Chapter Ten - The Turning Point

0.O

If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?
If you're not the one then why does my hand fit yours this way?
If you are not mine then why does your heart return my call
if you are not mine would I have the strength to stand at all .

Kagome stood in the black stool, her face beet red. Wiping her sweaty hands in her black dress, Kagome smiled softly at Koga as he sang it front of her. Moments before, the glare of the light blinded her and the stares of the audience embarrassed her, but now everything seemed to disappear as her one-month boyfriend stood before her. 'How sweet. This is defiantly something new.' Kagome mused, relishing her boyfriend's singing.

I never know what the future brings
But I know you are here with me now
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with.

The audience 'awed' as the wolf demon grabbed his girlfriend's hand and swiftly gave her a sweet kiss. Their blue eyes clashed and the raven haired girl gave the boy a quick kiss. The sight was just too romantic.

I don't want to run away but I can't take it, I don't understand
If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am?
Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?

Meanwhile, golden eyes watched in jealousy, and anger. 'That asshole! He just wants all the fucking attention. Serenading my Kagome in front of all these people. Feh, they didn't even fuck yet anyways. Why the hell would I be worried. He's nothing.' Inuyasha thought, assuring himself. Inuyasha glanced at his friends, rolling his eyes as they watched with a smile on their faces.

If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?
If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head?
If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life?
If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?

Kagome looked past her boyfriend, glancing at one person that stood out. Smiling at the familiar silver hair and golden eyes, she lowered her eyes and fumbled with her dress. 'I told you, Inuyasha, I will get over you and I did. Go and kiss Kikyo in front of me, I don't care. I'm through with you. I love Koga now.' Kagome thought, realizing that she has a new found love.

I don't know why you're so far away
But I know that this much is true
We'll make it through
And I hope you are the one I share my life with
And I wish that you could be the one I die with
And I pray in you're the one I build my home with
I hope I love you all my life.

"I love you Kagome Higurashi." Kouga whispered in the microphone, not caring if the whole world heard. "I want to let you know that I would never ever stop loving you. Even if we do separate, I don't think I would ever stop loving you. Happy one-month, baby." Koga smiled, giving his gal a sweet kiss.

The crowd applauded, but the couple didn't even notice or care. "Koga, I love you too.' Kagome cried once they parted. "You can't even describe how much I love you." Kagome sighed, resting her head on Koga's shoulder.

Somewhere, in the back of Koga's mind, guilt started to eat him out.

Kagome giggled as Koga placed kisses on her neck, but then blushed as she noticed her friends staring "Sorry," Kagome mumbled, getting off his lap and climbing back to her own stool.

Sango giggled, waving the apology off. "Girl, forget about it. Today is yours and Koga's night, enjoy it. I'm glad that you two stayed this long." Sango said, smiling.

Miroku agreed with his girl. "It's common for showing affection in public. Why, Sango and I do the same thing! Don't we, Ms. Sango?" Miroku grinned, leering over at Sago. He wrapped an arm around the petit girl , his lips aiming for hers.

Sango made a disgusted look, and punched her boyfriend in the jaw, successfully knocking him out. "I don't think so MIROKU." Sango growled, stressing out his name. "You guys, I have to take this perv. Home. Don't stay out too late, kay? School's tomorrow! Don't be late! Especially YOU, Inuyasha." Sango pointed out, poking the boy hard on the chest. Sango then stood up, waving goodbye as she dragged her boyfriend out the restaurant.

Koga shook his head, snorting. "Well, that's two down. One to go." Koga laughed, his blue eyes twinkling. "Well dog-boy? Isn't it past your bedtime?" Koga taunted, taking a sip of his drink.

Inuyasha growled low in his throat. "Listen shithead, the only reason I fucking came was cuz of Kagome. And no, I have no goddamn bedtime, I have no plan to leave anytime soon. So eat that, motherfucker." Inuyasha cussed, crossing his arms.

'Inuyasha!" Kagome gasped, shocked at his angry words. 'I never heard him cuss like that before.' Kagome thought, worried.

'Stupid son of a bitch. He's just digging a deeper hole to his grave. Kissing Kagome in front of me. Feh. Who the hell does he think he is? Kagome is mine !Inuyasha thought, his possessiveness taking over. But after a few moments, Inuyasha realized what he just thought. 'What the hell is going on with me? Why am I feeling this way?' Inuyasha thought, confused.

Kagome held Koga's hand, as he helped her to her feet. "Inuyasha, I think we're gonna leave. It's getting late." Kagome lied, feeling Koga caress her butt. 'Stop, you prick! Not in front of my best friend and my ex-lover!' Kagome cried.

Inuyasha didn't even glance at them. "Yeah.Okay." Inuyasha replied, noticing the slight change in her scent. 'Don't Kags. Don't lie to me.' Inuyasha thought, saddening. He watched as they waved goodbye and walked hand in hand out the restaurant. He didn't miss their make out session either.

Kagome nervously looked around Koga's room, her face reddening as she spotted Koga come out the bathroom with nothing but a towel. Licking her dry lips, her eyes roamed down his body. Kagome lowered her eyes as she felt a familiar sensation burning in her body. 'God, he knows he's teasing me.' Kagome thought, his face darning as she recognized that playful look in his eyes.

"Kagome, you don't know how much I need you." Koga purred, stalking towards Kagome. When he reached his bed, he dropped the towel, revealing all his glory. "Baby, please be mine tonight." Koga whispered, crawling on top of his girlfriend.

Kagome gulped, her throat suddenly drying. "Koga, baby, of course. You're the only one for me." Kagome agreed, moaning as Koga kissed her gently.

Kagome moaned as Koga kissed her neck one more time that night. " I love you," Kagome whispered, her hands running down his chest. "Tell me that you love me too," Kagome added, her lips grazing his ear.

"Baby, you don't have to tell me twice," Koga commented, his hands roaming around inside her dress. He rubbed her wet panties, purring as he realized that she was hairless. "I love everything about you." Koga groaned, starting to unzip her dress.

Kagome whimpered, lifting her arms so the process of taking her dress off would come out smoothly. Shivering as the cool air breezed through her body, Kagome bit her lip as a hard object was poking her stomach. Kagome stared at Koga's blue eyes through the dim light, and pressed her lips against Koga's once more.

That night, Kagome gave herself up to Koga.

Inuyasha felt numb.

There, in the corner of his room, Inuyasha sat, brooding over Kagome and Koga. What was that sharp pain in his chest when he watched as Koga and Kagome kiss? Inuyasha growled in frustration as an image of Kagome popped into his head. "Why can't I stop thinking about her!" Inuyasha moaned, resting his head on his hand. 'I should be thinking about Kikyo, not her.'

"Inuyasha, here are your--" Izyaoi entered the dim room, holding a basket of clothes. "Inuyasha? Baby? Why are you sitting here in the dark, in the corner of your room?" Izyaoi laughed, turning on the lights. Her frown deepened as her son looked like a mess. "Inuyasha, what's wrong?" whispered, placing the basket on her son's bed.

Inuyasha sighed, looking up at his mother with sad eyes. "I-I don't know. I guess I'm just upset over Kagome and Koga." Inuyasha replied, a growl erupting from his throat, the thought of the two together angering him.

Izyaoi hid a smile, already knowing the problem. "Koga? Kaori's son?" Izyaoi asked. "Those two could make quite the couple." Izyaoi joked, smiling at her son's jealous expression.

Inuyasha growled, not liking that his mom would say that. "Don't play, mother." Inuyasha replied icily.

Izyaoi raised an eyebrow, surprised at her son's comeback. Sighing, she plopped down next to him, and placed her hand on her son's knee. "Inuyasha, what are your feelings toward Kagome?" Izyaoi said seriously.

Inuyasha sighed, slumping his shoulders in defeat. "I-I really don't know. I get so jealous when Koga is there with her." Inuyasha replied, saddening.

Izyaoi smiled. "Honey, maybe you still love her." Izyaoi replied, stroking her son's cheek soothingly.

Inuyasha looked up, his eyes widening. "How do you know? How do you now how I feel?" Inuyasha growled, angry that his mother would even say that. 'She knows I love Kikyo! Why would she even say that?'

"You get that look when you look at her, and you're all possessive and jealous." Izyaoi chuckled, memories flooding her mind when Kagome and Inuyasha were younger. Every time a boy had the courage to ask Kagome out, Inuyasha was always there to scare to poor boy away.

"What look?" Inuyasha asked, his brows furrowing in confusion.

"Those looks where you just want to whisk her away and ravish her. The looks where it says 'you mean the world to me.' The look where it says that she yours and only yours." Izyaoi replied, squeezing her son's knee before getting up and leaving the room. 'Think about this Inuyasha. You don't want to lose your soul mate.' Izyaoi prayed, closing the door.

Inuyasha sat in the corner, his mother's words seeping into his head. "She's right, I still do love her." Inuyasha admitted, slowly pulling out his cell phone. He pounded in some numbers, and sent a text message to Kagome.

'Kagome…'

Kagome groaned, feeling her phone vibrate on the nightstand. Opening her sleepy eyes, she grabbed her phone and blinked at it. 'A text message from Inuyasha?' Kagome thought, waking up. Opening it up, and quickly scanning it through, she gasped and dropped the cell phone.

I think I m still in love with you.
