Nature_Lover101: For the people who are confused about the last chapter…It's snowing in Texas because my friend wanted me to write it that way. She's never seen snow before and lives there.
HorseGal218: That's right yawl! I ain't never seen it, so let me imagine!
Nature_Lover101: She's on an IM with me right now and wanted to talk in the story. There will probably be bits and pieces that will not make much sense that come from her, it's what makes her special and she's the one that gives me a lot of the ideas I have.
Kagome: Also, Inuyasha was only nice because he turned human. He's a baka any other time.
Sango: *Nods*
Inuyasha: Am not you stupid wench!
Miroku: Yeah…that proved your point didn't it?
Kagome: Sit!
Inuyasha: 'Thump!' Would you quit doin' that?
Miroku: Anyway…
Sango: On with the chapter!
Chapter 9: Finished House
I open my eyes to the sun shining in my eyes. "Finally awake? Come on, we need to head back." I look over to see I was still leaning on Inuyasha. I stretch and crawl out of the hole to hear a shot. I quickly duck back in.
"Someone shot at me!" Inuyasha crawls out slowly.
Another shot and he started to growl. "Hobo, shoot again and I'll break your arm!"
At first there was silence, but then a voice calls out. "Inuyasha? Was that you? Mr. Makoto! I found them!" He gets out to punch Hobo…I mean Hojo on the head.
"Was that necessary?"
"Well, Makoto, since he almost shot Kagome's head off and shot me in the shoulder, I think so."
I crawl out and look at his shoulder to see there was a blood stain on his shirt. "Come on, I'll bandage that when we get back."
"Keh, what for?" We all walk back with the four rabbits.
"Kagome!" Sango and Ayame run over to hug me.
"Are you alright?!"
"What happened?!"
"How'd you survive that?!"
I was surrounded and asked so many questions at the same time. "Wait! One at a time!" Kaede comes over and everyone gets quiet.
"Both Kagome and Inuyasha will be let alone for a while. They went through a tough ordeal last night and will need some time to rest. Do not disturb them." She leads me to the wagon and when I go in, I see Inuyasha already there.
I sit next to him and we share a blanket. "Want to explain what happened last night?"
"There's nothing to explain."
"Why don't you trust anyone?"
"It's a long story."
"We've got nothing, but time out here." He sighs and looks at me as if trying to see if he should.
"No one ever accepted me, they all hated me because I'm half-demon. So the only person I had was my mother…she died protecting me from the angry villagers. After that, I knew no one would ever care about me again. I don't trust people easily…because I don't want to get hurt. When I transform, it's a night where I'm completely vulnerable and anyone can take advantage of my weakness to kill me."
I hug him tightly; no one should feel alone. "I'm sorry, Inuyasha." That's when I decided, I'll stay by him no matter what happens. "I'll never hurt you or leave you, promise."
"I don't want no damn sympathy."
"It's not sympathy; it's an offer of friendship."
"Keh,"
"Alright I've decided, every day we'll have a question that we both have to answer. That way we can get to know each other."
"That's stupid."
"Is not!"
"Is too!"
"Alright you two, the house is ready and you both seem well rested enough to argue. So, you can come out now. We're all moving in now. Go into your bedrooms to talk with your roommates to see if the room is also to your liking. Be considerate with your roommates though, it's their room too."
We walk out of the wagon, just now realizing that besides the blanket, it was empty.
"Inuyasha, what's your favorite color?"
"Red, why?"
"Mine's green! See? Not that bad is it?" I walk away from a very confuse hanyou. Having Sango and Ayame as my roommates will be awesome! We're all best friends and know each other well. We had our room plan set before we even got here. They knew where I'd want things and everyone had an equal share in the room. Bits and pieces of our personalities where spread across the room.
"Wow guys! This looks great!" Since my favorite color was green and theirs were pink and red, we had a floral theme going on in the room. We agreed on the pattern of the comforters to bring, the pictures we'd hang up if we got any to hang up on the walls, the color paints we would use for the wood. We have a pink background color with green stems and vines and red flower pedals for the comforters and pillow cases. There was a green trim and a pink base; red outlined the bottom and top of the green trim. It was a very feminine room, that's for sure. There was a huge dresser, each of us would use one drawer for clothing and the top drawer that we'd have left would be for underwear and socks and stuff that we each had a section to use.
The dresser was against the right wall along with Ayame's bed. Sango's bed was along the wall opposite of the door, and mine was opposite of Ayame's. They put up a guitar stand on the wall for me and my guitar was already hanging on it. Sango's weapons were hanging around the room, along with many plants for Ayame.
"So you like it Kagome?"
"Yeah! I love it! Sorry I couldn't help."
"Ah, it's alright. You'll make it up to us by explaining what happened last night…and finding a way to paint for us some time during our stay here."
I laugh and tell them everything…except the fact that Inuyasha turned human.
"Wow, you were lucky Inuyasha was with you."
"Yeah, I was grateful for that. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be here right now."
Sango: That was good details
Miroku: Yeah it was informational
Nature_Lover101: I know, not my best chapter. Busy work day, can't be helped.
Kagome: Who has any ideas for the next chapter?
Inuyasha: Nope
