Note: Okay! As some of you can see I was going to update right after the people named answered me. But I swear that sicknesses, my family, and teachers are out to get me. I was stopped from finishing my chapter and then Break came…then my teachers with their HW…I kept being restricted from the comp… and I got really sick twice. Blame life for my late updates:grumbles:
Now to chappy 8!
Still in the mall…:
Kagome had made Inuyasha go with her to another store and sat down Inuyasha once again.
"Hey I thought you said you weren't going to do this again!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Shush, we're in a store you know." Kagome ignored him and went off to the clothes racks. "I'll let you go to a store that you want later."
Inuyasha sighed and sat there in the small metal chair that she had practically forced him to sit on while holding her couple of bags. 'At this rate I'm never going to be able to leave…' He was distracted from his thoughts when he heard a woman clearing her throat. He looked up and saw Kagome holding a couple small bags. "Okay we can go now."
"You're not going to try anything on?" Inuyasha yelled once again, not believing that girls could be so weird.
Kagome just casually took her bags from Inuyasha and added them to the small bags in her hands and started to walk out, "Nope."
"Then why the hell did you make me sit in front of the fitting rooms like a dumbass?" He had his arms thrown up in the air; making it look like he wanted to choke her, which wasn't that far from true.
"Calm down and stop being such a big baby." She reached a short bench in the middle of the mall and sat down, setting the bags next to her. Inuyasha sat down next to her, you could almost see the steam coming out of his ears. "You're such a brat." Kagome stated.
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Am not!"
"Yes, yes you are." Kagome answered back, and before he could say anything else she added, "Anyways, I did tell you that you could pick the next/last store that we go to…"
"Fine. I want to go to…" Inuyasha looked around and then thought a bit. He then remembered that he had wanted to buy a new video game that had just come out and grinned, 'Maybe by taking her to the Gaming store I'll get some payback. She's too girly for that.' "I want to go to the Gaming store down at the other end of the mall." Surprisingly, Kagome just nodded.
"But if we're gonna go over there than you need to carry my bags." She looked over at him then picked up her bags, handing them over to him and getting up.
Inuyasha began to mutter and picked up the shopping bags, wondering why he couldn't just have let her stay at the tree…
At the gaming store:
When they got to store Inuyasha practically threw the bags a Kagome and half-jogged, half-walked in. Kagome shook her head and thought of how much he acted like a small child. As he looked around (a/n: Okay guys, this part is just to add a little more drama to my story but I really don't know much about video games, so if this part seems lame to you...sorry!) she went up to the PS2 games and ran her fingers lightly over the titles. Inuyasha saw this and walked over to her holding a game in his hand. "What are you doing wench?"
Kagome "snapped back" and looked at him, a sad look in her eyes, "Um…nothing…I was just remembering…" She stepped back and then went off to another section of the store. Inuyasha shrugged, 'That girl has some issues…but there was something in her blue eyes that was different.' He shook his head and went off to the line to pay for his game.
As Kagome walked around the store she passed by the set up televisions where people could play game, well, free; or until they got kicked out.
"You cheated!" yelled a little boy, at what seemed his big sister.
"No I didn't! How can I?" his sister answered.
The little boy didn't believe this and…began to cry.
"Oh…I didn't cheat Ricky. I'm sorry." Ricky's older sister hugged the small boy and then walked him over to an easier game that everyone else had abandoned because it was more for little kids. "Here, we'll play this game better!" The little boy nodded in agreement with his big sister as he wiped his tears away with the back of his hand. His sister smiled and kept her arms around him.
Kagome watched all this. Watched as the little boy's eyes lit up as the game started up. "Look sis! I hit the target!"
His sister laughed, "Yeah you did!"
Kagome couldn't take it anymore. That little boy, Ricky, he sounded just like Souta. And the way that his big sis looked over him and played with him and could hug him was too much for her. Large tears formed up in her eyes and she couldn't hold them back, 'Souta…'
Inuyasha was getting his change back when he turned around; just in time to see Kagome let her bags fall to the ground and run out. 'Shit, what happened now?'
"Um sir?" The video guy was holding out his receipt and was looking at Inuyasha expectantly.
"Oh, Sorry about that. Thanks." Inuyasha grabbed the receipt and ran out after Kagome, stuffing the game and money into his large pant pockets. He ran a couple of feet then noticed that he couldn't see her. He sniffed the air and started to run again, noticing her scent.
He found her right outside an entrance off to the side, her cheeks wet with tears. 'Oh man she's crying, I hope it wasn't my fault.' He walked slowly up to her and put his hands lightly on her shoulders. Her eyes were open but she seemed to be staring at nothing in particular. "Kagome…" He shook her lightly but she didn't even blink. "Look, I didn't meant to drag you to that store, I'm sorry."
Still no response.
Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore and picked her up bridal style and ran quickly to her house.
Kagome's house:
Inuyasha twisted the doorknob and was surprised to see that it was unlocked. He opened the door and took Kagome over to her couch and laid her down slowly. 'Aw fuck, she left her bags in the store.' Glancing quickly at Kagome he figured that she would be okay for a little while and sped off once again to the mall to grab her things.
Kagome's POV:
She could feel him and the way he rushed to get her to her house. Of course he was going to take her to her house where else would he go? Even though he didn't think she was looking she could the concern in his eyes. She smiled inwardly, 'I'm glad that he cares…' All of a sudden she received an unwanted flashaback
:Flashback:
"Kagome! Come help!" an eight-year-old Souta yelled out.
"I'm coming! Hold on!" Kagome laughed as she gave her hair one last brush. She had started high school that year but she never let her schoolwork or friends discourage/stop her from being with her little brother. Ever since he had gotten a PlayStation he'd been extremely happy…but he always seemed to need "help" in passing hard levels or abnormally large bosses.
When she walked into the living room, sure enough, Souta was seated in front of their TV. His small hands were clutching the control hard and he was staring at the screen with great concentration. He saw Kagome walk in smiling and sighed, pausing the game. "It won't die Kagome!"
'Hmm…so it's a boss then.' She thought to herself as she reached over her little brother for the control. "All you have to do is…"
In a few minutes Kagome had beaten the "terrible" and "evil" boss and as little Souta had put it. "Yay!" Souta's screech of joy almost deafened Kagome as he pounced on her and hugged her.
Giggling, Kagome returned his hug, "Souta…:giggle:…it was that hard :giggle:…"
Kagome's mother came in just then and smiled at her children. "Kagome! Souta! Dinnertime!"
This brought another screech of joy from Souta and Kagome smiled, rolling her eyes at her mother as they got up and walked to the kitchen.
:End:
She couldn't hold in the pain anymore. 'They didn't deserve it…' Her tears wouldn't stop flowing out of her eyes and she didn't try to stop them. Instead, she curled up and let her body shudder as she squeezed her eyes tight.
Inuyasha:
'I don't understand it. What could have happened to her?' He had already gotten Kagome's bags. The man that had sold him the video game was nice enough to grab the bags and put them in the back so no one would steal them. Inuyasha scoffed when he remembered what the man had said, "It's okay man, I saw that you needed to go get your girlfriend back so…" 'People and their assumptions.' He thought as he reached the house. He opened the door for the second time that day and threw the bags to the side.
When he walked into the living room he saw that Kagome had her back to him and heard her crying loudly. 'I don't know what's better, her staring off into space with silent tears; or her actually moving with loud ones.' He knelt down beside her and gently turned around. She surprised him when she wrapped her arms around his neck and put her head on his chest, still crying but a bit quieter.
"Hey Kagome…"
No answer.
"Um…I got your bags…" He looked down at her and aw her pain so he hugged her tighter.
Abruptly, she sat up and began to breathe slowly, trying to calm herself down. She then wiped her tears away (much as the little boy had done) and swallowed. "Inuyasha…I'm…I'm sorry. This is probably very confusing for you. I didn't mean to drag you into doing all this." She looked to the side, "You should've just left me where I was."
'So she knew where she what was happening?' "Look, Kagome." He turned her face back to him.
'His hands are warm…wait…what?' Kagome snapped herself out of that thought and forced herself to look him directly in the eyes. She gasped quietly when she saw, not only confusion, but also concern and softness.
He continued to talk, "If I wanted to leave you there and be cold-hearted I would've but I didn't just want to leave you there. I knew you needed someone…so I'm here for you." 'I'm not going to leave her here, even if I don't exactly know everything about her.'
Kagome hugged him again for some reason she couldn't explain to herself and sighed as she felt his warmth against her. Inuyasha awkwardly patted her back then pulled away from her a bit to look at her again. "Kagome…what…happened in there…?"
Kagome closed her eyes tightly for a few moments. "If you don't want to it's oka-…"
"No, I'll tell you…It happened a while ago…"
Muahaah! I hope I can get the next chappy up soon:glares at all the things that stopped her from doing it sooner:
