Separation Pain
"Kagome… please… please tell me what happened between you and Kouga and Inuyasha." Sango pleaded to her best friend. "Alright alright I'll tell you just shush." Kagome said back with a little irritancy in her voice. "Ok, so you know the day where Kouga came up to me and I walked off with him and asked you to show Inuyasha around?" Sango nodded. "Ok, so we went into an empty room and started making out. Then for some reason he started feeling me up and I asked him what he was doing and he said, "enjoying what I have." I was scared beyond belief, because I didn't know what he was going to do and I made it very clear to him that I wanted the relationship where we would get to know each other first and then proceed further if we are still together." Sango nodded and told her to continue. "Then when I tried to leave he hit me and kicked me and started beating me up. I don't know why and it was really scary and I don't know what changed him." Kagome stated and started crying heavily onto Sango's shoulder. "I noticed that he has been hanging around Kikyo a lot." Sango said a little scared of how she might react. "He…he has?" Kagome asked. Sango nodded and said, "I think Kouga is cheating on you, and I also think that you should break-up with him, it would be the best thing." "I…don't think I can… I'm scared that he might hit me again." Kagome said with a frightened tone. "I'll be there with you if you need me." Sango said with a smile on her face. Sango hugged Kagome and said, "Come on, let's get you cleaned up."
Inuyasha was walking through the halls thinking about what he had just done with Kagome. "Why did I get rid of her? She was so nice to me and I just pushed her away. Why? Why?" He thought. "Tears? Who was crying?" Just then, Inuyasha saw Sango walking Kagome to the girl's room and noticed that Kagome was crying. "Oh man, what have I done? I…want to be friends with her again, but I don't know if I can trust her yet." He thought to himself. He silently walked the other way and didn't talk to Kagome for the rest of the day.
Sango was in the girl's room with Kagome with a wet paper towel wiping up her face from all the crying she had been doing. "Alright Kagome, tell me what happened with you and Inuyasha." Sango said. "Oh… umm… I heard a faint cry as I was going to class and I went to go and see what it was, and it was Inuyasha getting beat up by some bullies. I yelled at them to stop and when they got bored they left. I ran over to Inuyasha to see if he was alright and he just snapped at me. I don't know why and he said that he has never needed friends or anyone to help him out and he wasn't about to start now. I don't know what I did wrong Sango. Did I do something wrong?" Kagome said with pleading eyes. "No sweetie, you didn't do anything wrong. Inuyasha is probably just a little scared because he's new and he's not used to people befriending him so soon, that's all." Sango said and hugged her best friend. "Give him some time, I'm sure he'll come around." Sango said reassuring her friend. "Well… what should I do with Kouga? I'm sure he'll want to know why I am breaking up with him, what should I tell him?" Kagome asked. "Tell him that you don't think it's working out and I wish you all the happiness in finding a girl who loves you." Sango stated simply. "Perfect." Kagome said with a smile. "Now, on to find Kouga. Ready?" Kagome asked. "Ready when you are." Sango nodded.
Kagome walked down the hall looking for Kouga when she saw him leaning against his locker talking with Kouga and it looked like Kikyo was flirting with him. "Thank goodness I am getting this over with I don't know why I liked him in the first place." Kagome thought to herself. "Um… Kouga? Do you think that I could talk to you for a minute?" Kagome asked kind of hoping he wouldn't hit her when she told him. "Sure babe, be right back Kikyo." Kouga said and winked at her and Kagome caught that. "Ok, you can do this Kagome, just tell him that you don't think that this relationship is working out." Kagome thought to herself. "Kouga? I don't think this is working out. I mean you are a really sweet guy "Except the beatings" Kagome thought; and I hope you find a girl who loves you very much." Kagome said closing her eyes expecting a smack to come with it, but it never came. Kouga stood there with a look of pain on his face and finally said, "If that's how you feel then I can't change your mind." Kouga walked out of the room and down the hall to his locker. "Wow, that went a lot smoother than I thought it would." Kagome said aloud. She felt better already and walked out of the classroom to meet up with Sango.
"How did it go?" Sango asked. "It went surprisingly well actually." Kagome answered. "Alright, now on to our next priority… Inuyasha." Sango said. Kagome looked down with an expression of pain and heartache. "Or… we could um… give it some time, its up to you." Sango said just realizing the mistake she made by saying that. "No… no it's ok, I'll just give him some time to think that's all and if he doesn't want friends, then so be it. But he will be missing out." Kagome said.
Inuyasha was in his class thinking about what he should do about Kagome, when Miroku noticed he was looking a little sad and came up to him. "Hey man what's up? You're Inuyasha right?" Miroku said. Inuyasha just nodded. "Hey, I noticed you weren't hanging around with Kagome that much, is anything wrong?" "No nothing's wrong, just a little confused that's all." Inuyasha answered. "Is it anything I can help you with?" Miroku asked. "No, it's something I need to figure out on my own." Inuyasha stated. "I really need to figure out what's going on… and fast." Inuyasha thought.
