I cannot believe that this happened. I cannot believe anything that's been happening the past two days. And on top of all that, I still have my homework to do! GAH… maybe I'll take a day off of school so I won't get caught with unfinished homework…but grades are finalized for the semester in two weeks. What a great birthday gift. Kagome sighed.
Mom…what do I do now? I mean…Kagome sat up, and screamed. Next thing that happened: InuYasha knocked the bathroom door down and jumped to Kagome.
"What's wrong?" Kagome swallowed lifting her shaking finger, and pointed to the wall. InuYasha looked at where she was pointing, and then glared at her. "I thought something was wrong!" InuYasha yelled.
"There is something wrong!" Kagome countered. "A spider's not supposed to be in the bedroom!" InuYasha growled. This girl is such an annoying…fucking words can't even describe her…
"It's a spider! Just squish it!"
"EW! I'm not doing that!" InuYasha growled and went back to the bathroom.
"AH! It's climbing down the wall! It's coming toward ME!" Kagome shrieked.
"Oh shut your trap! It's a spider! If you're so scared, just run out of the damn room!" InuYasha yelled from the bathroom.
"I can't run out naked!"
"Then get dressed!"
"But my clothes are on the floor where the spider is!"
"Fuck that! Just grab it!"
"You want me to grab the spider?" Kagome shrieked. "Are you OUT OF YOUR MIND?"
"Not the spider! YOUR CLOTHES!" InuYasha said coming out of the bathroom and leaning against the doorframe. "God, you're so stupid." Kagome bit her bottom lip.
"Can you get it for me?" Kagome asked. InuYasha glared at her with his arms crossed.
"Get it yourself. I'm not your damn servant." Kagome whimpered, and InuYasha's face softened.
Damn it… now she's crying…WHY ME GODDAMN IT?
"EEK! It's… coming… Oh my god… oh my god… oh my—." Kagome stopped when she saw a shoe come down and step on it.
"Happy now? You can drive everyone here crazy." InuYasha muttered and walked away. Kagome blushed and got out of bed.
"Thank you." She muttered. InuYasha didn't say anything and walked out as Kagome got dressed.
………………………………………………………
A few days past, and Wednesday came. Kagome was going to her homeroom. She sighed and sat down just as the bell rang. The teacher came in and the announcements began.
Next Friday is the promotion for all the seniors. Please vote on Prom King and Queen for the upcoming dance. In other news, our school's softball team lost again zero to eight. Nothing new. That is all.
Kagome rolled her eyes, and her teacher started the lesson. Kagome started dozing off, when the teacher called her.
"Higurashi!" Kagome stood up.
"Ai, sensei."
"Tell me Theorem 4.8, the Hypotenuse Leg Theorem." Kagome looked at the book, but didn't find anything.
"Well… um. Theorem 4.8…" Kagome said, stalling while flipping through the pages. "Theorem 4.8… Theorem of the Legged Hypotenuse… umm… well. Theorem 4.8…" Kagome was about to make something up, when someone burst through the door.
"I'm here to pick up Kagome Higurashi." InuYasha said bluntly. Everyone's eyes turned to Kagome. The teacher didn't look pleased.
"Who are you?" InuYasha smiled.
"My name is not important. I need to take Kagome for an important meeting."
"Kagome, do you know him?" Kagome paused. "Yes, sensei." Kagome packed her stuff and left her seat. InuYasha was about to take her out, when the teacher stopped him.
"I'm sorry, but I need to know your name before you escort a student out." InuYasha growled, and Kagome stepped in.
"His name is Souta." InuYasha stared at her, and Kagome gave him a look that said 'play-along-damn-it'.
"Souta? Last name?" Kagome's mind raced.
"Tahashi. Souta Tahashi." The teacher gave her a suspicious look, but let them go anyways.
…………………………………………
"Souta Tahashi?" InuYasha asked. Kagome shrugged.
"Souta was a random name, and Tahashi is a shortened version of your name." InuYasha rolled his eyes and got on his motorcycle. Kagome stood there.
"Get on damn it."
"Where're you taking me?"
"We have a gang meeting in half an hour, so we're going to Miroku's place again." Kagome slumped, and then got on.
"Why couldn't you schedule a meeting after my school ends?" Kagome whined. InuYasha started the motorcycle.
"Why would I care? Frankly, I think any other person would be glad to be taken out of class. And for Advanced Geometry too."
"Don't you care about grades?" Kagome asked as InuYasha drove off. He smirked.
"You're talking to a high school dropout, wench." Kagome rolled her eyes.
"So." InuYasha yelled, so Kagome could hear. "Why did you help cover up my name?" Kagome smiled.
"Cause you killed the spider." InuYasha sighed as the light turned green and they drove off again.
"Figures." He said, shaking his head.
"Hey!" Kagome yelled, but InuYasha ignored her. He just sped up, and Kagome gripped tighter around his waist. Kagome was surprised how fit he was. His waist was so small… just like hers. Soon, they arrived at Miroku's, and InuYasha stopped. Kagome got off quickly with her school bag, and InuYasha got off after. He turned to face Kagome with his face screwed.
"What?" Kagome asked. InuYasha leaned over and sniffed at her.
"No way…" InuYasha muttered. Kagome stared at him.
"What?" InuYasha opened his mouth, but no words came out. Kagome grew impatient.
"What?" She asked again. InuYasha sighed.
"You'll find out." InuYasha said, and walked toward Miroku's front door. Kagome followed him.
"Tell me!" InuYasha didn't say anything. "TELL ME!" InuYasha stopped in front of the door, and Kagome almost bumped into him as he turned around.
"Don't fucking tell anyone." He warned. Kagome nodded her head. InuYasha growled, and looked away.
"So? What is it?" Kagome asked. InuYasha turned and faced her with a frown.
"You're pregnant."
………………………………………………………………………
Miroku and Koga got out all the sake and up them on the table for the meeting. They got some beer and alcohol as well, but mostly sake. Sango arrived with Shippo, and Ginta arrived with Hakkaku not long after.
"Where's InuYasha?" Shippo asked. Miroku smiled.
"He went to get Kagome for the meeting." Everyone took a space in the couch as Menomaru, Hiten, Manten, and Ayame arrived. Ayame took a seat next to Koga, who ended up sitting on his lap. Bankotsu and Suikotsu came after a few beers were gone.
"Sorry we're late, InuYasha-Sama." Suikotsu said as they arrived.
"InuYasha isn't here yet." Koga replied bluntly. After a few good minutes of talking and drinking, they heard something outside.
"WHAAAAAAAAAT?" Miroku got up and headed for the door.
"Must be Kagome and InuYasha." He announced. They all nodded in agreement as Miroku unlocked the door.
………………………………………………………………………
"Do you have to shout so loud? My ears are sensitive, ya know." InuYasha complained.
"Of all the things! You had to do this to me!" Kagome said, glaring at him with fogged up eyes.
"Don't blame me! Blame Miroku!" InuYasha shouted back. The door swung open, and the two turned to see Miroku.
"Blame me for what?" He said with a grin. InuYasha looked like he could kill, and Kagome looked like she was about to have a break-down. Miroku just smiled innocently, and walked away. InuYasha and Kagome got in and InuYasha slammed the door behind them. Miroku sat back down on one of the couches, as InuYasha came into view with a mad Kagome. Everyone decided to not ask any questions. He growled, and then sighed.
"Meeting will start later. Knock yourselves out." He waved his hand in back of him and left the gang with Kagome.
"What's going on?" Ginta asked.
"I don't know." Hakkaku replied.
"You don't know anything." Koga retorted. Ayame giggled. Ginta and Hakkaku gave him a cold stare as they took sake from the table. Hiten and Manten joined, along with Suikotsu. Bankotsu didn't take anything, but polish his Banryuu. Menomaru stared at him.
"I swear you're in love with that thing." Bankotsu glared at him.
"PERVERT!"
SLAP.
"That's gotta hurt." Shippo commented.
………………………………………………………………
InuYasha took Kagome back to the same bedroom that they slept in on Saturday. Kagome sat down, and InuYasha stayed standing.
"We're going to abort." InuYasha said.
"NO!" Kagome countered.
"Why not?"
"I'm not going to kill some new baby that's inside of me just because you don't want it!" Kagome shouted.
"Of course I want them! It's you who doesn't!" Kagome paused.
"Them?"
"Twins. I dunno the gender, but we have a pair of fucking twins." Kagome gawked.
"Either way, we are NOT aborting." Kagome fumed.
"Fine. Whatever."
"But the twins might be defected." InuYasha turned to her.
"What do you mean?" Kagome glared at him.
"What do you mean, what do I mean? How many drugs have you taken? Even once counts." InuYasha sighed.
"Okay. I've tried cigarettes, hated them. Then marijuana, pot, tobacco, and all that crap. Didn't like smoking anything. They tasted like shit. Then I had some 'inhalants'. Someone gave me ecstasy once, but that didn't really effect me. I started drinking sake when I was five, alcohol when I was thirteen, and beer when I dropped out of high school three years ago. Before that I've taken heroin before. I've wanted to try steroids, but it smelled like shit, so I left that alone. Besides that I've also had speed, Ionamin, crack cocaine, cigars, binge drinks, but I usually just drink a lot of booze. You know, wine, beer, sake, alcohol, champagne, and all that stuff…" Kagome's head was spinning with all those drugs. She sighed.
"It'll be a miracle if the twins come out healthy and problem-free." Kagome groaned. InuYasha rolled his eyes.
"They'll be fine. Demons have a faster and stronger metabolism. Our DNA also changes everyday, to keep ourselves living. So, I should think that the kids will be fine." He concluded.
"How did this happen?" Kagome asked. InuYasha shrugged. Kagome laid down on the bed.
"I'm so lost…" Kagome muttered. "I need you right now."
"Are you talking to me?" InuYasha asked, quite surprised. Kagome shot him a look.
"No. Just… someone else." Kagome sighed, getting back up.
"Who?"
"Just someone that… never mind." Kagome got up, but InuYasha pulled her back down.
"Tell me, bitch." Kagome gave him a cold stare, but InuYasha's eyes flashed red, and Kagome backed down.
"He was someone who helped me when I was lost a long time ago. I never found him again, but he helped me a lot… and I need his help right now."
"Why?" InuYasha asked, interested.
"Well, my dad died, my mother died, I lost my home, I have a part time job while trying to keep my grades up, I just got into a fierce gang, how I still don't know, and I'm pregnant. Seriously. All these problems come up when my mom leaves. Besides that, I still want to go to college, but I have twins in me, and I'm already an outcast at school. Everyone'll think I'm some whore once they find out I'm pregnant. But this wouldn't have happened if my two best friends didn't move away five months ago." Kagome was in the brim of tears, and InuYasha sat there with a frown. He knew that half the things were his fault. He usually didn't do this… but…
"I'll track him down." He said. Kagome looked up at him.
"What?"
"Do you have anything that belongs to him? If I get his scent, I'll be able to find him." He offered. Kagome paused.
"I have his sweater… but why are you suddenly helping me?"
"Because you didn't tell them my name." Kagome smiled. InuYasha smirked as he got up. "Besides. You have more problems than I have booze." Kagome gave him a playful glare.
"That's exaggerating."
