Disclaimer- I don't own Inuyasha and co. (BUT I WILL ONE DAY!!!...JK)
This is my fourth chapter and I hope you guys enjoy it!! As requested Inuyasha and Kagome Fluff! I just want to thank all my reviewers. It's because of you guys I keep on writing! Any who, this may be confusing, but I'm going to interchange scenes even when they aren't together. Like if Kagome is at work, I can change gears and tell you what Inuyasha is doing… Jeez I hope you guys get it… I kinda don't! HEHE
Kagome sat on the couch Friday night at 9:50 pm with Sango and Kagura at either side.
"I just wish I could just happen to meet my true love. I wish it were John Cusack… Well actually just his character really." Sango stated sadly.
They were watching Serendipity (It's a good chick flick!) and pigging out on Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia.
"I wish I had a man trailing after me after we ate ice cream and I just met him and left him with a dollar in a book." Kagome said with awe.
The love story between the main characters made you cry. All the chance meetings and close encounters. They all wished it was their own life that was like the movie. Too bad reality liked to kick you out of dreamland right on to Reality drive.
"I wish this movie wasn't so fake. Things like this don't happen in real life. No guy is EVER that interested in a girl enough to basically kill himself over it." Kagura stated with a scoop of ice cream melting in her mouth.
"Shuddup. I'd like to believe in it. Besides, there is an ice cream place in New York City and we just happen to live in New York City. So ha." Sango said.
Kagome looked at her friends before reaching for another spoonful of ice cream and listening to the movie.
When it ended, they decided to head out to grab a bite to eat as if the ice cream weren't bad enough.
Inuyasha took the elevator down to the first floor where Kikyo was waiting for him.
He came outside to see her applying lip gloss and smuckering her lips.
"Yashi! You took forever and a half but I forgive you," Kikyo closed the distance between them and pressed her lips against his. Inuyasha winced at how forceful she was being and what the kiss was telling him. It was telling him she wanted more than a kiss and to take it further.
Soon Kikyo was pushing him against the wall. Inuyasha stopped when he heard slut and ew.
Pushing Kikyo off he slowly leaned his head against hers. "Stop Kikyo." Their kisses used to be so sweet and tender. Now they were lustful and unloving. Wouldn't any guy want a kiss like that? Kikyo was quite the catch, but Inuyasha seemed to feel put out by her.
He held her hand gently in his and lead her down the street.
Down the street was the café of course but on the other side of the bookstore down a block was a cute little restaurant called Masa.
After a few minutes of choosing and fighting over what to get, Kagura ordered their stuff
"We'll have the Beef Nagimaki, the California Roll, miso soup, and plum wine for all of us," Kagura looked at the waiter to see if he got the order. She smiled politely and handed him all the menus.
Half way through dinner (and talking about Inuyasha and the night he came over to Kagome's), Sango noticed something across the restaurant.
"Hey, isn't that the girl who was making out with that guy outside Kagome's apartment building?"
"Yeah, the one that looks a little like Kagome except her eyes are way slanty and dead looking." Kagura said while looking at the girl.
"There she goes again with that guy!"
"She's going to make my food come back up." Kagura put a napkin to her mouth and turned away.
Something in Kagome's stomach lurched as she turned to see who it was.
"Kikyo…that's… she's…eww…Inuyasha!" Kagome was sputtering and gasping at what she saw.
Kikyo wore a tiny white dress with tall black boots and was currently giving Inuyasha mouth to mouth. Kikyo stopped her attack to look at him with lustful eyes and trail kisses along his cheek.
"Ugh. What a little hoe bag, it's near freezing and she's wearing that skimpy little thing."
"She looked like she was ready to get some too." Kagura snorted.
Kagome sat in shock while looking at where Kikyo and Inuyasha were sitting. They soon got up and left.
Inuyasha lead Kikyo to his apartment where he promptly told her goodnight and that he had a lot of work to do tomorrow.
"Fine Inuyasha. I'll just see you later then." Kikyo looked okay with the idea of leaving. As if it didn't bother her. Shouldn't she want to spend more time with me? Whatever, I'm sick of trying to figure women out.
Inuyasha shook his head as he climbed into bed. He pulled the black and white comforter over his bear chest and began to fall asleep.
"I, wow, ummm, yea. That was Inuyasha…Inuyasha!" Kagome was shouting and blabbering to them on the way back to her place.
"No kidding huh. Of course Kagome had to like a guy with a girlfriend. Good Luck!" Sango said. Soon Kagura and Sango gave her a hug and left to their respected apartments.
"This kind of sucks. I guess I was the one who didn't want any man." Kagome snorted. Who was she trying to kid anyway? She lay awake in bed for several minutes before sleep claimed her droopy lids.
When Kagome woke up the next morning, she felt like a brand new person. She vowed to herself not to get caught in any charade with ANY of the guy population including Inuyasha. She would be friends and that was is for her.
It was a perfectly good Saturday to go last minute Christmas shopping before heading upstate to visit her family. Kagome decided on going out to finish getting minor stuff like wrapping paper, cards, and little knick knacks before things really got out of hand in New York for Christmas.
She showered and dried her hair before putting on a knit hat, scarf, gloves, and her favorite leather jacket. It was brown and pleated right above her waist line and was light brown. Kagome slid on a pair of faded jeans and boots and applied some lip gloss before heading out for a day on the town.
As per usual, Inuyasha was strolling down the hall just in time to greet Kagome. She smiled at him and chanted her vow like a mantra.
Maybe I should slow down so that the elevator closes and I have to take it after him. Kagome thought she was clever, but it backfired on her when he patiently waited for her to come.
"A tad bit slow today are we?" Inuyasha teased.
Kagome shot him a playful glare before answering him coolly, "Just taking in the scenery. Ya know, there is this one old guy who I have the hots for."
Inuyasha laughed and Kagome silently stared at the elevator doors remembering him and Kikyo the other day.
That sensational ding took over and they both got out. No good bye, just heading off in different directions. It was as if they didn't need to say good bye because they would be seeing each other again anyways.
The cold winter air smacked Kagome in the face hard as well as vicious snowflakes. She walked along anyways getting entranced by every store she passed by. It was a quarter after noon when Kagome found herself wondering into yet another clothes store.
It was five thirty when Kagome got home with plenty of bags that were presents for herself. Candles, perfume, clothes, and jewelry were strewn strategically throughout her room covering a whole corner.
Kagome sat satisfied on the couch and began to think of something to eat. I know! I should invite Inuyasha for dinner again. Kagome was feeling good and decided it could be fun to hang out since Kagura had left for a last minute business trip and Sango was going to attend a business Christmas party. Kagome never understood why they had those things so early.
Bounding down the hallway she stopped in front of his door and knocked. A muffled voice could be heard on the other side and then the door opened to reveal a shirtless Inuyasha.
"Hey Kagome." Inuyasha said.
Kagome stole a quick glance at his abs before averting her eyes to his face. Maybe it was a bad idea. TOO LATE!
"I was just wondering if you wanted to hang out and have dinner with me… But I dunno, you might have plans," Kagome felt SUPER stupid and pathetic at the moment. Not to mention she wanted to stare at his abs like no other.
"Sure. What time you want me?" Inuyasha asked. He mentally snorted. Miroku would have gotten a kick outta that question.
Kagome tapped her cheek before telling him to come over at seven.
Dinner went smoothly and now Kagome and Inuyasha were sitting on the couch watching movies and eating.
"Dish ish the besht part," Inuyasha said through munching on popcorn.
Kagome hid under a throw blanket and prayed that the movie would be over. (They're watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The original!) After the bad part was over with, Kagome ate the remainders of her ice cream.
"I cant believe a guy like that truly exists out there. I'm NEVER going to Texas." Kagome watched through fingers at a large man hefting a chainsaw in the air and swinging it around.
"I can't believe you're scared," Inuyasha said. He was looking at the screen not knowing Kagome was glaring at him. He grinned like a little boy when Kagome shrieked and hid.
After the movie was over, Kagome walked Inuyasha to the door.
"I hope you don't get hacked up to night. You never know what physcos are hiding around in your apartment, or even on the streets." Inuyasha teased.
Kagome looked like she was thinking hard for a second before saying, "Hmmmm… Like you!" She said.
"Touché,"
"Good night wet puppy,"
"Harhar! Night Kags. Here's my number too so you don't have to walk to my door all the time," Inuyasha said as he strolled down the hallway with his hands clasped behind his head. That was just a little strange. I guess it's good that we're just friends. Or so he thought at the moment.
Kagome closed the door and walked to the living room. That was nice. I should hang out with him more often. As a friend of course.
It seemed as if they were reverting or something along those lines. Now, Kagome just wanted another best friend. No confusions with relationships and once again, so she thought.
Kagome sat on the train for an excruciating two hours to get to her family. She took off of work on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday in order to catch her mom and grandpa before they left for California to visit family over Christmas. Souta and Kagome would kick back at her place for Christmas. It would be the usual suspects. Sango, Kagura, Kohaku, Kilala (Sango's cat), and another guest for each person was invited.
It would be great. All of them catching up and giving presents, and making fun of one another. They would be considered their own little family in a way.
Kagome got out of the taxi with her suitcase behind her and stood infront of the door. She rung the doorbell. One, Two, Three…
"Kagome honey!!" Hitomi Higurashi hugged Kagome until she couldn't breathe.
"Honey, we have so much to catch up on. Look at my baby all grown up. Your father would have been so proud of you." Hitomi kissed Kagome on the forehead and left her to put her stuff in her old room. Souta was already on his winter break and was currently hooking up his game systems and talking away to someone on the other side of his phone.
Kagome opened her door to reveal her lilac walls and pink sheeted bed. Its good to be home.
I KNOW that wasn't a good ending, but I just want to leave it there for now. I promise, things will be interesting on Christmas and the following days!! ITS GOING TO MAKE YOU SMILLEEE!! But I aint giving the rest up just yet. Ttyl. mandyy
