The Plan
Hojo seems to have completely ruined the engagement. Is there no hope for Inuyasha and Kagome? Will Izumi have the last laugh?
…
Inuyasha sat, curled up on his bed, trying his best not to cry. Today was horrible. Possibly even the worst day of his life. He spent most of it with Izumi and the plan, the plan he and Kagome had spent months planning, was ruined. Completely ruined. How will he ever kiss that horrible succubus on their wedding day? Their wedding day. Inuyasha shuddered.
As he watched Kagome run home, he felt the tears nearly burst from his eyes. She pretty much ditched their dinner to go be with Hobo. Hobo!
"No one asked her to go along with this stupid plan," Inuyasha seethed, "In fact, this plan was sorta even her idea! And she goes and ruins it...to be with Hobo."
Inuyasha fell onto his bed. Frustration, depression, rage, confusion...all of these emotions were churning up inside of him.
"If she wanted out of the engagement, she should have just said so," Inuyasha grumbled, "She didn't have to break my...my h-...our engagement off in such a horrible way."
Inuyasha in his rage, slapped a picture off his bedside table just as the door swung open. He turned to glare at the person standing in the doorway. "What do you want?"
…
Kagome sobbed into her mother's arms, still wearing the green dress. "He ruined everything Mama! Everything!"
"There, there, honey," Mrs. Higurashi tried to soothe her daughter.
"Why do I have such thoughtless friends?" Kagome cried, "Who ruin my life!"
Mrs. Higurashi let out a sigh.
"Inuyasha probably hates me now!" Kagome snapped, "He thinks I ditched him to go be with Hojo. Why did this have to happen? Now, he's gonna be stuck with that bitch for the rest of his life. I failed him, Mama, I failed him!"
Mrs. Higurashi pulled Kagome out of her embrace so she could see her daughter's expression. "Now, whatever do you mean by that?" Mrs. Higurashi didn't hide the bewilderment in her voice.
"I...I failed him as...as a fiancée," Kagome managed quickly before returning back to her depressed tone from before, "This dinner was so important! Why did they have to ruin it! Why can't they let me make my own decisions! It's my life, I can live it with whoever want. Inuyasha...now he can't." Kagome's voice went soft, "He's probably so angry at me. He could barely look me in the eye. I've...they've ruined his one chance at happiness. I hate them. I hate all four of them so much!"
Kagome felt the rage towards her friends swell in her. She felt the feeling grow inside of her. And his face having that painful expression floated in her mind, fueling the fire. "I can't forgive them Mama. I can't bring myself to forgive them. I know they did it for me but I still can't forgive them."
Mrs. Higurashi patted her daughter's back comfortingly, "Of course, you can't honey. Not now and maybe not ever. No one's asking you to forgive them yet."
"I know," Kagome replied, "It's just..." Kagome broke into sobs again.
…
"I can understand why you're not so happy to see me right now," Izumi's gaze was downcast as she fidgeted nervously with her fingers.
Inuyasha watched her suspiciously. She was doing something weird with her voice. I think she's trying to sound sincere. The very thought sickened Inuyasha to the core.
"I mean I acted pretty inconsiderately out there and I apologize," Izumi didn't look up from her shoes, "I guess you could say that it was because I was so jealous of her that when she did that...regardless, you must be in a lot of pain after that so I regret my outbursts entirely."
Inuyasha yawned before staring up at the ceiling, vaguely wondering how long she was going to try and keep this charade up.
"Now that it's pretty much set that we are going to be spending much of our adult life together, I want to change your impression of me, especially in light of this incident," Izumi continued.
Inuyasha cast her one skeptical, cold glare but she didn't catch it.
"Don't you think that's best?" she asked.
"I think it's best you get out right now," Inuyasha replied, "I don't care where you go so long as you're not here."
Izumi stared up at him in shock and tears began to spill out of her eyes.
Inuyasha scoffed. She's really some sort of actress.
"I know you're hurting right now but," Izumi sobbed, "You've got to hear me out. Unlike...unlike Kagome, I care for you and only you. In other words, I guess I...somewhere along the line...I fell in love with you, Inuyasha."
Inuyasha burst out in cynical laughter. "How gullible do you think I am? I fell in love with you, Inuyasha. Are you for real?" Inuyasha sat up, wiping tears of laughter from his eyes. "You come up here and act out your award-winning performance and you think that's gonna make me throw myself all over you? You pretend to be all kind and meek and delicate...you're just fake. I am really not in the mood for your crap, Izumi. Go home or something."
"Act? Fake?" she gasped, "I spill my heart to you and-"
"Spill your heart to me? It is to laugh," Inuyasha sneered, "Unlike Kagome, I care for you and only you. You really think I was gonna fall for that? With your dozens of boyfriends? You sure have some guts to pull that one out. Besides, I know you well enough to know you love one thing: money."
She stared at him with a hurt expression.
"Look, even if you really did fall in love with me," Inuyasha retorted, "I don't love you at all. So it doesn't change anything."
Izumi felt rage grip her. "And you love that dunderhead of girl?"
"Get out," Inuyasha snapped.
"I'll see to it that you two never grace the same air," Izumi cried, "If it's the last thing I do, I will marry you Inuyasha!"
"You're so melodramatic," Inuyasha remarked as Izumi stormed out of his room, slamming the door behind her, "Who the hell does she think I am?"
Well I hope you don't think Inuyasha was to harsh in this chapter...
