The Ex has come to town
The sunny day went dark and gloomy by noon which made Kagome frown. It was supposed to be a bright Saturday, but, unfortunately the weatherman was wrong for the third time that week.
Kagome was supposed to go to the mall with a few of her friends, but they all had bailed on her when the slightest drizzle started to show through.
Now Sango was out with one of her friends from out of town (what a good friend she was), and Miroku and Inuyasha were making trouble at god knows where and they would be back at god knows when. Kagome guessed it would be a very late hour.
Kagome was home alone for once in a house shared by four people. She was somewhat happy so that she could snoop around everyone's rooms.
Even though no one was in the house, Kagome still creeped around like a cat, avoiding any creaky floorboards. It had only been a week and a half and Kagome already knew where not to make steps. She didn't want to cause a disturbance.
The first room she snuck into was Sango and Miroku's. It looked like their personalities, so Kagome though. For Sango, there was only makeup covering the dressers. Everything else was put away neatly.
Miroku, however, was a total pig. His clothes were littering the floors, which seemed to be piled into halfway neat stacks. Kagome guessed that Sango had tried her best to make it a little bit cleaner.
The search was on. Kagome had first rummaged around Miroku's bags. Some more clothes, a rosary, and a few unmentionable things. Kagome sighed and thought, "Typical guy."
Kagome didn't bother to look through Sango's things. She didn't need to lose a good friend whom couldn't ever be replaced.
Kagome tiptoed across the small hall to Inuyasha's room. The door wasn't closed, but she still had to push it open a little bit to get through. The door creaked. Kagome cringed.
The worn door was opened. Kagome slipped through and took a look around. It was a somewhat neat room, but a little messy.
Kagome searched around in the closet. All she really found were clothes. There were some racing magazines, but that was it.
Kagome looked under the bed. What she found was interesting to keep her busy for about 45 minutes. They were old photos.
Kagome looked over them and each one told her an interesting story. She flipped through them slowly. They were settled in a box, but there weren't many. Maybe forty pictures were there total.
Kagome's stomach fluttered with excitement and intrigue when she flipped to a picture of Inuyasha and another boy. The older one seemed to be older than Inuyasha by a few years. He was certainly taller.
Inuyasha had a frown on his face in the photo. His black hair was glimmering in the camera shy sun. The taller one had long silvery hair. It was odd and Kagome guessed it was dyed.
The next picture was of a baby Inuyasha and his mother. Kagome let out a few "awwww"s then flipped to the next picture.
One after another picture, each was very interesting. Kagome looked up at the clock. It had been an hour. Kagome decided that had been enough of that and stacked the pictures back into the box.
As she was about to push the box back under the bed, she saw a scrap of paper hiding beneath a photo in the corner of the box. She must have missed it in all of the excitement. She carefully pulled it from beneath the other photos, thinking that it might be an overturned photo.
As soon as she tugged on it she realized that it wasn't a photo at all, but a folded scrap of paper. She tried her hardest not to tear it. She succeeded.
Kagome carefully unfolded the piece of paper. It was folded twice and when it was layed out flat, it was the size of a piece of computer paper.
Kagome gasped out loud. She covered her mouth instinctively. It was a drawing of a boy with odd ears. He was wearing an odd kimono colored in red with colored pencils. Kagome marveled at it.
It looked just like Inuyasha except for the yellow eyes, the claws, and the silvery hair. Kagome couldn't take her eyes off of it. It was well drawn and looked so much like Inuyasha.
Kagome slipped the piece of paper back when she went to investigate the dresser. The dresser top was pretty barren. A few phone numbers. A comic book. CDs. Pictures in nicely decorated frames.
Kagome thought that Inuyasha certainly had good taste if he picked out the house that they were living in and the gorgeous picture frames. She paid no attention to the pictures that the frames were snaked around.
One caught her eye though. It was Inuyasha. He was smiling warmly and he had his hand on a girls shoulder. She was very pretty, Kagome thought. She wondered why she hadn't seen the girl around yet.
She shrugged and looked around some more. He not only had great taste in houses, clothes, and furnishings, but he had a great taste in music. Kagome wondered if he would mind if she borrowed some.
The door slammed shut. Someone was home. Kagome quickly high tailed it out of Inuyasha's room and into her own. She pretended like she was sleeping. Then she heard Sango's voice. "How relieving." Kagome thought.
Sango crept up the steps and wandered into Kagome's room. Kagome looked over, forgetting that she was supposed to be asleep. Sango smirked.
"You were in Inuyasha's room." "No I wasn't." "Yes you were don't lie." "I'm not." He is going to be so mad when he comes home." "Please don't tell him I don't want him to find out!" "I don't have to he can figure it out by himself easily."
Kagome gave her a scared look. She was a little freaked out by what Sango had said, but she pretended not to care. Sango just gave her a laughing look and left. Sango has a way of making you want to laugh with that face.
Kagome turned the light on. She sighed, facing the facts that she couldn't fall asleep when she was stressing out over if he would know or not. It didn't matter. Then why was she so worried?
She turned over on her side and watched out the window for the car lights of Inuyasha and Miroku.
She sighed and kept her eye locked on the window for some time. But as seconds turned to minutes, and minutes turned to hours, Kagome felt her body become lighter. It was like all the weight of her body had been transferred to her eyelids. She struggled to keep her eyes open.
In the end, she lost her battle. She fell into a light slumber, curled up in her blankets, without a care in the world.
Two hours after she fell asleep, the hall clock chimed two o'clock in the morning, and Inuyasha's car pulled into the cracked driveway. Kagome didn't even here the key in the keyhole click, and the door creak open.
She slept soundly while Inuyasha entered the house and went up to his own room. But there was another pair of footsteps, so much lighter than Miroku's. That's what woke up Kagome. Some light footsteps that matched her own so much.
Kagome shot up and listened in closer. She heard another set of footsteps going towards her room. In a panic, she picked up a Stephen King novel and stuffed her nose into it like she was reading.
The footsteps retreated into Inuyasha's room. Kagome sighed, relieved. But it didn't end there.
Inuyasha HAD picked up her scent. And it was everywhere in his room. All over his cds, magazines, clothes, and even on his sunglasses!
In an angry rage, he yelled "KAGOME!!!!" Kagome glued herself to the backboard of the bed and acted like she was reading, but without flipping pages, without making a peep, a stutter, nothing. She thought she had even stopped breathing for a moment.
Inuyasha seemed to have her scent down. He flung the door open. Kagome jumped in fear. "YOU!" He looked like he was about to burst with anger.
Kagome just got on her annoyed look, covering up the fear that had just taken her hostage. "What do you want, Inuyasha?"
"YOU KNOW VERY WELL WHY IM HERE YOU BITCH!" "Why are you bugging me?! What did I do?!" "YOU WERE IN MY ROOM!" "Yea, so I wanted to borrow a cd, so what? "YOUR SCENT ISALL OVER ALL OF MY STUFF! YOU THINK I KEEP MY CDS IN MY CLOTHES AND IN MY PHOTOS AND UNDER MY BED?!" "I was only in your cd case." "Don't you fucking lie Kagome!"
Kagome was taken back. He had really never said her name, and if he had, then it wasn't in such a command. Kagome decided to keep her mouth shut.
"LISTEN UP KAGOME STAY OUT OF MY ROOM! YOU DON'T HAFTA LIE BUT IF YOU DO, GIVE ME A CONVINCING EXCUSE."
Kagome gave him an angry look and turned her head. "Why I don't know what you mean, Inuyasha, I'm telling you the truth.
"I hope I didn't cause this whole mess." A voice said from behind Inuyasha. He turned and SHE walked in. It was the girl in the photo. It was Kikyo.
For some reason Kagome became jealous, but she didn't show it. "Hi, I'm Kagome, what's yours?" "I am Kikyo," the girl said. She had a kind smile, but it was hardly one at all, like her smile had been worn away by years of great pain, suffering, and sadness.
Inuyasha put his arm around her. "She's staying here with me for the night so don't bother trying to look through my room. "Oh so you don't want me to get in between the time with you and your Girrrrlllfrriieeennndd" Kagome smirked.
"She isn't my girlfriend", Inuyasha snapped back, "she is my ex girlfriend, and she needs me right now so just stay away from me, her, US." Stormed out, his arm still over Kikyou's shoulder. She gave Kagome the sad "I'm sorry" look. Kagome just looked stunned.
When they left, Kagome was still stunned. And she said:
"So that's the ex girlfriend."
