Chapter 4: Unforgettable
Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru live in a mansion together in a place, owned by them, called The Feudal Village. Only the two brothers live in the big mansion, and here's why:
Sesshoumaru's demon mother died right after giving birth to him, so he never really had the love that Inuyasha's mother always gave him. After two years from Sesshoumaru's mother's death, his father met Inuyasha's human mother, and quickly fell in love with each other. Inuyasha's mother, even though he wasn't her birth son, cherished Sesshoumaru like he was her own. Sesshoumaru despised her, and looked down on his father for even considering replacing his mother with this pathetic human. But it wasn't his right to interfere.
After Inuyasha was born, Sesshoumaru became fairly interested in how caring and compassionate she was towards him. Sometimes he would become very jealous at the fact that Inuyasha was getting all the attention expect him, because he never knew how a motherly love felt, or a sincere hug or kiss on the forehead. He never had that experience because he never knew his mother …
When Inuyasha was six, his mother died from a mysterious illness; allowing Sesshoumaru to take the elder brother burden more serious than he use to.
When their father dead when Sesshoumaru was in his senior year of high school, he decided to take up the responsibility of elder brother and father to Inuyasha, since he was legal to do so. After high school, he didn't go to college, but immediately worked for his father's company taking the highest chair as President of Japan International.
Now they live together in the big mansion with their own appointed servants: Jaken, servant to Sesshoumaru, and Myoga, servant to Inuyasha.
--------------------
It was now two o'clock, and everyone was at Inuyasha's for rehearsal. Even Sesshoumaru was there only to be with his fiancée, Rin. The bands Youkai and Sakura rehearsed in a giant garage, built just for them, a part from the house. Inside the garage two couches set adjacent to a couple of couch-chairs, stools and regular chairs. On the opposite side of the giant garage their instruments were set up so that they can start practice.
Sango and Ayame sat comfortably on one of the couches. Rin sat close to Sesshoumaru on the other couch. Inuyasha, Miroku, and Kouga were setting up their instruments to prepare for practice. Suddenly, Kagome drove up in her car and joined the others inside.
"Hey you guys! Sorry I'm late." Kagome said as she laid her guitar case down by the entrance of the garage door. Everyone greeted her.
"Well, well, well, nice to see you again Kag." Sesshoumaru said coolly, as he rose from his seat next to Rin to give her a hug.
"Hey Silk, long time no see." Kagome replied. She then turned her attention to Inuyasha, standing behind her.
"Aww. No pink shirt? You looked like a cute little puppy in it, Yasha." Kagome made a pouted face as she mocked Inuyasha. Inuyasha was now wearing a tight fitting grey t-shirt.
"Don't even start with me, Kitten. Inuyasha muffled and growled lowly, glaring at everyone as they laughed.
----------------------
After Youkai played a couple of songs and finished rehearsing, they all gathered together chatting about summer break and different things they did. They all really enjoyed their company. It's always been like this ever since they were younger:
The giant garage was built when Inuyasha was in the 7th grade. His father had gotten him his first guitar when he was 13, and ever since then, he played the hell out of it. His father knew that Inuyasha's passion was playing the guitar, so he decided to build the garage so that Inuyasha and his buddies could jam out and do whatever they felt like. It was kind of like their home outside of home.
Kagome had gotten her 1st guitar around the time Inuyasha did, too, and with Sango and Miroku, they all started a band together, calling themselves Goshinboku, or "God Tree." At the time, Miroku was on drums, and Inuyasha and Kagome played lead guitarists, since known of them wanted to be second, and they often argued about it, and Sango was on bass. No complaints there.
When the band was reunited in the 9th grade when Kagome moved back to Tokyo, Kouga moved into the scene and became the drummer while Miroku played second bass, since he didn't mind taking after Sango. Soon, the guys wanted to have their own band, without Sango and Kagome, and named themselves Youkai. Sango and Kagome didn't mind at all, since they also wanted their own little band, too, so they began looking for a drummer, since either of them could play the drums. Rin was no help, seeing as she couldn't play drums or the guitar, but she didn't mind. She was to busy being with Sesshoumaru all the time.
Once 10th grade started, Kagome and Sango had finally found their drummer. Ayame. And they named themselves Sakura, and it has remained that way ever since.
Even though the original Goshinboku had separated to have their own boy or girl bands, they reunite together to play at the Bone-Eater's club two Saturday's out of each month with Inuyasha and Kagome as the lead guitarists, Miroku playing bass, Kouga on the drums, Sango playing the electric piano singing backup with Kagome, and Ayame being the disc jockey, scratching beats to mix with the music, also singing backup.
"Hey guys, let's say we go over a song to play Saturday night at the club," Miroku mentioned.
"Sure." "Yeah, let's do it." They all said as they set up their instruments to play their first song they wrote together in the 10th grade.
The guitars were strum and drums were kept at a mellow, smooth beat as Inuyasha began his solo:
Sometimes I feel the fear of uncertainty stinging clear
And I cant help but ask myself how much I'll let the fear take the wheel and steer
Kagome then began singing along with him:
It's driven me before, it seems to have a vague
Haunting mass appeal
Lately I'm beginning to find that I should be the one behind the wheel
Then, Miroku as well as Sango and Ayame chimed in smoothly has Kouga continue the soothing, rhythmic beats of the drums:
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
With open arms and open eyes, yeah
Whatever tomorrow brings, I'll be there
I'll be there
While the band was in their frame of mind in the music, Kikyou pulled up to the giant garage and walked over to the entrance.
No one didn't notice Kikyou approach the entrance of the giant garage, so she just leaned against the wall, marveling at the sight of her sexy boyfriend. Kikyou despised Inuyasha's "silly-little band" because, really, she hated their music, but, of course, pretended to enjoy it just because Inuyasha was in it.
As the band came down to the ending, Kikyou clapped excitingly, not for the band, but only for her Inuyasha. Everyone turned their attention towards her at the sound of her slightly-deep voice.
"Oh, Inu-baby, that was great!" Kikyou exclaimed as she ran over to hug Inuyasha, tightly around his neck, "except, it would be better if you sang lead more instead of Higurashi." Kikyou said her last phrase with utter malice in her tone of voice as she darted glares at Kagome.
"She just loves calling me by my last names, doesn't she?" Kagome glared right back at her angrily, "Well, two can play at that game."
"Listen Noshitama, if you're just here to talk crap, then you can just leave!" Kagome spat.
Kagome and Kikyou always seemed to find themselves in a verbal fight with one another no matter who's around or where they are (A mutual-cat fight relationship).
Kikyou stepped up closer to Kagome, right in her face.
"Listen Higurashi, don't talk to me that way or else I'll…"
"You'll what?" Kagome interrupted her.
"Ladies, ladies please. Can will all just get along?" Miroku stepped in between the fuming girls as if they were about to rumble. You still glared at each other angrily, each shooting thunder glares at one another, "Apparently not…" Miroku signed as he pulled Kagome away from Kikyou.
Kikyou always hated Kagome ever since 9th grade for no reason at all. The others probably suspected that it was because she was either jealous by the fact that Inuyasha and Kagome were such good friends, or that she always wanted to pick a fight with whoever girl that came into contact with her Inu-baby. But why they always wondered. I mean really; Kikyou had Inuyasha, so why would she even get jealous if he was already hers? That either of them will never know.
Sesshoumaru and Rin were watching the whole scene from their seat on the couch up to when Miroku pulled them away from each other. After that, the couple headed inside to watch television together, letting the others carry on with the scrap.
Kikyou turned back over to Inuyasha.
"Inu-baby, can I talk to you for a moment?" Kikyou pouted babyishly.
"Yeah, what about?" He asked a little confused.
"Not here." Kikyou said sternly, looking over her shoulder at Kagome. Kagome just glared back at her.
Kikyou pulled Inuyasha by the arm outside of the garage. She then forcefully pushed Inuyasha up against the wall of the garage, much to his surprise.
The others continued on conversing amongst themselves.
------------------
Kikyou held Inuyasha up against the wall of the garage, her small-frame body slightly rubbing up against him.
"What is…" Before Inuyasha could say anything, Kikyou kissed him hard on the lips, hungrily, devouring is sweet lips and tongue in hers.
"I need you…" She said breathlessly.
"What…?"
"Inuyasha, how about you ditch your little friends and come over to my house for a little fun." Kikyou winked, tracing the outlines of Inuyasha's muscular chest through his gray tank top.
"Uh, Kikyou, this isn't the time for that! I told you I have practice with the band today," Inuyasha muttered in a high whisper.
"Well then, come over to my house at 9:00 tonight. My parents will be at this ball somewhere, so basically, I have the house all…to…my…self. So, what do you think about that? Just you…and…me…" Kikyou whispered in Inuyasha's ear, seductively while slowly moving her right hand down his pants, lightly cupping his member in her hand, gently rubbing it. Inuyasha could smell her arousal, which was making him feel uncomfortable. Yeah, Kikyou was his girlfriend and, sure, they have fooled around a little, yet never had sex, and Inuyasha was just fine with that, but Kikyou on the other hand … Inuyasha felt that it wasn't right to lose it to her, and in a way, slightly guilty about something else … It just didn't seem right to him. Plus he was planning on breaking up with her anyways.
Inuyasha turned them both around so that Kikyou's back was up against the wall.
"Listen babe, I've already told you that I can't go that far with you, yet alright?" Inuyasha stated.
"Oh but why baby?" Kikyou pouted babyishly again.
"…Well, because, uh…just not yet okay…" Inuyasha stuttered, looking away from her.
"Oh but that will all change once you come to my house. So are you coming or not?" Kikyou persuaded.
"Well, I…" Inuyasha averted his attention over to Kagome when he heard her giggling about a joke Kouga made to Miroku after being slapped by Sango from groping her (…again . ). He signed under his breath …
"Alright, … I'll be there at nine," Inuyasha said, turning his attention back to Kikyou. She hugged him tightly and kissed him hard on the lips.
"I knew you would," Kikyou said when she released him and started to walk over to her car, "Now Inu-baby, don't be late alright. I'm gonna be at the mall for a while with Kagura and Kanna if you need me baby. Tootles!" She then started up her car and drove off towards the mall.
Inuyasha just waved goodbye. He then turned his gaze back over to the others in the garage as Kagome's band started to practice their own songs.
Inuyasha leaned up against the wall as he listened and watch Kagome play. He loved watching her play. When Kagome noticed Inuyasha watching her from where he was standing, she smiled at him and he returned the smile.
"Kagome…"
--------------------
After an hour's pass, the gang started heading home. When the others left, Inuyasha walked Kagome to her car, placed her guitar case in the backseat, and leaned over the driver's side of her car window to say goodbye.
"Thanks Inuyasha," Kagome said happily, "Well I better go pick up Souta from school."
"Yeah, well I'll see you tomorrow then. Awesome job today," Inuyasha smiled.
"Thanks…um, Inuyasha?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you really …you know…about me and Houjou?" Kagome asked, looking away from Inuyasha.
Inuyasha brought his index finger underneath Kagome's chin to make her look up at him. He smiled.
"Of course I am happy for you my little angel, and don't you dare think otherwise." He said softly to her. Inuyasha kissed her forehead. "I'll call you later, okay?"
"Alright, later." Kagome said. Inuyasha pulled away from Kagome's car and waved goodbye as she pulled out of his driveway.
Inuyasha's smile faded a little, knowing that even though she was with someone else, he was still going to be happy for her.
-------------------
Inuyasha arrived at Kikyou's place later that night, like she told him. He was dressed in a black long-sleeved sweater, black jeans, and all black snickers; his hair cascading down his back.
When he walked up the steps and knocked on the door, he noticed that the door was unlocked. When he entered the big house, he closed the door and locked it behind him and called for Kikyou.
"YO KIKYOU! WHERE ARE YOU!"
"UP HERE INU-BABY!" Kikyou yelled back, which sounded like it was coming from her bedroom.
Inuyasha slightly gulped as he climbed the stairs leading towards her room, bracing himself for whatever was awaiting him.
When he opened her bedroom door, he gasped at the sight…
Kikyou was wearing a red silk robe that went mid-thigh. And underneath the open robe, she wore matching black and red lingerie with black knee-high stockings and red high heels.
"Mmmm… I've been awaiting for you, my Love. Do you like?" Kikyou seductively and slowly walked towards Inuyasha. Inuyasha slowly backed up against her door, shutting it closed.
"…um…well, you lo-look…" Inuyasha didn't know what to say. He was speechless slightly trembling and scared …
"I thought you might say that," Kikyou then pressed herself up against Inuyasha's body and began kissing him passionately on the lips, while trailing her hand down south, gently massaging his member. He gasped in her lips as she gripped him harder. Moaning against his lips, she started to unzip his pants when Inuyasha then pulled away from her.
"Kikyou, I told you. I don't want to do this with you yet alright." He said sternly.
"Oh sure you don't."
"NO, I DON'T. YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT I WANT OR DON'T WANT TO DO."
"Listen Buddy, if you are just going to yell at me, than you can just leave!" Kikyou shouted back at him, her hands on her hips.
"Fine, I will." With that said, Inuyasha walked out of her room, down the stairs, and to his car. Soon enough, he was gone.
Kikyou was now blowing steam. Why did he leave? I mean sure she said she wanted him to leave, but she didn't mean it. She walked back over to her bed and sat down, crossing her arms.
"Damn him! Well, he won't slip away from me that easily."
---------------------
Inuyasha signed heavily driving down the street towards his house. He was glad to get away from Kikyou at that moment, because deep down … he knew he would regret it. He felt really relieved that she had told him to leave, even though she probably didn't mean it.
"Oh well, she'll probably come back around and call me later, I bet." Inuyasha thought to himself, sighing heavily just thinking about all the talking she's going to be doing over the phone.
"Kagome…"
----------------------
It was around 10:45pm and Kagome was having a hard time falling asleep, as usual.
"Damn it…" She cursed to herself, trying to find a comfortable spot on her pillow. Suddenly, her cell phone vibrated. She sat up in her be grabbed her phone off her nightstand. Flipping her phone open, she answered, knowing who it was.
"Hey Yasha. What's up?"
"Hey Kitten. Sorry I called you so late. Kikyou was running her mouth to long."
"I bet I can guess why this time. She tried to bed you and you rejected her, again."
"You guessed right. I keep on telling her I'm not ready for that yet, but…"
"But I guess she can't get that through her thick head." Kagome laughed silently over the phone. Inuyasha chuckled lightly.
"Yeah, very funny. So…did you call Houjou?" He asked reluctantly.
"Yeah, but he was kind of busy at the moment. Probably talking with a client." Kagome replied.
"Oh…well, I'll let you go and get some sleep. I'll see you tomorrow Kitten."
"Alright, tomorrow then. Night."
"Night."
Kagome hung up her phone and place it back on her charger.
Kagome frowned at her reflect in the mirror. Unconsciously, she rolled up her sleeve and stared at the slanted scar across her right arm. She grimaced at the thought of it. That ever same scar that brought her pain, misery, sadness. No one knew about it … not even Inuyasha. That scar … was her life … A life she never wanted to go back to …
A tear slowly made its way down her soft cheek, which was no surprise to her. Every time she glanced down at the scar, a tear would appear. She never really knew why. Kagome slowly wiped away the tear and laid back on her bed.
Laying her head on the pillow, she glanced up at the roof of her room, slowly falling asleep.
Next Chapter
She was kissing him deeply and long. At that very moment, Inuyasha's heart shattered. Even though he always saw them tonguing it up, but this time was different. He stared at them for over a minute, slowly become sadder and sadder by each second.
