Hey guys. I intended to update last week, but I was busy, and I also am not feeling very well, well enough to write anyway, and theres this little thing called writers block that played a role in this too. But, enjoy your new chapter.
Oh How Things Can Change........
Itwas quiet and the quiet buzz of chatting quieted as an even louder noise resonated throughout the room. Heads turned, and scowls formed at the nuisance of a sound.
Myoga frowned as he slowly made his way down the rows, trailing his claws on each student's desk, with a ruler in the opposite hand.
Once he approached the source of the obnoxious noise, he raised an hand that held a yard stick. The other students watched, captivated by the site, watching, and waiting, to see what Myoga would do.
The ruler was slammed down on one of the small desk's and with it's force, a head full of silver hair popped up.
"What? Who? Fire?!" Inuyasha said confusedly, flailing his arms about.
The class erupted into giggles, as Inuyasha's cheeks became a pink color and he frowned. "Geez, Myoga, you didn't have to hit the desk."
"Well, I wouldn't have to, if you hadn't been snoring!" Myoga yelled.
Inuyasha snorted, and stretched his arms out, yawned, and leaned back in his chair. "Whatever."
Myoga started to reprimand Inuyasha once more, but then bell rang, and everyone bolted out of the classroom. Inuyasha stood up, shouldered his backpack, and swaggered out of the classroom.
Inuyasha sauntered down the hallways, goofy smile on his face, he figured he do some more 'convincing' on Kagome today, he gracefully stepped out of people's way, and made his way to Kagome's locker.
She had a rather bored expression planted on her face as she threw a biology book into her locker, and snatched out a literature book. Inuyasha quietly approached her, and wrapped one arm around her small waist.
"Ah!" Kagome shrieked, from the sudden weight around her waist. Inuyasha chuckled and released her.
"You're way too easily startled."
Kagome rolled her eyes as they proceeded to walk down the hallway. "Whatever, you shouldn't sneak up on me like that."
"Yeah,yeah, whatever, hey wanna hang out tonight?" Inuyasha said, narrowly dodging an AV cart.
"Now why on earth would I want to hang out with you?"
"Because you love me."
"Only in your dreams."
"Trust me, theres a lot more than love going on in my dreams."
Kagome lightly slapped him on his arm as he chuckled and started walking backwards in front of her, somehow still managing to dodge all the other students.
They were starting to approach her next class. "You should get going, Inuyasha."
"So, is that a yes to tonight?" Inuyasha asked, widening his golden eyes, smiling widely at her.
Kagome sighed and nodded. "Okay, fine, bring movies to my place tonight at 6:30."
Inuyasha planted a kiss against her temple, causing Kagome to flush red. "See ya then."
Kagome started to walk up the shrine steps, after parking her convertible. A thoughtful frown crossed her features as she realized there was another car there as well, a navy blue Porsche that wasn't normally there.
With her bag slung over her shoulder, she started to lightly jog up the steps, and into the Higurashi home.
"Mama! I'm home!" She shouted, kicking off her sneakers, and walking into the living room.
Ms. Higurashi was on the couch next to Grandpa with Kouga sitting across from her. Kagome's eyebrows furrowed in confusion as she tried to figure out why Kouga was here.
"Hello dear, school was fine, I'm assuming?"
Kagome sat down on the couch next to her mother and nodded. "Um, yeah, sure, um, Kouga, why are you here?"
Kouga smiled. "Just here to hang out, you know, you haven't talked to me in a while."
"Kouga has been waiting for you for about an hour, he's a nice young man, you should chat." Ms. Higurashi interjected as her and Grandpa stood up, to walk out of the room.
Kagome shook her head, then directed her attention to Kouga with a pleasant smile. "Well, I got an hour or two, we can chill upstairs, if you want." She said, already walking upstairs.
"So, I still think rock is better than j-pop."
"No way! J-pop is where its at, you loser!"
"No! Its all about the power of rock, the excitement!"
"No, the happiness and hype of j-pop!"
"You have no taste in music whatsoever!" Kouga exclaimed, as he set Kagome's J-pop CD down on her desk.
They had been in her room for an hour or two, and had gotten into a debate about which genre of music was better, J-pop or Rock, Kagome was all for J-pop, while Kouga was the opposite.
Stretched out on her comforter, Kagome smirked. "Sure, sure, Kouga."
Kouga sat on the edge of her bed and rolled his eyes. "Believe what you want, woman."
Kagome's smirk stayed plastered on her face, as she looked at her watch and saw that it was 6:15 and Inuyasha would be arriving in 15 minutes. She sat up on the bed, and Kouga scooted somewhat closer on the small bed.
"Well, I have something to do in the next 15 minutes, so this is gonna have to be bye for now." She said, smiling at Kouga.
Kouga mirrored the same smile, and nodded. "Like what?"
A tinge of pink attacked Kagome's cheeks. "Um, uh, someone's coming over."
Kouga nodded. "Ah, I see. And, who might that be?"
"You don't really need to know that," Kagome said, with a nervous giggle. Kouga moved closer and slipped an arm around her shoulders. Kagome could feel her neck start to warm up under the influence of his touch. "Um, d-do you need something?" She asked, finding herself caught in the pool of blue that were his eyes.
"Yeah. You." With that statement, he sealed his lips to hers, in a light kiss.
Inuyasha and Miroku were both hanging out in Miroku's den and watching music videos. "So, how's it going with Kagome?"
Inuyasha smirked. "Pretty good, I got her wrapped around my claws."
"Sounds painful."
"Shut up."
Miroku stretched back on his long couch and sighed. "Well, does she still want to go out with you?"
"She doesn't have much of a choice, really."
"True, but is she enjoying it?"
"Well, I for one, think so."
Inuyasha stood up and stretched a bit. "Well, I needs to be leaving, my stupid friend."
Miroku waved. "See you soon, jackass."
Inuyasha chuckled as he jogged out of Miroku's expensive condo,and hopped into the Ferrari.
Stopping at the local video store, Square-Breakers, Inuyasha hopped out of the car, and quickly ran inside.
He was immediately assaulted with the smell of popcorn, candy, and old guys. He grabbed a few romantic comedies and one horror movie for good measure and went to go rent them.
The blond at the counter smiled at him, as she started to scan his videos.
"Lets, see, you have five romantic comedies, and one horror movie, either you're hanging out with your lady or you're gonna cry about loosing one."
Inuyasha chuckled. "Shut up, Kimiko, and I won't mention those obvious black roots under all that blond hair."
Frowning, Kimiko shoved a bag of DVD's at him. "Yeah, yeah, whatever, and silver is your natural hair color too."
"It is!"
"Get out!"
Inuyasha laughed again, as he walked out of the store. Him and Kimiko had known each other for years, because Inuyasha didn't go to any other video store.
Once outside, there was an old homeless man selling bouquets of flowers. Inuyasha smiled and approached the man.
"Give ya twenty bucks for a bouquet of roses."
The old man looked like he had been immensely blessed and snatched the money out of Inuyasha's hand before handing him the bouquet.
Inuyasha shrugged, pleased with himself, before he climbed back into his car.
Kagome's eyes widened to the size of saucers. What the hell!? Why was Kouga suddenly trying to make out with her? She hadn't kissed back, but that didn't mean he stopped any, there was one kiss after another.
"Kouga, you should probably-" Kagome started, only to be cut off with another kiss. "Go!" She said, once her mouth was free again.
Kouga smirked, "In a minute." He said, slamming his mouth down on hers again. Hands firmly planted on her waist, he brought her closer to him.
Inuyasha closed the door on his car, as he walked up the steps to the main house. With the roses in one hand, and videos in the other, he had a goofy smile plastered on his face.
Once he approached the house, he went around and started to jump in the tree next to Kagome's window. From the tree, he jumped to the window sill, but once he actually peered in, the roses, and videos in his hands went slack, and fell down to the ground with a loud clattering sound.
Kagome finally found the strength to push Kouga away. She raised her arms, and she heard the sound of something being dropped, and apparently Kouga did too, because he stopped and started to stare at the window.
"What? Why are you staring at the window?! And why would you do that, when you know I'm going out with Inuyasha?!" She shrieked, as she started to turn towards the window.
Once she did, her heart stopped, and the blood rushing through her veins ran cold.
Two, hurt and angry golden eyes stared back at her. Had he seen what just transpired between her and Kouga?
She immediately ran to the window, and forced it open. "Inuyasha! It's not-
A bitter smile graced the boy's handsome features, and low rays of sunlight from the sunset reflected he pain in his eyes. "It is. Guess you weren't joking about it 'not being real'."
"But, Inuyasha-
He held up one clawed hand to silence her. "Don't worry, I won't bother you with this 'fake' commitment anymore, in fact I'll save you the trouble of even having to speak to me. I hope you and him, can have something real." He said, spitting the word as if it left a rancid taste in his mouth.
Before she could speak another word, he back flipped into the tree beside her window, and preceded to start jumping to other nearby ones.
Kagome turned around to sprint out the room, hoping to catch up with him, when Kouga lightly grabbed her arm. "Kagome, what about-
"Kouga, you should go." She said, in a voice so cold it could freeze hell over.
Shrugging out of his grasp she bolted down the steps, and then the shrine steps, until she was on the ground below her bedroom window.
What have I done? She asked herself, as she bent down and picked up every fallen rose.
End of this chapter. Hope you guys enjoyed this, there were parts I liked, and parts I didn't, but please review, I'm hoping to reach almost sixty reviews by the end of chapter 9. But, as for the next chapter, chapter 8, that is entitled: 'Role Reversal'.
